My company is doing a webcast of a meeting this morining and I would like to access it on my WM6 Sprint Touch. WM player cant seem to open the URL. Any suggestions?
I do have TCMP, but that won't seem to open it either. Do I need a different CODEC or something?
Thanks.
Hi,
I am trying to get the ActiveX plugin for the Windows Media Player to work in PocketIE, or rather Internet Explorer Mobile on an O2 XDA Orbit 2 (Windows Mobile 6). The objective is to play a wma file from a URL, but using javascript to control the player, which will sit in a display:none; styled div.
I dont want to post walls of code, so I have setup this simple page to illustrate and test it:
http://lukas.xcomms.ie/cblproof/Default.aspx
I am able to display this fine in PocketIE, and I am able to play the audio file, just as in the desktop browser. However, with the new version of this plugin (i.e. using classid "clsid:6BF52A52-394A-11D3-B153-00C04F79FAA6" instead of the old "CLSID:22D6F312-B0F6-11D0-94AB-0080C74C7E95"), I am no longer able to use the javascript calls for .Play() and .Stop() on the player object.
When I switch the code back to use the old plugin, I can successfully use javascript to control the player in the desktop version of IE, but since the plugin is not installed on the WinMo6 device, I cannot bring the page to load the player in PocketIE.
Has anyone come across this before, or is there any reference documentation for the new ActiveX plugin, similar to the old Windows Media Player for PocketPC SDK that Microsoft had for PocketPC 2002 way back when?
Any input here would be much appreciated, I have trawled this forum and the internet for two days now, but unfortunately information is very sparse. I am stuck with PocketIE because of other requirements for the project, so switching to Opera or SkiFire is not an option I am afraid.
Thank you very much in advance for any pointers!

Other options
Hi again,
since no-one seem to have an idea to circumvent this particular challenge, can anyone suggest an alternative? I would be willing to skin the plugin, or use any other means of controlling audio in a web page through JavaScript.
I hate the fact that we have to work with Pocket IE on this, but at least it means that whatever solution we go for will need to work only on this platform and not across a variety of handsets / browsers.
Very grateful for any thoughts, opinions, advice,
Thanks again!
Mike
Hi to all
I bought HTC HD2 two days ago and i don.t know why i Can not watch movies from youtube using the opera.???Is that possible.?
use the youtube application in start/youtube
opera 9.7 does not support flash the way it should but they say opera 10 will
If you want a browser with full flash support (YouTube and everything), get Skyfire.
It's not better than Opera overall, but it's nice to have different options that cater to different needs.
in hd opera when a you tube link was clicked you tube application used to get autolaunch ...
but this never happens in opera of hd2 ..........
but in internet explorer you tube link open in you tube application ............
so any work around for opera of hd2 to launch you tube application when you tube link is clicked ..
Youtube works in Opera and it is fully functional (plays in the broser, with full screen and zoom function), you just need to activate it with a patch:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544770
Also allows to play videos from other Flash-enabled web sites.
I don't recommend Skyfire unless you are in the US.
Skyfire uses servers to give you the content and they are often slow, from the wrong country (DRM issues) or just not available.
You can test skyfire, but for me it didn't do the trick.
Just thought i'd start a thread polling people on their top apps.
So what 10 apps couldn't you live with?
I think this has been asked before somewhere on here, but it will be interesting to here more.
...i believe that the next thread will be "what are your top 15 apps?"...buzz me if i'm right

Coreplayer for Snapdragon?

there's one doing the rounds extracted from the tg01 which uses hardware acceleration. not legit though as its only licensed for use with the Toshiba
To be honest, have tried the Acer/TG01 versions of Coreplayer and in my test it's rubbish, mild increase on some file formats, normal version 1.36 of Coreplayer easily outperforms the supposed Hardware accelerated versions and these so called HW accelerated versions were unstable.
1-Resco explorer 2010 - It is very user friendly with a lot of function file explorer for HD2
2-Torchbutton - It is very usefull small program to enable led flash as a torch, you can add this to your program tab or assign as a button!
3-resco photo viewer 7.03 (multitouch support) - multitouch support and editing support software for viewing and editing pictures
4-googlemaps - ???!!! no need to explain
5-hicalculator - the best calculator for HD2 in my opinion with many (i really mean MANY) functions...
6-xdashutdown - for soft reset
7-coreplayer for snapdragon - for playing video and audio files support many formats!
8-spb wireless monitor - for measuring how many kilobytes or megabytes you use with your data,usb and wifi connection!
9-midomi 2.3(though it doesn't work correctly but i have to work on it) - just search then you will get what this is, it used for music recognition
10-foxit reader (for viewing pdf files and it is quicker than adobe reader )
and of course for those who are frustrated from htc messaging VITO SMSChat + registry hack(in order to make vito, the default sms application)
A small discruiption along with the app would me nice

Yep, HTC Album outperforms it as well, much smoother and better quality with correctly encoded videos.
I still use the retail 1.36 for music and standard dvd/tv rips.

Coreplayer for SnapDragon
Can any kind souls provide the link to this Coreplayer for SnapDragon please?
Or at least point me in the right direction by giving the correct filename?
TIA.
Morphgear, FPSEce, Resco Explorer, CorePlayer, Pocket Player, allReader, Opera, Pigeon!, Twitter tab , google maps, rss hub, youtube application, xdaShutdown.
Very cool thread but to have value to it you should include what the app does, I'd say it's more important than download link.. I'm gonna add my list later
Coreplayer first and foremost! So, I'd love to try the SnapDragon version. I'd appreciate a link or a point in the right direction.
Hey everyone,
Here's the deal. I install security cameras for a living and it's getting to the point were business owners expect to be able to view these cameras from their phone, be it Windows, Android, or Blackberry. I am mainly interested in viewing cameras from a Geovision DVR, if that makes any difference. I had this working on my TP2 and on a Droid once, but I can't get it working on my Evo.
The DVR has a built-in webserver. If you visit the DVR with a desktop machine on, say, Internet Explorer, it will display the full blown site. If you visit the DVR from a mobile phone, you are supposed to see the mobile version of the site. The thing is, the default internet browser on the Evo and Opera Mini try to display the full blown site. I assume the browsers are passing some information to the server that tells it if it is mobile or desktop, and it's emulating desktop.
I've tried enabling the "Mobile View" on the browsers but still get the full site. I'm not sure why the stock browser does it but I think Opera does it because of that Opera Turbo feature. I downloaded a browser from the Market call "Mobile Broswer" but when I try to view a camera it gives me "Page Cannot Be Displayed" and I have to paste the camera link into the stock browser and it will open it in the streaming media viewer.
Any ideas? This is giving me a headache because everyone seems to think it's my fault that their phones won't view the cameras anymore.
Thanks!
