Streaming video problem

[q-live]

Im trying to stream video but not just for pc but for pocket pc and all cell phones well i found a software that i wanted to try out since its a playerless stream software (basically will stream to str8 browswer like ie or netscape) well i just tried it and what do you know it came back saying my browser on my 6315 doesnt support java. WHAT THE HELL!!!!! So do i have to also install java on my ie on my phone???? i thought all internet explorers come with java already built in???? hell it came wit flash built in so whats the problem????

You have two options for enabling (non-MIDP) Java Applets on your Pocket PC:

- the JEODE PIE plug-in. A bit bulkier than Netfront 3.1

- Netfront 3.1 with the Java plug-in.

The latter, because of the integration of the Java engine into the browser is clearly better in situations like those that require more screen estate than QVGA. (The PIE plugin being a plug-in, doesn't allow for larger applet areas than the QVGA size).

As for compatibility, I've tested both Java engines with several applets. Unfortunately, both failed at running alot of them (even ones that the other engine ran OK). So, if you want maximal compatibility, install both engines. I strongly suspect that they won't run any current (read: JDK1.4/1.5) multimedia applets, though.

If the applet still runs, don't expect much speed-wise; particularly not in multimedia applications like multimedia video streaming.

You may have meant MIDP's. I've just posted a MIDP-on-PPC tutorial in the PPCT forums some days ago; use the forum search to find it (I can't do it now because I'm writing from a PDA and searching doesn't work). Look for 'MIDP', 'IBM', 'games', 'Nokia'.

Searching with the Search button up there for MIDP IBM games Nokia, all words, came up with this link (http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=36013&highlight=midp+ibm+games+nokia).
