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

MP4 files: Can record & play on PPC, not on PC

On my Kaiser I took some movies. They were in .MP4 format. I copied the files to my PC and when trying to play them on the PC (by double-clicking on the file in the windows explorer) - I get this error message in a dialog box:
Title: Error
Text: Error -2041: an invalid sample description was found in the movie (VIDEO_011.MP4)
When I try to open the file in the latest updated version of Windows Media Player 11, I get an error message saying it cannot play this sort of file. I do have MP4 codecs on my PC as well.
Lastly, when I copy the files back onto my PPC and then open the camera application, I am still able to open and play the files with no problem on the Kaiser.... so there is nothing wrong with the files... so what the heck?!?! HALP!

try quicktime it does a good job with mp4 files
people been reporting mixed results getting mp4 codecs to play
in other players sometimes there were no audio somethings it dident work
at all

Perhaps you could try googling 'K Lite Media pack'. This is highly recommended by many, and it works great for me. It plays so many different file types, such as flv files (say if you downloaded a youtube video and wanted to play it straight away) and I'm pretty certain, MP4 files too. The player you play videos with is called 'Media Player Classic'.

yes, get k lite mega codec pack

Tilt MP4 Videos unviewable on PC - Vista Ultimate Upgrade results in...
I even upgraded to Windows Vista (via download) to try to get this to work. I figured waiting long enough after it first comes out (it's been one YEAR), they would have ironed out all the bugs. Also figured since Vista SP1 was about to come out I could stumble along with whatever my issues were until it was released in case I still had problems...
I am more gutsy than most to do things like this with my PC because I automated a backup of only files that have changed, the first time I turn on my PC each day, to an external drive which I can just grab and run with in case my home ever catches on fire, etc. Runs in the background and only takes about 10 minutes, that has saved my butt more than once...
I specified only upgrade rather than a fresh install, so none of my programs or data would be lost:
1. All my data was lost anyway !!!!! Thank goodness for the backups!
2. All my browser favorites were blown away !!!! Thank goodness for the backups!
3. Almost everything also worked except for several drivers that I had to go to the vendor's website to download an upgrade. Good thing I am not using any hardware from vendors that have gone out of business. (I had to replace an old leading-edge technology $2,000 flat panel monitor because of that once.)
4. Tilt MP4 Videos unviewable on PC !?!!? AARRRGGGGGGGGHHGGHGHGGGHHHHH!
I'll try the "K Lite Mega Codec Pac" but have a couple of questions in the next post -
- Kruse

K Lite Mega Codec Pac
What "K Lite Mega Codec Pac" do to your PC? Is it removeable? Does it overwrite other codecs you might have? Does it come with a program for managing your codec settings and what is in use vs. not in use, or what?
Let me know, I really want to try it but I will wait for your response/s...

i would advise against using k-lite codec pack, if you really want a good codec pack,try cccp.
however, if all you wanna do is just watch the mp4 files, i suggest that you just use vlc, linky

Why is cccp better?
Why is cccp better, and how do I removed the codecs which I prefer not to use?

well, cccp is technically not a codec pack......its a filter pack, and has quite a few endorsements, its definitely the way to go if u need to play multiple video formats. the problem with most codec packs is there's high chances of damaging ur system if you dont know what you are installing. you may end up having multiple codecs for one video format. most ppl would tell you to avoid using any codec pack because the problems it would cause, i used to think the same, until i discovered cccp, seriously excellent when it comes to mkv playback.
however, like i said, if you're worried so much about codecs being installed on your system, just go ahead and use vlc, its a standalone player with its own decoders, doesnt install any codecs to your system watsoever.

Netflix

I did a search and can't find any threads on Netflix. I saw an ad on TV that they now offer on line streaming of movies...has anyone tried this on a tilt? For $4.99 that seems like a better deal than buying movies and downloading them on to the SD?

I watch streaming movies on my laptop using my Tilt as the modem, but I don't think there's a way to get it to work on a Windows Mobile device directly as you have to install a small activex app on your actual PC (it intregrates into windows media player) and then you watch streaming movies that way.
PS there is a way to download movies from your PC, remove the DRM from them, and then convert them to play on your Tilt. I won't go into that here, but if you google you will find info on how to do that.

That's too bad...I'm surprised somebody hasn't figured out a way to do it yet as that would be pretty popular.

Does anyone know if the WM Windows Media Player plays DRM encrytped files?

How to view recorded videos on pc or Xbox 360?

So when I record videos on my Tilt it records in mp4 format. How can I convert them to something Windows Media Player can play on a pc (or an Xbox 360 can play on the tv)?

In order to play them on my pc I just rename the file from "video.mp4" to "video.3gp". It gives me a warning message that the file may become unstable or might not play, but I have not had a problem yet. Also I use quicktime to play the file on my pc after I have renamed it to 3gp format, WMP still won't play it. Quicktime wouldn't play it in mp4 format, but will if its named 3gp. Be sure to keep a backup of the file in the original mp4 format, just in case, it never hurts to have a copy of the original. If your stuck with just WMP then I am sorry, I have no clue.

Yeah, the Xbox 360 uses WMP, so Quicktime isn't an option for me.
I am trying to stream something from my PC to my Xbox 360 (and displayed on my tv).
I would think that since I am using Microsoft Windows Mobile to record the video that it would be compatible with a Microsoft Xbox 360. But then again, we all know how great the Microsoft MSN service works in Microsoft Outlook, so I guess this isn't surprising.
They really need to get it together at Microsoft. If they could make their left hand work with their right hand they would have a pretty nice body. But as is they don't have a body, they have a bunch of body parts that aren't connected.
It's ridiculous to me that a top of the line PDA phone running a Microsoft OS can record pretty decent quality videos, but can't play them on Microsoft's flagship multi media device- the Xbox 360, and can't even play them on Microsoft's own Windows Media Player.
/rant. Hopefully somoene knows a workaround...

I think if you go to Micro-soft web site , then to down loads, you can get a add-on that will do what you are looking to do
I look around and see if I can find a link for you..

you could do a google search for the MP4 codec that's the codec I use most often on the Microsoft Zune its accually a higher quality of video I think. Also if your using windows vista theres a free codec package out there that has just about every codec you could ever want when I get home i'll post you some links
The reason it wont play on the Xbox 360 is because it uses an audio codec that the Xbox dosent suport according to the software I got it says the audio codec our phones record in is "samr: ARM Narrowband"

for the PC follow F2504x4

Bad video Playback

Hi,
I have PDA's for years and have never had problems with video playback (full films etc.)
But the diamond playback is terrible I have tried loads of different roms but it doesnt make a difference.
I've tried using media player and TCPMP 0.72 both video is very jumpy, The same files played great on all other pocket pc's that i have had.
Any ideas what I can do?

Read the stickies at the top.

Thanks will give it a go, But I have the same issue with the Iplayer app. Kind of defeits the object of it if I have to download on iplayer, upload to pc, convert then back onto ppc.
Is there any way round it without converting as like i said the same video files have played perfectly on my last 5 ppc's.
Seems strange that a more powerful one cant play them

Divx do a free mobile player on their site, I use Core player it plays all avi,divx etc and its great its listed below ( FREE to you VERSION ), until someone removes it
