Microsoft Potrait a very good software from Microsoft, can use internet IP Phone and video cam over internet for all Pocket PC.
Yes one of our members from the forum/user group MyPDAcafe here in Malaysia demonstrated this at a recent user group meeting. Was impressed with how fast the video was able to be seen and very functional. Had two web cams setup, one on a notebook the other on an iPAQ PPC.

Hey everyone,
I got a Redfly and it is pretty cool on most applications, even over bluetooth stuff runs good. The problem comes when I try to run Garmin XT or Tom Tom I get errors saying the program will not support the resolution, but Yahoo Maps works great. I guess I was surprised that the individual programs handle video res and not the OS. Anyone know how I can fix it ????
Cool, never heard of it until now.
The applications do detect the resolution so they can use the proper skin... The apps adjust and use the appropriate skin images for portrait and landscape.. also there are the square screen smart phones. On my dell Axim x50v I have trouble with some applications because they do not support VGA. So this is expected.
Did you search the knowledgebase on their site?
I would assume that the redfly would be capable of running in a magnified version of the native res for compatibility.. if not, you will have many applications that will have problems.
I got a chuckle out of this message on their site.
"Please read all the safety information in this guide before using the REDFLY to avoid injury."
There is no video capability. Program compatibility is hit or miss. No drivers for the Diamond yet.
Anyone know where in Garmin Mobile XT the video driver is ?
Maybe if I knew which file controlled that I could make it work ??
I was wondering, and yes, I have searched, but is it possible to stream pctv from your pc to Android, the easy way? There are guides telling how to use VLC to stream tv, guides that involves using windows media encoder, suggestions about using Orb live, wich just doesn't do it for me and even suggestions using the expensive slingbox.
I used to have mytinytv ( http://www.mytinytv.com/ ) on my PC wich did a really amazing job. The client, however, is only available for windows mobile, how ironic. I've changed the streaming profiles with windows media encoder 9 and achieved really high SD quality on my HD2 over 3g, yes, just 3g. The only downside with the client was that you could not easily zap trough the channels, as the tv server scanned all the channels but not letting you reorder it. Anyhow, it worked great, great quality and 30fps.
What is possible?
Mytinytv install file is still available on their site, however, the latest forum activity was about a year ago or so, so, hardly no progress anymore.
Is it possible to develop such a program for android? Or, is it just possible to create an android client for it? the client should be able to connect to the server using login credentials, give commands back to the tv server, i.e. changing channels and stream it using the built in streaming player of android.
Have a look at orb dot com (can't post link as I'm new, Hello all)
Basically, program runs on PC, connects you to a website, this then streams all your movies/songs to other devices.
I used to use it on my PS3 and iphone, fairly sure it will work on Android also.
Can also connect through the internet so can access it from work etc.

I'm looking for the best software for streaming audio/video from android to android, t his question is 2 fold.
1 I would like to use my old POS zte racer android device with a resistive screen and 3.2mpxl camera as a video monitor in my babies room, over wifi hopefully
2 I would like to duct tape an old android device to the front of my RC monster truck and drive it through an apple store... on fire. Over 3G or perhaps wifi hotspot from my good phone, shared with the duct taped bumperdroid.
IP Camera app?
Whilst it is not a bespoke android to android solution one option available to you would be to an install an ip camera app on the POS device and simply view its feed via the browser of your good phone. I have had good success using this system monitoring a cat with a zte blade as the camera.
I would recommend the app IP Camera for the POS
(I would post a link but 1st post)
There is also a supported viewer app for your good phone although I personally just used the browser. Tiny cam monitor
One thing to highlight is with this solution you could also view the feed on a bigger screen such as a tablet / laptop etc.
"IP camera" seems to work well, I wonder if it will be stable enough
hw abt "JUSTIN" ?
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
Justin seems to be more of a broadcast system than a surveillance system, though I appreciate the thought and I think I could use that for something else, the IP camera app managed to run the entire weekend straight and it still going, and it provides authentication and live streaming to VLC that I can bring up on my TV and computers as well, ultimate baby monitor
Tell me the best apps (games or general apps) u have used in ur L920. Here are my 2 cents
skype
nimbuzz
facebook
yousendit
smartshoot.
Well i couldnt find much of good apps. If u found anything new, do comment below as everyone can try it.
Thanks..
what i use
it really says a lot when the best apps on my Windows Phone (Lumia 920) are the following:
Nokia Drive
Nokia Music
Photobeamer
Smart Shoot
All are made by Nokia and available for free.
Besides those I use the following a lot:
gMaps
Metrotube
Package Tracker
Tunein Radio
Only non Nokia one I really love would have to be Weave. Sexiest news reader out there.
Otherwise I use TuneIn, Though I wish it had a few more features such as tagging songs.
Oh and TripView for Sydney public transport is as excellent as the IOS and Android versions.
Frequently used:
Metro Tube
Nokia Maps -> Drive
Weave
Weather Flow
Nokia Music
Fhotoroom / Creative Studio
Photobeamer is one of the slicker things I've seen in a while.
Photofunia
Rhapsody
Weave
AP
Nokia Drive
WPCentral
Podcatcher
WeatherFlow
IMDB
UK Bus Checker
Ocado On The Go
Nokia Maps
There have been quite a number that I've enjoyed using so far travelling around the south of England.
By far and away, it's nokia maps and drive, but I've used NavigationShortcuts to pin destinations to the home screen.
Nokia city lense, and TripAdvisor are great for discovering what's around
ConnectivityShortcuts is my goto for turning on and off GPS, WiFi, and LTE.
Nokia Transport does a great job in London for replacing TFL.gov.uk, as does the UK Bus Checker
The microsoft Translator app works well going from french to english
I've enjoyed using Nokia Music for just some background music, and Tune-inRadio has ample internet radio lists
Primetube is a great free youtube viewer
What did I miss?
Connectivity Tiles - This is the best cellular, airplane mode, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth tile shortcut app I could find.
Weather (the MS one)
Notes - This app lets you add text into a live tile so you don't have to click anything to see your note.
WPCentral
IMDB
Newegg
Amazon
Paypal
AccuWeather and Met Office for weather info
XE best currency app
Facebook if poor on windows phone, I am sure it will improve
GPS toolkit for switching gps on and off
Settings tile for switch phone data, wireless, bluetooth and airplane mode on\off
Skype
Tripit
Tube map works well
Tunin Radio
And as said above, all the Nokia apps are great. love the maps and the transport app, but city lens and local scout are fabulous.
Is there anyway I can stream camera video from android online outside of wifi routher so I can see video from remote computer?
There are copule of solutions but those app only stream video from android to pc over the same wifi routher.
Good program for that is Ip webcam.
And you can also send that video to another android device with tinyCam Monitor.
But I want to stream it online so it could be accesed by remote computer!
One solution is with IP Camera Adapter so you could use video from android as your webcam in skype.
But this is too complicated because you must have your computer turned on, and skype opened.
Some other solutions have same problem because you must have your computer on.
I found one really difficult solution with port forwarding and you have to open host on .no-ip.biz...
So, can it be done only from android phone with one or two programs.

Check DroidCam
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dev47apps.droidcam
ADDED AFTER A BIT OF THINKING
It can work only on same Wi-Fi or USB.
No problem. You can try a workaround. Plug it to a computer where you want camera and install Teamviewer on that PC. Then view that computer's screen (and obviously mobile camera) via teamviewer on your computer.
That makes you to install only 2 softwares on 3 devices.
1) DroidCam on Mobile.
2) Teamviewer on computer near mobile.
3) Teamviewer on your computer where you are going to see video.
Your solution with DroidCam is same as mine with IP Camera Adapter because both makes your android camera as webcam.
Teamviewer is as difficult as with skype and maybe more.
I guess that there is no android app that connects android camera and remote computer but
somehow I am sure that it can be done.
Application Ip webcam is great and lacks only that option.
I found solution. It can be done with Airdroid.
You log on with your email and password on android phone and then you can access from everywhere in the world.
You can check your sms, photos, or turn camera on or off: turn light on, take snapshot.
There is no sound so that is big minus.
