Watching Sky mobile TV on 3UK! help! - Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General

Hi there,
I'm just a newcomer in this forum
I have a Tmobile Ameo:
Rom Wm6.1 WWE R6.1 MiChY
Radio 1.58.
I'm currently on 3UK Network and they have a service that allow you to watch Sky mobile TV via 3G signal.
First I have managed to successful sign in and load the Planet3 and the Sky mobile TV home screen on IE6( can not do that on opera or skyfire, don't know why?). However, after i click the link of the channel and the browser take me to the screen told me that the video will be played soon there is nothing happen.
Then i found out( by reading in this forum) that IE6 mobile dont support stream video. So i use HTC Media Streaming and use the reg key provinded to make it work with IE6. But there still no sign of the video. I have tried every config that i can think of in HTC media Streaming and i have set it to connect via 3 internet as well. But the program still saying that it fail to connect to the network after about 10 secs trying to connect.
Does any one know how and could help me to make HTC Media Streaming stream video from 3uk network?
Many thank ( soory for my bad English)

does real player really works?

hi
can anyone play this file with real player ppc?
http://www.radio.rai.it/live/radio1.ram
on pc, it plays
on ppc (xda/mdaII) no
why? thanks!!
official link:
http://www.realnetworks.com/industries/mobile/operators/products/player/ppc/
Its a stream from the net so it should work.. but listening to the radio via the net on your PPC would probably run up some hefty GPRS bills.
Its in .ram format, so it should work fine as long as your GPRS is connected.
thanks for your reply
the rai link provided it's only a 33kbit audio file
the following file is only 20kbit:
http://www.radio.rai.it/live/radio1.ram
when opening a ram or rm file it always tell me:
"Response or data from server timed out"
i've search a solution on this page, but without success:
http://service.real.com/help/player/realone/pocketpc/realone.html#troubleshootingyourro
thanks for any help! ;-P
I've tried many times and many links to listend and see streamed media via Real One,also with newer version.
Only 2 of 25 i've tried worked.
In fact,I don't know why they do not work.
Saluti
thank you ;-P
is your error alway the same?
thanks!
i think it depens from the pocket pc version
on real site they always write "ppc 2002)...
any other suggest?
can anyone help me please?
this page works on pc:
http://www.realnetworks.com/mobile/pocketpc/usa/entertainment_movies.html
but on my xda/mdaII not
the error is always the same:
"Response or data from server timed out"
on the official real player web site they invite customers to try their page!
http://service.real.com/test
but NO demo play with windows mobile 2003...
how it's possibile that REAL didn't try it's most famous software on the last windows mobile?
uhm...
I contacted Real about this a while ago, and they seem pretty clueless.
As you mentioned, none of their test files work, yet their response seemed to deny any problem on their end, to the effect of saying "some streams may not be compatible, contact the source of the stream".
Just plain useless if you ask me.
Now if only Radio4's listen again site did windows media (which works, er, 40% of the time)...
Incidentally, did you know Auntie Beeb is planning on a video service for their TV programmes? High quality 320x240 optimised encodings of their past week's programmes (ideal for PocketPC, in fact they've given a lot of PPC devices to their staff to test). Could be fantastic.
thanks for your reply
any other suggest?
how it's possible that no one have my problem?
real player really doesn't work on windows mobile 2003?
it' a big BUG!!!
It could be 2 things afaik
1 realplayer doesn't like nat. It needs to open aa connection back to the mobile device to send the data. The device opens a control channel, and the streaming server opens a streaming data connection. Why does it work on the pc? either the pc has a non natted public ip address, or the player falls back to streaming via the control channel, this isn't happening on the ppc player.
2 ppc realplayer doesn't like http streams and only supports rtsp streams
thank you for yout technical reply
i can only reply on point 2:
the links provided (rai) directyl redirect to rtsp streams files
if you watch the clip info during the first loading, real player ppc show the correct rstp location
i'll try with ppc2002
last year it worked with wifi connection
always seems ok (configuration & requirements):
http://www.expressresponse.com/cgi-...st_name=&last_name=&email_address=&telephone=
http://www.expressresponse.com/cgi-...cument&search_input=JSS_0019.html&session_id=[[session_id]]
but it doesn't work
damn real! :twisted:
i've compliled a support form on real web site, let's wait for their reply..
Its got to be a problem with REAL, as every stream ive tried in windows media player always seems to work.
I didnt manage to get any of those test streams to work.
yes!
with microsoft media player almost all files play in streaming!
Just found buried in O2's website:
Question 5:
Can I use Realplayer with Xda?
Answer:
Yes - all content stored on Xda will be usable. You are not able to stream Real content using O2 MobileWeb at this time.

So I guess they block the necessary ports. No idea why they would want to, but it's their network after all.

Question: How can i play Youtube Videos with WiFi?

Hello,

You need to use TCMP player it plays the flv videos. Google it and you should find it http://picard.exceed.hu/tcpmp/test/ somewhere on the net is the settings that allow you to play utube videos.
Good luck it does work I just haven't done it in forever.

Try to use opera mobile I can see videos form youtube in that browser perfectly (of course you need to have installed flasplayer)

Hope this helps

The most easy way to play youtube videos and even videos from other sites is to use a program called "vTap"
Or you can check out this thread that I started: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365252
You can play in opera mobile, but the performence in my experience is that it is very slow!
Good luck!
thank you, it works very well

'Mobile tv' on Touch HD

Has anybody on any of the networks got the HD working with any of the mobile tv packages that networks offer?
just wondering if the HD is compatible with mobile tv.
if so, does it work well and is it worth getting?
Well, its just a program, so if you can find it and install it(google ) then you could test it. I haven't heard of anyone really using it on the Blackstone since it comes with youtube.
yes
TV works on my Blackstone (around 25 channels + VOD)
Network: SFR (France Vodafone)
well, it's nice to have it but i consider it more as a gadget as we can do more interesting things with the device than watching tv!
and since the quality isn't so good (video resolution something around 160*120, sound mp3 16kbits) i can't really enjoy the experience. Waiting for HD TV!
so... YES it's compatible and YES it works well but..
Diamond TV works just fine.

how exactly does this tv work? do i need internet-connection or what is it like?

Yes, you need an internet connection.
​
Works also with Orange FR.
Sad point for you, it's a service from the operator, that links through a streaming link the video information to your device.
In GPRS it's crap size, but if you are connected to HSDPA, you got almost full size with really good quality
is it just available from the operator? or is it also possible to watch tv with wifi?
I have mobile tv on the divice, I stream from Tdc in Danmark. This is how it works for me.
I turn on the Internet explore, and punch in the address. When I click on live-tv, my streaming medie in programs opens. Its poor quality on the divice, but for watching news on work, its great.
Take a look at this site.

If your in the UK then BBCiPlayer works.
thanks for the replys, now i know the HD is compatible i'll be buying the phone soon
its mainly sky sports that i wanted for when i get bored at work, also i'l look into the diamond tv app.
does BBC iplayer work on 3g yet or is it jus wifi?
sky sports
I want it for sky sports too and for that you have to subscribe with orange tv through the correct channels. Its supposed to be £5 for sky sports 1,2,3 etc. The link i navigated too on my phone is below
http://orangeworld.co.uk/w/15034/?sid=a542aa0f0d6c
But when i try and subscribe this is the message i get.
Unfortunately due to a technical issue, mobile TV from Orange is currently not available on your Sony Ericsson phone which is an early software version. To upgrade your handset software to the latest version, please visit the Sony Ericsson website on your PC at http://www.sonyericsson.com and select the 'Sony Ericsson Update Service' in the Product Support section - here you will be guided through the update process. Before upgrading your phone's software, please make sure you back up any files stored on it.
If you are unable to upgrade your handset this way, please contact Orange customer services by calling 150 on your Orange phone and quoting 'Orange TV Error Code: A1b5'. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
If you already have a mobile TV subscription and wish to cancel this, you can do this by clicking the 'cancel subscription' link on your mobile TV homepage (select Your TV account).
When i get a chance i'll email orange but i kinda know the answer already. Orange TV is not set up for touch HD yet.
Try DiamondTV
I use my Sling Box! works great!
I have the sky sports and news package on the touch HD working, in coreplayer. My one is from T-mobile uk, £5 a month and you get all the sky sports channels live! The quality isn't that great but thats because of the bitrate of the stream and not some limitation of the Touch HD. I sling as well which is much better quality but you will have to pay for the data transfer. the sky mobile tv is £5 a month without any extra data charges.
Hi
mobile TV works great for me:
operator: Bouygues Telecom (Fench)
unlimited data plan included
For what I know, it consists in rtsp flows, accessible via the Streaming application available on the HD , "media en continu" in French. The best way is to access those flows via the operator's dedicated portal (where you can click on links that look like rtsp://something/name of the channnel/ )
My internet-provider [ziggo] has a number of streams of live television. This works only when connected to their network. I find myself using these on my laptop on a regular base. Perfect quality! [1200 kbs]
Shouldn't it be possible for me to watch these streams on my HD in the same quality? Right now the stream isn't fluent; sound is but the video isn't.
Is the quality of the stream too high? [1200 kbs] Is WMPlayer not the best player to play these streams?

BBC Iplayer on Diamond

Tip: Make BBC Iplayer work on your Windows Mobile phone (info found elsewhere)
The BBC’s iPlayer service has been rolling out and supporting more and more smartphones, but as they do it on a device by device basis that has left the varied ecosystem of Windows Mobile at a distinct disadvantage.
Fortunately we have more control than most over our devices, and the following hack will allow the video streaming service to work on any device.
You need to change the user agent in Opera Mobile to spoof the Samsung Omnia, the only supported Windows Mobile phone.
The instructions are as follow:
Run Opera
In the address bar enter opera:config (no http://)
Scroll down to User Prefs and click
Scroll down to Custom User-Agent and at the end of the pre-filled text add sgh-i900
Scroll down some more and press Save. You will get a prompt which suggests you may need to reset the phone, but for this you don’t.
Check you have HTC Streaming Media Installed - If you do point your browser to http://www.bbc.co.uk/mobile/iplayer/ and enjoy. The video opens in HTC Streaming Player on HTC smartphones.
Thanks a lot edna.road, just tried it and it works perfectly
I saw this aswell, here - http://wmpoweruser.com/?p=1794
Just flashed to Dutty's V4 so going to try it when i get it back on
Tried this before christmas, but I prefer watching Iplayer through Skyfire. The latest beta works just as good. You can watch any flv site through it such as youtube etc so
The iplayer now works with the HTC Touch HD and looks great, is that getting a higher quality stream than the version for the sgh-900i?
I have tried using the same user agent as the HD
‘HTC Touch HD T8282 Opera/9.50 (Windows NT 5.1; U; en)' on my standard HTC Diamond but get the message device not supported.
How is the iplayer webpage seeing the difference between my Diamond and a HTC Touch HD?
I have got the BBCi Player page to work in opera but when I click on a video it switches to streaming media then sits on buffering 0% then says can't find network!
This is on my work wifi though will try again when I am at home.
Works for me....
It works fine for me, though only at home via WiFi. Can't get it working via 3G, but may be it's not designed to?
Yeah If I have wifi turned off it asks to turn it on, but I only get GPRS or Edge at work, It may work On HSDPA

You also mean redtube youporn etc etc?? lol
I managed to change the setting in 'opera:config' and now the BBC iPlayer page loads fine; only problem nothing will play and every time I click a link I get this box *see attached img*
Any ideas ? ? ? ? ? ?
Thanks

lol exactly!
I have got this to work with HSDPA, it streams pretty well.
Unfortunately the method is far from perfect.
After doing the above fix, connect to wifi and find the stream you want.
Start it playing and then pause, go back to comm manager, turn wifi off and phone on, it should continue streaming fine.
Not ideal though I know.
This suggests that it's the beeb blocking it rather than the carrier. Hmmm.
("Hmmm" was just to make me sound wise - I have no fracking clue what to do next)
Are there any WM phones where it's known to work over the air?
BBC now reports native support HTC Touch HD, over wifi+3G. Does anyone have the User Agent for the HD, as would like to try it on my Diamond
http://iplayerhelp.external.bbc.co.uk/help/about_iplayer/mobile_phone
hmmn still only wifi for us diamond users on orange it seems, this is taken from theabove link check paragraph 3:-
What each heading means
Download TV programmes over wifi to watch later without needing an internet connection. If you download a programme, you can watch or listen to it for 7 days. Devices that don't currently support the digital rights management (DRM) system that we use for BBC iPlayer cannot download programmes to watch or listen to later.
Watching TV programmes while connected to the internet over a wifi connection.
Watching TV programmes while connected to the internet over a 3G connection - *only available on 3 and Vodafone networks at present.
Radio - listen again or listen live to programmes while connected to the internet.
Sideload - transfer a programme from your PC to your mobile device to play without needing an internet connection.
Good tip but I'd prefer it to work through HSDPA. Any chance of this happening soon?

T-Mobile W&W tv doesn't work with HTC streaming media

Here in the netherlands T-mobile delivers to it's WnW+ users a extra called t-mobile tv.
Normaly i used HTC Streaming Media for the streams but with the coming of WM6.1 roms i can't use the program anymore.
Now i have to use Coreplayer for it instead.
But the only problem i have with coreplayer is that is verry unstable for the t-mobile tv.
I used to use HTC streaming media and that worked verry good.
So i just wanted your help fo sollutions.
When i select the streams HTC streaming media opens and than try's to connecting.
After a few seconds/minutes it than give's a error can't find network.
Than i accosiate the files with coreplayer and it works.
For coreplayer i use a dirrect connection and also udp streaming most be on?
Does someone kwow a sollution or has advice for this problem.

Sorry if I'm asking you something obvious, but have you set your provider details in streaming media under menu>options>network>connect via?
Sometimes proxy settings can also prevent you 'finding' your network.
