Not a bad alternative to core player or tcpmp players, actually works quite well. http://www.divx.com/mobile/
its very nice - thanks bro
Thanks for the info.
I have downloaded it and tried it. It's a useful backup to TCPMP and Coreplayer.
Is there any chance to use divx for recording videos with the camera?
I'm asking cause i read it on the divx page, but it was just for some devices
can somebody just post a link to the cab file? why should i register for a free bit of software and let them spam me?
I correct my first post. I have uninstalled this app because it changes my backlight settings. I can't stand it when an app changes my settings!!! I have set my backlight to go off after 1 minute on battery and when charging. This app changes these settings to 5 and 10 minutes respectively...I cannot for the life of me understand why they can't code this properly.

Can it play or add codecs for AVC, h264, AAC etc etc?
I guess not...
(so its not like it is any alternative to TCPMP, its just a one-format player)
The latest build is dated April 17th, how is that "new"? (Almost half a year old = back in the stone age in tech terms )
I found this a bit jerky with some vids where the same ones play fine in coreplayer. Thanks for the heads up though.
Yep, i agree, after playing with it for about ten seconds, it's pretty much a one trick pony compared to core n tcpmp. I dig the nice simple interface reading compatible files though; scrolling through an 8 gig storage card with Core looking for Bamboo *****es when you have over a hundred files that start with B...is annoying and a hard on kill. Hopefully Coreplayer is watching
Nice
thanks
Did anybody manage to run TCPMP on TD2?
I've tried 0.72RC1 as well as 0.81 version without success. Both crash immediat after start.

What you need is: 0.72RC1 recomp 03
recomp 3 not working either
Thanks for the tip. I've downloaded and installed it. It's starting without crash but it does not work. I hear some audio but display becomes froozen afterwards.
Interesting side effect: Even though the display is froozen through a PC connection using My Mobiler I can see what should be displayed and even control the the dialogs. Only the lower portion of the screen (I guess pix 640 to 800) is blocked.
Well TCPMP is not that good a player, but it can get the job done.
If you like to play high resolution video(About the same res as the screen, 800*480), then theres Coreplayer, or if you rather not pay for a player then you can convert the video and play them using HTCAlbum player(The default one for recorded video).
Have a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3830181&postcount=11
Yes, I would recommend the CorePlayer. Although not the best, it is by far the best player for videos.
If you aren't aware yet, it is actually a commercial version of the same TCPMP with slightly better stuffs like GUI and sorts..
Have you tried it to work?
Regards,
Carty..
Finally I bought CorePlayer license - and it works perfect on TD2.
Not really a cheap solution but I have to admit its a really cool SW.
Thanks anyway
Hi all,
I believe this issue is ROM related that is why I am starting the thread here.
Issue:
CorePlayer starts lagging, dropping frames and is getting the audio out of sync on all Windows Mobile 6.5 ROMs which I have tried, including NRGZ28's 6.5 and 6.5.1 ROMS as we all now his ROMs are one of the best.
Currently I am running stock Windows Mobile 6.5 5.2.21854 (Build 21854.5.0.80) same issue - however if I turn off the TouchFlo 3d (Manila 2.1) all works fine.
Tried using cleanRAM - no good.
Any advice or help on this will be highly appreciated and I believe not only for me
Regards to all.

I never wanted to run a cooked rom before the official 6.5 upgrade came because on WM6.1 my Rhodium played normal 700MB Divx files quite good, while a friend that had been running every unofficial 6.5 rom had very poor playback/ image tearing, and the images looked very rasterized when filling the whole screen even though the same video on my phone running official HTC 6.1 rom looked very good.
He tried installing all of the drivers available like ati, neo driver pack, exc, but nothing worked. I figured that it was probably due to the cooked roms.
So after the official 6.5 upgrade came out I switched and ever since my video playback is bad, the images tear, and look really rasterized.
I now think that the poor video playback is either:
A.) some software/ drivers that were in the official 6.1 rom but are not in the 6.5 rom
or
B.) something in coreplayer is not working with windows phone 6.5 causing it to run very badly on 6.5.
look in the Rhodium Software section, not rom section. there are tips for coreplayer playback
I traced the problem back to Touchflo3d after trying different things. When I turn off touchflo3d it works without lagging etc. It's a work around I always use whan I want to playback a movie in Coreplayer.
I new there would be others having the same issues. it is not the core player - I tried all suggestions, switchin qtv to gdi, larger buffer size - no good. it must be the 6.5 and what drivers it comes with. that is why I am writing here as the cooks now what they put in their drivers and might now what can fix this. what I assume is the ne manila 2.1 eating too much resources, because when switched off - core player works like e charm.
It is a workaround but everybody knows its a pain in the a** to turn off touchflo3d to play a movie and then switch it back on after that.
So, dear Cooks, enlight us with your knowledge, please
Regards to all
this only thing made me hate myself for trusting htc again (1st, p3300 with poor hardware for full price)
I have the same problem and Im on the 6.5 roms. Coreplayer does not play anything smooth at all. I was forced to encode my music videos and watch them in WMP but is there a solution to coreplayer yet?
I tried playing around with all the settings (GDI , DirectDraw, QTV,) tried everything on the 6.5 roms and its a no go.
I even tried to flash back to a 6.1 rom but phone hung on boot screen so I had to force bootloader and go back to 6.5 rom. hmmm...
By observation,
when you occupy memory higher than 50%, Core player tends to Lag and look funny, that's why when you disable touchflo3D (takes about 7-8% on memory), video's can play normal and look normal. When I had the default stock rom , i managed to disable many things thru the registry and brought the 44% down to 26% which allowed me to leave touchflo3D on and use core player with any issues. but now that im in wm6.5 currently having issues trying to disable stuff to bring down memory.
Long story short - Maintain your memory about 46% or less and core player will play and look perfectly.

Im still not sure what the problem is. I managed to go back to TMobile stock rom and disabled touchflow 3d on wm6.1 still cant get any video to play smooth.
The videos im testing are mp4 with 800kbit bitrate at native resoulution also at 25fps and still choppy.
You know this should go into the General section but as to an answer I read that Coreplayer does have a driver issue with WM6.5 and they have to update their software. But to get good playing videos why not just use the WM6.5 stock video player. You can use it by selecting a video through albums. It plays everything just fine. I have a Blu-Ray rip Transformers 2 movie that is 1.48gb and it plays perfectly

Do you happen to know the video bitrate of the blu-ray rip? Im curious of the highest video bitrate possible on the touchpro2 with smooth playback.

It is a video driver issue in this case. Same amount of memory with or without TF3D - lag occurs with TF3D and no lag without. It is only confined to the TP2 and WM6.5 because the Pure doesn't experience any lag with TF3D.
I noticed it with the ATT stock rom and the newer Manilla 2.5 based roms. It must be some conflict with the video drivers. Manilla is winning the conflict.
i have core player and i never experienced a lag even with tf3d on

i play everything with the default album. it allows hardware acceleration and handles mp4 and h.264 perfectly. someone in the blackstone forum even made a wvga converter that works perfectly.

And more importantly what video setting do you have and what sort of videos are you playing? The issue involves QTv and I am sure anything higher than 320x240 with decent bit rates. As I mentioned before QTv appears to be the issue.
I remember reading some stuff from Betaboy (I think that is his name) on the video driver issues with the Qualcomm devices and TF3D is the only program to take full advantage of the video chip. At some point something broke with the TP2, WM6.5 and TF3D.

i thought i had a a bigger size but i didn't.
same problem
I am having the same problem with all ROMs
in 6.1, no problems playing, anything higher on ANY ROM and it starts to lag.
I personally can't use the built in player as I play divx and mp4 files, and windows media player does not seem to like those.
I have Core Player 1.3.2

I am running Core Player 1.3.6 - same problem, I was on 1.3.5 with ROMs 6.1 and it was happy, now ... I have to turn off TF3D.
And people, understand that we want to play DIVX and XVID files (AVIs) downloaded directly, I am sick converting files and thinking which will be the best resolution, bit rate, etc ....
I hope you understand.
The Dutch stock 6.1 rom has absolutely no problems with coreplayer. Stock 6.5 gives me sometimes smooth playback, sometimes not. I watch divx/xvid with SD resolutions.
I'm using HTC sense on my Xperia. I've been filling up the 16gb sd card with music, but it always takes forever to update the library and often doesn't update songs at all. Is there anyway of speeding this up or forcing it to rebuild the library?
Cheers
HTCSense/Touch flo has always been super slow with large music libraries. That was one of the reasons I got the X1 way back when, b/c I knew Sony's Music software would be better, and it is...

Why don't you use pocket player? It has a great library even for huge mp3 archives. It's not freeware but definitely worth the price. www.conduits.com
hello there, i just bought an X1 and was trying to find the best mp3 player. the ones i found on the phone were very slow. i have an 8 gb card with 1400 songs on it.
i need a player that doesn't have a delay between changing the songs and also a search function.
i found winamp for WM; i runs smoothly but i couldn't find the jump button.
any ideas ?
there are plenty...pocket player, imulator, s2p, lcg jukebox...
imo, pocket player is better choice, but it is not free
I also recommend Pocket Player by Conduits. Not free but the best player I have seen so far.
thanks man, i found pocket player, it's nice, but it's so slow . i'm having so many problems with this thingy, i can't even find the gps menu in settings
I dont consider Pocket Player slow. Its not lightning fast, ok. But slow?
Concerning gps setting: You will find them under settings\system\external gps
Another vote for Conduits Pocket Player. Not slow at all, slides and performs as expected. I had been a satisfied user for many years and had it running on all of my WM devices with no issues, and we are talking a far less spec-ed ones than Xperia. The best part for me is that it sends music over the bluetooth to a mono headset and with tweaks can be set up as a default media player for Voice Command, which means it gets controlled through bluetooth as well. Can't beat that.

With Pocket Player you can set up the interval between songs, even fading of one song into another.

I wonder if slowness is caused by your card read rates...
yeah, my card is probably slow, but this doesn't change the fact that pocket player has a not so nice search function. after you find the desired track, it replaces the playlist and you have to go back each and every time.
have you tried that winamp version for WM ? if i could find the "jump" button. it really looks like winamp and it's veeeery fast.
ps: i'm using the same micro sd on an n95 and it works like a charm, i'll try and update the x1 to 6.5; if i'm not satisfied with the results, i'll swap it for an n97.
It's a question of configuration. In advanced settings you can choose whether to generally replace the current playlist or to enqueue an opened file. What's more it is important to choose the correct method. If you want to replace the current playlist you choose open\open file but if you'd like to enqueue you have to use open\add file. It's the same in the library. When you press on an album, artist or track in the list a menu pops up and you can choose between play (replaces current playlist) or enqueue. In the library there are settings too. There you can once again choose between different ways the program interprets gestures/ actions. So all in all what you describe is a mere question of configuration and using the correct method
i've given up. i tried saving a playlist and it freezed my phone (twice). i don't care anymore.
now...this is WINDOWS mobile, right? on my p990 i had an emulator for old nintendo games (mortal kombat, street fighter etc); is there such thing?
what other games do you know? i saw a video, someone was playing tony hawk, i'm looking for something similar with good graphics and interesting gameplay, perhaps a football game, pool, bowling...
Perhaps... the problem is with your device.... I can't say I ever had any problems of any kind running Pocket Player, saving playlists, selecting songs, scrolling through lists etc, and I used it on quite a few WM devices so far. Can't even say the performance was ever affected by the ROM or specifications. It runs equally well on 200Mhz devices and 620Mhz devices, with 64Mb RAM and 256Mb. It even runs perfectly well on LG KS20 and that little bugger has many problems. I have it on my Xperia, needless to say.
FYI: I realise that you asked for a new media player, but I thought it was worth mentioning that both the X1s built-in meda players have a highly elegant quick search as you type feature.... just start typing..

if you have more than 1 song that starts with "mar" for example, it will only show you the first one
what's so elegant if it doesn't satisfy my needs? btw, where's the equalizer on these so sweet and neat "media" players? even with the players that have equalizer, the sound sucks in my car/headsets comparing to nokia.
i'm sorry to say this, i love ericsson, but i regret buying xperia.
Look it is clearly visible that you don't now how to use Pocket Player. You say: "This does not work, that is not possible". But everything you mentioned so far is possible with Pocket Player as long as you know how to use it.
Concerning your problem with playlists I cant confirm that the Xperia crashes when saving a playlist. Have you tried saving in another format?
If you don't like Pocket Player there are other solutions. Pocket Music by Pocketmind for example or Mortplayer. Both come with an equaliser but for me Pocket Player is by far the best program available.
AS for games you can get warcraft 2 and starcraft and heaps of other games.
hey, i have the best solution: throw away this crap and buy the goddamn ugly n97,
this morning i was trying to send an sms to a bunch of my friends and, surprise, i can't mark recipients, i have to select them 1 by 1. YEAH XPERIA ALL THE WAAAY
Look I found in 5 minutes by using the search function what you say is not possible.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354164
Search also for the keyword "power sms" as this is another solution. Maybe there is even more software available here at XDA. Generally everything is possible with Windows Mobile because there is software for almost any function you can imagine. So please either start using your brain or stop annoying us with your false statements. I don't care if you believe Xperia X1 is crap and N97 is better but stop claiming things that are just plain wrong only because you are to lazy to look for a solution yourself.
for me nitrogen is the best mp3 player for winmo.
so i have to install a third party software to send a lousy sms? if i wanna send a message to 1 guy, i use it's default app and if i wanna send one to many, the other one. i can't believe this. yes, i'm slothful, that's why i bought a smartphone
oh, btw, sometimes, it doesn't show the number that's callin' me so i have to restart it...
i have nothing against xperia or WM, i'm just being objective here, but imagine if i would have had to pay for all these extra applications? imagine if i didn't know my way around technology. i would want my SMAAARTPHONE to do everything by default; and by everything, i mean the basics.
you guys know better than me that many 3rd party apps are ****ed up and buggy and laggy, and trust me, i had more than 10 symbian phones, i know what i'm talking about. so don't you dare jump on me with "use your brain, false statements". maybe i do have a cheap micro sd, but why does the old n95 work so smooth with it a?
altae, i dare you to show me a video of you using pocket player. i want you to load a playlist with at least a couple of hundred songs, i want you to have there songs that have the same title such as come(ing) undone by placebo, korn and robbie williams. search for "undone", let me see how it shows you all 3 songs and after you select one, the playlist goes on just like "good ol' winamp". if you can do that and i can't, i swear i'll hit myself as hard as i can with the x1 in the head, in my nuts or wherever you want me to.
