This program rocks but I can't seem to stream video. It either shows 1 frame every 10 seconds or no video at all...
Did you guys adjust any settings in the program?
What kind of framerate are you getting?
What file format arte your videos in?

Thanks in advance!!!
I am REALLY looking forward to unlocking the potential of this program. :headbang2 :headbang2 :headbang2

Well, I don't have a 5600 but I did try out Orb on my 535. I at least had the best luck when my videos were already in 3GP format (http://www.sprintusers.com/forum/showthread.php?t=61517). Even then, however, I thought the "experience" was pretty bad. Sloooooow.

Wirelessly posted (sanyo 5600: Mozilla/4.0 (MobilePhone MM-5600/US/1.0) NetFront/3.1 MMP/2.0)

update: finally got it to work on my 5600. i had the "favorite media player" set to wmp instead of 3gp. my own idiot fault for messing around too much lol. it works with no problems though. audio quality could be better though

i can stream videos on my 5600 as well as live tv. i can stream mpg,mpeg,divx,avi,3gp files to work. i havent found the codec i need for rm files. i get the sound but no picture. i tried download real alternative and real splitter codeca but havent had luck.
here is a link for a list of codecs. http://support.orb.com/support/index.jsp choose What codec do I need to stream each supported file type in Orb?

if you log on to http://myorb.com on your pc, what speed does it show for your pc upstream speed? i have mediacom and dont get very good upload speeds. my speed is around 250kbps.. another thing to look at is on your phone, what is the speed. i have had best luck (smoothest for my connection with least buffering) around 65k..

this is a FREE service (which is INCREDIBLE as well as AWESOME)... could it be better, yes BUT on the other hand, it could come with a monthly fee of $5-$10 a month also. my videos stream at a decent rate (im sure if i had an ev-do phone) i could get better results. i feel something is better then nothing and for FREE - i cant complain. i stream live tv to my phone(it is about 20 seconds behind the tv show(if i would have the tv on and watch the channel).

if you log into orb on the pc (http://myorb.com) - are you able to stream the videos. if they dont work on that, it wont work on your phone. what types of media are you trying to stream
