Hello all,
I don't know if there is already a post concerning that.
After many hours of search, i found a version of TCPMP which is operationnal on HD2 !!!!
URL : http://portegeclub.ru/file/multimedia/TCPMP-0.72RC1-GF5500Edition-Alpha4-CAB.rar
IF you are like me, the first video was completly green .... so open TCPMP, go to options/video and choose GDI instead of Directdraw
I hope that is going to help you, beacause personnally, i'm fed up about DIVX player (i have to big fingers ;-))
PS : sorry for Thierry Henry hand against Ireland .....
for me it also worked when in directdraw options I choose YV12 and with better performance than GDI
for it doesn't work with YU12 option but with YUY2 option
Thanks kheni - crashed my hd2 about 5 or 6 times trying to play video earlier today on loads of tcpmp hacks - this does the trick nicely
I've downloaded before the Alpha4.1 cab for this.. not sure whether it's the same. But I can't find the YUY2 thingy in any part of the setting. Care to elaborate further?
Edit: I've found the setting. Seems like there is no difference between the two cabs.
Request
For Firiel & Kheni
Like Sian, Could you please tell me where you find the YV12/YUY2?
Thanks in davance

It's in the "Setting", one of the last under 'Options'. Go to 'Direct Draw', choose it at the 'Select Page'. Then you can see the options to select YUY2.
Interestingly, the movie I encode for Touch HD now playable not only via the HTC Album media player, but also by TCPMP, but sometimes can see the lag. I think the processor is stronger now.
Thanks
Thanks Sian for your quick response.
Goin' to try now.
See you
Franky
You might want to try the "Raw Framebuffer" setting, see how it compares to DirectDraw. (On a TP2 it's faster). You could also try using DirectDraw, but with the "use blitting instead of overlays" box ticked in the DirectDraw settings page. There are lots of interesting combinations to try.
Thanks
Thanks, this version working fine on my HD2 but not read flv files (it crashes my HD2 everytime I test a flv file).
Maybe someone will find THE solution.
Thanks again
Franky
Best config for TCPMP for the HD2
The configuration explained there (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5162820&postcount=31) apply to TCPMP too ;-)

I cant even run it. Everytime I try it crashes immediately
Try this one. Its works fine on my HD2 with 1.43 stock rom.
http://www.4shared.com/file/89175177/89c24ac7/TCPMP_v081RC1Beta_Touch_HD.html
Altough as per first post you do need to change from directdraw to GDI to get rid of the green screen issue.
Its also v0.81 beta which is the last ver made.

I have it working now as I found a recompiled version, but before that you clicked the exe to start it and instant crash, you couldnt even get to a menu to change any settings.
the setting from the first post works for me. THANK YOU!!
Hey Kheni,
Looked for hours to get TCPMP working again on my new HD2 as I watch many series everyday in the train to my work. Great job and many thanx!!! You give me back hours of time killing...

Guys, I installed and tested the subtitles with this version. Just past the files in the TCPMP program folder. Then options and load the subtitle you want. *.srt works fine!!!
It is the ultimate movieplayer now...
The linkt to the subtitle add on:http://sourceforge.net/projects/tcpmpsubssubtit/files/tcpmpsubssubtit/0.54%20Beta/SUBS054.zip/download
It works!
Have to use direct draw, overlay format yuy2 and unchecked both "overlay with colorkey" and "use device stretching for blitting"
When using GDI rather than directdraw, there is video stuttering during playback

The application is called Vtap. You can view youtube videos, google videos, web cam videos, or any of the available video source online and it will format it for your device. It also has wikipedia. Just google vtap and give it a try, or type in your browser www.vtap.com to download for your device.
Wow
Works really good. Thanks for the post.
I think I found ........
I think I found my permanent video source for my wizard. And its free.
Skins
I just change the skin to night sky, and it matches the HTC touch theme. The other colors are classic, pulses aqua. I wonder if we can make our own skins for this app.
this is truly amazing.
Just my opinion after trying vTap that TCPMP route is better. You can go to the actual YouTube site via PIE, just click on the video of your choice and TCPMP plays it. But as I said, just my opinion.
Can you save the videos?
Post software link
I can't do the SMS route and going to vtap.com with my Axim doesn't work either. Can someone post a direct link to download the client software?
Good software. Have a few bugs but works great at my HTC Touch.
Here is the direct link to download: http://vtap.com/alldevices.html#5_ppc
vtap puts two shortcut on my programs list vtap & vtap(1). I remove and re-install and same thing. Just wondering why it places two shortcuts???
Great software. When I click cancel on the video player screen it shuts down the application and I am forced to restart.
Would be nice to filter the results by site (YouTube , BBC ect...)
Really nice piece of software! Seems i have trouble streaming though even on low quality settings, might be the net at my work lol.
Thx for your inform. I will try it!!
http://vtap.com/alldevices.html#5_ppc This link no have WM5 PDA downloads!!
So sad sir!!.

Of course it does its the same for WM5 and 6, the second link to be more exact. And for someone else who asked it is possible to save bookmarks with this program. And for the other gentleman who mentioned the multiple shortcuts in the programs menu I suggest you take a course on file managment with Total Commander. *HINT* Windows->StartMenu->Programs
I installed Vtap but it will not connect to the server and it tells me to try again later. Why does this happen? I use WiFi connection from home to test.
I also have tested it in the hotspot but to my surprise, it works fine in the hotspot. So, is there any port that I need to open or something?
This also happens to AvotMV. When I click the video clip, it just says buffering but nothing happens. Does anyone know what causes this? '
I also have TCPMP installed with the flashvideobundle. But I don't think it has anything to do with this, does it?
Just wanted to say that this program works great!!
this is a great app, i was testing them on my wing and its very cool! thanks alot
Hi guys,
hopefully will be returning my I-Mate 9502 soon, and the only device I can imagine replacing it with is a Pro.
Are video drivers present? I read a few threads, but can't find a solid answer. Can the Pro at least play VGA video at full framerate? Can it do this through TV-out? I want to be able to play a divX video from my PC without having to convert.
Also, are there any other horiffic bugs/problems that I should know about that will stop me doing basic things?
Cheers,
Mike
I would also like to know answer for that question before purchasing touch pro. I learned from the mistake of buying kaiser without getting familiar to it's bugs before buying it.
Please someone run gxmark on your touch pro and tell me what score do you get! download gxmark here
edit. with kaiser i scored somewhere around 1550. So hopefully its at least that with touch pro.. and much better.
And please, someone with touch pro, run coreplayer benchmark and any D3D benchmark apps and keep us posted. Those numbers would tell us a lot how the device is managing. This would benefit all the users who are considering to swap their kaiser to TP.
Touchscreen Bug
Yes. I am also looking forward to touch pro. Only one thing interests me and hasn't been completely answered even in diamond forum: can anyone test if THE TOUCHSCREEN BUG from devices like tytn II still exist when playing a game that requires continuous stylus on screen (skyforce reloaded for ex, or call of duty 2). i saw some videos on youtube with a guy playing an emulator on the diamond and it was flawless. If that is the case, then I'm clear to buy this puppy.

I couldn't get gxmark to work, just got a plain white screen. I'll try something else later and test the video playing if nobody else does but I'm just having dinner right now
@ukdj78
If its not an issue can you try out this http://www.glbenchmark.com/GLBenchmark_Community_Full_1_02_WM5_CM.cab , you will need to register at www.glbenchmark.com to view the results. Can you post them here please?
Can you also try running this video as well
http://www.glbenchmark.com/videos/GLBenchmarkPro_High.wmv
Thanks.
Video playing is flawless using Coreplayer, and using the TV-Out cable has absolutely no effect on performance.
I'm not a big believer in benchmarks, but out of interest I ran benchmarks Coreplayer using DirectDraw, GDI, Raw FrameBuffer and QTV Display, just to see whether "QTV display" is still much better - it isn't - they all come out at roughly 140%. So there isn't the same sort of difference that I got when using "QTV Display" on the Kaiser, but the improvement isn't needed anyway (on the Kaiser the same videos would always return benchmarks under 100% unless I used the "QTV Display").
I've tried seven different 700Mb Xvid .avi movies, and they've all work perfectly. No page tearing or stuttering using CorePlayer. Haven't tried TCPMP, but I'm sure it'd work just as well.

Just ran the test, but I have no idea whether the results are any good. They're attached though...
Just tried a selection of video files from my PC in Windows Media Player on the Touch Pro and here are my findings (Video file info determined with GSpot v2.7):
.WMV file: 640x480 29.96fps 1257kps Audio: 44100Hz stereo 64Kps:
It didn't cope too well with it to be honest, sound was ok but the video only appeared to have about half the framerate of what it should be.
.AVI file: DivX 5/6 Codec 640x480 29.97fps 3164kps Audio: PCM 48000Hz 1536kps
Didn't play the video at all - got sound only (probably no video codec on device)
.AVI file: XVid Codex 720x438 29.97fps 1991kps Audio: MP3 44100Hz 128kps
Didn't play video or sound - came up with the message "Windows Media Player cannot play the file."
.MP4 file: 640x480 24fps 1601kps Audio: MP4 48000Hz Unknown kps
Played perfectly - Very smooth and not noticeably different from performance on my PC
.MPG files: Touch Pro does not recognise this format, wanted to try a PAL DVD quality MPEG 2 file
Looks like MP4 is the way to go for video files then
@sub69
Thanks mate. Its not great, almost identical to the Diamond in 3D performance, maybe the Diamond is a wee bit superior.
Any luck playing the video?
Thanks once again .
@ukdj
Try COrePlayer(which is 20USD) or TPCMP, supports a lot more codecs.
I'll try TCPMP then, used that a lot on my Vario II to play flv files but I originally didn't bother to install it on the touch pro cos I knew it could handle flv files since it had a youtube player built in!

I should declare that I had a few things minimised in the background (ActiveSync, Calendar, Messaging, File Explorer) and push mail was running, so it wasn't exactly a scientific test and I'm sure I could get marginally better results if I could be bothered!
We would expect it to be pretty much identical to the Diamond anyway, wouldn't we?
Video is very jerky if you just try to play it in CorePlayer, but if you run a CorePlayer benchmark on it, it's as smooth as you like. Odd. Much better in WMP, but still jerky.
@sub69 I'm having a little issue with text message notifications, could you do me a quick favour and try this on your touch pro: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=418089 If you want me to send you a text message to try it out Private message me with your mobile number and I'll send the word "test" to you!
The processor scores maybe higher although I doubt having minimized apps would have affected the 3D benchmarks. Since a lot of folks have mentioned that TF3D is smoother on the Pro than on the Diamond wondered if it was some changes to the 3D acceleration or better s/w optimisation of TF3D.
Did you try to play the video using QTv? Any benchmark values for the video from Coreplayer? btw, that video plays on the Kaiser at about 9-10fps.
Thanks again .
(just wanted to say this) You guys are the best! So much needed info about this, keep on going!

Don't really wanna pay $20 for testing purposes, sorry and TCPMP doesn't work either - another of the many programs I've found which don't seem to like VGA screens I'm using version 0.72RC1 is there a newer one which might work or is this the latest?
EDIT: just found another cab file for TCPMP on the Athena forum which has a different file name to mine, will give that a try!
2nd EDIT lol: No, that was no good either - it wouldn't even install!
You could try the TCPMP which was rebuilt using VS2008 (its in the dev and hacking forum i think)??
gimme a sec i'll get the URL...
EDIT: Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=380387
youve probably already tried it but if not, do
EDIT 2: Im getting my Touch Pro soon after i get back from vacation (a week or so) so i will encode some vids into VGA and see how they perform, ive found coreplayer to be great so far with my Hermes so will have a straight comparison using the same files benchmarked both in QVGA and VGA versions on both devices.
Might be worth stating what kinda of formats people are using aswell (XVid/DivX, H261 etc....)
Try the one in this post, this is working on the diamond so high probability it will work on the touch pro.

Thanks,
I found changing the "Normal buffer size" to about 8000 kb improves video playback dramatically of an XVid file. This video was designed for the Tilt however with a 320x240 video size. I'll have to wait and see how it plays something at 640x480.

I guess that the smoother TF3D on the Raphael will be because it's a later build (later than any I ever saw in my Diamond ROM's, anyway).
Didn't get a percentage value for that video...I guess that because of the filetype, CorePlayer "benchmarks" it differently? CorePlayer just told me the bitrate and properties of that high-def file when I ran it's benchmark to the end. Again, QTV, DirectDraw, RawFrameBuffer, and GDI all looked pretty much identical to my untrained eye, but this time I didn't have percentage values to confirm that...
Can i play a 700MB 640x480 X-Vid (or wmv,...) file on a touch pro with coreplayer smoothly? or even a 2x700MB movie? (-->means double bitrate)
Sorry if the question is stupid, but i always read no concrete answer. (means YES or NO)

Hi, I'm sure most of you can tell what i am going to ask......
Is there anyway to use coreplayer to stream a video from sopcast, Or just make sopcast work on the HD2? I am in work tomorrow and I would like to watch the Liverpool vs Everton match on my mobile because we keep gettin bollocked by the boss for watchin them on the shop PCs.
Cheers for any help in advance!!
You can stream it from a computer to TCPMP but you can't watch a live Sopcast channel on a Windows Mobile device with any current software to my knowledge.
Besides, even if you could, you would need either wifi or a very fast 3G connection in your workplace.
I have WIFI, thats ok, I just looked at TVU player, that can apparently stream live sports to a winmo device but I cant fond a .cab version!

I'm sorry, i forgot to attach TCPMP. Install this app. (See my first reply, i attached it now). Start TVU mobile, choose you channel, press play and TCPMP will automaticly startup and load that channel.
I works nice, use Wifi obviously. I installed it on SD

First i installed TVU Mobile (the one attached), then installed TCPMP (the one attached). Started TVU Mobile, clicked on a channel and pressed start. Then TVU Mobile starts buffering and automaticly starts TCPMP.
So nothing special. Maybe you can try to run TCPMP in the background while you start TVU Mobile. That could trigger TCPMP.
Is it possible you have Coreplayer as your default player? Could be a reason why it's not working for you.

Still not working. I uninstalled Coreplayer, then soft reset. I uninstalled TVU and TCPMP, then installed them again.
When I start TVU, select a chanel and press play nothing happens. (I am of course connected to wi-fi.) Can't see it starts buffering. I also have tried TCPMP running in the background... Nothing...
how to get the codec..because the codec in this phone not support to play the tv...

I noticed TVU was trying to start a player like TCPMP, so installed TCPMP(the one attached). Did a reset and now, after buffering, TCPMP starts with the chosen channel. Nothing special tbh.
At the 3th Screenshot, you'll see the screen is black. That's because of the Shake&Save app. It always give me a black screen when i "Shake to Save" a movie.
Sweet, I got this working.
Now alls I have to do is find a good channel guide that'll tell me what channels the Liverpool games are on!!
Have the same problem. When choosing a channel, nothing happens, just "current playing <channel number>"
TCPMP won´t open, no buffering, nothing...:-(
Just made a hard reset (with official HTC winmo 6.5 rom) so no extra media players are installed
Sometimes it takes a little longer to load...
Did u use the TVU player attached? Could be a version issue.
I'm running a stock rom with coreplayer and tcpmp installed and it worked first time for me!
I think I prefer this to sopcast as the TVU player has a real TV schedule so I know what channel I need to stream without haveing to start one and check then close and check another!
TVU is not working
Hi there!
i just found this thread, and wanted to watch some tvu channels on my htc hd2. but it doesnt buffer and the tcpmp player shows no pictures...
Hopefully someone can help me with this.
my rom version is: 1.66.407.1
i only have this htc for 2 weeks now, so it would be a lot of help if someone could help me with this!!!
best wishes
die spritze
ps: all grammatical mistakes are for your entertainment!!
anyone knows something?
Hi
As you know the football season is going be kickin in a few days time. We hope someone fix this problem?
So has anyone got this working properly on their htc hd2? I am having the same problem as users above. When clicking on channel(s) its just buffers and nothing happens after that?
Any ideas or solution for this, many thanks.
p.s May be sopcast should release a mobile version now?
It's still working flawless here. I didn't do anything special, just installed everything as mentioned above. Last week i installed everything again and still no problems.
Just use the files uploaded in this thread, install it in the right order and have a little patience buffering everything before pushing the play button 10 times....
I only use it with WIFI.
Maybe your ROM is not "compatible"? I'm not sure if that has anything to do with this issue.
Hey all,
the attached TCPMP works on HD2 without the need to change any settings .
Just install and enjoy it.
the attached version is 0.72RC1

You can put it in the same folder with your movie, and make sure it have the same file name (only the extintion .srt)
press options, subtitles, open (and choose your file, if it doesn't load by default with the movie)
GREAT work! thank you, worket right out of the box
Great! But still slower than CorePlayer. After fresh soft reset says 500MHz...
If only CorePlayer supported AC3 and .srt
AWESOME!

hello!i have TCPMP VERSION SUBTITLE EDITOR 0.81RC1 BETA and its working great with subs....try to update fellas....
Of the two TCPMP versions attached higher up, I haven't yet tried the version that is supposed to support subtitles, but have tried the first one. Comments on that:
1) While the default settings do certainly work they are not optimum (IMO). You will get better picture quality if you go into Options/Video and activate Dither, then "smooth zoom always" rather than "smooth zoom 50%". You will get substantially better performance if you then go into the DirectDraw settings page, choose "YUY2" as your overlay format, leave "use device stretching" checked, and uncheck the other two boxes.
2) The version of TCPMP I normally use is this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3275845&postcount=172. Compared to the first of the two versions attached to this thread (and, as I said, I haven't yet tested the second) it is a lot faster. On a sample 512x384 .avi clip, the version in this thread (with all of the quality and speed settings mentioned above) benchmarked at 209%. The version I just gave you a link to gives me 262%. I have never attempted to get subtitles working with it, so I don't know about that aspect.
Thanx so much, I had big problems with running this great application on my HD2. But according to this trick in settings:
1) While the default settings do certainly work they are not optimum (IMO). You will get better picture quality if you go into Options/Video and activate Dither, then "smooth zoom always" rather than "smooth zoom 50%". You will get substantially better performance if you then go into the DirectDraw settings page, choose "YUY2" as your overlay format, leave "use device stretching" checked, and uncheck the other two boxes.
everithing is fine right now.

Can anyone confirm whether this TCPMP will play MPEG2 files? I've been looking for something to play the MPEG2 video files exported from PlayTV on my PS3 for ages!
Cheers
Jim
Thank you! Works great and upscaling is ok
One question to any developer - will there ever be any possibilities of an upgraded UI? All my buttons are black on black backdrop and the sliders look very much PPC2002...
This is not in any way a display of me being ingrateful - just hoping for HD2-worthy eye candy

Thanks ya pasha for the wonderful post
Hey, it seems this is working for most people, but I have never tried tcpmp before. Should my screen look like this ?
Thanks in advanced

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, it does look like that. I asked roughly the same question two posts up
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
