anyone know if WMP that we get on WM5 plays back DivX or XviD files natively?
if not is there a codec set compiled available online?
No you have to use a 3rd party player like TCPMP.
Actually WMP supports codecs, so you need to find appropriate Pocket-PC compiled codec for DivX and configure WMP to use it.
Another thing is change your DivX header to MS-MPEG4 and try to play that. This is not applicable to Xvid movies
Checkout this FAQ: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/windowsmobile/faq.aspx
It would probably be easier and better playback to use TCPMP anyway.
TCPMP is very, very good!
TCPMP ??!
If you install TCPMP, will it replace WM player ?? what will happen ??
absolutely not.
it's only another app.
bye

Is it possible to download codecs from the internet for your pocket pc just like your home pc, as some video files i have copied onto my xda ii will not play, if so what is the best site to get these from?
Thankyou, as always!
Whats file types are you using.
Pocket TV plays MPEG's very nicely.
Also try MVP for other types including XviD's.
You will have to Google for them as I don't have the adresses
I use this DivX player (Mpeg4), don't know if it works with WM player.
Is that the codec Bob?
Yes, it is.
I compressed .avi file using DivX ;-) MPEG4 Fast/Low-Motion with Hero Video Convert and was able to play it on my MDA
but having the codec will not make mediaplayer play anything but
ms's own formats plus mp3
to play anything else mediawise you need 3th party players
If you need to play divx you should try BetaPlayer at http://beta.topcat.hu/ , it's amazing how fast the decoding is, I can see no differences with a divx played on a PC (feeding it with a 320x240 movie of course)..
Yes BetaPlayer is pretty good : very stable with good decoding capabilities definitely the way to go to read Mpeg4 on your PPC
Which Video Plaer to be used with Atom Exec...TCPMP doesn't play anything..
wich wersion do you use?
tried .71 RC and 0.8
maby you need to install aditional codecs?
another way write the problem to author tcpmp...
after you install tcpmp with divx codec, your windows media player must play avi movie...
It's an avi file with WMA audio codec I want to play.
TCPMP comes up with the message that the audio codec (Windows Media Audio) isn't there, so the picture is fine, but no audio.
I'm not sure if the plugin exists, but if one has it, please share. Thnx.

Right.... and how am I going to use any of that content in conjunction with TCPMP?
TCPMP does not support the WMA codec, presumably because of the licensing costs that would have to be paid to Microsoft.
Get yourself some video conversion software, and convert it to something that will play on TCPMP.
Edit - a quick search just turned up this solution - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=327534
ffmpeg released their new decoders in march this year and support WMA amongst others.

Does the .8*rc version of tcpmp include this newer codec?
The .72 plugins are here http://picard.exceed.hu/tcpmp/test/

No, it doesn't
Coreplayer DOES. Coreplayer plays the files that TCPMP doesn't due to the missing WMA audio codec/plugin.
Since Coreplayer does include the desired plugin (I don't want to use Coreplayer due to performance issues) I was wondering why there isn't just a .plg plugin file for this WMA audio codec.
The solution you give regarding ffmpeg, what exactly is that? Will that work with TCPMP?

If I understand it correctly, ffmpeg is used by tcpmp/core as one of the decoders.
If corecodec have soley moved their attention across to the core player, then I think you'll be out of luck for tcpmp as they will need to build in the work of ffmpeg into the software.
this old thread just got bumped... good timing for you..

Hi,
I've installed divx player mobile. When I play a movie file I do'nt have any sound, just the picture. The audio codec is
mpeg 1 or 2 Audio layer 3 (mp3)
channels: 2
sample rate: 48.000 Hz
Bitrate 124 kbps
Is this audio codec not supported? Is there a way to install different codecs? Is there a better video player for divx/xvid files?
Thank you for your help.
use CorePlayer
Coreplayer seems to be an great application. But it costs $30. Is there any freeware? Or is there a way to get divx player to work?

Same problem
Hello,
i have the same problem with my girlfriend HTC Touch 3g. Any soulution, to play sounds with DivX Mobile Player?
Thanks gingo
no codec
I have the coreplayer, and when I try to play the .avi file it gives me an error box saying that it needs an AC-3 codec wich is not supported by the player(the same happens in DivX). Is there a way to download the codec, or do you guys recommend another player?
Hallo, I have the same problem with divx player on my HD2. No sound when playing avi files. I have TCPMP installed on there is error: Unexpected program failure. Please send "crash.txt" to the developers. Programm will now exit.
I don't know what to do now.
Previously I had Samsung I780 with WM 6.5 Pro and divix player was working fine. What can be wrobg with this one. The same software as my previous phone but not working.
anyone can post out the media software to watch x1?? i want it performance smooth n doesnt hv delay..thx
Million plus first reply for this topic:
Built-in media player is the best, since it is the only one (well, together with WM player) with full HW support.
Next best would be core player, with partial HW support. But generally you can't play any one CD AVI fluently.
Yes, you must recode the movie into mp4. Simple tool for that is described in this sticky thread:

Just use coreplayer and you dont have to convert
