HTC Album - movie info? - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

I'm using the HD Video converter v1.21 to convert video files to play on an HD2... I realize these are MP4 files and need the hardware acceleration of the built in HTC Album player....
Thing is when the album finds them it just gives a shot of the opening frame of the movie as a picture... is there anyway to make it display the name too or instead off?
Its a pain going through every clip to find the one you want...

I absolutely second that, but as far as I know it is not possible to modify the album so that it shows embedded Information or the filename. Sorry mate. Maybe you better use RescoExplorer or something to select your Videos. MP4s should then be opened with the build-in Player out of the box (of course only if you havent associated mp4-files with any other videoplayer).

Thanks for the pointer - I will try Resco. thanks again

One more tip:
- Open RescoExplorer
- tap and hold your videofolder
- Choose "send to" --> "startmenu as shortcut"
- Now you are able to put your videofolder directly on a quicklink on your homescreen
- Furthermore you can enable the preview-/thumbnail-option in RescoExplorer so you can see a thumbnnail and VideoInformation
Cheers

Addchildsk8er have you tried Mobytube? I find that Mobytube has a much better playback (video&audio) compared to Vtap. I would suggest you give Mobytube a try and compare the 2 and see which one you like better. I have posted the link to Mobytube below, just follow the online directions on how to install the software for your mobile device.
If you don't like this option you can always go into the tools settings on Vtap found at the bottom right hand corner. Just click on tools and a drop down menu will appear scroll down to where you see options. Click on options and a dialog box will appear with more options. At this point look for the media option and this is where you can tweak your audio & video settings. Good luck..

Go to the website on your cell phone and under the word "Top" type in the box what your looking for. Right above the word search there is another box just click on the drop down button and it will give you several options. Scroll down to youtube and click on it and then hit search. it will give you all the media file for the word you searched for in youtube. Just click on the file u want and it should play through your tcpmp player. Hopefully this helps. Good luck...

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.
Hi
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

Would have thought that would need a major redesign of the app. You can find out a video's name by opening it, pressing stop, then selecting the right menu button and finally properties.

ohh... that's a plenty of work. and uncomfortable... takes a lot of time...
I've noticed on my friend's N900 that there are names under the thumbnails in video gallery and found it VERY good, especially if you have a lot of trailers, movies, music videos... never know where's the video you're lookin' for, unless you have a name of video written...

how to set album cover image?

hey.. i'd like to set my album cover image.. how should i do it? thx for any help! =)
Google a program called media monkey. I am not sure if there is a way to do it on the xoom.

here's a link to MediaMonkey. I have been using it since 2006 and never needed anything else (except itunes of course). There are many apps out there that will allow you to get the cover art automatically on the Xoom. Many are listed here.
no luck for that. any elase suggestion? thx =)

Maybe you can specify more clearly what exactly you want to do? Cubed from the market lets you fetch album art from the internet on the Xoom.
Out of interest does it rely on album art being embedded in mp3's or is there a naming convention for a jpeg image in the same folder?

I was curious how it set the album art myself. I have a lot of random tracks that were just assigned a random album art image from one of my other albums. It has nothing to do with the other tracks and they are named in no way similarly.
personally i put tracks ina folder by album and put the pic in the folder. works for me, so yes that means if i have a single it goes in its own folder
Very often programs will use the picture from "cover.jpg" or "folder.jpg" (substitute jpg with gif if necessary) when placed in the appropriate folder with the music files. I haven't tried it though since my files have the covers in the tags...
Try MP3tag.
Browse to your music folder > Select all the files by pressing Crtla + A > Right click on the the empty white box on the left panel and select add cover > Select the .jpg cover and click save on the top left hand corner.

[Q] how to detect 3D source movie?

Hi
I download some 3D movies (with left/right screen showing in laptop) with .wma file type.
However, the optimus 3D cannot detect it is 3D and even I use 3D function the phone just make it 3D but left/right screen just playing the same time
anyway to tell the phone it is 3D source?
thanks
Are you sure they are .wma? WMA files are meant to be audio only (Windows Media Audio) so shouldn't have video and therefore would not play in 3D if they were another format that had simply been mislabelled. Or do you mean wmv and it was a typo?
There are various things you can try.
It is possible it is an mp4 file and that the header is simply corrupted. If the video file is an mpeg 4 but for some reason not being correctly recognised you can patch the header (takes a few seconds on a pc) using the free software called Mp4Cam to Avi (http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rc...ze3QCA&usg=AFQjCNEMl4yuInKgQTIOVIsqx5px2E4MJg) which will patch the header to make it a fully compliant mpeg 4 video file.
You can transcode the file using free software like Super (http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rc...nPCWCQ&usg=AFQjCNFJQYHaPCRa5vQsYmSTXhTLw5x4gA). This will make it another format instead (mpeg 4 is a good option if your file is in an incompatible format).
EDIT: Assuming the phone is in landscape mode (the only mode 3D videos will play as 3D in) when the videos play if you touch the screen you see a button say 2D. Click that to make it 3D but if the button does not work or does not appear try restarting your phone and when it has restarted they may play.
Dave
Thanks! That is wmv.
I figure out a way to combine the left/right screen into one. it is unexpectedly easy just play the files (whatever video) in 3D mode, then choose the option by the left key, then I can choose the left/right combine in the screen (either L/R, R/L, top/down or as a whole combination)
thanks!

Now working. Just need to reset the phone after download 3d movies.
Tkx.
If you download the free app called "rescan media" from the android market you shouldn't need to restart phone. What this does is tell O3D you added new files and then makes it check them and add them to the galleries which is also what happens when you restart the phone or unmount the sd card.
Dave
Nice one... Thanks.
