I'm trying to get MJPEG stream from Vivotek camera to Windows Phone 7.
For this camera I need to set UnsafeHeaderParsing to true. I wrote similar appliction for win forms and to set this is easy using app.config file or in code,
like fo example here how to set useUnsafeHeaderParsing in code.
But I didn't find solution for Windows Phone and I'm afraid that there isn't one.
Does any workaround exists?
I know this is a bit extreme... If you simply can't access the IP cams server from windows phone your going to need a middle man...
There are a bunch of options you could make a basic web service host it anywhere. Have the phone user register their device, provide the IP they want to watch, and any other info you need.
The phone would then connect providing its device id and the service would pull in the steam from the camera take the data and return it to the connected client with "safe" headers.
I have to admit it seems like a lot of overhead but it does sound like fun to write ;)

Context: I'm working on a Windows 10 app that will allow users to quickly connect to a Bluetooth device. Because the native API is difficult to work with, I'm using the 'In The Hand' library. Anyway, back to the point: whenever I make a connect request. Before allowing me to connect, I receive this Pair a device notification.
I'm wondering if I can set Windows to automatically accept this permission for connecting the device. Is there a method in the Windows API that I can use to accomplish this?
Here is the link to the code: https://github.com/hasham7861/bluetooth-le-experiment/blob/master/Program.cs
In the picture I make a connect request to a bluetooth headset and then I get the notification on the bottom right, and only if I click allow to pair device then it pairs the device.
I hope this link helps you.
I apologize in advance if I misunderstood the question or if the data were meaningless

I'm implementing a game in Unity and I have a problem that I need advise for. I want to connect a tablet and a computer. The scene that is on the computer is supposed so send an event once an object is collected so that a special scene can be shown on the tablet. So based on what is happening on the computer there is a different scene shown on the tablet.
I only have no idea how to achieve that.
First, you need to create 2 different applications (for desktop and mobile). Second, you need to determine what protocol you want to connect desktop app and mobile app. The easiest way to implement this I think by using WebSocket/internet but not HTTP. Yes, you need to write code for the backend so it likes creating 3 different apps. But you can use firebase to simplify this process.
I recommended you use firestore from firebase. Connect booth app to firestore. When desktop app sends data to firestore, firebase will automatically notify mobile app and send that data. But you need to figure out yourself how to pair a desktop app and a mobile app otherwise, your firestore will receive data from all connected desktop app and send the same data to all connected mobile app.

But before that, you need to add firebase to your project before you add firestore:

You can use any wireless protocol available. You can even use Bluetooth if you want your app offline. But I don't know how to use Bluetooth...
I've been given the task of building a Windows Mobile app for our company that quickly pairs a device by scanning it's bar code. I can discover the device, and talk to it, but I am stuck as far as pairing.
In C# / Windows Mobile 6, how do I pair a device? I don't really need to talk to the device within the app, I need to pair it so other applications can use it.
Is there an API I need to do this? I've seen things saying I need to register a pass key, etc? I can't seem to find any documentation on the actual pairing process, just connecting to it. (Just connecting to it, doesn't actually pair it.)
You can use my library 32feet.NET. Use method BluetoothSecurity.PairRequest See e.g. Bluetooth Security (That should work regardless of whether the device has Microsoft's own Bluetooth stack installed or the device has Widcomm/Broadcom or SSO Bluetopia).
The process of 'pairing' should also enable the services at the same time. If not we probably have other APIs for that too. Which services are used? SerialPort, others?
well guys, i am part of one team. (I dont have the project yet, i am new).
They did a application using gps, problem is it fail sometimes...
why? they think gps fails because users has the device in "energy saving" mode; then the device hibernates
after 5 minutes if they dont use it.
GPS brings sometimes bad coordinates (for example coordinate shows users is on "SEA" or in "Japan". I repeat, My partners thinks problem is because device is in "energy saving" mode. how can i change this configuration with C# while application is running (maybe back old configuration when application has been closed).
I am using this library.
using Microsoft.WindowsMobile.Samples.Location;
I can't check if it works because now i dont have a device, and i my computer doesn't have GPS, do you have any idea for i can check the application?.
i am using
`"Windows Mobile 6.0 SDK"`
You can install networking functionality while using the Microsoft Device Emulator. This blog explains how to setup network functionality on Windows 7. Follow the official documentation if you're not using Windows 7.
You can emulate GPS functionality using the FakeGPS program supplied by Microsoft. If you want anything close to real data you'll need a text file containing raw NMEA to feed into FakeGPS. You can simply record bytes passed through the GPS COM port to a file to generate a NMEA file. If fake GPS doesn't like your file then remove the non-standard NMEA lines and try again.
You should do some research on Windows Mobile Power Management first to understand the problem. The quickest hack is to simply call SystemIdleTimerReset() more frequently than the battery idle timeout (use SystemParametersInfo() and SPI_GETBATTERYIDLETIMEOUT) to prevent the device from sleeping. This will decrease the battery life of the device! There are other more elegant solutions available such as using the Power Management API.
As a minor project in my degree I would like to communicate mobile and pc .I am interested to communicate through bluetooth is it possible to do so in c#?
If possible please provide me list of application or hardware i would requiere in order to do so.
thanks in advance
If (and it's a big if based on the lack of information in your question) you mean "How do I write an app on my PC, using C#, that can communicate with a Windows Mobile device that is connected to my PC via ActiveSync or WMDC" then the answer is RAPI. A free, open-source managed wrapper for it is here.
Yes its possible if its with windows mobile phone or pocket pc with bluetooth. You need a bluetooth enabled computer and mobile phone. For dev you need to download the windows mobile 6 sdk.
Then developing of the communication between desktop app and mobile phone app, you can use the 32feet.Net is open source.
When you download it and installs (well it unpacks to program files folder) you will have the dll that you make reference to in Visual Studio. Also you will get some sample apps. One of them is a Bluetooth Chat that works in Desktop, Pocket PC and SmartPhone.
Another option you could use is set up a web service that acts like an intermediary between the device and your machine. One huge benefit of this is that no longer are you bound by the distance requirements of bluetooth.
Of course if you're trying to build some sort of proximity service (do z when item x is 3 meters from item y) then bluetooth is probably the way to go.
