I had the same blank screen problem initially. I uninstalled Adobe Air and installed Runtime instead and everything works fine now. While the delay and quality issues have been commented on here, I think this works pretty damn well!
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] trscons:
Ok, the 'xda' room it is. I might be there earlier but certainly this and most evenings starting after dinner until the witching hour Eastern (USA) time. If I don't answer right awayb I might be away raiding the kitchen... :-)

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
You can leave the connection on, and stay in the room indefinitely. After 5 mins of inactivity (no one to stream to), ReelPortal will disengage the webcam/mic, but still maintain the connection. So don't be alarmed if your webcam video looks frozen. CPU and bandwidth usage should be minimal in this phase. When someone enters the room, it wakes up and engage the webcam/mic and start streaming (assuming you have them enabled).
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
If that doesn't work, you can also consider investing in a bluetooth speakerphone with A2DP (which has built-in hardware echo cancellation).

request for test

please perform this test for me:

- after you signed on, press and hold on the screen for 4 seconds

- a pop up menu with "Exit" and "Toggle Screen" appears

- press Toggle Screen

does it do anything? thx.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jimcpl:
The menu bar at top appears/disappears?

The exit/toggle buttons keep moving, sometimes partially covered by the stuff on the right.

Jim
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
Thanks Jim. The toggle supposed to switch between Fullscreen and Normal mode (800x480), but I don't think it works correctly on Android. So I'm trying to find how to get around it.

The pop up menu always appear a fixed distance to the right of the mouse pointer. So its position changes based on your touch location.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Brian Oshman:
I loaded Adobe Air and just simply logging onto the web address reelportal dot com the control panel pops up. I was able to send chat text between g tab and computer no problem but no video. Long hold on the screen will pull up the menu but it will not go into the setting menu to set up the camera.

Got a fix for that? The reelportal dot apk app in the first post would not load, is that necessary? Just logging on th web page bring up the control panel just like in te help videos. What am I missing?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jimcpl:
Pressing toggle does go fullscreen, but just full height. The buttons on left side are still there as are the images on the right.

Thx for explanation re. Menu.

Jim
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
Ahh...you should not run the web client (via your browser) on Android, as Flash 10.1 doesn't allow access to the webcam/mic. Probably the same reason for the settings. That's the reason I had to port it to AIR. So you need to install the apk file from the first post, in addition to the correct AIR 2.5.1 runtime (which I explained how to obtain in the first post too).
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
I see. In Fullscreen mode, the buttons and side screens are still there. It's just that ReelPortal would take over the whole screen. You can try it with the web browser version on your PC. In Normal mode, it would just go to its native resolution. On the PC, you can adjust the size of the ReelPortal window via the zoom feature in the browser. I don't know if that's possible with Android.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Brian Oshman:
The apk file will not load. I get the error unsucsessful, content not supported.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
Can you give more details about your device, ROM version, Android version, AIR version, etc. Thanks.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Brian Oshman:
VS G Tablet running TnT Enhanced v3.1.4b which is an update to the stock 3389 TnT. Android 2.2, build FRF91, Kernel Ver. 2.6.32.9-00000-10.8.2-dirty.

The tab is rooted. Air is 2501660.0 downloaded from the link. The tab will access your site and as I said before will transfer text but no vid or aud. I realize that the app is needed to be able to control the camera but I get the error message.

Can it be directly downloaded as I have tried being it is an .apk or does it need to be downloaded to a a separate computer and then side loaded? Running XP H/ SP2 on computer.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
I assume you got Air from the SDK link (not from post #6 link). I thought it's version 2.5.1, so I'm not sure about "2501660.0". Can anyone else confirm it's the correct number? Jim?

On the tablet, you need to enable installing from unknown sources (Go to Applications—> Settings –> Applications—> Turn ON “Unknown sources”), and then sideload the reelportal.apk. Probably best to download to another PC first, just to avoid any unanticipated problems.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Brian Oshman:
Tab doesn't have market restrictions or that check box. I am familiar with that as my Droid has that selection to restrict outside downloading.

Yes, air came from post 6, froyo vers. Should I be downloading linux vers.? That's 35MB and following your posts you stated that it was only 6MB plus the one in post 6 is android and did load, the one in post 1 would not load just as the reelportal.apk would not either.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
Post #6 version does NOT work. The SDK I d/l was for Windows. I had to open it up on the PC. Inside it, there's a subdir that has the Air runtime, which is 6MB.

Originally I had posted this Air runtime in my first post, but upon finding out Adobe forbids it, I removed it and just added instructions to get it from the SDK.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but I didn't want to get blacklisted by Adobe.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
newer version

i just added a newer (experimental) version in the first post. i made some changes to the GUI.

Changes:

- option to save nickname and room last used (you can clear it by set the fields to blank, then save).

- added new field to enter the Server ip address, in case you want to run your own server (if not set, it defaults to the last used server)

- hide that annoying red TOS box when you check it, and click Save.

- when you enable the webcam, you can set its resolution and frame rate.

the web client is running the new version also. feedback please.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] firewater2003:
Works great and perfect!

This app is awesome, try with my own PC and gtab, and work good! video and sound too.

Install Adobe Air 2.5.1 from here:

http://download.pandaapp.com/?app=soft&controller=android&action=show&f_id=2291

enjoy!

Thanks to Reelportal...

BTW:

Running: TnT 4.1.0 and clempatch kernel.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
Thanks for the feedback, and the link to Air. I will put it in the first thread.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] firewater2003:
no problem...this is beta version...but it works good.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
i just uploaded the reelportal server executables on the reelportal download page for anyone interested in hosting their own server:

http://www.reelportal.com/files/theme/download.html

on a side note, i haven't got a chance to see reelportal running on either the viewsonic g tablet or the archos 70/101, so it would be cool if some one can make a youtube video of it running....it would probably help me visualize the interface better than using the simulator on windows. thanks.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Kashban:
Thanks for that, reelportal. I'm willing to create such a video, perhaps I'm able to put one up during the day. Luckily I have my digicam with me today.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
cool..i look forward to seeing it.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] ensign.fodder:
Worked fine except no one to talk to in xda room :-(
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
sorry about that...not many people know about my app...and i don't know how to get the word out...i tried tipping the tech blogs, but they ignored me.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] LuisB3:
I spread the word to 2 other g tab owners and we all tested in a chat room. Works pretty well.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Kashban:
You have to save it to sd card or internal memory first, then execute it from a file explorer.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
cool! thanks for spreading the word.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Kashban:
I got word from one of my friends owning an Archos 101 (non rooted, latest firmware 2.1.3), that ReelPortal is very buggy and slow on it.

I have no problems on UrukDroid based on FW 2.0.71 and still waiting for Uruk to move on to the new FW, so as soon as I migrated I will test again.

Still had no time to work on that video I promised... I made one but am now lacking the time to edit and upload to youtube.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
interesting...can you ask him to run the web client at reelportal.com in his browser...it's the exact same code, but in Flash 10.1 vs. AIR. If there's a difference, then I think it's probably due to the AIR version. If it's the same, then perhaps the ROM is not compatible? (Note: he will not have access to webcam/mic in the web client version, but all other features should work).

BTW, what kind of bugs is he seeing? Thanks.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] chucktate:
tried on dell streak

Cannot get the front facing cam working on the streak phone. Worked good on the gtab though. This is an encouraging app. I wish you luck.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] nunjabusiness:
Gtab running VEGAn-TAB-v1.0.0B5.1

Downloaded Air version 2.5..1774 apk and installed it and the x version of ReelPortal's apk and installed it.

Installations were flawless and it worked on the first try with my desktop pc watching from Windows 7/IE9 .

Then I spent some time figuring out controls. Set res to 640X480 and 15fps - very smooth.

Then added my wife's XP desktop with her MS LifeCam and she could see and hear me in the home office and I could see her in the living room.

From my desktop (no cam) I could switch between both views.

Umm, I think you just gave me a great home monitoring system!

:D
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
Thanks. That's a known problem on Android 2.2 devices with 2 cameras. The reason is Android 2.2 supports only 1 camera natively in the OS, and it defaults to the rear camera. ReelPortal is built to use as many cameras as the device can support, but it depends on the OS and Adobe AIR layer to access those cameras.

So to access the 2 cameras, we'd have to wait for:

1) Android 2.3 which supports multiple cameras natively

2) New Adobe AIR release that allow access to multiple cameras

A little off topic, but ReelPortal will be able to access both front and rear cameras on the Blackberry Playbook (tested on the simulator). What that means is that you can potentially stream from both cameras simultaneously during a video conference, by running 2 sessions of ReelPortal.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
Yes! That's actually the second purpose of ReelPortal. When you're on travel, you can monitor multiple rooms in your home via a cell phone or tablet.

I believe you are the first user reported to use it as such :).

Seems to work

Running TNT lite 5.01 with ADWlauncher. Got a FC opening the Web cam first then the mic, retried opening mic first and then web cam worked was able to call myself with good video and audio quality. I think you have something here. I saw you can multi-room chat , can you also multi-person chat?? A list of people available in the room (/w) should be a button click. Would also like to have a friend list and and invite button that sends link to program (win, mac, android etc).

Using air from the market (2.6) and the IX version of your progam.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
You can chat with up to 5 persons simultaneously. It's a limit that's solely due to GUI design. If I can come up with a better GUI that fits more people in nicely, I'd change it. But I'm not a GUI expert, so it may take some time.

You can get a list of people in the room by clicking on one of the side window on the right, then click the ">" button.

Thanks for the friend list & invite button suggestion. I'll add that to the to do list.

No vid on g-tab

Download X version of reelportal on g-tab. Also downloaded Air 2.6 from market. Can log in and connect to my laptop no problem. Can even see the video from my laptop. But no matter what I do, I can't seem to get the video from the g-tab working? Running Vegan 7.0.0 - RC1 - Harmony, might that have something to do with it? No one else has this problem?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jrr_reich:
I also get the FC about half the time when I try to enable the mic first. But no matter what, haven't gotten any video out of the g-tab yet.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
I suggest you try an older ROM version that's been reported to work before. I suspect Adobe AIR 2.6 may not be compatible with your new ROM.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] powerj2001:
My wife installed it on her netbook. I can see/hear her but she cant see or hear me. I am running vegan ginger......could that be a problem? I downloaded the apk from the website. Any ideas?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
The apk from my website is the same one from this thread. I think the firmware is most likely the problem. It's probably better to use one that's known to work first, and then you can branch out and experiment with newer versions.

These are the old firmwares that work:

Stock TNT 3588 (do NOT use TNT dashboard)

TnT 4.1.0

TNT lite 5.01

VEGAn-TAB-v1.0.0B5.1

Anyone care to fix it for CM nightlies?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Dishe:
Holy cow, this is awesome! Its the first use of video chat that actually works properly on my G-tablet! I'm currently running Brilliant Corners rom, so you can add that to the list of working ones.

Since Skype will likely never bring compatible video to our tablet (no Gingerbread camera API), I was starting to think I'd never make good use out of the tablet's camera. The people I'm calling (family in remote locations) all use skype and there is little chance of convincing them to sign up and install yet another service just to video chat with my tablet.

But this... I mean, they can just sign in to a web site and do it from the browser! Nothing to install! This is just brilliant!

Although, I have to admit that the user interface seems a little sketchy- almost like the kind of sites that try to steal your data or something. If I hadn't read about people using it here first, I'd assume it was some kind of scam.

I have to ask- where is this going? Are you going to always keep it free? What is the intended function down the road?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] reelportal:
Thanks for the feedback. The user interface needs a bit more fine tuning. I only implemented the basics so far. Most of my effort was what's under the hood (fault-tolerance, 2-way communications, server stability, etc).

I intend to keep it free. Well, the cat is already out of the bag. Both the server and client are free and available in many places. So ppl can run their own independent video chat service, without relying on anyone else's server.

I wrote this for my own use, and to test out my ideas. The current version is just a foundation for the "real" stuff that I wanted to do. So there will many updates to come.

Best daily radio to use from my state of being a customer to them...Grooveshark

Search it on your EVO, download the android program, there's a free trial you can try to test it yourself and search for songs you can add them to your playlist while your listening on a headset to EVO.

www.grooveshark.com

I paid the 9 bucks :D

As for widgets or screen customization themes, you can buy ADWLauncher EX for the themes and they have free themes and also .99 cent or 1 dollar something themes, but it depends your vary of liking, I prefer to keep my head solid and up high when I carry my EVO cause this EVO is the best phone I've ever received in my entire life due to the craziness of developers on EVOs. I'm a flashaholic too haha.

Beautiful Widgets - Weather and Clock Widget - Free Themes Downloadable - Paid app

Telus has some nice phones, but Verizon has a few coming out that i love, namely the Droid Bionic and Thunderbolt.

Telus, Bell and Rogers use bands 850/1900

Verizon uses 800/1900

Do the phone specs have to match identically? what if just the 1900 matches, which seems to be the case in every phone.

Also, would unlocking the device make a difference?

[Xperia Arc General] Infinity1988:
Why did they leave the ambient light sensor out? So if your standing in the sun, you need to go to the menu and turn the brightness up manually, or else you can't see a thing. Big flaw in my opinion. Someone at Sony Ericsson is making stupid mistakes. Even the old w810 had an ambient light sensor, and that was 5 years ago.
[Xperia Arc General] clintax:
Im also convinced the SE arc is by far the best looking smartphone to date, although the specs look nice at THIS moment, they probably wont anymore once this device launches in a couple of months and as far as i know, here in belgium, such devices launch couple months later than in US.

So, by the summer, when it releases over here, this phone will be "outdated" compared to the other phones coming out in the same period.

I wont buy a SE ever again, their experience and customer service is far below standards.

My next phone will more be something like the Motorola Atrix 4G.

-2x 1ghz dual-core

-1gb ram

-HD camera

-front facing camera (although this is not really needed in my opinion)

-16gb internal + up to 32gb external

-1950 mwat battery

although it looks like overkill atm, this device will last much longer than the arc, only needs software update. (and we all know this probably wont even happen with the Arc...)
