Re: Flashcam project for Linux (bounty for N800?)
 

Is there a site or file that uses a mic? For me I get the access dialog, but no selector on the ones I've seen.

You might also need to use the plug-in mic/headset or a BT microphone.

Hmm... I did find one game, Flight over Sahara, which uses sound and video.

Unfortunately, I still don't have video working; it appears that sed was running out of disk trying to backup the file; the install seemed to succeed, though, it just didn't work. I'm working through it, but it seems the package isn't quite proper when dealing with low disk space... and I regret having no particular advice on how to improve it, not knowing debian packaging.

I also (having manually seded without the .bak, and retrying the install) get these:
The former seems to indicate the module was already loaded? (It is, at any rate, loaded afterwards.) Not sure on the second one.

It works now, anyway, repeating so I could paste errors was the cure...

(Works for video; I can't make it fire by sound using BT headset. Fortunately, tapping the screen fires.) Framerate is atrocious, but it is kinda cool... and low framerate means I can play it while typing this without getting run down. :D

Try www.mebeam.com which is like tokbox but requires no registration -- also has multiparty. i wonder if the n800 could handle more than 2 parties. :)

if you look at /etc/init.d/flashcam, it has the sed script.

It swaps /dev/video for /dev/v4lv1 somewhere in the libflashplayer.so and tries to form a backup. It must be really low memory to have less than 10mb.

Well, of course it's really low memory. I'm running steady state about 4MB free for the past month. ;)

But I'm shifting to SD (and finally trying to install Diablo...) tomorrow. Had to wait till the end of the semester to mess with this stuff. :D

tz1: Just installed your deb and it works great! Great job on this!

Is anybody having success with the mic working?

Re: Flashcam project for Linux (bounty for N800?)
 

Mic: The box for config will come up but not show any devices, so I don't know. The .so doesn't have a /dev/audio or /dev/dsp like I'd expect, but I can't be sure.

Mebeam.com did work, I was in stereo(scopic) since I have a PHS-300 and my macbook was on the motel's wireless. I could hear my Macbook on the Nokia, but not vice versa.

before vloopback is installed does audio work? i'm getting a replacement device tomorrow so I will try it out before i install it again. i'm impressed with how well the video works. this has the potential of being as big as video in skype would have been since services like tokbox work with any IM.

This is amazing! The tablets keep getting better each day. One more thing the iPhone cant do! This works great with a flash based security program I wrote a few years ago, its like a mobile IP camera! Thanks a lot. One question though, how do I know if the program is running. Does it use a deamon to see if flash wants a camera or what? Running flashcam from xterm usually gives , but it works nevertheless. Anyway, great port!
