The best multimedia players!!!

Hi guys,
I'm looking for the best mm player for my Jam...
I'd like a player that:
- can works in background
- can play all the mm format (audio/video) such as: mp3, ogg, mpeg, avi,wma divx ecc...
- the player have to stop when I'll receive a call or text and then play again
- the player have to don't use the standard configuration fot the power management (es: I configure my Jam to shutdown after 3min. but if I play mp3 I don't want this!)
The Win media player 10 it's very nice for example but how can i add the plugin fro divx, ogg and all the other fromat?
Any other mm player application?

try this

Think TCPMP is the best.

I think that Betaplayer and TCPMP are the same now

Yeah, TCMP is the newer version of Betaplayer. Dunno why they renamed it, but oh well. Whaever floats their boat!

A good music player is MortPlayer. A good video player is the already mentioned TCPMP. You can also find plugins for the WM to play Divx movies and so on but I would recommend the above combination.

Man, except for TCPMP (aka BETAPLAYER), there aren't any mediaplayers that support all those features...

is there a way to play AAC file (ipod) with WMP 10
I'd like to find a player that can play AAC file (ipod).
I tried Nero ShowTime Mobile which is good but doesn't stop correctly when you get a phone call
Is there a way to play AAC file with WMP10?

Hi guys!
I tried TCPMP and it's really nice but...
I'd like the player in "pause" when I receive an incomming call and with TCPMP I can't find the option to configure it... seems to continue to play but with no sound.
How does it works?

Talking about TCPMP.
A fiend of mine gave me an MP4 movie file which he had on his PSP.
I figured as TCPMP plays MP4's it would be as simple as transferring it onto my device and playing via TCPMP.
It works in the sense that i get great video, but there is no audio.
I get the following message at the beginning:
AUDIO CODEC (MPEG4 AAC AUDIO) Not supported by the player. Decoder was removed from the official install package.
Is there anything I can do to resolve the audio with this player. Or should I use another player?

That problem would be fixed if you had the same codec that Namelous is after (3 posts up). TCPMP comes with the MP4 video decoder, but need the AAC audio decoder to run, as most MPEG-style movies are encoded with separate video and audio. If you were to rip a movie to your hard drive from a dvd to Mpeg 2, more often than not you'd have audio encoded in MP3, so you'd need both the Mpeg 2 and MP3 codecs on your system.
Good luck finding an AAC codec for PPC. If you do, please let me know as I've been looking too!

What about Soundexplorer? (obviously not for video...). It also records sound (much players don't). I like it very much.

Looks like PocketMusic has an AAC plugin.
Haven't tried this program yet, but would love feedback if anyone does (like does it pause music on an incoming call, how is the equilizer, bass boost, overall usability, etc.?)
Thanks in advance!

Okay, I went ahead and downloaded the trial version on my MDA Pro and like it a lot! Doesn't play movies of course, but the equilizer is pretty good, and it pauses your tunes on incoming calls. Other features like mapping to the hardware buttons, big finger-sized screen buttons, skins, cross-fading, and an alarm clock make it nice.

AAC Plugin...
Google give:

It's illigal in some countries, but when you are not living in them you can try this.

*.3gp player for imate jam needed

need 3gp player from imate jam

PLayer
Hi, you should try this player. Its the best i've ever seen. It plays almost anything and plays it GOOD. Built in benchmark and so on.

When i use Pocket hack master i can playback video at 104 Mhz !! This way i can watch much longer than at normal speed. :shock:
(hmm 3gp isnt in the list but yesterday somebody bluetooth me an 3gp file and it played it)

The album program already installed on the jam will play 3gp.

If you are looking to play it on your PC, QuickTime Player works.

The album program is work work good its to slow and many file not play when i play with album program my jam auto soft reset...............

MP3/Media Player

I know this has probably been listed in the past, but what MP3/Media Player do you use?
If possible, include a link to where it can be downloaded.

Is there any player with the balance meter (left/right)?

Sure TCPMP is the best at playing all sort of media
When I can't see a video on my pc, 80% chances are that TCPMP will read it :lol:
And it has a lot of features eg. the speed of playback, equalizer.. With the last one u can even boost up the loudspeaker volume!
Finally, it's rather simple to use: with hotkeys for everything u can do anything...
Only drawback is poor quality of 3gp playback and no midi at all: but I'm using album app for these :wink:
Saluti, MocciJ

PocketMusic for mp3's (skinable and has a nice equaliser function) and BetaPlayer for video (simple and I convert everything to DivX and it handles them with no probs)

Are yo able to playback fullsize Divx files smoothly in TCPMP.
I have a Magician and if I stream 720x480 divx video over wifi on playback from a SD card the video will always stutter. I get about 10s and then it pauses. Seems like a buffer issue.
Are there any tweaks for TCPMP or will overclocking the Magician help?

TCPMP for videos and MortPlayer for MP3s with my A2DP headset.

Gsplayer by greensoftware [freeware]. Turns screen automatic off, functions can be mapped to hardware buttons.

full sized 700mb divx movie files play fine running from SD on my magician (using tcpmp)
But ill normally resize and reencode, but it is handy being able to run stuff without encoding first, if theres not time to do etc.

Gapless MP3 playback

Has anyone found an audio playback utility which will give gapless MP3 playback on the XDA Exec? I've tried WMPlayer, TCPMP, Pocket Player and GS Player. I'm beginning to think that the PPCs RAM is too small, but how can this be when I have 20+ Mb Program memory free with one running? :roll: :?

I found a posting on Brighthand http://forum.brighthand.com/showthread.php?t=219525 to a program called iPlay (http://iplay.40th.com/) which apparently had the ability to do gapless playback.
Haven't tried it myself, so I can't vouch for it.
[edit] Idiotic site doesn't seem to work on Opera, but does display on IE6

Pocketmusic has it. http://www.pocketmind.com/pmfp.htm

Then, you don't understand what gapless means. If 2 Songs on a CD are mixed together, without a small secound of silence, you will not hear the change from track01 to track02. Normaly if you grab the 2 Tracks into mp3 files you can play this 2 files maybe in Windows Media Player 10 for Windows XP and you will also have this clean run over from track01 to track02. On my MDA Pro I cant have this clean run in WMP Mobile and TCPMP ... haven'd tryed other players.

FLAC Audio and the Diamond

Servus @ all,
end of the week i have my xda diamond
I have read many Threats about the Diamond in this Great Forum.
My Favorit Audio Codec is FLAC and my simple question it is Possible to Play FLAC Audio Files with my Diamond ?
No Windows Mobile 6 Version of Foobar or VLC exist, only a FLAC Codec for Windows CE.
Regards

Conduits Pocket Player has a FLAC plugin. It's a nice player too, probably worth the money.

CorePlayer plays FLAC too.
Built-in Media Player doesn't. (of course)

I play FLAC with Core player but the sound isn´t so good I think there´s something with decoding..and I tryied different files with same results. When I converted these files to wma the sound was better

i guess both chipset and audio-driver of the diamond aren't worth the wasted space with FLACs. even mp3s sound a lot (!) worse than on my 5 year old ipod mini.

Got no problem with sound quality of mp3s or wma..and don´t think that ipod is better And about FLAC still hope that it´s an issue of codec and not HW

I haven't done a blind test yet but I think FLAC sounds better than mp3 in Pocket Player.

Naturally it should sound better I tryied only Coreplayer n there is some little distorsion will try pocket player

Servus @ all,
THX for the Informations, about FLAC and the diamond.
Soundquality
I think the secret of FLAC is the higher Bitrate MP3 Bitrates are even lower.
This can be the Problem why the Audioquality by Playing FLAC with the Diamond
is not so good.
CPU Power has the diamond but i think it is a codec problem.
When i get my diamond this week i try this self
Best Regards @ all

So now I tryied Pocket player with Flac pocket player plugin 1.24 n it seems that it plays clear Now I only played one file so will testing more, but this one seems good for now
edited: I´m pretty sure that HW in Diamond is capable of flac decoding!!

Hmm. Strange. I always use CorePlayer on my Raphael, and FLAC seems to play fine for me.
