How do I stream video and audio?

I have the TyTN and would like to stream video and audio but suspect I need a program designed to do that (?) I have pocketv and tcpmp -- can someone tell me what I need to do?
Thanks!

I am using a slingbox and their wm5 player. This will allow you to watch live TV or any other video source connected to the slingbox.
the cost is about 150 for the box and 30 for the software, but it is awesome!
I can watch live tv (and able to change the channel) on the train ride home.

Hi
Also you can give ORB a try. ORB is free and it works fine for me.

The the free version at http://www.umediaserver.net/.
It's very good and with a fixed IP you can watch and change TV channels anywhere.

can u elaborate on how this exactly works and what i need to do before i go screwing up my tytn. thanks!!!

You register at www.orb.com and configure your computer with the program/webpage. Then point Pocket IE to www.orb.com and use it. It's very basic and easy, and doesn't harm your TyTN.
I tried to set up a stream on my LAN using VLC. Other computers may view and hear the stream using WMP, but Pocket WMP refuses to play it because "The parameter was not set correctly" (or something like that). Anyone know what's wrong?

With Unreal Media Server server you need a tv card in your pc.
I have an old Pinnacle RAVE TV card in my PC. I've installed Umedia server on my PC and set this up to capture and stream the tv card. I can watch decent quality TV from anywhere in the house using the free Umedia player. I also have a fixed IP address from my ISP. Having unblocked the relevant firewall port, I can also watch TV via 3G connection, albiet at reduced quality because of the lower bandwidth available.
There is a PC and Pocket PC client player available from http://www.umediaserver.net/download.html. The Pocket PC client is all that is needed on your TyTN.

Try orb
i have a home pc with broadband and a tv tuner. I can use orb to watch live or recorded tv, listen to mp3s, watch movies on my hard drive, and watch video from youtube and such.
best of all, its free, and runs great on my 5 year old homebuilt pc.
gotta try it!

Broadcast TV Tuner signal to my Touch Pro 2 (like Orb, but working...)?

I was curious to find out if anyone is using anything out there to broadcast their TV Tuner signal to their Touch Pro 2 and it's working...
I have tried Orb, ever since they updated for Windows 7, and although I can get it to work using my laptop, I can't get my Touch Pro 2 to connect. Whenever I try and get the signal to my CorePlayer, it hangs without a signal.
I wouldn't use it enough to get SlingBox, but MyTinyTV that worked wonderfully on my HTC Wizard hasn't been supported in a couple years.
Anyone have any suggestions?

I will donate to someone whom can get this going!

orb and core player
I've found that when using orb some setting need to be tweaked on coreplayer. go to menu>tools>setting then select the network page and set user agent spoof to never. that makes streaming videos work for me. not sure about live TV though.

Who is using me?

Try streaming through Windows Media Player or Streaming Media both are allready installed and seem to work fine for me.
With Streaming Media the video does seem to come in smaller but you can change the buffer up to 25 seconds so sometimes it worth it.
Change stream format in the orb web interface on your phone to:
.asx - for Windows Media Player
or
3GP-AAC/RTSP - for Streaming Media

Yeah, I just realized that this is a TV application. I don't care about all these garbage stations that broadcast online. I want my FOX, ABC, NBC, CBS, and others...

My 2cents..
I would personally start with webcam stream apps and set my TV card as the active cam, set the pc up as a webserver/streamer with some obscure port #, set the stream-cam app to stream 2 disk, and then connect to it by direct IP : port with a suitable player on the phone.
I've done this a long time back PC to PC so a friend and I could watch TV together from seperate locations. I searched around and was able to find free apps to set the whole thing up. There are a few webcam apps that have a built in stream server, you can likely find one if you look around.

I got live streaming TV to my TP2 from my computer at home using orb, I use it to watch the world cup when @ work
make sure that when you setup orb, it is able to scan all your channels
then from there you login to mycast.orb.com from Pocket IE and go to TV > guide > then select a channel and hit play
you can set what type of stream orb will beam by going to the orb website in your pc, going to settings and you can pick different stream types so that it will work with whatever media player you chose

Remote videos

Looking for something or a way I can watch videos or stream from my MAC to EVO also able to download the files if I need to plz help sorry or music also

Orb Networks
I've been using Orb Networks for years. You download/setup the free server side (your computer) program then on your phone just go to mycast.orb.com and login. From there you can browse your defined folders (I've even set up file browsing on mine), pick a media file and it will stream to your phone via the browser. There is a pay app for Orb but the quality is no better than using your phone's browser. The only advantage I've found it gives you a pretty media library interface. Not worth the $ IMHO.
You will need to play with the stream settings to find the best quality for your connection rate. Seeing that flash is supported in the phone's browser I'd suggest starting there. I generally do a speed test from my browse page if I'm unsure of network quality. On our screens the playback will be a bit blocky but the up side is that if you have a tv tuner on your server you can watch live tv on your phone (or your friends phone, or your laptop, or another computer).
If you go with orb and have any other questions feel free to pm me

I can't msg u says u can't accept but is orb my only way I can't login with something else to my MAC and stream video music ect....

Theres nothing else that I have seen that can stream from your computer to your phone, besides Slingbox, but thats only live tv and dvr. As far as downloading files from the mac to the phone, you can use dropbox, or use a remote desktop app.

can Orb stream .MKV files? i'm really hoping I will be able to stream using windows home server V2 when it comes out this year. They have allow streaming through internet browsers, so hopefully the Evo won't be an exception.

Not sure why you can't msg me, I should be able to receive all msgs.
I've looked into other options but have always come back to Orb. My main reason has been I need 3 or 4 different programs to do what Orb does and may of those require both host and client apps. Another reason has been in order to change settings in many of programs, they require that you be at the host computer.

.MKV works but there's reports of sync issues. All Orb really does is transcode then stream your media in the format you select in your settings

some people stream using vlc and the vlc client for android

Subsonic will do this with very slight modification. See my post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=789717&page=2
The file locations will be different for a mac, but it's nothing a quick search can't solve ;-)

VLC remote is said to be a good choice as well
