I need to transmit a video signal through dirt anyone have any thoughts?

I'd transmitt it via FO cable, in the dirt.

I've seen this done for a senior project and it worked out well. You could build a remote controlled device (car, airplane, robot, etc) connect to it through a WIFI signal. You’ll need a control board as well as a WIFI receiver (I suggest WIFI because it’s an easy signal to ramp up over a large area). Then control the device using say a web interface then it would be easy to control from say a PDA. If you’re really ambitious you could also write a mini phone application and use it call into your server station (you'll need a receiver app or module for that) to control the device by phone. \nAlso consider \nStreaming video with this\nAlso if you use phone, make sure you have enough throughput on the line.\nAlso ensure that whatever connection you decide to use has very little lag, you may have to make up for such short comings in your code \nGood Luck and have fun

Swap the cable with a known good cable. Or you could use a cable tester. \nhttp://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rls=RNWK,RNWK:2005-50,RNWK:en&q=cable+tester

Other people are probably downloading video and using all the bandwidth. Try repositioning the antennas.

Go through your cable company or get a wireless NIC and borrow a neighbors connection.

I think they sell a device for that at compUSA. Ask for assistance from an employee. They should be able to help you out.

To boost the signal of your wireless router I would recommend buying a suitable enhanced antenna from your local computer store. They are designed to work with your router. There are also signal boosting devices that can be used throughout your home/office to help increase your signal coverage and wipe out dead spots.\n\nAs for the Sat dish; if you want to be Dr. Frankenstein and experiment you can go to your local Radio Shack and get the proper adapters to convert the connection from one to the other. Not sure if they will have the proper adapter for the router though. You may have to improvise. Will you succeed? I am very doubtful. Sat dishes are used to RECEIVE SIGNALS, not TRANSMIT! You may get better luck just using the coax cable used with the dish. But then again, stranger things have happened...

you should be fine with that kind of signal... make sure the laptop network settings is set to dhcp, also make sure you do not have an access control list setup on the wireless (like only certain MAC addresses can connect)\nIt does not have to be matching equipment though it usually works better that way. And when trying to boost the signal you normally put an amplifier on the access point and a higher gain antenna on the wireless card

Were the pipes replaced all the way into your house or basement? If so, there's a remote possibility that any components grounded to a plumbing pipe may now not be sufficiently grounded. \nIs the picture poor with an aux input (VCR, DVD,etc.)?\nI would look for other reasons first - coax, connections, input source and so on. It's unlikely the PVC is a concern.

you need software to broadcast the video or snapshots to a ftp account or ip address port. one is http://logisphere.seiz.ch/en/index_html but there are others if you do a search.

This is interesting.  One could use sound, assuming speed and picture size is not important.  Spelunkers are using super low frequencies to talk, and that means you could encode a video signal on top of that, but again it will be slow going even for a small picture.\nYou could use gravity waves.  Just get a small bit of antimatter and modify it's oscillations inside a magnetic containment fields.  That would work the best!  ;)

Download Realvnc.Andthen install it on the remote PC.Better chat to nme on my yahoo id hostonplanet

I think you need the right software.  I use Roxio Videowave.

Go to www.videohelp.com they will have several listed, along with the directions to use them.

Nullsoft Shoutcast is the standard, I guess you could make a module that plays a shoutcast stream with flash or perl.

yes switching to broadband will most probably fix your problem, however that is not the only option. If your modem is slower than 56k then I recommend upgrading one. Some service providers are faster than others so you might want to research which companies are good in ur area. Another thing that might help is if there is an option for viewing the video for a lower bandwidth, or smaller resolution, that could speed things up as well.

youll need a device, variously called a media player, which acts like a pipe between your wireless network and your tv.\nsee the following link for a page full of these devices sold by tigerdirect:\nhttp://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/category/category_slc.asp?CatId=197&
