ways to watch live TV on Phone - HTC Excalibur

Ive been using several ways and software for my smartphone to watch live TV this are the ones I have been using hope their are helpfully to you.
first mobitv
Never actually purchase this one but I heard its good so If you waht to subscribe this is the site

Second is mobile free tv
well for using wap sites I use wap trick. its good for music videos and stuff like that in low quality
http://www.mobilefree.tv and waptrick.com
Third is Skyfire
I found that skyfire Its one of the best ways to watch live tv in case you dont have skyfire I cant give you the cab file you will have to suscribe in: http://www.skyfire.com/register
after that some usefull links to use with skyfire are
the ones that I view the most using skyfire its this one cause it got discovery channel and cartoon network and stars

on the left side select your country and just play the chanel using skyfire

The best way IMHO is Sling Mobile:
http://www.slingmedia.com/go/spm
You'll need a slingplayer and a TV subscription at home. It works great - use it all on the time on my Dash.

Skyfire and Justin.tv works for me.

a hope this help you
take a look at http://favchannels.com/watch-tv-live-online/

Try this:
http://www.wsltv.com/
They offer lot of free live TV streams from many countries for PC and Smart Phones.

Anyone who can get this site to work on our WM6 Hermes?

Hi all,
First off, check out this site I was turned on to
(Go to it on a PC though to see how it works...)
www.tv-links.co.uk
It's a TON of tv shows/movies that you can stream for free.
Click on a show... any show, and see how it opens a new IE window and streams. This is where I'm a little hazy on what's happening. I'm not sure what's going on "Html-code-wise" to know why it won't work on my Tytn.
I've tried PIE and Opera, and set them both to be recognized as a desktop, but nothing will stream the content. It does open a new window, but then nothing happens. I'm doing this over HSDPA so I don't think speed is the issue at all.
This would be a great site to be able to get to our Tytn's. Can anyone figure out how to do it, or at least tell me what is happening that is not yet supported by mobile browsers?
the flash player in WM6 is not the full fledged desktop application to my knowledge. this website utilizes some Flash 9 components that just aren't in the mobile version. (again, to my knowledge).

And this is truly a shame. I had tried months ago to view ComedyCentral's Jon Stewart clips, to no avail...for the same reason.
I wonder how long it's going to take for Adobe to give us something for WM devices that works with the new security features they've built into the newer desktop versions.

Hmmm ... Flash Player Mobile, eh? I DL'd the trial, and I'll check it out with Jon Stewart tomorrow.
Thank you VERY MUCH! I hope this works, Diem! If it does, I owe you a beer or two.

[UPDATE] OK, I installed the Flash Player Mobile app this morning, and have tried to view the ComedyCentral videos. FWIW, I still cannot view them. The site still comes up only with links to upgrade my Flash Player wherever a link to a video should be. There does not seem to be any way to DL the flash files to play them locally.
Maybe I'll browse through that second URL left by Diem, and see if I can find anything there that works.
FWIW, I left a Q with Comedy Central, explaining the issue and asking if they would/could do anything to support us users with WM devices ... maybe provide an alternative media format that will work with our devices. I'll post back to this thread if/when I hear back from them.
Also FWIW, I did NOT try to view the URL provided by the OP ... so maybe he's finding success with this app.
Sorry Diem ... no beers for you yet [/UPDATE]
so I am to understand that the flash player that comes with WM6 now is the Macromedia (Adobe) Flash ActiveX 7.0 for Pocket PC, and this mobile version does not rely on ActiveX?
Dont ask me nothing I'm just waiting for a sweet cold Heiniken

Ahhhh, but THAT deal was only good if I got to view Jon on my Hermes. As it didn't work, you'll have to be happy with H2O
So if you want a glass, come on over, I've got a whole tapful
Seriously, I wish Adobe would catch us up with their desktop offerings, or some of these video sites would post in a format we could use.
Oh well ... it is what it is. I've already got plenty of other stuff that works fine, and keeps me using my device for more hours in the day than is good for me.
-pvs
I don't think the videos shown on the tv links site that I posted have anything to do with Flash. Dapzmob was probably the closest by calling Divx. Hope you guys figure out your Jon Stewart stuff nonetheless.
In anyone knows of a player that can play Divx AND integrates with PIE through a plugin, please let me know!

Streaming Radio problem

Hi - this might not be specificially related to the WM6.1 update - but I hope I can gain some insights.
I used to stream a particular radio station from my phone. It is obvious that the site was not really designed for pda/phone use but it worked soso despite the site graphics/buttons not displaying well in the mobile browser ... the streaming was choppy but OK. I am not sure this is a problem with their site or with my device (Dash) - since other sites stream OK, and this site streams OK from other devices and PCs.
But recently the page for the streaming site glitches out such that I cannot navigate or get the stream started. Might be a browser setting or something else. I can't tell.
Anyway - I was hoping someone here using WM6.1 and the included IE browser could give it a try and lend some insights.
Here is the bookmarked URL that I use, that used to start the audio directly:
http://gateway.andohs.net/player/?sid=5864&nid=2920
Alternatively, you can start here: http://www.ksfo.com/article.asp?id=53139 and click to 'start live audio'
I'd be interesting in know if anyone here can see the page and/or get the streaming working - particularly on a WM6.1 T-Mobile Dash, but also on another device (as a reality check).
Depending on what others see, we can discuss whether this is just me, or something quirky with the WM6.1 browser or something else.
Thanks!
Try this link instead...

I have never in my life posted anything profane online, but Perry, ... Holy Sh*t ... how in the world did you find that link? I've been emailing those guys forever and no one ever replied.
OMFG - my life just improved immensely! I've spend the better part of 2 months trying to get bluetooth stereo working with my streaming sites for my daily run ... now I can listen to one of my fav radio stations again.
Thanks so much! Profanity was definitely warranted here ; )
Another Site ?
Well, I might as well push my luck.
ANother streaming site - different problem
http://www.kfox.com/pages/streaming.html
the browser brings up the site with a message that says something like "Flash lite player play back flash files that are created for mobile devices"
Any solutions, insights or alternatives?
Thanks again!
Try this one, I think it's KFOX (KUFX):

Well, happy to help :^)
For this one I brought up the player in the URL you provided, then right-clicked on the 'Play' button to get the link properties. These stations often use reflectors or other indirection, so you need to get as close the the music as you can to start poking around :^)
My own personal quest was similar a few years ago, trying to get WMVY to stream.
Enjoy!

thanks - that was a nice try but something is amiss. Apparently KFOX also goes by KUFX ... but when I click directly on the radio station's site their special player says a specific song is playing (and the song is playing). When I click on the URLs you clipped or on that usliveradio site - the KUFX link brings me to a windows media player that actually plays video - and certainly not the song the radio station is currently streaming.
The search continues.
Thanks for the help! And I definitely want to encourage more help!

I use The Mobile Stream Center for all my radio streams. I use TCPMP to save the link in a playlist so I can have all my favs in just a click It list all streams available in the 50 states.
I am not sure how this helps the thread. If the specific radio station I want is not on the list, then my problem still remains.
I was hoping someone could offer another "miracle solution" like the first radio station I listed (they somehow were able to extract the URL in a different way that worked like a charm on the Dash). This other station - just as popular - seems to pose more problems.
The other station is: KFOX in San Jose (actually the real call letters seem to be KUFX) http://www.kufx.com/cc-common/streaming_new/index.html
Thanks.

Perhaps you should have looked and saw how it helps the thread It is listed 98.5 KFOX (KUFX) [San Jose, Classic Rock], and it has a PDA only stream (WMP), which means load it in your Dash and play away. By the way the other station is listed as well 560 KSFO (KSFO) [San Francisco, News/Talk] in both PDA (WMP) and MP3 streams.
Like Isaid, I use TCPMP, Windows Media has problems with some streams that I have never had with TCPMP (in options/ file assoc on TCPMP make sure you select HTTP and MMS).
yeah, you're right ... that link probably helps a lot of people - just does not solve the current problem-link that I was posting here. Thanks.

You know, as the OP, I have to again thank this community. At least with the KSFO station, I am just a happy camper listening while I run etc on my Dash. This forum has really saved me so much heartache and in this case added some productivity and enjoyment to my Dash use. Thanks again! (now, if I can only get KFOG working, my life would be perfect ; )
KUFX (KFOX) from thestreamcenter.com works on my Dash. It's down toward the bottom of the CA list.
Is that what you meant by KFOG or are you really looking for KFOG?

1. Thanks for seeing through my typo. Yes I meant KUFX/KFOG
2. the bad news is that, for whatever reason I can't get that link to work on my dash. The Icon implies it is a WMP site but the browser same popup window appears (same as the one from the radio station site). The url in the address bar is: http://www.kfox.com/cc-common/streaming_new/index.html?refreshed=yes
if you get something different, please let me know the link that workd in your dash (I am using WM6.1 btw).
Thanks!

Usually a look at the properties of whatever's playing will reveal the final URL. Many streaming feeds go through one or two levels of indirection. In extreme cases you might need to look at the source HTML of a page in order to discover the link...this happens a lot when there's a JavaScript popup player, for example.
I have a Bluetooth-enabled car stereo and use the Dash all the time to stream internet stations into the stereo.

I used the link for KSFO radio in SF on my BB 8800 and got an error message as follows: "Error Playing: The media playing is of an unsupported format" i believe the radio station uses Windows Media Player, and an MP3 streaming format.
Any ideas anyone.

Music P2P for dash?

Okay so far my dash is proving itself to be almost as useful if not more than my iphone with all I have done to it. But one major thing I like about the iphone more is an app called islsk. which is a port of soulseek, a p2p client. So anyone know anything similar for dash.. something that connects to a p2p network and lets you search and download music on the go? Nothing copyrighted of course that would be illegal. I know there are programs like mobiphant and g2 for ppc but I cant find anything for smartphone.
I try the same thing but I think theres no p2p for smartphone I try ussing wmtorrent but no luck....
Ummm I heard of some people being able to download stuff on their phone using a p2p software... Ummm let me search this for you..
No go Yet ?

Skyfire Browser Questions/Issues

does anyone use the beta version of SKYFIRE browser? i heard its the best browser out there yet
and also you can edit the joggr to scroll up and down on websites right?
Hmm
Interesting!!!
Yet still a skeptic when it comes to giving out my phone #. Also, it goes with the remote server which is a no no for password sites. It would be fun to try it but also limit you.
well yeah but there has been reviews of the browser as well as interviews with the creator of the skyfire browser on youtube
people are waiting for it to release the official version
from the videos, i can tell that its easily the easiest browser to surf the web with on a windows mobile phone
That's just it...many will wait for a final release if they keep their word and won't charge for it. They are hoping big wig mobile companies will pick it up. Keep the middle men happy and still make it a successful browser.
i signed up for the beta last night. cant wait to try it. looks like it could be cool.
I wonder how easy it will be to use without the touch screen or stylus (IE, with the Dash/Excalibur).

I tried to join their beta 1 before. After giving their my phone #, they sent me a SMS messenger saying they have enough beta tester already.
I joined up with them some 5-6 months ago, and yet i havent been invited to either beta....so perhaps someone with a copy could post it?
Good afternoon.Could anyone upload SKYFIRE?
there is no cracked version available because all internet data is transmitted through skyfire where they authenticate the user and deliver the optimized mobile content.
skyfire browser over 5.99 proxy

Ditto...........
i wish someone knew the answer...
to be honest i dont think a lot of people here have it. if you got it working over wifi post some screens of it or a review or something, let us in on it
i just use this internet3.voicestream.com and name it T-Mobile Web And its good for whatever and i figure that out by myself ... so give it a try and oh yea tha connection is the internet ,,no auto detect ..... and its also good for all operas..

Can you elaborate on these settings? Do you have skyfire and it works with these changes? Are they different or additions to the standard tzone proxy?
My review as i just tried it a bit at home yesterday was that it is much better than opera and IE. I recently tried Opera and i still find myself using the 6.1 IE instead because the fonts and the screen is just much better.
Now if i had skyfire working, i would use that all the time. it is so nice to see the complete web page available. I think it definitely competes with the IPHONE's browser, if not surpasses it. I have no problems with my information showing up on their proxy servers, because how much information are you going to be passing through them, its not like im going to do online banking on my phone. load times were fairly fast, but i was on wifi, don't know what edge will be like.
As far as streaming video, it does work. i went to mlb.com and saw the video play which is cool, however, it does studder a bit when playing, not as smooth as through a pc. but overall, it definitely is an advance in the right direction.
Al Right I'll Explain ......
First : Delete Alll Proxies.....( No Need For Proxies )
Second : Go to Connections.. Create A New Connection Under GPRS..---> Name It ..T-Mobile Web. As It Is.. Access point Is ..internet3.voicestream.com.. no username no password .....matter of fact . just put that in and done!!!.
Third & Final : Go to what ever browser your using (try internet explorer first) go to menu >tools>optoins>Connections.... uncheck box ... Network>>>The Internet.. Now You should Your Page And Now You Can Breathe Now...LOL Your Welcome

Apps/Games to present the HD

Hey guys,
I'm searching for some Applications and Gamez to present the features of my HD.
Friends often ask me what I like so much on my HD and why I did't buy an iPhone. I don't know what to answer then... Always showing the Game Teeter is so boring! I testet the iPhone for about a week and wasn't as thrilled as I'm now with my HD.
Searching in the XDA Forum wasn't very successful to me
Greez and thank you for helping me...
a good start would be to take pictures of ur phone, so u can show a little but of the functions and themes.
A nice program is 'Pocketscreen' which can be found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=328627
Thank you for your post!
I rather thought about the case when they are standing next to me and want to see what my HD is able to do... Something spectacular, you know...
Maybe we can compile a catalog of such "viewy applications"!
oh, lol, sorry then, i missunderstood ya
mhhh, so i think u r searching for advantages of the touch hd, aren't u?
well...if u wanna impress ur friends u just have to show them windows mobile...
what's so special about it? try to get tomtom or other apps working on iPhone...
Take a look at this.

too bad games are running slow as hell on the touch hd.........sigh.........
So you are looking for some "mine is bigger than yours" application just to show off?
Sorry, couldnĀ“t resist.....
Just go to opera, copy a random link, open an email, page the link in a message and tell them to try that on their iphone
Coreplayer 1.3.0 and put on any dvd rip movies and make them jealous with envy, as movies are gorgeous on the high resolution screen
If you have highspeed internet on your hd, just show them a youtube vid, again just show them how inadequate the iphone is as a mediaplayer.
MP3-trimmer, cut a song on the fly, save it as a ringtone and then tell them to call you, watch them squirm
I got bejeweled2 on mine, another addictive game.
Virtual pool looks pretty slick.
When they tell you there is this great program which can identify music, just say its shazam and also avaible for winmo, If they don't know then whip it out tell the hd to identify a popular song on the radio or something from another mp3 player.
I also just bought an Touch HD, i used to have the normal Touch for 8 months, was thinking of buying the iphone too, instead after MANY reviews i stayed with HTC and bought me the touch HD.
Things you can show him is the resolution, open opera with a fullsize forum and show how much text you get on your screen.
Multitasking is what an iphone can't do.
Stuff i like on my windows mobile device: MSN, fring/skype (free calling over wifi) i love VNCview for PPC so i can see my desktop PC on my HD, also love the game UNO, also LOVE Funambol ! so i can sync my calendar/notes/contacts,... all to one server and that way to my PC all bidirectional... Funambol is also availeble on iphone but only for syncing contacts because apple wants to make 99 dollar a year on their syncing service... and most of all, i love that i can keep finding settings to adjust my windows mobile device just the way i want it...
what i don't know if this is all possible with a jailbroken iphone... if it is then there isn't any big difference i guess
good luck with the showing off haha

I know these pages full of applications. Which of them are good to, lets say, "show off"...
Thank you all for your suggestions... maybe got some more!?!
!edit: where can i get coreplayer 1.3 from? u know what i mean!?! plz pm
I wouldn't bother with CorePlayer; full-res video doesn't work well enough yet.
Look at the stickied video-encoder thread and create a file for free that plays full-res full-framerate in WMPlayer on the HD. Bear in mind that most people won't understand the difference between this and what the iPhone plays though.
Then read a book at them. I had an iPod Touch and never found any way to read books that wasn't woefully inadequate.
Web pages in landscape, clicking in links without zooming in etc is a great demo.
The Hologram app is pretty cool; do a search around here and you'll find it.
But to be honest all an iPhone owner has to do is show someone Super Monkey Ball, Aqua Forest, Enigmo etc and you've lost. No amount of "But you can't copy-and-paste" is going to bring you back from that one.
just record a video when going in the freeway at 120km/h then show them.
lets see the iphone do that with that quality
Cool! Thank you for all your Replys!
I think this stuff will hunt 'em down...
1. Use Hush SMS and send Ring 0 SMS to an iPhone.
2. Show some real GPS navigation software.
3. Compare list of supported bluetooth profiles on your HD with iPhone.
Use GRemote to control your pc - see here
how about installing ORB on your home pc and you can stream every music and video file to your ppc through wifi, music is even possible over edge.
that way you can have unlimited portable media.
i use it and it works great !

Well, better NOT say this to any iPhone user (hint: Backgrounder http://code.google.com/p/iphone-backgrounder/wiki/Documentation )

Actually, there's an ORB client for the iPhone too.

Yeah, at the gaming (and, of course, the capacitive screen) department, the iPhone is just unbeatable.

Please do NOT ask for warez. Especially not with CorePlayer. Those folks do deserve being paid for their very hard work.
