For that matter, are you able to use all features with TV-Out?
The four catergories in TV-Out are PowerPoint, Photos and Videos, Internet, and YouTube.
Is it just these four? Or are you able to use TV-Out with SlingPlayer Mobile and GPS as well?
Has anyone tried? thx

Hi
am wondering if youcan run an external video signal into the XDAII ? For example could you run composite video cables from a vcr to the XDA to view video on the device ?
thanx
mark
well i suppose it would be possible if anybody made it as a sdio card or a cf card using the backpack or as a backpack
never seen one though
doubt there is that big a market for it
If you just want pictures without sound you could use the LifeView FlyGrabber CF card with the CF backpack. The FlyGrabber comes with connectors for S-Video and standard composite video, but there is no audio support. Bit pricey though.
just point the camera at the tv = live video on the XDAII
but seriously, i was thinking of using my wifi card to stream sky tv to the device.
i have sky on a usb capture card on the pc, and it can stream to messenger or ivisit like a web cam....or stream to a web page
sadly pocket msn doesn't support web cam, but maybe i could get some other software to pick up the stream
not sure what i could do with it maybe just watch sky in the bath
video conferencing is not really a go with the camera being on the wrong side of the XDAII
suppose thats one of the reasons the new 3g phones have a cam in front and on the back
video conf is still pretty closely related to 3g because it take up more band then grps can handle
and ms have no plans for 3g support untill 2006 or something
Streaming Video (and sound)
Hi,
You could put up a local streaming media server and then watch
it in the Pocket Media Player. Please note you may not get very
good throughput for the WLAN on the SDIO.. I have never seen
anything above 300kb/s...
For sound you can set up Winamp with a Shoutcast-server, then
tune in with some WLAN SDIO card with the fantastic and free

Is there anyway to output video playback from the ppc?
The spectec SDIO card is only for pics and presentations, I'm looking for something that can output real video.
I know that you can do it now with slingbox, but I want something portable that i will be able to connect to any TV (like a SDIO card).
Is there any product that can do that?
regardless, I read somewhere that you can stream video from the ppc to your TV using an HTPC (Home Theater PC) and some program called ORBIS. Do you have any idea what are they talking about? I can't find the link for the discussion...
Thanks for any help
There was some news story recently where the reporter was "shooting" video live on his phone and it was being broadcast on TV. This obviously means it's possible, but turning your PPC into a server is a different story.
There is the ActiveSync Remote Display, part of the Windows Mobile Developer Power Toys, but I never tested it to stream video. If it works on the some technology as Remote Desktop, you won't be able to stream video. But try it out.
Good luck,
Matt
oh, i m not alone. i m looking the same thing as well. i m looking (still looking...) something (not SDIO) that can output the pda screen display (and also sound) to tv or monitor. i m using o2 atom, so the only "connection" is either via a special usb cable or a bluetooth device.

Please make sure you follow my articles. CoolCamera is what you're looking for - it's the best solution for this.
I don't recommend PC -> PPC controllers because of speed issues - not even the, in this respect, fastest (read my remote controller roundup, it has been referenced several times in my articles cross-posted to here) Soti Pocket Controller.
I don't know if this has been discussed anywhere else but...
Does anyone know how I can get the video from my Tilt to show on my Pioneer AVIC-D3 display? I have my Slingbox setup and working on my Tilt and I can get the audio to play through the Bluetooth to the receiver, but I don't see a way to get the video to transfer over. Maybe a wired connection to the Aux Video Input jack?
Any ideas would be appreciated!
Thanks to all...

It's http://orb.com. It turns your home pc into a streaming media server. Hands down better that slingbox.
With ORB you can connect your TV via a TV Tuner Card, or Have Live Secure Webcams with motion capture.
Also If you would like to stream and capture cam video from you mobile device to web you might want to check out comvu.com
You Must Never Ever Owned A SLINGBOX!

You must not own a SlingBox, Orb will never ever be better than the SlingBox. Orb buffers all the time, with the SlingBox you get perfect video all the time, don't you know. The newly just released SlingPlayer mobile software is the 8th wonder of the world, Orb don't even come close dude.(LOL)
Hi, I just bought a flame and am still working out how to drive it. Is there any way to use the VGA camera in it for videoconferencing in programs such as skype, msn messenger etc? Failing that can I connect it to my PC and let the PC use the camera in it?
Thanks!

Good Evening,
I recently seen an advertisement for www.joost.com, where you can stream some full length movies to a mobile phone. It was tested with an AT&T Tilt using skyfire. Well...I downloaded skyfire, just to find out there is no support for vga screens just yet.
Are there any mobile browsers that will allow streaming video, or maybe a plugin for opera mobile??
Thanks gang!
Two side notes,
I had heard Opera was capable of playing music built into a myspace page, etc with an included flash player. Mine does not however, am I missing anything?
I had also heard the Fuze was supposed to have a dedicated You-tube application. I also have not found this. Again, am I missing something?
Thanks!

skyfire does work on vga it just messes up when you rotate the screen so start it in wichever direction u want the screen to be
use orb you can stream any media from your computer to your phone its free
and you can download the youtube app search on here
Skyfire will load, but how would I manage to get to a website without an OSB or the physical keyboard(which would mess up the screen)
I only want it for that one website...opera is fine for everything else
As soon as i enter in a website with the osd...it messes up the screen.
Any ideas?
can we use hd7's primary camera as webcam through any app??
What do you mean by "as webcam"? If it means - "like any cheap USB webcam to work with desktop Skype app" - the answer is "no" (however, with appropriate drivers and phone software it's may be possible - check this topic for details).
If you mean "like an IP-cam", to be able to watch video/picture stream from WP7 - yes, it's very possible with current API but I don't know any app on the markeplace. And I'm not sure about app necessity.
You'd have to install an app on the phone that streams the feed from the camera over the network, and an app+driver on the PC that received the network stream, and fed it into a virtual camera device.
Theoretically possible (although the quality would probably be awful) but not easy. Webcams are all of what, $15 these days?
IP-cams with 3G/4G/Wi-Fi capabilities definitelly are not worth $15 Android, 4 example, has a nice app called IP Webcam so I converted my old, cheap and unused Android phone to the nice IP cam (but no, my wife doesn't cheat me, of course! LOL)
Why not use TANGO app?
PocketCam will let you use your WP7 as a webcam to your computer, and you can use it with MSN, Skype, etc.
