Announcing the HAVA Player Mac SDK

[LJW]

It works like a charm on all virtual machines. In order for the initial setup to complete, your Hava must reside on the same subnet, that's why it's important to set the virtual machine's network mode to bridged, otherwise the setup program won't be able to locate it.
Once you have a properly configured Hava box, it can be accessed from the virtual machine regardless of the networking mode: you will get the MPEG2 stream when running bridged, and the MPEG4 stream in NAT mode.
One really nice benefit of Hava's pick of standard protocols: you can get to the Hava's stream with standard clients. For instance, if your local Hava box is at 192.168.1.10, just do a File/Open URL... of http://192.168.1.10 in QuickTime Player and bingo! video stream.
The one thing we really need is a simple way to access the remote control; I guess all the streaming business already comes for free with QuickTime.

Would that be the remote stream?

You can use rtsp in QuickTime to stream directly from the device, the problem I found was you are limited to a 320x240 stream. It does work however and can at least let you view video on your mac and will stream to other apple portable devices as well but it isn't usable yet.

Here is my story:
I have a MacBook and I also run WindowsXp using a Virtual Machine (network preference: bridged)
I use the version 1.8 of Hava software for Hava Gold.
1.Remote viewing and local viewing works fine when I am connected to my router through hub-cable. Hava setup software works fine.
2. Remote viewing and local viewing does not work when I am connected to my router without cable (wireless). Have setup software does not work either.
3.Remote viewing works fine from any other place (job, e.t.c.)

What I just want is to watch TV from my sleeping room
Keep on trying guys! I hope that the MAC-player will soon be ready for everybody!

Thank you in advance

[digitalknight]

Any updates on a MAC player

[cosnet]

YES, YES, WE WANT AND NEED A MAC PLAYER!

[cosnet]

also I tried the Quick Time method locally and Quicktime reports an error. So it is not as simple as pointing to the url to see the Hava stream. Can someone tell me what I am missing?

Still Waiting for a Mac client..

[ziadsa]

it seems project for mac IS DEAD ON ARIVAL.
update on this stuff is very slow,
no Support for MAC not even IPHONE which is sold millions of phones over the world not even Google Phones.

guys if you are so slow or have no reason Not updating this stuff or creating new Players.
release the source Codes and for sure some coders will compile something for all the devices.

release the source Codes and for sure some coders will compile something for all the devices.

I don't work here; I'm just another customer. But your "for sure" is actually quite certainly false, because the Mac SDK has been out for a number of months. Yet nobody has taken it up and produced a single working client for the Mac.

As for the iPhone, according to another thread, the Hava iPhone player app was submitted to Apple a couple of weeks ago. So here we all wait again, this time for Apple.

[ziadsa]

I hope iphone will is true.
they should promote it on some websites that it was submited the app for apple aproval like i clarified.com at least it will be a publicity for them too.

We are in 100% agreement on that! I even suggested this publicity right after the mods here told us about the app submission. Obviously Monsoon doesn't care for our suggestions, at least so far.

no Support.....not even IPHONE which is sold millions of phones over the world not even Google Phones.

IPHONE APP is RELEASED..... you can go out and spread the joy around now ok.
