I have a situation where my windows media player keeps saying this when I want to play a video file ie a 3gp file when it played fine before -
"No combination of intermediate filters could be found to make the connection"
Any suggestions ? Or is the wmp cab available in the extended ROM and can I run it from there if it's available?

My voicemail-emails have attached GSM compressed wav files.
Of course that's good because uncompressed files would be much too large, but how can I playback those files?
Can I somehow download additional wav codecs for the pocketpc or is there a good player which can do it?
You only get those MP3 file players and nothing else...
I've tried BetaPlayer (pretty good divx player) which supports wav files, and I get the message "Audio Codec not found".
Problem solved
I just noticed that the WAV file was added to my pocket outlook notes since I put it in the My documents folder.
It can be played as an outlook note.
However, strange that pocket windows media player and other players don't support it.
windows media player dont support any non ms format apart from mp3
and this goes for both audio and video
dont know the format so i cant help i would prob search around for as many players i could using google looking for that feature if i were you
otherwise i suppose you can find a converter for the pc wihtout too much problems
Hi
I have all my songs on my storage card. I can play them fine directly from the storage card, going through the file explorer.
However they dont work when in windows media and using the playlists, even though I can see them all. I get the error message "Cannot play the file. The file is either corrupted or the player does not support the format you are trying to play"
Any ideas??
Thanks

I've given up on Windows Media and now use TCPMP for playing my audio files. One of the main reasons I dislike Windows Media is because it's such a pain to create playlists. It seems like they went out of their way to make it difficult. TCPMP let's you create playlists on the device very easily. My audio files are a mix of mp3s and .wma files and it plays them all just fine.
TCPMP also plays lots of other media types, but that's all I'm using it for at this point.
And it's free! (Though you can give a donation if you find it useful )
You can also try WinamPAQ v1.0 Beta[/url]. Also free, if you used Winamp on the PC before, this is a fine copy. Works great also.

hello,
i've installed TCPMP v.0.66 on my Himalaya (XDA II). prior to the installation, tapping directly on a video file (e.g. mp4) causes it to be opened with the default player - "album". however, after the installation.. tapping on a file causes my unit to soft reset. as well, opening the "album" program thru the programs folder causes the same soft reset. there seems to be no problem with running TCPMP and playing video files with it.
i'm guessing the reset is caused by some conflict between the two software and i believe (and hope) there's some other solution other than uninstalling the TCPMP.
please help.. thanks in advance.
install an mp4 codec man..... or an mp4 player.... TCMP only plays mp4 codecs like avi, mpeg and mp3
thanks for the reply man.. my particular concern is my "album" program not being able to coexist with TCPMP. do you mean that installing an mp4 codec would solve this "conflict" between the 2 programs?
thanks again
the file must be compatible with the software
the files i'm trying to open are compatible with both "album" and "TCPMP".. it's just that once TCPMP is installed, "album" crashes at start up..
TCPMP non-conflict
I'm assuming that you're tapping on the media file you wish to view from either File Explorer or another similar file manager, which, of course, will open it in Album or Media Player (which is the default application assigned to open such files). Try opening TCPMP v0.66 FIRST. Tap on File, Open, then your desired media file. Then, you will get your desired result.
my 8525 (hermes) with wm6 played wav voicemail attachments from my phone provider (optimum voice) fine until recently. now media player doesnt recognize the wav file, pocket player just sits there, tcpmp says it does not play codec 0031 and so on.
optimum claims they have not changed the coding on the email attachments.
i have no problem playing these files on my desktop or laptop with windows media player 10 and or 11.
any ideas how I can fix this????
I am having the same exact problem. Did you find a solution to this?

a wav can be many things
i would look in properties on the pc
as to what codec the wav is pcm is the base codec of
wavs so it's not likely to be that
been a while since i have been here. yes i found a solution. it was to hardreset and then restore. it worked fine for a long time, then i used a program and "cleaned" my registry and since then it has not worked. the prior solution did not work either since my backups postdated the error creation (i guess). so i am again looking for a solution that i suspect will be a registry fix. anyone got any ideas? if it plays and then doesnt play, a full restore it plays again etc, it cannot be due to specific wav characteristics or encoding. i has to be some file corruption (i suspect to the wav itself either by changing it since no program will play it, or by not doing some additional processing during saving)
It seems like the basic music player doesn't support streams, there doesn't appear to be any support in windows media player for streams either...
In the end I searched for some tools and GSplayer came up as supporting streams, so i tried that and copied the CAB install file to the storage card, it showed up in the start menu...I can run it and open a URL or local .pls file and it starts to stream...you see the percentage buffer quickly shoot up to 100% but then nothing happens...no audio, nothing.
I'm basically trying to play audio from an internet radio station I use a lot at home (xfm.nl) if you click "Luister Live" on the left you'll see shortcuts for all the streams.
Can anyone help? My settings are OK I think, I can get to the internet and recieve my email and use all the web based apps, so I don't think its a connection thing...maybe GSPlayer just doesn't support the HD2?
Try Skyfire browser.

I have WunderRadio but since you know the stream you want to play coreplayer will open it.
I just tried this using Skyfire and GSPlayer.
I clicked on the Winamp mobile link, and it downloaded the .pls stream to my storage card. GSPlayer opened automatically. I've set GSPlayer to own .pls files, so maybe that would help.
Just tried clicking on the downloaded .pls file and it also opens up GSPlayer. Hope that helps! At least you know that it can work
I want to know something fairly similar, is it possible to make a player stream a song or file instead of having to download it first. Sometimes with very large files I just want to play it and let it download as it plays instead of waiting for the entire file to download before being able to play it.
Try Groovemobile or nanogroove.
I just upgraded from a Touch Pro 2.
I have a few shoutcast .pls files I used to open and stream in coreplayer 1.3.6 build 7427 with no problems.
I have changed from o2 to orange but all other streaming seems ok (e.g nanogroove/groovemobile/youtube/myplayer etc).
On the HD2 when I try to open the .pls files I get an unknown file format (0106) error or sometimes coreplayer just crashes.
Anyone know how to get coreplayer working with there files again?
I enjoy accessing last.fm using the skyfire browser.
Try SPB Radio, pretty good!
I just wanted to thank everyone posting suggestions, I will be trying some of them out soon
There is also coreplayer which handles .pls and .m3u file attachments.
