Hi. I've tried searching this forum for answers and even found a thread about "all secrets" of capturing Pocket PC screens. However, I have not been able to find any information about how to video record the screen on my phone. I'm running WM6 on a HTC Hermes. I'd like to be able to video record my screen so I can do a review. Thanks!

first hit
Thanks a lot! But I'm not really sure that program works. It doesn't allow you to set the file to which the program will be captured.
Any other programs? Preferably one that isn't still in beta.
it's a google search if the first link is not good enough try the next and repeate untill you found what you are looking for or loose hope
that would most people who dident already know of a program would do for you anyway
I do appreciate your insight, but I was hoping that someone who actually knows about the subject would chime in with their expertise. Anyone can do a google search and exhaust the possible options, which I've done. Hence I've turned to this forum in hopes of finding someone that has done this and can lead me in the right direction.
i agree but the pro and cons with posting it in the general forum are
pro
more exposure so more people who may have insight can contribute
con
lots more posts in this forum then in maybe the hermes forum so your post will have a shorter time before being pushed out of the main page
Have a look at Soti it offers a video capture mode which works very well http://www.soti.net/default.asp?Cmd=Products&SubCmd=PCPro - add to that the ability to skin the virtual device you can make very slick looking presentations/ screen captures - Mike
Thanks! That what I was looking for.
Here's what I had to have video for: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zD5zhHl4RU4 . I wanted to demonstrate the accuracy of Live Search with GPS on my Hermes.
That is a neat example of GPS in use - I like the video - Mike
cool vids...another reason to love my tytn II
I've been trying to get Desire's PDF Viewer to work on a N1 ROM (CM 5.0.5.3) with no luck.
I can start the app but get FC when trying to open a pdf-file.
I pushed the following files:
/system/app/FilePicker.apk
/system/app/PDFViewer.apk
/system/lib/libpdfreader.so
(been trying to install the PDFView.apk separate too)
Did I miss a/some file(s) or do you think it will require more than just pushing some files?
Why bother? Quickoffice (which you can pull out of any of the Modaco custom roms, even the prebaked ones) will handle PDFs and most other text based files
Well Quickoffice kinda suck cause it doesn't always show everthing in a pdf-file (think it converts it to some web format? )
And I want the pinch-to-zoom function ;P
IMO you're better served just using QuickOffice, it should render them out just fine unless they were saved with the "adobe compression scheme and not just optimized. then you'll get odd rendering. As for pinch, I believe theres a mod for that if I'm not mistaken.
Well that might be true, but I can't decide how others save their documents. Several times I haven't been able to view the whole content. For example when I download the timetable for the buss line I can't see the days and where the buss stops - which is kinda worthless.
But my topic isn't about how well QuickOffice works or not, but how to make PDF View from Desire to work on a N1 ROM.

Please stop posting. It's EXTREMELY frustrating when someone makes a thread and other people try to talk them out of it.
Anyway, on topic, QuickOffice sucks ass. It pixelates the crap out of files when you zoom in. The Desire ROM PDF viewer is the ONLY PDF viewer available for Android that doesn't completely destroy PDF files when zooming in. (And that is including the half dozen PDF viewers on the Market).
Unfortunately no, you cannot export the PDF viewer from Desire onto Stock ROM.

Really? Well, excuse me for offering an alternative and my opinion. I didn't realized that you were such a prick and that user here weren't allowed to express their thoughts. I'm not trying to "talk him out of it", merely saying, that there is an alternative that will do more, and arguably works just fine with standard files. If you want to know whats more frustrating, its morons like you, who think that they can boss people around. I've probably been involved in more "hacking" and "modding" arena's than you can even think of, and I don't need some self-absorbed narcissist to tell me I'm not allowed to share my thoughts on an open board. So, please, stop posting your stupid derogatory thoughts, which are less than helpful and spurious to say the least.
PS. I don't know what you're doing with QuickOffice, but theres no pixelation or defects for me on any file. Perhaps you should try getting your head out of your bum, that might clear the images on the screen up for you. Also, your comment about QO is offtopic if you bothered reading the post right above yours, and not on topic

Sucks to hear that :/ How come?
Then I guess I have to live with BeamReader, at least I've been able to view the full content of all pdf-files I've tried so far with it.

I have to say (not trying to flame) but I am going to have to agree with Paul on this one. So many times people start a thread such as this one and no where did the guy ask "could you please give me a list of alternative apps I could use" he is strictly wanting to discuss this app and how to get it working on a different rom.
I assure you he knows there are other apps to open PDF files, that was not his issue nor his request.
My two cents

I've had 0 issues with Beamreader, I use it to check the bus schedules for my town every day, it renders them flawlessly, images and text. QuickOffice F's them up majorly.
I use PDF To Go, which works great performance-wise and it's rendering isn't bad either. I wish it had PTZ though...
I also wish you could get the Desire PDF viewer extracted successfully...
BTW, Quickoffice is a joke...
Cant you just flash the desire rom on the nexus one to get the desire pdf viewer ?
Im not sure, Im just confirming. I too want to flash the nexus one with desire rom, but Im waiting for the final build.
Found a reader named RepliGo Reader which seem to render good. And best of all, it have pinch-to-zoom.
I am looking for a very specific app to assist me with interviews. What I need is an app that can open a Word or Excel style template page. The page will have a list of questions and the space to fill in answers just like any normal paper application form.
Name:.........................................................................
Address :.....................................................................
..................................................................................
..................................................................................
Tel:................................................
Etc.
Now this bit is easy I have seen many app's that can do this, the next is the difficult bit,. I need the app to allow me to use a stylus to handwrite the answers in the fields. It does not need to recognise what I have written just save the page as I have annotated it with the handwritten answers. I can then open the template again and conduct the next interview.
Is there such an app out there? If not would anyone be interested in creating one? If this is a new idea then whoever wants it can use it. Thanks all.
Sounds like a good idea that can easily be accomplished using the Google App Inventor.
If I have a few spare cycles I'll see if I can throw it together.
Nice idea, would be a handy little app for many i'm sure.
Would be nice for it to have a "done and save" button so it auto went to the next form, and have an edit mode to edit the forms themselves (making it applicable for any survey, data collect use).
I'll have a look at the app maker today and see if a noob like me could knock something up (allthough its probably best left to those with experience).
Definately a good idea though ^^
EDIT: Oeer, think i may need to readup on the Appmaker for a week before i start ...Spose have to start somewhere. Consider me outof the dev picture for a mo ...allthough need any art/buttons i can help anytime xD
I've been waiting for an idea and I think I finally have one. I am going to attempt to make a Android App using Web Scraping that will allow me to navigate and use the forums on Roblox (.com if you really want to look it up) better than I can now. Not only are the forums pretty bad in general but they are even worse on my Android Device (Samsung Galaxy Player). Can anyone give me an pointers or advice? I'm not sure what libraries I should use... This is my first big attempt at coding
Oh, Obviously I would want to give it a feature to reply to posts but I'm not sure how login for that type of thing would work...
Hello Nick64. If I were you, I will focus on builidng an app for getting the Roblox Hair Codes and Roblox Outfits IDs automatically. I think that this can be easily done using some program languages. I am saying this since most of the Roblox forums are not working anymore while on the other side, the players are still searching for these kind of codes. Just saying.
Edit: I just saw that you have posted this a long time ago. Anyway, someone might get an idea from my reply.
Hello,
I'm looking for a special pdf-reader and maybe you could help me.
I use the TF300 to read orchestral music scores (e.g. from imslp.org). But if I'm looking for a specific page (which page number I don't know), I must wait a lot, because only some pages are rendered. The same problem appears, if I go back in my pdf. (Of course, nobody will scroll back more than one page, but this is exactly what I do)
I think of an app, which loads the whole pdf into ram (before and not while reading). Is there something like this in the market?
I hope my question is clear, even though my English is so bad.
Thank you a lot!
Simon-PC
