Real One Player & Blue Angel

Hi
Has anyone got this to work. I have tried umpteen .ram files, but it refuses to play any of them. I am using Version 1.1, but have also tried 1.0.
Problem is that real one player says 'Connecting' Then 'Loading' then after a pause of about 10 secs it reports 'Error: response or data from server timed out'.
It does this every time with *all* streams. There is no problem with the connection, no ports are blocked, everything other than real player works file. Additionally the very same .ram files play fine from a laptop that is connected via the same wifi AP. I.e it aint my setup, it something in the Blue Angel or the real player prog its-self.
Any idea's?? Stuff for WMP9 works fine, but the bbc insists on using real player.
Nigel

I have exactly the same with my MDA II on bbc.co.uk (other stations work fine) so it's probably a BBC specific issue.

Hi Pleun
Can you post a link to a ram file that works for you?? I have tried loads of (non BBC) RAM files and none of em work!
Nigel

I have the same problem on a MDA II with WM2003SE 2.06
I wasn't able to play any .ram file that I found. Windows Media Streams and shoutcast streams are working fine...

I tried a few stations from this site, don't really remember which ones :?
http://live.internet-radio.net/searchresults.php?format[]=1&format[]=2&sortby=Name
Never saw no ram files tho, must have been all windows media streams I guess

I'd like to be able to download the player... i been to real's site and the links for both 1.0 and 1.1 don't work , could anyone send me either of these please?

here u go

XDA2 Movies

I want to be able to watch movies on my XDA2 but do not know how to. Is it possible and if it is what would i need to do or get. Do i need a program on the XDA2. Which program would be the best to use?
Please could you help me because i really like my xda2 and want to watch movies on it.
Thank-you

The best way to watch movies on it is to go to www.handango.com and buy DVD to Pocket PC it's a program that compresses a dvd to about a mb for every minute of footage. You'll need an SD card to hold it- don't get a 128mb get a 512mb or 256mb at the least. The program works good I've used it on a load of films andit works on 95% but every odd dvd won't let you compress it. Te only thing to keep in mind is that if you get a huge Sd card everytime you get a phoncall it has to load up the card before the XDA2 will ring - on my 1gb card it can be about 4 rings sometimes. www.complett.ie is the cheapest site i've found for SD cards -1gb for 100 euros or £60

dimmy u can play movies on ur xda using softwares like pocet divx encoder and beta player , these r excellent stuff . u can find a long discussion on this topic on this forum cant remember where ..

Windows Movie Maker has an option to make (wmv) files for pocketpc devices. I ues beta player (i think it works really well). Another option is to use virtual dub or something and re-encode the file to a size that fits the screen. When I have do it that way, I also rotate the image 90 degrees.

Yo everbody
u can encode wmv movies with windows media encoder free download

tmobile wing video help

im sorry if im not posting in the correct forum for this but i am extremely frustrated. i would very much like to watch videos on my wing. however i cannot find a solution on how to get the damned things on the device. i have searched the internet and looked at the htc website all to no avail. if anyone can help me that would be awesome.
thanks to all who contribute

look for TCPMP on www.google.com

ok, i downloaded the cab file for my wing. i dled the one that says for pocketpc. is this correct? also i downloaded battery status but im unsure on how to use this. if you could help it would be greatly appreciated.

the only other question is how do i get the media oon my wing? ive tried syncing it with wmp and that fails. i tried drag and drop onto the micro sd card and that also does not work. what am i doing wrong?

anyone that can answer these questions please! it would be a great help

media is a broad term maybe you should state what files you are trying to get to it
never synced with wmp myself but have many many many of my cd's on my 2GB microSD card and it works just fine
both as mp3 and wma
also have ogg, mpg, avi(divx) and such on it

i am trying to get avi's mp4's.... basically any type of movie file on my wing and never can do it. always get an error.

dezos112: what player are you using? what error do you get?

i dled the player you suggested. the player is fine. the problem is getting the movies on my card. nothing seems to work.

what do you mean by "the problem is getting the movies on my card. nothing seems to work."
Explain more clearly please.

i mean getting the movies files from my computer onto my 2gb micro sd card.

so freaking frustrating! sorry for *****ing but this is the only thing that annoys me about this phone

if i need to be anymore specific let me know.

using total commander and marking the mp4 files and clicking copy would prob do the trick

What exactly are you using for copying the files over to the phone? If you're doing it over the standard ActiveSync USB sync, it's going to take ages and you may be pulling the phone out of its cradle before the file is fully done copying. If you don't have one already, I'd highly reccomend getting a USB 2.0 MiniSD card reader to speed up the transfer of movies and music.

ok... ive solved the issue on how to get the movie files on my phone. now i try to open them with the program, the first time i tried it worked like a charm. now when i open a movie file it crashes to the today screen. do i need a different media player?????

by the way. i opened the movie file with tcpmp. thats the program that crashes to the today screen. is there any other media player i should use?

Basic PC-Android Streaming Over WiFi

Hello all,
I'm looking for a way to simply open a Windows shared folder (SMB) and open an AVI file for playback on my Android phone (HTC EVO). I've read a bunch of tutorials on the web, and almost all of them involve setting up streaming software with something like VLC. I'm not going to be streaming over the Internet, just WiFi.
On two Windows PCs, I just normally go to Run -> \\MYSERVER\D$\Videos\ and then double click an AVI and bam... it's playing back. Can't I have the same ease on my phone? I don't want to do any transcoding or anything. Logic tells me that if two Windows PCs can do this, then a PC and Android phone can too.
I already have ASTRO file manager with the SMB plug-in. If I should go about this a different way, let me know.
Thanks!

Download a program from the market called blam blam bloom, it does exactly what you are looking for, I accept paypal donations as thanks for this valuable information.

+1 use cifs manager and cifs.ko module that support for your device

Where can I get cifs.ko that works with kernel 2.6.32.15-g59b9e50?

This isn't exactly the most SIMPLE solution, but Subsonic is absolutely phenomenal, and you can stream pretty much anything, with any settings you want, from your PC to your Android...anywhere.

ooops, i just came to pc and saw this thread now after i made a one asking the same thing... my bad...
i tried cifsmanager, it does exactly what i wanted, but it's really slow ... a normal xvid video pauses every other second, same video reads fine from sdcard...
and i can't get rockplayer to read those folders either cause it's reading only from sdcard mount ... can we go back a directory level in rockplayer?

You can try Gmote, but if you have a samsung phone, get AllShare

It's not that cifsmanager is slow, it just that some videos are too large to be 'streamed' to your phone without any sort of further compression. You're really just maxing out the bandwidth of the wifi I believe. I've been using cifsmanager for months and this my experience and opinion.
And if you can't get rockplayer to work with cifsmanager you're doing something wrong lol. I mount my shafe in cifsmanager, then click on the share again to launch Astro to take me directly to the shared folder. Then I just pick my file and tell it what video player to launch (stock, rock player, or vplayer). You can also change the path of cifsmanager to mount the share on your SD card.

Still looking for cifs.ko for kernel 2.6.32.15-g59b9e50? Can someone help? HTC EVO 4G.

ah deathsled lol i mounted it to a folder in sdcard now, hadn't really notice we could do it.
dunno about the videos being too large, cause the same videos, using mplayer in my wii, i can play them flawlessly without buffering, just by opening them from my computer folders through mplayer's smb connection, which i believe is same thing that cifsmanager does, and the wii only has wifi 54mbps too... so something is definitely really slow in either android or my dell streak

Astro with the SMB plugin works just fine for me...

ASTRO with SMB didn't work when launching other video players. I could browse and do file operations, but since it didn't mount the folder, other programs couldn't access the files.
However, I ended up moving to KiNgxKernel, which has CIFS build-in. I couldn't find a good, easy guide to compile my own CIFS.KO, and couldn't find one already made for my previous kernel version.

[Q] Copying DVD Movies to Note 10.1 N8013

I collect movies and have about 750 at the present time. I would like to download a few at a time to my SD card and watch on trips, etc. When finished watching, would delete and download others.
Is there a way to do this? Preferably free or at least not expensive. I have searched this forum in addition to this whole site, other Galaxy Note forums and Google with no definitive answer. Everyone has a different solution. There is one thread over two years old here but still not sure what is best way.
Expected this to be a simple task but seems it may not be possible. If it is not, is there a tablet that will let you do this? One of the reasons I purchased a tablet was to watch my movies....

The easiest way to do it would be using a ripping program, such as Handbrake, to convert the DVD to a video file that you can then transfer then to your tablet by connecting it to the computer. You could transfer some movies to your SD card and when you're done with them you can just delete them and put some more. Here is a video tutorial from the site Lifehacker for Handbreak:

Hope I helped!

Why you don't use a Player that can play you original DVD File?
Ripping is sucks. ☺

Because that would be a 4gb file or even 8. An avi though would be 1gb if you didn't have that great quality. We are working with an SD card that has very limited space. So size is a big problem. Don't forget that there is also probably more stuff that uses the space of the SD card such as pictures and music. And also the stock samsung video player app doesn't support vob files which are the DVD files.

Thanks for the info. Did exactly what you recommended. Downloaded Handbreak and added the livedvdcss.dll pgm. Loaded a DVD into my pc and followed the instructions to the letter, even using their Help function. After a bunch of attempts, I gave up and will probably just get a cheap portable dvd player and leave this tablet home. Also tried the AVC program recommended on another forum with the similar results. After spending several hours on this, it is just not worth it. Wish I had never bought this tablet. Should have bought one with Windows 8. Surely could watch dvds on those........

Yes I know about the size, but I play my video files in full HD. Not converted! Size between 8 GB and 20 GB.
I use a 64 GB micro SDXC Card.
How many Videos you want copy a the same time [emoji54]
Of course, you can't play it with the original Samsung player, but you can install a other.

OK. Then you could try Freemake Video Converter. It's the program that I use. It's really easy. But the actual problem is that if you don't have an nvidia GPU it's sloooooow and if you leave the default settings it will make big files. I actually use it with an AMD gpu on my desktop it's not that bad. If you have a very slow computer don't try it. But for me this is the best for my needs, mostly because it works with Greek subtitles too. If you have some time check it out. After you install it you just have to select a DVD folder. You can either select the actual DVD drive or use a program such as DVD decryptor - which I also use - to copy quickly all the DVDs you'd like and then select the folders. Or if you don't want to convert the files just do what buell47 says. Copy the files that DVD Decryptor made and use a player that that can play those files, such as MXPlayer. I hope that these methods will work!

Don't know if this makes a difference but my PC is a Lenovo G500S touch laptop with Windows 8.1, Intel i5 processor, 1tb drive and 6gb RAM and Intel HD Graphics 4000. The DVD player does not read Blu-Ray, only standard DVD's.
There are so many video converters available, surely one will do what I need.
All I want to do is download my own DVD movies so I can place on my SGN 10.1 GT-N8013 SD card to watch on trips, etc. Hopefully I can download several and delete and add others as I watch them. They probably have some sort of copyguard so need something that will allow them to be downloaded properly.

Since you have an Intel GPU I would not recomend using Freemake Video Converter. Instead use DVD Decryptor which will bypass the copyguard to rip the movie, transfer the file to the tablet and use MXPlayer to play it. DVD Shrink is another program that does the same as DVD Decryptor. Both work fine for me. Do you have a big Micro SD to put all the movies? If yes, then the solution above is the best. If you don't, then that would gain a lot of space, so I would recommend finding a USB stick that you could put the movies on and then use a USB-OTG adapter that would convert your tablet's charging port to a usb port so you could plug the usb stick and play the movie of it. Be careful tough. A hard drive wouldn't work because it's too power hungry for the tablet. So try using DVD Decryptor and MXPlayer and tell me if it works.
