I think it's this one.
There was a thread a few weeks ago on the same topic.
This file was linked there.
Didn't test it yet.

I'll give it a go just now. -> edit: not working here
Btw. any way of doing the same thing via wireless/bluetooth? That would be awesome!

once we get 2.1 this may or may not work

this works, but... X10i has a super video camera and the output on usb is about 0.6 FPS at 320x240 . X10i has HD 720p @25 fps.

[Q] Any way to video chat with PC?

I've tried Movicha and for whatever reason the PC only receives the audio from the gTablet, not the video.
I've also tried vTok. I'm able to get A/V on both devices but the picture is rotated on its side (and, no, turning the camera doesn't work).
I just now tried Yahoo Messenger as well and it has the same issues as Movicha (though I realize it's in beta and only officially supports the MyTouch 4G and EVO)
Is there any other way to do video chat with a PC on the gTablet?
I don't know what to use either. Been messin with video chat between gtab and PC all week.
What I've discovered:
Yahoo --> PC works kinda
I could never get the video addon to mesh with the yahoo msngr app quite right, had to reinstall for every use on tnt lite and with vegan 5 won't work at all
when it did work audio was unreliable and video eventually got unusable
vTOK --> best audio but video was atrocious
movicha --> seems like it would be best but I have same problem you do and can't receive audio from pc to droid either (dont have web cam to test right now).
I guess fring worked with skype last year until skype pulled support so verizon could have exclusive access or some BS like that.
In other words bad news all around
Try tango
Edit: Sorry looks like its cross mobile platform but not on pc

Also what about gchat I used my xoom to video chat with someone on a mac

Here is a version of yahoo messenger that works.
PS - If at first it doesn't work, change to back cam and then back. Or shake the device. Or do something. If you just give up after 2 seconds of trying, I highly recommend you get the ipad.

Yes.................
I read that Skype finally updated their Android app to allow video calls. We use skype on the netbook, and I look forward to being able to use it on the gtablet soon for video.
Has anyone tried the new release of Skype yet?
At this point in time its only for gingerbread and is available for only four devices.

Allshare Play

Is it or does the new version of Allshare app blows in comparison to the old one (S2)?
I'm assuming I'd have to root and deodex my phone in order to copy the old one?

Agreed.. I want the old AllShare back! I tried pushing the apk, but it only starts then FCs. :crying:
Here's a couple of the bad things I've noticed:
The new one is not backwords compatible with the PC version of the Allshare app, therefore installing another web based app
Any video I stream from the phone has to buffer every 10 seconds, unlike the old one, same video, is silky smooth with no hicups
I can't browse by folders!!!!!!!!!! I have scroll through hundreds of videos!!!!!!!!
How would Twonky compare for DLNA streaming?

I pulled the Dlna.apk (allshare) from my sgs2 and it seems to work fine. Only problem is its hard to see some of the fonts for some reason. Still usable though and am attaching it here in case anyone wants to try. Just copy it to system apps. No force closes for me and yeah you need to be rooted. I felt the same about new allshare so I use the old version
Oh and the other issue is your media server will see your device as i9100 since its from that device

They must have made changes from Epic to SGS2 if the epic apk didn't work.
Also, I just realized the other day that you can go into More Settings -> Nearby devices -> File Sharing. You can also share that way. However, playing with it I am not able to stream MKV container videos to my TV. Whereas with the Allshare App I attached above works no problem. You can stream MKVs without issue. The only issue is that allshare is hard to see because of the white theme and the thumbnails look a little pixelated. Its works fine though
Yeah, I miss original Allshare too. I can't seem to find my Onkyo Receiver to ouput to.

[Q] M8 Android TV Box USB Camera Help

Hi guys, I have an M8 Android TV box and is working perfectly aside from a little bug/driver issue with my USB Logitech C710 camera. I want to use the camera for Skype/take pictures with regular camera app but the images come out with distorted colors. I tried using different USB ports but the problem persists. Is there any way I can fix the drivers manually so that the picture looks like normal? I tried the camera with my laptop and it works fine. I also installed every known camera app in the playstore and the only one that used the camera normal was Snapexwebcam. If anyone can help me and need more information to reach a solution please let me know.
Thank You for your time
Respectfully, XianLen
PS: My TV Box is rooted

Export high FPS video from HTC 10?

Hello guys, i'm new to XDA, and i have a simple (hopefully) question.
When i use the camera to take slow motion video, i get an option in the default player when the video is playing to go to normal speed and slow motion, but if i play the video in vlc or something like that, it's slow motion. How can i get the full FPS video? Thanks guys!

Hello and welcome to XDA Q&A section of the Forum.
How do you copy the file from your phone to the computer? Also, if you can check how large it is on your phone and then compare to the file size on your computer, is there any difference?
