Guest chewie Posted December 22, 2002 Report Posted December 22, 2002 ^ Dont worry about it, i didnt give you a warning as i knew you wasnt maliciously trying to pirate this software :D We just have to be careful thats all, i dont think O and Handango would be to pleased with us if we allowing evenyone who reads the forum to DL the software for free. I bet the peeps at handango are going to be shocked first thing monday morning when they read all of our complaint emails :(
Guest kevlar Posted December 23, 2002 Report Posted December 23, 2002 I've had an apologetic email back from ia style about the download link. They also emailed me the file. Not sure what I paid for it though ( see above post ). Can the others that bought it log on to handango ( through link below )and see how much it says they paid please? http://mobile.handango.com/orange/MyLogin.....jsp?siteId=549 Kevlar
Guest chewie Posted December 23, 2002 Report Posted December 23, 2002 I got the same email through this morning too. If i goto handango through that link its says i paid £19.99 for it, if i goto handango home page, then log in that way it says i paid $19.95 Gues we'll just have to wait for our credit card statements until we know how much we really paid for it.
Guest fcm Posted December 23, 2002 Report Posted December 23, 2002 Everytime I use "orange update" the answer is "Your device is up to date...jap jap).. Why is tha ? I have seen many videos introducing the SPV where there was alot of updates able..! v. 1.6 : Is it 20$(euro) what so ever)) worth ? Is the refreshrate in 1.6 better than MMS-cam ? It's quite bad in MMS though!
Guest akarno Posted December 24, 2002 Report Posted December 24, 2002 Just a quick report on IA Album. First, I can report that if you buy it off this link: http://mobile.handango.com/orange/home.jsp You can now download it directly without any problems. I have to agree with mikey808 that video is largely a waste of time and why they included audio recording when it clearly does not work correctly is a mystery to me. Having said that I can now say that by SPV is a also a fully functioning (low res) digital camera. The stills software is well thought out and works well. I have pretty much worked out all the functions after about 15 minutes use. A manual of some sort would be useful though. I would recommend this software, but only as a stills camera. It is a shame this was not included with the phone as I am sure it would be a great selling point.
Guest muude Posted December 24, 2002 Report Posted December 24, 2002 My audio works like a charm. For once I haven't got a software problem....
Guest akarno Posted December 24, 2002 Report Posted December 24, 2002 muude The sound does not work correctly for me and generally I have not had problems with the phone. When playing back the clip, the sound breaks up and finishes before the video. Where have you insatlled the app, on the phone or an SD card. Also, are you recording to the main phone memory or SD card.
Guest kevlar Posted December 24, 2002 Report Posted December 24, 2002 akarno, there is a manual for download on thier websire in pdf form. Kevlar
Guest casper508 Posted December 25, 2002 Report Posted December 25, 2002 Sounds good enough to me :D (and runs off to buy it) Cas
Guest HelloDave Posted December 25, 2002 Report Posted December 25, 2002 Anyone know exactly what they actually paid for IA Album yet? Like a lot of other people, Handango tell me £19.95, IA Style tell me $19.99. Hmmm...
Guest IA Style Posted December 26, 2002 Report Posted December 26, 2002 Hi all, thanks for your interest and patience with the IA Album for Smartphone software. Just as an FYI, our typical policy is to release software upgrades about every 3 to 6 months. Usually, these upgrades are free for all registered owners. Please continue to send in your feedback, we have already started a wishlist for the next version of IA Album for Smartphone. We have a User Manual and an FAQ section for IA Album for Smartphone at: http://www.iastyle.com/smartphone/index.asp About the image/video capture speed in the Camera module, this is largely limited by the serial UART interface used for interfacing the existing camera to the SPV phone. At a maximum 112.5 kbps (roughly 11.25 KB/s) transmission speed used in the current camera, the preview and capture speed will all be seriously limited. The IA Album for Smartphone software itself can deliver a preview up to 20 frames per second, but the actual results depend on the hardware's ability. For a typical VGA-size JPEG image to move from camera to phone, it will take few seconds. We will keep trying to improve our software, and hopefully in partnership with Orange, we can improve preview speed. Thanks again for everyone's comments. Hopefully everyone who has purchased IA Album for Smartphone has received the final version of the software. If not, please write to us at [email protected]
Guest Posted December 26, 2002 Report Posted December 26, 2002 Are there any plans to integrate infrared sending of images into IA Album?
Guest casper508 Posted December 26, 2002 Report Posted December 26, 2002 Right.... 2 thing 1) The software costs $19.00 (its says £12.66 on my statement) 2) Not a TOTAL waste of money but not too far from it. Fully functioning digital camera ?? yeah right !! The process that took 6-10 secs before now takes 3-6. Not too much of the difference. You have to keep still for atleast 3 secs AFTER taking the pic. Isnt that what we had to go thru before. Only PLUS point i can think of is the ability to AUTOSAVE. Do MS/O/Handango/IA think we are jackasses who will keep on buying new updates every 3-6 months just for bits and pieces of added functionality ? No way !! Cas
Guest casper508 Posted December 26, 2002 Report Posted December 26, 2002 Thats $19.99 and NOT $19.00 cas
Guest kevlar Posted December 26, 2002 Report Posted December 26, 2002 How about the ability to email a pic casper? Kevlar
Guest casper508 Posted December 26, 2002 Report Posted December 26, 2002 MMS to an email address was always there. Look at it this way... An MMS will always cost you 40p no matter what the size and size does tend to vary (20-150 Kb at 640x680). Whereas with email attachments you'll be paying lot more for the same 150kb pic. (unless you buy a 5Mb or more bundle) Advantage / Disadvantage? Cas
Guest Lojt Posted December 27, 2002 Report Posted December 27, 2002 My pics are only like 30ish kb... And its nice to be able to send the pics from your own email adress instead of some wierd orange mail...
Guest akarno Posted December 27, 2002 Report Posted December 27, 2002 It's great being able to send photo via e-mail. Has anyone come across a way of sending more than one picture on an e-mail. :idea: If not, maybe IA style can think about adding this for the next release.
Guest DJHope Posted December 28, 2002 Report Posted December 28, 2002 Erm pretty sure IA album hasnt hung up on me but the mms software must have at least 4 times, thats one plus.
Guest fcm Posted December 31, 2002 Report Posted December 31, 2002 Whats the best settings for capturing live-video ? 50-60 hz ? What about the fps ?
Guest HelloDave Posted January 1, 2003 Report Posted January 1, 2003 I second antlane - I'd love to be able to send jpegs from the SPV via infrared. Just found out my printer can print jpegs directly from its infared port - ahh the possibilities... Also a lot of big laser printers at workplaces etc have infrared, not that i'd use it for free printing or anything of course!
Guest wahblow Posted January 2, 2003 Report Posted January 2, 2003 Does any one know why IA style have stopped selling IA Album
Guest kevlar Posted January 2, 2003 Report Posted January 2, 2003 That's a strange one!. Maybe they have come accross a nasty bug and have decided to put it on hold until it's fixed. If that's the case I assume I'll be getting a free upgrade. Kevlar
Guest Shuflie Posted January 2, 2003 Report Posted January 2, 2003 Perhaps they didn't like how quickly it was being pirated and decided to pull out of the SPV market.
Guest MungoJ Posted January 3, 2003 Report Posted January 3, 2003 Maybe they are building in activation like all-explorer Pulling a finished product wouldn`t make any sense at all.
