Face The Task Challenge II – Complete

By - Vaibhav Sharma On 8 November 2008 6 Comments

One more step closer to winning 5 N96 trials for you – Task II is now complete. The difficulty I had was the lack of 3G which would have enabled me to stream content ‘live’, however I had an idea that would not only enable me to show off the N96’s streaming capability via either QIK or Flixwagon but also showcase its TV-out functionality.

The work around in my mind for the lack of 3G problem was simple. I shot the video using the N96 and then played it back on the TV, again via the N96. Since I currently have the good fortune of having two N96’s I used the other to live QIK the stream in order to meet the terms set forth in the challenge. As for what I would stream was a question. That was again answered by my buddy Sartaj Gill, who once again risked all to come up with killer modern day Ninja heroics. See for yourself!

(Note: The above QIK stream is present in order to fulfill the condition set out, however for a better experience – quality vise, check out this video uploaded on Share).
