hi
yuo need Resco Explorer 2005
http://www.resco.net/pocketpc/explorer/default.asp
My Network --> map drive --> "Shared Folder on your PC " --> share
P.S. folder sharing must be enabled on your PC
cheers for the advice, but that program seemed to crash my unit alot and when i tried removing it, the "remove programs" function would not work so i had to do a hard reset. Also i had to make my d: drive shared on my network which means other people can view it which i dont want and also once i got the videos playing they would stop evey 5 seconds or so to load.
Can you suggest any other ways!

The videos will be stopping (buffering) every 5 secs because either your vids are too big and not compressed enough, or, you wifi network is too slow (802b). I am running my S200 exactly as Duri suggests above and it works fine. As far as I'm aware you have to have a shared folder on your pc otherwise there is no way to access the files on your pc. If Resco is not working for you then there are a few other similar applications that achieve the same. I can't remember them off the top of my head (perhaps someone else can 8) ) but a quick search should come up trumps!
Resco File Explorer crashed alot for me too, and wouldn't uninstall either. I am recovering from a hard boot, and discovering sprite backup (or any other backup method) isnt too helpful. Try Orb. It works great for me. WiFi or EDGE. www.orb.com
Not sure how secure it is, but it works well!
You can try Pocket Lan.
You aint need nothing. Just make network(say WIFI or luettoth with your PC and check for the ip addresses to reside under same subnet mask, and voila - in yout TCPMP in the pathway write \\{YOUR PC NAME}. Of course, replace {YOUR PC NAME} with your PC name(you've given one when you installed windows, viewable under System properties tab in control panel of windows xp) and, as long as you have folders shared on your PC, TCPMP will see them. Bingo! :lol:

Hi,
I'm trying this for audio streaming (.mp3) with an Asus WL-HDD as source, it's 802g so should be fast enough, however I get a buffering pause every few seconds.
Resco Explorer works fine, but is there a player that would do the buffering and then play without interruptions?
Windows Media Player doesn't like the network files, gives me errors like "Wrong Parameter"
Thanks

Dear all,
Just wonder whether we can browse specific folder or file located in the local PC harddrive from our PPC. To be specific, for example, can I open a movie player in my XDA and browse for a specific movie file located in my desktop so that I can watch the whole movie through my PPC.
I have also tried accessing the shared file using Bluetooth connection, but when I locate the movie file, the whole file appears to be transferring (copying) to my ppc local drive.
Any comments please!
You want streaming..
Look into streaming servers..
I would personally recomend darwin..
I've streamed music to my PDA over wifi, haven't tried video. Used Windows Media Encoder
http://www.jakeludington.com/archives/000217.html
pocketlan
http://www.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=2825
Network utility for PPC 2002/2003.Browse,map multiple network share folders,printers,open mp3,movie on network with WiFi 802.11b,IP Config,Ping, IP Renew, Wake on LAN
if you can get tcp/ip access via bluetooth then use pocketlan to map the shared drives on your pc, then you can use fileexplorer (new icon called network) and then click on the files/playlists, they will then stream across instead of downloading!
dont try and stream movies at high resolution, it just wont work...well
streaming options (webserver based)
www.netjuke.org
If you want a free solution, try GSfinder+. It also has the option to map network drives into \Network. GSfinder+ can be found here: http://www.geocities.jp/todamitsu2004/GSFinderE.htm. It works great with BetaPlayer at least (I use it for [email protected] mpeg4-recordings, 200kbps for the video, 128kbps for the sound).

Can I revert back to original state after hard reset? or even soft reset? Can I still activesync to pc using bt even with this new driver? shall I change settings? How is video streaming performance? acceptable even with files as large as 500 mb?
when you hardreset all data is lost
you can restore your backup from activesync if you made one
softreset is just like reboot on a pc it dont do anything
about streaming then the idear is that you dont download all at once but download as you need to display it and then download a bit more and..........
so it should not matter how large the file you are streaming is

streaming is not about the overall size of the file,
it depends on the bitrate of the file adn the bandwidth of the line (bluetooth only bout 1mbps???)
Guys, thank you for your reply. I mean after installing the Widcomm BT driver, will I still be able to activesync using BT? I'm currently doing this using the included BT driver.

I have recently purchased an o2 xda mini s, and have been browsing through this site for about a week. been very impressed. i have a question for you - is there anyway of accessing my computer through the wireless lan? EG accessing the computer hard drive, and playing a film on the xda. thanks ben
Yes there is but I'm not sure how to do it on a "Vanilla" WM5 machine. I use Resco Explorer which is a commercial application but allows you to move the "Network" folder below "My Device" and connect to shared drives. These shared drives over the network (GPRS / WiFi / USB Active Sync etc) will then show up in ANY program which has a file browser.
I'm sure there is a way of doing it on a plain machine but Resco Explorer is so much easier and nicer for any kind of file manipulation....
nice one, im looking into it now
ok iv got resco, and im connected. i can see the network places, and i can acess my shared folder, but when i try to open a music file, media player opens and says the parameter is incorrect? anyone know what this means?!
You're right you know!
This is the only app on my device that has this problem (Well no surprises there seeing as it's MS s/w!)
I am using both Pocket Music and TCPMP (Free!) for video / music (TCPMP does both) and neither have that problem over the network.
Also try MortPlayer as that is another excellent skinnable player for FREE....
TCMP will access shared folders/files. Or should that be \\computer\shared_folder\media.files It works pretty well over wifi for me. If you are happy to create your playlist on your pc and stream to the PocketPC then Microsoft media encoder will do the job. I'm just looking into Orb www.orb.com which should allow me to view/listen to my media anywhere I have access to the internet on my Wizard.
Hope this helps,
Al
thats great, got tcpmp running really smooth, even without cutting the resolutions down. im very impressed. is there a way to make tcpmp the default application? iv always had symbian phones uptil now-which are considerably more stable, but not quite as manipulative iv noticed.
one other thing, is i had a prog for my symbian device that put my desktop up on the screen and gave me total control of the pc with it, do u kno of another app that will do this on ppc? thanks so much!

thats great thanks!
Did some searching and found this older thread.
Basically, I was wondering if any body knows of a free prog, or reg hack, to make the network folder visible and then allow mapping the network drive?
I found an older prog caller NetRunner, from a Spanish site. It works on my older wm2003 devices (though it always asks for my pass work even if I tell it to save it) And it will work on my MDA, but I can only access the network drive through net runner. It won't show up in file explorer.
So any ideas? Thanks
Ok, Never mind.... I feel sheepish!
I have GSfinder installed and it allows you to show the network folder and to map the drive................
One question about it though- even time I soft power down the phone and turn it back on and try to browse my network drive it keeps asking for my password. Even if I tell it to save it..any way to fix this?
Thanks

This usually means that the music file type is not supported by windows media player. ie: asx,m3u,etc. In file explorer, does the music file you're trying to play have the wmp icon, or some other player icon beside it?
I found a version of a DLNA server for a Samsung omina 2, messed around a bit with it and it works on my HD2, connecting from Windows7.
Although I'm sure the server app allows you to conf. the setting via http I can't get into this. When you fire up the server it creates an html file to access the setting but I can't get the browser to connect. (hopefully someone my have better luck)
Anyway I have configured it manually in the samsung-mediaserver.ini file and moded the network adaptor list for the HD2.
Just copy it to your storage card and launch the SamsungMediaServer.exe.
It is set up to get the media from \Storage Card\My Document
My Pictures
My Videos
My Music.
Mark..
Dear Mcc05,
Thanks for the efforts. May i kindly request if you can give us brief info on how to connect from win7 to hd2 with this DLNA server? Thanks in advance...
Best Regards
Copy the contents of the zip file in post 1 to your phone.

if you need to change the location of your media edit the samsung-mediaserver.ini file in the DLNA directory.
Once on your phone simply use file explorer to launch the samsungmediaserver.exe.
Now to get it seen under windows 7, make sure you wi-fi is on and your phone is connected to the same network as your win7 pc.
If so simply go to start/network and you should see you hd2 in the list of media devices, click on it and it sholud open WMP as show the content of your media library on your phone.
Hope that helps.

Are you still using this program? I would like a DLNA server for my TP2. I think everyone has forgotten about DLNA on a windows mobile phone.
Thanks - works well. Needed to adjust the ini file but instructions provided are helpful.
Nice find!
Now, how do you disable it? I extracted the files, started samsungmediaserver.exe, but then I got nothing on the screen. I found that a process called samsungmediaserver was running (and taking 11-14 % CPU), but I couldn't kill it using that particular task manager (the default HTC task manager).
I was just going to check what the application looks like, and I didn't have WiFi turned on on the phone, and neither a Win7 PC available to check if I could connect to the phone.
Should there be some kind of a GUI on the app?
What about a Windows Mobile DLNA client?
I'd like to access my media served by a Windows 7 PC.
Thank You,
Bye

grEEtZ,

Good app but I haven't worked out either how to switch it off - once enabled it keeps the wifi & CPU active and starts chewing through the battery.
haven't tried it or anything - but a soft reset should kill the app?
PocketNow did a brief write-up & review of this app, including a basic "How to:" guide.

The samsung-config.html is referring to h t t p://x.x.x.x/setup.htm.
Any change to obtain this setup.htm? I will do a search on an Omnia device.
Thanks
Does anyone have any idea how to get this to work with the xbox 360. It does not pick up the HD2. My archos 5 media tablet does and it streams great just not the Xbox.
Cheers
Hello
I don't know for the xbox 360.
I've got a problem : that's work but the photo quality is very poor when i stream the photo with this software.

I test it with a popcorn a110.
Regards
I will do a research too for the html connect. Possible some know how what i have get from the wifi remote app can help.
This is Brilliant i can stream music movies to my tv via wdtvlive. anybody know a way to use it as a client, ive got two nas drives and i cant get the HD2 to connect to any of them i can see them on the network ping them but cannot access them, but one has a dlna server. much apreciated.
Hi.
First time using this apps was correct and normally. I saw the HD2 icon on network page on PC. But after then , the icon's name changed to
SamsungMobileServer(HTC39) and can't access to my files.
I mean the apps worked correctly just for the first time.
Any help?
Thanks.
Just use desire hd roms ,dlna works perfect

nice work
I purchased a Lacinema Classic hd, (cheap nas drive), and i have it connected to my home network. Can anyone tell me how to stream video from it to my hd2? if it is possible.
any help appreciated

Hiya
I connected my HD2 via WiFi to router and i can stream movies from my pc (with Win XP, connected to router with cable) to my phone without problem, they runs smoothly and I watch them in coreplayer, its ok for me, so maybe try something lika that, good luck
yeah thats what i want to do but without using the pc. It must be possible to stream the content straight to my phone just dont know how.
i am not personally experienced with "NAS drives"...but i've always assumed these drives would be available to other network machines/devices as shared folders, accessible from windows using the "\\MACHINE\SHARE_NAME" syntax.
please verify my assumption. if such is the case, then look for "schap's htc network plugin" and download and install it. this little tool will let you map shared network folders onto the \Network folder on your HD2. once the mapping is complete, all applications on your device will be able to see and use the files on the shared folder as if these files are on your storage card. so you can then fire up coreplayer or pocket player or what have you and enjoy!
Ok. I have a wifi network at home, and attached to that I have a WDmybook Network storage device that all of my laptops and desktop get movies and mp3's from. I want to be able to view avi's over my wireless network on my HD2. I AM able to browse the network and SEE the media files in the file system, BUT I cannot play them. I just upgraded my handset from HTC-SHadow and was hoping with winmo 6.5 this could be done.. also, it would be cool if I could watch my DVD's that I have ripped and stored on the NAS as well.. that would be awesome..
thank so much in advance..
I Have the same question, I also use SamsungMedia without sucess. Any idea ?
The solution is TCPMP
Google TCPMP, I would post a link, but I am new and this system does not allow it..
TCPMP is a WinMO app that plays meda over a wireless LAN. Just install the cab, then open it.. you can find it installed in the Start Menu, then click the + sign to open the file browser, drill down through your network and click the file and enjoy.
If you are browsing over your wifi LAN, you must use UNC path
\\device-name\folder\video.avi
SO in my scerario, I do this
\\WD-MYBOOK\video\video10.avi
The cool thing is that once you close TCPMP, and you open it back uip later, it opens in the same directory you were in before.
My needs have been satisfied.
