Well I have my data timeout set to 2 minutes (vs 10 minutes default) this is a great battery saver.
But I now find if I want to stream some videos from my pc via vlc through tcpmp the app does not automatically reactivate my data connection and stream so what I have to do is open IE or comm manager and enable data so tcpmp can have access.
Anyone know how to provision tcpmp to activate data?

Does anyone know of a way to receive the BBC Radio 1 stream on the Magician
use Pocket Media Player 10 or Real player.. and enter the URL..that's it
I have tried that, hence the reason for posing the question.
You never stated that you had tried either of those options.
You haven't even stated what the problem is, error messages etc...
Ok good point PDA,
The problem is that I cant get Real player 1.0 or 1.1 to work with the bbc's stream of radio1, i have tried the website links but that just wont take me to the player and I have tried the r1live.ram & r1livev7.ram files with the player but it just says the connection faild and gives me a message about not being able to connect to server.

Do any other streams work?
Are you using T-Mobile for your internet connection? If so, open the .ram file with a text editor. Replace :554 with :7070 and it will work. T-Mobile blocks port 554 but not 7070. I'm using the so called 1.1 preview version (although it's been a preview for about 3 years.)
If you're using a NAT firewall, some of the older routers won't pass the UDP protocol correctly and that will also block the stream.
The BBC page will give you the option of listening in an external player. If that option is selected, Pocket Internet Explorer will download the ram file and open the Real Player. Save the ram file as in the future you can just click on the file and the BBC will start streaming.
I am able to use the Virgin Radio Stream, but not the bbc, I have an orange M500, but I do not intend to use it via GPRS, too expensive, I have so far only tried using the internet connection via active-sync, but my PC has no problem streaming it, I have just bought a wireless card, so will be testing that asap.
Device = Qtek 9000 aka Universal
OS = Windows Mobile 5.0
Location = USA
Provider = T-Mobile
GPRS = Unlimited Internet
Questions:
1). Is there anyway to turn on GPRS only from a shortcut?
- As of right now, the only I can turn it on is by opening a browser. I would prefer to be able to turn on GPRS connection with a push of an icon or a button.
2). Is there any programs that will allow streaming of music from shoutcast with streams that are 128kbps without pausing?
- Most of the streams that I listen to only broadcast at 128kbps. Are there any programs that will buffer in the background and not cause the streams to pause? Currently using TCPMP as the stream player and pauses a lot. Don't mind waiting a long time in the beginning for the buffer as long as the stream doesn't have any pauses.
I've tried searching for answers but didn't seem to find any posts on this after about looking through 10 pages of searches.
Thanks.
On question #1
Try Spb GPRS Monitor, it shows in the today screen a bar and amng other things has launch icons for data connection, PIE and e-mail.
Regarding question #1, there's a freeware program GB-SOFT Tweak that will add such a button to the GPRS bubble window (when you click the [G] icon). It's available for WM2003 & WM5 here:
http://www.gb-soft.cz/XDAII/product_gprs_tweak_en.htm
Regarding GPRS, if you're trying to stream 128kbps over GPRS (not EDGE), then the max. rate you're likely to achieve is about 50kbps (even 45kbps due to network unreliability). Your data connection is probably too slow. (If you downloaded a file to your Storage Card that played at that rate, it should be fine).
I noticed that some programs wont establish a GPRS connection automatically. eg Minimo. Is there anyway to set it so that whenever any program wants to access the internet, it will activate GPRS? Or is this just that some programs dont have that ability. I have unlimited data so im not worried about the bills.
I have sbsh pocxket weather or whatever its called. You can set it to use the 'connection manager' or not. If it does, it will force connect if not connected and use whatever proxy settings you may have. If you dont use connection manager it will not force a connection and will not use any proxy settings you may have, unless they are setup in the program itself. I guess its all in the program design whethere or not apps will force a connection or not.
Hello,
I've just ordered a Diamond and I was thinking about an app that would be great.
If you could connect to the home computer/server/pc from the mobile and get the (windows) shared files from the PC on the mobile.
I will be getting a flatrate Turbo3G with the phone, so apps like this would be great. To be able to stream all my music from my pc/server wherever I am
Is there some software that enables something like this?
Thanks ..

for media files try winamp remote (orb), no apps installed required, browse through opera
I need a utility that I can call from Mortscript to terminate existing Media Net data connection. From Mortscript manual, the "Disconnect" command does not work any more after WM5 AKU3. I confirmed that this is true. Does anyone know a solution?
Thanks in advance.
Do you want to kill it after you use it, or kill it so you can't use it?
the second is a lot simpler, I use the Modaco NoData Cab as well as schap's advanced configuration tool to block all internet communications except for wifi.

The 1st. It is mainly for iGuidance scripting. With data connection open, iGuidance takes forever to launch. So in the mortscript, I want to terminate the Media Net data connection before launching the iGuidance.
NoData Connection
Hi there .... well I can see you losing money over the automatic data connection .... here is the solution application called NoData.cab ... look for it and it is what I use for now .... it is the best.
NoData: where you can toggle your connections
Instead of doing all that, you can set the data connection's DNS and ALT DNS servers to a fake value. It works for me and iGuidance starts up even with data enabled.
