Video Player

Anyone know a good video player for Xvid, Divx, etc other than Divx mobile? Everything played thru media player runs smooth, but Divx mobile is real jerky with the frames. Anyone know a stable video player or codecs for media player? Link?
Thanks

Wow, does TCPMP play media files? I thought it was just for streaming media. How do I open a video file off a storage card with TCPMP.
Thanks alot

I also use SUPER to convert it to a smaller format to fit the screen better and help the small CPU do its work better.

All the videos i have are formated for ipod playback. I figured that was the ezest lazymans way of gettin ok playback from the phone. Is SUPER the actual name of the program? What is a proper size to run well on a wimpy overclocked Wing?

SUPER is indeed a good program and fast to

Well i think a good size could be 640x480?
I really should not know what size is best.. I just Copy all my movies on the memory card...(8gb card) And overclock it to 260Mhz

Im not sure what size they are, but it being off itunes or atleast scaled for a ipod, I would have thought that even OCed at 247 would help. And like I posted in the original, WMP doesnt have the framerate problem, only divx mobile gets hung up. Im guessing they just dont have the bugs out, or maybe its just to much for my wing to handle *cries* Ill try super out.
Thanks guys,

tcpmp and pocketdivx is a good combination for me....

I use SPB Mobile DVD and TCPMP combi. It can convert my DVDs directly to the pocket pc friendly format(in this case, 320 x 240). It can also scale the videos to fit them to play full screen with no black bars

Does SPB convert on the fly or from pc to ppc? And is pocketdivx the same divx mobile Im having issues with?

Try running TCMP instead, and get codecs.
Thats my setup, no lag. You can try it.

1.2.5 coreplayer with diamond skin.. Does pagepool change anything??

Mine only lags with some huge files, say 1.5gb. What sort and what size videos are you trying to watch. I always use xvids my mate dls em and I watch em, no further encoding required unless there is a dolby digital 5.1 soundtrack, then I have to mess about a bit.
I use pocket divx encoder if I need to re-encode a video, it is very good and can be found here: http://www.pocketdivxencoder.net/EN_index.htm

How can i play avi and divx on HD? plz some help?

As far as I know you will need good player. I will wait for CorePlayer 2.0

try this
http://www.4shared.com/file/51243023/beaf1cb8/TCPMP-072RC1-ARM-PPC-recomp-03CAB.html
This worked with my blackstone

I also used CorePlayer from CoreCodec... very good player, but you need to pay a small amount of money to be able to use it legally.
Plays probably anything you care to throw at it, most notably normal divX files, like ~800mb .avi aXXo rips and such.

I used the DIVX player for mobiles downloaded from DIVX.COM for free! Seems to play any Divx and Xvid .AVIs I've tried so far without problems! Give it a try!
http://labs.divx.com/MobileDownload

and since I posted that message, more digging around has pointed me to an updated version of TCPMP that works on WM6.1.
You'll find a link to that thread below...

does divx player mobile play flawless standard divx (for example 700mb divx) or did you convert to phone format?

I've read that the Core Player sometime has a choppy playback. Anyone here experience that?
And I'm also curious about jackthekayman's question as to how flawless the Divx player mobile plays videos.

Quick question. Is the TCPMP that you are all talking about the same as the CorePlayer Mobile from here?

Two different programs.

thanks

Yes they are. Somehow they have the same source but core is faster while TCPMP supports more formats as like AC3.

Not supported format or file is corrupt.

CorePlayer is the only player worth using.. I bought it for my Nokia and have now transferred my license to WM6.1 (for free )
No conversion of formats is needed. Even Full movies etc.. Best framerate.
When coreplayer reaches 3.x in the near future it will also have hardware support for HTC phones.
Great program, great developers.

FYI... I haven't used TCPMP yet, but it is possible to convert an AVI file to MP4 which can be played with the HD's built in player. The easiest way to convert is is by using VLC to do it, here's a quick tutorial: http://appleclinic.wordpress.com/2008/04/20/convert-wmv-to-mp4/

Divx in HD??

I would like to play some Divx movies through windows Media player...
I got the latest player divx player but i noticed its not playing those movies in Windows media player... can you help me??

Windows Media Player won't play these files. You can either look for CorePlayer, or convert your video (using this tool).

Coreplayer works great, you just have to drop your Dvix in Storage Card !!!

Why must it be located on the storage card. It should be much faster from the internal storage in theory, and you can choose the location in CorePlayer, so I don't see any restriction here.

space restriction maybe ?
cause i don't know for you, but i don't have enough for a divx (~700mb) in my internal HD storage ^^

And who is saying that a divx video has to be 700mb in size? DivX is just a codec, it has nothing to do with the size of the video file.

well ok then

I dont like the Coreplayer but i will get it anyway.
Thank you all

I use the freeware Divx player for PPC (full screen on HD)
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-pocket-divx-player-0-8.html

Nobody mentioned the free TCPMP player? It works on HD, and has the same performance as Coreplayer (which may be TCPMP's successor, but is not free)
You need 0.72, though with a special re-compile for the HD. It is linked somewhere around this forum, just search

Did not know this existed. How well does it work? Can it use the hardware accelerator in the HD?

Works well for me

Unfortunately that's not true. While CorePlayer is able to playback my videos with about 110%, I reach just about 70% with TCPMP. So TCPMP is quite useless on this device , although (with all available plugins it has a better media support. For example AC-3 and subtitles are supported).

Very true... but a standard movie ripped to DIVX is roughly 700mb+ as stated above - and theres no way you're getting that on Internal Memory.
I suppose it depends what type of videos you watch, but personally the only time I watch videos on my device is when traveling - where I watch full movies.
Each to their own though...

There was a whole thing with a 007 trailer in another thread, and all coreplayer users reported a ~85%, which I also got on TCPMP. Just remember to not use the GDI driver, and set the slow video memory option (those settings do make a difference).
Now, as soon as Coreplayer solves the hardware driver thing and/or goes well over 100% on that same 007 Quantum of Solace trailer, I am a buyer.

RealPlayer® for Mobile Devices

OK so yet another video question. I'm quite happy with the performance of realplayer on my N95 because it plays all my MP4 videos. When I try and play them on WMP11 they don't play. So I guess they won't play on the touch HD.Is it possible to bypass WMP and download Realplayer for mobiles.
Any thoughts?

Coreplayer should play them fine, try that.

Yep, Coreplayer will do the job. I haven't had any problems with formats.
