# Features

 * You can enable/disable sound or video streaming

 * The resolution, the bitrate and the framerate of the stream can be configured... Two video encoders are available for the video streaming: H.263 and H.264. For sound streaming AMR and AAC are available.

 * The flash can be controlled remotly !

 * You can choose between the back facing camera and the front facing camera (if your phone has one)

 * Funny sounds can be played on the phone from the HTTP interface ! Awesome isn't it ? :p

 * You can make the phone vibrate remotely

# Requirements

There may be some glitches on some phones. Some resolution, frame rate, bit rate may be supported on some phones and not on other.

# Dear developers

**The streaming stack used in Spydroid is available as a standalone library [here](https://github.com/fyhertz/libstreaming) with its Javadoc and explanations about how it works and how to use it. It is available under the Apache 2.0 license and I no longer maintain it.**
