Hi everyone
Got an o2 XDA2i and have never been able to get more than a minutes music play out of it before Windows Media Player freezes up. Surely there's a way of making this work? To say the XDA seems buggy is an understatement!
Thanks in advance.
Cliff
in every .mp3 .wmv u play or just specific one?
All of them. The player seems to go for about two tracks, maybe three, then it locks up. I tried an alternative media player and its doing the same thing.
hum...what OS do you have? Maybe u run out of memory? or somethin
Windows Mobile 2005. Tried increasing the memory allocation but no better. Beginning to drive me nuts
Because of things like that i downgraded my OS to 2k3SE W8 for opinion of someone else, im still a newbie here Or check buzzzdev forum
Thanks for your help anyway
Hi,
Anyone know of a better media player than windows or the one supplied on the phone?i`m looking for one that will go louder if possible.Or is there a way to make the phone volume go louder,and make my music player louder?.
cheers ,Neil
Look for CorePlayer. The best bet.
Try to search... There are tons of software like this.....
Try this One .its only a trial for 30 days .. will do the thing . wery good lots of functions, Shine look and bass boost (its reminds me winamp) i got it just while . but i prefer it . way better than wm player and audio manager ... If you find crackd version let me know Cheers
i am currently sitting on stock firmware and dont feel comfortable flashing my phone. I like that i can watch movies and videos on my device but windows media player is really laggy and jumps a lot. what other suggestions do you guys have for media players for 6.1 pro...
coreplayer is not free but its really great. plays divx better than divx player for wm. though it doesnt do tv out very well sadly. but its good enough to watch movies on my phone full framerate.
yea i have been looking at that. I just cant justify spending like 30 bucks for it. Thanks for the suggestion though.
roush611, consider for one moment getting comfortable flashing, it is very fun! I was very hesitant too but now I flash weekly!
On to your question...I wonder if S2P would remedy the issues you would are having? It uses WMP as it's 'engine' but maybe it would solve these issues.
Search for TCMP, free version of Core Player.
well i flashed my g1 and it was cool for a bit but then i could never get it back to stock fimware. So i dont really wanna mess with that again.
I tried to download TCMP but it just crashes everytime i open it... I am kinda at a loss.
You can try Kinoma play free version. It worked wonderfully on mine, and s2p was previously mentioned by someone. Nitrogen is another if the other 2 dont wor for you but kinoma imorts your media library while the other 2 dont.
The free version of kinoma play doesnt let you use the equalizer but it was never a problem for me because htc includeds audio booster with its phones.
You could try Pocket Player http://www.conduits.com/products/player/
I have only used it for podcast and audio myself but I'm very impressed with it. You should be able to download a 30 free trial version.
I've started a thread about this, but Pocket Player is probably the best player out there. However, every app that I've found does one thing really good, and another important thing really poorly. YMMV, though.
Search for "TCPMP Tech1 PRO7 Digital Play HD StandAlone Version.cab". It's really great. It does flash videos better than anything I've tried. I think the forum is everythingdiamond.info, or something like that. Read and follow the setup info.
I like the music player in Sense and I also quite like the look of S2P (although the lack of any treble and bass controls means it's a non-starter for me) but I'm looking for a decent alternative with a good finger-friendly UI. I have tried numerous other media players but hardly any have a suitable interface for non-stylus use. In these I include PocketPlayer and PocketTunes. I tried Nitrogen but for some reason the slightest adjustment on any of the frequencies results in distortion.
Any suggestions?
I'm just up to my neck in suggestions here!
I use on an everyday basis Pocketplayer from conduit. It's very good and full of options: podcast, equalizer, internet radio, media guide. It's not free but it worth it.
I tried that out but it's clearly designed for a stylus. It also didn't look right on 6.5.x and the bottom of it's window sat over the bottom toolbar. I was thinking more along the lines of a music application specific to the HD2 or suitable for WVGA capacitive devices at least.
I was looking at Nemo player on the Android. Something like that would be ideal.
I'd also like a good music player that has an ecxellent equalizer because the audiobooster keeps being buggy
I remember seeing something somewhere about SRS WOW or something like that, i don't know if that's just an equalizer or a media player, some clarification would be nice.
I would strongly recommend SRS WOW as an alternative to Audiobooster. This would allow you to use S2P (or any other stand alone player) and maintain high end equalization.

Why don't you try the finger-friendly version of TCPMP?

Worked great when I tried it on the floor model HD2 at T-Mobile.

I don't rate SRS WOW at all, I have used it previously on the HD2 and other Windows Mobile devices in times past. I'm quite an audiophile and, despite tinkering with it for hours, I couldn't get a sound I liked with it, eventually getting one frequency sounding good resulted in other frequencies becoming overpowering or near silent. I also think the 3d effect is ridiculous.
Without any hesitation... Kinoma Play
It's really the best music player. Sound quality is perfect and the interface is absolutely amazing.

It's a paying soft, but it's worth the price.

How is it's equalizer?
I tried Kinoma Player, it seems to be a jack of all trades master of none to me. It also looks a bit crap and blurry on the HD2 as they have no WVGA skins for it. Not overly impressed and not what I'm looking for.

This has no sense. You are saying that you are looking for a decent alternative with a good finger-friendly UI.
Obviously Kinoma has probably the most finger-friendly interface of all. You may not love it for some reasons but I'm pretty sure it's better than S2P for instance.
Very difficult to understand what you are looking for exactly. Finally I don(t understand the purpose of your thread. Just test all the audio players available on the market and chose the one you like. It does not deserve a specific thread. That's all mate.
I use Nitrogen
Hi there really interesting post!
I need a good player too, cause 70% of time spent with Hd2 is for play music
but it's difficult to find a serious and stable solution, they seem all to young software..
htc audiomanger
+beautiful and default
-no alphabet scrolling bar,difficult to import playlist without wmp11-12, it search for all mp3 on storage, ringtones too (solved with reg twaek)
Pocket Player
+the best in general,scrolling ,playlist,nowplaying,albumart.. (haven't tryed with 10 gigas jet)
-some bug-now fixed skin on 6.5.x-, i can't open my mediamonkey playlist after sync!!i'm trying to solve but.. damn. and waiting 4.2!
S2p
+overall, best free alternative, good extended options with S2U2, it read mediamonkey imported playlist with no problem
-false now playing list,too laggy interface on hd2..
Nitrogen
+so nice..
-but so young too , no playlist, buggy excution ...
Kinoma Play
+ it seems to have a really good a stable base system
- but music it's only part of too many services, already installed on hd2..
This is my experience, there are also other player but i think the upper are the best. The problem is that i still not have a definitive solution for mp3...
An mp3player must be able to import playlists from pc for me, i have too music and it's unusefull play all the imported tracks toghether..or recreating them manually on device..
Solving sync for PP playlist could be for me the perfect solution, but i 'm not finding ways ..I there someone that can help?
When i sync playlists with media monkey, it transfer playlists written with wrong addresses info. The player read welll all titles but when it try to open a track, PP search for playlist addresses with 'Storage Card\artist\album....' while the imported playlists from MM have just 'artist\album....' written in . Anyone experieced and solve that?

The purpose of the thread is obvious but I will point it out anyway for your benefit. I was hoping people would make suggestions regarding music players I hadn't used, for example you suggested Kinoma and I tried it out and found it to be wanting. Just because my opinion of it differs from yours it doesn't equate to it making no sense. You said it's interface was 'absolutely amazing'. I disagree with that.
Your comment on this not deserving a specific thread is somewhat unusual given the type of forum this is. Perhaps you would like to specify exactly what subjects deserve to have threads and what doesn't? I'd say this thread is perfectly valid for the reasons pointed out above.

What surprises me is that there seems to be no need for Bookmark or a similar function. I know that Pocketplayer has this option. For me that is certainly a must. As for the quality of playback whatever the player it will never be like a stereo set.
The most ideal for me is a mediaplayer what can play all the formats, music, video, photo and E-books. is completely configurable. Has an excellent equalizer and Bookmark function. But like all good things in life, they are not within reach

I find Pocket Player to be the best music player for WM. It was certainly not developed with finger friendliness in mind, but it can certainly be very easily used on the HD2. It has great features and despite some bugs (related to WM 6.5) it is certainly better than S2P (which I believe to be just an iPhone copy - I don't like that).
Hi All
Is there or is there not a Vlc player for the WM. I have read various forums and followed dead links and would like to know oce and for all does this exist or not and if so does anyone have a working link to the download the app.
Many thanks in advance
Is this is what you're looking for ?
http://portableapps.com/news/2010-02-01_-_vlc_media_player_portable_1.0.5
A.F.A.K there is no VLC the best freebee you will find is TCPMP or if you wish for the up to date version CorePlayer but costs money.
Hi guys
Thanks for the answers and link
I had a look at the portable apps but this is actually for windows 2000 and above, so I think stylez you are correct in saying that as yet the answer is no, but it would be nice if they did make a version, oh well maybe one day.
To bad I found the wrong stuff , thought it looked very promising.
I must say I agree with stylez , Coreplayer and tcpmp is without a doubt the best players for WinMo..
Anyway keep on searching , and maybe you'll find something about the vlc someday, but until then I suggest you use coreplayer
Mod edit:
Do not post warez/cracked software on this forum!
