PyS60 video streaming: Is it possible?

Is there any way to capture and play back a video stream on the terminal with PyS60?:confused:

hello Reiben

welcome to Python developer discussion boards. :)

PyS60 doesnt have a API which directly helps in video streaming, But you can see this [URL="http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.php/Accessing_public_Qik_streams_from_S60_phones"]article[/URL] written by fellow champion marcelo which explains how to access public Qik streams.

Hope that helps you.

And... would it be possible to call CVideoPlayerUtility::OpenUrlL() from a PyS60 application to open a video streaming in RealPlayer?

no you cant use the class CVideoPlayerUtility in Python directly.

Instead what you can do is make a extension for that and use it is PyS60. :)

Regards,

I've been practicing with this simple example: uikludges, based on these links:

The problem is that I am a Python developer but I do not know too Symbian :o . I'm trying to build a C++ extension for PyS60 that allows me to open and close a streaming video on the media player.

Could anyone guide me to the Symbian code that would need to develop this extension?:confused:

Or a manual?

Yeah you can make some kind of video stream by using viewfinder, saving picture in callback function of viewfinder and then reading from the file and sending it to another device every time
