Nokia Beamer not working for me :o(

[Kyorin]

Has anyone else had any luck with Nokia Beamer - on my X-Box I go to beam.nokia.com and I can see the QR code, but when I view it through Bing on the phone, it identifies the QR code as some kind of message.

I have the Nokia Black update as of a couple of hours ago, and downloaded Beam in the last 20 mins or so.

If anyone has gotten it working, I'd be interested to know.

you have to open the beamer app to capture the QR code, not the bing search app

Still not working, gonna have a play with this later when I have more time. Wouldn't scan the code just now which was odd, earlier today it scanned the code, but I wasn't able to get it to display anything on the screen, it just continued to display the QR code (on the TV this is).

What's the difference between Nokia Beamer and PhotoBeamer (also from Nokia)?

PhotoBeamer is just for images whereas with Beamer you should be able to display much more.

OK. Got Nokia Beamer to work (on my PC, will try X-Box again later), and it is pretty cool, but quite flaky too. Doesn't always want to do anything when pointed at the QR code, and then only seemed to work for about a minute then stopped updating, but interesting and fun nonetheless.
