Tiny application for Windows Media Player control via shortcuts. WMP must be running before executing any of this command. I hope some of you may find it useful.
Use following parameters (only one each time) in a shortcut.
-pause for play/pause
-volup for volume up
-voldown for volume down
-next for next track
-prev for previous track
For example
Code:
Shortcut-Volume-Up.lnk
00#"\Program Files\wmpcontrols.exe" -volup
It should work all WM 5 and later devices (both PPC/SP platforms).
Download
wmpcontrols.zip
very nice
this is really great for people using WMP... thankfully we have A_C's S2P
It'd be amazing, if we can control CorePlayer in this way! I hope you'll find a way to add this feature in near future.
antourage:
Sure, I will do that when I will have some time.
Do these same paths control the player functions of TF3D?
If they do it would be way cool to see A_C incorporate them into S2U2 and allow a user to pick to either cotrol S2P or WMP with his lock controls.
Curious G
Pure win. Thank you.
Doesn't coreplayer use wmp as a base? Or is that just the library functions?
Anyway, this is really useful for things like XMT and other widget type programs, thanks a lot.
[edit] One suggestion though.
Could we maybe get an installer or at least suggest a specified directory to put it in.
That way, if theme writers and stuff want to use it they know where it "should" reside.

Ok, I have updated the files. Plus the installer creates a folder in the Start Menu with all the current shortcuts (may be useful for easy hardware key assignment).
Stumbled upon this by chance.
Anyway, I'd want to recreate the old functionality of the media player buttons on my XPhone IIm and would like to know how to map these shortcuts to the buttons. Thnx
moneytoo,
Great app!
I've been able to remap some of the keys on my Diamond2:
(long press, 250 ms)
SEND: play/pause
WINKEY: previous track
BACK: next track
Exactly what I wanted!
Is there a way you can do the same with TouchFLO 3D's music tab (that would just be perfect)?
To g4g0:
You need to get a key remapper that is compatible with your device. xda it.
Thanks a lot, moneytoo!

It's possible with S2P ?
This program works on WM 6.5.x, or not?
No any reaction when I launch any shortcut for manage a WMP((
yes it works ok on 6.5
thanks for this app
Actually it may not work in some cases. The paths in the shortcut are for English rom (the "Program Files" folder has different names in different localizations). The shortcuts also expect to be installed in the device memory (storage memory or memory card will fail)
It's easy to fix though. Either open the various shortcuts using a text editor and change the path according to your localization or copy the program folder to the correct path.
zoidberg: I wanted to advice him of checking for correct path in links, but as he said, no response, that would mean links are ok, (no error) and the program is just calling wrong wParam/lParam as I suppose that's how it's controlling wmp.
In any lang mutation those should still be the same.
As well if he would change mapping inside wmp, that shouldn't have any effect.
Here I run out of ideas and just wrote: yes it's working in 6.5, just to eliminate possible problem for him.
Maybe he is using different player which is just skinned into wmp?? Or a complete strange version of wmp.

if you want use side slider on your XDA2 for something else then changing sound volume now you can do it (with some restrictions):
This utility unmap volume slider on MDA2/XDA2/iMate (and probably other PDAs).
Disclaimer:
By default side slider change system volume and can not be used for something else (only exeption is some games).
What it do:
This prog remove mapping of side slider on changin volume making possible to use it in other programs (scrolling pages in Haali Reader for example).
Installation:
Copy file unmap_volume.exe to "/Windows/startup" folder
soft-reset device
Uninstall:
delete file unmap_volume.exe from /Windows/startup
soft-reset device
How to map this slider in other programs/which programs are supported:
Side slider generates virtual-key codes 0x75 (equal to "F6" button) and 0x76 (equal to "F7" button). If your programm can use this buttons then it can use slider.
Is it possible to run programs by slider (like by ordinary application buttons)?:
No, maybe this feature will be implemented later.

Excellent!!!
This button is very usefull now!!!
This sounds like a useful trick - I never use the volume control, except accidentally while on a call :roll: . Can anyone say what applications they've found to use this hack? I don't have a lot of extra software on my machine - how many of the built-in apps could use the slider to scroll? Perhaps one line at a time in Pocket IE?
Very nice Thank You!!
Ive managed to change the registry entry in WMP so I can use it to change tracks.
To make it truly useful though it will have show up in the button assignment window.
Thx again

unfortunately this hack can be used in very few apps (see readme.txt) but v.2 is coming soon
Main feature of v.2 is driver, that remaps unstandart vKey codes (0x75 and 0x76) to the standart "application-buttons" range, wich make possible to use "volumeup" and "volumedown" buttons like calendar/contacts/camera/record button. the code I've at this monent is not 100% stable, and configuration interface is far from user-friendly, but it is quite workable, so final version will be released shortly.
Des, unfortunately the notification is not always working for new posts...
Can I be included in your mailing list (if takovoy imeetsya ) when new version v2 will be ready for trial?
Thanking you in advance (Zaranee blagodaren)
Paul
Des, good stuff!!! I also never use the slider for volume, but would be quite keen to use it in MS REader for Page Up / Page Down. Is that possible?
Just a question, Des. What registry settings are you changing or removing? A friend of mine has a PocketLOOX which has sliding buttons to be used for Up and Down - I would be keen to find out what settings he has got in the Registry...
farnold this hack isn't registry tweak so it dosn't change, create or delete any registry keys. unlike PPC2002 in WM2003 handling of keys with vKey codes 0x75 and 0x76 is hardcoded in shell32.exe and current version of hack just rollback RegisterHotkey() maked in shell32.exe
Thanks, mate. Well explained... so is there hope for using the slider in MS Reader at all?

i don't use microsoft reader so i can't tell you exactly, but if MS Reader is able to bind desired actions to application buttons (calendar/contacts/camera/record but NOT joystick/action) then most probably that you should be able to use volume slider in it (with next version of button remapper).
Hm, I think I will be left out then... I would think that SCROLL FOREWARD and SCROLL BACKWARD in MS Reader are nothing but JOYSTICK TOP and JOYSTICK BOTTOM ...
But that makes me thinking as well... you mentioned that you change something in shell32.exe... the PocketLOOX has a similar slider which does nothing but scrolling... maybe someone knows which function is required???

let's make things a bit clearer: there is no problem to make volup/voldown dublicate joyUp/joyDown, but I'm not planning to include "per application profiles" in this version, so such remapping would be systemwide.
ps: why peoples are using M$ reader ? there are lot of e-book readers (iSilo, mobi pocket, uBook, Haali reader) that are (imho) much better than M$R, and there are converters from drm'ed .lit to open formats (plain text/xhtml/XML e.t.c.)... so WHY ?

Hello Des!
Привет Des!
Не могу ни от кого добиться - как переписать ROM 1.60 в O2 на новый ROM 1.72, который выпустила T-Mobile?
Подскажи, please, если знаешь.
Ну вы, блин, даете! xda-developers.ru? шутка! :twisted:
er.. WTF?
BTT: why not add to this tool to allow the slider to be mapped to custom keys? PageUp/PageDown would seem like an obvious choice to me, making it instantly compatible with the majority of readers, but others might want it to be mapped to other keys. All the same, PocketQuake could have PgUp/PgDn mapped to weapon changes
I have to say I find the In-Call volume control indespensible - some phone calls come through quite loud, while some come through very quiet.

Hi
Since I use my S110 one thing annoys me to deat. I use Wisbar and this closes programs instead of minimizing them. Now, when I click on a *.mid or *.wav that sluggish album program needs to start up and that takes ages. On my old iPAQ (that lacked that album) those files where played by the explorer directly (maybe a small dll, don't know) and that was way faster, there was no delay whatsoever and the album takes its sweet time to come up.
So I'd like to know if there is a way to change the fily type association for the audio files from the album to that smaller player (that is included in WM2003, just don't know the name)?
Please help.
there is a little program called myExtensions available for free, and lets you choose the whatever program you wish for a certain extension..
http://www.badschwii.com/
you can also use Resco File Explorer... use ( open with ) ..
if both combined together.. you'll get very good results :wink:
cheers
Ok thanks, that looks promising. I'll check that out asap.
Ok, that tool worked perfectly. All set and done. Nice, thanks again.
Glad I helped
Hello,
I know this is mostly a personal tastes dilemma, but I am looking to add a few specific functions to my Wizard and I just can't find some solutions to very simple issues. Of course I already searched through several boards and freeware sites, but most of the times I am stumbling on overcomplicated, unreliable, unstable or just plain not-working apps even for the most trivial tasks. Other times they work fine... unless you have any other app installed, in which case they bork up the system royally.
So, what are your freewares of choice for the following functions?
1) ALARM CLOCK
Yes, just a damn simple alarm clock to wake me up in the morning. No fancy tricks: just set it (possibly even on a week's advance), select the sound/Mp3 to be played and be sure it rings up when the time is right. If you want to get luxurious, a snooze function initiated by any hardware button would be nice.
I used M.Toda's AlarmClock 0.04, but it seems to be impossible to select a specific sound or buzzing mode (it's always an ear-splitting MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!!), nor to keep using the Wiz when the alarm is set.
[Update: following Pat12's advice (see below) I downloaded the latest AlarmClock version (ARM version) and it works smoothly. No Mp3 alarms yet, though]
2) MP3 PLAYER
Just the very basic player functions: play the whole folder, add Mp3 to playlist, previous/play/pause/next buttons and a Mute function. What's the problem, you say? Well, all the players I found either blocked the phone functions (a player going on auto-hold on incoming calls would be wonderful), or would keep the touchscreen always active, making it impossible to put the Wiz in a pocket while listening to music.
[Update: The current best candidate seems to be Tcpmp, although it lacks a full graphic interface (meaning Previous/Next song buttons)]
3) WARDRIVER
Yes, I know. But WiFiFoFum hasn't any user-friendly way to select which available AP to hook to. HitchHiker does, but any time I launched it after the first one it made the Wiz unstable. That was on a non-updated ROM, though... I admit I have to check it again... unless you suggest anything better.
4) LAUNCHBAR
Nonononono... no l33t, gigacustomizable stuff, please. I simply need a self-starting thingie to have the icons for the Office apps and maybe the latest X opened apps always on my Today screen. If you've seen the "green" UK ad campaign for WM5 - that's exactly what I'm looking for.
5) ANTITHEFT APP
[edited: the correct name happens to be EyeOnThief, see below]
I used to use LockOnThief, which supposedly sends tracking SMSs to a hidden number list whenever a non-approved SIM card is inserted in the device. Great. Just one more thing would make it perfect: the ability to remotely wipe the device via SMS.
I know this is an AKU2 trick, but I've got no Exchange server so I'd like a simpler approach. Do you know any solution encompassing both the tracking and the wiping functions?
And, by the way, has anyone of you actually field-tested LockOnThief tracking abilities?
6) WI-FI "G" ENABLER
I'd simply like to enable the 802.11g protocol on my Wizard. The problem is: the Djvw Wizard Optimizer 2 seems to make my Wiz unstable, and Registry Wizard crashes on start (yes, I installed the other Cab too). What other layman's solution would you suggest?
[Update: thanks to Meschle (see below) now there is an optimal Cab-tweak for enabling the protocol!]
To give a little contribution, I can only give my undivided suggestions for four softwares I fully endorse:
SCROLLING - You guessed right, it's Smartskey! [And not "softkeys" as per my initial post...]
PERSONAL INFO MANAGER - EWallet. Not a freeware, but great in the way it synchs up with its desktop counterpart.
GAMES - PpcAtaxx (a much more interesting variant on the Othello/Reversi theme which is perfect while commuting) and PocketScumm, to play the old LucasArts graphic adventures
Thank you in advance for your help, I'll really appreciate it!
Hi I'll answer a couple of those
For an alarm see 'Wizard reliable alarm project' WRAPhere http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=43692

Can you provide a link for LockOnThief?
SCROLLING - You guessed right, it's Softkeys!
What is this? I'm having issues scrolling in PIE Plus since upgrading to AKU 2.3 and if this is an app i can try it may help. Do you happen to have a link to it?. TIA
Thanks for the first answers. Here are my first replies:
Meschle: I did check that thread, and it seems that Pocket Wakeup isn't very reliable at all... Also (but this is just an aside), the Italian translation of Pocket Wakeup was one of the worst apps I ever tried, totally borking the Wiz.
And about the registry tweak... I'm just a retarded farmgirl... no hacking tricks for me, please... I just can't believe there is no "download, run, forget" apps to enable the G protocol...
Mattucd & vijay555: Yup, that's it!
Romp: http://www.mycnknow.com/LockAppen.htm (My bad: the actual app name is EyeOnThief... I was confused by the actual filename)
Xandermac: Gah! I misquoted the name again! That would be Smartskey! I don't know if Smartskey will do anything for your problem, but it's right on this board, at http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=41060
Any more takers, please?
Alarm Clock: AlarmClockE is the only alarm clock software that is reliable for me, at least for the time being...(until it fails, like all the other I tried including Pocket WakeUp)
MP3 Player: TCMP, it does pause the song or video currently playing upon incoming phone calls

Try mobialarm 3.2 then - I find this reliable and like it because it plays wma's http://guillaume.tristant.free.fr/
btw are you really a farmgirl? :wink:
Meschle: I am actually quite a bit of an IT girl, but sometimes I'd much rather go back to the farm. Case in point: MobiAlarm. To witness:
Installation notes :
- Uncompress the ZIP file in any directory in your PocketPC
- Run the CAB file, it will install a "runtime"
- Run the file called "install.app", it will install MobiAlarm[/url]
MobiAlarm link is located in \Windows\Start Menu\ or \Windows\Menu Démarrer\
The program himself is installed in \Program Files\MobiAlarm\
WHY?!? Why, I ask, should anybody need TWO installations for one godawful simple ALARM CLOCK, forchrissakes? And why does it end up tucked in a forsaken folder, with no icon anywhere? How should I be supposed to remind myself to browse up the Wizard to find a lone file among hundreds... just to get awaken on time?!?
And the punchline? I followed this guy's installation instructions: the runtime went smoothly, and his app simply never appeared anywhere. (my two cents: it found localized foldernames and aborted without any warning message).
Pat12: AlarmClock does the trick!!! No chance to get it playing Mp3s, apparently, but the ARM flavour gets the fade-in working. Thanks!

If only things were always so straightforward...
Kilrah: The link you provided ain't working, but I found this download page for other interested people: http://corecodec.org/frs/?group_id=53&release_id=224#r224 (the version you want is the "Windows Mobile Smartphone" one).
In fact Tcpmp is very close to perfect. I only found it strangely lacks Previous/Next buttons on the main screen... or is there a plugin or something to get it?
Just a little update to say I recently needed a tool to fix a storage card, and I was pointed to the non-free but very good SK Tools... yay for it!
By the way, any more suggestions for my initial search?
about TCMP, you are right:no next/prev button. But it's highly customizable and you can assign the otherwise useless softkeys to it. I did it and I can operate TCMP without getting the stylus out or using my greasy fingers on my clean screen
Well..I find it's much easier to have clean fingers
Just kidding. TCMP is a true gem.
Mortplayer is a pretty good free mp3 player. Also there is an alarm clock built in, so you can use ur mp3's to wake you up, and it's been pretty reliable for me. Good interface and not very processor intensive.

Just in case you didn't notice:
There are new betas for MortPlayer (3.31b69, also RC) and MortScript (4.11b2).
The new MortPlayer beta fixes a lot of bugs, only the phone call pause still seems to cause troubles on some devices. But I'm afraid there's no way to avoid that without causing troubles on other devices (buggy manufacturer implementations of a crappy MS concept...).
It also includes some new features, like more finger support (list scrolling, finger gestures for track/Favorite change) or defining the upcoming track (select track and tap "Next track:" info). Configuration has been made a bit more easy, too, esp. by a simplyfied Favorite configuration dialog. For Skins, there are some new options, like defining the height or a separating line for list entries or switching back to previous screen, which are also used in the new default skin (MortVista).
MortScript doesn't offer many changes so far, but some might still be interesting, e.g. a SendKeys that should work faster and more reliable, an Include command (include Subs defined in other files), or line number in error messages.
Oh, and since it seems so commonplace here to beg for donations - I won't deny them either... (PayPal button below menu on my site..)
Hi,

Playlist navigation via D-Pad
Hi,
I do not know if it is possible, but I would like to be able to scroll and select a song from the playlist using D-Pad's up/down and select buttons. If I use these buttons in the playlist now they rise/lower volume and play/pause the playback.
Thanks,

You can assign up/down button to "Move selection". However, they won't have any action in any other screen.
So far, MortPlayer hasn't the concept of a focused element, so there's no difference whether you're "in the playlist" or not.
In most cases, that's also better that way on PPCs, because you'd rather have e.g. left/right skip the track instead of selecting another element (like in usual dialogs). Only the playlist is an exception I didn't find a really good solution... To simply redefine the up/down behaviour might be unexpected/-wanted, too (i.e., I could get mails the volume up/down - or whatever's assigned to DPad up/down - "doesn't work").
@Menneisyys: I don't plan to include much in MortPlayer until the release, though I've still lots on my "to do" list. But it's about time there's finally a new release version, esp. if you consider most beta versions were more stable than 3.3...
I just have to fight procrastinating all the work that's related with a release, like writing a new manual (about 60% done), recollect all changes (lost my old changelog...), fill the homepage description (another thing lost due to server troubles...), and so on.
Well, and then there's the upcoming MortButtons update - which doesn't offer that much new functionality (mostly animations and a simple Today plugin), but oviously peoply like to show off with eye candy since the iPhone.
(And I'm still suprised about all that fuzz over Cube, Spb Menu, and the like, since MortButtons had a similar concent for ages - and even combining it with an HButton like "one button" selection...)
Mort yeah the only way I can close it is to kill the player. I must add that I use the wizard reTOUCHED rom. Everything else works perfectly. I just cannot close the app.

I'll see what I can do about it... It's a very strange behaviour...
And now for something completely different: The current MortScript betas has some nice enhancements, esp. a status window that allows user feedback without interrupting the execution of the script.
MortPlayer 3.31b69 sound quality
Have been using MortPlayer 3.31b34 for what seems like ever (great player)
I thought I would install the latest beta (b69) to try out the finger gestures & hopefully benefit from other improvements.
All works great except the sound quality is not quite as good, less bass & harsher high tones/vocals ! All the settings are exactly the same.
Have swapped between the two versions & can distinguish the difference easily.
Any idea what changes have implemented this !
m4a
will mortplayer ever play m4a?

There are only two changes regarding the sound system: MAD has been updated (usually it causes better quality for most MP3s) and the default volume has been reduced to 80% (like in WMP).

The current beta includes the corresponding GSPlayer plugin. However, it seems like it doesn't work on all devices...
Dude, mort-tools are awesome. I'm using MortPlayer and Mortscript. Keep up the good work.
One issue with the MortPlayer : I use the latest Beta with IMort Skin (really great with finger gesture and covers ) but when i minimize the Programm and start for e.g. Excel or a JavaGame the sound stopps.

Thanks a lot ...
The default stream database will updated soon because a few streams dosen´t work yet.
Couldn't use it... Seems to have problems with my OS localization?! My system uses pathnames with chars such as "ã" and "ó". Does the app support full unicode? It complains it cant find the path to the database file which is in \A minha memória\TPSMP\Database...
Also noticed it doesn't install inside the "Program files" folder (or respective localization name) but rather installs to the root of the selected drive.
Could you tweak the position of the buttons and stuff so that they'll be right above the bottom bar? I have an Omnia (WQVGA) and there is empty space between the button bar and bottom bar...
What kind of media does it currently support? Also rather than using WMP wouldn't TCPMP be a better option? Either that or have built-in player capabilities like using ffmpeg for ppc...
Looking forward to try it

Am getting the same error aswell please help Thanks
Hy,
it´s a bug in the get application path function. It appears when you have a blank in the path. I will fix this horrible bug!!!
Currently it only supports the codecs given from WMP.
Greatz

-> FIXED!
If you have an idea for tcpmp and ffmpeg plz talk to me.
Thx.
Sorry I have no idea... Not a coder.
Just thought that the ffmpeg.dll could be used to make TPSMP not depend on WMP. But for what I read in it's release thread the current compile has the network functions disabled... If it were to be used it may need to be recompiled with these functions active.
Nice to see you already fixed those
No prob. I will talk to milesmowbray. Maybe he can give me a hint.

Thx it works I like it I can even add my own Channels thats coool and it plays really really well better then TCMP for me no buffering
I'am very glad to hear this.
Thanks

TV works nice but for some reason I haven't been able to use radio... I usually get messages from WMP like "Access is denied" (Bayern), "The parameter is incorrect", "Unable to open file. The file is damaged or not supported by the player", "At the moment it's impossible to perform the requested action" (rough translation from portuguese message)...
I reckon the interface is not the priority at the moment. I have two small suggestions:
1- Fullscreen on image/video press (like TCPMP).
2- A small suggestion on the volume control. How about something similar to the way TouchPlayer on the Omnia does it (easier on the finger)? Volume bar pops up when the volume button on screen is pressed.
looks nice.
I will test it and report back
