Hi!

I am German, staying permanently in UK.
Please bare my english.

I like to run a 3G mobile phone (like NEC e808y available from three.co.uk) as a camera to provide live video (and audio) streaming to about 100-300 recipients in the Internet using real technology.

Idea is to
1) Transfer live video (and audio) data to a PC.
2) Encode it using real technology.
3) Ditribute it using real technology.

Point 1) seems to be the problem:

Cenario A:
In the e808y manual there is a short chapter "making a vido call to a PC running a webcam".
Unfotunatelly three.co.uk told me this service is not available in UK.
So I thought there may be a independent service provider?

Any ideas?

Cenario B:
Can I run two 3G mobile phones, one connected permanently to the PC (maybe as a pc card?) acting a receiver
and the other one to act as the camera?

Any ideas?

The call a Webcam service is based on a GW that "three" has .... you have to register a MS Netmeeting to a public Gatekeeper and you will be able to receive a call from the NEC.

But it is not NEC to Streaming.

If you had an H.324M to H.323 GW like the Radvision one you could have on the H.323 side a product like Starbak.com and stream it.

It is not what I would call a personal tool.

Techincally this is very easy to achieve, why would you want to though? Doubt a service provider would want to implement as revenue would be tiny compared to cost of implementing the service.

OK,

all I want is to do a live video and audio transmission from a mobile to about 200-300 recipients using whatoever by internet.

Any ideas?

And it has to be cheap!
It doesn't matter how much the minute of live transmission is, but I do not want to spend thousands for hardware.

Thanks,
JanMartin
