I suggest Mortplayer for all audio files (exept wma) & TCPMP for all video formats.
Haven't tried any real files, so sarch a little on the web pls.

For RealMedia files, there is a RealPlayer available for the PPC.
Here's a link http://www.real.com/realmobile/download.html
fails to play the newer rm files though, just plays the sound, or just jams on "Loading"

Flash (FLV) Player

I'm after a (preferably free) FLV Player for my WM6 Wizard.
I've had a search, (both here and a general Google) and not come up with anything. Does such a thing exist?
Thanks.
i think tcpmp has a flv plugin...do a search for "the core pocket media player" and it's plugins...
Thnaks. I've just found this. I'll give it a bash today.
Hi,here's tcpmp 0.81 RC1+flv codecs+language pack.
http://rapidshare.com/files/41598596/tcpmpflvplugin-v0.2.zip
http://rapidshare.com/files/50375639/TCPMP.rar
Put language.rar in tcpmp\player folder.Unzip flv plugin and put the 2 files in the same folder.
Getting warmer.
The one I found didn't work for me in any way. Marcdu81's works in that TCPMP can see the .flvs on my storage card, but when I play them, shows a black screen for a second then just stops.
Still looking...

Compatible media players.

Hello. I've been trying out different media players on my XDA flint (X7510) which currently has the stock O2 ROM, and have had varying levels of success. Most of this post is about playing video files of verying format (.mpg .mpeg .avi etc)
TCPMP: I used this exclusively on my XDA Exec and rarely had any problems, but it seems to crash on many of my mpg files on the Flint. I've tried the original 0.72 cab, the 0.81 (which I don't think is official) and the 0.72RC1-recomp-03 cab which seems to work well on other WM6.1 devices. Of all these the 0.72 cab is the only one which will actually load.
Core player: From the same developers as TCPMP, this is their commercial app. It loads ok but I personally find the GUI ugly and confusing, the TCPMP interface is much cleaner and user friendly. Again, this app won't play all of the video files I've tried, so I guess more work is needed with codecs?
Pocket Player: This apps GUI is quite nice and navigation to files is easy with many helpful (anf finger friendly) menus to select content. Again, it couldn't play all of the media files I threw at it, but it didn't crash at all.
Summary.
I'm either going to have to convert any video files into a compatible format before watching on my Flint (which means I'm still not free of the PC) or keep searching for a truly versatile player...any suggestions?

Pocket Player does not work on my x7510 at all. It kills all sound from the device and I must uninstall and soft-reset the device to even be able to hear any sound from other players (like WMPlayer or Core Player). I have installed and uninstalled it 4 times and the same thing happened each time.

Winmo Media Player Formats?

I've been trying to download youtube videos onto my pc and then Syncing them over to my omnia i910. When I do so, I get errors. What formats do the videos need to be in?
I've tried downloading them from my phone with apps, but they dont really work well.
So can anyone tell me how to download them from my pc to my phone without these errors?
I'm currently using Ask and Record toolbar to download the videos.
if you mean wmp then that only support very very very few formats
if you want to play various formats on pocketpc get a players like coreplayer
or TCPMP
wmp is a pretty poor player in general

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
