Does anyone know of a Windows Media Player plugin for the today screen that works with version 10 of WMP. THe PHM plugin doesn't work with 10. Also I tried other programs like pocket music but they have bad integration with the operating system and voice command.
Thanks,
Daniel
Here it is...
WMP 10 plugin like IPOD with today screen plugin and portuguese operators configuration. If you do noy need install the 3 operators cab...inside
Thanks- I installed the .CAb but the today plugin only says "Play media files"- is it supposed to have controls- like Play, Stop , Next etc...
The Today Screen plugin opens WMP 10 with a IPOD Screen and on the screen, on the sides you have BIG controls that you can use .
I was looking for a plugin that allows you to control WMP from the today screen. Thanks anyway- also- i have a better Ipod skin that I uploaded here:
I accidently ran the optimus /cab and now my connections are screwed up-
how do I remove it?

very simple no control on what to play. just play/pause next/prev and vol up/down it would be nice if we could atleast select a folder or playlist. everytime i start it, it plays my WMA tones! hahaha o well.
Ipod skin
Thanks for the very cool iPod Skin.

Good find, thanks
Why don't you give mortplayer a try, the today plugin for is is great
I have to say that anything that's not WMP just isn't good for the pocket pc (in my opinion) because of the lack of integration with the OS. For example, when I get a call it stops my music, then when i'm finished it resumes playing. As far as I know only WMP does this. Also, all the other players are too fancy for me- I don't need all those controls- just Play,Pause, Volume, and Next/previous track.
Although- does anyone know how to map other buttons. When I try to map other buttons besides the 5 "joystick" buttons it goes to that function. For example, if I choose mute and press "assign" and then press the contacts button- it switches me to my contacts. Same thing for my camera, phone, calander etc...
Any ideas??
Thanks!
ps- I love the iPod skin too!! I got it a while ago and can't find it anymore due to copyright issues. Good thing I saved it on my HD!
I actually found a newer version while seeing if what I wrote was true-
Here you go!

i think the subject says it all!
Version 3.71 won't launch.
Subsequently, Conduits Pocket Player 2.61 will launch, but the playback is so slow and jittery, it either must be a dog on the processor, or this is where the limitation of the OMAP processor is revealed. Ouch.
uninstalled pocket music, but found files are still looking for it, may not have completely gone?
iMusic works!
http://imusic.citsoft.net/eng/main.asp
tried both imusic & conduits pocket player, imusic is very good but both lack a couple of facilities that pocket music had,
display off function & lock hardware buttons
Don't bother with iMusic, i was told it screws up the ringtone capability.
thanks for the advice,
i had a similar problem with pocket music with my old pda, and what helped was not to let the "auto associate files types" run during the install.
New Pocketmusic for WM5 out soon!
It will be in this month.

Subject: Pocket Music for PPC WM5?
Hello,
Please could you tell me when you will be releasing an updated version of PocketMusic for Windows Mobile 5?
It doesn’t work properly on WM5 at the moment and I think your player is the best out there!
Thanks

sorry to reply to myself, but you can set imusic to be able to turn off the display, and of course you can remove hard button controls.
:? my fault for not reading instructions
Pocket Music Not Working - NOW FIXED apart from EQ Fader
I upgraded my old o2 XDA 11s FW to I-Mate latest (in sig) I have to run PocketMusic from Program Files, dosnt show up in Programs list, AND cant switch WINAMP SKINS, what ever folder I put them in PMSKINS and SKINS
which makes me very unhappy! :x
PocketMusic v3.7.1 and running SpbPocketPCPlus2.5 dont know if this conflicts ?
SOLUTION, just downloaded the 3.71 .exe from location 2, ran it, works with skins but GRAPHIC EQUALISER not holding fader positions, any ideas?
whats wrong with built in media player?
do these players play movie files too? (divx/xvid)
unless i am wrong, you can't turn the display off in the supplied media player.
if i am wrong please tell me.
Sure you can - you can assign it to a button within Windows Media Player's options.
The downside to it is that it doesn't even support soft keys! WTF?!
PocketMusic GRAPHIC EQUALISER NOT WORKING
POCKET MUSICS GRAPHIC EQUALISER is not holding fader positions,

Also the "SONY" graphic is messed up, on my Winamp skin Expensive hi fi 2005 (winamp.com search skins for "expensive" its realy nice!)

I am looking for a today screen plugin that enables me to control WMP from the today screen. Any ideas?
Spb ToPlay...
... available here: http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/pocketplus/plugins.html?en
Despite what it may seem, it doesn't need spb Pocket Plus to run.
Thanks but the spbtodayer player is an independant player and just plays tracks in order.
With a bit more searching I found this

Which has far better integration with wmp10 and does repeat and shuffle plays
Hi, I just bought a HTC P3600 (S300+) everything works fine so far. My question is: can it be possible to turn off the screen while windows media player is playing some mp3s, I’m kind of new with this device, I looked on the wmp options and at the system setting but I didn’t find anything, i thing it’s useless to have the screen turned on using the battery if you are listen some music and the device is in your pocket!
Cheers!
Just try another program like Mortplayer or GsPlayer. They all seem to support this feature...
You could use Xbar and assign turn off screen to a button.

Great WMP tip!
Not many keys are available to be assigned (beside directional pad) but I just figured out I could use "HOLD down" and "HOLD up" as key assignments.
Maybe Im the only one to miss that !?
Yes! Thanks for your answers, i did the "hold down" tip, is great!
i also tryed the GsPlayer and Mortplayer, they work fine, the probleme is that i sync my music with wmp on my pc and all music is reencoded in .wma (it's not so bad i can save place when my mp3 are supirior to 160kbps) maby i try another way to sync so i can use GsPlayer cz it look fine.
well, thx again!
I use VJEschaton screenoff / screentoggle to switch off my screen when listening to Carla Bruni

Hi
I am wondering of anyone on here knows of a plugin or app that shows what WMP is playing on the today screen. This would be handy as I often play music in the background but i would like what is playing and the remaining track time displayed. Also if that information was a link to reopen WMP that would be great! Any thoughts? I'm suprised WinMo doesn't do this anyway.

just use multimedia panel: media interface on today screen
today screen specific help
Thats not what I asked. I find the panels practically useless. I want to do everything from the ''Today'' screen. Any help?
No that doesn't help. I barely use the Panel's the today screen is what I want to use. Any advice?
Serach Google for Spb ToPlay. It's no longer officially available from SPB but you can find it outsourced. It can block your phone however when you first use it, but for me it worked after a softreset. Also includes controls for WMP.
this is in windows 6.5!
if you flash roms,then try itje's 6.5 rom, the new today screen (titanium) has a music section where you can browse through music, click once to play, click again to pause, and swipe left of right to browse songs, it automatically opens wmp in the background and the right soft button opens it.
imo titanium for 6.5 is a big step forward!
Ok so I never really cared about music... but my new job (yes got a new yob during a recession!!!!! was only laid off errrr 3 week vacation as I see it...)
anyway...
I now have to take the train to philly... and I listen to music on my mogul...
I tried TCPMP but I dont have stuff setup as a playlist yet....
I then used Media Player which was easy... but for some reason it kept on randomly changing songs....
the audio manager in the rom i am using was working then started acting up.. but now im trying a new rom Titan Reloaded M2D 1.4 beta 2 by bitserve
so gonna try using the touch flo music part.. has a shuffle so will see...
anyway what do you recommend?
media player was easy... and you can rate the songs.. but no way to play your list by rating....
i just dont want an ipod... I used to carry all kinds of stuff... pda, cell, external gps, etc.. now I have it all in 1... and love it...
for videos I use WMP. but for songs I use S2p that works almost like the Itouch. just play lists not too sure about.
for WMP. I usually like to put the music in different folders on the card by genre. que them up and make a playlist so on and so forth.

i did install s2p before I left for work.. so far it is cool... can turn mogul off and it still plays....
minimal features but has what I want so think it is a winner...
thanks!
Jeff
since we are talking about s2p, has anyone had a problem where it takes s2p like 3-5 seconds to load a song everytime the song changes. What also came with that problem is that it takes a lot longer for s2p to close andbring me to the home screen. I just sit at a black screen sometimes for 10 seconds till i get to the home screen. If anyone has a solution i would love to hear it
edit: all my files are organized in a nice structured format sdCard/music/BandName/Album/track i dont know why its doing it but its definitely weird
edit(2/26/09): i uninstalled s2p cleared all reg values and everything with skTools and reinstalled s2p and works fine again.
i am not too sure. I loaded mine on the card but other than that ot too sure.
Nitrogen
You can also check out Nitrogen. I really like the program and can be found on the "Development and Hacking" on the main page if you search for it.
I prefer to use Media Player. I program S2U2 to button 5, so I just start my music, hit button 5, and my phone turns off quickly and my music keeps on playing. The media player is much more palatable with a skin.
I am assuming you checked your shuffle button on media player to make sure it is not on?
