Hi there, on my HTC P3300 and my wifws Asus P320 we have used Coreplayer to watch youtube videos with good quality.
The last few days we get 'unknown file format' trying to open flv streams from yutube.. I have tried different settings but can't get it working again.
If I select RTSP, it works fine, but the video quality is no good.
Anybody knows what is wrong?
same here. and the tcpmp flash plugin isn't working either. which leads me to suspect that youtube may have changed their codec slightly? i dunno!
From the coreplayer forums:
"We are aware of this issue and are working on a fix to repair it,
Youtube changed the way it plays flv files and we will release
a version fix as soon as possible. "
Answer:
YT function on CP sucks!
I have only ever wanted to access youtube on my phone 2 or 3 times, usually when an upcoming film is mentioned in conversation and I want to have a look at the trailer. As coreplayer is software which is already on my phone, and it works ideally for this sort of usage, I for one hope that it is working again soon.

Hello all
After long search in this forum and in cruise's registry, I didn't find how to play video with tcpmp (instead WMP) in HTC Video Album.
TCPMP is correctly configured for play all media by default in my phone, (photo,music,video), since the explorer, by example. But not since HTC Video Album.
Someone could help me?
And I think it will be interesting for a lot of people!
THX a lot!
Bye
After one week of research, no solution...
possible fix
Hi,
I did the following with my device:
I opened the registry and browsed to HKLM\software\HTC\Biotouch\MediaHubMini\App1_3\ and edit Path. Insert the following value if you have an English device: \storage card\program files\tcpmp\player.exe
If you have a different langauge device you should replace the \storage card\ with the name of your card.
N.B. This only works if you installed TCPMP player with the default settings on the storage card.

Good suggestion, however this only gets you to open TCPMP through the cube "Videos" icon, not within HTC Album as requested by ZueBug - I think ZueBug meant that he wants to be able to click on a video from within the HTC Album UI and then have it call up TCPMP to play the video instead of WMP. This would be great since the HTC Album has a much better UI as compared with TCPMP for browsing through your video collection. I started a thread on this issue a while back, however no one has come up with a solution as yet.
Better yet, i don't even see any videos in HTCAlbum. That's why i changed the Video button in the cube. I wouldn't be able to view any videos, now i am. So for me it's a win-win situation.
But after reading your post i assume you CAN see videos in HTCAlbum?
TCPMP is my default music and video player. But my problem is: how to make TCPMP default player in HTC album!
THX!
Touch settings
Use Carlosp touch settings v 2.2 .
Works almost perfect for mine Cruise , except a message at the opening.
For wich I'm still waiting for a solution.
If you read my first post in this topic you'd have your solution to PCPMP player being defautl in the cube. But i guess reading is hard these days...

Yes, videos are viewable in HTC Album for me after clicking on the Videos button in the cube. Apparently though, it only recognizes videos in MP4 format. Any videos in AVI format are ignored when placed in the folder from which HTC Album reads. I guess HTC Album was really designed specifically for the videos taken by the on-board camera and nothing else. So I assume this is why you can't see any videos - your collection is not in MP4 format, correct?
As a test, I converted an AVI clip to MP4 and, low and behold, it was recognized in HTC Album. However, I am not about to get started converting my whole video library to MP4 anytime soon!
Well, the fun part is, all video i have is made by the Polaris. So either the HTCalbum sucks balls, or there's something wrong with my ROM.

That is weird! Here is my rom info if it helps:
ROM Version: 1.25.405.1 WWE
ROM Date: 12/11/07
Radio Verision: 1.58.21.23
Protocol Version: 25.65.30.04H
Anyone else with my rom version able to confirm my findings? Anyone with NeoS2007's rom version able to confirm his findings?
THX for all, but my problem is still not solved...
(not possible to find the solution to play video with tcpmp or another soft since HTC video album, not f..... WMP... )
And NeoS2007 stop to talk if understanding (and reading!!!) my problem is hard these days...
I launch TCPMP from the cube.It's my default multimedia player.But when I'm in HTC album, videos are played in WMP. Voila le problème...
A lot of movies are coming out with digital copies & they are all in WMV format but our players don't support it.
I tried searching but all I found was the plugin for TCPMP, which didn't work too well. Anyway I would like to know if there is a plugin for WMP on our phones? I have a few of these digital copies & I would like to put them on my storage card for those boring days at work. If anyone has a plugin or a solution, I would really appreciate it.
Where are the movies?? Anyways, CorePlayer should play them, about $25 directly from CoreCodec, which should be cheap for you judging by your avatar !
What are you talking about? Windows Media Player plays WMV files. it's already on your phone.

Talking about certain codecs not included in WMP, so you need a different player. Most videos can't be played through WMP.
Thanks for the reply. I was hoping to not have to buy anything new but you gotta do what you gotta do. Anyway, a new question... if I buy this coreplayer will it do everything tcpmp does or do I have to keep tcpmp on my Kaiser?
As far as the movies... I have Juno & AVPr right now but a lot of movies come with an extra disc right now that you can download it from... Look for it on the cover, it says digital copy right on it

Cool, I have to check out my friend's DVD collection . Anyways, CorePlayer does all the main functions of TCPMP, but a bit better, and I personally like the looks of it better. It has the YouTube function built-in, but currently you have a limited number of results, so if your looking for a specific video, you must type a lot. I use CorePlayer as my main video player, and still keep TCPMP with the FLV bundle to watch video directly from the web.

Sweet I been reading up on it since you suggested it & I'm sold on it now. Thanks I hope it plays these movies. I'll let you know as soon as I got it all set up
WACK!!! Same thing as tcpmp... Granted, it looks better but its the same outcome. The video will start but it won't play. It starts loading & then it stays like that forever. Occassionally it plays a clip of the sound but only a fraction of a second
Any tips for the settings to change Champ?
How can I make youtube/flash videos open up in TCPMP instead of WMP. I have the setting on TCPMP to open flash/flv files but it still does not WMP is currently giving me an error because I installed and uninstalled some plugs ins that cause some issues for WMP. Plus TCPMP give me better quality video thank you.
Did you install the FlashVideoBundle Drivers for TCPMP?

yes I did. Youtube(mobile with opera 9.5 diamond build) use to open with tcpmp but once I moved to wm 6.1(official rom) it started to open in WMP. Then after installing the 3g2 and other codec plug in for wmp it stop working, even after uninstalling it. And yes I read that page twice.
everytime I try to play a youtube video with wmp it says there is a source error. Anyway to fix this issue?

For starters, WMP doesn't support those file types. So, make sure you have installed the FLV bundle to the same location as TCPMP, and make sure .flv is an associated file with TCPMP. As mentioned above, this has been a very popular subject, so be sure to search for this. Playing youtube videos is probably the easiest thing to achieve these days, it is very simple.
I don't think you understand. I can play youtube files fine with I.E. and tcpmp. However, with Opera 9.5 and youtube mobile pages which they don't work well anymore. I was able in the past to get it to work before. The opera would open the files up in WMP and play them. But once I installed these plugins for wmp http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=366471 WMP stopped playing it citing a source error. So I uninstalled the files and still the same issue still citing a source error.
So, what I want to know now is how to make opera open the files up in TCPMP like I.E. does, or maybe even get to work in WMP again. Thank you.
anyone have both WMP 6 and 6.1 defualt codec dll and such?
Ok, didn't know you were trying to open through Opera. If uninstalling doesn't work, you prob need to hard reset, considering you altered the system file, and the uninstallation didn't revert it back to normal. I'm not even sure Opera will open a YouTube video in TCPMP. I believe it is coded to open out of PIE. I only use PIE for YouTube really, just use ytpocket.com. Makes browsing YouTube quicker and easier. Also, the vids you were plaing before in WMP are low quality .3GP files.
really? I was wondering why the quality was terrible when compared to TCPMP. Well on that subject I some how just lost .3gp support on my device also. The 3gp file my camera phone records won't play on wmp, and plays on tcpmp but with audio errors(I installed the plugin to get the camera phone videos to work with WMP again).
anyone please?
can you make opera mini open youtube files with TCPMP like it does with IE and flash bundle?
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:

Hi,
I have suddenly encountered the problem. I can search for videos but when I open the video to watch, at first I get the YouTube logo top bar in the player, and the "Loading" symbol, but these disappear after 3-4 seconds and nothing happens. I tried this on many videos. I haven't touched the settings on the player, and until a week ago I was watching YouTube videos without any problems.
Any ideas what can be wrong?
I have the same problem.At first i thought i did something wrong.I reinstalled application,then afterwards i even had a change of Rom and windows 6,5 reinstalled,then installed 1.3.6 version,nothing does not work on youtube.
Maybe youtube changed something?Should i send an email to the creators of the program?I am a registered user of it.
It is annoying as i would want to view youtube with my mobile.
Ya! My coreplayer cannot play the videos on youtube too. It displays sth like FFFFFFF(error code).Can sbd help us?
It's YouTube's fault. They are again changing something about the way their videos are encoded. No idea why.
The guy who created mVu Mobile Viewer - bik2000 - said so, when I asked him why I was unable to play YouTube videos from his program (which launches CorePlayer anyway).
I guess/hope that when the change YouTube are doing is final, CorePlayer will be released in a new version, which will once again be able to play the videos. Till then, the only option is to first download the video, then play it in CorePlayer or TCPMP.

Is there a way to download the the video from YouTube on the PPC? On the PC I use YouTube downloader (who also released a new version lately to cope with the recent changes in YouTube).
Thanks.

Cool app thanks
Well, until the CorePlayer issue is resolved, I'm using YouTube application to watch youtube vids on my PPC. I'm finding it very neat and I love it even more than CorePlayer.
This is how you get it:
From PIE (not from NetFront Browser or Opera).
Go to: m.youtube.com/app
Wait a moment and the .CAB download will start.
Install and enjoy.
I tried going to the link using NetFront Browser 4.0 and Opera 10 and I was directed to a page that says my device is not supported. So it seems you only have to use pocket IE to download the application.
