I figured I would share this because I keep seeing so many people over the last couple years asking about how to emulate a mobile browser on their PC so they can watch jetflicks! on their TV.
Now you do not have to. Jetflicks (just over 5 min ago) announced they now offer their service for windows PC:
"You can now watch jetflicks! Mobile Content on your Windows PC! To download the software, just log into your account on http://www.jetflicks.com/ from a windows computer and then go to your account page, the downloads required are listed there under the software section! Keep in mind, this is still a beta version. So let us know any hiccup's if you run into any! Thanks Again. - Jetflicks Staff"
Happy Viewing Everyone!

Jk published in his weblog an article about the problem that maybe the new Windows Media Player 10 and the new "playsforsure" Features will never be available for actual Windows Mobile 2003 Pocket-PCs... thats a thing i am also worried about these days - because why the hell did i spent more than €600 for a device, with more than adequate memory capacity for all types of media, when it does not integrate in the existing "Media-World" that is drawn by available and upcoming Microsoft Products. Well have a look at the portable MediaCenter Devices... neat and really cool gadgets - a must have - you can sync them with your home pc´s - can have the movies from your home´s MediaCenter on your portable MediaCenter, you can buy content from Microsoft Content-providing Partners... okay thats cool isn´t it. - But infact - i got that nifty "all-in-one device suitable for every purpose" called Pocket PC.... - Iam watching high-quality-mpeg4 movies on my PocketPCs for months... i listen to my mp3´s, ogg´s, aac´s and whatsoever... but those cool integration-feeling doesn´t come up with my PocketPC... and the Windows Media Player 10 for Windows Mobile would help that a bit - but what would sort things out: to have the same integration and Features that are available for other, compared to the Pocket PC dumb, devices....
And thats why I started the "MTP-over-IP" Project. Because MTP ist the Protocol all this cool devices use to communicate with the Applications... (there are some more like auto-discovery and so on...but first things first)... a working Implementation of MTP would make it possible that the Windows Media Player 10 on the PC could recognize the Pocket PC as a Media Device, as a Smart Device that it is...
So. Due to quite heavy workload I have the moment I cannot do such a project alone - so I would like to ask everyone that is interested and capable of helping me with this project in doing so.
At the moment the first lines of code are already written - i started the MTP Library in C# based on the .NET Framework at the Moment - the Goal is to get the MTP Protocol working, on the .NET Framework and on the .NET Compact Framework...
I published the first lines of code some days ago... you can grab it here(sorry that the blog-article is mainly in german...)
a "playsforsure"-Teaser for Windows Mobile 2003 can be viewed here.
So.. give me a line if you would like to help or you just have an oppinion about the subject.

Hi,
I was just wondering if its possible to 'link' the XDA Exec with multiple Laptops so that the laptops all show the XDA's display? Lets assume all Laptops have wi-fi, bluetooth and run Windows XP.
Purposes may be to share a PP presentation, show a software demo etc. (I need to give a tutorial and demo in a room with no projector ).
I was curious if anyone has had any experiance with this? Any advice regarding the best setup (or software) would be great. Cheers.
Nobody any ideas whatsoever?
You could install windows media encoder on one of the laptops, and a remote control app. Then run the remote control app so you can see your phone's screen. Once that's working you can run windows media encoder in screen caputre mode, all the other laptops will be able to connect it it then.

You can play with Microsoft's "ActiveSync Remote Display". The tool allows you to work with your PPC remotely from your laptop/PC using ActiveSync connection. But you will need to install ActiveSync and this tool to every laptop
If it is a matter of presentation, why don't you copy your presentation to local server's shared folder and ask people to open the file from this folder and listen to your instructions, like Going to next slide... At least there won't be any hassle with intervention to participants' laptops and personal space ))
ps: if you do possess a PC you can run something like MS Netmeeting and establish AS connection with your PDA through AS Remote Display at your PC. Share AS Remote Display application and ask people to connect to your PC's NetMeeting or any other remote conference software
Let us know on your results
Cheers

Thats my last resort - I hate doing presentations like this especially when we have the technology to do something 'fancy' :lol:
I will give some feedback to let you know how I managed it (I will succeed)!
Cheers for the ideas!

I just had a look at AS Remote Display and it seemed this would do the trick - However, it does not work with Windows Mobile 5.0.
Does anyone know of a release of AS Remote Display for Windows Mobile 5? I had a look around but there does not seem to be much on offer which is compliant with 5.0.
Right, another problem.
I just installed an app called : Laplink Controller thinking as it offered the functionality I was looking for.
After a supposidly successful install I tried to run it - no joy. It reccommended I uninstall and re-install the software, so I did.
When re-installing I got a message saying:
Cannot load resouce library:
\Windows\MWRes???412L.dll
It now comes up everytime I do a soft reset. Anybody seen this error?
I saw that it was posted once before with no real answers. My question: Can the program Touchpad Pro be ported to Windows Mobile or can a program be made that has the same functionality. I am willing to pitch some funds to whoever will do it.
These are the links to the demo of Touchpad Pro and their website.

The Touchpad Media Server works similar but doesn't give full control.

Doesn't Windows Remote Desktop do that?

No - if you log in to remote desktop on thew phone, you will be logged out on the PC. With this you can work simultaneously on the PC and the phone.
But this program is nothing new - just a VNC client. There are already a few of them available for WM (including some free ones). Just do a google search for windows mobile VNC client.

Okay... Obviously I didn't read that site in enough detail...
With RDP (Standard windows remote desktop) on WinXP, it is actually possible to have more than one person logged in at a time.

Thanks man. I guess I just didn't know what to search for. I'll check them out and see if they do the same thing.
You can also use logmein Basic which is free up to a certain amount of computers. I believe 5 pcs. https://secure.logmein.com/createaccount.asp
LogMeIn is one of the many choiced that one has when deciding on remote access software. LogMeIn Basic is freeware, and allows you to install the client onto a single machine that can be access via the LogMeIn website through a browser. With a small memory footprint, the program does not interfere if you leave it up while you decide to load up a game.
Features
Although the full paid version of LogMeIn automatically allows you to transfer files by dragging, stream audio, network printers, etc, the free version has none of these features. Although there is a free 30 day trial, these features are nice but not necessary for basic remote access needs.
Speed
Bandwidth is a large factor in the speed and refresh of LogMeIn, and although I run fiber optics at home, there is still a small amount of lag between connected clients and the server. Loss of some keystrokes can be a pain if you are a fast typer, but this is no different then Windows Remote Desktop.
But the thing that I really need is for the computer to not be logged out while I am on it. I want the phone to be a touch pad/mouse/remote control for the computer. So any program that logs you out of the PC while you are remotely using it is useless to me and does not do what Touchpad Pro does. Hence why VNC is good.

Logmein does not log you out. You will see it on the screen and it also goes through firewalls.
Gotcha, thanks.
Good morning!
I was curious if anyone is aware of any remote administration software that I could use to admin my Windows Vista Home Premium machine FROM my mobile phone?
Apparently in all of MS's wisdom they have felt the need to strip the remote control software from all versions of Vista excluding Business, and Ultimate. There is afew hacks floating around to enable the remote access services but since the SP1 release this has further disabled the functionality and have not found much information as to restoring it.
Basically I am curious is anyone is aware of any thirdparty software that I could purchase that is A) WIndows Vista compatible. B) Has a Windows Mobile Client
Or if anyone is aware of a new method to activate the remote admin service on Windows Vista Home Premium WITH Service Pack 1 then I would also be interested in this as well. As it would save some money hehe and of course allow me to utilize the RDC application already loaded on my HTC.
PS. I love you whoever recommended me to use ORB on a previous post. Now all I need is for my bloody Canadian carrier to get the Dam HTC Diamond pro!!!!!!
P.S.S. Thank you is in order for everyone here, You have all been so very helpful with any questions I have had and appreciate all the hard work and efforts you all put forth. You have definitely improved my own personal experience with my phone.
I have tried few remote control programs but ended up getting this one. Its the best. Really fast, easy to use and many features. Its kinda expencieve. They do let you try it. You can try free VNC route too but its no where as good as Z2.

I like logmein.com it's free and pretty reliable you have to install a client on the pc and then you are able to login from ppc or pc

This site kicks butt i use it to work on computers at 8 soon to be 9 different locations
Update: After some deeper digging I did manager to find a working patch that has a bat file that fixes the services for ANY version of windows Vista to activate the Remote desktop service WITH Service Pack 1 installed.
http://www.unet.fi/fransblog/2007/08/30/enable-remote-desktop-connection-on-vista-home-premium/
I ran the bat file for my version which is home premium it took 30 seconds then added the port to my firewall as listed and poof able to use RDC for my mobile to do things on my home pc!
Thank you for the other solutions as well. Logmein is pretty snazzy i must say!
Hi, is it possible to connect Windows 10 Mobile to NAS?
Also, does it have photosphere?
Being able to connect to NAS is a must. I need to get a new phone and I want to know if Windows phone is right for me but I don't have a Windows phone so I can't test it out. If Windows 10 Mobile can do it then I will wait for Windows 10 Phone come out before buying.
Thank you.
