Embedding Camera feed into application ?

[gros.lalo]

Hi,

I am trying to embed the camera feed on my N97 into an WRT application. i have followed the "Chained Mode" method described in the Web Library. However the effect is not the desired one. I was hoping that the camera feed would be really embedded as one would expect with the <EMBED> of html. In fact, the camera opens as if one would have launched it separately from the Widget.

Here is the code i am using:

function startCamera()
{
    try 
    {
        var serviceObject = device.getServiceObject("Service.AppManager", "IAppManager");
        var criteria = new Object();
        criteria.ApplicationID = "s60uid://0x101f857a";
        criteria.Option = new Object();
        criteria.Option.Mode = "Chained";
        
        serviceObject.IAppManager.LaunchApp(criteria);
    } 
    catch (error) 
    {
        alert(error.toString());
    }
}

I have also installed the plaformservices 2.0 but cannot manage to get the right effect. Next thing i tried was to try to access the URL of the camera feed as a StreamingURL using the MMS API and tried to embed that using the <EMBED> tag but here again no success. Here is that code which i have been using to get he URL. This code works fine with other media types (e.g. below "Video") but not, StreamingURL:

function getListOfStreamingMedia()
{
    print("Getting List of Streaming Media ...<br>");

    try 
    {
        var serviceObject = device.getServiceObject("Service.MediaManagement", "IDataSource");
        var criteria = new Object();
        criteria.Type = "FileInfo";
        criteria.Filter = new Object();
        criteria.Filter.FileType = "Video";
        var result = serviceObject.IDataSource.GetList(criteria, printResult);
    }
    catch(error) 
    {
        print(error);
    }

}

function printResult(transId, eventCode, result)
{
    var resultAsAString = generateReturnedValuesAsString(result.ReturnValue);
    print(resultAsAString);
}

function generateReturnedValuesAsString(listOfValues)
{
    var value;
    var str = "";
    try
    {
        listOfValues.reset();
        while ((value = listOfValues.getNext()) != undefined)
        {
            str += convertValueToString(value);
            str += "<hr>";
        }
    }
    catch(error)
    {
        alert("generateReturnedValuesAsString: " + error);
    }
    return str;
}

function convertValueToString(value)
{
    var str = "";
    try 
    {
        if (typeof value != "object")
        {
            return "" + value;
        }
        else 
        {
            for(var key in value) 
            {
                str += key + " - ";
                str += convertValueToString(value[key]);
                str += "<br>";
            }
        }
    }
    catch (error)
    {
        alert("convertValueToString: " + error);
    }
    return str;
}

So, is it that Camera Feed is not a StreamingURL. If so, would anyone have some suggestions and corrections ?

Thanks
