Not a specific Wizard Program, but thats the phone i tired this on and its cool.
I saw the article on another website (coolsmartphone.com) and though, hmmm sounds good, but i bet it ends up being rubbish. So i downloaded the software, installed it on my computer, set up and account and then went to the URL provided by the software.
Had a quick look around, and within 2 minites was streaming BBC News 24 direct to my phone... FULL SCREEN
This software does everything it says and does it well, i would recommend it to anyone.
So now i will be recording my TV on my pc and streaming it to where ever i can get on a wireless netowrk, mostly at work, hehe
Hope you all enjoy this, i know i will be.

Note that if you have a TV tuner on your computer, you can also stream live TV. And Tivo users can stream saved shows. Not to mention photos and music. It automatically adjust to your bandwidth. Whether watching at work (breaks only) or on my Wizard.

For steaming live TV u must live in the US. It doesn't know any other channels/listings.
It can also stream MCE recorded TV and of course stream audio. I needed to use TCPMP however since WMP10 keeps skipping to the next song in a playlist after 20 seconds.
Best part of it all: it re-encodes your audio/video base on the bandwidth your using at the moment. So even streaming through GPRS works, although the quality ain't that good of course.
Great program. Wouldn't wanna live without it

I stand corrected

Also, if u go into the settings u can specify custom TV Feeds, so look for a Internet TV site and grab some of there feeds.
Great bit of kit, and its great showing off to your mates, having MTV on your phone... GO ORB

it works doesn't it? , framerate is ok, buffering fast/limited, installed on home PC works ok
love the webcam option [allows me to look into my study. while at work/on the road]

Actually, it doesn't. I was unable to stream media for some reason port 80 was inaccessable. I don't run skype and I made a firewall rule to allow incoming and outgoing TCP/UDP for port 80. No go.
Regardless, it did slow down my 3.2ghz laptop with 1GB RAM.

Try moving it to port 8080. My cable provider blocks port 80, claiming that they do it to protect us from codered.

Hi just started watching film etc from here on pc how / what can i use to
succesfully stream on trinity over wifi any help would be gratefull, tried one or two apps but no joy

windows media player streams over wifi fine, just needs to be a file WMP supports

Have you tried Windows Media Encoder? Used to use it on an old WM device to stream audio but I think it'll do video too.

sorry forgot the link i wanna watch movies & cartoons etc from here but not working correctly. its a brilliant site anyone want to check it out and give us some feedback would be cool, in the meantime I'll try stuff listed above
Many thanks

Live streaming FROM Hermes ??

OK, I did search thru Google & didn't see any thread about live streaming from Hermes( besides this ones & alike: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=320573 , http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=288857 )
Is there any application out there to use Hermes as live video cam to stream video(using 3G/Wi-Fi) directly from Hermes itself without using a PC? Basically u'd be able to 'telecast' in real time... I guess, then it'll need something like pocket Y! msngr(if there's any, "PPC-Skype" don't have any options to carry video) or similar to carry live video streaming out...
Does Windows Live for WM6 have an option to carry vids?
Any thoughts/help is highly appreciated

You mean 2 people w/ Hermes on a video chat? That would be interesting, isnt that what the video dialer is for? I want to know if something like this works..

The Hermes doesn't have anything approaching sufficient hardware to be able to capture AND encode AND broadcast in realtime, or even anything approaching that... The only reason things like CoolCamera work is because the PC's doing half the work, the phone's just passing a raw stream via its AS connection.
Plus, with the majority of 3G networks in the world today, you'd have to connect the device to some kind of third-party broadcasting node, because nearly all 3G networks' connections to the web are via a single (or single block) of IP addresses, so all devices coming from the 3G network are effectively NATted. I guess you could audio stream, because Skype (sorta) works, but you'd probably need to write software - something like a bespoke encoder for Windows Media Services, which could connect to a WMS streaming server and do audio only. There's no way I could see the Hermes doing video, even with divine intervention!

They are in the midst of updating their website.
This produces very so-so video, but does work.
Good luck

Many Thanx

Comvu.com sounds interesting...
A Q: I understand that there's a software to install on PPC but how someone on a PC (on other end) watch the particular live stream from Comvu servers?
Thanx again pal.

'Mobile tv' on Touch HD

Has anybody on any of the networks got the HD working with any of the mobile tv packages that networks offer?
just wondering if the HD is compatible with mobile tv.
if so, does it work well and is it worth getting?

Well, its just a program, so if you can find it and install it(google ) then you could test it. I haven't heard of anyone really using it on the Blackstone since it comes with youtube.

yes
TV works on my Blackstone (around 25 channels + VOD)
Network: SFR (France Vodafone)
well, it's nice to have it but i consider it more as a gadget as we can do more interesting things with the device than watching tv!
and since the quality isn't so good (video resolution something around 160*120, sound mp3 16kbits) i can't really enjoy the experience. Waiting for HD TV!
so... YES it's compatible and YES it works well but..

Diamond TV works just fine.

how exactly does this tv work? do i need internet-connection or what is it like?

Yes, you need an internet connection.
​

Works also with Orange FR.
Sad point for you, it's a service from the operator, that links through a streaming link the video information to your device.
In GPRS it's crap size, but if you are connected to HSDPA, you got almost full size with really good quality

is it just available from the operator? or is it also possible to watch tv with wifi?

I have mobile tv on the divice, I stream from Tdc in Danmark. This is how it works for me.
I turn on the Internet explore, and punch in the address. When I click on live-tv, my streaming medie in programs opens. Its poor quality on the divice, but for watching news on work, its great.
Take a look at this site.

If your in the UK then BBCiPlayer works.

thanks for the replys, now i know the HD is compatible i'll be buying the phone soon
its mainly sky sports that i wanted for when i get bored at work, also i'l look into the diamond tv app.
does BBC iplayer work on 3g yet or is it jus wifi?

sky sports
I want it for sky sports too and for that you have to subscribe with orange tv through the correct channels. Its supposed to be £5 for sky sports 1,2,3 etc. The link i navigated too on my phone is below
http://orangeworld.co.uk/w/15034/?sid=a542aa0f0d6c
But when i try and subscribe this is the message i get.
Unfortunately due to a technical issue, mobile TV from Orange is currently not available on your Sony Ericsson phone which is an early software version. To upgrade your handset software to the latest version, please visit the Sony Ericsson website on your PC at http://www.sonyericsson.com and select the 'Sony Ericsson Update Service' in the Product Support section - here you will be guided through the update process. Before upgrading your phone's software, please make sure you back up any files stored on it.
If you are unable to upgrade your handset this way, please contact Orange customer services by calling 150 on your Orange phone and quoting 'Orange TV Error Code: A1b5'. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
If you already have a mobile TV subscription and wish to cancel this, you can do this by clicking the 'cancel subscription' link on your mobile TV homepage (select Your TV account).
When i get a chance i'll email orange but i kinda know the answer already. Orange TV is not set up for touch HD yet.

Try DiamondTV

I use my Sling Box! works great!

I have the sky sports and news package on the touch HD working, in coreplayer. My one is from T-mobile uk, £5 a month and you get all the sky sports channels live! The quality isn't that great but thats because of the bitrate of the stream and not some limitation of the Touch HD. I sling as well which is much better quality but you will have to pay for the data transfer. the sky mobile tv is £5 a month without any extra data charges.

Hi
mobile TV works great for me:
operator: Bouygues Telecom (Fench)
unlimited data plan included
For what I know, it consists in rtsp flows, accessible via the Streaming application available on the HD , "media en continu" in French. The best way is to access those flows via the operator's dedicated portal (where you can click on links that look like rtsp://something/name of the channnel/ )

My internet-provider [ziggo] has a number of streams of live television. This works only when connected to their network. I find myself using these on my laptop on a regular base. Perfect quality! [1200 kbs]
Shouldn't it be possible for me to watch these streams on my HD in the same quality? Right now the stream isn't fluent; sound is but the video isn't.
Is the quality of the stream too high? [1200 kbs] Is WMPlayer not the best player to play these streams?
