How do i make TCPMP defualt player

Since wmp takes up 60% memory when playing mp3's who do i make tcpmp the default player? everytime i click on the icon to start up music on the htc home screen it always starts up wmp and i dont see a default option anywere on tcpmp.

you have to open tcpmp , go to settings, select the page with file asociations and check the box for mp3 files

i've done that and it still opens up wmp as the default.

in the htc home customizer there's an option to select wmp as default player or audio manager, when i select audio manager, i get file can not be opened, one of it's components can not be found. Is there something w/that i need to do?

bumping, any help on this? i have mp3 checked on tcpmp, but it still opens up wmp as the defualt when i play music, unless i manually select the tcpmp player.

First install the WMDecoder file to your device and extract the two files (wma and wmv codecs) to the Windows folder, using Resco File Explorer or Total Commander, soft reset your device. Get the WMDecoder file download here http://www.mediafire.com/?19gjvmjzylt .....! When your device comes back up, go the TCPMP/Player> Options> Settings> Select Page> File Association>, Check mark {ALL} the blocks and make sure you see {Windows Media Audio files}, by chance if you do not see this file, then you must reinstall the two WMDecoder file (wma and wmv codecs) to the Windows folder again. Another file which is the key file for making the TCPMP/Player the Default player is this file, Windows metalfiles(ASX,WMX,WVX,WAX), make sure the block for this file is check marked. Have fun...............!

media player library adding problem

Hi,
I have a problem, when i try to update my library on media player it finds them all the trys to add them and it just gets stuck half way through?
Any ideas?
Thanks
Jason

delete a hidden file
Sometimes the library gets corrupted. Try this
1. quit media player
2. open file explorer, and check "Show All Files" menu option
3. Locate and delete the folder MSMETADATA from the root (mine is in the root of the Storage Card)
4. Restart media player, and rebuild your library.

HTC Music player config

Hi all !
OK, first, don't ask me why I want to do this... because I want to do it ! I like to have things in the right places ! lol
I've created a directory in my internal storage in \Stockage interne\My Documents\Ma musique in order to put my music files instead of that's stupid Music directory in the root of the internal storage.
Everything goes fine with WMP and I can listen to those files. It founds all the files in its library.
But the TouchFlow Player cannot find them and always try to search for files when I go on the player tab.
I've found and changed some keys in the registry which seems to work with this player, but that doesn't work at all.
Here are the keys I have found and changed to my new directory :
HKLM\Software\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\Config\device_scan_path_path
HKLM\Software\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\Config\device_scan_path_path0
Any idea is welcome...
EDIT :
I've found something. Its the second key that matches the directory to search your files from.
Now I've the HTC Player Library with the music files and can play it, but there are some double entries for the same file.
I think the reason is the number of try.
Does anyone knows where the library database is stored in order to delete it and let the player rebuild it ?
Thanks...

had the same problem
i solved it this way:
opening library->all songs->start one song
after this i had all songs in the touchplayer...
it seems that its just showing the playlist, not the whole library

Is that what you want?

Thanks.
It was very helpful.
I deleted the database in Application Data/HTC/AudioManager_Eng/AudioManager_Eng.vol
Also modified the registry.
If you set the same directory in these two keys, you have two time your songs in the library !
If you try to delete one, it is automatically created when you softreset the device.
so I have also modified the registry keys like this :
- HKLM\Software\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\Config\device_s can_path_path : /Stockage interne/Ma Musique
- HKLM\Software\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\Config\device_s can_path_path0 : /Stockage interne/My Documents/Ma Musique
As I have no files in the first directory, seems to work correctly now...

YOU'RE THE BEST; it's working NOW 'comme un charme'.
Thank's a lot.

Are you sure it freezes? Mine just takes *ages* to finish that stage.
But yes, delete that folder and you'll be able to rebuild your library from scratch.

Delete the folder (that he said above) via file explorer. You can usually find the folder in the root of your storage card. Works everytime. G/L.

unable to find the hidden folder WMDRM, used the search program on my phone asnd still no luck . do i have to sync my tilt and delete it thru the cpu.

If you are using the standard file explorer, make sure that you have the "show all files" option switched on.

i wish it was that simple
yeah it is. win i pulled up winrar to un rar a file i saw it as a folder but i can't get to it. still haven't sync phone, @ wrk

If it 1 thing its another

after this it updating says it found 2087 files but only adds the file save to the phone not the memory card. doeas this sound familiar to any one

yeah use Total Commander or another "good" file explorer. & remove the "WMDRM" folder... it should be in the root folder of your SD card...
even then, if you have a TON of mp3's you may have to wait 5 minutes while it updates... I've had to reboot when it freezes & its hard to tell when its just taking forever & when its frozen :S
If that STILL doesn't work, try putting your files back on your desktop computer, then put your SD card in your computer, and re-transferring them that way.
Hope that helps

You can't add files to a playlist if the player app doesn't recognize them.
How did you add them, by copying them to the Music folder on your device? I sybc them to the device using Windows Media Player and have zero problems.

i had an issue with my first captivate deleting my music files too.
returned it and havent had an issue since
BUT that first phone was running rogers 2.2 stock. DID you just update to 2.2 stock?
i run custom now only
