Chris Martin’s Adventures in “Stranger” Mobile Media
Students at Montclair State University in New Jersey (of all places) are receiving Motorola cellphones to connect to a campus network where they can get information such as dining hall menus and even bus locations updated every few seconds. The system is being developed by a New York based company called Rave Wireless Inc. and […]
It seems that my jimbo server that I setup with Darwin Streaming Server is really getting hated on… The university network (including NMI and SLC, excluding Terry) doesn’t like to stream from it, it seems like they’re doing some packet shaping or something and really limiting the bandwidth, maybe they think it’s porn? And now, […]
Well I finally stopped ranting about streaming and actually did it! I have successfully installed the open source version of “Apple’s Quicktime Streaming Server”:http://www.apple.com/quicktime/streamingserver/, “Darwin Streaming Server”:http://developer.apple.com/darwin/projects/streaming/ (which website looks more inviting) on my linux development box (read “ubuntu”:http://www.ubuntulinux.org/ running on a 1ghz athlon that I mess up rather than my shared host that I […]
Some thoughts…
What we have accomplished with video on our Nokia 6620’s so far is pretty great. We have solved the problem we where having with downloading 3gp files to the phone and having them automatically load into real-player and play, something that surprisingly no one else has posted about on the net (1. that we […]
New Media needs one of “these”:http://presslink.dlink.com/pr/?prid=245!
“D-link”:http://www.dlink.com announced yesterday that they are releasing a wireless internet camera that has native 3gpp output so you can connect to it and watch the live video from a cellphone, this could totally be ArchCamII. I _guess_ we could hack something together to have _live_ video from a camera […]
I’m working on a project with Clate to set up a webcam aimed at the arch in downtown Athens which people can use to take their picture in front of the arch by calling in to a phone number. The Camera is currently sitting in Clate’s office however so anything I do with it until […]
I’m here at the NMI at 6:30 on a Friday… But! I have figured out the default browser problem on the 6620!
Our problem was not with any settings on the phone itself, but in the settings of the servers we were hosting the files on. I came accross “this forum post”:http://discussion.forum.nokia.com/forum/showthread.php?s=fd9ea6b0c7e2c3e25d3d62bc5dede670&threadid=56145&goto=nextoldest where someone was having […]
After using “Podcast AV”:http://www.oldjewelsoftware.com/products/podcastav/ for my first podcast and having a fairly painless experience, with the exception of having to manually write the final “XML”:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XML for the “RSS”:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSS feed, I thought I’d go out on a limb and try a new piece pf software called “Podcast Maker”:http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/internet_utilities/ this time around. Podcast Maker was appealing because […]
I’ve created a Mobile Media wiki where we can keep our notes for our meetings if everyone would like… It’s editable by anyone and is really simple to use. I’ve added in my notes for last week’s meeting and they should be viewable at “http://wiki.roundhere.net/mms”:http://wiki.roundhere.net/mms -pretty soon-. -Right now, check it out “here”:http://roundhere.net:2505/mms/-.
Also, I’ve started […]
It’s come to my attention that people reading all about this cool mobile media stuff might actually like to know who this “Chris Martin” person really is…
Well, if you haven’t already googled me and discovered that I am the lead singer of the band “Coldplay”:http://www.coldplay.com/ (nice iPod add look on the website) and I’m married […]
