OH! I see how it works now. You have your TV connected through VGA with precreated BATCH (or C++) files that will load a video file in full screen. So when the IPAQ sends a command to your computer though WIFI, bluetooth, or link, it will run that batch and start the show.
that is stupid you just wanna show what you have but you're too stupid to explain, it's not even that good. u c what i'm saying make a point of the video and talk or do not share at all.
yeah it`s a lot of programs i know them before but they didnt work properly .. Now i know why .. but i wil appriciate if you share you apps :D thanks .
i have a ipaq i think the generation b4 urs....i tried one of these remote things didnt work to well..maybe its my ir port or the application...can u pls tell me what you did...or well better yet what program this is
if its not ir is it bluetooth and i didnt relize it was ur ur computer u wer doing this with i was like wow he can do that with his pda...i gotta find out how to do this at school lol and how close for the remote program cuz i had to be an inch away lol
well.. I created a program on my PC, which controls VLC.
I then created a program for my iPaq, which communicates, wirelessly, to my program on the PC... the program on the iPaq is then able to control VLC through the PC program...
I could have used bluetooth to do this, however, my PC does not have bluetooth, so I just used a normal Wifi connection.
By the way... I received my 214 today, and the first thing that greeted me on the blue background of the bootup was the bright magenta dot of a defective pixel (@#*§@!!), I then discovered another one elsewhere, which sums up to 2 of them. Did you notice any defective pixels on yours too?
When resetting the device, I discovered two dead pixels... one 2mm from the top edge.. and one about 1cm from the top edge. However, I it don't see them my device has booted up.
At least I'm not the only one, probably the VGA res makes its victims with the 4times larger pixel number. Maybe I'll get a return from HP, maybe not.
ipaq's dead now, I installed latest wisbar, some error about an unaccessible dll appeared, I pressed the reset, and after that the pocketpc won't go past the blue boot screen, just stays there giving no signs of life. I am definitely getting a return :D BTW, don't you think WM6 is horrible at managing apps? Takes 3 times more to boot than ipaq 2400, asks you permission on every app you start, and won't install cabs unless they are signed/you use a third party cab installer. Sheesh.
I've noticed the "permission thingy" alot. The only problem i've had was joining a wireless network using PEAP authentication with no server certificat.. I couldn't do that without hacking the registry database.
But you'll need a special cable or adapter to use the host (as I understood, you can't use the mini-USB for this purpose). And such an accessory doesn't yet exist! So the host is useless as of now :(
Realm of coolness. I mean, ipaq 214 (which I'm waiting for over here in italy), bleach, and the whole tech gear in your room. You're my new virtual friend :P
Do you still have this app? Could I have the URL for download. Have an OLD iPAQ I want to use as a remote... for VLC or XBMC

Looks like a useful program.
By VLC, you mean the media player, correct?
I use it all the time. If that's what you mean by VLC, can you upload the program to somewhere like rapidshare or something, and message me a link?
Thanks.

the TV is just a monitor, connected to my Windows Vista computer, where the server program controls VLC.

This is my own program. it does not use IR to control the TV.
However, I also used a old iPaq with IR port and a program called Pocket Remote (I think) it worked fine if I was close enough to the TV.

grinks123: according to the brighthand review.. the iPaq 214 does have USB host.. however, I have no experience using it.

that is true. and even if you did have a cable. you would need drivers for every hardware you connected.

Please, have iPAQ 214 USB host? Can you connect normal PC keyboard or USB flash memory with this PDA? Thank you for answer.
