You need to be more specific. What is your question? Are you asking which phone you should use? Or are you asking which software you should use? Or something else?

Hello,

My requirement is to do video streaming on symbian S60 2nd and 3rd edition devices.

I am not getting how to aproach the above mentioned task.

I tryed in this way but did not get success::icon13:

1. I tryed to use OpenDesL API which is in CVideoRecorderUtility class but it is failing with error -5(KErrNotSupported) in MvruoOpenComplete callback function.

2. I am using OpenFileL function only and started recording by using PrepareVideoCaptureL and StartVideoCapture API provided by SDK and trying to capture the raw data in FrameBufferReady() call back function but there also i am able to capture some raw data for some amount of time but devices is restarting after some time before stoppping the recording.

so, Now my questions are :
1. whether i can capture raw data by using FrameBufferReady() callback function.
2. If i capture the rawdata also it is YUV format, how to encode YUV format into .3gp using symbian API's?

I am newbie to symbian please help me in guiding me to right path in the direction i achieve the requirment.

Thanks & Regards,
Muralidhar.
