Video screencapture possible? - General Topics

I was wondering if it would be possible to capture everything that happens on the screen of my XDAII to a movie file.
I've got RESCO image capture, but thats only for still images, while i'm looking for a video
(For a presentation for school I need to demonstrate how TomTom actually works, so i want the audience to see what you see when you use it)
anyone heared of a tool that could do this?
thanx!

Try Pocket controller-Enterprise: http://www.soti.net/ that has video capture.

Great program...also allows you to monitor and stop processes, which is handy when you want to uninstall proggies and you can't, because the program is running...
Highly recommended

Is there any way to watch You tube video?

I was trying to open with Opera, IE, WMP. Don't really know which application I need to watch it...I believe there is a simple answer for the question. But, I just don't know it...
So, no1 knows?

Have you read this?
it seems that all the solutions there are for downloading, converting and then watching. But I need it to work on-fly, without downloading, the way we watch it on our PCs.
Now Windows Mobile Phones Can, so why can't we?
I know I'm getting sick of seeing those stupid Verizon adds for the EnV that shows the huge YouTube logo on the screen, and wondering why my WM phone can't. I know my phone can do hundreds, if not thousands of things, that the EnV can't, but as long as there is ONE thing that a non WM phone can do that mine can't, I feel like less of a man. Where do I sign up mfrazz's 12 step program?
and is there any way to watch p2p tv on ppc like on pc?

does anyone know how to format the window so that I can watch the whole video (on youtube) using Opera?
Orb Lets You Play YouTube on Your PPC
I use a program called Orb to play YouTube on my PPC. It loads on your home PC, then you use any PPC browser to access it. It's pretty dang sweet. I have had hardly any problems with it.
orb.com
Well, there are a lot of ways to watch you tube video offline on your PPC. For example, you can just download a youtube video using youtube grabber on your PC then convert it to avi using some endcoder, and then watch it with TCMP or Core PLayer.
However, the main point of the thread is to get a way of watching youtube video on-fly being online with you PPC.
So, far the best way of doing that is using new Opera. However, it's not a perfect way
orb is the way to go. orb does it on the fly also. check it out.

It really is. The only problem I found about it is that the PC must always run the application and be online to be able to watch video from PPC, which is sometimes a problem for me. The rest is awsome.
the other nice thing is you can also view your webcam anytime also. I use it for sucurity purposes . very nice feature.

I think downloads are the only way to watch you tube videos. Try this site: mymobileclips.com, free registration, specify the format you want your videos, and you can get Google, Myspace, Ifilm, Dailymotion, Break, Metacafe, too.
I personally believe ORB is by fair the best thing to cross streaming\PPC lines...I have absolutely no problem watching youtube on my PPC using orb, and talk about an iPhone?? Who needs that when you have an 250 gig hdd with movies, music, pictures, and then are able to watch your local cable service thats at home while your out and about on a lunch break, and then to be able to access your PC and browse and download files from anywhere............ORB IS GOD when it comes to media and mobile devices....not to mention to gain access on my xbox 360 using orb as well without switching my external from device to device, and not using the lame media center....orbs great....just thought id mention it.

I've been trying orb and im a bit new to it. But from my understanding, orb will only work if you pre-selected the videos on your PC first right?
Is there any way to watch ANY youtube video? For example if you searched for one and want to watch it, you cant use the standard browser to see it. How does orb come into play for watching videos on demand? Will it only allow us to see videos that we have pre-added on our pc with the orb plugin?

Orb defines videos, pics, audio, files, etc defined in a specifc folder....when you setup orb it then scans the folders to save the content locations onto the orb server, so what ever you put in a specified folder, orb will pull it in for you.
With youtube, just download the plugin on orbs website for IE, install.....then login into orb on your ppc.....go to videos....then it comes up with an search for youtube....google...yahoo...etc, type in what you want to search, it then show it infront of you, click what you want to watch, then click play stream.
No pre-added video for youtube, just an search as if you were at your desktop.

Webcam without paid software

I saw this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=509981 on how to use your phone as a webcam without any paid apps. It says to use mymobiler and an app called Vh Screen to capture the mymobiler camera stream (it will recognize the feed as a webcam). The problem is it suggest using mymobiler but with the Fuze/Touch Pro if you turn on the camera it doesn't stream through mymobiler (you just get a black screen but the menus show up).
So I did the following and it works as a video camera but I can't get sound yet.
1) Connected Fuze to PC using the tv-out cables. I use the freeware DScaler on my PC to get the input from the tv-out cables onto my PC: http://www.dscaler.org/dscaler4.htm
2) Used VH screen capture driver to capture the dscaler feed http://www.hmelyoff.com/index.php?section=8
3) Use MSN Messenger and it works as a 'video' camera but no sound was being transmitted.
Any ideas? I think the problem is that DScaler is not transmitting audio.
Thanks
I don't know about the way you are doing it, but Qik does streaming video and audio from your mobile phone for free.
www.qik.com
thanks - I know about Qik...it's very hard on batteries and you can't use it for other messenger apps. I was hoping to get a universal 'webcam' so you can use it for regular chats and skype, etc.
haha i'm not sure where i picked this up from, might have just been fuze mobility
BUT vzochat.com does free video messaging! they have a pc client and a winmo client. i installed it and used it with two friends - one has an HD the other has a tilt. the tilt camera had issues but the hd worked great, minus some feedback (prob volume too high) and htey have a pc client too.
that sort of kinda not really acts as a webcam but it's still cool!
lmao yeah vzo chat might have been from fuzemobility and i think the poster of that article is the original poster of this thread. Again vzo chat only works in vzo chat. I think the OP is looking for a webcam that work with other software like yahoo and msn and skype.

Yeah I did post on Qik and VZO in the past Both are good for what they are. I'm hoping to take it one step further so it can work in more apps though. I'm going to tinker with some more wires tonight while pressing 'record' in the video to see if that gets audio throughput.
OK- to get audio just plugin in a 3.5mm headset. Here is the entire thing step by step: http://www.fuzemobility.com/using-your-fuze-as-a-webcam/

use Leo as a webcam

I know, there are many solutions out there to use any mobilephone's webcam, but I didn't found any free ones and maybe one of you use his/her Leo as a webcam already (for Skype at PC eg) and can recommend me a one!?
thanks
Oh, that would be great!
Hmmm I got a one called WebCamera Plus, but worked not very well in trial, because there were many "scratches" every few seconds. That was very ugly. Did s.o. else have a better opinion or knows how to "solve" this problem? (It has a nice interface at all)
mobiola webcam for windows mobile works perfectly with skype and msn. although its a trial version - but funny anyway
OK I think I can sum up that both commercial solutions like "WebCamera Plus" and "Mobiola Webcam" are pretty useless on the HD2, cause the both seem not to work fluid an smooth, the picture gets stripes all the time and it lacks a lil bit too much for me.
So I searched a long time for another solution and finally found the way of the xda-member pafke, who says:
This is in short how it works (and it is free):
Download mymobiler: http://www.mymobiler.com
Download VH screen capture driver: http://www.hmelyoff.com/index.php?section=8
Start mymobiler and activate your mobile camera
Grab the part of the screen you want with VH screen capture
Now you have a webcam stream which you can use in any program like skype, msn etc..
Look at this video as example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wveANUBUIJM
Instead of using the microsoft remote tool use mymobiler. It is much faster.
PS: You need active sync to communicate with mymobiler

you can find the quotation here!
And this one really works fine, BUT it's not really comfortable! So you can make the Program track the windows from MyMobiler even when you open applications in the front and it's much more fluid than the other commercial programs and you can stream it to ICQ, Skype, chatroulette and whereever you want perfectly, BUT there are even some cons!
Like the camera is very sharp and I would like to make it more smooth and overlay it with a red/orange filter for make it a more wamer and then there is the problem with the size, I tried it serveral times to rotate (with MyMobile -> rotate) but that was a whole crap! Unfortunally resizing is not the best skill of the VH Screen Driver.
Maybe some of you got along with that problem or know an application to set after the VHS Screen Driver outgoing stream to rotate/scale/Colorize filter and make a new stream of that which can be used of skype, icq and all webcam related services and programs!?

Video Converter-works on phone?

I use Coreplayer on my Verizon Ozone for viewing
downloaded videos. Problem is, I'm seeing more and more .flv's that use the ON2 VP6 codec, which Coreplayer doesn't support, (and, according to the developers, probably never will).
Is there a simple video converter that would work on my phone? I have Super Converter on my home PC, but I'd like to find one that works right on my phone.
Thanks!
Verizon Ozone\WinMo 6.1
lol most converts take about an hour on a real pc
on a phone it could take 2 days
I think you missunderstood my 1st post. I'm not talking about full size vids from the PC, I'm talking about short 320x240 vids that I downloaded right to the phone from the web.
Any on-phone converters, anybody?
