First of all I tried search this, but with no results.
On Vario II, is it possible to use basically any mp3 song as an alarm (wake up, notification)?
Love to wake up with a favourite song rather than the irritating default tunes...!
What strings did you use as a search?

reverts to Default...
thanks. I put couple .wav files to the windows folder. they now appear in the drop down list in alarms, but when I click the wav I want it quickly automatically reverts to Default sound... weird?!
I try always my best to search answers before I post... don't know why didn't spot that one. thanks again.
maybe your WAV is not supported. What I usually do is run the WAV in Windows' soundrecorder and convert it or save as to PCM 22.050 Khz, 16Bit, Mono for alerts/system sounds.

You can use mp3 files directly - no need to convert to .wav. Just make sure that the extension ".mp3" is *not* associated with any program other than Windows Media Player. Many music players do associate themselves with .mp3 files during installation.
Also, the mp3 you want to use should be in either the \Windows or the \Windows\Ring folder.

I associated .mp3 with windows media player but still cannot change ringtone. I used "total commander" to do association is there any place I have to do association...
I have created some ringtones with Vito ringtone editor but they're not working.
Do I have to activate the phone to use mp3's or something?
Any advice is appreciated
Thanks, Dean
just put mp3 in the dir /windows/rings
be sure to have windows media player as the default player for mp3 files, then put your ringtones in My Ringtones in My Documents folder either on Main Memory or in storage card.

I think the problem is that I have core player as the deafault player. Now the thing is, I've just spent 1/2 hour looking through menus and cant seem to return Windows media player as the default. Sounds basic but I cant find it - can anyone help here?
Do I just uncheck all of the file associations in core player ?
Thanks, Dean
yup, just uncheck the tick mark in front of mp3 in core player, and don't let any other audio player take the association of mp3 files. When no player is associated to mp3 files, then media player is the default player.
I found this post online where people have the same problem as me:
http://www.futurehardware.in/568121.htm
Surely I can make windows media the default player without resorting to a hard reset.
Can anyone help with this please?
Cheers, Dean

I've been thinking along those lines too.
Any recommendations for software to do the conversion?

That's possible yes:
HTC FAQ Page
Simple answer: Add a image file (in JPeG) to the folder you store the album in and call the file folder.jpg (you may hide it if you want).
One thing: You need to re-add the files to the player, meaning all files you have in your current playlist (on the TF3D page) will not get updated untill you reselect them.

no it doesn't work. at least for me.
look what i am doing:
1. i set my usb connection as disk drive
2. i load to my winamp the songs from album Crises - Mike Oldfield and with winamp i download the artwork from internet named "Mike Oldfield-Crises.jpg"
3. i connect my hd to my laptop and copy into folder Music from my sdcard the folder crises. inside this folder i have the album "Crises - Mike Oldfield" and the "Mike Oldfield-Crises.jpg"
4. on my sdcard i rename "Mike Oldfield-Crises.jpg" artwork as "crises.jpg"
5. set my usb connection asa activesync
6. start tf3d music player and wait until it finds the new album
7. after a while it finds it but the artwork is not displayed
please tell me what am i doing wrong!
thank you!
You have to name the artwork folder.jpg
Not the name of the folder, not the name of the artist. It actually has to be called:
folder.jpg
That's f-o-l-d-e-r-.jpg
Weird i know but it does work.
meanwhile i figured out myself.
but thank you anyway!
Keep in mind that TF3D player doesn't use the file folder.jpg to display the image. It uses a file named hTC_AM_AlbumArt.jpg. If it's not present but there is a file named folder.jpg, TF3D player will create a file hTC_AM_AlbumArt.jpg from it.
Therefore you can create your AlbumArt directly under the name hTC_AM_AlbumArt.jpg.
(however, WMP still uses folder.jpg, therefore I've kept both).
But why don't use mp3 artwork tag to display album artwork ?
Also eventhough you have hTC_AM_AlbumArt.jpg in that folder, TF3D music player sometime never display the albumart.
TF3D music player suck.
Still like itunes that create playlist easily by drag n drop.
Even I create the playlist manually, it sometime didn't work.
Hi! Can anyone say me how to create playlists in Media Panel and Windows Media Player?
I know I can create a playlist and add single tracks to it in Media Panel, but I want to put in the playlist whole folder. Help pls
use any player on PC, select tracks and savelist as m3u
But I have music on X1. Is it possible to make a playlist with folders in X1? Most SE phones have easy setup of playlists... Even if its HTC made with WinMo it shouldnt make problems with music...
Would like to know the format that I can use to pay with home tab music player?
Where should I save the mp3 file in order for the music file to be available for selection? Currently I can play it by using media player and locate the file to open.
I normally put mp3's on \Storage card\Music.
Default music player and S2P both normally play such files...
