Sony Ericsson V600 Cell Phone User Manual


 
White Paper V600
28 August 2005
The use of SMIL in a product allows the user to cre-
ate and transmit PowerPoint-style presentations on
the mobile device. Using a media editor, users can
incorporate text, audio, images, video clips and
animations to assemble full multimedia presenta-
tions. Apart from the media editor in the phone,
multimedia presentations can be created in a
media editor on a computer by using MMS Home
Studio that can be found on the CD that comes
with the phone. The user can decide in which order
the image and text will be displayed, as well as for
how long the images and text lines are to be shown
on the display.
Media types
There are certain media formats that support con-
tinuous media (speech, audio and video). The fol-
lowing media types are supported for SMIL:
AMR narrow band speech codec MIME media
type
MPEG-4 AAC audio codec MIME media type
MPEG-4 video codec MIME media type
H.263 video codec MIME media type
The media types for JPEG and GIF can be used
both in the 'content-type' field in HTTP and in the
“type” attribute in SMIL 2.0. The following media
types are to be used:
JPEG MIME media type
GIF MIME media type
All these media are pointed out by MIME (Multipur-
pose Internet Mail Extensions) types.
Messaging
Messenger
The Messenger function offers more options when
messaging. It is easy to create a list of favourite
contacts from the Messenger server. It is possible
to see which contacts are online and what mood
they are in. To see contacts online, users have to
be connected to the Messenger server. It is also
possible to send and receive instant messages and
join community chats.
Log in to the Messenger server
Users can select to log in to their Messenger server
each time they want to send or receive instant
messages, or they can be logged in automatically
when they turn on their phone.
List of contacts
It is easy to create a list of contacts - people to
send messages to on a regular basis. It is possible
to add names from the Messenger server. You can
also create nicknames for the contacts in a list that
are connected to the Messenger server.
Status
Users can view the status of their contacts and
choose to show their own status to others. They
can also change their own status.
Chatroom
A chatroom can be started by a service provider or
by an individual Messenger user. Chatrooms can
be saved either by saving a chat invitation or by
searching for a specific chatroom.
Strangers
A stranger is someone that is not in the list of con-
tacts. An icon indicates a message from a stranger.
Users can add a stranger to their list of contacts, or
block a stranger. If they do not perform any actions,
strangers disappear when the user logs out from
the Messenger server.
