I did the update with the official HTC release. Coming from one of the modified ROM's from here. Some small things did improve. But the major drawback is that I cannot play video files (MPG, AVI) anymore. A hard reset didn't change this. Searching this forum on video playback for days now without being able to detect what would work for me. Installling 3d drivers? Why 3d, I just want video playback. Flashing to another ROM? Which one?
Thanks for reading and maybe help.

I have the same problem after upgrading to WM 6.1 official. I have 3D drivers too. Can be this that problem ?!?
with

or just with the build in player?
For me it is with the standard Windows player and with Coreplayer.
Thanks for your help.

I have the same problem... With bepe 0.67 room's I have no problem with coreplayer, but with the official WWE 6.1 ROm no playback anymore... Can anybody help us?

For me the same !
I have no problems with coreplayer v.1.2.5.
The default media player works ok with mp4 but no .avi.
Did you do anything extra to make Coreplayer run on the offical HTC WM6.1 update?

Hi everybody,
I installed coreplayer 1.2.5 and I play my videos again...
MOD Edit: Link removed. CorePlayer is commercial software that requires a S/N, so posting it here is not allowed.
regards,
Walter
You really shouldn't post links to warez here.
Strange.
I have no problems without coreplayer. Just stock player whatever-it-is. Plays mpeg/avi/Youtube smoother than 6.0
No tweaks used. Just upgraded + hard reset, used only official ROMs
After installing PocketTV video playback works.

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone here has experience with video playback on the HTC Tornado? Does video play smooth? can you play divx? wm9?
Is it a practical device for watching a movie while on a long flight for example?
Do you think that this device has any real features which set it apart from other modern high end telephones like for example the Samsung D600? The D600 has bluetooth, music playback, contacts and appointments syncronization, video playback etc... so apart from the fact that the Tornado is running windows OS - what does this actually offer you as the user?
Would you say that the Tornado is the best smartphone on the market?
Thanks for your help!

I would say yes, but since A2DT stereo bluetooth profiles are not currently working, I am witholding my vote for AKU 2.0 or AKU 2.2.
Many native 320x240 videos do not play smoothly on my device. I suspect that you need to re-encode these videos to 320x240x15fps, ideally from 640x480x30fps or higher source.
I have no idea about the best kbs settings or encoding format for smartphone playback. I have been meaning to test this.
Do you use Windows Media Player, TCMPM or something else?
i use TCPMP for audio and video all the time on my tornado. the built in wmp10 isnt as good as i hoped it would be.
anyway, i reencode my videos to 320x240 23.976fps, 44khz 16bits stereo (128kbps). these play smoothly on my tornado without problems. better yet, get pocketdivx encoder (its freeware ^_^) and let it do the job for you ^_^
I've written a guide on how to (re)encode movies for the Tornado with Nero Recode 2 and watch them with TCPMP.

Is there a good media player for Windows Mobile? I'm looking for something that will play avi & flv etc.. formats.
I use Windows Media PLayer Clasic and VLC player which plays all formats... Can someone please recomend me somehting please...
or, where can i download all the codecs for Windows Mobile?
thanks.
Coreplayer
CorePlayer or TCPMP
I'm using CorePlayer v1.3.6 build 7427 and it plays all major formats of video and audio.
The only problem i have is that my Moto S9 HD stereo bluetooth headphones don't work with CorePlayer only the volume buttons. If I can get this to work then it would be perfect. I have to use WMP if I want to use my BT headphones.
Please be aware that Coreplayer does not support video files with AC3 audio. This can be a big problem sometimes. TCPMP ( the freeware player) that Coreplayer was based on does.
for some reason, i cannot get TCPMP to work on Windows MObile 6.1.. any help?
which cab do i use for Windows Mobile 6.1? The Smartphone or PPC or Other?
Windows Mobile CAB
tcpmp.pocketpc.0.72RC1.cab
tcpmp.smartphone.0.72RC1.cab
tcpmp.other.cabs.0.72RC1.zip

what version of TCPMP are you using with WM6.5? Also, have you tried the latest version of CorePlayer v1.3.6 build 7427? I don't seem to have any issues with it so far.
i'm looking for a free player... I have to pay for CorePlayer
i'm pretty sure i sent you a private message with alternatives to Core Player and links. have a look.
thanks everyone for replying!

no, alternatives. like many that were mentioned in the previous posts. i just sent him a pm, so as to make it simpler for him to follow instructions (not knowing his ppc/pc literacy level)
in closing, i DO like coreplayer, i just think it's to much money for something that TCPMP does well.
Yo guys. i have installed both players on my leo. i like the tcpmp player the best because you can have ac3 plugin and subtitles. BUT its like it plays with a lower framerate than coreplayer? the fact is that movies exactly feels a bit too laggy so it gets annoying when watching on the tcpmp player. any know why or maybe got a solution?
regards alf
Same dilemma for me...
...
any got a solution to the laggy tcpmp?

there is no solution. coreplayer comes later and it's more optimized, but it doesn't have ac3 and subtitles support. Give and take....
just to add to the debate, this hd2 which I'm writing from, during a benchmark on tje opening of sex&the city, had 170+% speed in coreplayer, and 90-% in tcpmp...looks prety normal to me, asv previous poster sais, coreplayr developent went on, while tcpmp has stopped some years ago
a little OT question...what type of subs tcpmp read? because i tryed with tons of SRT but i dont understand how to let theme works
http://forum.corecodec.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=155
That thread talks of AC3 support via a purchasable plugin, confirmed as being in development by one of the developers back in 2007. However, it constantly got put back by the look of it until in the end the thread was locked after a very good point regarding the lack of a Coreplayer demo by the last poster. Shame.

I think it's a problem related to the use of cpu. If you launch tcpmp just after a boot (before it scales down to about 400 Mhz) you'll see that it is faaaast (yesterday I used this method to watch a 960x400 divx AC3). It remain fast as long as you don't leave the phone to go to rest...
I usually use Coreplayer, this method when I have a movie with subtitle or AC3

You have to use the right version and use GDI (if I remember correctly) as video driver.
Srt are ok, with older versions you had to use smi files (you could use subtitle workshop to convert them)

Try this soft to convert FLV to AVI
Coreplayer or the free version TCPMP will both play FLV files.
Hello, I'm using ( Aimersoft Video Converter ) and the profile of the iPhone 3GS the quality is brilliant and very very smooth , try it and give me a reply , i've been using it since i bought the HD2 and i just love it !
Hope it will work for every one of U .

+1 for coreplayer or TCPMP. Why take the time to convert videos when you can simply play them?
I bought coreplayer ... It's the one for me and a good prize too
Tried coreplayer and it's having problem in my unit, the video will be messed up and has to restart don't know why.
This video converter is very good, with the ability to re-sync audio (not that I have needed to yet). It was developed for the HD by an xda member. But yeah, TCPMP or Coreplayer will work if you don't want to convert it.
Thanks gotta give it another try.

Switch your video codec to DirectDraw then it will work like charm. Look for more tweaks in coreplayer forum.

Oh thanks but please let me know how to change video codec.
COREPLAYER: Menu > Tools > Settings > Select Page > Video > Video Output - change to DirectDraw
TCPMP: Options > Video > DirectDraw
In coreplayer, just make sure that a video is NOT playing when you do this....it tends to crash and forces you to do a soft reset (at least it does for me!)
I have no probs playing flv with coreplayer or TCPMP, I just prefer Coreplayer.
Thanks so much, actually GDI codec works for me but there's still very slight sync issue for some videos.
You may also want to try Chainfire's 3d drivers (if you haven't already)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=592663 (not the beta drivers - yet!)
Some people have said it improves DirectDraw performance in Coreplayer, but I never had any problems before, so I can't really say yes or no to that! The drivers do help with other apps too, so I would say they are worth installing anyway.
I think there is a known problem with the HD2 and video/audio sync, but again (lucky me), I've never noticed it.
