I am looking for an application that will show visualizations on my uni screen when I’m playing mp3s, similar to window music player on my notebook. I have installed and uninstalled a few applications as none that i can find seem to do it. Would be very grateful for any help with this.
s2p is a good one, finger friendly and it can show you the album and more
I like it, do a serach for it
Hope it helps,
thank you for a very speedy reply, have found the cab, about to give it a whirl. unfortunately i didn't work correctly it installed but displayed in permanent portrait mode and there was no option to change it, secondly it froze and i had to do a soft reset to close it. So i uninstalled and got a copy of Conduits Pocket Player seems to be exactly what i was looking for, thanks once more for your help.

Hello everybody,
i just developed a little plugin für the Windows Media Player (10) wich kills one the biggest disadvantages of the Windows Media Player, the missing resume function.
My plugin saves the state when you press "pause" and reloads the state when you start the Media Player again.
If there is anybody interested in, i would try to upload the files.....
I tried it on WM6, but it SHOULD work on WM5 too.....
Greets,
Thomas
would be great wolfman.. i'd try it if you happen to post it
Great idea! Would you be so kind to post it please?
The files
Ok, here are the files.
The archive consists of two files:
resumePlugin2.dll - the Plugin
regPlugin.exe - exe to reg the Plugin
Just copy the two files in a directory on the device, then execute the
regPlugin file. After that the plugin should be active. I´ve tested it only on my device and i give no warranty that it will work! If there are any problems just delete the reg-Key \HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\UIPlugins\{71D48166..........}.
The plugin saves the playlist and the resume-position in a file named "resume.pl" located in the root directory of the device every time you press the "pause" button in the media player. When you exit the player it will reload the playlist and the resume position the next time when you start the player and start playback. The resumePlugin will not affect the VoiceCommand functionality.
I would welcome any feedback.
Greet,
Thomas
Thanks! Greatly appreciated, and great work!
nice work. works well with my jasjar running jwright wm5.
how about equaliser plugin?
thanks
It looks like it works but only the first time...
I installed it and ran windows media player. Set pause and waited until it went to sleep. Turned it on and there it was, my playlist as I left it.
But the next time it would forget! Next time it works, next it doesn't. Or sometimes it looks like it is randomly working...
Using official XDA EXEC ROM (latest) with WM5...
Thank you anyway for your time and effort in developing this... nice idea! It is the most annoying thing for me with WMP, the second is the playlist management itself, wish it was more like mortPlayer, wouldn't you happen to have a plugin that fixes or adds functionality to the WMP playlist?
excellent little app. a couple of suggestions, perhaps it would be better if it did not begin playing automatically on resume, but rather started paused. also perhaps if it would save on close rather than on pause (it seems more logical and it seems to me that the app leangthens the pause time by a second or two).
i don't mean to sound critical (i don't know the first little thing about programing, so i fully respect your creation) just my little two sense.
Great plugin. I wish I had found this sooner.
One note though, in order to install it, I had to run the exe from the root level directory. I originally tried it from the program files folder and it did not work. So the dll sits in my root level folder.
i'm looking for a good mp3-player such as HTC Audio Manager, which I enjoyed on my Kaiser
unfortunately HTC forgot to install it on Diamonds and Touch Pros, so I tried the Windows Media Player, which ****ing SUCKS
no sorting in playlist and library, very small buttons and really aweful at all
the CorePlayer/TCPMP is a cool player, but has no library for sorting genres etc.
its buttons are too small as well imo
well, I tried to install the originally HTC Audio Manager (qvga), but it doesnt start - the taskbar shortly changes to "load rc fail" and nothing happens
so I installed Audio Manager VGA which I found around here, but the .exe doesnt work as well because of an error message about an unsigned security certificate
I even get this message, although I disabled the security policy in my Touch Pro's registry to ignore those warnings
I'd really like to get the HTC Audio Manager on my Touch Pro, but if you'll tell me, theres no possibility, it would be nice if theres another similar cool player which you suggest
Whats wrong with the built in player integrated with TF3D? If you select the left option and open the library you get all of the options like the old Audio Manager Program and the same functionlity just a modefied look to it. You can even use the "scroll wheel" thing to advance your songs time and other "iPod" like features similar to the old Audio Manager.
While I liked the old audio manager and the way it worked I like having it built into TF3D so I dont have to load anything to play my music, its already there, playlists and all.
It did take a little getting used to since they redid the UI but it works just a well for me.
I think PocketPlayer is what you are looking for.
HTH
i dont like to use the TF3D, so I disabled it
much thanks to DeepThought, the PocketPlayer is really nice!

Ah, makes sense, Pocket player is a good alternative, forgot about that one
Breaking news!:
Well, I never gave up, so I kept investigating how to use Pocket Player with E100/W100 RC and know what? Now all keys works wonderful without a glitch, but only if the the E100/W100 device is linked to Windows MediaPlayer, here's how:
1.Install Attached MP_HTCWMPPlug_061031.CAB
2.Install PocketMusic
3.Install Conduits WMP Plugin Adapter (get it in Conduits webpage)
4.Inside Pocket Player, go to Options - Plugins, enter Configure WM Adapter, and check "Close WMP before loading" and "Intercept/Override WMP", also check "HTC WMP Control Plugin", checking both workarounds inside seems to do nothing so I kept them unchecked.
5. Close/Reopen App
That's it, all keys work now, remember if your default player is HTC Audiomanager, you must first need to change it to Windows MediaPlayer (use AdvancedConfig or your favorite tool).
I've tried also Coreplayer, but the plugin system is not well implemented, it tries to work, but fails, let's hope CoreCodec fix it.
There are other players that support WM Plugins, I'll try to test them, share your experiences.
If you use WM6.5, you might need to change Windows Media Player to an earlier version that supports E100/W100.
I've tested it in several ROMs, works fine.
Note: For user of other platforms that use E100/W100 RC, this solution should also work for you.
Link to a Windows Media Player that support E100/W100 (for WinMo6.5):

Great work so far.
I installed your cab. I am using MORT PLAYER and what should I say....
following buttons are working now:
play/paused
forward/backward
green/red phone button
not working
volume
Thats for me nearly perfect
Just to be in the clear, this is for PocketMusic of PocketMinds and not for Pocket Player of Conduits?
*edit: apparently it was for Pocket Player of conduits
now i have 1 small problem, i have Touch Pro2 and it seems i can't change the default audio player =\
*edit 2: that was not necessary apparently
nice work, will be using this one asap.. again great find mate!
I'm using HTC Touch Diamond 2 (Topaz) with WM 6.1.
Volume Control with RC E100 on Pocket Player does not work! By pressing the butten nothing happens (good news is, WMP does not opens, but volume can not be controlled by PP, too).
Any additional settings I have to consider?
C. Paul
Just tested this on a Touch Diamond and it works almost perfectly! the only problem is that when adjusting the volume, it wakes the screen up. a little annoying if the phone is in ya pocket. havent been able to find a way around this. suggestions anyone?
btw, very nice work Drakh for finding this one out. since HTC Audio manager doesnt support songs downloaded from iTunes I have had to use Coreplayer for listening to music from iTunes, well not anymore. and to think i was almost going to throw away my e100 cos it never worked in coreplayer. glad i didnt now
what does the cab exactly do?

Yes.
I experience the same problem with HTC Diamond 2.
Play/pause forward/backward work.
But volume control doesn't.
How do you change default player?

Great news, I've been looking for this! On my Nike, I've managed to install the tools and keep the HTC audio manager from starting when I press play/pause, but I still can't get the PocketPlayer to play or pause music.

I havn't found this setting anywhere, not in AdvancedConfig nor by registry search. Do you have any tips on where to look?

I too would like to know how to set the default player. Can't find the setting in AdvancedConfig.
Thanks in advance.
HTC Touch DIAMOND
Windows Mobile 6.5.1 (EnergyROM)
Conduit Pocket Player 4.0 & 4.1
Conduits WMP Plugin Adapter 2.31
_______________________________
none of the buttons work, any press still opens WMP.
what version of WM and WMP Plugin Adapter did you use?
any new on this, i'm trying to make it work with CorePlayer, but everytime i press play it just open Windows media player.
And i'm not sure where to change the default music player thing, i have been looking in Advanced Config and TouchPro Tweak without any luck.
Has anyone been able to configure the WMPlayer plugin for Conduits PocketPlayer? I can get to the configuration screen but every single one of the checkboxes is "locked" - i.e. they don't respond to being clicked. They're not greyed out, just completely unresponsive
???

Use virtual keyboard: up, down, Enter.
If I use the virtual keyboard the phone freezes which I press the space bar to "click" an item (requiring a reboot)

Same problem, if someone has the solution to make E100 work with CorePlayer ?
I don'i know if this helps anyone but I write it anyway...
I have just disabled HTC Audio Manager using Diamonf TF3D Config.
Whenever I want to use Pocket PLayer I need to first start it manually and as long as it is started I have no problems what-so-ever using the RC-W100 remote. If I close Pocket Player manually or restart the phone I need to restart Pocket Player...
Sorry to bump this but havent found the solution.
The e100 plays well with Pocket Player after installing the WMP plugins.
However, you need to start Pocket Player manually as the previous author posted too. If Pocket Player is not running and you press the PLAY button, then the Audio Manager starts.
Although it is not the biggest problem in the world, I'd like to know if there is a solution to it.
Probably making WMP default player over Audio Manager? (although .mp3 files open by default with Pocket Player)
Anyone that found a solution?
Why there is no interest in this Thread??
I can´t figure out why there is so little interest in this topic, I use the remote a lot, and still have not found any way to fully integrate with other appz but WMp and Manila Player. Whith the time I learned to love the HTC audio manager (Newest cookie home screen integrated) But now I can´t make my W100 to open the HTC audio manager it only controls WMP.
Please, we need the expert to pay some attention here.
Thanks
I agree - the remote is so (potentially) useful for listening to music when the phone is in a pocket etc, which I do alot.
Last night I tried to play a video on my phone with Coreplayer (v1.5) and whilst it used to work perfectly and play videos REALLY well, it was now awful quality. Was as if the settings for video had reset to default so I tried changing them (smoothing and GDI or Directdraw output) but it keeps making the program crash when I try this, or immediately afterwards.
I've reinstalled Coreplayer (tried 1.3 and 1.5) and it just keeps crashing when I change the output settings, except for once when it let me change them but was still very jerky video, and then it crashed anyway a couple of seconds later. This is using video files that HAVE played fine in the past.
I've removed S2U2 again and rebooted as I had just installed it the day before, then reinstalled Coreplayer again and still get the same issues. It just seems incapbale of playing video properly now for some reason. I know the settings that work well for it as I did have it working perfectly before, but it just crashes now if I try changing them.
I can't think of anything else that I've added recently which may cause this. Not sure what else to check but there must be something I've changed on the phone that's caused this?
Videos work well if I play them by double tapping them in Total Commander, but silly as it sounds I don't know what player this is using to play them! It's not wmp anyway.
Looks like an HTC player maybe but I can't find an actual video player in winmo apart from WMP. There must be a place in the start menu somewhere for this player but I can't find it. It's not in the Multimedia folder in the start menu either so I'm confused!
Annoying because I'm halfway through a film this morning and after going back to home screen, I now don't know how to resume playback without restarting and trying to find the place I was at.
Any ideas? I've looked at other coreplayer related threads but they all seem to be along the lines of just the output settings being wrong and I got no results when I searched for the words coreplayer & crash.
When did 1.5 release?!?! Let me check....
BTW, what ROM are you on? Cooked or Official??
Oops! Sorry, I meant to write 1.3.2 and 1.3.5!!!
My bad.
I'm using the 1.61 official turkish rom.
You sure it is 1.5? Can't find a hint anywhere!
Duh.. ok, try the 1.3.6 yet?
Thought I was the only one to see this problem, though it did occur with previous HTC devices and Coreplayer for me. Occasionally the database file (Application Data\Coreplayer\library.db) seems to get corrupted (I think when Coreplayer is running, you attach the device to a PC in USB disk mode and say yes to a prompted database rebuild). If you delete the library.db file with File Explorer or an equivalent program. it should rebuild it OK. Quite annoyingly, this file doesn't get deleted when Coreplayer is uninstalled, so an uninstall/reinstall doesn't resolve this.
Hi, i have posted this post in another xda forum, but i think it would be better to post it here:
I have installed
- TCPMP-0.72RC1-GF5500Edition-Alpha4
with the subtitle plugin
- SUBS054
I can load a subtitle-file of the type .SMI or .SRT and play it in windowed mode and see the subtitles but they are playing at the top of the screen backwards and mirrored or something. Its very hard to see what it says.
If i go into landscape-mode it gives me and error when there comes a subtitle-line and closes program.
I will attach the program and the subtitle plugin.
Thx, Qwak
Tcpmc with subs and nice skin
Here a cab for you... just try it....
Problem solved
Hi, thanks for the program, it looks way better than the other TCPMP player i had.
And now the subtitle-problem is solved, not because of the new program though, just because i was sitting and tried some different things.
I was about to write this VERY long post about what to do and what i had done, and i was almost done after about 25 mins i think, when i suddently started thinking: maybe its just the videofile thats not compatible, so i tried another videofile with the same subtitles and it worked perfectly!!!!
The incompatible videofile was a .WMV which i had compressed with windows movie maker. Since that doesnt work, i would like to find a good videocompressor cause theres not enough space on my MS... properbly just gonna buy a new one, but if anybody knows a good videocompressor for free, please post here!!
Thx Qwak
