I would like to have a software that can make it possible to see other computers i have a pocket loox 720
There is a software called PocketLAN that has several network utilities including displaying all computers on a network just like 'Network neighborhood' on a desktop machine.
what i have done is setup iis on a media server, allow browsing to that folder, then connect using http://ipaddress. free and easy option, should work on any windows machine.

Hi -
I have a security camera which I am streaming on a Windows XP SP2 box using
Windows Media Encoder v9.
I have a recently purchased Sprint ppc-6700 phone running the Windows Mobile
5
platform. It's running Windows Media v10.
I can't seem to view the stream on the PPC. The error I get is "Cannot find
the file. The file might have been moved, renamed, or deleted...."
I tried connecting using the url of mms://123.456.789:8080
I also tried to create an ASX file on a web server and have it point to the
above address
with no success.
Both my encoder and PPC device are on the same net with no firewall issues.
When I use a service such as www.beelinetv.com, I can view all of that stuff
OK
on the PPC device.
I can view the encoder output on another XP machine just fine. I am encoding
using WM9 150k video.
Any ideas ? :?:
Any joy
did you get any joy with this..
im getting exactly the same problem with my m5000
supported codecs ?
maybe you can try other codec, such as mpeg4
how about using software live webcamxp??, with this i can view my how webcam on the ppc screen from http://*.*.*.*:8080/pocketpc etc
Has anyone got a solution to this? I've searched various streaming threads on this forum but can't find an answer.
I'm trying to stream a video using Windows Media Encoder 9 on my Windows XP home SP2 PC to my O2 exec via wifi, but I can't open the file with either WMP or TCMP. With WMP I get the error message "Cannot find the file. The file night have been moved, renamed or deleted...". TCMP gives me a similar "Could not open file" error.
I can open the file stream from my laptop on the same wifi network using WMP, so it doesn't seem to be a problem with the streaming. I can connect to the internet via wifi no problem from my Exec. I've tried using both http://<ip address>:<port>/ and mms://<ip address>:<port>/ but with no success. I'm sure there's a simple solution!
Any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated, particularly if it doesn't involve buying/installing any further software (I'm not bothered whether it plays back full screen or not).
Thanks
I know its a verrrry long shot but.....
Code:
--Universal can't connect to Windows Server 2003--
Cant map to a Windows 2003 Server share? Is it also a Domain Controller? Check the server for
start / programs / administraton tools / Domain Controller Security Policy
Then check Local Policies / Security Options :
Microsoft Network Server: Digitally sign communications (always)
change to disabled
I had to use that fix so i could map drives, i could browse to the shares but it just kept looping on the password dialog.
Is it possible that the same style fix could be done on your streaming machine. after all, you do say another xp machine can do it fine
worth a shot! after all those keys look disabled on my xp machine
Had the same problem. With wme9, wm5 and media player you need to add "/*" at the end ot the url. Hope this helps.
Many thanks for the replies. It was the /* at the end of the url that fixed it. Plus I had to use the internal ip address of the PC rather than the machine name or the external ip address of the router, even though the machine name worked fine for the laptop, and it was the external ip address that was showing in the connections tab of media encoder.
Canot connect Mobile PC to Stream (WM Encoder)
OK, as per others advice I tried to connact my WM 6.1 device to my Streaming Media over bith LAn and InterNet address http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xx:8080 with the /* on the end. This is better than without the /* - actually brings up the Mobile player screen - however then get the following message:
Cannot play the file. The file is either corrupted or the plyer does not support the format you are trying to play.
I can get the stream on my PC's though, bith XP and Vista boxes, just will not work on the WM6.1 handheld - all WiFi.
Any suggestions ?????
Has anyone been able to properly communicate with Apple Remote Desktop (3.1) from a Windows Mobile device (Pocket PC)?
I can succesfully communicate with Apple Remote Desktop from my Windows XP desktop PC through the Real VNC client (be it with full resolution hence slow), but none of the Windows Mobile versions (Mocha, Real VNC, vnc viewer etc.) seem to allow connection (even though Apple advertises them) on my Athena running WM6 (original HTC Europe rom)...
I have no problem accessing the Mac through ftp from my mobile device and Real VNC on my Windows Mobile device allows me to perfectly control Windows PCs.
Any suggestions/help?
Or should I switch to VNC on all platforms?
Thanks in advance for your views.
You have to explicitly state on your Mac that VNC applications can access it in your sharing preferences.
I ticked that option, entered a password.
I can access the Mac from WinXP, where I use Real VNC (full color only way to access hence slow), but I can`t seem to do that from WM...
What software are you using on WM to access your Mac?
puTTY. I don't dare try to use a 400MHz device with 64MB of memory and a 320x240 screen to access a 1680x1050 screen. If you are familiar with Terminal, using SSH is a much better way to access your Mac.
In VGA mode it is not super, but I want just to be able to (quickly) do some checking...
I am not really familiar with terminal and SSH on the Mac unfortunately.
If you have any (links to) information or suggestions on settings, software etc., that would be extremely nice.
Thanks for your help so far!!
kind regards,
bins
So what are some good software that I can use to connect to a computer a browser the files on the computer, watch the videos on it and listen to the music on it. Like xp/vista and osx does. What about software that lets me connect to some ones WMP or itunes play list? Thank you.
so anyone?
u can use Resco or something similar to access the shared files from ur pc and play them with ur fav media player
anyother options?
You could also use a VNC client on your pocketpc and a VNC server on the PC. Have a look at ptVNC http://www.parystec.demon.co.uk/pt_vnc2.htm. There are other solutions as well, just Google around...
Nothing like what you see on the Tilt or the Vouge?
Is there some way to make a Windows Mobile 5 device show up as a shared drive on a network (connected to it thru WiFi)?
WM6
On WM6 there is a Network plugin for file explorer. you can use it to map to a shares on your windows machines.
It's an HTC app so have a look on the CAB apps area.
It's ace!
Also a Domain Enroll app, I haven't tried yet but I'll get a virtual PC up and give it a shot..
Hi Guys,
After wasting a complete day on all of the different vnc and rdp programmes, trying to control my desktop computer THROUGH the internet WITH my pocket pc (HTC Diamond 2) I thought i'd just ask:
I won't get it to work, and I can't help but think that it's just a lame little thing I've forgotten. Nothing will connect. Logmein and other server services show me nothing. Logmein in particular only shows me a white screen when I try to login to my computer, nothing else...reloading the page doesn't help. The external desktop controller that came with my phone won't connect, due to reasons (the computer is not on for instance) I'm sure are not true.
I have a HTC diamond 2 pocket pc running WM6.1 and network compact frame (latest update) installed (3.5 I think it was.)
My computer runs vista 32bits and I've tried numerous servers and clients but nothing seems to work...
Just a few hours ago I though it might be the fact that my ip ain't static. So I've made a static IP using the portforward.com description for my thomson speedtouch 780 router modem. Tried everything again. nothing...
the only thing I can think of is that my proxy is screwing up all my attempts to connect my two most precious devices through the internet...but shouldn't logmein have passed those settings? (i remember pressing the "don't block" button when windows firewall asked me)
Top of that I've googled my *ss of searching for different kinds of clients, software, programmes and others, usualy being redirected to this forum. I even tried the bible thread about networking and everything, though my mind refused to read the whole thing extremely thoroughly...
To make my request and question very clear:
I want a program that can remotely access my desktop pc through my diamond 2 ppc, mainly for accesing and downloading files and folders I might need for school. Ofcourse full control for audio (so I can start music from my living room) would be nice, but it's not mandatory...
I'm running wm6.1 and have jbed installed on my ppc, and running windows vista 32bits on my desktop computer. I have a static IP and a port setup through my router modem on port 1986.
I've been searching for almost 20 hours with 1 lunchbreak in between....can anyone help me to an easy solution (including a step to step guide)?
thx in advance...
oh yeah, I think i've enabled the "Let other users control my pc" button in the external dekstop control options for vista, but most of the guides and FAQ's say there's another button. -one saying "let other people help me solve issues with my computer by controlling my desktop"
-one saying "let other people connect to my computer, doing whatever the hell they want" (not the actual sentence btw )
vista only shows me the first one, and I have it checked.....
Noone knows anything about this?
I'm also trying to look for a rdp server for vista, but for now it seems non-existent...tried ultravnc, and allthough it works when my diamond2 is connected through USB, as soon as I disconnect my ppc from the PC, it freezes. I did a reboot and tried without usb connected.....nothing....couldnt connect.
the only vnc viewer working on my ppc right now is the one from mocha or mochia.....but it's a trial version. other viewers won't work....
anyone?
LogMeIn with Diamond2 - problem
Hi, I used to be able to use LogMeIn in my old PDA running on WM5. But now after i've gotten HTC Diamond2, I'm unable use my remote access software anymore...
I've gotten my friend to try using his HTC Touch HD and it work too for LogMeIn.
A quick check reveal that our IE could be slightly different version.
Did you have any solution yet?
"Vista 32 bits" is unfortunately not very descriptive. What version is it? Not all versions include Terminal Services.
By static ip, do you mean that your external interface IP is static or that the IP your PC might have on an internal network is static? There's a HUGE difference!
You need port 3389 forwarded to your PC from your router. Enter your external IP address in the RDP client and it will get forwarded properly. Hell, I've got 3389 forwarded to a VM I'm running on my PC and it works great.
Diamond 2 can use LogMeIn
Finally got my HTC Touch Diamond 2 (Topaz) to use LogMeIn. My friend who uses Touch HD and can use LogMeIn easily...
I guess the IE in Diamond 2 is not Pocket IE (PIE).
Procedure:
1) I use this software to toggle IE6 to PIE.
http://discussion.treocentral.com/treo-pro/177752-toggle-between-pie-ie6-free-app-cab-file.html
2) Login to LogMeIn PDA
https://secure.logmein.com/pda
3) Follow normal LogMeIn procedures...
Happy LogMeIn!!!
I use Logmein's Hamachi (that is a VPN software) that give me a direct p2p connection between my HTC fuze any my computer. Then i use remote desktop and use the ip hamachi provides and it work excellent.
PS you need at add you PPC hamachi ip in you firewall
vnc is what I would use it's a good general solution to connect
anything with anything mac, linux , windows you name it and it's free
Can anyone tell me or point me to a How to for dummies on how to configure and use Remote desktop on Windows 7 and my HD2?
Thanks.
Are you trying to connect to W7 directly via Remote Desktop from HD2, or did you mean something else?
Remote Desktop HOST is only included in the Professional, Business, or Ultimate versions of Windows. Home editions do not have Remote Desktop HOST, client only.
1. Activate the Remote Desktop feature in Windows 7... Click here for a website that tells you how, easy.
2. You need to make sure any routers/firewalls (not W7) allow incomming traffic to your W7 box on port 3389 (TCP). Click here for article on doing this.
3. Once all that is done you should be able to access your W7 box via RDP, if done correctly, from your HD2. Just run Remote Desktop (HD2) and put in the IP for your external connection of your router. If you don't know your IP, click here to find out. Your IP may change randomly, most ISP do this unless you have a static IP from them. You'll also need to enter your username and password.
This was a real simple outline of how to do this, in no way am I responsible for anything that may happen as a result of you following this. There are many possible issues that may interfere with this that I didn't go over, ISP blocking etc.
There are definate security concerns and procedures that one should also follow, however, this post isn't the place to discuss all of that. Having an exposed RDP port without any security is a mistake and I do not recommend it.
Hope that helps.
I'm trying to use Remote Desktop on my HD2 to connect to my home PC with Windows 7.
same problem and i am blocking no ports on my routers and my firewalls are all turned off on the local machines
*** edit *** triedit on a win 7 ultimate machine and it worked. Seems that even if you enable remote desktop on win 7 home premium etc it wont work. Had to be ultimate for me. Strange they even put the option in lesser editions.
Most problems with RDP are on the computer side. Try to connect to that computer from other computer, when it works, start trying using phone.
found a hack. supposidly this works http://www.mediafire.com/?0qznddamqkz unzip and run as administrator on your home premium machine
testing it out now ...
As I wrote, Home versions do not support Remote Desktop HOST. Yes, there is a hack - never tried it though as I run either Enterprise or Ultimate versions of Windows 7.
