somebody try coreplayer...

somebody give coreplayer a whirl...
and tcpmp...

tcpmp has worked in the last couple ROMs. I've been using 0.81.

How's the performance? Is the processor fast?

nice and speedy. I never found the original TyTN a slouch, but now that there's a lot of memory available I can run several apps in parallel (even while playing long audio files).

i have installed coreplayer and tcpmp player on my kaiser. both are excellent on performance. the only thing is that the tcpmp player used to be able to play all the WMV files in my wm5 o2 flame but now on the wm6 kaiser, it wont show the wmv files at all in my video folder.
anyone knows why? is it my setting problem?
thanks, eric

This is an issue with the wmv files that they included on wm6. There is a posting somewhere on the codecodec forums linking to a posting here which has a zip file with the dll's you need. Just unzip them into the codecodec dir.

And I quote.
"Finally, in order to test the horsepower of the TyTN II I installed The Core Pocket Media Player and watched a few sample videos. What amazed me here is that I was able to put a video clip on the internal storage memory of the device that was NOT optimised for pocket PC and despite the DivX video being 640 x 320 it played back without so much of a stutter! This is something that I’ve never been able to do on any other device."

thanks so much i found it and fixed it.

How did you fix it?

i downloaded the 2 wmvencoder.dll files and dragged them into the windows dir, then installed .81 rc1. wmv can be decoded now but the performance is not good. i m still trying to find out why. but now at least it can play wmv files.

Does anyone know the settings for TCPMP and the Kaiser so that it plays video correct when slide is open and flipped up?
At the moment it plays ok in portrait (tap the screen and it goes landscape full screen) but when I actually open and tilt I cant get it to rotate and play full screen. it stays in portrait???
any ideas?

I experience exactly the same thing. I can play wmv files, but the performance is poor.
Did you by any chance find a solution?
PS! The poor performance is experienced in both TCPMP and Coreplayer.

Check this thread out...

Per the above post.
"... I'm using TCPMP and I've found that the following steps help relieve some of the problems.
1. Options/Video:
Change from DirectDraw to Raw FrameBuffer
Uncheck "Dither" (whatever that is)
2. Options/Video/Pixel Aspect Ratio: set to Auto
3. Options/Settings/Advanced
Check "Slow Video Memory"
4. Options/Settings/Buffering
Change "Preload at Underrun" to 85%
Note: I'm using PocketDIVxEncoder to convert everything to AVI files with the right audio/video size and format and I've tweaked the rom quite a bit. The most important setting change I've found to improve response of programs/video came from the vx6700 forums:
H_KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/System/GDI/GLYPHCACHE/limit
change setting to either 32758 or 65536
I've tried both, and I'm using 32758 because it's a smaller memory footprint, but 65536 appears slightly faster.
"
Has not helped much. I am trying to play an H264 file encoded at 640x480, 23.976 frame rate. palying back via the FFmpeg AVC format. Audio sounds fine, but I am getting less than 1 frame per second of video. Is it the H.264 codec? I know it is close to the mp4 format, but one of the posters in the referenced thread said these settings helped (for .mp4), where for me it they do not.

Core Player 1.2.5 youtube issues

Hey I've recently started getting error messages when I try to play youtube clips from the built-in player. I get an error message saying that the file type is unrecognized and it started happening when I started to really enjoy this function. Im running stock 6.1 ATT rom and have no other programs open while using core player. any help would be appreciated.
p.s
Im not a complete noob, I've already tried a soft reset and looking through the pefences to see if anything had changed.

same here. and it was working just fine a few days ago...

I have been using it, but since yesterday I have the same problem.
To overcome it; open m.youtube.com on your IE, search for the video you want to watch, double click it from there and it opens & plays correctly with the coreplayer!
Explanation, no idea!

Same problem here, but only when I select the H264 or FLV file formats for Youtube. When I use the RTSP format it works fine, but the quality is total crap. Any ideas??? I would like to use the FLV format because it looks much better.
Has Youtube changed its file or streaming formats???

Ahhh, thanks. When I set it to RTSP it works.

Bump for anyone else who knows why I cannot play FLV or H264 youtube videos in coreplayer since the last week or so...

Bump...anyone know? want to use this program to play FLV videos

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.

I have the same problem, and I have tf3d, and the blackstone dialer, the videos can play in coreplayer but not on windows media...anybody have a solution?

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.

YXFlash Player

Hi,
I found a flv player (tested) and maybe divx (haven't tested yet)
You can get it from here : http://www.mobilesoft.kr/files/yxflash.apk
Have fun with it

It has ploblem with auto-rotate. I recommend to turn the auto-rotate off when using it.
To put the video in landscape just slide your finger on the screen

Nice, I'll have to check this out....
Lets hope it works as advertised....
EDIT: Plays WMV files that my previous Video Player would not. Excellent.

Hmmm, interesting. It forces closes as soon as I try it. Literally as soon as I click on the app to start it.

Did the same thing to me, just hit wait. It'll get through it.
Pretty buggy app though. But it worked

it works only on cupcake

Why you gotta bust chops? lol

tried it with different worked.

Did not work for AVI, mp4 video is very choppy but audio is fine, did not test other types

I ve tried it with :
-flv worked very well from dailymotion
- avi only 1 frame then it quit...
- mp4 worked better than meridian with files with resolution higher than 480x320 but very laggy
They have to worked on it. But it looks promising.

Non embedded codecs (audio or video) will be stuttering messes owith Android because they have to go through Java to work. It beats the cpu to death and is the reason Coreplayer have bailed form trying to port their app to Android- at least until better hardware access is provided.
People are wasting their time trying to make these apps.

Since 2.2 nexus one cannot play mp4 videos

Well I had 2 mp4 videos previously on my sd card and they played nice from the gallery in 2.1 but since i updated... the phone says " this video cant be played"
Anyone else with this problem?
Any solution?
thanks in advance

you worried me there since i never attempted to play any videos since my manual update to froyo from stock att yesterday.
my mp4s still played.
i was on unrooted att update 1 stock. just manually flashed frf85b yesterday and it still works for me on the gallery.
hope you are able to sort your problem out.

you probably used the wrong video codec when you compressed it.

dont think so those same videos were previosly playable on 2.1!
@antikryst thanks
any ideas anyone? anyone else with the same problem?
my nexus is an at&t stock by the way

Yes, my phone too has the same problem. I had few files which stopped playing since 2.2 update. That said, I downloaded another mp4 file and my Nexus One played it perfectly fine. Weird.

are you on the new radio? the new radio has different codecs...

Same problem here man. I have about 11 movie's on my phone + every episode of King of the Hill. King of the Hill is rmvb so I use RockPlayer for those. When I go to the gallery in my videos folder it shows my 11 movies 5 of them have thumbnails and play and then there is the others that don't have thumbnails and don't play but the weird thing is I used the same converter for all of them and the same converter settings and they all played on 2.1 but now only 5 out of 11 do. Weird stuff

Get RockPlayer. It owns.

No it Rocks

I've got the same problem on my nexus one. I can't play most mp4 files and other stuff anymore. RockPlayer is not bad but the video decoding engine of RockPlayer does need more energy as the internal one.
Also rockplayer does not support streaming, so rtsp:// links don't work anymore.
Another issue is with the twitter and twitvid website. It will server a mp4 file (twitvid) of which the system player is capable of playing. RockPlayer is not available to play these files after opening through the twitter client.
I would be very happy about any tip to debug this problem.
Things I tried so far with no success:
Delete cache and data of:
* Gallery
* Mediastore
* Meridian
* RockPlayer
* YouTube
