Is there a webcam app on the platform yet? - G1 Apps and Games

Anyone came across one? I'm hoping to either buy one tomorrow but if there is one for Android I'd much rather save my cash..
Thanks

i want this also, would be very handy.

We don't even have a working video camera yet, so this isn't very likely until some time much farther down the road, if ever.

im sorry to say, but there is a video camera app out there in beta stages(crappy but good) it has some errors and what not..
in order to make a web cam app you dont have to have a video camera app installed on the g1, video capturing image is already enabled on the phone, just someone has to make an app for it. to make a webcam app you would have to make your own video capturing system, or use an existing one if you code it right, some where some how some one will do it, just takes time :'(

Doesn't the vid cam app thats out now record video in motion jpeg?

Are you thinking you'd connect your phone to a PC and use it as a webcam? Surely we are not talking about using this on the phone, otherwise you'd have to turn the phone around every second to type, view the other persons video, etc...
That being said, the ADT Plugin For Eclipse adds Screenshot Capability to Eclipse... Might be some way to adapt that into a video feed? Although, this would then be more of a PC driver request than an Android app request...

use your windows mobile as a webcam
Its free and simple....
Download mymobiler: http://www.mymobiler.com
Download VH screen capture driver: http://www.hmelyoff.com/index.php?section=8
Start mymobiler and activate your mobile camera
Grab the part of the screen you want with VH screen capture
Now you have a webcam stream which you can use in any program like skype, msn etc..
Look at this video as example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wveANUBUIJM
Instead of using the microsoft remote tool use mymobiler. It is much faster.
PS: You need active sync to communicate with mymobiler

Are you HIGH or just spamming? We are talking Android here, what does Windows Mobile apps have to do with it? The last I've check there was no WINE 4 Android...

This would be the purpose I would want to use it for. Granted webcams are cheap these days so i'm not sure it is really all that practical.

Probably not but might be cool nonetheless.

The idea

I am not high or abusing your eyes. Maybe you can read between the lines and use my example as you wish.
Or is there maybe no camera option on a Android phone ?? I don't know anything about googles attempt to make something for a pda/phone.
Or is there no software available to remote control the phone. Or is it the lack of applications for Android ??? Ok you mentioned WINE...It seems you are waiting for windows emulation on Android because there is actualy more software available for Windows Mobile ???
Anyway if your are able to display your camera on a Windows screen you can capture it with the VH screencapture and use the stream for skype etc...

You people need to upgrade to one of the Builds of 1.5, so you can use Camcorder (the google cam recorder).

I agree. What a waste of time. But For one I would love to see a Webcam on my G1.
" You people need to upgrade to one of the Builds of 1.5, so you can use Camcorder (the google cam recorder)."
Uhm I have the 1.5H A2SD
And there is a camcorder..but you cant stream it through MSN or Skype..which is what people are wanting to do.

iPhone type Music Program(Album Art) for Kaiser/ Win Mobile

I am a new happy owner of the Kaiser and would like to find a music program similar to the interface of the iPhone. I love the feature where you can scroll through album art and select your music. Has anyone come across a Windows Mobile program similar to the iPhone music software or is something in development?
Thank you

Welcome to xda-developers Haron, well i was finding a program like this too.. but i couldnt find it.. so im trying to develop a program, but i just started, it will take me a time but when i finish it i will upload it here for free.
** IF ANYONE HAS ONE PROGRAM LIKE THIS NOW, LET ME KNOW.. **
Regards.

Try this its not perfect but its still in development and this is the first version with the album scroll. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=377627
one of the problems with the lack of hardware video acceleration. The iphone actually has written drivers for their hardware to help them with video rendering unlike HTC that relies on software rending, you will be running head first into a bring wall attempting to make something as smooth and workable as the iphone app.

I bet S2P's album scroll screen would be abit better if the device didn't slow down when ever you touch the screen.

front camera as a webcam

hello,
I'm searching a app that uses the front camera of the kaiser as a webcam for the kaiser itself, not for my desktop computer, my goal is to chat and webcam when I am in the car, or on holiday, just like a videocall. Is that possible??
thnx
Sorry No Hopes
When i was 2 my Sr. Brother spoiled the fun about Santa before my Mom Tried
Don't Give Up
It is a good idea
but I think there isn't any app to make the front cam as a webcam

try this

or this
yes but that ar both the options I don't mean, because it makes your phone a webcam for your desktop pc, not on the phone itself...
Try Microsoft Portrait.....
Its been around a while, but it works.
Google it.

This looks like it, but I can't get it to work with my msn messenger...
I have another question... is it possibile to broadcast my webcam over an ip-adress, because then I could watch that cam with a program like ViewCommander. That way I could set up my webcam at home, leave my computer on to broadcast and monitor everyting.

you might want to look in to this software http://www.ix-m.com/ i have been doing some beta testing for them with the use of gps (gps app here http://www.ix-m.com/LiveMediaGPS.aspx) and currently use it to stream live video while driving! works really well and supports voice and text chat.

Watching live TV from your pc at home! (?)

I almost completed my post...and then i pressed my backspace key...so i can start over again
Hello,
I was wondering if there are people who are interested in watching live tv on there windows mobile phone from your pc at home...(?)
Last week i was searching for tools/progs like snapstream(stream live tv/record/schedule etc...) but it wasn't working good enough for me...
I just wanted a simple program to scan for tv channels...name them...and watch them on my kaiser...
So after a few hours programming... it worked
A moment ago i was driving my car and watching tv(350kb(its)s) on my kaiser over hsdpa / umts using my tv card in my pc at home...
The only thing i need to do is make a simple GUI that you can access on your kaiser using pocket ie/opera etc... In this webpage there will be very big buttons (for ex. CNN) so when you press this verry big button (you can't miss ) it will start CNN in TCMPM or windows media player...
(These buttons will be created dynamicly using a xml with your tv channels/freq/descriptions) so you can customize it or auto scan for channels...
Also you will be able to customize output quality...
Are there people who are interested in this? If so i'll will post some beta versions here
Let me know!
God bless!
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok well...
I made an installer you can download it at: ShareTV
It is an early version of it, but for me it works great!
Before you install ShareTV.msi
- install Microsoft .NET framework v3.5
- install windows media encoder v9
ShareTV will automaticly startup a little http/wwwebserver on port 80... but if you need to change this port number (firewall/dmz or what else) it's possible! Just take a look at ShareTV.exe.config!
In wwwroot folder you will find index.htm and template.htm. template.htm is needed to export your channels...
So first Autoscan channels in ShareTV after this you can (if you like) customize this index.htm the way you want!
Enoy! And if you have quetions or suggestion don't hesitate and please let me know!
Her are some screenshots...
Interested!
VERY interested
WiFi as well as Hspda?
stream media from pc to phone
i use a nice piece of freeware called orb.. streams all your media from your pc across your network or across internet.. web interface is pretty cool can be set for different devices and depending on the pc you can stream to multi devices at once (xbox, ps3, wii, pc, phone etc). and if you have a tv card it will stream that as well as any webcams etc u have attached. also allows download access to shared folders so you can have all your data on the go...
anyway... it's free so maybe it'll work for ya.

Thnx for your tip! But i didn't really like orb... its a nice app but not for me
I'd be very interested in such a thing as i've been trying to find a way to stream ESPN and several other channels with no luck. Where would the streaming source come from however?

The source come's from your pc at 'home'...
The only thing is that this pc must have a tv capture card
Orb works OK if you have the TV tunercard and dont wanna spend any money, but if your willing to spend a little cash go for a cheap slingbox off ebay and you will have your entire cable line-up at your disposal.
I've found a app called Mytinytv where you can stream tv but the only problem is (for me) he find only one channel so if you can make something that works with my hercules smarttv i would love it
Very interested. That would be sweet. Trying out orb now it is ok. I would love to try your app out.
Thanks!
if this is somehow possible with dvb-s cards, i'm very interested

Hi!
Wel'll first i have to buy a dvb-s card... because i don't have one..
But when i have it will also support dvb-s cards yes
ah, okay.
i thought most of nowadays tv-cards run by bda-drivers and so they're all compatible to every program that supports bda.
hm
but
hm
no, i won't donate you a dvbs card! i can wait!
very nice app but my video card is not supported can you fix this. It would be nice
It does seem that Orb has already crossed this birdge... I like the interface and functionality of it. It is worth a look!

[Q] App to make your phone act like webcam?

Hi,
Is there any app that can be used to make your phone act like a webcam? For instance is there a way to use the phone's camera with skype to make video calls?
Yes loads lol have you searched the market?
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk
Yes I have and I found only one which is no longer developed.
P.S.
There are many apps in the market but they don't do what I want. As far as I see most of them make your phone stream content that you can watch from your browser, but so far I can't find a program that can use your phone for video calls with skype.
You tried IP Webcam by Pas? Its on the market, and works great. Best of all, its free.
There's also Droidcam, which has drivers for Linux and Windows. The paid version of it apparently can transmit sound, but only with Windows. I tried an older version with Linux and it worked well.
droid cam is a good shout, i use it and its easy to use.
Thanks guys.
I tried IP Webcam. It seems the program has the necessary feature, however I have to download third party drivers for windows, so will try it later.
Will check droid cam too.

[Q] Front camera N7000

Hi there, i want to buy Galaxy note, and i have some questions, but i cant find them on google... so, can You (users of GN) use the front camera in for example chatroulette? I know GN is using AdobeFlash but i didn't had these phone in my hands yet, so i cannot check it... I want to sell my old laptop and buy GN, thats why I ask for some questions like that
Nope..chatroulette doesn't work..just tried with stock browser and opera mobile.it doesn't even detect the camera

but, can You can receive video from others by internet sites like chatrulette?
You get video from others, but it doesn't detect the camera. I was using Dolphin Browser HD.
and, can You chat normally? on (i don't know word for it) chat box (?), i mean can You write on it? And how about microphone? It detects sound, or not?
Just wasted half an hour on chatroulette. Wow what a sausage fest...not even a single chick...
And regarding your question.
No it didn't detect my camera nor the microphone. :-(
Yes you get both video and audio from others
Yes you can chat in the box, but it's real pain , not really worth doing
browsers - opera mobile and stock browser.....
