Hello hungera

I like it because it turns my phone into a remote. I don't think we need it, but having a easy to use remote for VLC is great. (saves having to get up to put a new show on.:)) You don't have to run VLC with just the http interface on, you can run multiple interfaces at the same time, if that is what you were asking.

Thanks

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] konidair:
Is there a guide how to set up this software(vlc pc settings incuded)? thanx :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] BigGiantFish:
Hello konidair

I was unable to locate a real "Guide" but I will help as best I can. I got it to work through a bit of trial and error and through some help here.

The VLC setup is slightly different to the wiki but here is what I think my steps were.

Run VLC on your PC.

To turn on the Web interface you need to go to Tools > Preferences > (Show Settings All) > Interface > Main interfaces

Tick HTTP remote control interface

Save and restart VLC

The remote software is simple, install cab then copy stoobietoo's skins to the skins folder inside the install directory.

Connect Blackstone to the wifi network that the VLC PC is on.

Run VLCRemote

Go to settings and enter the IP address of the VLC PC.

The default port for VLC version 1.0.1 Goldeneye is 8080

Select one of the 480x800 resolution skins in your favorite colour

Done

That should be it for a simple quick setup.

If there are anymore questions or steps that I have missed please post.

I have my PC in one room and my HD TV in another. It's a pain in the arse starting a movie playing and then going through to the other room to watch it on my big screen. This means that I can play/pause/ff/rew etc. without getting off my fat lazy arse lol.

thanx...mate! ;) i was missing the http interface.Now it works just fine! :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] markythegreat:
Added black theme

Hi folks, i think this is my first post on XDA (long time reader tho), thought i'd pop my cherry by helping out a bit.

Thanks to stoobietoo for making those skins, I've had a look at the XLM file used to make them and thought i'd have a stab at making something a bit simplier in terms of styling.

I've mainly resized the original skin to fit the new resolution, so credit goes to whoever developed that skin, and to stoobietoo for the XLM file which i changed slightly.

Here's the theme:http://www.mediafire.com/?2lctdlwtndg

And this is what it looks like:

P.S. - To anyone still struggling to get the application to work, you use the IP address of the pc running VLC and the port number is usually '8080'. Suggest setting host PC to static IP or you'll end up having to change it every now and then.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] markythegreat:
...and instructions

And for anyone who also hasn't worked it out themselves, to use this theme simply extract the zip into the 'Skins' folder in the VLCRemote install directory. (usually Program Files/VLCRemote/ on either storage card or main memory)

Enjoy!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] morfis:
Hi, can anyone suggest what I am doing wrong with setting up VLCRemote?

Set up VLC http interface and edited the .host file to include my local network. Tested access using localhost:8080 and also the actual server Ip using my laptop - both worked correctly.

Installed the app on my HD (wifi connected already). Entered the server Ip address and port (refresh left unchecked). Clicked 'done'..several minutes laterthe app returns an error "could not connect, please verify your settings".

Went back and checked the settings in VLCRemote and they appear correct. Clicked 'done' again...several minutes later I get the same error again.

Ideas please?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Archer:
@morfis

Is the IP address something like 192.168.x.x, because if it is then that's an internal address that will only be recognised by things connected to the same network. (I'm assuming that your laptop is connected to the internet via wi-fi that comes off the same point as your PCs internet connection.)

If it is, I can help. If not, ignore me
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] morfis:
Thanks for the reply John. Both the phone and the laptop are using the same wifi router in my tests scenario so both should work with the local IP of the VLC PC?

edit:

The HD wifi connection was set to 'work' rather than 'the internet'. I've changed that and VLCRemote is now working ;)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] stoobietoo:
Guys, I have made a new Black skin. see the first post for the link.

Stoobietoo
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] stoobietoo:
That "Refresh" is for the frontend of the program so that it shows the current track, remaining time/track length and current volume, so I suggest you "check it" to get the best out of the remote. I have mine set to every 1 second so the track time remaining counts down accurately.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] jonolo:
Hi,

does anyone know if there are any active development done on the VLC Remote software?

I was thinking of taking the existing code and make some changes but I need to get in touch with the creator to make sure it is ok...

Two main things I was planning to do is:

* Change the browse screen to use Sense UI. I have to look into if you can get the mp3 tags needed to display Artists via VLC http interface.

* Add ability to have multiple VLCs defined, so that you can control different zones in your house.

Next step I would like is to make it possible to link different zones together so that one VLC is master and one or more VLC players just plays what the master streams... a little bit like Sonos system....

Anyone interested in any of these additions?

Cheers

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bravo261:
maybe with the marketplace, there might a small tiny chance of the banks and others making windows applications, but the iphone is what made it all cool and gimmicky to have an app for anything under the sun. do you need an app for desktop access as well? anyways, i wouldn't hold my breath

Merci pour ton travail

Charles

Edit : je viens de comprendre :

Rom Sunrise(WM6.5/HTC Sence 2.1)

Rom Eclipse(WM6.5/HTC Sence 2.5)

mea culpa pour cette question débile

What beautiful work! :) Only one problem (important):

How to access the list of programs? There are no Programs tab and it only has 9 shortcuts! :confused:

Hello

Quel beau travail ! Seul souci (important) :

Comment accéder à la liste des programmes ? Il n'y a pas d'onglet Programmes et on ne dispose que de 9 raccourcis !

Good Job but some issue with Email

J'ai installé cette nouvelle Rom hier et le résultat est impressionnant tout ce que j'ai essayé fonctionne sauf la boite Email : j'ai configurér 2 comptes Email, l'envoi de messages fonctionne mais pas la réception. Avez-vous rencontré ce problème ?

Cordialement
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] totocheHelpDesk:
Hi,

Super ROM (bien plus rapide que la V12 de Miri) et en français!

Seul pb rencontré depuis une journée : la calculatrice ne prend pas en compte le basculement de l'écran (avec Opera, ça fonctionne)

Donc, MiamMiam, pour l'instant je me régale, merci.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] fomec:
Bonjour,

Un grand merci pour cette ROM (première expérience en la matière pour moi).

Quelques remarques :

1/Je n'ai trouvé nul part comment supprimer les raccourcis de la page d'accueil (si ce n'est en passant par la soft keys de droite)

2/Je n'arrive pas à modifier la soft keys de droite (et je ne peux pas de toute façon tant que je n'ai pas résolu ma première remarque)

En fait, j'aurais aimé mettre la page des programmes à la place de cette soft keys de droite.

3/J'ai installé Pocket Informant mais il n'arrive pas à devenir PIM par default (alors que ça fonctionnait très bien avec la ROM officielle Orange)

4/Comment renomme t on les raccourcis pour utiliser tes icônes ?

5/ Connais tu un programme performant pour gérer htc sense (tf3dConfig n'est plus franchement adapté) ?

Merci de nouveau pour ta super ROM

A très bientôt.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Jal84:
Salut Miammiam

J'ai un probleme avec les footprints, ca ne demarre l'appareil photo. Est ce que le fix de Miri pourrait marcher sur ta ROM ?

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] snakejoe:
great article. I got 2 questions.

1. why did you build a new boot.img but not use the one comes with update?

2. after set the new SLP "partition" sizes, can I still restore with nandroid?

thank you.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] pichurri:
Hi snakejoe,

I haven't tried it, but you can update the radio and a new (1.76.2007) Engineering spl, see:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=589722

Ps:

1. I don't remember why I tried a different kernel, but I guess that the shipped one should have worked unless the radio needed that kernel.

2. I didn't try to restore backup with nandroid, but it should work, as long as you load the rescue with the “right” partition sizes.

Exactly the same question.

In general good idea only if you have solution for extremely slow speed and overall sluggishness of sense UI.

Wow! It will be amazing !!

This will be the first bootable ROM without haret, no ? But I agree for the Tatoo build because of his QVGA resolution.

If this is Android system.... it gets better speed and stable quality

I am looking forward to try it
[Touch Cruise Android Development] niru1978:
Firstly, thanks dude to take this further. But, there are few questions that I will put forth this way:

1. Dont want to know the release date as work progresses we find bugs and patches! so tell me how good it will be than those released earlier.

2. A good list of functionality. wifi was already working but had many problems. such as sometimes disconnects, or doesn't work with specific APs. (in my case linksys WAG200G).

3. Bluetooth

4. Camera working but had problems: no proper resolution, color or clarity.

5. Slow or sometimes crashes.

6. finally, Polaris means will it be for POLA100 or POLA200 or both!!! this is main as POLA200 is a better hardware than POLA100 whereas I have noticed there are many owners of POLA100.

These are few things that came into my mind and forced me to switch over to WM6.5. I would prefer using Android on my phone.

when I took my Touch Cruise, 3D was not working I mean it was not provided by HTC but now thanks to the developers, 3D is successfully ported into this hardware though memory is less but we can see some functionality.

I would love to see a good working and stable Android instead of too many tweaks and customization for specific hardware (unless it is required).

All the best and looking forward

Niranjan

One more thing: you mentioned ROM! does that mean no more HaRet ???????? Please confirm on this, as ROM means it should be better than running from HaRet (speedy boot, better hardware control)
[Touch Cruise Android Development] blackdog7:

AFAICS this is not a ROM, only one of the hundreds of bundle u can find over the net or u can compose by yourself combining the correct basefiles and default.txt with system (SQSH or IMG) files.

Calling this a ROM u only make confusion in ppls who haven't still understand that it's not (still) possible to flash a Polaris (or other non-android device) with an Android ROM...

Thanks! But can't you convert better videos on a HD2 with another converting software given that it has better hardware? If yes what will the concrete difference be in the convertion?

EDIT: I have tested the linked software and it returns far from perfect results. I have my own paid converter and would like to give it a try, but I am still not sure if it should be wmv, divx, mpg4(with h.264) or something totally different. I am unsure about the bitrate as well.

Another question that might solve all of this for me. Will the HD2 be able to play this video smoothly without needing to convert:

768x432, wmv, bitrate: 2364kbps, 29fps

and will it be a good idea to convert to 800x480 for better image quality nontheless?
