Considering all the amazing developers out there, there has to be a way to do this? I don't care how complex, I just would really like to be able to record my devices screen at a decent FPS. Android Screencast is maybe 5fps, and just looks horrid. Even if it was something as simple as being able to remotely view my phone on my pc, then that would work (i have screen recording software).
I have thought about just using the emulator that comes with the sdk, but I would rather the videos be of my phone. Is this just a dream?
I've tryed apps like droid vnc but it looks bad/glitchy, i think something displaying the system on pc via usd would probably be fast and look good but haven't found anything that dose it. Kinda surprising all the development/custom apps and i cant find a something simple like video out via usb

Hey guys, I got the quake3 running on my xperia, but its not really playable so Id like to try quake2. However I cant seem to get it running!
Downloaded it from http://quake.pocketmatrix.com/ . When I start up the app I get like a control interface with a couple of buttons "Attack", "A", "B" etc. But behind these there's only a gray background. Sometimes the game seems to start, as I can hear in-game sound. But the screen stays the same. Also tried the xscale optimized one but that didnt seem to work either.
Help plz
This is one of the first things ill be trying when I get mine, Ill keep you updated. Hopefully it will be sometime next week when phones4u stock it
That'd be nice. Hopefully you'll get it as soon as possible
Hmmmmm.
Just tried Quake. I start it with the X1 closed and it comes up but the display is part white i just get the weapon selection bit and the A B buttons etc, I try opening the X1 up and closing it but the display just switches orentation. when i pess the x to close it asks me if i really want to quite, when i press yes, the main display flashes up with 'Single Player' 'Options' etc!
Any ideas anyone?
Installed Quake2. I run the program it comes up with a box saying by Dan East or something, press ok then nothing happenes
weell I get a bit further than that but still doesnt work for me neither. Anyone with more luck?
I find it puzzling that in general Windows on PC "just works" but Windows Mobile breaks compatibility with even slight changes to the OS and/or hardware.
Why should a higher resolution screen break an app? Does Windows Mobile have no support for dealing with that? Surely you would expect it to detect an app trying to use a lower resolution and put it in some sort of wrapper to pad the extra space.
Its bizarre that even Java apps have compatibility issues from phone to phone. Why no standards so they work on ALL headsets? The whole mobile market is a shambles when it comes to compatibility but Java seems to have a better success rate (well, it usually displays SOMETHING) than Windows Mobile does, despite their being more variations of it around.
actually I dont think its the resolution...
Also, wvga has a different aspect ratio. So it makes sence that some apps dont fill the whole screen
hi,
wouldn't it be great, if we could use our diamond as video surveillance system?
the app just needs two options:
- select whether the front or the back camera is to be taken for recording
- select whether to record to internal storage, or the video to be sent by wifi to a pc for example.
while recording (surveilling), the screen of the diamond should be black (or off).
is there such an app existing? or can someone write this piece of software?
what do you think about this idea ?
sounds like a good idea but i dont know how easy it would be to code
Do these sites help at all? I just did a google search...
This is the one that I use, http://vannara.wordpress.com/2007/10/03/pocket-pc-phone-as-webcam-or-surveillance-camera/... takes a bit of playing but does work.
Or have a look at these:
This software alows you to control cameras in your home remotely, http://www.camerasecuritynow.com/CCTV-DVR/CCTV-PDA.asp, very cool!
This one the work computer has blocked me viewing, however sounds good on Google, www.filecluster.com/Security/Keylogger-Monitoring/Download-Spy-Camera-Software-2009.html.
This one sounds like what you want, http://www.pocketpc-software-downloads.com/software/t-free-pocketpc-photospy--download-smyfzlke.html.
Been searching since I got my HD2, that is 2 months ago now: there is apparently no way to record video in background on this phone, and it is absurd.
I basically need it as a car black box system, to work together with mp3 player and navigation/gps tracking software.
I found a russian pay software that should do exactly that, together with gps overimposing of current speed, but "garbled" is the best adjective to describe it with when installed on the HD2.
I tried QIK and LiveCLIQ, but they do no support HD2 officially, nor the cab that I downloaded for the touchpro2 worked.
Is that possible that the only software able to effectively record video on the HD2 is the builtin HTC camera, which is less than optimal in settings, and is not able to record in background? (even went through all its keys in HKLM and HKCU, but nothing interesting there).
Could any of you suggest a working solution, even if I am widely losing any hope since google didn't turn up anything during all this time?
I am looking for a solution also, tried the russian software too and it was not usable at all. Found a thread about a backgrounding app but doubt it will be any good. So the search continuous. Hope something can be found.
you could still point me to that thread, you never know
I also think that's not feasible because as soon as the camera app loses the focus it seems to stop recording, and that's silly to say the least... but trying won't hurt anyway, at least for the time being, until another app is released.
Depressing that Android is so young and it's already got its freeware car blackbox software, which is even better (on the paper) than the russian pay software.
new version of LiveCLIQ works
hi!
they released a new version (r5075) which finally woks for my HD2.
Find the app here: at LiveCLIQ homepage and select "HTC Touch HD T8282".
Best
good news, will go check right now
Highly disappointed about livecliq:
forces landscape mode... htc camera shows as landscape, but the system is still in portrait, while livecliq actually rotates the display
resources hog, and slow as hell: while the HTC camera displays the images almost realtime as you move the viewport, livecliq lags considerably, and looks more like a fast slideshoq than a real video; while recording, you can put it in background with hide, but the rest of the system is pretty much unuseable from how much slow it is
generally useless for "our" purposes; sure, being able to upload or strem the videos directly online may be a good thing for those who are intrerested, but the developers decided to lock the program to just that function, as the video is recorded as a chain of 1MB max segments in "raw" format, and is not watchable offline
you cannot choose the save location, offline videos are saved under the install folder, which means hell for those who always install to internal memory, and keep the storage card for what it's meant, that it, storage
so well, livecliq is a no go, HTC camera is still the best if only it worked in background.
Is there a screen recording app for the a500???? I'm aware there's one in the play store but. Doesn't work on tetra devices. I've tried Ubuntu but the frame rate was to laggy. Has anyone found a fix for this or a whole new method. Don't really want to use the USB method or hooking it up to a computer.....I don't see why there can't be one now that ics supports screenshots natively.......thanx
Hello, so I started playing with my new VR. I know some sites seem to have a dedicated VR mode, however I am unsure how it works on youtube? I know once I go full screen, I have options for 360, 180, and couple 3d setting modes, but those do not seem to really look right.
So just wondering what advice might be out there?
Lets say I want to see a Miku concert or something in 3d (kinda like the PSVR has) anyone have an idea? Thanks. =D
Im surprised. No one here uses it more for 3d vids?
I am in the same boat, i dont know how to use it in youtube
The trick used with earlier versions was to start the Google Cardboard app and then place the phone in the headset WITHOUT fully connection the USB connection. This prevents the phone from starting the Oculus app.
You may find better explanations by searching for '"Google Cardboard" "Gear VR".'
Yea but its odd since youtube once you hit full screen, gives you more 3d options. So just kinda wondering.
