really great software.
i found it - i installed it - and it works

but now i have two questions:

1. is there any way to disable the login? so that i can directly start it.
2. is there any way to start one client directly? i only have one client

1. you must activate the button on the login page and in the setup you create a cookie till one year
2. good question

 

[Snowhow]

1. i have done this, but it doesn't work.
2. still a good question

LOL - exactly what I was aiming for!

but now i have two questions:

2. is there any way to start one client directly? i only have one client

1. As well as using the 'Remember Me' button you have to configure the timeout in iPiMP, either when its being installed or by following the Tips & Tricks wiki. Also - make sure your Safari settings accepts cookies.
2. No. I'll add it to the ToDo list - if only one client is configured then try to contact that one.

1. Cookies are accepted. I've tried it again and it doesn't work again. Time in the Config is set to one year.

2. perhapts it will be the better way to add a "default client" - and if only one client ist configured, it will be the default client. so you can setup an default client also if you have more than one.

The quicktime arrow does not appear on my iphone instead I get two links, one download! and one play in mediaplayer. It seems like it downloads something when i hit download but I cannot play the recording? I can play the recording on my pc so the transcoding seems to be ok.

Seems like the problem is the url encoding, but even though i change the url it takes forever before it starts to play in a regular browser. On my iphone it does not play at all

Can you post a screenshot and also send some logs.

Here is a screenshot and the error.log from apache.

1. Can you send me the logs as described in the troubleshooting section of the wiki.

2. Good idea!

Now I know some of the iPiMP screens are untidy but that's ridiculous!!! That BOLD RED text or the 'Download' / 'Play in MediaPlayer' buttons don't come from iPiMP.

Are running some app store/cydia/installer app to do some file downloading stuff?

Also - if you use it from a regular browser it will try to download the entire file before playing I think.

Hi Cheezey, do you have a solution for the failure with Opera on the Omnia 900?

Hi Cheezey, do you have a solution for the failure with Opera on the Omnia 900?

No - the issue is with the WebApp.Net framework I use, it's on their radar to look at. But that framework (and iPiMP) is designed for the iPhone so Opera/Windows mobile was a nice to have if it worked.
