Streaming TV FULLSCREEN please!!!

Hi all. Has anyone tried streaming TV using WMP10 (& PocketstreamerPro) and managed to get it in FULLSCREEN? I'm really getting peeved off with a viewable image the size of a stamp!!
Videos are OK in TCPMP, but it doesn't support streaming TV.
Or does anyone know of any plug-ins for TCPMP which allow it to stream? really need some help here..... :?

The latest tcpmp beta (1.71b IIRC) support tv streaming and mms. You should give it a try. For other format, try PVplayer

Hi again. I'm struggling to find that version of tcpmp that you quoted. I can only find version 0.71. Is that the same? Probably not! Could you point me in the right direction of a download link please? Cheers.

I'm pertty sure 1.71 was a typo. Get the latest version here:
http://tcpmp.corecodec.org/about

Yes, sorry for this. The version 1 is planned soon, and we are still at zero versionning. BTW, PVplayer is only for operator coded TV or movies. TCPMP is suited for a lot of streaming channels, and can also guess the link of the stream if you provide it with the URL of the containing web page in the file open dialog.

You REALLY can stream Internet TV through TCPMP on wifi!!!

Hi again. I actually bought PocketstreamerPro, only to find it way too restrictive and quite useless (as WMP 10 only shows TV in a small window and I can't find a workaround for it).
I fiddled around with TCPMP to no end, and to no avail I might add. But then I checked back to find your response, which implies that you can definately stream through TCPMP using the 'File Open' menu. Well, as there was nothing to link to (I had no format for storing the URL), I couldn't do it.
So I found a website called TV4all.com and copied some of the URLs there and typed them into the URL bar in my browser, which opened up Windows media player on my desktop PC. There I saved it as a '.mru' playlist (also checked in associations in TCPMP in addition to HTTP and MMS) and copied that file onto my storage card. TCPMP could and did find this and presto! I'm now streaming in full screen to my betaplayer (it takes a while to actually start working though). I now have access to potentially hundreds of Internet TV channels! I will explore further, but is this the way you do it? or do you have a much simpler process? feedback is most welcome right about now!!
Thanks for your help thus far though.

thats because you're using mini while he's using a VGA device, the universal

The file open dialog is to input a mms:// adress, or the http:// of a webpage linking to your content. If you input the webpage, you will get after that the list of all available streams on this page.

Hi, I have a question...
I have this app called "Streaming Video" under Programs. I guess it was there ever since I had this. I havent used it though coz I dont know how. I wanted to try video streaming but I dont know which RTSP url to put.. WOuld you know anything about this? Thanks..
.... additional: i tried opening azn.tv and saigontivi thru the video streaming app and its not working..

Anyone got any good pages that just offer direct links to the feeds ? Nearly every site I find you have to go through multiple pages and some of them wont even show properly.

Streaming radio.

I want to stream radio to my Vario II.
Is there anything out there that will play .ram files? I know RealPlayer do not do a player for WM5's, so is there anything else?
Also, would this be frounded upon by the T-Mobile contract? Or are people streaming stuff without any warnings.

Not sure what files it plays, but resco radio is a very good radio streaming application. Check link below:
http://www.resco.net/pocketpc/radio/default.asp
Would this be frowned upon by T-mobile? Probably, but not received any complaints yet.

My Vario 2 came with that kinda odd 'streaming media' program, which fires up when I load an .sdp file... Maybe you could try download the ram file, renaming it to sdp and tapping on it to open it? That may work...
I know TCPMP doesn't support the RTSP protocol, but there's the off-chance that it's not an rtsp stream of course. Not too likely though. I have the installer for the last version of Real Player before they went over to exclusively provide their software for Nokias, I could chuck it your way if you want (I've had mixed success getting it to work though).

Thanks gyus ...

Allows streaming via WM and others.

Real Player for Universal should work
Just google real player pocket pc, its a version 1.1

... This one, you mean?

So, will that do the job?
I mean how can one possibly play .ram files in streaming?
My favourite radio uses this kind of files only, thus making all other options (Resco, TPCMC, etc.) useless.

Hello,
I have discovered many radio streams now require the latest flash to be installed but when I install flash 7 it breaks the work I've done with tcpmp and the flash plugins for youtube. Any way to avoid this situation? I have both Opera mobile and IE installed on my 8525. is there a way to allow opera to use flash 7 while maintaining my settings in ie for youtube. Thanks in advance for your help.

YouTube Mobile help

I have my AT&T 8525 loaded with the latest ROM from HTC but cannot get YouTube mobile (http://m.youtube.com) to work. PIE tried to open the .3gp file with RealPlayer, but RealPlayer doesn't recognize the format. Has anyone gotten YouTube mobile to work on their Hermes? How about ideas on how to get IE to open .3gp links in TCPMP?

I can take the m.youtube.com link and manually type it into the StreamingMedia.exe player that came on the phone and it plays.
If I click the link in IE or Opera I just get a big RTSP error.

Where can I find this StreamingMedia.exe player? How do you determine the link location? Are you using the AT&T 8525 ROM?

the only streamingmedia.exe i can find is for the built in xm radio...

There is a StreamingMedia icon when I go to Start->Programs.
When I pick About it says "StreamingMEdia for Pocket PC" Version 2.10h build 314.713

Is there a way to change the association of the file type so IE doesn't try to use RealPlayer but uses something that will play the media type like TCMP or any others?

There sure is! Check out this post on page three:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=312438&page=3
This guy tells you how to use sktools to change the rtsp file association. I did this and it works perfect now from PIE. Doesnt work from opera though.

Me Too
I just upgraded to the att rom but then i was trying m.youtube.com and click on the videos real one pops up. I didn't install any realone. Isn't it suppose to play using windows media player?

I wondered that as well as I have never installed the RealPlayer "Player" on my 8525. Nor do I have it in my uninstall list!

I Finally Found Out How to Get YouTube To Work![new]

On your wizard, go to this address: http://m.youtube.com
The videos load perfectly and work 100% using Internet Explorer (the videos automatically open in the streaming video player thing). I think YouTube just set up this site today(to test for the upcoming iPhone), but it works perfect on our wizards as well! Try it!

Nice, got there but when I try to play a video I get an unspecified error on Windows Media. Does this work with WM5 or I must install something?

I'm not sure about WM5, never tested it (i'm using WM6 XDA-MOBILE 6). When I click on a video, it opens in the streaming video player that was bundled with XM6.
Anyone else have luck? I got mine to work ^_^

Only works from certain cell providers!
Seems as though YouTube's only sharing the love with certain cell providers... I was able to successfully test the site using Cingular. The site didn't work using my 8125, Wifi & my local cable ISP!!!

Site loads Video does not on T-Mobile USA.

I just tried it on Faria's WM5 with wifi!! Works great!!

I can't get it to work. I've tried opening m.youtube.com and clicking on video opens media player 10. These are 3gp files (?). It just says "Unspecified error".
WM5 / MDA vario.

Even i got the same error with WM5.. anything else need to be downloaded..

Maybe we WM2005 users should install a codec or something? What does Faria's WM2005 ROM have? I'm on a spanish WM2005.

Post your provider and connection method.
Because Youtube and fodavone officially announced their service in NL so it might have to to with ip ranges or provider networks for it to work.
I checked it over T-Mobile NL and it worked BTW.
It indeed opened up in the streaming player that i found useless at first.
Running Faria Crossbow Real Thing ROM.

Faria's WM5 3.3 has streaming video installed. All I do is navigate to m.youtube with PIE and select a video, it automatically pops up streaming video and it plays.
I'm on Cingular/ATT and it works with WIFi and GPRS.

It has absolutely nothing to do with your provider. I tested on my cingular 8125 running XM6, on both T-mobile and on cingular and it works fine (although I recommend using it through wi-fi, as the videos can take a while to load if you're stuck with a slow gprs connect).

I have the player installed, but only get audio distorted) no video. Is there a URL I can put into the RTSP box to get both audio and video?
8125

So, unless someone can tell us what fario's WM5 has in it... I'm personally stuck using this method that I just stumbled upon this morning. I guess the only ugly part is that I have to copy the ID part out of the URL, and past it into the little 'youtubedownload' program. Then, explore over to the downloaded file to play it in TCPMP.
I wish, I wish, It would pop up from my browser after clicking it from there, like fario's code does. (what programs does it use?)
The 3 files in the link below are the 2 plugins, that need to go into the plugin directory of TCPMP, and then the .exe that is the download util. .Yea, Ugly.

resco radio only supports mp3 streams, and some aac streams with resco codec-pack.
i have no idea any other player like tcpmp or any else supports mp4a or not.
anyone else might answer this.

FWIW it does play in coreplayer just fine and it might in TCPMP

The best website for online radio is:
http://thestreamcenter.com/pda/
You choose your state, and listen to your local streaming station, at least whoever has a streaming site. Works very well, in fact I've been listening to my local station for almost 4 hours, no drop! Only problem I've found (tried on one station only) is that you can't create a playlist file through the media player. The best thing to do is, once you've found your station of choice, tap and hold on the streaming link and save it as a web favorite. Then once you open that favorite link, I use QuickMenu so it's very easy, it will go to the page and about 3 seconds later the stream will play.
Also, found a Live TV site:
