Hi there, is there any way I can watch this video (for example: mms://sdmc.contents.edgestreams.net/horsgv/regions/siege/infos/f2/20h/HD_20h_20070904.wmv?WMCache=0) on my SP5m with TCPMP 0.72RC1. So far, only the audio works, it says "video codec (Windows Media 9) not supported by the player". My smartphone is running WM6 (english perfect edition). I also tried using the built-in Windows Media player to play it but without success, it says "an unknown error occured". Same with the software "Streaming Media" which looks like it opens a rtsp:// link only, it won't work because it won't load a mms:// link.
I thought those Windows Media 9 codecs were installed by default, are they? I say this because I kind of remember playing a video on TCPMP that was using a WM9 video codec...
If I need to install that codec, how would I do that? Where would I find it?
Any help would be really appreciated! Thank you all for your time.

...same problem here - maybe this will help:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-299662.html
Edit 1: worked fine on my Ameo with WM6 - jus copy the 2 dll files(from this Thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298126 ) inthe windows directory of your ppc - then install tcpmp 0.81 und wmv are running in good quality 6 you also hear Audio
Works like a charm for me as well, I copied the 2 missing dlls (1 file copied, 1 file overwrited) into Windows directory and tadam, it worked even without rebooting, I was able of looking my news stream. Thanks all!
hello,
can someone please help me? I've upgraded to Windows Mobile 6. I've signed up for ORB and i wanted to use tcpmp as my default player for playing videos but i keep getting the same errors...
Can't Play WMA File
Can't Play WMV9 File
now i did try copying both .dll files to my "smartphone" and when i did go into my smartphone, i couldn't see the files, they were hidden - how do you go about doing this? i'd really appreciate it if someone could help me out here.
now, my question is - is it because these files were extracted from a ppc device and i need smartphone specific files? can someone please help, thanks.

Hello all.
I am trying to get some of my favorite local radio stations internet streams onto my phone. I got an URL sniffer and have been able to get Windows Media Player to play the MMS source on the stations that I want. In other words ... it is working.
What I am trying to do now is get a shortcut for the MMS link that will open the stream without me having to open Windows Media manually and then opening the URL. Everytime I create a shortcut, it creates an internet shortcut, which uses Internet Explorer. I have tried redirecting the shortcut to open with Media Player using GSFinder, and that still is not working.
Anybody have any suggestions to getting this to work.

Above is the radio station address that I am trying to stream. I am not particular to any program ... all I want is to click on the shortcut and have the program self launch/play. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

what you're looking for is called an .ASX file.
it's basically a shortcut file for windows media streams.
look it up and make one yourself.
have fun
Sorry to bring an old thread up...but I found this very useful!
There are a lot of applications like WebTv, DiamondTV, but it is very simple.
Just make your own asx file, and click on it...voila WM or Coreplayer or any other player starts up and plays the stream. Light, easy.
here is a guide how to create the asx file:
To create an ASX metafile, open a text editor such as Notepad and enter the following text (substituting your own stream for stream):
<ASX version="3">
<Entry>
<ref href="stream" />
</Entry>
</ASX>
Save the text as an ASX file. Replace stream with your actual stream.
Click the ASX file to test it. Your media player should open and play the media file.
Nice
Finally, This post is really useful.
A post is never too old. You have completed it with essential informations.
Thanks! It's exactly what I was searching for.
I have serach and search and i cant find anything like can play .pls files.

Hi
Could anyone tell my how can I stream video on my Android from my home network without have to download it first?
Thanks
There are different programs like VLC DIRECT which can do it. That is the one I use and it works great. I think there is another one called Emitt.

I just recently got this working myself, so I hope this combination of two apps works for you.
The first app accesses the network shares of my Windows PC. I'm using Estrongs File Manager which saves username/password information and specific file directory share shortcuts. It even see's the admin shares (c$, d$...) so I can access anything on my desktop.
For the Media Player I use MX Video Player.
When I select a Video file in Estrongs from any of my Desktop's file shares, MX Video Player plays it over the WiFi. I'm playing all sorts of .AVI, MPG, MPEG, and WMV files without a problem so far.
I sure wish I could do this on my iPad as easily.

Thanks Man
working better than fine
Hi, half -Off topic - sorry
i followed your ideas, as is sounds great. Got confused about "Estrongs".
cannot see my "shared folders" from pc. Tried to find the server as provided in Estrongs.
It finds my PC's IP but I cannot log on or see any shared folders.
I also tried to connect via the built in FTP client. then it cannot find my FTP server on the PC. Strange, as I am quite advanced in using my network.
Am I missing something>??

Emit (free/pro)
Or:
cifs manager + any player (I find cifs manager better than the mount feature of estrongs/file expert/astro)
I use Plex and it works great. Install PLex media server on your PC\Home server and then you can stream the video to your android device using the PLex for Android app.
Subsonic
The only real choice for this is Subsonic
+1 for the CIFS Manager + video player (in my case, Mobo Player) solution. I've used it for 8 months and it works like a dream, super-fast, super-flawless.
I use a combo of EStrongs file manager, and Mobo player. Just add your computer to the "LAN" section, find the file.
I was able to stream pretty much anything over the network at home.
Imedia share works for me

Hi I have a link from a website that I want to make into a shortcut file that I can play in mx player android. When I paste the link into "network stream" everything runs perfectly but when I create a txt file with the link and change the extension of the file to .m3u or .m3u8, the file plays but I can't skip around the video. So the text document would have the following in it
Http://www.youtube.com/video.mp4
I ran the file in the VLC app on android and I can skip around the track so must be mx player Anyone have a fix or better option to do what I'm doing Thanks
