WMP 10 Today Plugin

Does anyone know of a Windows Media Player plugin for the today screen that works with version 10 of WMP. THe PHM plugin doesn't work with 10. Also I tried other programs like pocket music but they have bad integration with the operating system and voice command.
Thanks,
Daniel

Here it is...
WMP 10 plugin like IPOD with today screen plugin and portuguese operators configuration. If you do noy need install the 3 operators cab...inside

Thanks- I installed the .CAb but the today plugin only says "Play media files"- is it supposed to have controls- like Play, Stop , Next etc...

The Today Screen plugin opens WMP 10 with a IPOD Screen and on the screen, on the sides you have BIG controls that you can use .

I was looking for a plugin that allows you to control WMP from the today screen. Thanks anyway- also- i have a better Ipod skin that I uploaded here:

I accidently ran the optimus /cab and now my connections are screwed up-
how do I remove it?

FOUND ONE!!!
SPB Just released a perfect WMP Today plugin for WMP 10!!

very simple no control on what to play. just play/pause next/prev and vol up/down it would be nice if we could atleast select a folder or playlist. everytime i start it, it plays my WMA tones! hahaha o well.

Ipod skin
Thanks for the very cool iPod Skin.

Good find, thanks

Why don't you give mortplayer a try, the today plugin for is is great

I have to say that anything that's not WMP just isn't good for the pocket pc (in my opinion) because of the lack of integration with the OS. For example, when I get a call it stops my music, then when i'm finished it resumes playing. As far as I know only WMP does this. Also, all the other players are too fancy for me- I don't need all those controls- just Play,Pause, Volume, and Next/previous track.
Although- does anyone know how to map other buttons. When I try to map other buttons besides the 5 "joystick" buttons it goes to that function. For example, if I choose mute and press "assign" and then press the contacts button- it switches me to my contacts. Same thing for my camera, phone, calander etc...
Any ideas??
Thanks!
ps- I love the iPod skin too!! I got it a while ago and can't find it anymore due to copyright issues. Good thing I saved it on my HD!

I actually found a newer version while seeing if what I wrote was true-
Here you go!

Screen on/off

Is there any way I could turn lcd and backlignt on and off just with a press of a button?
The idea is to keep WiFi active, but more important to save some battery when I use TCPMP as an mp3 player.
There is a program called GSPlayer which turns the display off while playing so I know this can be done, but TCPMP has better equilizer (and that's one of the most important things to me).
So, is there any cure for this?
Thank you in advance
Stiv

Give this small program a try:

It works the same way as any media players.
You may also try MortPlayer, which is derived from GSPlayer, with Equilizer and other effects/presets.

Thank you starwong. This is just what I was looking for

the HTC media manager is the best for this thing.... u can pwer off the screen and it will continue to play.

HTC Audio on 6 Tab Today

Has anyone been able to get the HTC audio player to play from the music tab on the Today v2.1 plugin. I installed the HTC audio player, which I like, and it plays fine when launched from programs. I also would like to get it to work from the tab on the Today screen. I configured it in HHC to use the HTC player, but when it goes to launch, it comes back with an error. I'm assuming it has something to do with the fact that it is installed somewhere other than the default location, but I'm not sure what that location is and I haven't figured out how to change where the today launcher is pointing. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Yes just use the HTC Home Customizer to change the default Media Player for the plugin.

I must have had someone's knockoff version of the HTC audio player installed because once I uninstalled it and installed the one I found on here, it worked fine. Apparently there is a difference between Audio Manager(Bad) and AudioManager(Good). Probably the same as the issue with Live Search and LiveSearch. Thanks for the help.

Media Panel broken?

Well my media panel used to work fine. I could play music and watch the video clips that came with it. Now when I try to play music or watch videos the screen goes black like it's gonna start, then it just jumps back to the menu like nothing ever happened.
I think it's CorePlayer that's messing it up... must be something with the file extensions but I turned them all off and it still doesn't work. Any ideas?

Well I guess I'll just hard reset and check the media panel after I install anything

I have the same problem. I always have Core Player installed. I just removed the media panel thinking it was sh*te

Same on my Xperia I think it was after i installed the Manila HD or the youtube cab.
I tried it with Uninstall the Manila HD but nothing happend.
i hope somebody will find a fix for the media panel, i really like it
PS: sorry for my bad english

have you install youtube by any chance recently?
it'll break the media panel, as well as the camera playback function.
if so, you may have to hard-reset, and install this version of youtube instead

that's until itje or daran release a fix on their respective CAB ...

tried your CAB but the mediapanel is still not working on my device

unfortuantely, you need to hard reset in order for the CAB to work.
alternatively, if you do not wish to hard reset, change this registry to see if it'll help (this is the problematic registry, but this wouldn't undo the system files that are overwritten)
HKCU\CLSID\{C4EF1AB7-F52D-4e83-8C74-0C512FB7EA43}\InprocServer32
make sure Default=HTCSrcFlt3.dll (not HTCSrcFlt2.dll)

okay what is the right order if i hard reset my device ?
i used this cab for the Manila HD
and this for installing the Manila Panel.
PS: youtube doesn't work on my X1 (a german one )
and thanks zenkinz for your fast reply

somebody has reported that the manila cab with the built-in youtube will not break 3gp/mp4 playback, are you not experiencing the same?
my CAB is tested with TF3DHD by Daran, and you can install my Youtube CAB, TF3DHD and TF3D Panel CAB in any order. You don't need to install any other CAB such as Dshow or mHubVO, and in fact, I've not tested if these other CABs (other than TF3DHD and Panel) will break the CAB that I have put together.
PS: I hardcode the installed files to \Windows directory, if your German ROM uses a different Windows directory name, I need to change.

OMG sorry for the trouble i testet another mp3 file (the standart one) and it worked.
but i dont understand this my music worked a few day ago andnow they wont work
well sorry for that

same problems to me, too.
most time the x1 player will not start selected mp3.
it jumps back to track selection. but once, the player played a few pieces of songs.
i will check the reg hint, today.

This works!!

This registry fix does in fact work. I applied it and both the native video camera player and the multimedia panel player worked. YouTube in the TF3D panel continued to work too.
Great job! Thanks!!!

Just curious... how do you get album art to appear in the multimedia panel for playing mp3's? I loaded the album art in iTunes and Winamp, both don't seem to work. Although when I play the songs in coreplayer, the album art comes up...

I added the album art with mp3tag.
I used ID3 v2.3. I tried to use ID3 v2.4 but there are no album covers on the media panel so i returned to ID3 v2.3.
You can easy change that in options of mp3tag

ok guys
Instead of starting a new thread I'll post a comment here....
My problem is not a broken emdiapanel but a missing media panel.
I got a prototype from work(SonyEricsson) and it's one of the earlier prototypes and I'm missing a media panel on it. I tried to copy the media panel from the "program files" folder in a another Xperia phone, put that didn't work ofcourse....
So I'm wondering if there's a way to Impliment that panel???
I'm probably the only one with this problem but I'd appreciate help though
THANKS

see if it works if you create the following registry
hklm\software\sonyericsson\panelmanager\Panels\MediaExperiencePanel
Desc="The Media Xperience Panel"
DLL="\Program Files\Panels\MediaExperiencePanel\MxPPanel.dll"
Landscape="\Program Files\Panels\MediaExperiencePanel\Resources\MxP_Landscape_Thumb.bmp"
LargeLandscape="\Program Files\Panels\MediaExperiencePanel\Resources\MxP_Landscape.bmp"
LargePortrait="\Program Files\Panels\MediaExperiencePanel\Resources\MxP_Portrait.bmp"
Led=0
Name="Media Xperience Panel"
Portrait="\Program Files\Panels\MediaExperiencePanel\Resources\MxP_Portrait_Thumb.bmp"
RequiredVersion=100

I'll just post my problem here aswell then;
When I try to view a video trough the media panel, media player or the camera application it just gives me a lot of loud static sounds and a black screen.
When trying to use youtube it loads the name of the movies but when I click them it says "Error: Cannot play this video".
I think, judging from what others have said, that the TF3D cab is causing this problem. I still got the "old" one but I wouldnt understand why installing the new one would solve my problem (if it does; please let me know and I'll try it, just dont want to do anything reckless atm).
There's been some suggestions in this topic for registry fixes, would those work for me aswell? Also, I dont even know how to alter the registry in the first place..

How to play music with screen off!?!?!

I know Windows Media Player has a Toggle Screen Off option, but it's difficult to assign a button to it when the SIP keeps disappearing when it asks you for the key you want to assign
Anyone know how to play music with the screen off?
Thanks

Try MortPlayer
Hallo,
Try the MortPlayer http://sto-helit.de/
I use this player since i have a win-mobile-phone. I use it with a bluetooth headset (headphone). The only thing you must do ist installing a little tool to remap the headset-buttons. If you do not, the headset-buttons will start the media-player or use the htc-manila-player.

My Windows 6.5 Stock rom turns the screen off automatically when listening to music, and doesn't stop it. (It used to in 6.5) - I can't turn the screen off myself or it does stop the music.

Dutty's ROMs get this right. very stable, very fast,

Nitrogen is a very good finger friendly audio player, that works also with the display swiched off

Umm, i dont have this phone yet so can somebody help.
Can't we play music with the screen off/sleep mode (from TouchFlo3D's music player/tab)???
This topic is misleading v___v

yes, you can. at least in MOST ROMs. some chefs didnt get this right (Dutty's older ROMs for example would by default use the Windows Media Player and would have problems with playing music while the screen was off.)
However, i am using Dutty's HG R1 and i can play music (and skip tracks, change volume, etc) while in sleep mode.
i hope that's clear enough?

I'm gonna have to bump this topic back.
I'm using Dutty's holy grail r6 rom and everytime i click the power to sleep while music is playing from HTC's music player, it stops.
How do i fix this?

I use the same Rom and the HTC player. If i push the start button on top of the phone, the music stops, but if you let the phone go to sleep by it self, then the music continue after the screen is off.
