Hi,
I have a N900 with CSSU and Kernel Power installed.

Since I do not use the phone anymore and I hate wasting I started to look for ways to use it as a webcam.
Currently I use a really crapy old digital camera.

So I installed PhoneStreamer.
First thing I noticed is that on

the interface looks totaly different than the one in this post and on my phone:

My desktop is a Mint 17 Linux.
I use Wlan on the phone (didnt get the USB Network connection working. Way to many steps and not easy to understand) which is coming from a Fritzbox router.
I can ping the phones ip from my desktop.

When I setup VLC as described under the (i) button inside of phonestreamer I get an error message (not possible to open).

What am I doing wrong and how come the interface looks different?

THX!
