I've posted a couple requests like this in the past year, but no one bit. It's understandable as maybe not many people here use the Rhapsody service (it is currently only available in the US ).
I would be willing to beg on my knees (or pay money too ) to a developer who could throw together a simple app to stream Rhapsody's music to our phones.
I've tried streaming from Rhapsody.com with every mobile browser in existence, and none will do it. So I think a proper app is the only way to go.
I've attached what Real Networks refers to as "Rhapsody's SDK." It's not so much an SDK as much as it is documentation on how their streams work in html. I'm sure it would be helpful in some way.
I know with Rhapsody being US only, it really limits the amount of developers who could put something together, but my fingers are tightly crossed
so have I!
Nobody touches my music...
.....
well im sure it is possible. if you maybe make a server at home, then stream through ther??? somehow?

Perhaps. But there are mp3 players that connect directly to Rhapsody's servers via WiFi) without a pc or having to use your home pc, so why wouldn't it be able to be accomplished on a WM phone?
The Nokia N800 has a Rhapsody client. Some-one should really look at that code and see if it could be ported.

Nice find, Surur!
bumpity bump
and bump again, SWEEET....
Bump 1 more time. I would love 2 have this
I just recently posted a thread about this as well. I am glad to bump this one up, as old as it is.
Still to this day, nothing, Meanwhile Apple iPhone users may have their Rhapsody streaming application, very soon! Android, right behind them. Blah! What happened to us Windows users? Was Rhapsody not born on the PC? You know, "PLAYS FOR SURE".
Any developers or coders that can look into this, gracias!!! Thank you very much.
Here are some possibly helpful links:
Old Rhapsody remote app. http://www.openrhap.net/blog/
Could be reworked to access Rhapsody catalog through PC as server and then stream the music.
Didiom: http://www.didiom.com/
Capable of streaming Rhapsody DRM protected, non purchased, subcription tracks from PC to PPC.
I have attached the old files from the OpenRhap.net SDK from the Rhapsody Remote project. As well as the Rhapsody Remote and Rhapsody Relay files. For whatever use they may be.

Hi,
I did ask about this on Networking but no replies. Think its more of a development issue.. there's potentially money to be made if someone comes up with a solution for this, I think, because of its film/tv industry applications....
I'm looking for a way to synchronize video playing on two Himalayas, presumably using Bluetooth. Although there are plenty of apps that let you control a media player on your pc using a Himalaya, I can't see anything that lets two phones control each other. Is it possible? It must be. I'm reasonably technically savvy (hardware and software) and am looking into developing something that does this, for my work in sound design and foley for films.... where having a mini, portable, silent-operating video player as a reference is a great advantage - nothing like that exists at the moment that has the capability for one person to control the video starting on another handheld player. Film industry has a lot of money to spend compared to consumers so a developer coming up with an app that does this might be able to market it!
Anyone interested in looking into this please post and I'll share the ideas, details etc that I've come up with so far...
Thanks!
For the past week or two, I've been looking into developing an open source project similar to Orb.com where you can stream A/V content to your phone or PDA. There was something similar posted to the Hermes forum by fun_key, but that was unfortunately not true media-on-demand, because it started VLC (www.videolan.org) and then would have the client connect, which would make the client miss the beginning of the media, sometimes a lot depending on connection lag.
The interface of this project would be web-based, again, like Orb. The problem I have run into, however, is the actual streaming. I have looked into using ffmpeg (has compatibility issues), mplayer (can't stream out; uses ffmpeg), and VLC, among others. VLC seems to be the most promising one, but I have some issues with it.
The main issue is due to me trying to make this work with WMP and not CorePlayer/TCPMP because of the video problems that has on the Hermes (and because it would be nice to stream to PCs at university/work without installing stuff on them). I managed to do some test streaming to desktop WMP, but the mobile one just won't work - it seems to be trying to download the entire file before playing it, which is not going to happen because it's huge.
So I am asking for any kind of help or suggestions that any of you might have. Especially if someone here is familiar or has worked with Microsoft's ASF specifications and is willing to help, that would be awesome.
EDIT: Almost forgot -- this project would work on at least Windows and Linux.
Cool! I can't really help you,
but I just wanted to say I very much like the idea!
I've been looking for this since I learned about orb.
I even made a dual boot windows xp install specially for Orb, so when I leave my house, I reboot the PC in WinXP to lbe able to listen to music and watch TV on the go.
A linux alternative would make this unnecessary!!
Please someone who can help, join this project!!
Strange, I thought I was subscribed to this thread, but I didn't get any notification of your post, ksdz...
Anyway, I've pretty much given up on using WMP because have neither the time nor the patience to study and code for the ASF protocol, but I have not given up on the idea itself.
Right now I'm working on another project, but once that's ready, I will most likely return to this. I might as well make use of CorePlayer/TCPMP - in fact I've already figured out how to do the most challenging parts of this. I only wish I had more time to work on personal projects such as this one.
I'm wondering if there are any Gnutella-clients, or other software, for WM that allows music searching/downloading. Would be nice to be able to download tracks on the go.
Call-script
double-post... sorry
well.......
You can always use a remote connection to your PC to download tracks, then transfer to your phone via Orb or something.
The problem with Gnutella for WM-
1. Legality- Service providers don't want their data being used to dl music illegally and afraid of being sued
2. Bandwidth- Same as above except without the "and afraid of being sued"
This might even get categorized as a warez post, but probably not.
But i digress. I must point out that the bandwidth that you would need would only be available via wi-fi, effectively killing the idea of "on-the-go"
ANd besides, the artists do good work. Let them get paid. Read my sig, just replace "using warez" with "Downloading music illegally"
pocket G2pro
i will give you a clue but i cant give you direct link in xda.software calls pocket g2pro that will allow to download music from gunutella network.cheers
yeh but g2pro has been offline for at least a few months if not a year they shut off their servers it appears so thats not an option.
i dont think p2p software is warez. the program itself is simply a program if someone codes it and offers it for free then its no worse than any other developed program in here. Im sure modding the HTC programs and puling them from the ROMs brings up all sorts of IP violations (for all you law buffs you know what im saying) technically. Im simpler terms i doubt modding and pulling HTC copyrighted software is exactly "legal" per say.
what you do with it is your own morality IMO. the p2p program in itself isnt warez though if its developed and offered for free
As far as the piracy-question is concerned; there are legal files on the Gnutella network aswell and it is off course only these I'm interested in. Like songs from some local emo-goth band and such. Ya. Bandwidth isn't a problem since I live in Sweden and have an unlimited HSDPA data-plan. Even if used strictly via WiFi it would still come in handy in my opinion. But it seems I'm out of luck though, doesn't it? Are there any good BitTorrent clients perhaps?
yes there is very nice bittorent client which calls adiasta bittorrent...also g2pro network is down but you can always add manuel gunetalla network.it was under the settings but i cant remember know.could you plase check ipmart-forum.you can get your answer guys.just check the under the ppc section forum.good luck..
ok, not warez. there are just some very radical people here that would categorize it as such. But yeah......
pocket g2pro alive and well

Hi,
i think it would be great if someone could come up with a way of checking which friends are online on your Playstation Network.
I think there is something simmilar for Xbox live where users can use their WM device to see whos online.
It would be great if this is possible and i know many people will be interested in this.
someone....? anyone..? i just want to know if it can be done?
267 views and nobody thinks its a good ideA? come on people someone must be able to tell me if its impossible
Is there currently a way right now to access PSN friends from the web?
As far as I know, only your PS3 can access the information.
http://www.us.playstation.com/MyAccount/PSNL/FriendList
You can only view your friends list, however. You can't make any changes/messages/whatever.

so does that mean its possible to create an app? if it is, it would be very cool
iv got both the xbox 360 and ps3 but all my freinds have the ps3 so this app would be very usefull
why need a app for this then? go to the website and check it. opera oder pie should do that job.

thats like telling some one to cook a meal when its so much easier getting a ready meal from a supermarket lol
I understand its unnecessary but its more convenient
I'd be interested in this.
I dont' think there'd be a way to send messages though, considering that we can only do it while signed into PSN on the PS3 atm. If it's ever opened up though, this would be very nice!
The biggest issue is that you have to be logged in to view your friends, games, trophies and such. I personally haven't played with any of the web page objects for .NET myself, but have some experience with cURL in PHP. One could in theory create a cURL object that logs into the site, screen scrapes for the data you want and then outputs to XML or something. Then you create your WinMo app to read in that XML file.
Issue #1 w/ this kind of idea...the Playstation page uses a butt ton of JavaScript to setup things and cURL doesn't interpret JavaScript
Man, not to resurrect this but I think this would be a great idea as well. Like a PSN messenger that allows you to see who is online and message them. I hate turning on my PS3 to see who is online. Hate to message on my PS3 even more. be cool to be able to do this away from home etc. Shame it is a difficult task. I guess I'll have to use AIM. booo
There is the Sony Aino phone that allows you to turn your ps3 on and control the interface.
Do want! WM7 will have a XBL hub, not to thrill about that since I'm a Sony guy.
I was playing around a bit with this, but here's a good resource: http://api.geekweb.org/psn/community/
Hello Everyone!, I would like to start off this topic with a Request to all developers to give birth to a XLink Kai WM Application! Naturally with something as complicated as a tunneling app to be ported over to a Mobile handset, i would like to begin a Bounty and Request for a WM Xlink Kai.
It would be absolutely amazing if we could get some official Xlink Developers in on this as it would give us a lot of in site.
=={About XLink Kai}== *As quoted from website*
"XLink Kai is a program that you run on your PC or Macintosh that allows you to play system-link / LAN-enabled games for your XBox, Playstation 2, Gamecube and PSP.
The software is referred to as what is known as a 'tunnelling' application. There are various other single-console tunnelling applications available, but XLink remains the only one to support all 3 major consoles..."

=={Why Kai on WM?}==
I Don't understand why is hasn't been done, but i still spectacle at the day when i can pair my DS or PSP to my phone as use that as my proxy to other players, instead of my Laptop in a long car ride. Which id still have to pair with the phone to gain internet access. Besides what if i'm in a situation when i dont have my laptop with me, but just my PSP/DS and Phone, and would like to go for a hunt in Monster hunters, and have someone team with me to get that blasted Kirin.

Ideas are welcome, in fact encouraged.
For starters, would a sourceforge group be good for us? i have no clue, or what about that other site i believe it was Google that had a similar site like sourceforge for developers? Google Code?
So let the shows begin!
Bumping to see if i can atleast get anyone a "oh yes im interested in seeing this kick off as well"
P.S- Anyone interested in doing a mock up (Graphic)
xbox remote for the ppc a while back...kinda stalled out but might be a place to start definately connected and allowed remote control...on the original xbox- fantastic machine when running xbmc...maybe called xbmc remote.
somewhat irrelavent to what xlink is, its not a remote app, its an app that tunnels traffic (mainly LAN, or Ad-Hoc) over the Internet. to allow ad-hoc games to play over the internet.
