Video in .asf format - General Topics

Could someone please confirm that Media Player plays videos in .asf format on any of the following machines: on Elf / Touch or Niki / Touch Dual or Polaris / Touch Cruise
I know that it should play it, but I tried on a WinMO Motorola and it did not play.
Any help is appreciated.

Check if you have these dll's in \Windows ....

I tried to open the file on a smartflip. WMP actually sees it as an audio file.
Any clues?

Windows Media 9 codecs on WM6/TCPMP

Hi there, is there any way I can watch this video (for example: mms://sdmc.contents.edgestreams.net/horsgv/regions/siege/infos/f2/20h/HD_20h_20070904.wmv?WMCache=0) on my SP5m with TCPMP 0.72RC1. So far, only the audio works, it says "video codec (Windows Media 9) not supported by the player". My smartphone is running WM6 (english perfect edition). I also tried using the built-in Windows Media player to play it but without success, it says "an unknown error occured". Same with the software "Streaming Media" which looks like it opens a rtsp:// link only, it won't work because it won't load a mms:// link.
I thought those Windows Media 9 codecs were installed by default, are they? I say this because I kind of remember playing a video on TCPMP that was using a WM9 video codec...
If I need to install that codec, how would I do that? Where would I find it?
Any help would be really appreciated! Thank you all for your time.

Edit 1: worked fine on my Ameo with WM6 - jus copy the 2 dll files(from this Thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298126 ) inthe windows directory of your ppc - then install tcpmp 0.81 und wmv are running in good quality 6 you also hear Audio
Works like a charm for me as well, I copied the 2 missing dlls (1 file copied, 1 file overwrited) into Windows directory and tadam, it worked even without rebooting, I was able of looking my news stream. Thanks all!
hello,
can someone please help me? I've upgraded to Windows Mobile 6. I've signed up for ORB and i wanted to use tcpmp as my default player for playing videos but i keep getting the same errors...
Can't Play WMA File
Can't Play WMV9 File
now i did try copying both .dll files to my "smartphone" and when i did go into my smartphone, i couldn't see the files, they were hidden - how do you go about doing this? i'd really appreciate it if someone could help me out here.
now, my question is - is it because these files were extracted from a ppc device and i need smartphone specific files? can someone please help, thanks.

best video program for wm5

i have a hermes with wm5 and windows media mobile 10. ive been having a hard time finding a program that will convert my video files (mostly avi) to a format that my pocketpc can play. any1 have a suggestion as to what converter i should use or if i should just find another video player? im looking to convert my video files to a very small size so i can keep several of them on my microsd card. is pockettv a good player for what im looking for?
try tcpmp (the core pocket media player)
free and plays just about everything.
just search the forum or try my wm5 thread below, (think I put the cab in there)

TCPMP on Fuze?

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:

[solved]WMP error with mp4 files

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 ^^).

Streaming real video over WM 6.5

Alright, so I've been searching for a solution to my problem for about a week and couldn't find a solution. I looked everywhere including here, of course, and no luck. So I had to choice but to start a new thread.
I used to have the Tilt (TyTn II) which had the build-in real player (not real one player) and I was able to stream rtsp .rm video over wi-fi without any problems.
Now I upgraded to the Tilt 2 (WM 6.5) and I can't find the original real player which was on my Tilt. I tried Real One player that's available on Real's website which didn't work either.
I tried to install the CV media package (I think that's what it's called) by Cingular which is supposed to have real player with it but it wouldn't open on my phone.
I also tried the HTC streaming program but that doesn't the .rm protocol.
So does anyone know of a way to stream rtsp real media content on WM 6.5 phones?
I appreciate it and thanks in advance.
anyone?????
anyoneeeeee
