Hello!
Does anyone of you know a media center software? I searched the forum but there are only two threads about the "htc media hub" but I think till now it isn't available?! - not sure about that
The only media center I know is the one from ahead nero (nero mobile) but this one really sucks!
Am I the only one how wants to view pictures and movies as well as listen to music with one program?
So does anyone know a media center apart from nero mobile?
If someone is out there with the HTC Media Hub or O2 Mediaplus who wants to share, it just would be great!
Thanks, Vi

Thanks Alan, but I am looking for a media center for my wizard ...
Greetings, Vi
All-in-one video + audio + images? TCPMP or, even better (if you don't mind it being commercial), CorePlayer.
Also make sure you check out my forthcoming Multimedia Bible; in there, I elaborate on ALL these questions and how the individual players compare.
Also, make sure you check out my past articles on TCPMP in the meantime if you want to know how it plays videos/audio / images.
Sounds interesting... I'll check them out
Thanks, Vi
*still waiting for a Mediacenter with a nice interface...*
It's me again...
I was playing around with TCPMP for some time today and I have an annoying problem...
Everytime I listen to music my device crashes... I mean really crashes. The screen is getting white and the sound is stuck... After about 5 seconds the device reboots...
Any suggestions =(?

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?

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.
I hope I do not annoy you guys with my ... "Best ..." threads.
However I really would like to know what is your favourite Mp3 player on the TG01 - I personally haven't found a lot good players besides HTC Media Player and Nitrogen!

The best is pocket player (just use a skin for wvga - surch for it at xda)
much more options tna anyother, much better sound quallity (you don't need srs wow to simulate surround or bass boost)
it playes everything... and best of all, It works very well whit my bluetooth phones (witch, by the way, for it's price, I recomend - phillyps shb7110 - it can be used in the car also, and with any hi-fi or anyother apparatus with sound output) nitrogen doesn't work with the keys of forward or rewind of this phones.

I agree: Pocket Player: It has hundreds of features!
My favourite is S2P - it´s for sure not as overloaded with features as pocket player is - but with a few ticks you listen music. And it integrates well with S2U2 (at least when you use it).
Pocket Player hangs on my phone when it goes to sleep, or the playback stutters. Maybe there´s an option somewhere - but until now I didn´t found it.

in pocket player go to options advanced and search under power. Theres something related to that problem of going to sleep... (if can't find say again and I will see, can't do it now)
s2p is good but the author left its developmnt in favor of only s2u2. it lacks somethings important - can't bind buttons and doens't work landscape... for instance

Nevermind ... I wouldn´t use it anyway. And it has some problems with the 6.5.5 Button-Bar, at least the version I once had.
I don´t use landscape on my phone, but for what you want to bind buttons? Switching songs? I do this with my BT-Headset, so it´s enough for me. The only thing I miss is the album scrolling from the earlier releases, but from time to time there are updates for S2P - so I haven´t stop hoping it will come back some day
Hello:
I'm new in this community so I will start with one doubt I have:
Is there anyway to change hardware volume buttons in order to switch (prev/next) in any music player (or at least Stock X10 MP or Winamp)?
I have searched here and with Google but I found no answers for Xperia X10.
Thanks!
Hey there,
I've been searching around for a [insert volume rocker overrider thing here]. I've tried rocking shortcuts from the market, but sadly it doesnt work with com.sonyericsson.music ¬¬ i really like this feature, is there anyway to enable it? Because i've had it with my old walkman phone, and this feature is a must for me; example: When playing a game while listening to music, or while cycling and phone is in pocket, It really takes the piss to get your phone, unlocking go to your widget.
Volume controls on lock screens are to sensitive for me as my phone randomly skips/stops playing music while he's in my pocket.
I'm running WB 3.8 Thanks in advance
I really want it too....

With cm7 you can forward rewind on long press volume buttons.
Thanks for your comment, but as i said i'd like to have it with the stock music player on WB, stock 2.3. Since i don't like the other players like playerpro, poweramp etc. I've tried the playerpro one for 3 bucks didn't work, only works with headset. After that i've searched for a miui music (latest version) port for my rom, no luck again. Tried CM7 (z) but i really like the feel of the stock sony rom.

Allo mate,
I had the same prob as you, as I couldn't use the cm7 roms due to bugs. So wondered if there was an alternative. Did a bit of searching but it seems the only solution is cm7. I need it for driving. The bugs have been fixed so I'm back on cm7.
Seems shocking there isn't another alternative.
If you do find one, post it here. Just for future reference.
Cheers, Ben.

Absolutely. This is a must have!!
I vote for this feature too!
I am using Poweramp though. Any solution that works for Poweramp?
For those of you who don't use the sony ericsson music player: Rocking Shortcuts works for me well, the longpress feature isn't the best, but the double/triple press work well for me using cubed player, and I'm sure it works well with a few other players
gogo cubed!
