Ok, this is going to sound very strange, but does anyone have an isolated CAB for just the TouchFlo Media Player? I would like to launch this outside of TouchFlo (since it's such a memory hog) as my media player. I love the flick-skip and easy organization that this particular player offers. So if someone knows of some way to launch it outside of TF, please be so kind as to reply...
If not, does someone know of something else that would play WMA DRM material that offers the flick-skip and better finger control. So far I have tried Nitrogen, Media Center for WinMo, Kinoma, and a few others that weren't compatible.
Thanks!

I want to be able to play ogg files in media player on my XDAIIi, is this possible? If not, then I see there are a plethora of media players out there, Which would be most similar to media player to use?
Thanks,
Allan
ps I want ogg support as I believe it is the best quality codec for small files, please let me know if anyone has any opinions on this? or better codecs?
http://tcpmp.corecodec.org/about
is the player that most people like
not 100% sure but i dont think mediaplayer from ms on pocketpc can use external codecs
it only really likes ms's own formats and then it does mp3 too but otherwise it's pretty poor supportwise
The old BetaPlayer as it was known back then is great features wise, but not very slick.
I think that PocketMusic is a great alternative, or perhaps at least for BP to be used as well as a commercial program.
The Bundle version of PM plays OGG files as well, amongst others.

Does anyone know of any tweaks/ hacks/ xda-developers working on adding an auto-resume or a bookmarking option on top of Windows Media Player? Is this really hard to do? I'm surprised no one has worked on something like that yet.
Also, are there any free/ low resource-intensive media player applications that can play DRM-protected WMA files? My problem is a basic one: Conduits Pocket Player and some of the other "robust" media players are too much for me. They have more features than I ever use, and are way too resource-intensive for my little Wizard. I'm just trying to listen to audiobooks on my Wizard while working out, and hate having to locate my spot every time.
Thanks much for any help/ guidance/ suggestions.
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.
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?
Hey,
I'm looking for a music player for my HD (so has to suggest WVGA) but I have quite a few needs so would be helpful.
If possible I would like it to have it's own independant volume setting outside of the Windows sound management (so I can leave it muted but still listern).
User interface is important to me, WMP would be great but the icons are small and I dislike having to press 'Play' after selecting a track.
If it works with 6.5's home screen that would be fantastic, I'm really enjoying it so any player that uses it would be a God-send.
Shuffle needs to be decent, I've had too many application only shuffle and play half my music, senseless programs.
Lastly it needs to NOT stutter when I use 6.5 lock. WMP does that and it drives me mad.
Note that I've tested: MortPlayer, PocketPlayer, WMP and have disliked all of them.
Any ideas?
If there is a problem can a mod pelase move this to another section if needed.
Try
Coreplayer or TCPM
Thanks anymore, I'm flexible . Is there a better place to post this?
Come on there must be more suggestions? Otherwise I'll post this in the development thread.
try gsplayer.
Any other suggestion, I use Coreplayer for videos and it's good. GSPlayer doesn't look very nice at all!
