For people having problems to download this file: Try another browser instead of Internet Explorer.
I could download it with Firefox, but when I tried to download it at a friends place with IE, it failed.
So I tried it at home with IE, also problems.
Tried it again with Firefox: No problem

have no problem downloading it with IE7..
you should ditch firefox. its the most sucky browser there is.. go check Opera if you insist on having a better browser as this is the only one better then IE7.

I hope you're joking! IE7 is terrible. Firefox is vastly superior and can be customised nicely! Opera is great on the PC (Not a huge fan of it on the PPC though); If you want speed, Safari is what you need!
Regarding the Dixv player, there is a slightly newer version available HERE

I just tried this out and was very surprised to note that it played a full size 700 mb movie as well as Coreplayer with "QTV Display". I was only expecting it to be as good as "directdraw" on coreplayer, slow and jittery.
Has anyone tried this program with the TV Out cable? I wonder if it would still have the blue flicker reported when using Coreplayer and TV Out.

Great, I hope it works. Based on the reviews on Coreplayer and it's TV Out, I'd kind of lost hope on video performance for this phone.

I installed it and got a message that it is outdated and go to mobile.divx.com to get the updated player. The problem is that it requires a login and gives no option to "join". How can I get the updated player??

I have a TV-out cable, and I can confirm that the Divx player doesn't have any blue flicker like Coreplayer.

i dl'd the file and it said i installed the wrong file even though i installed the right cab file.

Thanks Guys,
I think the link should have been Here instead.
How long does it run for before it expires?

Awesome. Can someone confirm the video quality over TV Out with this program? The two questions I have specifically are the following: Does the processor slow down any further when exporting via tv out - or does the tv out hardware take over? Also - when exporting to a widescreen tv, does the image stretch to the right aspect ratio, or does it only get wide making the image look fat?

Sorry P0ll0L0c0 unable to confirm TV Out performance as I don't have a cable, I can confirm that the app's not bad, it does however reset your backlight settings to 5 mins on battery and 10 mins on power but forgets to return them to original settings on exit.
Other than that, good work.
D.

got my pro and the tv-out cable today.
from what i can say is that the divx player sucks big time
coreplayer is the one to go for. but yes, i also have that blue flickering when using qtv. any fix for it already? still using the o2 stock rom if that matters.

I guess it must depend on the file. I've got a 700 mb copy of Hellboy that plays just as good on the divx player when compared to coreplayer using qtv. Since qtv doesn't work with tv out due to the blue flicker, the divx player has the advantage in my opinion.
I'm now tempted to buy a tv out cable to see how good output will be - but I think they're overpriced right now.

The Divx player stutters with every avi file I've tried on my device. Core player on QTV setting is by far the best (although you get the blue flicker on TV-Out). It's not too bad on the Direct Draw setting when using TV-Out, watchable.
Hopefully the next release of Core Player will solve this issue.

Guys I just chimed in on this thread. I just got my 8gig card and now I want to try out a movie on my phone. I have the latest version of TCPMP installed on my phone. Should I go with the Coreplayer you guys have been talking about on this thread? Also I don't understand what you guys were talking about in using the tv out input etc... I am switching from a Palm Treo to the Pro and I am trying to use this phone for all it's worth. Please help me. Thanks!!!!

seems like u can either use coreplayer or the divx player on our devices. There is just a conflict weather it works with our phones TV/out. (Our phones can output video to a TV with a special cable)
im interested in this. Installing the divx player now to test some 700mb movies.

TCPMP for HTC Pure?

I cannot find a working copy of TCPMP for my HTC Pure. I tried using the one from my Fuze (VGA) which will not work with the Pure (WVGA). Can someone please help with a media player that works with WVGA screen that is free like TCPMP? Thanks!

What version did you use? Try using another one I have had no problems with TCPMP.

It was version 0.72 RC1
I deleted that cab, which I used for a long time, and downloaded a new one from the forum and it seems to work now. I don't know what the malfunction was.

It's something with WVGA and DirectDraw if I remember right, you have to set video mode to RawBuffer to get the video to work. RawBuffer looks like **** anyway so I either use CorePlayer to play non-encoded videos or the in-built media player which play encoded .mp4 videos beautifuly.

Download 0.71 RC from here...

I couldn't originally use 0.72 as it crashed every time I ran it. That version worked a treat, but I've since shelled out for CorePlayer and that really is VERY good. Worth the money, in my opinion.

is there any way to run subtitles with coreplayer? or any other? divx mobile doesnt...and in my opinion isnt a good player..

endeed you have to buy it. It's not that expensive, but really efficient

CorePlayer costs $30.

What bugs me is that there is a Snapdragon accelerated version on the TG01, why the heck can't I have the option to buy that one? Apparently there is an update on the way, so I guess as a paid up customer I'll get the upgrade free,but still...

wuts wrong with Tcp and the 1.66 roms? the video shows weirdly.
divx mobile cant load frames fast enough for a family guy eposiode.

core player works great on htc hd2
looks great on htc hd2 small and full screen movie
if you have problem with coreplayer and you have sound but no picture set in tools,preferences,select pages,video output set on directdraw and problem its gone now you have picture and sound
have fun...

Headset used with Coreplayer
Hello ... is there any way to set the headset included with the HD2 to function with Coreplayer ? I mean, to use the move forward and move back key of the headset to go next and previous songs ...

coreplayer works fine for me on 1.66
just played an ep of scrubs

Yep, even though its not hardware accelerated it works fine for me also, occasionally choppy for a few secs here and there, thats what I think could be better with the accelerated version.

Sorry noob here. Which version of coreplayer should I get for HD2? I don't want to end up paying for the incorrect version.

To use hardware acceleration requires use of Qualcomm intellectual property, which Qualcomm guards jealously. The writers of CorePlayer have not purchased the rights to use this IP. Toshiba have; they hired the CorePlayer guys to make them a special version of Coreplayer for the TG01. If the CorePlayer guys were to distribute that they would get sued by Qualcomm, and possibly also by Toshiba.

Well I don't know whether you mean this, but I couldn't control Coreplayer through my Bluetooth headset. If so, just go to tools, settings, go to WMP UI plugins and tick all three options.
Hope that helps

HTC YouTube WVGA for TG01?

I have looked on these and other forums for a working cab of the htc youtube from the touch hd or the blackstone that works on the TG01 but haven't manage to find a working one. I installed the latest certs and htc framework but still cannot play video. It a shame as the quality of the videos is really good. I remember when I had my blackstone the quality on the wvga screen was fab on the tg01 is got to be smoother and better hey?
If someone has ported this can you be so kind to point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance guys

143 views and nobody can point me to a working version?
Please guys, google youtube is crap. Interface and quality are dreadful.
I have tried the touch hd it version but it doesnt even install. What are the things that I need?
Thanks all in advance

In CorePlayer theres YouTube supports, just change the setting to hight quality and you are set to go.

Hi, thanks for the reply. I know that, the version that I have of core player is the original one that comes with the rom. I have upgraded to the newer version but felt it was too slow and benchmarked a lot less that the original one. Unfortunatly the original version does not have the youtube feature working. I still think that the videos look a lot better and the UI is much nicer with the HTC version. I have tried the TP2 version but it doesn't work either. Do I need anything else installed apart from the HTC framework and the certs do you think? It all installs fine and shows the videos but when I try to play them it says that the videos cannot be played error. Again, thanks for replying.

I don't know what to say but omg. How did you get this ?!! I've been looking everywhere for a youtube app after trying MVU Mobile Browser and youtubeplayer. I looked on youtube and kept saying your device isn't supported (TG01). Google didn't return any results for any youtube native apps for windows mobile.
I've installed it and honestly didn't expect it to work, but it does! The only problem is though is that since youtube have updated their mobile website, the quality is much better than what is streamed on the native apps, such as the one I've just downloaded from your post. There doesn't appear to be a HQ button on the app so I guess it's streaming from 3GP.
Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for posting this. Hopefully, it will be a long while yet before Windows Mobile is actually abandoned, even though various sources state that development has come to an end for the platform.
BTW, Youtubeplayer doesn't work for me either, hence why I started to use MVU Mobile Browser as my youtube FLV downloader - playback still doesn't seem to work in coreplayer

Officially confirmed from COREPLAYER that Google has changed anything on Youtube and after that, COREPLAYER can't play Youtube videos. They say that next Coreplayer release will fix it (paying?? )
http://forum.corecodec.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=2746&p=11146&hilit=youtube+fails#p11146
I've downloaded the last official Youtube app for WM
Only avilable from the phone: http://m.youtube.com/app , and I also think that quality image has been improved, but not for all the videos (I can't understand why...). Besides, looks great on our big screen!!
So, I've just deleted youtubeplay from my device and perhaps Coreplayer will be the next, as I prefer TCPMP
(On the other hand if you have your own videos on Youtube, you can watch them easily with the new app. Not possible with Youtubeplay)

Thanks, and does youtube work on the lastest version? Cheers
P.S. I can't believe we have to pay to upgrade coreplayer!! Even though it comes free with the phone. I have a good mind not to bother to be honest because I'd rather support the developers here than let coreplayer have my money. Problem is though, it seems google keep changing the way video is streamed on their servers all the time, causing playback issues with our software.
