Streaming to Android ( HTC MAGIC )

[peppens1]

Hi everybody!

I'm Giuseppe from Italy.
Anyone have and android phone like G1 or G2?
I have the Htc Magic ( know as G2 ) , and today I tried to stream a MP4 video and an AVI video to my telephone.
I used vlc with transcodific Mp4v and with resize video ( width=176,height=144)

I tried the HTTP mode, and the phone associated the link ( http:192.168.0.8/test.3gp ) with the video player but doesn't open the stream.
The RTSP mode doesn't work, because the android browser open the RTSP links like a google search .
About the exisisting MMS link like web tv or radio, the phone like the symbian OPEN those links in Menu Message writing because considere these links "MMS message" .

anyone can help me?

Can you transfer files to your phone directly, like over a USB cable? What I suggest is taking things one step at a time with figuring out how to get VLC to make a compatible file that your phone will play (off the phone's local storage), then figuring out what transports (http, mms, rtsp) your phone and carrier support.

You could try sout-chain from viewtopic.php?f=4&t=59163&p=203139#p203139, I've used it to stream for android over 3g-network.

Android default browser seems to pickup rtsp-links only from html-pages, not directly typed in, so you need to make 'dummy'-page to contain that rtsp-link.

Well there are other apps for this job. I dont know about VLC though.

The best one would be Sugsonic, Homepipe. Jukefly is also good, have a look over a good list here: http://techsplurge.com/2456/6-top-appli ... videos-pc/
