i was ondering if there were any software that would allow 2exec' to estabilish a video chat session over wifi rather than paying for the 3G rates... also if there were a way to do the same with regular pc users too
thanks for any information
Not as yet even though the camera does have the facility to be integrated into applications, unfortunately no-one has yet!
Video calling is good though!
I sent an email to the MS Portrait team and they told me that this may be included in a future version if they can get the camera API.
I think it would be a killer app that will separate the Jasjar from all the others.

You are wrong. With PocketCaster www.comvu.com you can stream videos from both cameras via GPRS, UMTS, WiFi up to Comvu-Server.

Thanx, man! Bravo for the info!
That's amazing! I just downloaded and played a bit but I couldn't really play that much seeing as O2 only give me 1MB a month!! booooo
Dubrand,
Thanks for the info. However since I haven't yet seen this tool you are referring to, is this tool solely a video blog? In other words, from what you are saying, it cannot be used to do an interactive chat between two people on the fly (like in MSN Messenger on the PC) but only to save and upload a video clip on a server no?
Tks.
Thanks Dubrand! Looks like a fun little app/service. 8)
Thanks a lot!
It cannot be used to do an interactive chat between two people on the fly (YET). But i think this is a terrific proof of the concept that the build in camera can be used in (interactive) applications from third parties. An exciting promise for future use of the HTC Universal.
thanks for the info. i think this is a must have and when it is fully integrated into say msn messenger this will be my far the best device / gadget for years
3g video web conferencing
Any developers who fancy having a bash at developing such a website feel free to contact me. www.meetnow.co.uk...I have the ideas, web address (not live yet)...but lacking the technical know how..

Doesn't seem to work (the link I mean)....
Works for me, nice device. Looks much better in the video than in some of the pictures around the net.
Is there a way to download ´that video? Now it just tries to open Media player and after that it says that the server or link maybe down.
BTW. Does anyone have a idea when this is going to be released? Because I'm thinking of buying BA but if this is going to be released for in couple of weeks, i'm going to wait.
I am definitely salivating on this new device.
I just wonder how long it will last with all the twisting and opening of the LCD screen.
I hope HTC will not build it as flimsy as the keyboard in the IIs.
stupid guy in video
wot a dumbass in the cab at the end. if the device reset itself you may aswell keep it! lol! that is what the cab driver gonna do wid it! dumbass!
Just a few things to add:
1. During voice conversation, can receive email at the same time???
2. Twisting the LCD looks quite easy.
3. Password is not new thing anymore but at the end, what's the remote wipping???? Can we also do that for WM2003SE devices?
4. If the guy watches this forum, he may not give it to the cab driver.....
Nice video anyway....
?1. Yes, with 3G
?3. Yes, (I think so) http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/press/2005/jun05/06-06SFPWindowsMobilePR.mspx
Soon, (AND ****ING FAINALLY!), we will be able to sync Tasks with the Exchange Server over Server Sync and be able to destroy data if our devices are stolen.
I just wish they would sync Notes too.
lol - no video conferencing shown (of course chicago does not have UMTS networks running )

Great indeed for the task But when the SP2 for exchange will be available? And what about SBS?
Ex 2003 SP2 will be by end of year.
That movie has to be the lamest product commercial ever. Geezz.
Gives a nice impression of the Universal though.

Cool !
Has anybody able to use Microsoft Portrait with the internal cam of JASJAR. Is there any other video conferencing software which will work in GPRS speed
I have just written to Skype and Microsoft Portrait in regards to the HTC Universal's front-facing camera, and more importantly, the availability of the "common camera API" that is available on the Windows Mobile 5 SDK. Let's hope either one responds with some good news soon.
In the meantime, there's no other application out there that uses the camera except for ComVu's PocketCaster (www.comvu.com) and a couple shareware programs that utilize the Camera app to upload to an FTP server or something.

Thanks for the info, I can't wait to see it. This would be a nice gift to the US Uni users who can't make use of the built in video phone app.
The header is the question really in total. Snazzy wee webcam .. MSN Messenger.. the two go great on yer desktop. But on your PDA?. I think we should be told. Looking at a quick past glimpse of posts past .. its a non runner.. but what a wasted opportunity! If you think you know how it can be done .. write in .. NOW!.

Oh and a whinge. ClearVue doesnt want to display my PDF file (jrcalc_guidelines_v3_2004.pdf) but Adobe Reader will .. however as on my Nokia 9500 the pages dont reflow so reading means scrolling all over the shop .. what a palaver! But on the laptop . no probs.. cheers!
Thats it .. now you can go!.
Errrm....not sure if you are asking a question or ranting about MSN.
Wouldn't life be grand if things were as simple as MSN utilizing the same functionality as the Dialer App (i.e. video). Have you SEEN the MSN client? It's about as full of features as MSN version 1.99999.
As to your second comment--many of us here are in agreement that ClearVue screws things up, but Adobe does a better job. There are pros and cons of using both.

Since almost nobody uses video calling, the 2nd camera is currently a bit of a waste. MSN messenger usage would be killer.
I'm asking myself the same question as well as wether you can use this device like a normal webcam (for your pc). I have found some references on http://www.mobile-review.com claiming that you can use a Universal as a webcam for msn but it doesn't say how!
However I did find this: http://www.zone1.de/PocketPC/index.html#webcam
which claims to be software that can upload pictures (e.g. every 10 seconds ) from the Universal to a webpage...interesting...anyone tried this?
Also anyone know how to stream video to a webpage from a universal??
Like http://www.comvu.com/ ?
hey!
in my country thers blog tv girls brodcast
how can i see them on my jasjam
what do i need to download???
Ok, You might need to give a bit more information.
For example, what country are you in? Which websites are you trying to view on your Jasjam? You could use IE built in but a lot of people prefer Opera. Not sure if there is a Mozilla available yet
Are you on a contract? Do you have GPRS in your area? Does your SIM/mobile account allow you access to the web?

That's all Flash Video 8. Just like Youtube and Google Video... There is currently no software to play this natively on Windows Mobile devices.
I've heard your only solution is Orb or possibly a newer Sling Media device, both of which require an always-on PC at home to act as "translator/server" for your Windows Mobile device. Since I'm a Mac user, I haven't looked into it yet. Sorry, no soup for us as they say.
Would it be possible to use either the front facing or rear camera as a webcam in a program such as live messenger or skype on the touch hd?

Yes, check out

and

You could search the forum too...
While it is interesting to be able to use the HD as a webcam on the PC. It would be more interesting to be able to use Skype webcam directly from the HD (in house).
This one claims to do video calls via IP directly from VideoPhones without going through your provider. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like it supports Skype. http://www.octro.com/

Forget it! Part of the first is the well known "Cool Camera" prog 1.15. And Cool Camera doesn't work on the HD.
Also your second advice isn't running on the HD.

I think that's what the topic user is aiming at, using the front camera as a webcam in programs on the HD itself.
Would be kinda cool .
yeah sorry maybe i didn't make my question clear... I was wondering if you could have the camera working as a webcam purely on the phone. Videocalling over IP or sending video through windows live messenger for mobile.
did a search on the forums but nothing came up. i'm surprised and can't see why it's not been done. it's possible on desktop pcs so why not mobile devices?
is it too much data to send? i would have thought HSDPA would be fast enough.

Standard 3G can manage video phonecalls, which are essentially identical to net video calls. Maybe internet calls have a little extra overhead and need slightly more cunning programming to overcome the lack of a dedicated network, but otherwise it's the same thing.
As far as I understand HTC's strategy is one of supporting and working with the carriers. As the carriers want us (in Europe at least) to make high-priced, and therefore high margin, video calls via our cam equipped devices, HTC disabled the front cam for any internet chatting, or voip calls.

You asked for the software that provides a webcam interface to PC, not whether it's compatible with Touch HD. You can test yourself if you want.
