I used this on my curve before and loved it. It allowed me to wake up the pc from a standby mode since it has a option to turn the camera on/off manually or leave it set up to wake up on motion detect (this was actually my preferred setting). Mobiscope, which I purchased and it's the only alternative I've found, requires you to leave everything on. This is not practical for someone who is not going to use a dedicated system like me. By non dedicated I mean I use the webcams in my computer at home and in my office for surveillance, not any professional equipment. I think those of us who are bold, storm and 89XX users should write to their support team so they see a demand and repackage the software to work on our devices. Let's take the initiative and write them. I know I’ll be doing that right after this post.

Hi there,
I am a newbie to Blackberry (I have the "world") and I have a question about live-stream cam.

What I am looking to do specifically is to be able to watch my barn cam on my blackberry. I was told that I may have to upgrade to the storm to do this. I am willing to do - if it will work.

My barn cam is hosted by MARESTARE.com which is a live streaming service.

Can someone help me with this?

Thanks tons!

I used the credentials I created on their website (free account).

Any idea?

Is your firewall ON or OFF?

The only way that I can get LiveStream to work with my pearl is to have the firewall ON and give it full security permissions (All ALLOW)

I have come upon a great live-webcam software product that allows you to view AND HEAR your webcam from your cellphone. It is called "LiveStream" and it's awesome.

I found the program on Getjar.com and converted the files to work with blackberries and packaged it for storage. Then I thought, why not share this with everyone. So I then re-packaged it for distribution and uploaded it to Mediafire.

It is located here: Livestream.zip

The zipfile contains the files you need to install the application on your blackberry via Desktop manager, And it also contains the software you need to have on the computer to interface with your webcam.

After installing the software on your blackberry and your computer/laptop you will have to go to the website LiveStream - expanding mobility and register.

After registering, you can then start the software on your computer and select your webcam (Or if you only have one it will select it for you).

Then fire up the software on your blackberry and enter the email address and password that you used to register with. The blackberry software will list all of the available cameras (That are public and listed. Mine is in there too... )

*You also have the option of entering your registration/login info on the website and viewing your webcam from there.*

Select your camera from the list and VIOLA...live webcam feed direct to your blackberry.
You can select to capture the video and audio to a location on your computer if you want to keep the feed.
You can also enable and disable streaming audio from your phone or computer.

And the best thing... ITS FREE!!!

I followed your instruction all the way (downloading, installing, registering, open here and there) on my PC when I click the start button it tells me to either mark my camera as public or go to the website and pay for it. I did mark it as public and guess what? Still telling me it's a prepaid s..t.
Have I missed anything?

Well, I don't know what to tell you.
You must have selected a bandwidth/pipe speed that is not allowable for the free version or chosen some other modification that requires payment.
There are many other users of the service on here that can testify that payment is not a requirement.

Go back to your account settings (On the website) and make sure you pick the lowest options for all possibilities. That is the only way to receive the free service.

My advice would be to set everything up on the website before even turning on the downloaded Blackberry App.
If you can operate your camera from the website, then you know that everything is setup properly for you to access the service on your berry.

When i go to log in from my Bold, it says server inaccessable....hmmmmm... And I cant seem to find my cam on my PC when i log into my account.. Any suggestions?

[xTheTinManx]

Any bold users get this to work?? I'm having no luck.. Will delete the app for now.. bummed...

I upgraded to the premium service thinking the quality would be better and it would buffer less. That was not the case. I also keep getting, "Uncaught exception: Application livestream(138) is not responding; process terminated" on my 8330.

ANy ideas on how to not get that error anymore? Thanks!
