Since my car stereo is not working right now, and my favorite radio station streams over the internet, I was wondering if there is a way to listen to it using my Tilt.
I tried browsing to the website using my phone, and once I click the "Listen Live" link, I get a connection error. Any insight appreciated.
Radio Station: 93.3 WMMR

download gsplayer or tcpmp player. I listen to shoutcast on both of these.
I'm trying to listen to WHTZ-NY Z100...
http://www.z100.com/cc-common/streaming_onesite/index.html?refreshed=yes
They used to have an embedded link, but I think it's been changed to some dynamic link or password. Can anyone figure this out? It's a WMA stream, too.

I already had TCPMP installed, and I just tried gsplayer. Neither works unfortunately.
Can someone that has either of these programs working on this Kaiser try to connect to the stream I listed above?
Try going to the settings in TCPMP and checking the unchecked boxes in the file associations tab that pertain to what type of media you are trying to access or stream in your case...
Have you tried www.thestreamcenter.com/pda ?
Click on PA, then scroll to 93.3 WMMR
It worked for me using WMP.
I am able to stream a NJ station, WFMU through TCPMP, but I haven't had any luck with either of the other two stations mentioned in this thread. If you want to test out your player's streaming capability try http://mp3stream.wfmu.org
It appears that the links for both of the other stations mentioned in this thread load a player that in turn accesses the stream. If you can get the actual stream's URL I'm thinking it will load fine. Those URL's wont stream in WMP 11 on my PC either.
One thing I did notice about TCPMP is that it didn't initiate the internet link, I had to connect using IE and then start the stream. I was accessing via EDGE, don't know if you would need that step with WiFi or not.
Your sig says att. Did you uncheck the proxy in the connection setting manager and try it?
Winamp Remote works really well on my Tilt. It's not radio, but you can stream your music (and videos, though I haven't tried any yet) from your home computer right into Windows Media Player.
did you download the .dlls that tcpmp needs for this type of stuff and copy them to your windows directory?

To those that still have this problem, try installing flash Player 7 to your device (fp7_ppc_en) you can google it. Don't install it to your storage card. I tried and it am getting some sound and not the message to download flash player. I had already had flash player downloaded to the storage card.
Hope this helps.

I was able to find the stream on this site. After I click the link, WMP opens and starts to buffer, but then comes up with Failed.
Do I need to modify proxy settings in order for the stream to work from this site? And if so, will that affect any other web browsing? I do not use MEdia Net, so I'm not worried if it affects that.

Hi.
After hours of searching and reading here and endless talks with my mobileoperator without any luck, I turn to this fantastic community for your help.
My mobileoperator offers a "newspackage" which includes access to livestreaming of some of their tv programs. These are supposed to be viewed in Streaming Media, but I can't get it to work. I get a "Network cannot be found" error. It works on my Hermes, so I'm wondering if this is due to the lack of videodriver or if it's something else TyTNII related? All I can find here when searching is solutions to YouTube viewing problems.
Does anyone have any ideas or something I can try?
I'm using an original HTC WM 6.0 ROM (5.2.1620 18125.0.4.2) DK-version, but I don't mind to have a WWE version of Streaming Media, if that's gonna fix my problem.
Thank you in advance.
Firstly, make certain the streams you talk about are rtsp:// 3gp streams, because streaming media player is just the Real Player re-packaged.
Second, you must set the connection settings to use the same network you connect PIE with. For AT&T customers that is medianet. If that fails, let me know, I have a link to a working SP with some h.264 modificatios that has always worked for me.

Thanks for your reply
It is RTSP streams and I use the same connection as PIE. Still no luck.. I've even tried to edit the registry so that it is like the settings on my Hermes.
Strangely enough it worked on my Hermes when I used a ripped Dopod 838 streaming player. But I can't find a similar rip for the Kaiser.
Try this one

Hi,
Thank you so much, but it doesn't make any difference... Do you know, if it would be possible to make TCPMP or another application work with rtsp:/ streaming?
Ok, as the title goes, I'm wondering if it is possible (at all) to get the kaiser to stream media (TV shows / films / music) via a wifi network?
I have a NAS Drive, which holds the above, and there are times when I'd love to be able to stream some of it while I have spare time.
While on the throne, missus / child is watching crap tv etc.
If it can, what is needed?
I've just tried the streaming lient (which failed) and WMP (which failed also, but is a fail within itself).
Any ideas guys and gals?
Thank you!
Yeah I'm pretty sure it can, some of the roms come with an app for it.
first of all, please define "streaming".
if your definition is along the lines of connecting to a server hosted on your local network such that audio/video content is streamed using a streaming protocol (such as rtsp or windows media server or realnetwork's protocol etc), then you'll have to use a streaming media client application on your phone (such as HTC's streaming media player or windows media player). typically, this approach will involve directing your phone client application to a URL like rtsp://MyMachineRunningAMediaServerort/FileName.ext
if your definition is along the lines of SHARING a folder on one or more machines on your local area network so that you can access mp3s, divx files, etc from any other machine on your network, then the solution will involve using a wonderful little tool called "HTC Network Plugin". search for it here on xda, its a cab file. some ROMs have it built in. essentially, the network plugin will allow you to map folders on your device to shared folders on your local network machines. for example, "\\MachineA" on my network shares "FolderA" and "\\MachineB" on my network shares "FolderB". using the plugin, you can set up access on your kaiser to these folders under "\Network\FolderAOnMachineA" and "\Network\FolderBOnMachineB". because these folders are now mapped onto your device's storage heirarchy, ANY application on your kaiser can now access the contents of these folders as if the files are on your kaiser's device memory or memory card. simply fire up windows media player or core player or TCPMP or what have you and start playing the mp3s, divx movies, etc. note that windows media player can NOT play back divx content.
all of the above will require you to first enable your kaiser's wifi and allow it register on your home network before you can access the "streaming" content. good luck!
Ok, instead of being all technical... Here is the simple answer.. Yes it can.. and it is easy to do.. On the computer that you have the files on, goto www.orb.com and sign up for the free account... Then leave your computer logged on orb when you are away... Then on your Tilt (or any internet ready WM device) goto orb via Internet Explorer... Now ANYWHERE you are with your phone where you have either Wifi or some other broadband connection (3G, or even a little slower) you can stream all your music, videos, etc right on the phone.. it works great!
Your meal taking too lomg at Applebees? Watch an episode of Robot Chicken.... Jogging at the gym, throw on your favorite MP3 collection.. ETc.. It works great.. and I have personally been usign the service for 2 years...
orb is a good option too...however, with simple things, complications and limitations can arise.
i believe the orb service requires internet access, both at your source (home network) as well as at the access point (your device). when away from home, data connection charges can become applicable. leaving your computer on to act as a gateway to a NAS device might also be problematic. finally, the OP seemed to want to rely only on wifi specifically within the home.
the orb solution will be simple if you have smooth reliable broadband internet within your home (assuming you don't run into router/firewall issues first). the shared folder approach will ALWAYS work without dependence on the internet (which can be a single point of failure in such a setup).
Orb Rules - for free!
I use orb for just what you mentioned. I can use my home wifi, or my data connection if I'm away from home.
Kinoma has an addin for Orb and it plays nicely. Orb even restreams HD to the phone well.
Never tried another method. With orb, I can give access to friends to watch movies that I taped or have loaded on the desktop. Just sign in to orb and share just that one movie/show.
Just be sure your home machine can handle the conversion (on the fly). I have a dedicated HTPC and it does just fine.
The only "issue" I see could be with the NAS drive..but a simple wayaround that, is to map it to as a local drive on computer where you have your orb running... Also, Even a Wii web browseris compatible with Orb... So you can stream a movie, songs, etc to your Wii (Ps3 or Xbox) at home or even at a friends as long as they have ibroadband access (and you do as well)... Seriously.. Orb is VERY easy to use.. and works very well when you are home, or away.. If you are worried about data charges, then only use it at places you have Wifi access...
And one other big bonus.. If you have a TV tuner card in your PC, you can even stream Live TV when you are away... If you are like me and have a mount on your dash for you tilt (to use with TomTom or what-not)... If you have friends or kids inthe car, you can stream the shows that are on live... There is more than one night I have watched Monday Night Raw live on my way home when I was running late or stuch in traffic... (More listened that watched, but anyways)
Hi,
I've been trying to get videos streamed to my Gtab, and I finally decided to try an app from market, 'VLC Remote/Stream' by CodeJugglers, but I've encountered a number of problems.
For one thing, the VLC on my PC (Windows 7) seems to default to port 5544, whereas the VLC Remote/Stream app on the Gtab seems to default to port 5544.
I had a heck of a time, but I finally got VLC on the PC to use port 5554, and the app on the Gtab then tries to use port 5554, but:
1) whenever I go into "stream" mode, most of the time, it just displays a black screen. When I monitor port usage on the PC, I can see port 5554 open and listening, but nothing connected to it. ONCE in awhile, I can occasionally get a connection from the app to the PC on port 5554, but...
2) When it does connect, I get only video, and not the audio.
3) Also, in order to get VLC on the PC to stream, it seems like I have to manually, on the PC, configure the VLC player to stream every time. I have the impression that the VLC Remote/Stream app is suppose to remotely configure the VLC Player on the PC to stream, but that doesn't seem to work at all. I can "control" the VLC player via the Gtab app, but when I try to "Play", it doesn't stream, it just plays on the PC.
4) Another thing is that I've been trying to get it to play a physical DVD inserted into the DVD Player on the PC, but that doesn't work at all, so I've been just trying it to stream an file that I ripped from the DVD.
Has anyone tried this, and got it working?
Thanks,
Jim
P.S. This was my 1st purchase app from the market, and it gives you 15 MINUTES to try it. I was up most of last night trying to get this working, so it's kind of unbelievable that they expect you to get it working in 15 minutes !!
Hi,
I've made some progress re. #2 (audio). When I setup my VLC player on the PC for streaming, I have to paste in the following into the configuration:
Code:
:sout=#transcode{vcodec=h264,vb=320,venc=x264{profile=baseline,level=3,keyint=50,bframes=0,no-cabac,tune=zerolatency,ref=1,no-interlaced,vbv-maxrate=312,aq-mode=0,no-mbtree,partitions=none,no-weightb,weightp=0,me=dia,subme=0,no-mixed-refs,no-8x8dct,trellis=0},vfilter=canvas{width=400,height=240,aspect=400:240,padd},soverlay,acodec=mp4a,ab=96,aenc=ffmpeg{aac-profile=low},channels=2,audio-sync}:rtp{sdp=rtsp://0.0.0.0:5554/stream.sdp,mp4a-latm}
After I do that, and try the app on my Gtab, when I can connect to the RTSP stream (it's inconsistent, and I have to try a couple of times), I get both video and audio now.
So, it seems like the app is suppose to push the stream configuration to the VLC player on the PC, but it's not doing that, at least for #2...
Jim
i dont get video but get audio.
I think its my current firmware, its a bit overloaded.
I am interested in something like this, what Android phone do you have, is it working on the phone? Could be a (obviously) a GTab thing that's why I ask...
I know this isn't really what you are asking for but I would strongly suggest you check out Subsonic beta 4.4 along with the subsonic droid app. This is by far the best streaming video solution I have found and I tried a lot of others including VLC in the past. The subsonic server takes about 5 min to set up on a windows machine and seems to handle most video formats. You can then search your library from the app and the video launches in a flash browser window. Works really well on the Gtab.

Hi,
I don't have an android phone, but I got this mostly working now, w help from codejugglers support.
I am now using the default settings in the VLC R/S app. I enabled HTTP remote control on VLC player on my OC.
In VLC R/S, I added a host (HTTP://192.168.0.230:8080).
In VLC R/S, I click on the host, and I can control VLC player on the PC.
Then, I press the folder button, then the stream button (eye icon). Then in the top window, I can browse to an .mp4 file, then longpress it, and it starts the VLC player streaming.
What I was doing wrong was not pressing the stream button before selecting the file.
There's still some flakiness. I sometimes have to press the play button several times.
Also, I haven't figured out how to play a physical DVD yet, but I'm waiting for a response now.
Works pretty well.

Awesome glad you got things working. I have not though. I keep getting "VLC is not reachable"
I have double checked and triple checked my VLC setting and followed the instructions to the letter from codejuggler.com and can't get things set up. I have tried locally within my LAN and remotely on 3g and still no go.
Thoughts? It's probly user error but I have followed the instructions. I have made sure the ports are open and have shut down any firewall. I can get into my FTP over 3g on that same computer.

There's steps for getting it working here, near the bottom if the page:
http://www.codejugglers.com/vlc-remote-and-stream.html
I installed and ran netscan on my gtab from market, which helped me do port scans of my pc, to check that I could reach port 5554 from my gtab.
On the pc, install vlc clean, then do only the enable HTTP remote control. Nothing else.
In the gtab/vlc r/s, go to the app settings and do the restore to defaults, then add a device with URL HTTP://<ipaddress>:8080. Leave the Streaming URL empty.
Also, worst case, email them, they seem to be pretty responsive.
Jim
So the VLC I have what just the one I downloaded from the http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ The standard 20MB player right. (I am just trying to start from the beginning) I will next try the netscan app. And yes those are the instructions I have used.
Edit again
Ok I don't have a port open on my device(gtab), namely 5554, How do I open that port on my device PC and GTab? I know how to on my router.
i've tried everything with vlc. it just does not seem to work. i finally found out about subsonic from another post and that works. doesn't work exactly the way i want it but it does work. to date, subsonic is the only thing i've found that actually lets me stream my 720p High profile .mkv files.
like ive said in another thread.
It works on my HTC desire perfectly
Same settings on Gtab doesnt.
Ok I have had quite a bit of head way made here! But still getting blank screen on streaming.

its nothing to do with how you have it setup
the software doest fully support tegra is my belief and is just causing issue loading the codec i think.

The port, 5554, needs to be opened for LISTENING on the PC where VLC Player is running.
The connection is outgoing, from the gtab or evo where VLC R/S apparently is running, and incoming to the VLC Player on the PC. That's why I used netscan on my gtab, to check that I could connect from the gtab to port 5554 on the PC. If netscan doesn't show that port 5554 is 'open', VLC R/S won't be able to connect to the VLC Player on the PC.

No, it works, including streaming, on my gtab.
Jim
Ok, so I have been using the netscan app and I have an open port on the PC at 554 (yes 554 that's not a typo) and nothing at 5554. And yes I did up the scan to port 6000 on netscan to make sure it searched that high.
And I have changed the settings in windows 7 to have 5554 open both on outgoing and inbound. So at this point I think it's something with the pc. Cuz as I have said, I can control VLC in the app from android.
Edit: 554 is "real time streaming protocol"
