DROIDCAMX mobile phone as a computer camera method

First, Software Installation

1. The documents that need to be used have all been sorted out, so the download comes back with a compressed package containing the following three files:

2. First install the mobile phone end--ha-20110427-droidcamx.wireless.webcam.pro.1.4.2._gca.apk,apk Installation process We are already familiar with, not to say more.

3. Install PC side again, open Droidcamx1.4.2.rar, run the droid Cam-3.2.exe directly.

4. Click Next to complete the installation. The default installation directory is the C:Program files Droidcam (32-bit system) or C:Program files (x86) Droidcam (64-bit system), in order to use more convenient, the "computer-side DroidCamApp.exe Chinese-covered. zip" DroidCamApp.exe overwrites the file under the installation directory with the same name, the software interface becomes Chinese.

So far, all the installation work is done. You can create a desktop shortcut for DroidCamApp.exe because it is the main program for the Droidcam client.

Second, WiFi wireless camera

1. When the wireless camera to use is the simplest, first open the phone wifi and connected to the no line by, and then start DROIDCAMX on the phone, see the following screen. Display ip:192.168.1.102 port: 4747.

2. Restart the PC end, connect the way to choose Wifi/lan, and then the mobile IP and Droidcam port to fill in the mobile phone interface can see.

3. Click Connect, the phone is now the screen has become a camera display screen. The screen on the phone may be the opposite, it doesn't matter, just ignore it. This interface has three buttons, the top right is AF, the middle is the brightness energy-saving switch, below is exit.

4. Although the mobile interface display is about the opposite, but in the computer display is normal, if some users still not normal can be checked pc side of the "Mirror network video." To use the camera, select the Droidcam in the video device, QQ, Skype, and so on all kinds of software need to use the camera is perfectly compatible.

This is done by way of WiFi wireless camera.

Three, USB camera

This is a small series of recommended way, fast, and while using one side of the charge, do not worry about mobile phone power is used up for a short time. Using a USB connection to be a little bit more cumbersome, first do a little preparation: Download the ADB client and drive, unzip the inside of the Adb.exe and AdbWinApi.dll two files (search your computer, generally with the Android phone on the computer have this thing) put on the system disk windows/ The System32 folder is OK.

In order to facilitate later use, the establishment of a bat file, the contents of the ADB forward tcp:4747 tcp:4747.

First run the mobile phone end. Then run the bat file on the PC once, then run the Droidcam client, select the connection mode for "ADB (by USB)" and click Conect. If you do not run the bat or the set port is inconsistent with the bat, you will be prompted with an error.

After successful connection, the interface is the same as WiFi connection, no more introduction.

This USB camera approach is complete.

Four, Bluetooth camera

This is the most recommended use of small series, limited by the speed of Bluetooth, the actual effect of Bluetooth camera can not make people satisfied. However, small knitting here or introduce.

1. The first is to pair with the PC via Bluetooth (the computer must have Bluetooth function). Turn on the mobile phone Bluetooth, and set it to be detectable, and then choose to add the device on the PC to automatically search the phone.

2. The Bluetooth device can be seen in the device and printer after the addition is successful.

3. Bluetooth connection mode of operation is different, first start the PC end, connect the way to choose "Bluetooth", and then click Prepare, so that the computer side of the preparation of the work done.

4. Start the phone to click on the lower right side of the Bluetooth icon Connect, and then in the Bluetooth device to choose a good pair of your own PC name can be.

5. Wait a while (more than 10 times times more than WiFi and USB connections), you can connect successfully, or the interface.

Through the QQ video chat direct test, in the Bluetooth mode video cotton very serious, completely not fluent, so again recommended not to use this method.

Five, software settings

Because this software is always using the camera, so the setup provides some basic energy saving settings, such as automatic dimming, black background. In addition, keep your phone awake so you can prevent some phones from sleeping when WiFi is automatically disconnected and the software can not continue to use.

The front and rear cameras can be switched, and the connection ports can be modified to other. Friendly reminder, if you modify the port number, the PC client will also make the corresponding changes, using the bat in the USB connection command contains the same port number to be modified.

In addition to the above, the video format also provides three styles to choose from, video resolution can also be adjusted.

The video resolution is rich, the highest 720x480 to the lowest 240x160, the higher the resolution effect natural better.

Also mention is that in addition to supporting the camera, it can also be a microphone, on the PC on the client to check the Enable audio can be selected.

Mobile phone when the function of computer camera, in fact, in the S60 and WM era has the corresponding software to achieve, but the previous effect is not comparable to the traditional camera. DROIDCAMX gives us hope, support high resolution, support a variety of ways, in the use of WiFi and USB connection when the transmission image is very smooth, the practicality is beyond doubt.
