From: matthew on 17 Apr 2008 11:07 Hi All. I have researched this topic to death, and on a few times came pretty close to success. What I would like to accomplish is get my PC's sounds to my Tilt. I do not mean my music and movies, I can do that just fine with Orb. What I would like is something that brings all sounds on my PC to my Tilt. I tried Windows Media Encoder and got it to work, to my laptop and other computers, but I can not pick up the stream with my Tilt, not in the WMP I get a bad parameter error. I tried at least 4 other audio streaming programs to pick up that stream from my Windows Media Encoder, no luck. I also have www.logmein.com pro which works just great, but thier product does not send sound. So, I have decided to ask the community here if anyone has successfully brought "What you hear" sounds from your home computer to your Pocket PC. (I have a mac at home too maybe that has a solution,) seems like it should be kind of easy, but for me it is not. Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is the fine ability I would like on mt Tilt for it to be the ideal item for me. Thanks so much! -Matthew

If you can stream sound to other computers, then you probably don't have the parameters you are using quit right. Did you add the port to use, such as :8080 in the address you are using?

As has also been explained in my Remote Desktop Access Bible ( http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=1571&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 ) , the all-in-one resource of answers to all these questions, it's currently only the WM6 client (RDM), which can also be installed under WM5, that can transfer the sound from the desktop to the handheld. However, it's certainly an overkill and there are tons of alternate solutions; for example, SHOUTcast, should you not manage to make the WME connection work. See my related tutorial in, say, my Radio Stream Transcoding Bible at http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=2399&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1#more2399 Nevertheless, I'd certainly try WME once more so that you don't need to install SHOUTcast. I've successfully streamed from my home WME server to my PDA several times, independent of the network topology. -- -- Werner "Menneisyys" Ruotsalainen - Microsoft MVP - Windows - Mobile Devices Please see the Pocket PC Mag Expert Blog (including mine) at http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/ - you will definitely like it.
