playing multimedia + TF3D Music not working - Touch Pro, Fuze General

Hey
*I was wondering if there is a good way to play wmv/mpg/... on the htc raphael?
As media player (on the raphael) can't find my mpg files on my disc when i update the library.
*Even mp3 songs give problems (i used media player to synch it but media player always uploads songs again you uploaded in the past too when you deleted them from the library)
For the mp3's I used the touch flo player first, which worked great, but since i quit using media player and started using winamp to put the mp3 files on it, TF3D crashes when i go to the music tab, and restarts.
Any solution for this? as Windows Media Player on windows mobile is slow and doesn't work good

Looking for alternate music player

Hi all,
I'm using CorePlayer as music player on my TP but I've discovered that if CoreP is running, everything else is working terrible slow.
If CorePlayer is plaing 128kbit mp3 and I'm working on opera there is a HUGE delay in keyboard response, menu speed and so on.
There is no similair lag when playing music on internal TP player.
Could you please recommend me some alternative music player which is less resource consuming than CorePlayer?
Regards
B.
I would recommend you Pocket Player. Finger friendly and i can usually read my ebooks while listening to music.
I'll try it - are you reading books on this PP or I misunderstand something ?
I'm using an old version of uBook reader which works fine for me
Regards
B.
WMExperts just did a comparitive article on some media players.
other alternatives could be: S2P (discontinued in the meantime but still a good app)
hope you find what you're looking for

yes I like pocket player for music and core player for music and videos

Err nope two seperate programs Pocket Player for music in the background and eReader.
Pocket Tunes is fine for me!

Pocket Player 3.7 slows down for me as well.
Even when the app is killed, it's still slow.
Nothing suspicious found in Task Manager.
Only way out = SOFT RESET
Why not just use WMP/S2P/Audio Manager? I seem to find that S2P does a very good job. I use WMP nowadays also with SRS WOW HD and Audio Booster. It does a good job once you find the right settings on audio. and I still love WMP's feature to lock the screen and use all the buttons, S2P can do that also
Music Player
I concur that Pocket Player is the best I have found after trying a number of different ones. Very user friendly & not too draining on resources...

Windows Mobile Media Players?

I love my iPhone because it can be my media player and my phone. But, I need more functionality offered in Windows Mobile.
So, do you guys use your Windows Mobile device as a Media Player? Or do you have separate Zunes/iPods/etc. to do the work of the media player?
If you do use Window Mobile, let me know what program you use for your media!
TCPMP is an excellent media player. I have not found an unlocked audio or video file it could not play. If you search for TCPMP in this forum or in the XDA-Developers Wiki you'll find most anything you'd want to know.
That said, while TCPMP is a nice player, it is not an organizer nor does it have a fancy "choosing" function for selecting files. Perhaps someone could recommend an application that makes launching TCPMP more intuitive.
Both have their place
I've got a Zune 30 that I bring along when I know I'll want plenty of music to choose from. My main reason is that battery life on my Tilt is not what I'd like it to be because my 8 gig sd card has plenty of room for tunes, and S2P is one of the slickest programs I've ever seen. You would be comfortable with it immediately. I do listen to Audible content (newspaper) on my phone every morning with the Kinoma player. It's actually easier to get the content onto my phone than to get it on my Zune. Audible's manager program blows hard. The Kinoma player can handle pictures, video, and streams as well. I use it for Youtube all the time.
As an added bonus for us Zune owners, I recently discoverd that ZunePass subscription content can be synched to our phones with Windows Media Player and plays just fine in either WMP or S2P, so I have been putting more music on the SD card lately.
on those occasions when i only want to carry one device then I use S2P to play audio files on my Trinity.
S2P on the Tilt for music, TCPMP for movies. Done.
Is s2p free? What media formats does it support? Is it A2DP compatible? And does it have any way of controlling music in standby mode (Can you click the D-Pad while the screen is off to skip a song??? Can you control volume using the toggle switches?
Thanks for the tips guys!
I use the HTC Audio Manager, which has a very similar interface to the classic iPod. You can use the D-Pad to control it and the volume switch to change the volume (but I think the device has to be on)
It supports A2DP.
You can also control it from the home screen (http://www.unwiredview.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/htc-touch-diamond-official.jpg)
Kinoma Player
I've used this free program called Kinoma Player which is brilliant.
It has full touch friendly interface, it can stream youtube files, supports many other files, it's great overall, even has podcasts.
I'd recommend that program, you can get it off of Windows Mobile Total Access or from Kinoma's sight directly.
Hey, about the ZunePass stuff, my subscription music doesn't work on my T-Mobile Wing. Any clue why? probably cuz of the DRM's but you guys said urs worked, so it leaves me wondering.
Do you sync ur Zune music to your phone using Windows Media Player sync? Or do you just drag & drop the music to ur card?
Sync the ZunePass content through WMP
and it should work. At least that is what works for me.

Touch Flo Media Playing not working

I had some media files (2 albums) stored on the Device memory. I cut and paste to the storage card and now the media player won't play anything, and it won't recognise new albums on the storage card?
Error message is...
We're Sorry....
A problem has occurred with AudioManager_eng.exe.
I have tried a soft reset but no luck, is there a way to reset the media player to default in anyway? or reload the sw?
I am using XDA Serra.
Cheers, Blair
re
Bump.......does noone know how to fix this?
Cheers, Blair
Same issue with me. I'm using NATF's 2.3 on the Fuze.
re
Well I am using S2P now which is working really nice, and is better that the Touch Flo player, although it doesn't have a playlist option.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=417511
However I would prefer to get the TF version working, even if I won't use it much now.
Cheers, Blair
I'm not sure but if you don't sync youy music library trough media player on your pc you're not be able to see it in Touchflo media player...
So try to sync some music this way or scan trough wmplayer to update the library, maybe this way TouchFlo media player show the list.
However I used to refresh the Touchflo music library deleting the folder called HTC under Application Data Folder at the root.
Reset the unit.
Just because TouchFlo does'nt seem to refresh any change made if I keep the same name on playlists or make modifications on albumart.
Hope this help! But I really recommend conduits Pocket player as the best player (lyrics, bluetooth, fullscreen albumart, equalizer, dsp, etc.)
TF3D Music player..
Thanks! Just downloaded the Conduit Pocket Player. Still wish I could use the TF3D interface to this or WinMediaPlayer. Maybe will be addressed in future NATF rom...
Jim
Anyone else have trouble w/ Pocket Player on the Fuze? It seems to 'skip' about once or twice a song, w/ no exceptions. I can't figure out how to fix that. Any ideas?

Windows media player mobile suddenly crashing when opening playlists

I just upgraded to the HD2 from the Touch Pro, but this problem occurred on both devices.
I have 5 playlists with 400+ songs in each. Last week these worked fine in WMP mobile. The day before yesterday, I installed a new 6.5.3 based ROM on the Touch Pro. When I clicked the same playlists, WMP mobile would stop responding. I didn't really bother try to fix this, as I knew I was changing phones soon anyway.
Today I got the HD2 and the same thing is happening on it. Stock O2 ROM.
WMP plays music fine when I use the library to go to all music. But the playlists cause it to crash. I have no idea why. Core player can open the playlists fine.
Anyone have any ideas? Why are these playlists suddenly causing problems in WMP mobile since upgrading WinMo on the Touch Pro or using the HD2?
Thanks
Maybe some corrupt music files?
Did you try playing from HTC's manila player?
The manila player also plays the individual songs fine. If I choose a playlist in Manila player, it appears empty.
Core player plays the playlists fine however. I have resynced the playlists on my PC and I performed a disk check on the SDHC card.
I don't get it
I have a HTC touch HD and the media player works fine on mine as well...it could be corrupt files...
I dont think its the HD2s fault either, since the same happened on the Touch Pro I had. The only thing they both share is a newer version of Windows Mobile, but that shouldn't cause it either. I have deleted and resynced the playlists, but still WMP crashes.
Also, the playlists work in Core Player.
Ok, so I opened one of the playlists in Notepad and deleted all the entries except for one song. When I then opened that playlist in WMP, it worked.
This problem is pretty complicated since it works for coreplayer...
Maybe just some code which is not used in coreplayer, but used in WMP, was corrupt.
Have you tried making new playlists?

I just formatted the SDHC card, and am now re-syncing everything. I've created a new smaller playlist and will try that out when its done.
I did edit one of the larger playlists down to about 20 songs before I formatted, and that opened fine.
What I really don't get is why this worked last week on my WinMo 6.1 Touch Pro. Same card, same files.
Pretty weird. But I can't help you any further.
I'm finished putting all my songs and playlists back now. The same thing is happening though.
I added a top 50 playlist, and that works fine. It's as if there is some limit that causes wmp to crash. But the same playlists worked on my non-updated Touch Pro.
I can't figure this out . I've tried everything I can think of. Reformatted the card and hard-reset the phone. Any player other than Windows media player than I've tried opens the playlists fine. Windows media player opens all music fine, and the smaller Top 50 playlist, but crashes on the others.
I much prefer wmp because of its ability to search the now playing list so well, aswell as the A2DP controls working while sense is enabled.
I wish I could get this fixed...

Media Player 10 Probs

Hi folks,
I've been trying a couple of ROMs to breathe new life into my old Tornado Noble, but have run into a problem with Media Player 10. Same issue on WM6 Platinum SP1 and Gregory's 6.5.
Some music tracks just will not play. I used the desktop media player to sync them (all mp3) with no issues, i've tried re-coding them to 128Kbps, and copying them over, but the same tracks just give an error. They play fine on all the PPC versions of media player mobile, just not on this smartphone version.
Any ideas?
Thanks for any pointers!
*I re-coded to WMA128k and everything plays, which i'll use as a workaround. But, i'd still like to find out why MP10 has difficulties with some mp3s and not others (same album).

perhaps it is because the source filter for WMP was not loading properly! you try it with this application, maybe it can fix and do too little change in the registry like this -> [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\ UIPlugins\{D7D08B8C-E755-4fa9-8E79-139FA379E00E}]
"FriendlyName"="HTC WMP Control Plug-in"
"Description"="HTC WMP Control Plug-in"
"Capabilities"=dword:0 --> change it to = 1
after that soft reset your device....
Thanks for the effort Hakim, but that didn't help. WMP just seems determined not to like mp3s.

Really? then you should try to use the application free MP3/MP4/M4A/AAC/WMA/WAV/M3U/PLS/ASX v0.83 S2P player. It simply lets you browse your music files play &. It is fully integrated with S2U2; & supports A2DP AVRCP &.
go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=556885 to get it
Not sure if S2P (Slide to Play) will work on a smartphone without touchscreen. You may wish wish to check out tcpmp as well. Commercial products are also Coreplayer or PocketPlayer.
There may also be something weird with these special MP3 that don't work. Can you find anything in common for those that do not work? Lookup some mp3 checker program with Google. You could also upload a faulty track here (or at mediafire or alike) so we can check that with our devices/ROMs?
