Guest Dumdidum Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 I have now released the new betas of :arrow: Powerpoint Remote (0.5.1) and :arrow: Media Remote (0.9.8 ) Powerpoint Remote has been improved significantly and should now work correctly! They both have a new installer (wise), thus the installation problems should now be solved Make sure that you have installed the embedded Visual Basic runtimes (avalaible here: www.ruttensoft.com) For more informations visit www.ruttensoft.com Sven Rutten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dumdidum Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 Hm, with the new ROM bluetooth is working really good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ma_rK Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 BT range is just 2 small on the E200. Compared it to a P900. E200 --> 2m P900 --> 7a9m Same crappy BT headset :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dumdidum Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 I have a bluetooth range of about 7 meters with my SPV E200! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nedge2k Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 2m!? Im gettin at least 7 and i dont have the new rom. Remote works great except that i need a dial-up connection for it to work! Without connection my IP is 127.0.0.1 and media remote doesnt like it. With connection its something like 258.105.228.89 and it works fine, although it changes with every new connection. Am i doing something wrong? To get my IP i enter cmd.exe and run either "ping computer (my comp's name)" or "ipconfig". Also i've noticed that the sound quality has been reduced quite a bit. Apart from that (and the other thing i drunkenly PM'd you about last night :oops: ), its awsome. Just walked to the kitchen flicking through the tracks as i went :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dumdidum Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 Hm in that case you don't have yet broadband connection... :D NO 127.0.0.0 is the localhost-IP, that can only be accessed on the same PC :D I will check that, which windows do you have? the PM was funny :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest kiffy Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 To get around the problem of having to use a dial-up connection try adding the Microsoft Loopback Adapter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nedge2k Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 Cheers mate. Works a treat. @Dumdidum Yeah i got broadband but it runs off USB and the laptop only has one port :) so if i want internet and bluetooth at the same time i have to use PCMCIA 56k modem. Doesnt matter now anyway, MS Loopback Aptaptor has sorted it out. Jus gota get me a cheap USB hub. Oh yeah, running XP. Gonna install Longhorn 4051 soon. Be interesting to see how it works with that OS. Gotta get more RAM first and clock my CPU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest t3dluke Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 Why dont you just put in the computer name eg LUKESDESKTOP is what I use and that works, IP is 10.0.0.x assigned by DHCP from the router. Works fine. Having trouble getting powerpoint working though as it wont let me type in the box where it says file path, maybe i missed something in the installation.

Guest kiffy Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 has anyone seen anything similar to media remote for pocket pc? There is an MSDN Article that has the source code for what you are looking for. If you need this compiling or want any changes let me know.

Guest Dumdidum Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 Longhorn 4051 It is working on Longhorn 4051 - I have tested it myself :) But longhorn 4051 has a lot of bugs and is not stable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dumdidum Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 Having trouble getting powerpoint working though as it wont let me type in the box where it says file path, maybe i missed something in the installation. If it does not recognize the path automaticly (should work with XP and Powerpoint 2003) you can manually select the path by clicking on the left button "Path of Powerpoint" If you do not see this path, you have to download the newest version!

Guest t3dluke Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 The current remotes for PPC are overly complex in their display, a port of media remote using the same interface would be great. I could use the WLAN on my PDA then so the range would be massive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest AdrianFRST Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 This is outstanding work :) What I'd love to see is a facility to play an entire directory. I don't tend to use playlists much. Some kind of file browser so you can browse for specific files without having to add them to a list first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
