TCPMP problem
I use the TCPMP app to play AVI files with no problems. I downloaded a podcast (MP4) but TCPMP says that this codec was removed. Tried with the WM player and it also does not read the format. I can convert the MP4 files to AVI format but it's a pain to do so.
Does anyone know how to put the codec back into TCPMP?

you could try the retail version of TCPMP... COREPLAYER.
It is still under development, even if it's already available to consumers, so the features aren't complete yet compared to TCPMP...
If you still want to use TCPMP, I would suggest looking for the AVC plugin for it...
The filename I think is AVC.plg. Don't know where to find it though...

The codec was removed because of license issues, you can download it from certain sites and put it back, but it's against the law to do so.

I'm using Sompy MovieEncoder it's work pretty good and it's free. It's compress 750 mb video file to about 150 mb. You can get it from download.com under mobile section

AVI Playback

Hi!
I m trying to get my TTYN II to playback avi files but cant seem to make it happen... I've tried downloading the Core player but that gives an error saying it doest have the MPEG-4 codec? Where do I get the codec's from?
Thanks,
Neil

it shouldnt ask for mp4 codec if you are playing an avi file. different formats. did you download the latest version of core player? make sure you get the one for pocket pc and the latest version is 0.72RC1. avi works fine for me.

AVI is just a file format, it has nothing to do with the codec. So there can be MPEG4 AVIs. Actually most are (DivX and Xvid are MPEG4). MPEG4 videos don't necessarily have the .mp4 extension.
Don't know how to install the codec though, don't have a Kaiser yet lol.

If you installed the core player (http://www.coreplayer.com/) then you should be able to play avi files. What version are you using ?
Try to uninstall and reinstall it and try again.

I'll be watching for responses as I'm also wanting to play MPEG 4 files (with avi extensions - from ATI's Multimedia Centre Software on my desktop PC) on my TyTN II. I'd prefer just to use a codec to provide this functionality in the built in version of pocket media player (what I currently use for wmv files).

Many thanks!
Thank you for that format expansion cab link texarcana, and it's free too. Will try it out on Cristmas day if I have the time.
[Edit] Alas it didn't allow playing of my ATI Multimedia Centre produced mp4 AVI files - back to wmv for me.

So does this work any better than TCPMP at playing back mp4 files?

Better ? Prolly not.
But instead of installing another player, you just add some codecs with it instead.
Anyway, my personal favourite is the core mobile player (which isnt free)

While I still haven't published the "full" Multimedia Bible, the H.264 Bible at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=The H.264 (a.k.a. MPEG-4 Part 10 and AVC) Bible (in the Wiki) explains a LOT of these issues (what MP4 files are, what they can contain, what players and what codec packs are needed to play them etc)

Ive been using Pocket DivX Player 0.8 and it play7s avi files perfectly

its not bad for freeware

good video converter?

I'm looking a good video converter that compresses my movies so i can put them on my Tilt. Most movies i have are around 700MB and i need to get them compressed, without killing the video quality. Any help would be great, thanks.

What bitrate and codec are you using? I encode my videos at 320x240 using 1000kb DivX, and 2 hour movies come out around 400MB.

Also i can't use .avi, must be MPEG format after conversion. but my bitrate is 1000 and 320x240 is the size. Im going from .avi to .mpg

Your right... it does lol. Sorry, for some reason they were opening in WMP so i figured they didn't work in TCPMP.

Not a problem I used TCPMP for a while before I swapped over to coreplayer. Glad I could help

I use Pocket Divx encoder - It works great - Reduces the size to fit my screen, Avg video is 300 mb instead of 700 mb but you can still play with the quality to increase quality (Which increases file size) or reduce quality (to reduce file size). You can choose to play with video or audio qualities. I like to max out these settings as I like a crystal Clear picture on my screen with nice clear sound when I play through my car stereo.
Pocket Divx encoder is free - Just google it and try it for yourself.

I'll try that... also i should point out that if you use the D3D drivers, the videos play great. And to even make them near-perfect, put the frame rate at 15 instead of 25 or whatever. Then its near perfect for me.

SUPER is perfectly capable of enconding any flavour of mpeg (2,3,4 you name it...)

For every conversion I use Mediacoder. Whether it's for my Kaiser, PSP, an iPod, .or just for converting vids or music, this is my choice.
It's not really user-friendly and you will have to know what you're doing (since it lacks a good wizard IMHO). But once you master this program, the options are pratically unlimited.
Best of all, it's free!

I've used almost all the converters already listed here. But for me, the best one is still Xvid4PSP.
Originally used for the PSP, it has several presets built-in but you can use advanced settings also.
Very easy to use, and does a good job.
Give it a try:

Get Video Off Of The Tilt!!!!

Ok. I recorded some video on my AT&T Tilt with a memory card. It plays fine on my phone. Well I want to get it on my computer. When I tried to, it was in the MP4 format. So I opened it with Quicktime and iTunes and it wouldn't play. It said there was an error. So I was gonna convert it. I tried to, but it gave me a warning saying that it would have no sound, so I didn't do that. Then I downloaded VLC Player and when I played the videos, they didn't have sound. I tried putting them in Windows Media Center, didn't work. I tried ActiveSync. Didn't work. There has to be some possible way to do this. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!

Same thing happens to me. Now I just record in the other format, QIF I believe. And that works fine.

THANKYOU!!!!!!!!!!

how did you even get "good" video playback?
how did you even get "good" video on the TILT? is it the change in file type that makes the video better in itself? where do you change it?

You can change to CIF by selecting it from the Capture Settings menu (hit menu when the camera is running) under Resolution. The capture format can be changed from MPEG-4 to H.263 if you go to Advanced > Capture Format.
Recording in a well-lit environment helps. I'm not usually affected by placebo, but I and a few other users have reported increased camera performance after installing the latest test drivers for the Kaiser from htcclassaction.org. It DID seem that the framerate was higher. I can't rule out the possibility that updating to windows mobile 6.1 may have made a difference, but I know I don't keep apps running in the background and the comparison whilst not scientific would be pretty fair.

What can be used to view H.263 on the home pc? Will media player play it? And is there a good reason why it just doesn't record to .wmv or regular old mpeg? As you can tell I am a moron when it comes to video.

VLC will read it

QuickTime will play H.263 encoded files.
The Tilt does not use WMV or MPEG because they do not have formats optimized for mobile devices, so the files end up being huge.

Thanks, that makes sense!

my mp4 videos run fine on wm player! try downloading the vista or xp codec pack which is available on most torrent sites

I know its old but anyway...I record video w/ my kaiser, bluetooth the video over to my laptop, convert with WM convert, open w/ movie maker, edit then post. Sooooooooo easy and no cables required!

You're all going through waaaay to much by using converters & what not. When recording in mpeg4 format just rename the files to ".3gp" after you transfer them to your computer and they will play regularly through quicktime with sound & everything intact.

download K lite codec pack: http://www.free-codecs.com/download/K_lite_codec_pack.htm
it will allow windows media player to play ANYTHING, throw and file at it and it will play

VLC Works for me
VLC works for me, try it

Use a converter to be able to edit the video in windows movie maker, it takes like 10 seconds to convert a MPEG4 to WMV. (i've got the codec pack but in order to edit the video you need to convert it.)

FLV Player

Hi guy's im looking for a FLV player, or better yet a FLV to mp4 converter for my kaiser. I could just as easily convert the flv files on my pc, but im using you tube play and from time to time i find myself downloading the videos as flv's, i cant blue tooth these files to anyone else because of the file format, but having a converter on my kaiser to convert the files there on the spot would be great and then i could just play them in windows media player and share them easily,i had tried using TCMP and installed the plugins all of them, and still no go with getting them to play, they can play fine in you tube player but you cant forward or go back just pause and play and of course stop, im sure this has quite possibly been asked lots of time's but i cant find the answer. so any help would be greatly appreciated

FLV player
I have the same problem, can't play .flv videos.
Any solutions? Thanks!
Kaiser WM6.5 Shifu 4.2

FLV Player...
Core Player can handle most of the *.flv files , but there is a *flv files with different codec which it can`t... I don`t remember the codec name though...

roko
thanks

I think Youtubeplay also allows you to search videos in a nice friendly Windows Mobile application and then play the full FLV video ( not miniscule MPEG4 versions ) with its own player. This application is written in the mix. net and C so you need a runtime. net, v2. Overlay video player hacked out of TCPMP and FLV part is based on FFMPEG

i have a solution
convert the video by any video converter to flv or mpeg but you have to select the right video size ( 320 x 240 )
