[Q] BBC Mobile Site Does not load pics - Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

BBC Mobile Site (not the applicable) does not load pictures on the front page.
http://m.bbc.co.uk/news
I tried using WP7 and WP8 both but the mobile version of Internet Explorer 9 or 10... will not load pics on the left side of the front page.
Steps to reproduce
1)Get a WP7 or WP8 device
2)Open Internet Explorer
3)Goto http://m.bbc.co.uk/news
4)Notice how the pictures do not show up on the left side, especially after the first headline.
I confirmed this on
WP7 - Samsung Focus Flash
WP8 - Nokia Lumia 810
Anyone else experiencing the same issue?

So no one is able to reproduce this?

With which phone/browser?

Works for me HTC Titan WP 7.8 Internet Explorer.

Doesn't work for me on a HTC 8X. The formatting is all wrong also.

I gave Nokia Xpress Browser a try and i work fine for me, with loading all of the images.

lumia 800, IE9.
It even works fine in the WP8 emulator...

As wpcentral postet:
Internet Explorer improvements. You can now change your settings to prevent pictures from downloading automatically—an easy way to help keep data usage low. You can also delete selected sites from your browsing history and leave the rest intact.
it also could be a wished feature, but i could find an option to activate/deactivate that option.

Anyone try out the new Live Mesh yet? I just read about a few days back, so don't know how "new" it is, but it's still in beta.
But, after trying it, it is f'n sweet!!!
It's a web server, similar to Live Workspace, but you can upload any file you like. If you don't know what Live Workspace is, it's a web server used to exchange, edit, and upload Office documents.
With Mesh, you can upload anything you would like from your computer, then sync your device with the MOBILE APPLICATION !
You can upload from your device as well, and check them out later on your desktop. Not to mention, any files you load up from your desktop, that are synced to your device automatically get stored to your SD Card, which is kind of a downside, but it beats main memory.
Anyways, I've found it to be pretty cool, since I can quickly sync any file of my choice, from any computer, and have it on my Touch in a few seconds without cables or e-mail. All I have to do is login and upload, and I believe it's similar to Workspace in the sense you can share the "Desktop."
Check it yourself, it's of course FREE!
www.mesh.com
I have to throw in an update here! I link my Pictures folder, where photos from my camera are stored, I took two quick pics, and after just closing the camera and opening Mesh, they were starting to sync! I forgot to mention it's syncs like Windows Live, you can set manual, auto every xx minutes, or as your local folders are updated.
Needs to be running to sync, at least for the "push" type option, don't plan on trying the auto sync at all. Sits in memory @ 951kb.
It says Mobile Coming Soon. You have it working?
?Its work, already. but you need to have the sqlce 3.1 not the 2.0, or 3.0 or 3.5. specific 3.1, something almost no one have. ..
Yu can download to instal the sql 3.1, BUT change a system library just because one software.. NOOOOO
LOL!

You'll see the link to download the .cab file.
downloaded the "fixed" cab from that blog, still getting a dependency error on install.
Can't wait for this service though. Very cool.

Windows Mobile as Camera (DSLR) Remote

Hi all,
I am looking for a piece of software that will let me use my Kaiser as a remote for my Canon EOS 450d / Digital Rebel XSi.
This should be possible, both wired and/or through IR, but I can't seem to find this software anywhere!
I have found a program remote controls pentax cameras over IR:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The program can be found on http://gastaldelli.googlepages.com/
or on http://downloads.ziddu.com/downloadfile/1777010/RCFP.rar.html
(more info here: http://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/pentax-dslr-discussion/33345-windows-mobile-pentax-remote.html)
Also, I have found a program that remote controls Nikon Coolpix cameras from Windows Mobile (wired).
found here: http://www.ruwebit.net/article/81
These programs show exactly what I need! I just cant seem to find it for Canon cameras!
(Other relevant software: http://www.idruna.com/remoteediting.html -> a bit too complicated for my intention though!)
Can anyone help me out with this? Any help would be MUCH appreciated!

Would you mind typing the right way up?
In reaction to your post; using a remote would allow for time-lapse shooting, reduces vibration when shooting, etc.
I take it youre not a photographer?
jor3l, hw do u type upside down?
You do know the remotes only cost like $25, right? Probably why no one's bothered to write any software to replace it. http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/116234-REG/Canon_2467A001_RC_5_Remote_Controller.html

[HELP] Best app to get on a pc screen a real time image of my Nexus S screen

In order to run demos and project (for large audiences) what appears on the screen of my Nexus S, I'm looking for the best app (not necessarily free) able to do that via USB or WiFi.
Have you addressed the same need in the past?
Any suggestion?
Thanks
P.S. Being able to do that without installing any special software on the pc would be a plus
As far as I know, our phones don't have mhl support, so I don't think that you can do this. However there is an app Team viewer, where you can get your pc desktop on your phone. If that doesn't work maybe you can do a gallery of screenshots from the phone to the pc to show what you want? I don't know, hopefully that helps.
its low res but check out webkey in the market. it has a web based screen viewing function as part of its security features, pretty handy.
Hey,
There is an app called "MirrorOP" in the Googleplay market. Install it and then install "MirrorOP Reciever" for PC. Then you will be able to get your phone screen to PC. In the settings you can change the resolution and quality, so you can incerase fps to 25 fps (on the lowest settings).
PS: your nexus must be rooted

Nevermind. Read the OP wrong.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bitmaptest&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5iaXRtYXB0ZXN0Il0.hey, try this. Crystal screen in play store.
If you just want static real-time screenshots, e.g., no animation, try AirDroid (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sand.airdroid). Your phone must have root and grant AirDroid root access to capture screenshots.
This is overkill but if you have the options, it works great.
If you have a Samsung SmartTV connecting to the same network your phone is on, download the app called SwipeIt on both the TV and the phone. You can then use SwipeIt to project your phone screen to the TV.
Thank you all for the kind help.
I really thought this was easier to do.
I tried most of the apps you recommended and they generally require an internet connection rather than a simpler one-to-one connection to the PC (in my case this could be an issue).
I'm now oriented to just record a session, download the video to the PC and play it to demo what I had to demo.

[Q] how to use BackgroundAudioPlayer in WP8.1 SilverLight

Hi everyone I tried to use BackgroundAudioPlayer many times on WP8.1 Silverlight but couldn't be played anything
Now I started searching about what's going wrong I found tht :
The AudioPlayerAgent and AudioStreamingAgent classes, which supported background audio playback for Windows Phone 8 apps, are not supported in Silverlight 8.1. If you want to support background audio playback, you can continue to use a Windows Phone 8 app or create a Windows Phone Store app, which supports new background audio APIs.

What is the solution or other way to run same thing as BackgroundAudioPlayer in 8.1 silverlight ?
Are you expecting us to tell you something other than what's already in the quoted blob?
Option 1) Use Silverlight for 8.0, not 8.1
Option 2) Make a Windows Phone Store app and use the new background audio APIs (first search response for "Windows Phone Store" background audio

I need only to open this control :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Is it possible with any other ways except MediaPlayer Class and BackgroundAudioPlayer ?
Thank you GoodDayToDie
Hmm, not sure how to cause that control to display on the screen programmatically. It's easy to make the app update it and get events from button presses on it, though.

Download Omega Seamaster Watchface

Hi All
Currently, I have a project to create Omega Seamaster Watchface
The problem is when I try to run on the device, due to have the error below
How can I resolve it?

Yep. Works flawlessly for me, but I miss the WearOS complications. And the OPI limitation of 15% makes low contrast dark faces almost unreadable (fortunately you can trick it with Tasker
And a ton of luxury watchface replicas out there if you really search. Pretty sure I've seen the Omega Seamaster floating around somewhere.
Another Watch Maker fan...
I got the same issue before.
You could turn-off your PC's windows firewall and try it again.
I try use the Galaxy Watch Studio, it is confuse, I only can do signed faces for personal use. I do a simple Tropical Dial when I did trying it (I can´t find it at Galaxy Store for COMPATIBLE DEVICES) and I can´t upload it. When I try upload it , allways are something wrong,. ut it works fine on MY GAGET. Do transfer tkp you must depuration mode , wifi at the same PC network and launch device remote maneger at PV (givving rigths to conection at the first time).

You probably are not loading the font it is looking for. If you imported the watch face into WFS, it does not import the fonts. You must add them. Look at all the settings for the test items and see that they have a font selected and are not blank.
