An android apk for direct video stream - Android Apps and Games

Hi,
I wonder, is there an apk like camera one, thanks to which while pressing on it's icon (or hidden in quick button) one can turn on video and thanks to wifi direct stream the footage to sb's pc or phone?
I plan to go abroad and want to "sight-see" live with my family at every hour (like sth unexpected happened or want to quick capture moment, give greetings etc). -u get it right? but plz no SKYPE coz one has to have an account, log into it etc etc.
Video call isnt an option coz I quess international one would cost a fortune...

Qik app - how does it work now ?

Hi,
Ive had Qik on my Symbian and it worked like this, I go in app on my phone and start recording and that is immediately transfered on my profile qik.com/XYXYXY, so everyone who is on that webpage sees what I am recording in real time. How does it work on Android with Qik app ? I go on my profile but no video is showing ? And whats up with that "Sharing" option ?? It takes names and phone numbers from phonebook ? I dont get it how is that sharing when you can see videos only on qik.com/XYXYXY website ? I am REALLY confused.
Tnx

all i know is, on recording in high quality mode, it doesn't even record because the screen is BLACK. i uploaded a video in normal mode and the quality was crap.
And did you manage to stream it in real time ? I am interrested only in streaming, I dont want to upload anything to server if I dont have to.
Tnx
did even see the option for streaming live videos.
Well, it has that possibility, I have used it on my Omnia HD.

Look at this movie, I click Go online but I dont get those red letters saying that I am streaming live :-/

[Q] Video Chat and Camera

Hey guys, picked up a G Tablet as a holiday gift for someone, and for the money I have to say the hardware isn't too bad (software is tolerable thanks to all the hard working devs out there).
I am having a problem with video chat though. The FFC was a big selling point for me, but as of now I can't find a video chat app that works. Fring gives video, but the speakers just crackle and no audio is transmitted or received. Any idea guys? Would love to at least get Android -> Android video chat going.
In addition (using TnT lite firmware) whenever I start the camera it works fine, but if I exit, then re-enter the camera all I get is a blank screen until reboot. I'm sure software will fix this, but I just wanted to make sure I wasn't the only one.
the yahoo messenger with video add on works ok.

[Q] Should I keep the infuse?

I only ask because this will be my third infuse, first one the screen broke, second one was stolen.
I like the infuse however I am not a fan of these problems:
Can't play youtube videos in the background
Youtube videos, or other flash videos don't just start playing by themselves
So I was thinking about possibly another phone, though I love this phone (screen, camera and all)
I was also thinking about trying to flash ubuntu (it would be a PC! at least this what I think anyways)
I was just wondering if there were better phones out there under AT&T for the money, not sure if my insurance would allow me to jump from one phone to another so easily... need to talk to the guys at the shop.
Thanks for any input
I don't know what you mean by YouTube does not start by itself but no android phone let's you play a video in the background. I would keep the infuse but get insurance on it.
What I mean by that is
On a PC (desktop or laptop etc... pad even)
A video starts playing by itself when you click the link, or refresh the page, this is not so
I mean perhaps the flash hasn't quite gotten there yet and I should appreciate the fact that I can even stream youtube videos in the first place
And the other part is, once I have this clicking, as soon as I minimize the web (press home) the music stops, same thing happens when I press the power button
(I like to look up a lot of music on youtube and listen to it in the background) while performing other tasks
thanks for the reply
Flash on Android is suspended when out of focus. There's nothing you can do about this, and it's unlikely that will change since Flash was discontinued for all mobile platforms.
flash is discontinued. It it still works and is useable just won't be updated

unfortunately this isn't just an infuse issue. Most phones i've tried won't let you watch youtube videos in the background, only if it's the main app open.
Get another Infuse. They're great phones and dirt cheap now. The only other one that's remotely better than the Infuse and the same size is the Skyrocket, but that one is $250 at the moment...and AT&T doesn't seem to be handing them out cheaply. Or you can drop down in size and get the S2...but that one is still $199 because it's a good seller. We should be getting our official GB release sometime in December so grab another Infuse and help decrease the surplus inventory.

[Q] dowload "watch later" youtube

hi all
i'm interested in downloading my "watch later" video's directly to my handset while on a wifi connection for later viewing while i'm commuting to and from work.
this used to be possible but the latest update has removed this option.
the use case:
identify a youtube video i want to watch
add it to watch later
if my handset is on wifi, it should start to download the video direct to the phone.
(a nice feature would be to only download the audio if possible)
does anyone know if this is possible ?

Whats the difference between this app and "screen mirroing " of chromecast apk

Differences are :
Chromecast mirroring is only one of the features of this app (you can also mirror to many other kind of target devices, broadcast to Internet, and record)
Official Chromecast mirroring gives better latency
It's works for some devices for which Chromecast mirroring is not possible with Google's app
You can choose to stream with internal audio OR microphone audio OR both
You can change many settings such framerate, bitrate, and resolution to tweak quality
Software encoding provides many live video effects
probably few other differences but I think I told you most important
VLC
VLC crashes after I change the screen orientation. How to fix this?
Everything is ok. I was using old version of VLC, after updating it works properly. Sorry.

Galaxy s5 audio issues
I am able to stream my screen to xbmc and chrome. However, no matter what I do I am unable to get the internal audio to stream. I am using Moar Rom 6.2 lolipop galaxy s5. Is there something I could do to get this app to work with audio?

It might be because of the ROM you are using, but I am not sure.
I'll try to check if this is a problem related to this device, but it would be great to know if it is the same with Samsung's Lollipop ROM...
I can only get it to have Su access like 1 out of 8 times. But Su actually grants access evertime it just seems the app doesn't know. Then when it does work I can't get it to actually stream to twitch. It just says "Mirroring is paused" when I press play. Then if I press stop it automatically goes back to the opening screen giving me instructions for if i'm not rooted or Android 5.0.

Sorry for the wait,
I am able to stream to google with some lagg, but i cant do the local desktop recording.
1.-I can open the app.
2.- I select record on local file option.
3.- I start the recording.
-its recording well if i don't start the camera app on the desktop.
If I do that it crashes or doesn't save the video or saves but doesn't play the full video.
My version is 2.1.5 .

Hi Sloosh,
In the quest of helping you fix this problem , I will send all the details of the device . My device android version is 4.1.2 and its on a samsung camera s3 . For what i saw , I needed the code to run it on root that you guys provided(start service.sh) .I think the problem lands on the class you used for the recording on the application . Once it starts the screen recording and the camera app at the same time there could be a conflict on the class or the resources.
*Updated my app
I did all the process and at the end when i open the camera app it looks like it works well. When i see the video the video is just damaged , it doesn't play the full video and stops each 3 seconds . I have to play it again and again and the camera part doesn't show .
I would like to help you more but the Screen Stream app is driving me crazy . With all the bugs and the publicity it takes me like 5 minutes to run the application . If i want to use it again the next day, I have to run startservice.sh again.

Hi, I'm having issues with the audio, if I have it set to internal and enable it to play on my device as well it will echo really bad on the stream (using it to stream on Twitch). Its not so bad if I don't have it play on my device, but I really like to have it play on my phone as well when playing a game.

Camera uses a lot of things, it might also be an opengl issue because it uses opengl for video effects.
So if I understand well now the camera works well, but you have troubles with recording a good video file, is it correct ?
If so, can you please let me know the settings you are using ?
Have you tried to enable hardware encoding option ? It should be disabled by default with your device because it is running Android 4.1, this is a quite old Android version now and causes some troubles...

What do you mean by it will "echo really bad on the stream" ? Do you mean it cuts audio or produces scratches on the stream side ?

On the stream side, it sounds like its playing the audio twice, one is faint but you can for sure hear it. It almost sounds like it my phones microphone picking it up, but I do not have it set to mic/internal (mixed), I only have it set to Internal and then check the "keep on phone" option. If I do not have that option selected it works fine.
