android games question - Android Apps and Games

Hey everyone, I am planning to get an xperia x10 which contains android 1.6 , so I was wondering, if android 2.0 contained better apps compared to 1.6, or if there wasnt anything major of a difference to the app store . I have never used android before, and my only reserach have been on youtube videos, where games appeared to be the same.

Get Nexus One or HTC Desire (better option) instead of x10.
You will get Android 2.1 which is way much better than 1.6 and ... multitouch
You wont get multitouch on x10 (hardware limitation):

yeah i read many articles concering the lack of multi touch and android 2.1 :/.
can you tell me how the music player is on the nexus one though. Ive had a htc blackstone before, and its a pain for me to go through a list of music without having a alphabet shortcut pad

HTC Youtube vs. Official Youtube

HTC Youtube, or the official Windows Mobile Youtube client
What do you use, and why? I can't figure out which one I prefer.
I am using the official youtube app on my phone. Whenever I used the default htc youtube app, while playing in high quality it would always skipframes and look like it was playing in slow motion.
The official app does have some downsides. I think they should make 2 seperate apps one for windows mobile profesional and one for standard. It is difficult to navigate compared to the Htc youtube app and has small menus. I think they should make the search result picture "flow" (kinda like apples coverflow) larger.
I use ffplay for Windows Mobile on my Device. Here is the link http://www.ffmpeg-wince.org . The reason is that ffplay is free and open source. So you can help us to make it better.
And because i am the coordinator of this project ...
Greatz

Mine used to play in high quality, and smoothly, but lately has been stuttering as well. I wonder what the cause is?
HTC YouTube client.
Seems to use less resources than the official, plus the quality of my HTC version out-performs the Official YouTube client by-far.
That's for my Fuze tho.
With my Touch Dual, it's back-asswards. The Official Client is better due to the HTC YouTube client being ported to a QVGA Resolution. It's simply not made for QVGA Resolution.
i use the official app eventhough it seems that the search does not work the same way. it is however much more convenient and although simplified, it looks nicer.
I installed the official version on my HTC HD2 and it overwritten my HTC Youtube app or at least I am not able to find it anymore.
How can I get back my old HTC Youtube without a hard reset...?

[REQ] GUI/front end for HTC Video Player

Is it possible (or has someone already done this) to design an interface app for the underlying HTC Video Player like the one used for the Transformers movies? I have no idea how to code or what it would take but it seems like it would be doable (Again, I have no idea... just guessing) It could even be a separate tab in Sense for videos from the camera and movies.
I know how to access the videos through the Photos tab but it is clunky to say the least. I've downloaded TCPMP and while it works, it's very ugly and lacks the pop-over controls the built in player has. Currently I'm just using file explorer and it basically does what I'm saying but isn't very pretty.
Maybe I'm just too used to the aesthetically simple and pleasing interface of the iPod app for the iPhone, but this seems like a glaring omission on HTC's part (don't even get me started on the lack of a fast way to get to a particular artist in the Sense Music Tab). However, aside from these niggles, this is by far the best phone I've ever used. Thanks to anyone that can help
No one? Am I the only one that is annoyed by the lack of a good video player interface?

[Q] Music app that allows playback speed adjustment? Download TV Shows/Movies?

Hello all.
I am a very new owner of a Samsung Captivate (I've literally only had it for two days). In fact, I'm actually fairly new to Android in general. Prior to the Captivate, the only smartphones I've owned were Windows Mobile phones and an iPhone 3GS.
I'm doing well so far, but there are a few apps that I would really like to have, but can't seem to find.
To begin, is there app that allows you to download TV shows/movies. I've had apps like this previously and it would be really nice to have a similar app for the Captivate that works at least half as well. Second is an app I had from my WinMo days; TCPMP, in particular. TCPMP had an option that allowed you to slow down or speed up music playback and I was wondering if there are any music apps that allows that on Android?
Ultimately, I appreciate all replies, and thank you in advance!

Flash player problem help

Hello everyone,
new to the forum but not new to the world of android, I encounter a little trouble on my tab galaxy.
Simply put: when I want to play video on youtube or other flash site (using a user
agent desktop), playback of the videos is horribly slow jerky in window or full screen ...
My question is there a playerflash (APK) optimized for the processor tab, or is related to the version of
rom?
I have used on several browser, and some version of flash available.
This happens where you are?
Thank you for your help because this is one reason for choosing this tablet vs iPad would be a shame more
on a toshiba with the rom dexter 1.1 was pretty fluid.
I insist to use the site a flash video is not mobile version

[Q] Cons on shazam WP7 ?

Why is it that shazam on WP7 is inferior to iphone version?
For example, i cant find newer asian songs on WP7 whereas my friends iphone version can.
The youtube link from shazam always link to wrong youtube videos, i can never find the right ones from there
(it always link to Portal.shazamid.com, which is never able to identify the correct song)
I responded to shazam, but i doubt ill get a reply....
I havne't compared to to iPhone, but it seems very comparable to the Andoid version. I usually just use the built-in Mango feature instead (tap the Search hardware button, then the Music icon at the bottom) as it's usually faster and better integrated, but Shazam does give better results.
I've had better luck with Soundhound, which is also completely free and unrestricted.
Well I can't find any songs in Chinese.. Well most so I guess shazam hasn't integrated with the asia market in terms of wp7 version
You guys can find the correct YouTube link from shazam?
Sent from my 7 Mozart T8698 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
I like it also says our companion Orancia Sound Hound prefer because it is faster than Shazam and more effective in terms of searches and most importantly it is free, and many users are not happy with Shazam application ....
