I've heard that there's a way to watch my web cam in the PPC, using ORB.
I've got ORB, but couldn't find a way doing that.
Will appreciate any help..
Make sure you have the latest version of Orb downloaded. I'd also check to make sure that your camera is being shown as an input device in your control panel under scanners and cameras. Then the GUI is pretty self explanatory for setting it up on your Orb server. You will have to create a username/password to log onto your Orb server from your phone. Basically you will just have to log onto orb.com after setting up your server and it will show a link for the webcam. Click on it and it will open up your default media player. You might want to connect via wifi. GPRS will be choppy and slow.
Edit - If you are having trouble finding it after you log in, Orb has it under the TV tab for some reason and it doesn't have its own tab...
thanks, all i needed was the EDIT part about the TV, i was looking for Camera tag.
Hi,
I'm trying to developper my first app for Android. As I already have a database which contains all my media, and a web site to list them (with a search utility and even a kind of remote to control VLC from another computer), I tried to port that web site to my android app. (Yes I know, i could just rewrite the site to fit with my android screen... But that's a pretext to create my first app).
So far, i can list my medias in a SQLite database, which is synchronised with my server. I download the media arts...etc. The remote also works good. That's fine.
But i wonder if i could stream my media to my phone too? Not just remotly launch them on my TV? Now, I'd like to launch them on my android. So here we are, i configured VLC well and i can stream my medias in the LAN, on my phone... But not outsire the lan.
That's a common question. I found it several times in google, but no answers. So i asked on videolan forum why I could'nt stream out the LAN? They said that it's the client that choose the ports where VLC streams the media. That's the point : I don't know how to configure the stream ports in android!
Any one know that?
Many thanks.
P.S. I'm french, and I don't speak very well I think . Please forguive me and ask if you want more informations!
P.S.2 the videolan forum where I asked my question :

i use orb for all my media streaming to m evo.try it.you can stream anything with it and more...its free. google it make sure check orb classic ...
Tanks for your answer.
But my problem is not to find another solution, I'd like be able to say "i have it working" and you must know that my server, which contains my media, is under ubuntu. And orb doesn't work under Linux so far. I'm trying jinzora but I really would like to have my solution with vlc to work. As it work on LAN, I think I'm close to the solution. I only need to Know how to change default streaming port under Android client...
Thanks again.

Was wondering if anyone has had any luck with this combo yet, I've tried and while I can access my home computer's media share on the ps3 can't seem to see the phone's. Is it just not supported yet? I thought DLNA was a pretty open standard and the ps3 does support it.
hi sifu, just wondering is there any app that can scan through the network and found laptop with build in camera, than can see through it through android phone.
No. But you can use GPP Remote Viewer. But server need instal on pc.
