I have posted this in general as I suspect it applies to other phones as well.
My HTC Rose can record videos in wither MP4 or H.263 format and for this, it works.
But when I download these files onto my desktop PC, I am having trouble finding a video player that will play back video AND SOUND.
VLC (which normally supports anything) does not support the samr codec. Windows Media player can't even play Video.
Now to date the only thing I can find that plays these things is Quicktime player from Apple but this is one piece of software I really don't want on my PC so what is everybody else using out there to play the video files they take on their phones?
Thanks
Hy,
do you have testet ffplay or mplayer on your desktop pc?
Greatz
Is there any reason why I can't find any players that can stream media from my server?
UPnP is a rather well known standard, isn't it?
Hi mate,
Use PocketPlayer from Conduits. Google search. It has a plugin for UPNP. Works Perfectly, though I couldn't get video streaming to work but great for audio.
Hope that helps
I'm loving the baked-in HTC Media Share app in the 3.0 ROMS! All of my media files stream through the blu-ray player, but some of the videos come through with no audio. The file type is the same, 3gp, between the ones where the audio plays and the ones that don't. And its always the same videos that don't have sound, so I'm a little stumped. All videos play fine on the phone and PC as well.
Has anyone else had this issue? I've tried the iMedia Share app from the Market with the same results.
What possible solutions are there for streaming content whether it music or video from a PC to the htc Sensation, i have a lot of movie content and would like it if i could choose video files and play them (stream) so i dont have to download it to the sd card via USB.
Thanks.
I use VLC Stream & Convert, VLC Direct seemed to be very choppy when I played avi's from my PC.
You open VLC on your computer and add a Web Interface for it to work.
The buildin video stream player worked out of the box with my home NAS. I can stream 720p avi's over wifi. All I needed was ES File Explorer for access to NAS.
That is using standard UPnP protocols I think, so it should work with your windows media centre. You will have to enable sharing of your files and actually point the WMC to the folders that you want to share.
Try it and report back,

PS: if you have lots of MKV files, I'm still looking for streaming options...
Thanks for the info, using es explorer did just what i needed, it does play choppy like you said but i think its to do with the player and not with the connection. I am able to play high quality blu ray files 10-20gb but its even more slower so will need to find a better video player i would say...
Whats the best video player out there ??
we need vlc for android
Hi,
I have setup the digitel media streaming on a Windows Media Player on Laptop with Windows 7(WMP Network Svc(Windows 7 Media Player Network Sharing Service (wmpnetwk)) to let other devices on the same wireless network to access media streaming. I have installed AnDLNA player on Android mobile to receive the Media Streaming. And also, I installed the latest of MX player since the AnDLNA client player couldn't read the vidoes files which is listed in it.
WMP is working as remote server on which digitel media are saved
AnDLNA is functioning as Client Player which will access the digitel media streaming on Windows Media Player which is functioning as server. When running any video in the AnDLNA client player, then I am prompted as to which player I should use, then I choose 'MX player'.
MX player played all video formats, except 'FLV' video format, although it is the latest version.
.
Although I have read on the top of the forum, this Discuss MX Player, the versatile media player for Android, capable of playing most types of video formats.
However, my problem is that when I have running FLV files, I don't find that MX player recognises them.
I hope that made my thread clear.
Any suggetions would be highly appreicated.
Could anyone please reply to me to finish this pending problem?
a) do these FLV files play properly in MX if you copy them to the device?
b) SW, HW, or HW+ mode?
c) What ROM?

Thank you so much indeed.
Yes, MX player can play the FLV files if they are copied to my device. However, I am accessing file via a WMP Network Svc(Windows 7 Media Player Network Sharing Service (wmpnetwk)) If I want to copy them to my device, then this would need about 80GB of Memory card on my device.
As said before that I am using AnDLNA client to access the video files shared on the Windows Media player on my Laptop. And once the files are listed on the AnDLNA client, then when I cliced on any video files, I was prompted as to which player can play this file, then I chose MX player.
Can I install any Video codecs for supporting FLV video format on MX player on my device. I know there are codecs available but the developer says you shouldn't need a codec unless the player asks for one on startup.
I hope you understand me.
