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.

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.

I tried to play a movie (.avi file) with windows media player on the diamond but it doesnt work. Which format must the movie have to play with windows media player? Is there other good programs beside coreplayer mobile? I dont want to buy coreplayer, do i have to install a codec on the diamond?
Do i have to convert to a special format, i transfered a movie sample file (.avi) from my computer to the diamonds internal memory but when i try to open the movie with windows media player, it doesnt work, what should i do?

Try the previous version of Coreplayer, TCPMP. It's freeware.
use TCPMP, theres a speical version of it for WM6.1 devices, plays any file format you throw at it and super smooth with more options than you can shake a stick at!
oh, and its FREE!

Agree. Hands down best media player. Smooth as it gets!
Thanks for your help i will try TCPMP, but should i just transfer the movie to diamond and then open it with TCPMP?
Yes it works now, how do i zoom in with TCPMP to remove the two black lines that are often in movies or do i have to somehow change the resoultion of the movie so it fits the screen?
when you install TCPMP you can set file assosiations so you can just click on the file itself to play, but of corse you can also go the long way around and open TCPMP first

yes, i use ImTOO Mpeg encoder to change resoloutions, i personally find that encoding files to .mpeg at 500 bit rate and 320x240 does a perfect job for me, doesnt take up much space on the internal storage and you dont notice any loss of quality playing it at full screen
i tried the TCPMP player.. although its good and convinent but it still can't play some .flv files downloaded from the internet, and the interface wasn't as perfect/ pretty.
I took on a more hassle approach. Downloaded PSPVC (a freeware that is able to convert most types of movie files into mp4 format) converted my movie files into mp4 format and then play them using the default windows media player 10. Works perfectly!

i havn't played around with the settings.. i am using the default settings (with the HD** AVC option unchecked).
Hello,
I have made a video encoding GUI for the blackstone, which allows smooth playback of hi-res videos in album.
With the recent change of adding VGA resolution to the GUI, it should now be usable on the diamond and raphael.
The original thread is located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467112
Could someone be so kind to encode a couple of movies/trailers or short clips and tell me how the playback is in album on the Diamond?
Thank you.
ill give it a try!
Thanks!
Please let me know asap how it turns out
Make sure to select the VGA resolution though, else it will make the video in Blackstone/Xperia format.

done testing!!!!
amazing quality!!! better the the settings i have for the coreplayer!!
the prob i get with coreplayer is that evry 1-2 min the video skips a frame!!
but after watching the video on HTC ALBUM no frame losses what so ever!!!
did further testing played this file in coreplayer and the same skiping of frames but real smooth in ALBUM!!!
gr8 work btw!!
video length= 0:22:20
File size after coversion=106MB before conversion 180MB
hope this help you!!
Core player can not handle these files.
Album uses hardware accelerated playback. Coreplayer does not (yet).
Thank you for your help.
Post further feedback in the original thread if you wish.

The converted file didn't show up in HTC album... and hence I can play it using the album...
But WMP can play the video...
Any ideas why?
BTW, I'm using official ROM (2.03.707.2 WWE)
Dont think that this has been discussed before so I am wondering if we can have all formats of video and audio on this phone and playable like it used to be with the wm6 phones with tcpmp.
Procedure would be to use the hd7 as usb drive and then drop the avi, mkv, flv files to the phone to avoid zune as it doesnt accept anything besides mp4 etc.
Then i believe wm7 requires special apps? so we cant use .cab?
Also i was wondering how do i get tomtom on this?
Sorry i am completely lost with the wm7 and need help.
zune will autoconvert many videos. I haven't had any trouble with videos on my hd7 not playing, just drag and drop and it should make it work.

X8 can support .mp4 file
download it with .mp4 format
or u can simply convert by your self with total video converter or what ever converter..but make sure it was .mp4 format
then try to play because some converter software have to many .mp4 format type (I mean resolution, HD not HD, MPEG4,Mp4)
just try
or
just use keepvid.com and download it into .mp4 I'm sure this will work on your X8

You can keep videos any where. Android will show them in Gallery.
If you want can put in VIDEOS filder in Card root also.
Youtube videos downloaded in flv format. You can install any flv player available in market and enjoy these videos directly.
