I installed MortPlayer on Trinity. The sound is much better than WMedia Player(MP has equalizer ), the screen turns completely off D ), the player is free... BUT I can only control volume from my Plantronics 590A buttons.
Do you know if there is any way to map the headset buttons to the player? In WMP I could use the headset buttons to play/pause, skip track and adjust volume.

Not the answer you are looking for but FYI you can turn the screen off with WMP too: you just need to map the "screen off" command to a hardware button.
Where do I find this 'screen off' command? It's not in the list of actions that I can map to a button. Did you map it on a Trinity?

Very good tip! Thanks!
PS: perhaps you can also tell me where the WMP equaliser is? That would be a nice suprise too.

1. there is no equalizer in WMP (see my latest article on Windows Mobile media players, also posted to the General forum in here)
2. Are you using the LATEST (last september) version of MP? It's only in it that AVRCP has been implemented. Earlier versions don't support AVRCP at all, as has also been pointed out in my AVRCP-related articles (General forum)
3. if you still can't make it work, some other alternate players do support AVRCP and have built-in equalizer. (see my Media Player roundups / articles.)

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 like to listen music by CorePlayer and a bluetooth headphone, but I cannot control CorePlayer by using AVRCP, every time when I push the "Next" or "Previous" button on headphone, it will control the TF3D Music Player automatically, I can only use to turn volume up and down with CorePlayer.
How can I enable it or how to disable AVRCP by default using TF3D Music Player ?
Search the forum. There's another very recent thread on this.

AVRCP works for coreplayer just turning coreplayer parameter on: Windows Media Player Mobile A2DP Plugin
Friends,
I own the Motorola S9HD Bluetooth Stereo Headphones and noticed when I launch S2P, WM media player launches also.
Any ideas why this occurs? If I don't have the BT headset on and launch S2P by itself, no problems.
Please any ideas will be appreciated.
Thank You,
Tvos
so no one here has any ideas on this?

I think it's from the S9s. When i launch Coreplayer and press the play button, it starts WMP :\ This wasn't the case with my regular S9s.

You may want to enable CorePlayer's options of taking control of WMP plugins. S2P doesn't support Bluetooth controls I thought?
AC explained it to me via prv msg that its a part of WM core engine which automatically loads at S2P execution. No way to disable it..
Case closed!

So...
WMP sucks... its slow to switch songs... tough to create playlists and freezes up my Ozone whenever I am listening to music and get a txt/email.
However one thing it does do is allow me to use the song select buttons on my stereo bluetooth headset.
What I am looking for is an alternative to WMP that allows the use of those buttons.
I really like Pocket Tunes - clean interface, easy to use... wicked fast song switching but it doesnt recognize the buttons on the Headset.
I havent been able to get Core Player to work on it... keeps giving errors.
Any suggestions or rec's would be greatly appreciated!!!!!
Try Kinoma Play.
i think either vlc or mplayer also has a windows mobile (though it may be in beta)

Pocket Player will use the buttons on the headset, but you MUST go into comm manager and set your bluetooth to stereo and hands free each time prior to using Pocket Player. This happens with some headsets for some reason.
My Jabra BT8010 set works fine without having to go into comm man each time, but my old Motorola set did not.
I 2nd Kinoma Play. Easy UI, good features, smooth operation.

coreplayer make a problem with my A2DP bluetooth headset..
controlling wmp while locked or in another app
I am a newbie coming from blackberry & i have a question. On the bberry, if the phone is locked u can still control the music player by using the volume up/down keys to change volume & change tracks. You can also control the volume & change tracks when not even in the media player screen...for example if i switch over to look at my email....is there a modification that will make this possible on a wm6x phone?
Core player, TCPMP, or HTC Audio manager are good. I made a Titanium HTC Audio Manager panel for my latest ROM. You have to enable it in CHome Config.
Will the voice recognition software work with other players?

Hi guys,
I really hope you can help me!
I have finally found me a decent music player - Pocket Player. Now my problem just is that the volume only has the 5 steps that the phone offers when using the hardware buttons. Is there a way to "activate" the volume control from the audio booster when using the Pocket Player? Or any other volume control with smaller steps than 20%?
Thanks in advance - and a happy new year!

If you open the volume "page" (by pressing one of the volume buttons), you can change the volume on screen by sliding your finger up and down. It's still quite large increments, but a lot smoother than just using the buttons alone.
And a happy new year to you too
True, thanks. But it is still 20% steps. The AudioBooster has 7% steps. I have tried some add-on volume controls but they either don't work or still has the large steps.
Maybe it is possible to let the AudioBooster control the volume when using Pocket Player or other players - the HTC Music Player does, right??

It's not 20% - each of the 15 bars is a volume level, so they're about 6(ish)% each. I can set the volume on mine like this, and have done on my last 3 HTC phones.
Oh, now I get it. You're right. That will work, but not excactly easy "on the run". Maybe it's possible to make the volume button do one line and not 3-4 at a time?!

Yeah, that would be a much better solution, but at least there's a "fix" until some friendly dev makes something to replace it
Now I found a solution:
Got the class name for Pocket Player, which is "Pocket Player" - used the program GetClass.zip from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=581137
Created a string reg key called "ClassName" in:
HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\3rdPartyAPClass\Pocket\
with the value: "Pocket Player" (the previously mentioned class name).
Now I have the same volume control as in WMPlayer and HTC Music Player...

I'm trying to replicate this with CorePlayer, but there isn't natively a CP folder in the 3rdPartyAPClass. I created the string reg key in the root of the 3rdPartyAPClass but it doesn't seem to make a difference. Anyone have any ideas?
EDIT: Sorry, was being stupid. I didn't add it as a key. Anyway got it added but it doesn't seem to work. I tried Nitrogen as well and that didn't seem to work. Has anyone else managed to get this registry hack working?
EDIT 2: Got Coreplayer working. Once I unticked use system volume in advanced preferences all was good. Nitrogen still isn't working however. Ideas??
