Iss there any free Tv remote app for your Wizad that can make the IR beam to a universal remote for your tv??? i know there are ones have to pay for but i was wonderin=g if there was a good free 1 out there
I know you want free... but I use Novii Remote and it is hands down awesome. It's seriously worth the money.
u cant just upp it for me ? and give me the serial # man....please?
if you want to steal the program then search peer to peer networks, or google for cracks, do not make posts on this board looking for cracks
lol does this forum look as warez-forum?! wtf man.

amazing what you can accomplish when you search the world wide web... i seem to have found an unlimited trial version, 4.1 to be exact, however the ir range with the wizard apparently sucks, and the program eats up lots of resources... so i deleted it

Since when is giving a gift stealing???? Do you not think that there prevails a wee bit too much paranoia as propagated by software developers???
As far as I am concerned, giving someone software with the registration key constitutes a gift and not stealing, provided the person giving it paid for it. Does that make sense?
Incidentally, philinhot did ask for a FREE remote app did he not? Then along comes good samaritan gldrush98 and suggests one that costs money!!!
Come now guys, let's not get too paranoid about this.
Great forum.

well did the programmer put in the EULA that you could gift your key away? doubt it
he did ask for a freebie, then someone informed of some good payware... then philnot asked for the key...
this isnt a warez board, most of the people on this board are developers.. and i am sure the ones that develop software and sell for a price wouldnt be happy about having their software stolen... im not saying i dont do it myself, i have the knowledge on where to search to find what i need, but i dont post crap like that on this board, this isnt the place for it, its disrespectful to the dev's on this site, and its NOT what this site is intended for...
if philnhot101 would have never asked for the key in public then this conversation never would have happened...
Ur right about the Wizard's IR range - I tried Novii, it works perfectly, but the Wizard's poor IR range lets it down and renders it useless

A quick warning: warez, serial numbers etc. will be moderated out at once.
I use novii, it works fairly well. I use it for my TV, Macbook Pro, Comcast cablebox and Xbox 360.
The range varies between each one. Surprisingly, the cheapest electronic I have is my tv which is a 27" Apex, which I can change channels/volume from up to 7 feet away. My macbook is also fairly good.
The others, not so good. My cablebox is only about 5 feet away. The Xbox varies for some reason. Sometimes I hit it from about 6 feet away, sometimes I can't even turn it on from 3 feet away.
Just wondering, but does Novii come with IR profiles pre-installed? It'd be nice if I could use it for my 360 since I really don't feel like buying a $30 remote just for the heck of it.

Hey Mark, give this program another shot. While the range on the IR does suck, Novii has worked with Texas Instr to add drivers that (somehow) boost the IR range for this prog. No kidding, I was able to control TV, DVD and Tivo from across the room. Only problem is the width of the beam is horrible, so you have to point your wizard directly at the IR receiver, but could still be useful for some folks out there.
West87, yes it does include preloaded profiles for many components--My Samsung DVD player, Philips TV and Tivo all worked with the built-in profiles. 500 more can be downloaded from their website as well.

Well, to be completely honest, I was using a trial of the 4.0 pre-release version, not 4.1. That may have something to do with it as well...I'll try looking for a trial of 4.1 or 4.2 and see if its any better/worse.

i obtained 4.2 from their site, the hacked version i found was 4.1, both yielded the same results
i dont want to take sides but its not so much stealing its more breaking the terms of copyright. Most peices of software are licensed for 1 machine only so even if someone gives u the software and the legit key then thats break copyright law so its a type of theft. If someone had an application for remote control etc and the terms of the licence didn't specifiy the number of machines it had to run on then that would be fine. Sorry to be a pain just wanted to clear that up

Hi!
I have just seen this amazing program.
http://www.smithmicro.com/default.tpl?group=product_full&sku=QLMCWXX
To see photo, video and play music.
Bad news, we have to pay if we want to see it.
I am searching but...no free?
Do you like??
I want it!! free, of course.
$30? LOL
I'll wait until someone on this site codes a clone for free.
Nice stuff though.... but not nice enough to shell out $30.
well, you should brake into a car or someone's house and steal their phones. maybe someone has it on their device....

Maybe its because they don't want people to rip off their product without paying for it.

i don't know about this "revue software" and the description of what it does is not very clear to me, but i have tested another tool that does the same thing (i suppose. i'm french so my english is not perfect) named trakax on a htc vox and it seemed fairly good for a slow device (200 cpu) and non-tactile.
it should be very cool on a decent pdaphone with good cpu.
go here : http://www.trakax.com/software/mobile/
it costs 30 again, but you have a free demo to test it.

I agree, it may be difficult, but when you see someone asking for a copy of a retail piece of software on here, insisting they have it for free, (as if that's a right), then find a near identical request on a warez site asking for the crack for the same software, its not difficult to see where that activity would lead to if we all took that stance.
WB
I don't have a problem paying for the apps that we use on our devices and i'm willing to pay a whole helluva' lot more but we should @ least have the trial option to see if it's worth it or even if its compatible with our devices. Most developers give you that trial because they stand by their product and they know it'll sell itself once the word gets out, so maybe them not giving a trial offer says something about their product. Just my opinion.
I've done trials of and loved:
Resco Exlorer
Memmaid
AEButton
Ultimate Launcher
Vito Screen Capture
Phone Weaver
...And paid for:
Resco
Memaid
AEButton
UL
Vito
Phone Weaver
It wouldn't even occur to me to use a cracked copy. Weird since I've used warez for some windows PC software, but being on a forum like this you see how the programmers are good people, just like me (only smarter) and it puts a face to the theft and I wouldn't consider doing it. Now I don't do cracked stuff for PC software either. I guess its part of growing up.
Anyway, I think there are a lot of ppl like me that if they like a trial they will be HAPPY to buy it.
I have just found this video!
Hi
I found a video of Revue.
It seems to be fantastic even with an application to manage the files with the PC!
http://my.smithmicro.com/wireless/revue/Revue324_121807_OffLn.wmv
I want to test this program for my HTC Touch, but I can´t download it from anywhere.
Anyone has this program?
Can you tell me if it is fast and useful?
Anyone knows where can I download Revue?
Thank YOU ALL
I just took a quick glance at the site you listed and looks like something I used to use on my Palm, I think you can use this for free, don't completely remember, but know I never paid for it. I remember now, you have to keep your pc online and you can access it for free, think that was the deal, and you had to pay to store your files online to access them while your pc was offline.
Anyway to the point its Avvenu, check it out.

So is this basically streaming media from your computer but with lots of organization options?
How is it not like Orb?
It is a finger friendly software just like iphone to see media on our pocketpc.
The android app, CompareAnywhere, will use your phone's camera to read a barcode on any item you may find in a store, then does a price comparison on other retail stores or online stores.
Is there any WM6.1 apps out there that does this too?
hmmm...
i was wondering the same thing after i saw the commercial, and did some research on the dream. that would be a cool app for my vogue. im going to do some more research to see if we can make it happen.
i have someting like that for the vouge
what exactly is it that u have? wat does it allow u to do?
do a search for iNigma reader
Never mind I attached it for you...
that app doesn't do anything but download other programs if they have a barcode.... unless I'm doing something wrong

This only scans 2D bar codes (sema codes). The bar code on products are all 1D.
Thanks anyway...
this would be a great app and i've been looking for something like it too. found one close, but you have to enter upc manually. google can already do that. good luck!
I might be interested in writing an application like this for Java micro edition. I thought about doing something like this for Android but was discouraged when I found that there was already someone doing it.
If I wrote this, I would develop it in such a way that it could be run on any J2ME compliant device.
Who'd be interested if it were offered free of cost?
Who'd be interested if it were not free?

Not quite... scanlife appears to only support 2D codes (semacode, EZcode, etc), and it just simply takes you to the web site that this code contains (provided that it is indeed a web site).
What I'm looking for is a scanner for 1D barcodes, encoded in UPC-A (vertical lines with numbers at the bottom).
I want something that takes these UPC barcodes and have the program automatically search Amazon or other online retailers for price comparisons. So if I go to a local Best Buy and see a router on sale, I can simply scan the barcode at the back, and see if there's another online retailer that have it for cheaper.
So far, I only see Android with this capability (they have 2 apps that does this actually).
Thanks for keeping an eye out though.
1D Barcode Lookup
I have this running on my Touch Pro and it's been pretty accurate with the barcodes of the things on my desk (kleenex box, empty coffee can). I haven't tried it "in the field" yet.

TouchPro has 3.2 megapixel AF
Vogue has a 2.0MP (no info on AF, but I think it is fixed focus...)
I could not get barcodes recognized with barcorama, however I only tried with one UPC sticker and not under the best light conditions.
If anyone else gets it work, let us know
Hey xDarKnighTx,
Microsoft worked on that concept a while ago and stopped further development.
Just google "AURA" with the words barcode.
I don't know much more about it, although some discussions relating to AURA seem promising.

I started a thread a few months ago concerning a proprietary video player that Sony used for their Location Free Player devices. Well...
The software code has now been moved to open source status and is free for full linux development. I'm hoping I can convince one of you savvy developers to whip up the player so it can run on either Android or a full linux OS (I use Ubuntu). I'm sure it's a gold mine for tons of other video streaming applications that could potentially run on our devices.
The link to the open source code can be found here along with other Sony open projects.
http://products.sel.sony.com/opensource/
Location Free TV is the program I'm specifically talking about. I believe the current version is LFA-PC30. If you would like to read more on this device/player you can check the wiki at:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LocationFree_Player
Let me know if anyone has any questions, I very eager to see if this is possible. If I could stream video from my Location Free Player Base I to either my android device or Ubuntu Netbook I would be very very pleased. If a dev is serious I would be more than happy to have them test on my base station. PM or email me if you're interested!
Also, please move to the correct thread if this is in the incorrect area.
agreed!
I too would love to see more on this, my locationfree box could get so much more use.
So a sony base unit (hardware) is needed to try this right
If someone is working on this, and needs a connection to a base station to test ( I have the last version that came out LF-V30 ) message me and I'll send you the adress to connect to my station and the password
Would
Love to see this on Android. This would give new life to my Location Free Box. If not then I may have to move to Sling Player although I would like to stay with Sony.

This makes me sad, just pay the developer rather than undermine his work. Developers are the reason we are continually able to do brand new exciting things with our Tablets and practices like this would encourage me to take my work elsewhere...

Third, it's $1.65. I know, hella expensive. I wish the internet had this thing, it would let you search for things on the internet... Does anyone know where I can Google this idea of a website to search for things on the interwebs???

Indeed it works. It's an extremely easy setup to change the PS3 controller's MAC address to point to the Xoom. It works quite well, but I do not see much use for it really. There aren't many major games that I would use it on. Possibly the Zenonia series, but I've been done with them for awhile now since I beat them so many times.
Word of advice though. It's a good idea if you have a spare PS3 controller that you don't ever use. Reason being: This setup changes your controller's MAC address, and it will need to be re-synced with the PS3 through the USB cable if you ever want to use it there again. Just a useful heads up if you are a frequent PS3 gamer as myself.
i have a ps3 controller and no ps3
use it connected with USB HOST connection and with fpse for playing resident evil - was fairly impressed with that - but wireless connection would be better obviously

If I was going to try and do an equivalent to the Logitech Harmony than this app is going to be your best bet imo:
Touchsquid Pro
Has full S4 support. It will do way more than any other remote app and let you set up macros, complex switching, and customizable layout. They offer a low priced trial as well to test it out.
I thought ten dollars was expensive for an app, but fifty?! I've seen more expensive stuff in the app store when I had an iPhone. I might have seen GPS programs that were more expensive on the android side. Still, I don't want the app bad enough to pay fifty bucks for it.

You have to put it in perspective. If you have a tablet with IR and pay the $50 for the app it will turn that tablet into a remote that normally you would have to pay $200 - $500 for, maybe more. I paid $149 for my refurbed Harmony One remote and the app paired with a compatible device will do more. Only thing it would be lacking is RF capability.
And it can't learn on s4's because they don't have an ir receiver.
I'm loving the $10 app. It saves every device you set up and allows you to build custom composite remotes using pieces from multiple devices. It has macros but I have yet to try it.
As far as i am concerned just the wow factor of being able to change the channel in a bar while a isheep scratches his head makes it all worth it

It is possible that developer can use front/rear camera to read IR remote and it can be learn. Look this app name 'Tester IR Remote Control"
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.inforbit.remotecontrol
Someone will figure it out to put that feature in IR app.
Edited:
Learned that use your camera into negative effect, then you will see infrared light.
I don't know about this phone but most cameras have ir filters on the lens. I might be wrong but I highly doubt a camera could be used instead of an ir receiver. Cameras are set up to be used in the visual light spectrum, not above or below the frequency spectrum.
