Windows Media Problem - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading

Guyz yesterday i installed Smartmovie with CoreMP4 codecs..since than i cant hear sound when i play any thing through WMP..but when i use GSplayer i can hear without any problems...wat could be the reaseon....
ps :- ive also uninstalled the Codec (not smartmovie)

I think the file you have installed overwrites the codec of the wmp and wmp do not recognizes the codec... just my opinion...

thats what i think so...thats y i un-installed the codec..but still..

Either the codec uninstall didn't reset codecs settings to default or Smartmovie itself is the culprit. You can try by first uninstalling Smartmovie, if that doesn't bring WMP back to life you'll have to find a WMP cab or create one from the kitchen. Never tried something like that myself, still strugling on cooking my first ROM (WM6 Dutch), but I believe it should be possible.

last night i remoced Smartmovie and without even resetting..the WMP was working againi...

Does anybody has problems with WMP 10?

Hi, let me ask you guys a question. Does anybody of you guys that have upgraded it to Windows Media Player 10, have any problems running it?. I been having problems when I open certain files, specially WMV and MP3, I though it was maybe a corrupt codec or something, but I recently did a fresh install of the Windows Media Edition 2005 on my laptop, and its been doing the same thing. It sucks cause I can't use the media player as I would want too. the files even play on my MDAII but the player crashes on my PC when I play these files!. I tried to find the solution, but I don't really know what's doing that, I even tried to run the Kazaa lite Mega codec pack, to see if it was a missing codec or something, same thing. Anybody has the same problems?, and/or have any solutions?

No problems so far Bro as a matter of fact I use WMP for loads of medias even DivX for example without having to install any third party codecs.
My guess is as good as yours - reinstall WMP10.
wmp 10 seems to have just ****ed my comp over all together!
Yo Yorch,
did u manage to fix your problem with wmp10?? because i got the same thing happening to mine..
Sounds like you either have a corrupted module in your graphics card drivers, your DirectX installation is a little screwy (Windows Media Player will try and use both to hardware-accelerate video decoding), or your Windows Media installation has gone a little screwy.
Either or. Maybe all three. I hate WMP10, I've so far avoided using it on my PC and I'm sticking with WMP9 for the time being - I still use Media Player 6.4 for all my proper video watching though
If you're having problems with codecs, it sounds actually like there could be a problem with your codec store too. You shouldn't use those codec packs, they clutter up your PC with WAY too many useless codecs, they install so many different filters and third party decoders your machine WILL (and does) slow down from parsing them all, adding their entries into the registry, loading them, registering them... Zzz. Best to keep your installations to a minimum, and use something like VLC - which uses the opensource ffmpeg and other free, opensource decoding classes to decode pretty much anything that's thrown at it. http://videolan.org to download that (it's a totally brilliant piece of software if all else fails, at least as a temporary workaround until you get your WMP problem fixed).
Of course, you still have Media Player Classic as another option too, google for that one.

utak3r can you help? WMP stuttering

I have upgraded to WM6 (C_ShekharAKU7.0b.R40.P24_public) from 2003, and I’m blown away. The main reason I use my XDA (Himalaya) is for watching movies as I travel a lot. My movies are converted to a WMV file.
The problem I have is that when playing the movie, the video stutters and the audio plays a few seconds’ ahead i.e. sync probs. Any ideas? I don’t want to go back to 2003.
Thanks
Hi there,
I can't help with the problem but I can confirm that I have the identical problem
*Upgraded from 2003SE
*Movies are converted to WMV
*Video stutters and audio is a few seconds ahead.
I've done a few tests to try determine what the issue might be but no luck.
*Tried testing testing at many different audio and video rates down to the lowest possible rates (60kbps and so on)
*Tried closing all other programs that were open using task manager
*Tried moving the file from my SD card onto the Himalaya (suspecting the SD was not able to be read fast enough). This WORKED for the first replay, but went back to its normal stuttering directly after.
I've been trying to recreate that ONE time when it worked, but with no luck.
I can confirm that between the working time and non-working time, I didn't install anything, and I doubt I changed any settings, though can't be sure.
Anyway, maybe you can try a few of the things that I did. In your case, it may work.
Use TCPMP to play all your movie file.
If there are problems, convert your file to any format rather than WMV. ex, MP4.
I use TCPMP to play a whole movie.
If your movie file is a DVD, convert it using Nero Recode...
Hope this helps!
As for playing movies... TCPMP and all is done You can download plugins for quite a number of various movie formats
And as for recoding... I recommend PocketPC DivX Encoder, aided with MediaCoder.
Check
Guys
I also had this problem where the whole device's sound was stuttering. Even when the phone rings.
I could not use media player because of this.
I reflashed my ROM and did not install the WM6 sound fix............
Since then i did not have this problem again.
My sound is perfect!! Try it out!!
Cheers
installed TCPMP all fine. Best version ever.
GB Softweak
HI guys
I have located this problem.
I tried to install GB softweak...for the gprs disconnection. After i enabled it, my device's sound started stuttering.
It was exactly what it did when i first posted this problem.
I uninstalled GB softweak...................the sound is back to normal, and no stuttering.
Hope it helps!

Video playback error?

Hi there. I installed the TF3D as a panel which has fixed the crashing problem. Also installed some HD Touch addons like volume bar, keyboard. Everything works fine until i created a video using the X1 camera. Tried to play it back and windows media player says it cannot play the file, and that it maybe currupted. The preinstalled videos like the 007 trailor (mines a UK voda X1) doesn't work also.
Resetted everything, the videos started to work again. Installed TF3D and other addons, and again videos don't work. Anyone else have this problem? Avi files work fine, just 3gp and mp4 ones don't? Incidentally, my omnia had the same problem when i installed TF2D manilla. Any help grately appreciated.

Gonna try the patch zenkinz thanks for the reply will let you know how It works out.
Did try it and it does not work for me.
I did some extensive searching on the forum but the only thing that seems to be the solution is a hard reset.
"you need to have clean X1i w/o previous installation of Youtube to work."
I'm guessing this also goes for "repairing" the MP4/3G Playback?
Can't play 3gp and MP4 videos anymore using Windows Media on my Xperia WM6. It had been working fine for months but yesterday it just stopped playing these files. WMV works fine and so does the 3gp and MP4 videos if played on any other player. There must be a solution other than a hard reset!!! Is there a way to reinstall Windows media or perhaps someone can send me the exe and any other files that make windows media work on WM6.
Thanks
It seems like a ROM issue to me, but pasha's situation seems to beg to differ. Any programs you install recently?

No... none ... although i do test a lot of different applications and games. But i don't recall installing anything in particular during the time this problem appeared. I did change the image files in the Sony Ericsson Xperia panel but i dont think it should effect WMP. Interestingly i noticed that i am able to play MP4 and 3gp files using WMP if they are in the WMP videos library list. However can't play them if i select them directly from any file explorer.

WMP doesn't run anymore .3gp or .mp4

Hi, I’m writting to you from Brazil.
I’ve got a TyTN II with WM 6.1 Pro and Windows Media Player Mobile doesn’t play anymore .3gp or .mp4. I can record, but not view it with WMP. It seems a missing codec : " No combination of intermediate filters could be found to make the connection”. I can view it with CorePlayer, but there is some apps that always "call" WMP, like HTC Album.
Someone could help me fix WMP ?
Thanks a lot.
I am in the same boat
The same for me. I don't know why. I tried to install an another version of Windows Media but stil the same. It's annoying when I try to run a video from HTC album. "The filter source could not be loaded". One week I'm on this, I'm bored !
If someone has any information. Thanks.
Hi,
My problems start when I did a registry cleanup with Pocket Mechanic. I could do some file associations with Resco Explorer, but I only fixed the mess with a hard reset. Sorry!!! It seems to be a missing codec, but I think the problem is in the registry.
Same problem
I just noticed it gives me the same message when I try to run videos. I also used Pocket Mechanic to clean the registry.
Any fixes on this?

Touch pro TCPMP media player

I recently just bought a touch pro sprint phone. I installed .NetCF 3.5 and then installed Advanced Config. I proceded to change,Change file system cache to 8MB,Change file system filter cache to 131072,Change Glyph cache to 32KB. That was the only tweak I have done. Besides that I put google maps cab and torch button cab on there.
For the most part its pretty much stock the way it came. I was wondering about a different media player. I havnt used the media player that came on my phone much but everyone on the net claims it sucks and says TCPMP is best..is it? OR is there a better media player?? And is it worth changing to a new media layer?? If anyone has any tips let me know..I want to make this phone as cool as I can but there is a lot of apps I dont feel I need.
Let me know
Thanks
In as few words as possible, yes, it's better. TCPMP is capable of many more formats, for one thing. It has better playlist support, for another. Frankly, the HTC audio manager is a better music player than WMP, and I hate them both (I'm a staunch MortPlayer supporter for music playback). For video, I have tried many, but I've only been happy with TCPMP. I'm usually NOT a big fan of uni-task software, but MortPlayer and TCPMP are the total cream of the crop in music and video playback on portable devices. Their price only serves to make them more desirable.
One word of warning: if you start flashing home-cooked ROMs, and it seems almost everyone on XDA does, at some point, check to see if the cook has included it. Many who do not include TCPMP have jibed their ROM so much that it doesn't work with TCPMP, no matter what you try.
TCPMP is better than WMP on the Touch Pro, as it supports many more formats. It's what I use. I'm currently using NRG's EnergyRom 3.0 (I believe there's a CDMA version of it for you Sprint users), which has TCPMP included, along with latest versions of Google Maps, .NET CF, AdvConfig, and other utilities. I would definitely recommend flashing that badboy with a custom rom- you'll notice a huge difference.
Btw, don't listen to the over-blown performance claims of those touting CorePlayer- their QTV driver doesn't work worth a damn on our devices. I've tried it on my Fuze- trust me, it's not worth the money.

That’s not completely true. The best results will depend on which format you are trying to play. For example, WMV plays best on windows media player and AVI plays best on the Core player. Core player works great if you have the correct settings. You’re best “free” option is TCPMP.
Search for this version:TCPMP-0.72RC1-ARM-PPC-recomp-03.CAB
Tried them all and TCPMP has it's uses. If you are going to encode movies to watch on your device put them in m4v and TCPMP is pretty darn good.
When it comes to music playback though I will have to disagree with the above posts. I have tried them all as well and the absolute best in my opinion is Nitrogen. Simply awesome.
It's best for video. Music will be up to your preferences. I use WMP for Today Screen and Voice command integration
What advantages does updating rom do for phone? NRG's EnergyRom 3.0..is this the rom I should use??And what is this sprint CDMA version?Is it a rom?
and do I need to back up before deciding to upgrade to this cdma version? Sorry for all the questions,you guys are awesome.how do I tell what ROM i
have on my phone as of right now?
And!!! I just installed skyfire..should I be deleting enternet explorer off my phone if I only use skyfire now?? And If I get the tcpmp should I delete windows media player??
Thanks

WMP and IE are considered system files. Good luck deleting them without crippling something. Just ignore them and/or delete the shortcuts from the programs menu.
As for the rest of the advice, if you don't know the difference between CDMA and GSM, and don't know which one your phone is, I would forget about flashing my phone, until I knew it like the back of my hand, if I were you, unless you want to turn your shiny, expensive phone into a shiny, expensive brick.
Hint: you have a CDMA phone, which means a ROM written for GSM will completely and irreversibly disable your phone.
Yeah, there's no deleting PIE or WMP (you can try, but you will fail, lol). You're going to have to cook your own rom, and figure out how to remove them without screwing a bunch of other things up. They still come in handy from time to time. I'm not sure how well ringtones work without wmp-I guess another media player can handle them. PIE is good for downloading off of rapidshare or other sites where there's a countdown. It's also good for logging into free wifi networks. The HTC Streaming Video works well with it, too.
Before you delete any built in apps, download and play this video clip (15 MB)
http://rapidshare.com/files/268091340/Comedy_Central_Stand-Up_Erin_Foley.mp4
It is a podcast video from Comedy Central. I did not encode it. It is MP4 and I might have renamed the .m4v extension to .mp4 (can't remember). the resolution is 600x400 (or so) with a decent bitrate.
TCPMP won't play it
Coreplayer won't play it/
Windows Media Player will play it
HTC Album will play it
TCPMP and Coreplayer are software-only renderers. WMP and HTC album use hardware acceleration built into the Qualcomm chipset.
It seems that only MP4 (m4v) formats have native h/w support on Raphael. I don't know if .wmv is also supported.
I also use TCPMP and Coreplayer (own it). Each has pluses and minuses.
