If you want to use it over a network connection, give "IP Webcam" a try. It's free and relatively simple to start. Simply open the app, select start server on the bottom, and then type in the url in your web browser on your desktop. I was able to stream the feed through VLC, but it was quite choppy at the time. It may be because I am transferring a large file currently over my home network and it was bogged down. It gives the option of choosing resolution and quality so I probably could have gotten a smoother feed if I lowered those a bit.

ORB

Hi Guys,
Just downloaded and installed ORB. Brilliant piece of software. Only problem being im not a techno whizz so im struggling a bit. Is the only way i can gain acces to my pc from my touch hd by using opera and opening up the orb site?
Thanks
Nichio
yes
You can ad to favorites www.mycast.orb.com
Then you don't have to type your password all the time.
It's indeed a great piece of software.
I'm streaming my satelite from home on it
Also music or movies(even vob files) he plays.
regards stef
Thanks Stef. I have already done that, just didnt know if any of the genius techies on here had came up with some kind of App if its possible.
Thanks Nichio
I am now looking into connecting my sky box to my. once i have done that would it be possible to stream that to my touch hd?
if it has an ethernet and it can stream ike my dreambox,then yes you can stream.
Open notpad and make an line with your sky box/drea,box ipadres like this 192.168.1.10/video.m3u and save it to anyname.mp4
The configure orb.
and add that mp4(video)file.
regards stef
Great Thanks.
I have another problem with orb now. i installed it and all was fine. How ever first time i tried to reboot my compter i am now missing a windows system config file. Anyway around this?
Nichio
I used Orb for a while but found it was caining my cpu randomly so had to remove it. I'm now using TVersity. The interface isn't as cool but when browsing from you mobile it's perfect cos you don't have to render loads of graphics etc. The only thing about TVersity is that you need to open ports on your router and use something like dyndns if you've not got a static wan ip.
What I liked the most was that you don't need to go through a third party website to access you stuff. I also use it to access music on my PC from my Wii.

Using EVO as a nursery monitor

Any suggestions on how to use the EVO to watch what's going on with our babies in their nursery if I put a web cam or some other sort of video camera in there? Preferably a very cost effective solution and one that will allow me to move the camera to a different room if necessary.
There are apps in the market for this.
Thanks, which one with what hardware do you recommend?

what about QIK? it allows you do stream live videos on the internet, so you can log into a qik account via a pc and see what is going on through your Evo 4g....
correct me if I'm wrong on this

I want to watch using the EVO. I'm sure you could do that very easily but that would be an incredible waste of resources.
Probably an X10 camera or similar. Check out smarthome.com
I wonder if my logitech wilife indoor security system would work with this....
Linksys IP webcam for hardware and IP cam viewer lite from the market is my setup.

App that has an Android TV version will only open in Mobile Verson

Hi all. I'm brand new to XDA and to anything having to do with customizing apps, but very eager to learn. I have been testing a few TV boxes like MeCool M8s Pro L, ubox (HKG), A95X Max etc... One thing I have noticed is while all claim to be Android TV boxes, some play apps in the Leanback version (such as MeCool) while others seem to be glorified mobile phone replicas.
One app, in particular, would be the MyTunerFree radio app. On the MeCool it can be used with a Dpad remote and works perfect, however on the A95X, it only opens in the mobile mode, with no option for the android TVmode, and you need a mouse toggle app, or actual mouse to use it. I have been searching online for ways to force an app to play in its TV version only, but cannot find much. I have seen suggestions with using app cloner, but even then it doesn't force the TV mode, just allows you to add an on screen pointer, which does not allow scrolling (hope I am making sense)
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to force the app to its TV mode while using a box that seems to have a mobile operating system? Or is there a developer setting on the box I could change to force all apps into TV mode?
Sorry if this has been dealt with. I searched, but didn't see much. Keep in mind I'm a newbie. Cheers
M
You're right but not all apps some apps works with all versions of android in other hand some you need to download it and install by the tv box
You can try "Set Orientation App" to force this into landscape mode.
This is the exact problem Im having with Pendoo X10 MAX, one app I always use with android tv is mx player pro, but this crappy little PendooX10 always launches mx player pro like I'm using it on a mobile device, and the option to launch in tv mode is missing from the mxplayer settings menu.
Sucks that nobody else is having this problem, was hoping someone had a fix for this by now.

Sideload a oriantation / rotation app and set it to landscape mode. Should work with MX player and other apps
