Help....
questions from a newb. Have a samsung epix and cannot install any media player skins. have had a treo 750 previously and was able to install skins on media player ok. I load the entire skin folder into the windows media player program folder, but when I go into the options menu in media player it will not find the skins I installed. It only finds the default player skin and the samsung skin. If I go to file explorer and look in media player folder, all the skin files and folders are there. Is this and win mo 6.0 vs win mo 6.1 issue, or am I just not doing something correctly???
Any help is appreciated, windows media player buttons are too small to operate!!!
i think its because of the screen maybe, its 320x320 and its incompatible with alot of things

Have you tried using HTC Home Customizer to obtain this effect?
Need HTC customizer
dharvey4651 where can I get the HTC customizer, I tried the link in the Blackdiamond thread but it does not work. Thanks
htc home customizer..
yes i tried the customizer.. but it only shows htc audio manager and windows media player..
i have core player and morthplayer and both of them don't show up...
Hmmm... Have you checked the registry and played around with that? It might be possible to change the default Media Player through the registry
registry edit
well i am not very familiar with the registry.. however i learned from one of the threads that i could change the string value on the registry to change default player.. but only 0 and 1 makes a difference again switching from audio manager to windows media player... tried other digits.. but don't seem to work..
please help me!!
the commands and paths calling the media player application is embedded within the mediahub.exe (the file responsible for the media face of cube and calling the media player from the plugin)..
unless you decompile the exe and hexedit the values/path.. you will be stuck with Audio manager or WMP...
there's a walk around though.. look for VJbrisk (google it: try VJBrisk vijay555 as querry).. rename the installed EXE as AudioManager.exe then copy-paste it on the \Windows Directory (don't forget to rename the original AudioManager.exe in the windows directory before pasting).. then grab a shortcut of CorePlayer or MortPlayer, rename it as target.lnk and paste it in the \windows directory..
that's the hard way to do it..

no.. only launch the coreplayer (or any other app).. but playback control is not possible (Coreplayer doesn't handle command line controls)..
What about Mortplayer, will this method work with it?
I have Att Fuze(touch pro)
with Coreplayer where i can use the Pad to click forward on movie Videos
like a que forward while watching movies
Was wondering can we Set it on Volume to forward Video ?
Cos will get a phone which doesnt have the Dpad

In case anybody still wanted to pursue this...
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...

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?
Sorry if this has already been covered but i couldn't find an answer anywhere on the net. I am totally unable to change the default skin in windows mobile media player 10. I have tried putting the files in these locations:
device/program files/windows media player
device/program files/windows media player/skins
I have even tried leaving the files in the folder (after unzipping):
device/program files/windows media player/Poorlyduck WM m2d Black
device/program files/windows media player/skins//Poorlyduck WM m2d Black
Yet when going to the skin chooser screen all i get is the default portrait and the previous/next button are greyed out. I have tried various skins not just the example above.
I am using an AT&T Fuze, WM 6.1, touchflo enabled and no custom rom or major tweaks. I have removed the touchflo media player from my tabs though with diamond config.
Any help is appreciated.
oops sorry its media player 11 my bad.
Hey all
Due to an issue with build-in manilla media player (it stops after few moments of playing music) I'm stuck with WMP. I've been trying to find some finger friendly skins for it. Found some, but I'm unable to install them Tried to copy/paste files into program files/mindows media folder, but player does not see them Any ideas? Any beginner guide to installing skins or good source for skins will be much appreciated!
Thanks

Make sure all your music that you're playing from the HTC music player is in a root folder
eg. Storage Card/Music
With no subfolders.

Hey Phaedrus Nine
Tried all that - All my music is in "music" folder on my memory card. It is organised into separate folders. Tried to put one folder with few files in root location of memory card. Same time I've put some loose files in "music folder. All files are availabe for play in media libary and every single one stops after few seconds (40s max) Also before u ask - yes, followed few threads saying that it has something to do with mp3 tags - changed all of them, but still same issue. Gave up, decided to stick to WMP. The only thing I want now is a new skin for it...
Did you put all of your music into one root folder? Not organised into different folders, but just one.
I had the same problem, plays fine in WMP but HTC Player kept stopping after about 4 seconds.
Edit:
I tried installing skins for WMP on my phone, couldn't get it to work. Copied files etc.. Did a little searching, but couldn't find anything. I think the skins have to be WVGA? I dunno. But if you go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=492220 there is a download to a nice WMP skin with a .cab installer.
But I do suggest just sticking all your music into into folder (no other folders whatsoever, just one) HTC player is better than WMP.
Do the skins replace the album/artist list screens in the library or only the 'Now Playing' screen?

Just the now playing screen.
Phaedrus Nine - thanks for link, skin works great - finally I can listen to my mp3's on my handset.
Yes, I agree that WMP is not the best, but at least works As for music and build-in manilla media player I've tried all combinations and still no success
I've tested the cab and it works perfect on my device!?
Running MediaPlayer 10.3 build 28014 on ROM 1.61.468.1 with Manila Core 2.5.19211619.0
You have to change the skin in MediaPlayer Options but I think you know that!!
Just noticed that skin works ok, but only in portrait mode when flipped to landscape standard blue skin is displayed Checked file manager and all files appear to be there (landscape and portrait). I'm all confused here...

I didn't try it in landscape, like I said before I don't really use WMP I just installed to see if it worked for the benefit of this thread. But I would suggest going to the original thread I linked to to see if your answer is there. I'd have a look but I've not much time at the minute

No worries, glad to help. I don't understand why your HTC music app isn't working. My folder is set to Storage Card/Music.... and thats it, I had to remove all subfolders in the music file and make sure it was the only place music was stored on my device. Then it worked fine.
Does anyone know how to get the landscape skins to appear in the options? Not even my default skin shows up for landscape, only portrate. I've checked the program files and they're all there, but not within WMP.
