What is this?
This is a client side port of the Smartcam Client software
It lets you use your N900 to stream video from either video0 or video1 to your windows PC, using it as a webcam.
Its compatible with most programs, skype, msn, etc.

IF YOU INSTALLED THE ORIGINAL C# VERSION, GO THROUGH THE INSTALL.SH AND REVERSE THE COMMANDS, THEN GO TO http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...3&postcount=19 AND REMOVE THE MONO RUNTIMES IF YOU ARENT USING THEM ANYMORE

What do I need?
- You need gstreamer installed
What do I do?
#0 Enable your wifi/usb networking!
#1 Download and install Smartcam for Windows
#2 Download and install Smartcam for Maemo 5
#3 Look through your applications, you should see Smartcam M5.
#4 Make sure Smartcam is running on Windows, make sure youve allowed it through firewalls.
#5 Open up Smartcam M5, put in the IP of your Windows PC and port for Smartcam; eg; 192.168.2.14:9361
#6 Hit <save> then hit <Start>

That should be it, if all went well you should be seeing live video on the Smartcam Windows side.

ToDo
Client
- Fix things, probably
- New logo/icon
- Back LED enable/disable

Server
- Code my own Smartcam server
- Windows & Linux
- Higher resolution stream
- Audio stream

End

Ive got just about as many more on my desktop, too.
Those have gathered up throughout the weeks ive been working on this, all relevant in one way- big or small. lolol.

Be sure to put libmono*, with the asterisk.
If it still doesnt work,

Trying running it from terminal;
mono /etc/smartcam-m5/smartcam-m5.exe

Re: [Announce] Smartcam Maemo 5 Port
 

tried to install libmono* same thing....couldn`t find package.Try to run it from terminal I get " the assembly mscorlib.dll was not found or could not be loaded.It should have been installed in the /usr/lib/mono/2.0/mscorelib.dll directory

what`s libmono* ? Is there another way of installing it?

Re: [Announce] Smartcam Maemo 5 Port
 

Ill look into it when I wake up (in around 3 hours, blah), sorry.
5:34am, I really shouldve went to bed at 8pm.

Try the apt-get again with extras enabled and testing or also try adding:
to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/hildon-application-manager.list

then apt-get update and apt-get install libmono*

Re: [Announce] Smartcam Maemo 5 Port
 

Is there any chance something like VLC can be used as a client for those of us that "don't do" windows?

Re: [Announce] Smartcam Maemo 5 Port
 

Smartcam is available for linux, at the very least

Re: [Announce] Smartcam Maemo 5 Port
 

ouch! Installed the libmono libraries (they are a LOT!) and now my rootfs is down to 30mb from 60mb

and on top of this the program still doesn`t work

How do I uninstall these?

Thanks

EDIT: Never mind they are in the uninstall HAM directory

Re: [Announce] Smartcam Maemo 5 Port
 

apt-get remove libmono* one would imagine. Well I guess I wont be installing this until those libs are optified.
