I find that although I like the WMP when I reopen the program it has often forgotten what song was being played. This means I have to go back into the library to get it playing again.
Is this a problem with my os?
Is there a fix to this?
Other programs like Pocket Music don't seem to trip up in this way (although it does in other ways... don't get me started!).
running OS- O2 mini s- 1.5.4.102
Nevermind!
I just found TCPMP!
Works great! No errors yet.
I was hoping to get WMP up to scratch, but it always seems to fail somehow.
TCPMP (The Core Pocket Media Player) has been flawless so far. Hate to use more space but it's worth it for something that works that well and is free (opensource).

Just curious if anyone uses Nero Mobile on their Wizard for playing media files?
i did, it sucked, i deleted it. it was always freezing up on me
thanks for the info and sorry to hear that. I was hoping to be able to use it on my home system and wizard to sort of "standardize" my music using the same software. I guess Windows Media is about it. I am not too educated in that area though.
How long ago did you try it? Maybe there is an update that fixes some things.
I just installed Nero 7 Ultra Edition, but I disabled the Mobile application.
I don't use my Wizard (Cingular 8125) for media - speakers and headphones I have tried are pretty weak. So I still use a Creative Zen Micro player. To get my tracks onto that I use a replacement for the Creative Media Explorer called the Notmad Explorer. It handles transfer of music tracks, streaming content, backups of everything on the player, etc. It's developed by Red Chair Software. Really nice when it's working well, but I just moved it to a new PC and have some trouble with it - no response from developer.
On my old PC it still works, and it's the best at it when it works.
music app
I've had my mda for a while, and so far the best music player apps IMO are ppod, wmp w/spb to play, mortplayer is cool also...
but I did try nero mobile and so far its not that impressive
Hello All,
Ever since I got my MDA my old Toshiba e800 has been used less and less. However I do use it when traveling for media (bigger vga screen).
I like WMP 10. But it is not available as a standalone download from MS. And my Toshiba only has WMP 9. Is there a way to extract the installation file from the Wizard ROM so that I can install it on my Toshiba?
Thanks
PS...Or is there an alternate media player out there that has the 2 main features I want from WMP 10? I like the library (it is very similar to the one used in the desktop version of WMP 11). And showing album art for each song played.
Thanks
So basically I have been using Mortplayer with the Vista theme (looks like WMP11 desktop). But I really don't like the way mort player organizes, or rather allows access to, your music. It is very confusing. And I want my Girlfriend to be able to use it with little fuss (she is not very technically inclined, nor does she want to be)
WMP 10 has the same library structure as WMP Desktop 11. She is already comfortable with that "Type" of structure...i.e. Access by:
All music or
Album or
Artist or
Playlist or
Genre etc...
I assume that I what I asked above is either not possible, or is a big no-no (extracting WMP 10 from Wizard Rom).... So....
Any ideas what to do here?
Thanks
Ok, well never mind here....WMP Mobile 10 will not play nice with a networked folder..... iT works fine for traveling but as soon as we want to use it around the house browsing our large networked media drive it shows it's limitations.
Back to mort player...Thanks any way
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?
Hi
I have a quite big and annoying problem that I hope I can get rid off...
When I listen to music through Coreplayer (version 1.3.0 6213) after a while, maybe 20-30 minutes the phone becomes lazy.. for example when entering the settings (personal,system,connections) the icons does not shows immediately, insteand I see the icons one by one... I have tried many ROMS but I still have this problem..
maybe Coreplayer is the problem but the RAM usage is normal and even when the phone becomes lazy the usage is still around 40%... and even after I close Coreplayer the phone is still lazy and I need to softreset to get it working normal...
so I wonder what the problem is? (maybe I will try a WM 6.5 ROM and see if it works better but I don't have time atm) atm I'm using itjes Touch-IT 7.1 Lite + SPB Mobile Shell 3.0...
thanks
at the moment, I've noticed that coreplayer isn't really 100% stable on the Xperia.
Sure it's had improvements, but I think windows media player works just fine =].

windows media player sucks big time, it's not even near of what Coreplayer can do thats why I don't use it, for example, when switching track with coreplayer I don't need to enter the program to do it, I just do it with the "next" button, and it have more fetures... anyone know another program similiar to Coreplayer that works with xperia?
Coreplayer is a media player and not an audio player. Sure, it can play music, but it's like wathing movies on your in-car gps, it can be done, but it's better to use a pmp... Use one of those:
Pocket Player
Pocket Music
Mort Player (the best)
Winamp for Windows Mobile
S2P (pretty good)
Cheers
It's a well known issue w/ Core Player > 1.24. That's why I still stick w/ 1.24.
you could just wait for winmo 6.5 to come out.. if ever.
Or you could flash a custom rom with winmo, from the "Titanium" homescreen, you can change songs by swiping and tapping.
(Music stops playing shortly after the HD2 screen turns off)
Anyone found a solution to this yet? Searched all the topics and there isn't a definitive solution. Tried to appled some AudioMan_Eng.cab fix but that didn't work.
Seems to only keep playing if I use windows media player I think.

I have the same problem. I think it has something to do with the album art update function. when i play a song i can see that it tries toget the album art for it. when that fails the song stops.
A
same problem album art problem plz somebody help...
this issue is extremely annoying. Something that seems so simple yet HTC manages to mess it up. This happened to me today and I've never experience this kind of problem with any other form of media player. This is unacceptable and it really is things like this that separates apple from its competitors.
This is starting to really piss me off, I just deleted my music folder and tried doing the syncing method through windows media player (thought maybe having more folders would help), that didn't do anything.
Reduced the amount of songs to 100 and that didn't do anything.
Tried installing different media players and they all have the same problem.. wow this is bull****

Have you re-formatted the card using the phones application?
I ended up using Mediamonkey to sync as I can specifically setup conversion rules. I have the paid version, I'm not 100% sure that Auto-conversion is part of the free version.
However everything is running great now.
