I couldnt get tcpmp to work on the xperia... anyone else with this situation?
bR
I think the reason it does not work is because the xperia is not yet available

What was the problem with TCPMP? Which version have you tried? There is a special version for Windows Mobile 6.1, older versions will not work.

Just get the coreplayer. SHell out 25 bucks or 12 quid
same error on my device. (tcpmp 0.81beta)
(i`ve got my german qwertz xperia x1 today.) tcmp suxx.
no stereo speakers, no htd compatibel accelerometer. (no G-sensor htc compatible)
core 1.2.5 works with mp3 + videos on x1.
i`ve tested it already.
but the videos are NOT running smoth like the core player on my htc diamond.
there are a lot of lost frames. we have to wait for a firmware update with updated
drivers.
i hope the HTC XPERIA X1 will got an own forum category on xda-dev`s, with rom developement.
I have the free 0.72RC1 running on my Toshiba G900 that too has 480x800. And this is no problem, running all very smooth. I am waiting for my x1, but I am sure, this TCPMP-version will work as good on the X1.
What one has to do is to try the video settings. On my G900 I use the "GDI" but this is depending on the PPC and can be different on X1.
Even largest .avi are played very smooth.

Sounds more like an issue with Coreplayer rather then the X1 itself. The panels alone use 3d acceleration so the xperia doesnt need any firmware update for drivers. Does Coreplayer pick up the Ati imageon under the Videos tab in preference??
Once it becomes a bit more poplar I'm sure people will post in the CoreCodec forum about tehe issue. I know I will for sure since I bought the app for the Touch Pro and Kaiser.

Sadly, this does not work on my UK X1i. Video frame changes every few seconds and audio is disjointed. I've played around with the settings, to little (if any) effect.

Does anybody have h.264 files playing well on coreplayer or TCPMP?
in fact, i don't really even know what's the difference between the two they have such similar names.
h.264 will open on TCPMP (I installed the h.264 codec), and it shows the first frame, but otherwise video may move one frame the entire clip and audio may play half a second of audio. I tried boosting the buffer settings (what are the optimal settings?) and the video format (no idea which one is for what.
Coreplayer will open it and tell me it doesn't support h.264 when the webpage says it does!! It will play the audio perfectly, but no video at all.
Very confusing.
well, h.264 needs lots of cpu performance.
in fact i've got problem to play h264 videos on my "old " P4 2,3ghz laptop...
so i dont know if its possible to run it on the X1
good!

most Sony Ericsson games are Java based, so will run with the Diamond's built in Java software (Emersec (cant spell)).
They will run in the original resolution, so will look small, and will be relying on the number input as per the original Sony phone.
One good game i have found which runs well is 'Micro Quad', good racing game controls are on-screen.
Are you sure Emersec is built in? I haven't been able to play java files I'm using Panosha 1.7, do i need any additional files to play .jars ?
Esmertec Jbed
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407667
so only need to download any sonny ericsson game and play it?
i am also looking for car races games so i will try your sugestion.
For more info on how Java runs on Windows Mobile, see The (Java) MIDlet Bible (great article!).
To sum it up, you can, with effort, run some of the SonyEricsson games on your HTC, depending on the game, the resolution and what KVM (i.e. Java Virtual Machine for mobile devices) you are using.
HTC devices have built-in support for Java through Esmertec's JBed, but it is possible to switch Java engine as you like. Other engines may work better with your specific game.
well, i bought an X1 about 3 weeks ago and it is undoubtedly the best phone i have ever owned, the only problem i am having with it is the video playback.
Since i download DIVx movies, i would like to just stick them in my X1 and watch them at full speed. I tried using core player but since it is not hardware accelerated, i could only watch the movies in medium quality which is MUCH worse than the high quality and if i set at high quality i get only 80% speed.
And i see people trying to get the best possible conversion settings in order to be able to play high quality videos on the Media Panel or on Media Player. I find this useless since it takes FOREVER to actually convert videos and since i have so many, it would be a very tedious task.
I have a possible solution for this and i have no clue how to actually do this so this is my request to the brilliant developers here,
Is there a way to actually get the divx codec somehow from the samsung omnia and port it to other devices like X1 and seveal HTCs??? I mean i think it is theoretically possible since ppl have actualy gotten the Omnia ATI drivers right???
Hope this works!!!
I guess you could just download the divx mobile player from
http://labs.divx.com/MobileCommunity
I haven't used it in x1 but I did use it in the touch pro. I did not like the speed. As it wasn't my phone, I didn't bother to do any tweaks. I think it will be fine on the x1.
maybe i can help

well there are a lot of factors here, and im certainly no expert, but ill give this a whirl...
i have had my xperia for just about a month now and i have been watching divx movies on my coreplayer at high video quality flawlessly. or so i thought.. I watched some pretty fast paced movies too, like the matrix... and they seemed fine to me. again i dont know if any of my suggestions will make anydifference, or even be relavent to you, but i figured i could at least try to help. I will share what i found in general with my x1 and the core player
1. the x1 is highly tweakable in so many ways. I dont know how much youve looked around at how people are speeding it up using sktools, or the now famous storage card accelerator, but these things really do help. you should try them and see if you get any improvement. here is the link to the thread where this is all going down... to make it simple.. get skt tools, optimize, and get the sd card accelerator... the rest you can mess with at your own pace, but this will give you a big start.... anyway if you havent tried this stuff.. it may help..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=459328&highlight=show
2. god knows the coreplayer has so many $*$#* options... but here is something i noticed deep in the canyons of the player after my core player was bogging down horrendously for apparently no reason.... i have a lot of files on my sd card, and when i first opened the core player... the first few times even.. it lagged so much i couldnt figure out why... then i realized it was trying to scan my sd card and it wasnt really teling me it was doing this... there is an option that comes selected as default that tells the coreplayer to scan for files for its library on startup... if you have thousands of files like i did, and you didnt realize it was trying to build a library, like i didnt, and you opend and closed it several times... ok you get the point.. once it finally built its library, i found the option to turn off the auto scan, and boom,... suddenly it was working much much faster
3. i dont know if this makes any difference whatsoever, but i have an x1i, and i bet you do too, but if you have an x1a, there may be video playback differences in these "international" and "US" models that could be a factor too.
im guessing that what you are referring to, and what i have posted may not even relate, but it never hurts to try. FYI i just benchmarked for a minute or so while watching a divx movie and it read average somewhere in the 80% range... i dont know what that means, but the movie seemed to be plaing perfectly...
div x player
just tried the divx player to see how it compared to the core player...
core player works much better.... divx player was quite choppy.
maybe im missing something.. and i probably am, but the core player seems to be playing the divx movies perfectly at high quality
well, i have tried the divx player and it is absolute crap compared to coreplayer
benchmarking at 80 percent means that u skip about 1-2 frames every second. now might sound like much but i notice it and it is very annying. yes i have tried all the things u mentioned but did not notice much change except for with the memory card booster.
also the media panel and media player are hardware accelerated which means that they make use of the onboard ati graphics chip. coreplayer is not. also imagine watching a divx movie on the media panel wouldnt that be cool?? with the great interface and the speed and smoothness of the bond trailer?? i would very much like that. hope someone can get the codec somehow!
i see
thanks for the education. i guess ignorance was bliss on my part..
i hope we do find a solution here. any idea why the downloaded divx player works so poorly? maybe its tweakable?
I guess it simply sucks. Coreplayer is best player, and unfortunately by far margin. Unfortunately because there is low chance any other player will popup soon. Sooner or later Coreplayer will find a way to follow current devices.
Btw. be sure you use Coreplayer with TytnII qTV driver (should be default settings for 1.3). You can also disable AVC filter and high quality zoom. Other then that nothing really has effect on the playback speed.
The best player.
But almost half new movies are in AC3 format.
And CorePlayer don't support AC3.
core player team claim that they will support all qtv shipset in version 2
so just have to wait a litte while
ahhhhh thanks fo the info Tywith, thats definitely something to look forward to. i mean if im not mistaken, the TytnII does not have an ati chipset built in. having support for qtv chipset dedicated to XPERIA will definitely make it run smoother
all we have to do is wait.
Look at this sticky: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467590
If you convert your movies to mp4 you can play your movies using media player with hardware acceleration. You can create a joblist to convert multiple movies when you're sleeping
If you wanna use CorePlayer with hardware acceleration, use the DirectDraw in
Settings > Video. I've tried it and it works perfectly. It really takes full advantage of the Adreno 200 GPU (ATI 3D chip) and CPU.

Maybe it takes full advantage of the Adreno 200, but Xperia X1 has Adreno 130 which is much weaker than 200

which version of coreplayer are you using?
1.3.6 didn't have hw-acceleration for playback. sure, on a good rom and with video-files not being too demanding, playback was nice -> sw-playback. but it didn't support our hw directly. and from what i can see, 1.3.6 is the last version for winmo.
btw, funny to see they closed forums on their site. probably too many threads "when will you finally deliver what you promised?" and accuses of coreguy producing vaporware...
hello there, i just bought an X1 and was trying to find the best mp3 player. the ones i found on the phone were very slow. i have an 8 gb card with 1400 songs on it.
i need a player that doesn't have a delay between changing the songs and also a search function.
i found winamp for WM; i runs smoothly but i couldn't find the jump button.
any ideas ?
there are plenty...pocket player, imulator, s2p, lcg jukebox...
imo, pocket player is better choice, but it is not free
I also recommend Pocket Player by Conduits. Not free but the best player I have seen so far.
thanks man, i found pocket player, it's nice, but it's so slow . i'm having so many problems with this thingy, i can't even find the gps menu in settings
I dont consider Pocket Player slow. Its not lightning fast, ok. But slow?
Concerning gps setting: You will find them under settings\system\external gps
Another vote for Conduits Pocket Player. Not slow at all, slides and performs as expected. I had been a satisfied user for many years and had it running on all of my WM devices with no issues, and we are talking a far less spec-ed ones than Xperia. The best part for me is that it sends music over the bluetooth to a mono headset and with tweaks can be set up as a default media player for Voice Command, which means it gets controlled through bluetooth as well. Can't beat that.

With Pocket Player you can set up the interval between songs, even fading of one song into another.

I wonder if slowness is caused by your card read rates...
yeah, my card is probably slow, but this doesn't change the fact that pocket player has a not so nice search function. after you find the desired track, it replaces the playlist and you have to go back each and every time.
have you tried that winamp version for WM ? if i could find the "jump" button. it really looks like winamp and it's veeeery fast.
ps: i'm using the same micro sd on an n95 and it works like a charm, i'll try and update the x1 to 6.5; if i'm not satisfied with the results, i'll swap it for an n97.
It's a question of configuration. In advanced settings you can choose whether to generally replace the current playlist or to enqueue an opened file. What's more it is important to choose the correct method. If you want to replace the current playlist you choose open\open file but if you'd like to enqueue you have to use open\add file. It's the same in the library. When you press on an album, artist or track in the list a menu pops up and you can choose between play (replaces current playlist) or enqueue. In the library there are settings too. There you can once again choose between different ways the program interprets gestures/ actions. So all in all what you describe is a mere question of configuration and using the correct method
i've given up. i tried saving a playlist and it freezed my phone (twice). i don't care anymore.
now...this is WINDOWS mobile, right? on my p990 i had an emulator for old nintendo games (mortal kombat, street fighter etc); is there such thing?
what other games do you know? i saw a video, someone was playing tony hawk, i'm looking for something similar with good graphics and interesting gameplay, perhaps a football game, pool, bowling...
Perhaps... the problem is with your device.... I can't say I ever had any problems of any kind running Pocket Player, saving playlists, selecting songs, scrolling through lists etc, and I used it on quite a few WM devices so far. Can't even say the performance was ever affected by the ROM or specifications. It runs equally well on 200Mhz devices and 620Mhz devices, with 64Mb RAM and 256Mb. It even runs perfectly well on LG KS20 and that little bugger has many problems. I have it on my Xperia, needless to say.
FYI: I realise that you asked for a new media player, but I thought it was worth mentioning that both the X1s built-in meda players have a highly elegant quick search as you type feature.... just start typing..

if you have more than 1 song that starts with "mar" for example, it will only show you the first one
what's so elegant if it doesn't satisfy my needs? btw, where's the equalizer on these so sweet and neat "media" players? even with the players that have equalizer, the sound sucks in my car/headsets comparing to nokia.
i'm sorry to say this, i love ericsson, but i regret buying xperia.
Look it is clearly visible that you don't now how to use Pocket Player. You say: "This does not work, that is not possible". But everything you mentioned so far is possible with Pocket Player as long as you know how to use it.
Concerning your problem with playlists I cant confirm that the Xperia crashes when saving a playlist. Have you tried saving in another format?
If you don't like Pocket Player there are other solutions. Pocket Music by Pocketmind for example or Mortplayer. Both come with an equaliser but for me Pocket Player is by far the best program available.
AS for games you can get warcraft 2 and starcraft and heaps of other games.
hey, i have the best solution: throw away this crap and buy the goddamn ugly n97,
this morning i was trying to send an sms to a bunch of my friends and, surprise, i can't mark recipients, i have to select them 1 by 1. YEAH XPERIA ALL THE WAAAY
Look I found in 5 minutes by using the search function what you say is not possible.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354164
Search also for the keyword "power sms" as this is another solution. Maybe there is even more software available here at XDA. Generally everything is possible with Windows Mobile because there is software for almost any function you can imagine. So please either start using your brain or stop annoying us with your false statements. I don't care if you believe Xperia X1 is crap and N97 is better but stop claiming things that are just plain wrong only because you are to lazy to look for a solution yourself.
for me nitrogen is the best mp3 player for winmo.
so i have to install a third party software to send a lousy sms? if i wanna send a message to 1 guy, i use it's default app and if i wanna send one to many, the other one. i can't believe this. yes, i'm slothful, that's why i bought a smartphone
oh, btw, sometimes, it doesn't show the number that's callin' me so i have to restart it...
i have nothing against xperia or WM, i'm just being objective here, but imagine if i would have had to pay for all these extra applications? imagine if i didn't know my way around technology. i would want my SMAAARTPHONE to do everything by default; and by everything, i mean the basics.
you guys know better than me that many 3rd party apps are ****ed up and buggy and laggy, and trust me, i had more than 10 symbian phones, i know what i'm talking about. so don't you dare jump on me with "use your brain, false statements". maybe i do have a cheap micro sd, but why does the old n95 work so smooth with it a?
altae, i dare you to show me a video of you using pocket player. i want you to load a playlist with at least a couple of hundred songs, i want you to have there songs that have the same title such as come(ing) undone by placebo, korn and robbie williams. search for "undone", let me see how it shows you all 3 songs and after you select one, the playlist goes on just like "good ol' winamp". if you can do that and i can't, i swear i'll hit myself as hard as i can with the x1 in the head, in my nuts or wherever you want me to.
I install Android builds on my X1 just to open some low end apps and games.
Is there any way to just run apps on the x1 native ROM (WinMO)? I just want to play android games like zenonia 2, 3, illusia, and other low end games like irunner, moonchase, gamedev story and similar games.
It'd be like an emulator or something, (Crossfingers X)
It would be great, right? because then, developers won't have to do the whole android thing, just one smokin' hot android app emulator..
Your thoughts are interesting, but I think about normal emulators on pc etc.
So I think, emulators won't run the apps/games better than in Android.
The emulator will also have these/similar kernel android used.
PS. I hope you understand what I mean, it's a bit confusing^^
yeah i know
But then, just thinking..
It might be possible as there is YouWave for PC.. But I'm talking pure apps here, just apps no Android UI or anything else.
Of course X1 can't beat the high-end Android phone due to lack of gpu and low CPU power. You're prolly right, Android apps can't be expected to run better on X1. Android apps are for Android phone, but I was just thinkin. ... MAYBE...
X1 is an OK phone
X1 can play lowend games at a decent speed. But where are the games!? The developers abandoned Window Mobile and trust me, i've tried tons of android games on x1 and they work perfectly.
Again, HD apps is a different story. I'm talkin bout low end.
thanks for this
working for me fine. except if you have to press two button once. that wont work. like in a mtb trail game, where you need to accelerate and lean backwards...
