Any suggests. for audio bible? - General Topics

Quick question not meant to trigger online debate...
Does anyone have any recommendations for a good audio bible for WM thats easy to navigate?
Would like to brush up on study via audio while I drive.
Cheers...

depend on what you seek really
as in
THE BIBLE
or a guide
and if you want to have recorded audio of voice read to you
or a robitic voice reading text to you

My apologies for being vague...
Audio recordings of standard english bible that is navigable on ppc.

if it's just recoarding it's the same thing as music audio navigation

My duh. You are exactly right.
Now I just need to find the audio tracks by book/verse or something.
UPDATE>>>
Got it... http://kjvmp3.com/kjvmp3.html
Gives me a good reason to upgrade my sd card to a larger size.
Thanks Rudegar.
May the force be with you. ;-)

WM6.1 Sounds Audio Files Types & Gain

I'm new to WM6.1 Pro. Was using Standard and got a new phone.
With my trusty old Tornado, I recall there was a time when it wouldn't use just any audio file (wav, mp3, etc) as an alarm, notification or system sound. Then, one day before I could investigate this phenomenon, I installed a Tornado ROM that made them all work.
So imagine my disappointment when Wilhelm III (yes, I named my phone, what of it?) with a 6.1 ROM wouldn't let me use just any old sound file.
So I need to ask, what criteria is this functionality based on? Is it determined by the location of the audio files? The encoding of the files? Does it have to be wma or wav, or specifically what codecs or bitrates?
With WM Standard, I was able to adjust maximum volume output through the AudioGain settings in the registry for BT, and Speaker (I could have adjust mic pick-up too but I had no need).
But it seems that WM Pro doesn't have AudioGain, so how do I tweak my phone to ring louder, and hear voices better?
And yes, I have searched, I do search, and despite being lost for hours and being greatly more informed about many things, I haven't found an answer that provided results for me. And despite my sudden return to noobishness, I am generally a very helpful person, so I think I deserve a freebie quickie question-response this time.
TIA

Best alternative music player.

I like the music player in Sense and I also quite like the look of S2P (although the lack of any treble and bass controls means it's a non-starter for me) but I'm looking for a decent alternative with a good finger-friendly UI. I have tried numerous other media players but hardly any have a suitable interface for non-stylus use. In these I include PocketPlayer and PocketTunes. I tried Nitrogen but for some reason the slightest adjustment on any of the frequencies results in distortion.
Any suggestions?
I'm just up to my neck in suggestions here!
I use on an everyday basis Pocketplayer from conduit. It's very good and full of options: podcast, equalizer, internet radio, media guide. It's not free but it worth it.
I tried that out but it's clearly designed for a stylus. It also didn't look right on 6.5.x and the bottom of it's window sat over the bottom toolbar. I was thinking more along the lines of a music application specific to the HD2 or suitable for WVGA capacitive devices at least.
I was looking at Nemo player on the Android. Something like that would be ideal.
I'd also like a good music player that has an ecxellent equalizer because the audiobooster keeps being buggy
I remember seeing something somewhere about SRS WOW or something like that, i don't know if that's just an equalizer or a media player, some clarification would be nice.
I would strongly recommend SRS WOW as an alternative to Audiobooster. This would allow you to use S2P (or any other stand alone player) and maintain high end equalization.

Why don't you try the finger-friendly version of TCPMP?

Worked great when I tried it on the floor model HD2 at T-Mobile.

I don't rate SRS WOW at all, I have used it previously on the HD2 and other Windows Mobile devices in times past. I'm quite an audiophile and, despite tinkering with it for hours, I couldn't get a sound I liked with it, eventually getting one frequency sounding good resulted in other frequencies becoming overpowering or near silent. I also think the 3d effect is ridiculous.
Without any hesitation... Kinoma Play
It's really the best music player. Sound quality is perfect and the interface is absolutely amazing.

It's a paying soft, but it's worth the price.

How is it's equalizer?
I tried Kinoma Player, it seems to be a jack of all trades master of none to me. It also looks a bit crap and blurry on the HD2 as they have no WVGA skins for it. Not overly impressed and not what I'm looking for.

This has no sense. You are saying that you are looking for a decent alternative with a good finger-friendly UI.
Obviously Kinoma has probably the most finger-friendly interface of all. You may not love it for some reasons but I'm pretty sure it's better than S2P for instance.
Very difficult to understand what you are looking for exactly. Finally I don(t understand the purpose of your thread. Just test all the audio players available on the market and chose the one you like. It does not deserve a specific thread. That's all mate.
I use Nitrogen
Hi there really interesting post!
I need a good player too, cause 70% of time spent with Hd2 is for play music
but it's difficult to find a serious and stable solution, they seem all to young software..
htc audiomanger
+beautiful and default
-no alphabet scrolling bar,difficult to import playlist without wmp11-12, it search for all mp3 on storage, ringtones too (solved with reg twaek)
Pocket Player
+the best in general,scrolling ,playlist,nowplaying,albumart.. (haven't tryed with 10 gigas jet)
-some bug-now fixed skin on 6.5.x-, i can't open my mediamonkey playlist after sync!!i'm trying to solve but.. damn. and waiting 4.2!
S2p
+overall, best free alternative, good extended options with S2U2, it read mediamonkey imported playlist with no problem
-false now playing list,too laggy interface on hd2..
Nitrogen
+so nice..
-but so young too , no playlist, buggy excution ...
Kinoma Play
+ it seems to have a really good a stable base system
- but music it's only part of too many services, already installed on hd2..
This is my experience, there are also other player but i think the upper are the best. The problem is that i still not have a definitive solution for mp3...
An mp3player must be able to import playlists from pc for me, i have too music and it's unusefull play all the imported tracks toghether..or recreating them manually on device..
Solving sync for PP playlist could be for me the perfect solution, but i 'm not finding ways ..I there someone that can help?
When i sync playlists with media monkey, it transfer playlists written with wrong addresses info. The player read welll all titles but when it try to open a track, PP search for playlist addresses with 'Storage Card\artist\album....' while the imported playlists from MM have just 'artist\album....' written in . Anyone experieced and solve that?

The purpose of the thread is obvious but I will point it out anyway for your benefit. I was hoping people would make suggestions regarding music players I hadn't used, for example you suggested Kinoma and I tried it out and found it to be wanting. Just because my opinion of it differs from yours it doesn't equate to it making no sense. You said it's interface was 'absolutely amazing'. I disagree with that.
Your comment on this not deserving a specific thread is somewhat unusual given the type of forum this is. Perhaps you would like to specify exactly what subjects deserve to have threads and what doesn't? I'd say this thread is perfectly valid for the reasons pointed out above.

Good post, thanks. I will have to find the reg tweak to stop the Sense music player picking up ringtones.

What surprises me is that there seems to be no need for Bookmark or a similar function. I know that Pocketplayer has this option. For me that is certainly a must. As for the quality of playback whatever the player it will never be like a stereo set.
The most ideal for me is a mediaplayer what can play all the formats, music, video, photo and E-books. is completely configurable. Has an excellent equalizer and Bookmark function. But like all good things in life, they are not within reach

I find Pocket Player to be the best music player for WM. It was certainly not developed with finger friendliness in mind, but it can certainly be very easily used on the HD2. It has great features and despite some bugs (related to WM 6.5) it is certainly better than S2P (which I believe to be just an iPhone copy - I don't like that).

[Q] Futuristic/Sci Fi Ringtones

I am looking for quality futuristic and/or sci-fi sound effects and ringtones from movies like Minority Report, I Robot, the new Star Trek....movies of that sort. If you know where I can find sound effects like this, please point me in the right direction. .....and just an FYI, I've already tried Zedge and had no luck. They have too much "music" and other garbage to be able to find anything useful and of quality as far as what I'm looking for.
Thank you, in advance for any leads.
I'm just tired of music ringtones and all the other "usual" stuff.

I thought of that, but the problem is that you don't ever get a good clean sample of ONLY the sound you want.which makes for a very poor quality "ringtone" that sounds like it was recorded from a movie scene. .....not what I'm going for.
Depends on the source, I guess. It's not hard to use music from times in movies where it's just he music playing - and it's easy to isolate something like "phaser fire" or "light saber", et cetera.
You could just also search for a specific thing and see of someone has already done it.

Fast, Quality audio conversion app?

Anyone have a suggestion for a good app to convert audio files from lossless to mp3?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using XDA Free mobile app
The key is to get a good MP3 encoder. Some of the cheap/free ones make mistakes during the encoding process, resulting in poor quality. I highly recommend the LAME MP3 encoder engine, shown here: http://lame.sourceforge.net/
Of course, that's just the engine... you'll need a program to perform the work "around" the engine... their link to "software which uses LAME" is a good place to start: http://lame.sourceforge.net/links.php I have used various programs at various times in the past, so I can't point you to a specific program, but I am sure any of these can work well, since the engine is great.

Music recording sounds very bad

Hi everyone,
It is common knowledge (I hope) that when you try to recording a video or just a simple audio file with some music (for example a song during a concert or, in my case, an audio while I play the guitar and I sing something) everything sounds very very badly! Now, my question is:
Is it a software or hardware problem?
This is important to me because I use very often my phone for these kind of things, mostly during a concert. I've tried to look for something about it but I could't find any useful answer. I hope it's a software problem and it can be fixed just changing a ROM. I'm using the phone as stock now. With no root and, of course, no custom ROM. Thank you
Wtf, completely disagree...
Em, I am a musician, and I wouldn't really agree. There's no way that recorded music is better than live music cause obviously, the live one is 100 times much more powerful.
Do you have a case on it?
(Lol, don't cover any of the mic ports with your fingers and keep people, objects out of the sound path.)
Are all the mic ports open and free of debris?
What file type are you recording in?
I wouldn't expect miracles from any smartphone for HQ sound with the built in mics. Some do fairly well.
