Orb On TP2

**deadwrong03** · #1 (**permalink**) 11-19-2009, 10:50 AM

Is there a way to get the mobile version of the orb to display on the tp2? when i go to mycast.orb.com displays like it does on the desktop and loads somewhat slow. is there a specific url to the mobile website of orb?

i tested it on a tp1 yesterday and it loads the mobile version of the site by default

Which browser are you using? (IE or Opera)

Have you upgraded your ROM and to which?

This was also a problem I encountered when I first tried using Orb in Opera Mobile. I don't recall how I came about understanding this but try using this link in your Opera browser. It should take you to a login page (if not already logged in) or to your media in a format that is mobile browser friendly (not necessarily thumb friendly).

Good luck!

How is the video playback from Orb? Mine is really choppy.

Either use Internet Explorer, or open mycast.orb.com in opera and go to settings on the page. Click on Mobile view and you are set.

does video stream in full screen mode of windows media player, or can coreplayer be used?

Video can stream in Coreplayer. You just have to go into the Preferences->File Associations tab and make sure whichever type of file you have Orb set to stream in the Streaming options (ie: WMV stream, RAM stream, Winamp, etc.) is associated with Coreplayer.
