Hello all
After long search in this forum and in cruise's registry, I didn't find how to play video with tcpmp (instead WMP) in HTC Video Album.
TCPMP is correctly configured for play all media by default in my phone, (photo,music,video), since the explorer, by example. But not since HTC Video Album.
Someone could help me?
And I think it will be interesting for a lot of people!
THX a lot!
Bye
After one week of research, no solution...
possible fix
Hi,
I did the following with my device:
I opened the registry and browsed to HKLM\software\HTC\Biotouch\MediaHubMini\App1_3\ and edit Path. Insert the following value if you have an English device: \storage card\program files\tcpmp\player.exe
If you have a different langauge device you should replace the \storage card\ with the name of your card.
N.B. This only works if you installed TCPMP player with the default settings on the storage card.

Good suggestion, however this only gets you to open TCPMP through the cube "Videos" icon, not within HTC Album as requested by ZueBug - I think ZueBug meant that he wants to be able to click on a video from within the HTC Album UI and then have it call up TCPMP to play the video instead of WMP. This would be great since the HTC Album has a much better UI as compared with TCPMP for browsing through your video collection. I started a thread on this issue a while back, however no one has come up with a solution as yet.
Better yet, i don't even see any videos in HTCAlbum. That's why i changed the Video button in the cube. I wouldn't be able to view any videos, now i am. So for me it's a win-win situation.
But after reading your post i assume you CAN see videos in HTCAlbum?
TCPMP is my default music and video player. But my problem is: how to make TCPMP default player in HTC album!
THX!
Touch settings
Use Carlosp touch settings v 2.2 .
Works almost perfect for mine Cruise , except a message at the opening.
For wich I'm still waiting for a solution.
If you read my first post in this topic you'd have your solution to PCPMP player being defautl in the cube. But i guess reading is hard these days...

Yes, videos are viewable in HTC Album for me after clicking on the Videos button in the cube. Apparently though, it only recognizes videos in MP4 format. Any videos in AVI format are ignored when placed in the folder from which HTC Album reads. I guess HTC Album was really designed specifically for the videos taken by the on-board camera and nothing else. So I assume this is why you can't see any videos - your collection is not in MP4 format, correct?
As a test, I converted an AVI clip to MP4 and, low and behold, it was recognized in HTC Album. However, I am not about to get started converting my whole video library to MP4 anytime soon!
Well, the fun part is, all video i have is made by the Polaris. So either the HTCalbum sucks balls, or there's something wrong with my ROM.

That is weird! Here is my rom info if it helps:
ROM Version: 1.25.405.1 WWE
ROM Date: 12/11/07
Radio Verision: 1.58.21.23
Protocol Version: 25.65.30.04H
Anyone else with my rom version able to confirm my findings? Anyone with NeoS2007's rom version able to confirm his findings?
THX for all, but my problem is still not solved...
(not possible to find the solution to play video with tcpmp or another soft since HTC video album, not f..... WMP... )
And NeoS2007 stop to talk if understanding (and reading!!!) my problem is hard these days...
I launch TCPMP from the cube.It's my default multimedia player.But when I'm in HTC album, videos are played in WMP. Voila le problème...

Hi there, on my HTC P3300 and my wifws Asus P320 we have used Coreplayer to watch youtube videos with good quality.
The last few days we get 'unknown file format' trying to open flv streams from yutube.. I have tried different settings but can't get it working again.
If I select RTSP, it works fine, but the video quality is no good.
Anybody knows what is wrong?
same here. and the tcpmp flash plugin isn't working either. which leads me to suspect that youtube may have changed their codec slightly? i dunno!
From the coreplayer forums:
"We are aware of this issue and are working on a fix to repair it,
Youtube changed the way it plays flv files and we will release
a version fix as soon as possible. "
Answer:
YT function on CP sucks!
I have only ever wanted to access youtube on my phone 2 or 3 times, usually when an upcoming film is mentioned in conversation and I want to have a look at the trailer. As coreplayer is software which is already on my phone, and it works ideally for this sort of usage, I for one hope that it is working again soon.
Seems as though TCPMP does not work on WM 6.1 from what Ive seen/read.
Anyone get this working?
Same problem. Now i use "Coreplayer" V 1.2.5 / 4506 insted. Works fine...
Best regards
I've used coreplayer many htx devices on wm6.1. No problems here. Maybe a file error?
I use coreplayer and tcpmp on my kaiser (wm6.1), but 2 things I noticed about coreplayer is:
1. It doesnt play all .flv movies, any flv movies I save directly and try to play it just shows it as if it's loading, but there should be nothing to load.. it's already on my device!
2. Is there a way to view a playlist and add and remove files from the playlist? like on tcpmp you can just click playlist.. on coreplayer i cant find one! I found a "now playing" but wasnt able to add items.
This version http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=380387 should work
Theres a good thread over in the Diamond section about video playback and some settings Sketchy found that work pretty well with WMP but corePlayer chokes and dies:

Hi guys I couldn't find a HTC Album working that plays videos. I've searched but no luck. Can somebody help me please? I'm on a tytn II
Thanks I appreciate it!
As far as I know, the HTC Albums just don't browse and play video files and I currently can't find any picture viewing programs that do so too. Maybe you can try posting in the Dev&Hack section requesting a picture viewer program that also browse video files, that may be interesting.
TCPMP can play picture files and Video files and audio files, can play internet radio, can browse pictures, aduio and video over home wifi network as well (if you have set it up). Give it a try. I have it set up as my default picture viewer. I also use S2V to view pictures (love it) but it does not show video's. TCPMP opens fast to view video's and pictures and displays really nicely with some viewing options as well.
htc album DOES play videos
look for htc album 2.0
its extracted from devices like opal,jade etc
hello people,
I have an error with my own rom (diamond wm6.5 build 23009) when I play a mp4 files recorded with the camera. The message "source filter could not be loaded" is displaying when I play this kind of files.
I search in the registry files of package (mediaOS) and there isn't reg key for mp4. I guess that there is no codec installed for mp4 or the registry keys are missing.
Thanks for your help
EDIT : I solved this issue, it came from my DShow package
Are you willing to use another app to play almost all formats?
Try: Coreplayer or TCPMP
If you wanna stick to WMP I´m sure another member will show you the possible fix
Good luck,
It works well with core player but HTC Album can't read my mp4 files. It's why I wanna solve this issue (otherwise I hate WMP ^^).
Hey guys, I hope someone of you can help me,
all of a sudden the videos I have on my storage card of the HD2 don´t show up in the album "photos & videos" anymore. It just shows the photos, the videos have "vanished"....but they still are on the storage card and they play just fine, but I have to manually go to the storage card folder they are in to play them, but i want them to be displayed in the "photos & videos" tab of htc hd2 sense.
Can anyone help me, this is really frustrating
switching on and off the hd2 doesn´t help either....
what have you installed or changed lately?
I converted a movie file with the videora htc hd2 converter http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/htc-hd2/ (note that I converted it to match the htc touch hd, because the htc hd2 is not listed as "mobile phone profile")
I once tried to sync it with windows media player, and already didn´t show up in the "photos & videos" tab. Second time I just drag & dropped the movie file onto the storage card into "storagecard/dcmi/100media/..." Both times I could play the movie out of the windows explorer on the hd2 but never showed up in the "photos & videos" tab....
I started to sort the files in the "100media" folder on the storage card by name, date etc because I thought that could have been the problem. Then I selected "show all files" in that "100media" folder.....nothing, so I reversed everything to its initial status like it was before I changed.
Now even the videos shot with the HD2 camera won´t show up, but they are there......
Oh sorry I forgot, I installed lately a custom taskbar, maybe that is the problem? but I deleted it now...
Some video files won't show up, but it largely depends on the format and encoding options. So just use the settings suggested in the HD2 video encoding thread and you're good to go!
yes ok thanks for the help, but it even doesn´t show its "own" videos, I mean the videos shot with the camera of the hd2....I don´t think that it has to do with video formats?.... I think that would be too simple....

Gonna try it myself, but none of my videos have ever been shown in coverflow(isn't this the music player btw?). I think what you're referring to is called "Album".
Edit: My own recorded videos do show up in the album so you've either got your storage location set to something other than the default folder or something is messed up in your manila files.
