Hi,

I currently use VLC to stream video and music from my fileserver to my laptop when away from home.

I noticed that the phone has an application called Streaming Media, but can't seem to get it to pick up the media stream from VLC. Not sure if i'm doing something wrong.

Is there a VLC app or similar for WM 6.1 which allow me to watch these streams?? would make thing a lot easier!

For info, I am connected to the fileserver via Hamachi VPN software!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] arix:
did u try from VLC RTSP ?

As I know the streaming application comes with Diamond support RTSP, In fact I didn't try it.

I used in the past (with P3300) streaming with SHOUTCAST

(only music) , and open it with TCPMP (CorePLayer today)

There is SHOUTCAST (or ICECAST open source) for TV as well

Try it and let us know :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] arix:
OK,

I tried with VLC and it's working, here is small guide:

1. open file(s) you want to stream

2. select Stream/save and open properties

3. select MMSH and put your Internal IP (192.168.x.x)

or something else (127....)

4. select the port number

5. Encapsulation Method select mp4

6. Video Codec mp4v Bitrate 96kb/s (If you have High

bandwidth you can put higher to get better results ofcorse..)

7. Audio Codec mpga Bitrate 16kb/s (If you have High

bandwidth you can put higher to get better results ofcorse..)

8. Press ok

9. define in your Firewall what u need

(open the port and forward it to local IP, If u using Wifi in your local network so no needs..)

10. with CorePlayer (I think with TCPMP is should work as well) open URL mms://your_host_name : port (without spacing)

and here we go!!

Good luck !!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] BEERMONSTER!:
Right, Have manage to get this working in a fashion, but could only find TCMP to download on here.

I managed to get a a streaming picture, but no sound. Also, the picture kept buffering every 10-15 secs.

Not sure if this had anything to do with using the phones HDPSA connection to stream the film over or not.

Does anyone know where I can download a copy of the coreplayer from for WM6.1 to try.

Has anyone ever tried streaming with Windows Media Encoder to the phones media player? (not too sure if this can be done?)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] arix:
You should search plugin (s) for TCPMP , it should fix your Audio ,

It's importent to install all on the Device memory, otherwise u may get Audio problems..

or:

http://www.coreplayer.com/

but It cost $$ ...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] BEERMONSTER!:
how much is the coreplayer and is it worth the money?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] arix:
U can find the price in the site, on the other hand, TCPMP (0.72RC1 ) with all the plugin(s) (aac, ac3, flv) doing the same..

WM5 A02 Modifed ROM - test it!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't have device for testing and need your help. Test it!

You need Dell Axim X50 PDA with installed WM5 A02 ROM (with A02 Bootloader)!

Flashing:

1) Unpack files from archive into root of FAT32 SD-Card.

2) Insert the SD-Card into your Axim and start the SD Image Loader by Pressing Wireless + Power + Reset

3) The Image Loader will search for flash images on your SD-Card.

4) Press the action key twice, this starts the update process.

5) After the process is finished you will be asked to hard reset your device. Follow this instruction and wait for the OS to load.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] xiaoyf:
Thank you! Can make a x51 ( not x51v) machine rom?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Steven855:
Holy Cow!!! Maglite, how the heck were you able to fix the broken modules??? I've been working for over 6 months on trying to fix it and I haven't found a fix yet. If I remember correctly for the X50v rom, you had someone help you. Who helped you fix the rom??? Although, I must say that you've been very helpful getting me started with a functional rom (without errors). Might I mention that this is apparently not for a X50(low).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] br0adband:
Wow, just... :eek:

Talk about being blindsided. If this works, it gives me big hope for a possible WM6/6.1 for my extra x51 I've got. Been trying to get an x51v recently to finally get away from the x50v I keep using (damned NOR memory is just killing it), and I happened to find a nice x51 on Craig's List for cheap with some extra batteries and chargers and cradles too.

But wow... outstanding work, even if I don't have an x50 to test it out and offer bug reports.

Now I'm curious if someone can do an x51 WM6/6.1 ROM finally... this is very promising work, MagLite, and I for one thank you even so. ;) Congrats...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Steven855:
I might be inclined to make a decent WM6 rom for X51 since Lenny has neglected to provide this (even though he did try a test rom).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lennysh:
I build/make ROMs for more devices than I can count now. And it helps to have a device. My WM6.1 problem on X51 is an XIP problem, and I hate trying to troubleshoot that problem without a device close at hand. My upload is too slow (50kbps) to keep upping ROMs for ppl to test. I'd love to release one, it's easy to build them, just testing is hard without a device! You get me a device, and I can have you a ROM within the week! I did the same for the X50v.

Nice release Mag!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] down8:
I would gladly donate my X50 (Mid) for dev purposes, if it were to come back to me with a fancy WM6/6.1 ROM when it is done. It is currently on A02, I believe - fresh from a reset.

As long as it'll be back within... say, 6 months. PM and we'll talk.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] brat1475:
Do you mean to test this ROM or install your original 6.1 ROM after installing this?

Test this rom. First beta of WM6.1 don't works, frezzing on booting xip section.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] brat1475:
The WM A02 modifed ROM loaded sucessfully. The ROM responds much faster than the other WM5 ROMs I have tried. So far, I have had no errors or freezes. Wifi and bluetooth work as well. Is there anything specific in the ROM you would like me to check?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Steven855:
Thanks for a working base Maglite. Now I can really do some major rom building (time permitting when away from school). Next, I need a working rom base for the X50(low) WM5 A02 rom.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] down8:
I'm trying to update my Axim now....

I'll report back in a few....

EDIT: Back, and nothing is smoking. Just WM5. Anything special I should play with?

-bZj
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bbz_Ghost:
I would guess what MagLite wants to know is: would you say the performance is equal or better than using WM2003SE on it, the factory ROM?

Have you tried any video playback using TCPMP or whatever to make sure it's functional (a benchmark would come in handy too, it's accessed from File - Benchmark and then play a minute or two of video and report the results listed for Average Speed at the top of the list of statistics would come in handy.

If you can/could run that pre-WM5 ROM it would tell him/us the difference in performance between the ROMs, at least in terms of video playback which tends to be the most demanding thing a PDA can really do.

It's what I use as the baseline for testing on my own PDAs...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Steven855:
I don't think you can test the WM5 A02 rom fairly, because Maglite hasn't fixed the biggest problem that's been plagueing WM5 on the X50 series since the beginning.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bbz_Ghost:
You can't fix something that technically isn't broken, yanno. The x50 series has NOR type memory, that's how it was designed, that's how it works, and once you accept that you'll come to realize it's not broken: they work exactly as they're designed to work. The x51 series uses NAND, so Dell went back to the drawing board and improved that aspect of their PDAs. Sure, I'd love to have an x51v, but so far I've never found one for a price I could afford (I keep finding x50v models for $100 or less, but the x51v is always $175 or more, pisses me off). :mad:

So no, there's nothing MagLite, or Lenny, or Microsoft, or even Dell at this point can "do" for the x50 series because technically they work perfectly as designed.

Having said that, if MagLite can get his x50v WM6 A02 ROM and find the 0 pagepool mod for it (like the way Zeus_Alex modded that specific ROM), and then apply that (the 0 pagepool mod) to that x50 WM6 or 6.1 ROM above (note I'm being specific here and talking about the x50 ROM) then we could end up with an x50 WM6/6.1 ROM that's just as fast and snappy as the x50v ROM I'm using on my x50v right now.

I have a spare x50 and an x51 - the non-VGA non-Intel graphics Axims and I'd love to get WM6 on them, I just don't have the time to modify and cook ROMs, so I appreciate the effort these folks like MagLite, Lenny, and all the others put into creating ROMs.

So, MagLite... I think if this x50 ROM works (I haven't had a chance to test it, might not be able to do it since my x50 and x51 are in storage and I'm pretty busy these days, can't make the trip to the storage place), and you can make that 0 pagepool edit for it, I'll bet the performance improves dramatically.

Your WM6 A02 ROM for the x50v with Zeus_Alex making the 0pp edit gives me the best performance of any ROM I've ever used on my x50v, even faster than WM2003SE, and even with the known filesys.exe issue. It's just wicked evil fast and the battery life is fantastic, and I really can't say why. All I know is it works and it's hella fast, period.

Thanks, and have fun, always...

I haven't had 2003SE on this X50 for a long time, an don't feel like downgrading. I had good experiences with WM5 from the start. The only issue was it doing a hard reset once in a while, when running out juice (wasn't WM5+ supposed to stop that?).

-bZj
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Steven855:
You know, if you care so much about the zero pagepool rom, why don't you mod it yourself? There are instructions for this in the internet (it's written for X51 WM5 rom, but it works with any WM5 axim rom) and all you need is the rom and a good hex editor. You also seem to have forgotten that every axim had different effects from the zero pagepool rom. You seem to have success with it, so good for you. Others (based on what I've read) have had no success with it. I've done my homework and I found out that Dell Could have done something (just go looking at the source of windows mobile).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bbz_Ghost:
Why would I need to mod a ROM that's already got the 0 pagepool mod? That makes no sense. WM6.1 has nothing of any use to me so I have no reason to use it and lose just that much more space.

I've been working with this kind of stuff for decades now, so forgive me if I just don't feel like doing the low-level tinkering anymore and am happy to give credit where it's due, hence my sig stating specifically which ROM and who made/modded it.

As for every Axim having different effects, I find that tough to believe as the only ones that are affected are the x50 and the x50v from my own hands on experience. As I don't wish to make an x50 modded ROM (as noted above) for the x50 I do have stuffed in a box in storage (or the x51 sitting with it), I can only speak again from my own hands on experience:

I've owned 5 Axim x50v PDAs in the past year or so, and each one of them has been identical so the same ROMs work on 'em and they all offer up exactly the same level of performance when using those particular ROMs.

There are working and very well performing ROMs out there - MagLite and Lenny and some of the others that are just mods of the ones MagLite and Lenny have put out - so there's no need for me to do yet another one. I've thought about it for my own use, but honestly I just don't care to do that level of tinkering anymore.

Retirement has benefits, one of them being I can say "No." a lot more often. ;)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Steven855:
As for the remark about the zero pagepool, I meant try to mod a rom and give it the zero pagepool. For the updated X50 rom, that's where I come in (I don't trust Maglite with making a X50 rom because he has no experience with one or even a X51, but I do like the fact that he fixed the messed up modules in rom even though I've been working for over 6 months trying to fix it and I do own a X50(mid)). By the way, you left Makuu (he was first to make a WM6.1 rom for X51v) out of the list of rom builders.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bbz_Ghost:
As quoted, I didn't "leave him out," I just mentioned the two primary names that most people currently involved in the x50/x51 stuff will think of.

I've got working ROMs so, why mod anything at all? The one I'm using (as listed in my sig) is still the best performing ROM on this x50v I have that I've tested of the few available, soooo...

I've never owned an x51v but I'm still hoping to get one at some point, so I've never dealt with Makuu's ROMs anyway.

I'm curious as to what "broken modules" you're referring to in the x50 midrange model as I wasn't aware anything was broken as it is, which leads me to wonder if such a thing exists in the x50v ROMs as well.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Steven855:
At face value, the rom doesn't seem to have errors (runs ok in axim), but dive a little deeper (the imgfs part), and you will see that Dell made a few errors. Take a nb0 file of the WM5 A02 rom for X50(mid) and try to extract the imgfs part of it (don't forget to save all of the output as a text file). Take a look at the output and you will see that there are overlaps in a few crucial files that are needed for rom modding (like packages.sof, default.hv, and .hst). Maglite somehow fixed all the troublesome modules, but he won't tell me how he did it. I've been workin for over 6 months trying to fix it and if it's something easy that I overlooked, I am not going to be happy.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] makuu:
Steven, you can actually find all the mandatory files from the imgfs. Those that you are mentioning are also there but not properly handled by Mamaich tools, I think you'll find them named image.bin or something. You can hexedit these files to be sure of what is what, than rename them properly.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] BrandX-SLC:
Hey Guys,

Maglite, I have an X50(mid) not V. I uploaded the ROM just fine, every thing seems to function as desired. (well except my widcomm hack ;) ) I even bluetooth dialed my blackberry to google. (liking the use of buzz words?) ANYHOW lol, Its working really well, I came from 2k3, to WM05A02 and right to Your test rom. The speed increase is VERY noticible. I would say it performs slightly slower than 2k3 but much faster than WM05. The only real slowdown I have noticed is in the tap recognition, I have also noticed it not detecting taps 100% of the time. I'm looking forward to a glassy WM06 ;)

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] chuck.kahn:
So how is this modified? It looks like a regular Dell WM5.0 to me.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lennysh:
The filename of the nb0 has to start with WM50_K_A

Anything after that can be changed, but if any of that beginning is changed, then the bootloader will not see the rom image on the SD card.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lennysh:
So, does this ROM work Mag, or do you still have XIP problems?? I actually have an X50 on the way to me now. Should be shipped out today or tomorrow. So I can def help out when I get it.

Should have a new test X51 ROM soon, but still would like to have a device.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] curiousGeorge:
It's the screen tearing during video playback in 2700G accelerated I'm concerned about. That has been a problem since the original WM5. This problem does not occur whatsoever with WM2003SE.

It's an issue of the screen refresh rate being incompatible with what the 2700G outputs, since it feeds out new frames at a different rate than the screen is displaying them, causing overlapping of partially rendered frames on top of one another.

Perhaps //MG will make the first WM6 rom that has the correct refresh rate for 2700G.

Great test ROM!

This ROM works awesome! Very fast and responsive... it also fixed the problem I was having with my CPU being stuck at 520Mhz. Now, when it's on auto it will idle around 104-208Mhz like it is supposed to. I don't know what was done with it, but it looks like a great base ROM. Keep up the great work! This was what Dell should have done in the first place.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Steven855:
All it is is the WM5 A02 rom in nb0 format, nothing more.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] robmayer1:
That is so weird then, because my CPU was not dynamically changing when set to "auto" with the previous AO2 ROM. Maybe my Axim just needed a fresh start possibly? Regardless, it's going on serveral hours and I haven't had any slow downs or the filesys.exe/compaction thread problem like I did with the other AO2 ROM.

Maybe today I just lucked out and tomorrow I will be plauged again... we'll see. Either way, I'll even be willing to donate a couple bucks when a working/stable WM6/6.1 ROM is out. Keep up the good work!

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pinoymutt:
Hi All,

I'm a long time lurker on this forum, and I've always gotten a lot of great info from great people willing to share info and development talents for various mobile devices.

I have an Axim x50 (mid) that I recently dusted off, and put the A02 modified ROM on it from this forum with no problems.

I just wanted to inquire as to whether or not development on a WM6 (or 6.1) ROM was still in the works for the x50 (mid) as there are some things like SDHC support (above 4GB - I am using the HTC driver floating around) and WPA-AES support that aren't available in WM5?

Again, thanks again to everyone who devotes their free time and talent to these side projects, and I am more than willing to be a guinea pig and give feedback.

Thanks!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] robmayer1:
I was also wondering if the x50(mid) WM6 port was still in the works as well. I actually gave it a shot myself, and failed. I'm not sure of the address to inject the XIP into the ROM and I almost bricked my device. Anyway, I really hope this is still being worked on... any recent news?
