Which Video Player to watch videos on Vista?

I am just curious to see what you guys think is the best video player to watch videos on my computer that I recorded on my Tilt. For some strange reason I am unable to hear audio when trying to view a video on my computer. When I use TCPMP on my phone I am able to watch the video with perfect sound.
Any ideas on how I can solve this. Tried to use Quicktime, Windows Media Player, and VLC player and still can't get it to work.

I've been using KMPlayer for a good while now and love it. I've not found anything else more configurable and it's nice to the system resources. Definitely worth a look.

Video on Vista..
alltheway, THE only video player to use on your pc is thru the K-Lite Mega Codec Pack which uses Media Player Classic, all the codecs you will ever need and a nice little player to view, check it out..

K-Lite Mega Codec Pack (www.codecguide.com) as duncstar mentioned is the best solution. What's good is that you can also play any media file using Windows Media Player (ie: no need for Media Player Classic).

What is the downfall of having both of these installed.

So called video pros would say any codec pack is grabage, but it's definately not a good idea to have multiple codec packs. K-Lite Full with quicktime and real alternative is probably the best combo. quicktime alternative 1.67 to be more specific because the ones after that stopped playing some cell phone movies correctly.

Diamond Full Screen Player

I've converted the diamond full screen player skin to qvga, but does anybody what lauches the player.
if anybody has one of these phones is it launched straight from the Manila interface or HTC Diamond Album etc?
I was kind of hoping it HTC album launched it when viewing movies clips.

MP3 Player

I think the built in manilla mp3 player stinks so hard i cant describe it :-D
So are there any good MP3 players around, preferably where you dont have to use the stylus.
Whats your favourite MP3 player for the Diamond?

i would really like the audiomanager seen on the touch cruise etc. on my diamond. Too bad i haven't found a working version till today for the diamond
audiomanager is great, to use with scroll wheel and fingers and is fast.

Definitely S2P...
I'm using S2U2 also... they work great together

Nothing beats Coreplayer for a complete media solution!

Totally agree!!! I use wmp with resume plugin for audiobooks. s2p is ok but quite slow and weird ui imo.

Custom music tab
I have downloaded bunch of cd's on my Diamond with album covers.
But i have problem creating "Playlists on the Music tab"., like the one that came pre loaded with phone.
PLEASE HELP !!!

Please help with testing a video encoder

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.

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)
