www.tv-links.co.uk site and Windows Mobile - Networking

Don't know if this is the right forum to post this...
Anyway, some of you may be familiar with the site above. If you aren't check it out... it's great. Full lenth movies, shows, cartoons, music videos, whatever you would get on your regular TV, neatly organized based on titles and types.
I make extensive use of this site from my computer, and the shows encoded with divx can be saved on the hard drive. However, I seem to be unable to use this very site from my Wizard. Rather, the site opens just fine, but none of the linked content actually plays. I know this is a plugin issue of sorts, I just haven't been able to either find the right ones or get around it somehow.
Tried all browsers... Opera, PIE, Minimo and Netfront... nothing...
If anyone out there knows about it or has a workaround, please post it.

The thing is, TV-Links hosts links to the sites that actually have the video, and these sites vary. For example, a lot of the anime is on veoh.com, so you'd probably need plugins for the individual players.

Can u watch videos from youtube?? I can't.. so i maybe think when i could see vids from youtube.com i would CAN BE able to watch vids from tv.links I REALLY REALLY WANT THAT TO HAPPEN!!

This is the choice from our XDA's: http://m.youtube.com (I.E and Streaming Media Player)will do the rest.They are still uploading videos,so if you try to watch the same videos as they have on youtube.com it's not gonna be possible,but little by little we'll get it.
By the way it's also impossible for me to watch the videos from that website in the UK(which seems to be way cool. ;-)

streaming video, not youtube

I hope this hasn't been covered before. I DID search, so I apologize if it has directly been addressed.
I have some questions concerning streaming video. I have tcmp and have no problems with youtube, but I've got a list of some websites here that I believe are rstp. I tried the htc player from here, but still can't get these sites to load. Some of the sites on these links are network stations (NBC, Fox, etc), so I think it would be awesome to be able to watch these.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Another site that I'd like to play, but it's divx and I just can't get it to work

How did you get youtube and TCPMP to work together? I never understood how to get it to work, I have the flash plugin and TCPMP installed but whenever the Youtube video opens in TCPMP it is so jumpy and laggy that its unwatchable, and it never works in full screen.
problem seems to be you're using an MDA (wizard).
The MDA is more than capable of playing streaming media, but you have to remember that youtube videos are not encoded for the low-bandwidth and slow-cpu of a phone.
The Titan (Mogul, which forum you're posting in) has double the CPU power of the Wizard, and can connect over 4x as fast to the internet.
It works just fine on the mogul/Titan.
what are you talking about? I have both the Wizard and the Mogul from Sprint, I am talking about using my Mogul to play youtube videos using EVDO. I know that the Wizard cant play the videos. But I don't know how to setup youtube on my phone.
Go to http://www.gopckt.com/ they have the mobile version of youtube that works really well with tcpmp. all the youtube videos are available unlike the m.youtube.com version
Check this forum. Forget mobile youtube, it blows http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/ppc-6800-xv6800/90808-full-youtube-access.html

I've also been looking for decent streaming media links and applications especially ones that are free of charge. I happened to come across this one which I found on the Microsoft site. https://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/domore/msnbc.mspx It only plays MSNBC network media but it works quite nicely. Videos also seem to be formatted specifically for wide screen. They look awesome and they stream rather quickly in my location. Check it out, I think you may like this app and even if you don't at least it was FREE.

What Happend To All The Porn Sites On The Flash Video Bundle?
None Of Them Work Anymore ;/
They still work - it's just that you've gone blind
I would guess they were affected by stage6 going down like just about every other streaming divx site out there. Don't worry, it's only a matter of time before someone else picks up the slack. Veoh is trying to, but I'm not sure if they host adult content.
Is there a Flash Program that I can down load for my PPC Mogul 6800 that will enable me to watch the vidoes on www.youporn.com ? I had a few flash programs but none of them work for that site...when I go there from my phone and click on a video it says "you need flash to view this video"..is there already a cab for this?
Go to Ampland.com..click movie theater from right... get an account.. stream
thousands of vids..from all kinds of catigories.. the vids stream right into WMplayer..works great!!

I jus viewed that site..and even set up an account but you have to "buy time" to look at something...That sucks..Thanx but no thank you..I dont want to pay for porn when there are many sites out there where you can view them for free like www.youporn.com ...that site is 100% free only things is that I cant view it from my phone because it tells me that I need "Flash Player" to view the videos. I just dont know which flash player I need for it to work. does anyone else have any ideas?
Sorry, duplicate.
I have the same problem with youporn. I have set TCPMP as my default player and set it as the player of FLV files, but it won't play them on that site.
I can download the videos to my storage card and they play fine from there with TCPMP. I think it would work if there is a way to tell PIE to use TCPMP for FLV files online, but I don't know how to do that, or if it's possible.

Viewing flash movies?

I'd like to be able to watch those full length movies like on certain sites (not sure if I can mention them there) but they are in flash media formats instead of wma formats. Is there some way to make those work?
Sorry for the newbie questions. I've been searching quite a bit. One term I'm trying to figure out is what is "making a kitchen"
Also does anyone know why the frame rate hack for the video camera says not to go above 19fps? Also how do you change to avi and other formats? I see them in the registry, but not as an option in the GUI.
Thanks guys.

You can try Flash video and Tcmp prolly the best out their and "Making a kitchen" is making a rom. But u MUST install Tcmp and flash video bundle on the Place and instal tcmp FIRST ill post the files for u xD
Sry i keep getting "database error" when i try to attach.
And mind sending me the site
http://www.sprintmogul.net/FAQ/HaizisMogulHacks.aspx
Ok I have the DCD kitchen now and I've downloaded the tcpmp but it doesn't do flash movies. I cant find the "flash video" program your talking about.
Try searching this "Skunkworks Flash video bundle" on the overall forum not just titan.
You're probably talking about a site that sounds like jukebox. I won't name names, but that site also does not work for me on my phone. The flash video bundle WILL work for google videos, youtube, some others including some cheezy porn sites but that's about it.
I actually use ORB to steam media right from my pc to my phone. MUCH nicer. If you have a hardware based tv capture card, you can actually watch tv on your phone AND change channels.

YouTube Downloading

Hi, i know the touch diamond has a you tube application, but does it allow you actually download the videos and watch it later without any connections. or is there any other application that will allow me to download youtube videos??
Thanks !
Well I know you can paste the youtube url of the video on a site like keepvid.com and it lets u dl the file in mp4 format, and use the built in video player to play it smoothest
No, the YouTube application does not allow one to save the videos to the device, though I can say it is a great little application. They seem to have kept it rather basic, yet done a great job with it.
You have access to what I believe is all the videos from YouTube, so not like with the iPhone where you had videos compressed and put into a format suitable for iPhone.
With the YouTube application, you can Bookmark your favourite videos, search videos, see lists of top rated, featured and most popular videos, you can send someone links to the videos by email (not really looked at that feature) and there is the setting where you can have it on fast download or higher quality streaming and then there is auto which I think is based upon your internet connection speed.
To watch the videos, there is no better application out there that I am aware of. I also use CorePlayer occasionally too.
As the previous poster mentioned, you can access YouTube through your web browser, take the URL, copy and paste it in at Keepvid.com and then save the file to your device that way.

[Q] Mobo player

I just downloaded mobo player and the codec file for it. I wanted to play video's directly on the internet on my xoom. I thought downloading this would help me but video's are still not playing?
I do not understand the media directory thing is there anything I am missing.
I picked media directory to be my downloads in my Astro file. This is right out of the box. I have done nothing to unlock or root this device.
Can anyone please explain to me what I need to do to play video's from a web page on the net. For example I went to a site for Las Vegas wanted to play video of Terry Feder show would not play?
I'm pretty good at following directions. I understand PC very well just learning about cell phones and tablets.
I only downloaded the codec file because the video still wasn't playing.
I do not want to do anything that will mess up my xoom?
Sorry I think I should have posted this in questions forum.
Did you try tapping and holding the video you want to play then selecting soft decoding? You have to do that to a large majority of videos for the xoom.
Yes I did. When the video appears on the screen there is a small blue dice in the center with a ? on it. There seems to be lots of videos that won't play. Is there anything in the codec file that I need to change. I saw the soft decoding for one of the video extensions?
Just found something that says default using soft decoding in settings I checked it. Still no luck. You tube videos play fine
When I tap the video the screen turns light blue but nothing comes up and their are no options available to select.
you said your trying to play videos from a site. What site and what video format? Link?
Go to metacafe.com any video it does not work. That is just one of the sites. I cannot tell what the video format is? How can i see that. On the right hand bottom of my screen it says autoplay ON. I do not know if that is from Mobo app or something else.
took a spin around the world wide web and seems the videos on your site metacafe are FLV files.
go to the market.. install one of these in the list and see if any will work.
not sure which ones are compatible with the xoom so just go in and check on the tech details. better yet go there with your xoom so it will filter out which ones will work.
you can also just search "flv player" w/o quotes in the market and see what you come up with.
https://market.android.com/search?q=flv+player&so=1&c=apps
That site seems to use a bunch of different kinds of video. Hulu videos wont work, but the flash videos will if you install flash, obviously. Moboplayer is for mp4, avi, mpeg, and other types of video commonly not found streaming on websites.
Just called Motorola and figured out that Flash Player needed to be downloaded. Do I feel stupid. I thought it came with it and was on it when I got it. I then went back to the site and the video played.
Do you think MoboPlayer will interfere with anything on my tablet. Should I remove it?
Or should I leave it. Don't even know if it works on the xoom. It did not work to get the FLV file working that is supports. Any input would be appreciated.
keep it. it can play other movie formats.
