update: black screen issue to.
it works great !!! thanks for letting us know about it.
You have to choose a channel from the list, i couldn't find the functionality to type in a custom address.
you also might have to let it buffer for a couple of minutes, but that depends on the channel. i'm using a sgs4g.
All I get is a black screen, audio is fine.
there does seem to be some functionality missing from this version, however as it is still in beta i'm sure they can be forgiven.
As previously states there does not seem to be any option to insert an address or channel id manually, also clicking on a sop link in an android browser produces a message that there is no software installed to handle the function...
I don't know enough about android to know if you can tell a browser (dolphin) for example how to handle the request? Or to send the request to the sopcast app.
works fine for me, took me a while to find the channel with the match on tonight .
If they can provide an channel input window, it'll be perfect.
I was watching the match on my PC, which was oddly 30 seconds behind the Android! As a result I ended up watching it on the phone.
Good resolution, not jerky, Liverpool won!
The images don't do full justice to the quality (think taking stills off video), but they will give a good idea.
after looking a bit deeper in to the app, there is a url entry bar, its under menu - local media - menu -url
This also allows you just to enter the Sopcast channel number also.

I had to input the whole URL, just the channel number wouldn't work for me. Still, it's just copy and paste from the browser, so no problem.

Same here on ICS (TF 101).
Working flawlessly on Xperia Mini Pro, though.
+1 no video on TF101 ICS
working fine on SGII running GB
I've just emailed sopcast support about it.
Maybe if enough of us report the issue it can get resolved soon.

I've been working for some time developing a web-tv service. It started only available for Windows XP/Vista and now it is available on Windows Mobile, Linux and Mac OS X.
In terms of the Windows Mobile version some of the more interesting features are:
- live TV streaming at 128 kbps and 512 kbps (suitable for EDGE/3G/HSDPA/WIFI)
- users can play back content that was aired a maximum of 7 days before
- available for Windows 5/6
- support for VGA devices such as the Diamond Touch
I hope you can enjoy this service.
http://www.pbxtelecom.ro
Setup instructions:
1) Download and install the the right version for your handset by pointing your mobile browser to http://www.pbxtelecom.ro (or alternatively download the CAB to your computer and copy and install it on your handset).
2) Go to Options - Options and choose International in the PBX Network dropdown.
3) Create an account if you already don't have one by going to Options - Options - Options - Create Account.
4) Depending on your location choose the closest Publishing Point to you by going to Options - Options - Options - Refresh Servers and choose a Publishing Point from the dropdown.
5) Choose either broadband or mobile from the Connection Speed dropdown.
doh!
Hello there,
The link to download brings up a download site - I have been able to find the qvga version but no matter what I search, I cannot get the VGA version for ma advantage!
Otherwise I would test it!
Thanks
Does the program support English. I noticed the site does not (as I can not find an option to change language). So just curious as to whether the program has adjustable language or at least a seperated language file where users can make their own conversions?
The VGA version is the last one: http://pbxtelecom.ro/tv/updates/ptv_mobile.htm
SiliconeClone, Windows Mobile and Linux versions are exclusive in English. Windows XP/Vista has a language selector (it pops up the first time you run the application) and defaults to English. Perhaps you are using older versions of the software.
LE: there was a DNS problem that denied the serving of the CAB and sent the user to another project that I am currently working on ( http://www.sharemobile.ro ). Press refresh on the download page and try again. This only occured with some hosts. Sorry for the confusion.

I wasn't using any version. Just wanted to know about English before I downloaded it. Sorry at work and couldn't test it so was trying to get a little more info.
Thanks
Has anyone had a chance to give this a try? I'm far from a programmer or developer and would prefer to not crash my phone. Maybe I'll be a guina pig and try it. If it matters, I'm running Win Mobile 6.1 on my XV6800.
How could you crash your phone by viewing streaming? It's a simple CAB file that installs on your phone - nothing more.

It is an application and can mess things up if it has real problems. I'd just prefer to not have to hard reset if there's a serious glitch in the software.
I downloaded and installed it, but I have no idea how to use it lol. What server am I supposed to be logging in to and where do I get a name / pass etc..? I was expecting something oldschool winampish but I think I might have misunderstood what the program is.
Tap 'options', 'PTV options', 'options','create account'.
Enter the details you want to use and you're god to go.
enter your details again in the boxes and select save details and then 'connect'.
You get a list of what appears to be Euro channels, select one and 'connect'. WMP opens and starts to buffer.
That's as far as I got, nothing would play.
I have it working, but I can only find one channel: Realitatea. It's also choppy and buffering a lot. This happens using both EV and Wifi. And it's set to the lowest connection speed.
Where would I get a better channel list? As an FYI, I'm using the Win 6.1 ROM supplied by verizon.
The buffering happens because of the long distance between Romania (where the servers are) and US. We should have the service running in a few weeks in US as well.
TIP: in the mean time you can try viewing the re-runs since they are not live and although it will buffer more in the beginning, the playback should be more smooth. Another tip is to go to WMP and choose 56 kbps connection - forcing the streaming server to stream at 34 kbps (lowest speed).
For those that just want to see it as a demo and don't want to go through the hassle of creating a new account try logging on with username "test" and password "asd".
PBX TV version 1.01 released:
- fixed an issue that prevented the correct launching of WMP

this appears to be a java browser? am i correct?
is there a windows mobile cab somewhere?
Bolt has always been a Java browser, that's why I don't use it. It feels too limited for me.
I have made a bundled for local install. However, the notify still connects, but it should minimize the download. Full Cert version (dual signed) attached. Unzip, run the jad using your Java (JBED/JBlend). It should use the local bolt.jar file.
Java or not Java, I've been enjoying Opera Mini a lot, and been beta testing BOLT (not so good that time). I'll test again now that they have much richer options (including disable picture/image, which is important to me)
Does anyone know how to get the youtube flash content working in bolt? When I click on the selected video it ask to "Open URL"? And when I click yes it says, "Opera Invoke error". Any Ideas? Do I possibly need another program or something to get this to work.
it suck
i can't play video every time i click on play it loading to 100%then again show me to click plsy button then again circle goes on....why?HTC P3400
Youtube does't play too.
where's the back button?
UPDATE!!!
Updated BOLT 1.7
Extract, run the bolts2local.jad file that will pickup the local jar instead of going to the net.
Enjoy ..
BOLT 2.0 Beta
BOLT 2.0 Beta features include: socket transport protocol, copy-paste operations, favorites/feeds organization, inline editing, find in page feature, download manager, password manager and up to 3XL magnification.
Really fast on my Artemis WM 6.5.5 using Cloudyfa Esmertec Jbed. Excellent for reading and replying to xda-forum.
Can anyone suggest a suitable MIDlet manager that works from SD card and handles passwords?
Cheers
Tom
P.S. See added attached thumbnail of post being written in BoltBrowser:

Yes - Boltbrowser automatically updates to 2.3 which introduced a dowload site to help them make some money. Now that Skyfire has abandoned WM I use Bolt more along with Opera mini.
Every browser has advantages and disadvantages. I like the RSS feeds and large fonts.

How is the screen update performace on pc of nexus?
its not very snappy, slight delay before rendering new windows.
Whoah! Kudos to you, it works on my HTC EVO 4G!! Thanks a bunch!
wow i've been researching and looking into a possible solution to windows mobile mymobiler
www.mymobiler.com before making the complete jump to android and your project looks like a really good solution to mymobiler for me compared to the android screencast app
i was looking around on your blog (added it to my rss feed to keep up) i'm really interested in this
i'm a part time android user (dual boot windows and android 2.2) next time I switch over to android I will definitely install this and check it out with tinyvnc
keep the updates coming great job
and if possible add some of the ideas from mymobiler a lot of people are really interested in seeing a mymobiler for android and it looks like your working on a great solution
Green lines on HTC Desire.
Thanks for the job.
Is it possible to install landscape mode for looking on TV?
CU Ulli
If there are much people interested i think i can implement it
UPDATE: The app is already on the market, search for vnc server
Dear lord, this app is FANTASTIC! Works great (though the interface is a tad rough).
And just for fun, I couldn't help but try a camera feedback loop between my laptop & Evo running a VNC connection:

Does this allow remote streaming from a dreambox? That would be awesome
Oh,
hi, dreamDroid can be found on the market for quite some time now.
As there actually is no Streaming-Client capable of playing MPEG-TS... no sorry, it doesn't. But as soon as there is a possibility i will implment streaming!
Can you do like this, i see that is possibile

First of all thank you for this great app!
I have two minor remarks:
1: I can't stream recordings. I have read this problem is caused by a problem in vPlayer. Is this correct?
2: If a stream over 3G/H with a VPN connection it takes some time to load the stream and when the stream is playing you see a lot of squares. Is it possible to change a setting to fix this?
any plan on future version to support Enigma 1 as well?

Correct, vPlayer has some problems with blanks and special charcaters like the german umlauts (äöüß...).
On Way to solve this is to change the filename-scheme for recordings on your box (future recordings should work than) to anything else than the default value.

3G is just not made for streaming high-data-rate videocontent... i don't know anything u could do to solve that (besides the fact that every data-plan i know would be used up within minutes or at most several hours of streaming).

Well, originally dreamDroid was designed in a way that allowed adding support other protocols pretty easily.
While at some point there would be some more work to do than just a "simple protocol implementation" it would still be possible to do so.
But there's some other issues:
1. I do not have any enigma1-based STB anymore
2. I do neither have the time nor the motivation to implement a second protocol
3. Until now no one else felt up to implement enigma1 support
dreamDroid is an open source project and everyone is welcome to join it, as long as he's sticking to some rules and conventions . Just contact me.

It's called "Timers" .
That part will get a major overhaul with the next version (released in about 6-8h).

It's good job. Now stream function working. It's little bit laggy but it's okay. Maybe you can improve the performance with next releases.

Wow, this app is absolutely amazing.
Works very well here.
I've tested streaming only via WiFi. Sometimes it loses the stream.
Please do not try to stream any HD Channel. I think, this wont work.
Thanks to the dev.
One Bug:
sometimes my timer.xml is away after make a new timer.
I think, it's because Ä,ö, ü or something like this.

Great app except cannot install vplayer to my htc wildfire. Is there any alternative?

Long-press an item and choose between copy to clipboard or share link as text. Note: such a link (differently from when you send it via SSH) can be only used from the same device where it has been created OR from the same LAN, if you share it to another PC;
Use the Dashboard to interact with downloaded video (audio extraction/conversion/mux and file management);
You can copy/move/rename/delete files on the external sdcard.
Features
Search for YouTube videos within the app;
Download on your device;
Remote download on another PC via SSH;
Multi-threaded downloads: maximizes bandwidth available and minimizes YouTube’s speed throttling;
Support for almost any format/quality available from YouTube;
Audio extraction to aac/ogg or conversion to mp3 (menu available via single-click on items in the Dashboard tab);
Mp3’s ID3 tags edit;
Mux Audio-Only and Video-Only streams into a complete video (to enjoy HD resolutions available as separated streams only);
File management (menu available via long-click on items in the Dashboard tab);
Handle download link: copy and/or pass it to other apps;
Video list filters by format, quality etc via (left) sliding menu;
Many preferences to customize usage.
Known issues
Some very long running downloads may be forced to PAUSE state if the app is not kept to the front for a certain amount of time. In this cases a manual resume is needed;
It's possible to use the external (removable) sdcard as download destination folder, but that’s one caveat: only the app’s private folder will be available. IMPORTANT note: this folder will be deleted by the system (together with all your downloads) if you uninstall the app. For the moment it’s not possible to choose a different directory on the external/removable sdcard;
The stream traditionally used by the app for the video preview if often missing nowadays, so a low resolution video-only stream is being used in such cases.
Anti-features
Are not supported for download all videos that:
require login for age confirmation;
implement encrypted streams (some complete movies);
are not available in your country;
are live events.

Maybe dumb question, but why is Google Music not playing my converted mp3?
Background: I use your newest version available over F-Droid 2.6.1, autoconverted to mp3 (from WebM) @192 kbps. Google Music finds this converted .mp3 file, but won't play it. With VLC player no problem at all.

Hi.
I really don't know what could be the issue. I've always played anything thrown by FFmpeg with ease. Anyway I'd like to do some tests; I think I'll be able during the weekend. Thanks for the info.

Hi there,
Thanks for the new version.
One quick question thought:
We have to uninstall 2.7 first? Before installing this new one? Correct?
BTW what are the major changes?
Regards,
FJorgeR.

First results look good (vevo still working fine).
Notice that mp3 is now post-processing option on the download manager (no more options showing up on the main setup screen).
I'm going to continue my testing.
Great work.
Cheers.

No need to uninstall. The App's signature is the same. This beta-3 has the internal version number subsequent to the v2.7, so uninstall would be required for the other way around.
Changes are some bug fixes/optimizations (not visible), thumbs into the dashboard and progress bars that now should work better.

Yeah, I think this gives a cleaner App's usage. What do you think?

Thanks for the quick support.
And yes you are right much cleaner, but at first I thought that wasn't available any longer (was ready to post that problem here, but stumbled across it by acident).
Thanks once again.
Regards.
FJorgeR.
Tested it with a vevo video, works perfect!

I don't have anything against usage of other apps, but I've already told you [ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44998991&postcount=739 ] that you do have this option, clicking on a video entry from the dashboard (and you said it was awesome).
