Does anyone know anything about the release date, or whether the devices have been released.... for the Pocket PC that allows you to watch live TV feed via the SDIO Port?
I know there was a company that said March 06, but they've sorta gone quiet... there's radio devices out there, and devices for the PALM or CF Card... But anyone know anything about one that will be compatible with the MDA Pro???
:-/
Tv and Radio only via WIFI or 3G connections via subscriptions or internet based feeds only.
dont know any that will allow this via an SDIO slot, but would be interested if found, suspect if used it will be a massive battery drain.
There was something meant to have been released in March:

But can't find anything else about it... :-(
You might consider this
If you want access to TV/Sat/Cable or your DVD player you might want to try this.

Hi to everyone on the forum. This is my first post. I'm recently the owner of a new HTC Universal (T-mob MDA Pro).
Just thought I'd let you kno - I'm a PhD student working on mobile digital TV. I'm working in 2 European projects aimed at delivering mobile digital tv based at Brunel University. I currently have one of the digital TV SDIO receivers mentioned here. It's a prototype from a company called DibCom. It's a DVB-H receiver. DVB-H sends boradcast data in bursts so a receiver only has to be powered in bursts thus saving battery life. DVB-H braodcasts were tested in Oxford not so long ago. DVB-H broadcasts are not gonna be around until a few years yet so to test the chip I have to set up my own digital DVB-H channel and broadcast to myself! I'm working on user interface terminal applications, middleware and protocols. My job is to create the interactive side of the broadcasts - basically creating the interactive services like you see with regular DVB-T freeview only for mobile devices (and hopefully much better!). So interactive sports, shopping, gaming etc can all be done on your mobile device. That's the plan anyway! I'll try to attach a pic of the prototype chip here (taken with my MDA PRo!)
All the best guys!

cool sounding job man.
what do you believe the DVB-H reception will be like, I find freeview starts to go all blocky when its windy so I have no idea what DVB-H will be like if i was on the move (maybe on the bus or something).
Well this is why also the reason we needed a new technology to deliver to mobile devices. DVB-H doesn't need line-of-sight to the transmitter like DVB-T does. It will use "transmitter" and "receiver diversity" so that one strong signal can be singled out from lots of signal echoes and bounces. It is designed specifically for mobile use. One of the projects I'm working in is called PLUTO (Physical Layer DVB (that's the U!) Transmission Optimisation) where we're working on this exact issue. See http://www.ist-pluto.org for more info on this. The second project deals with broadcasting applications and user interfaces voe rthe new network etc and is called INSTINCT World (due to commence in September). INSTINCT World is a world-wide project with China being the newest member so far.
But... we'll soon see! All the best,
LLOYDY
So if this isn't coming out for ages.... why was msnmobiles saying the device for Pocket PC will be out March 06?
And there's already one out for the PALM devices using the CF card...
:-/
If you have windows xp media center you can use www.orb.com for live tv and whatever media files you have on your pc. I use it all the time to watch sports while my wife is shopping at the mall. EDGE speeds are adequate to watch but it is a little hard to read the scores on my wizard. If you can get onto a wifi connection the picture comes in perfect. The program tests your internet speed connections so gives you the best picture for your internet speeds. Best of all it is free and works really well.
Sorry for being misleading: I wasn't saying the devices won't be out until next year (I've had mine for well over a year now), I was referring to the broadcasts - broadcasting in the UK (and most of Western Europe I believe) won't start until next year sometime (I'm unsure about the USA). DVB-H still hasn't got a designated broadcast radio band yet. This is all still up in the air. I'm sure there are many companies about to release or have already released the receiver chips. Nokia have released their DVB-H capable phones already and I have been working with a few of them. Only thing is they use their own proprietary software and drivers which cost $$$. I'm working to develop an open standard across the board and eagerly awaiting the JSR272 (a proposed API from Java ready for mobile television and multimedia). As you can see the Digital TV Group is a member of the projects I'm working in and these are the people who set the digial TV standards.
@Jeeb75:
The media streaming your referring to though is Internet streaming. This is completely different and is an inefficient use of internet traffic/bandwidth (until internet router broadcasting protocols are properly used at least). With DVB-H you will get clear, crisp Digital TV and services over-the-air just like you can pick up a standard TV channel a home. Thanks for the info tho - I enjoy getting TV streams on my Universal.
Again, I apologise for the misunderstanding. Hope this helps!

Just in case anyone's interested in this, just found out from the manufacturer, that the items are available now, and work on analogue signals, so will work now too.
USD$150 is the price at the mo, which isn't toooo bad when you think of how much a portable TV would cost...
I'm gonna order one, and if anyone want's to know about it, will update this in due course

More info/details please
I checked out dibcoms website, from what I can tell, they are only making the internal chipset for the all in one analogue and DVB h tuner, not any ready to sell devices
I'm currently reviewing the SDIO analogue TV tuner from Eopstech. Both its power and sound is off-board due to the bandwidth limitations of SDIO.
Also, due to the bandwidth limitations, the bigger the screen size, the lower the frame rate. On my Magician in portrait mode, its very good. It slows down a bit in landscape. On the Universal in landscape it can be quite gittery but still watchable. The most annoying thing about it is the external battery pack which is quite bulky and only lasts 2.5hrs. However, you can plug headphones, power and an external aerial into it.
lloydcody: can you upload the pictures you posted to the forum itself or resize them pls.
lloydcody, couldn't you lose your job by disclosing those pics on here? I would take tehm down if I was you..... (although I wouldn't know if you have signed a NDA)
I haven't got a job - I'm a student! Just thought I'd let you guys know that mobile TV is soon on its way. There's nothing wrong with the pics. This is not a hush-hush project - far from it. I'm part of an open standards project not some secret corporate prototyping.
You can buy one of these chips yourself if you're interested - though they're not cheap!
@nedge2k
What do you want me to do with pics?
LLOYDY
LOL. Sorry, and thanks for clearing that one up. How much are the chips?
I people, im a bit new here.... is my first post, i wonder ??
if ....
there is anyone that can make the prophet connect via wireless to a pc,
ad hoc, im having a lot of trouble establishing this connection.
im my case i have a thoshiba portable l300, and a imate jamin g3, can´t establish conection ad hoc . is that possible to make ????
Also the final chalenge would be... to find a good tv streaming software and make it work via ad hoc, this way it would be possible to watch tv channels in the wireless range. i have wm6 pro rom instaled and my media player always assumes htc prophet touch, on streaming, and gives a response error, like not possible to streem.
anyone capable to make it work ?
Hello Blackstone Community!!!
Has anyone here successfully streamed live video from their IP Webcam to their blackstone using the Internet Explorer and/or Opera web browsers? Please specify if you were using WiFi, GPRS, or 3G connections. What IP Webcam did you purchase!
My application: I would like to purchase a IP Webcam that allows for........
- Pan/Tilt/Zoom
- Bi-Directional Audio Functionality
- Wireless - Wifi and possibily battery operated
- Allows for streaming to multiple web browsers using
WiFi, and GPRS, on my Blackstone ( I live in USA so 3G not an option)
Please provide advice if you can or let me know what technology on the webcam I need to at least satisfy the requirement to allow streaming to windows mobile devices using WiFi, and GPRS connections.
Thank you
Have a look at this thread.

Not so much for the cameras itself, but the application seems very useful.
When I get the time, I'll be having a play.
As for the CCTV itself. Most reputable manufacturers will have units that will meet your purposes. It depends on budget and situation. AXIS are good and cheap, Panasonic are good and midrange. Sony are v. good and expensive. Spec sheets will tell you all you need to know.
There is tonnes of information out there, and many many forum dedicated to CCTV professionals. Go go Google! Probably better than asking here.
I had a little dabble with streaming a web cam to the internet and the best program I came across was a free program called YAWCAM (Yet Another Webcam Software!).
http://www.yawcam.com/
I haven't used it recently, but it is simple to use and I successfully streamed images of our home to my Orange SPV E650 (this too was an HTC smart phone, but rebranded for Orange in the UK).
I reckon on the HD the results should be pretty good. A the time I was using it for monitoring our newly installed cat flap (CATCAM!) to make sure both of our cats were actually using it (one still refuses to!) .
I think if you used this in conjunction with remote desktop, VNC or the like, you should then be able to control the camera too.
Hope this helps...
hi
is it possible to connect htc jade with a wifi projector to get output
if possible then pls tell me how
there's no tv-out on the jade (htc HD does).
so only possibility I know so far is myMobiler, which can connect via WLAN (as long as both devices are in the same segment). you can than output your PC/notebook's screen to a beamer.
hi
i have a wifi projector
i just only want that i can see powerpoint pressentation through projector
i don't understand what you say
pls explain
you need extra software like "mymobiler" to get the htc jade screen to a PC. there's no other way.
so it will not support your wifi projector.
Hey all,
So the wife & I got 2 new G6's recently. We had G3 before & could use slimport (wired) to play video & stream through our phones & display on the tv. We have no wifi, phones are our only internet connection at the house. Our big screen is a few yrs old and came out just before "smart" tv's rolled out.
We used to plug in a slimport adapted to the phone & tv HDMI port, but apparently slimport is no longer compatible with the G6... Any tips/ideas/work arounds?
Get a wireless display adaptor. It uses mirrorcast.

How to connect LG G6 to beelink gt1 android TV box

I have the exact same problem as deekman. The only internet access I have is through my LG G6. I do not have WiFi or any wireless capability. Am I able to connect my LG G6 to my TV? kabirjedi said that a beelink gt 1 Android TV box works. I'm a bit of a techno-illiterate. So could anyone explain, in detail, how it works? I am able to use my LG as a wifi hot spot but only get 15g of 4g data per month before Verizon slows my "unlimited" service to 600kb which is worthless.
Hope you can help.
