htc touch -like media player skin

Hey All:
Thought I would cross post here since this works fine with our devices but is on the Wizard forum. I have a 6800 and was looking for a good skin to replace the WMP default - but liked the look of the HTC Audio Manager (which I would use except it doesn't play albums in order).
So, I found this skin for WMP which was darn close to what I wanted. Tonite I modified the graphics a little to make it more like the HTC player.
Check it out...

The images I modified are below. Just download the zip from post one, then throw my stuff in there to complete the look! Props to monoberlin for a great looking base skin!

Hey, that's pretty good. I think I'm gonna load that one up. Thanks!

Really nice.
By the way how did you get the album picture to show?
In the link your screen capture shows a picture in the center, I assumed that was an album pix.
Anyone knows how to show the picture saved in the tags?
Thanks,

Well, I would assume that if it were in the IDv3 tags that it would show, but going through my music it looks like it only works when you have the WMP style album art files in the same folder. Just use WMP on your computer to get the album art and make sure you copy over the (hidden I believe) picture files that are in the same folder.

I started using this theme and it works wonders in the car with the larger buttons. Thanks for everyones hard work in making my phone such an amazing device.

That looks very hot... but who uses WMP? =/ It sucks - can't even play with the screen turned off and theres no plugin support
How about skins for TCPMP that show you the song title of internet radio

There is no skin definition in TCPMP. Coreplayer has an XML skin reference, have fun reading their -->31<-- page Universal Skins Guide

Thank you, it looks really nice!

thanks..now i will try to make my own too

Nice!
A pause icon (instead of just play the whole time) would be nice.
Also, I don't know what all is involved, but album art support would be cool.
Great skin.

The album art is working fine on mine. Although, for some reason, when I slide the keyboard out it reverts back to the standard WMP skin. I put all the files into the \Program Files\Windows Media Player, but it only works when the keyboard is closed. Still sweet looking though!

o yea sorry forgot to mention that. windows media player makes you configure the skin for both portrait and landscape, so you need act as if your choosing the skin, but just in landscape mode

yea i realized this it was already too late, i can still try and make a pause, ill see if within the next few days i can do it.

I guess I just played a file with no album art last time. Tried some other songs and it is showing up just fine. Looks good.

Nice. I will see about porting to WQVGA and to the Neo theme if that is alright with you.

Actually, it already looks good on WQVGA. So I will port to the Neo theme.

I've been waiting for this! Thanks!
However, so far there is no functionality that the default cMusic doesn't provide. cMusic even allows you to flip through the music list too. Just something to consider, keep up the good work.

OK. Here is CNitrogen for the Neo theme. Right now it is WQVGA only. I will work on QVGA soon.

Sure it does. It uses a much better player than WMP. Besides, it is the first version.

what i like about Nitrogen player is the small footprint it has compared to WMP.
WMP = 2.41MB
S2P = 4.93MB
Nitrogen = 832KB
that's why i stuck with Nitrogen and made a titanium plugin for it. i only need the basics for the plugin (play/pause/forward/close). cMusic doesn't even allow you to close WMP

can't be installed on my omnia :|

Great Titanium plugin !!!
But any song selection performed with Nitrogen is not reflected onto the Titanium plugin.
If I currently play song A from the plugin and then display the Nitrogen app to change the current song to B, the Nitrogen plugin still display the song A as played.

yup, you have to pause then play it again using the plugin to reflect the new song. i didn't include any background running script to monitor the Nitrogen Player.

What does this mean? It works on my Omnia.

i don't know, but the installation don't work on my omnia

Thanks for this plugin.
What do we need to change to get it to work with our Nitrogen player installed on the storage card? Is it as simple as changing the addresses on the MSCR files?
Edit: Not to worry. I changed.. Run(SystemPath("ProgramFiles")\"Nitrogen\Nitrogen.exe") to.. Run("Storage Card\Program Files\Nitrogen\Nitrogen.exe")
as per this thread.

Very useful, thanks !
I wish you continue developping this plugin !!

For some reason I'm getting a circular red x where the album art is supposed to show as well as not having any song information present. I have Nitrogen installed to the main memory and can't think of anythiing else that would cause this. Thanks!
edit: I thought it was the skin I had installed so I changed to the default and all that did was restore the cd in a case icon however when music begins to play the circular red x returns where the album art should be. The plugin works great besides this little hiccup. Thanks for your hard work.

You need to provide more information. How can we figure out what is wrong by you saying it doesn't work?
Do you get an error? Have you modified your Omnia? Things like that.

Yea, that didn't seem to change anything. I tried starting Nitrogen first as well and that didn't change anything. :/

Looking for a simple Music Player App

I want a good old music player, something like WinAmp or alikes
I just want to click on a folder and play everything on the folder, instead of having to annoyingly having to go manually pick from Artist list, or Genre list, or Album list
so far all the Player software i've tested are like that "fancy wannabe"
Build in Samsung musci player = good player but lacks the most basic feature
Astro Player = it doesn't do it
bTunes = it doesn't do it
Rock Player = it doesn't do it
DAAP Media Player = it doesn't do it
Zimly Media Player = fancy but it doesn't do it
Vanilla Music Player = not as vanilla as it claims, it doesn't do it
MixIng = horrible junk
Kiss = it doesn't do it
.... (many hours later)
Player = woooooohoooooooo finally this one works the way i like, best thing is it also lets you set which ever tune you are listening to as the default ring tone, YES!
it can get lyrics too!

There are a lot of windows utils out there that automatically create a playlist in every music folder you have.... So, you can still use your favorite player and click a "folder", but this time as a playlist (with the folder name as its name)

have you tried double twist?

There are tools that will automatically create playlists for all your folders at once, with one click on a button so to speak. For example: http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Audio/Other-AUDIO-Tools/Winamp-Playlist-Creator.shtml
But i know that there are many others out there.

BlackPlayer EX has folder browsing. It only costs $0.99.

Ohhh! I didn't know it! Nice!

The dev is also very responsive when emailing suggestions, requests, and bug reports.

Definitely better than poweramp. Good job devs!

I don't have words to express my satisfaction after using this.... This is how google play music should be in first place... Great Job... kudus to devs for their hard work and support...

Does it support ReplayGain ID3 tags, POPM tag, and dynamic playlists? The perfect music player for me would. As a bonus, but soon a necessity, Android Auto.

It's a great music player but it seems that TB can't keep track of the current song. I mean that the song is reset after a clean flash.

Hey mate
I must admit, that i didnt test a lot of music-player-apps, but since years I miss a feature (or didnt find it) and perhaps, it could become one of your unique features:
-Jump to Time
There are a lot of 1hour+ mixtapes, and its hardly possible to jump to the right position with the seek-bar-slider, because 1mm slide could skip 2-10 min...
Going to test you app now

Definitely better than jetaudio...love it.
But my song not showing on BBM feeds when I enable Show What I'm Listening To on BBM setting. Or maybe i missed some setting on blackplayer?
Update:
Yes..i missed it. There is broadcast now playing on settings...love it
