Lastly, I would love to see this on my Treo 650, or my future Windows Mobile device. Can't wait, but Im thirlled that I can pop open a TV when Im on the road - been waiting for this for a while!

I would LOVE to see this on my Windows Mobile phone... I think this would be the killer app that would take Sage from great to phenomenal.

We should see this feature when the picture-in-picture feature is available.

Like has beenmentioned many times in other threads, the developers don't spend much if any time on these boards, so if you want to put in a feature suggestion, email it to them. I did, and if more and more of us do... it might get something started,

If I can get a good price on his time, maybe we could pass the hat and take up a collection? Who's up for chipping in to make this happen?

A neat extension of the "Placeshifter on PocketPC" idea would be a Placeshifter To Go implementation as well. I may not always have network connectivity via my PocketPC but it would be nice to indicate a subset of shows/favourites that I would like synched to my device and have Sage automatically transcode those shows as or after they are recorded to a folder somewhere. This folder would then be synched to my PocketPC at regular intervals (or whenever I happen to connect my PocketPC to my Sage Server). Thus, on the road, I could always tote around a subset of my favourites to watch whenever I got the chance using the familiar Sage UI (excepting Live TV capabilities when netwrok connectivity is not available). This way if I am connected I can use Placeshifter as per normal but if I'm not connected (on a plane for instance) I can still watch whatever shows were synched to my device.

Cheers
Lester

Couldn't it be modified to work with smartphones (Nokia, Treo 650, ...) also?
I'd be happy to beta any versions (I have one of each ).

If you use the Sage2iPod program (elsewhere on the forums), you can achieve this. I was even able to schedule the transcoding of the Channel 6 news each night and have it copied to my SD card so long as it was in the card reader. It works great on my XV6600 w/ WME2003SP2.

One comment, though -- at least on this device the battery life really sucks! The cell-phone placeshifter would only be usefull if you were at a place where you could plug your phone into a power source. So airplanes are out :-( But for those long car drives across country where I have a cigarette lighter....

having bought a htc wizard not more than a few months ago and wondering how i ever got by without one before. sagetv on my pda would own. until then i think i'll look into setting up a vpn or something to play around with. i might come up with a workable solution for the short term.

I'd add my support for this as well. In fact, this is my first first post here, and something that would push me over the edge into purchasing this software package. I haven't even setup a HTPC yet...just gathering up the pertinent info to make those informed decisions.

I vote for a Windows Mobile placeshifting app as well. It would be absolutely fantastic to have such capability esp with unlimited data plans becoming all the rage. It would be like carrying around a little of "home" with you at all times.

I'm wondering though for you sage users...are any of you using orb to tide you over in the meanwhile? Does orb in any way compete for resources with Sage (i.e. tuner card, etc.)? Someone earlier was knocking Orb for its lack of stability. I've only heard great things about orb so far.

I'm using Orb to get by for now, but it has it's limitations. I'm using a Verizon XV6600 in an EVDO area. Orb has been flawless streaming audio and serving jpegs. While its working its great, but I don't think I've ever made it through a full show without Orb causing some kind of media player error.

Orb uses around 60mb of RAM on my system while sitting idle. It probably uses a lot more memory and CPU while compressing/streaming video, but I've never checked.

A Sage client would kill Orb by hopefully providing more stability and the entire Sage UI including stv's (comskip). Being able to view shows the same way Sage organizes them would also be a big plus (grouped by title, watched status, etc.). Orb only offers an alphabetical listing.

Orb is the best I've found for now, but I'd buy a license for a Windows Mobile 2003 Placeshifter in a heartbeat.

Just acquired a XV6700 (Windows Mobile 5 Smartphone) Tried the miniclient with MysaifuJVM, no luck. Really wanting a client, even if it doesn;t have the mediaplayer first, just to get to the sage interface would be awesome. Would let me add programs at the last minute from the road or something.

Yep, I would love to see something like this for my Treo when the next release makes it's appearance...

Smile I want it

I have one of those Miami Vice cell phones with the huge brick and external handset that looks like a Ma Bell phone... Having a mobile client for Sage would seriously cause me to rethink purchasing a smart-phone... Although my current cell phone saves me money since I don't have to have a gym membership from carrying it around. Decisions!

You can already do that, by running the webserver on your Sage server. I can just connect using IE on my XDA and schedule recordings using the webserver. A bit clunky on the small screens, but setting up recordings is a breeze.

I'll throw myself into the group knocking Orb for its lack of stability. I tried it until Sling released their PocketPC client. Orb does have some stability problems which are very frustrating. In my experience, it works like it's supposed to 70% of the time...
