http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA032810/
A very solid player with many effects settings

hm.. still beta version..
but its ok...

Hi FOSA,
I have not tried GSPlayer yet since I use TCPMP to play both my MP3s and movies. Can you give a reason why GSPlayer is better in playing MP3s?
Plus, does it work well on the EXEC?

Tried it but it doesn't play WMA files, TCPMP miles better...

Uh?
well in my opinion GSplayer rulez only bcuz it has
BOOMBASTIC BASE!!!
go 2 effects en put the slider 4 bass 2 the right end.
put on ya headset....
Best base ever!!!
or is there a program that can beat it?
I liked Mortplayer bcuz it can use different maps... But it does not have that incredible base ....
But i didt try the wm5 version... maybe this one has that option

Thanks guys. I tried it yesterday. One thing I noticed, GSPllayer plays my MP3s better than TCPMP. The sound quality is much better. So I'll keep them both.

RE
I find that GSPlayer has many effects settings like 3D, Surround, Bass, Echo, Reverb etc that TCPMP lacks
Secondly, when I tried playing MP3 songs using TCPMP from BLUETAKE iPHONO bluetooth headphone through a bluetooth dongle the song volume sometimes go high and sometimes go low. Playing the same song using GSPlayer and bluetooth headphone does not have this problem
One issue with GSPlayer is that the equalizer and effects settings does not stick. Each time I have completed the settings and click OK the equalizer settings returns to FLAT
Anyone has this problem?
Thanks

Meridian and Bluetooth Headset

Hi,
I install Meridian player and like it very much.
But when I'm using my AD2P bluetooth headset, it launches and changes HTC Music player tracks.
I enabled the "use headset" option in Meridian, but can't find where to disable it for default player.
Any ideas ?
Thanks

I got the same problem.
I tried to disable it with the program Autostarts (paid app)
The buttons don't work if i disable it.
Does anyone have a solution so it works with Meridian.
I also have the problem that sometimes the audio stutters,
and when i play mp3's i hear some variation in the playback speed.

I didn't find any solution yet.
Anybody ?

I have the same problem with Beyondpod and ACast. Dou you have find a solution ?

I tried with default android player..same result: impossible to change tracks.
Only HTCMusic player seems to have this functionnality

The stutter comes from apps that run in the background, i also hope that it will be fixed in android 2.0. when i close everything with taskkiller it works fine.
I tested Meridian with my headset and the same problem. when i press a button like play/pause htc player starts. maybe it works if you remove the htc player?? but i'm not sure.

I tried to kill HTC Music, and later to delete HtcMusic.apk.
Same results, meridian don't work with headset buttons

I've found the stutter is from wifi being on. It keeps checking and using up resources.
I would love the ability to pause/skip tracks in acast and last.fm. Is this something that may be added in the future?

Windows Media Player Alternatives?

So...
WMP sucks... its slow to switch songs... tough to create playlists and freezes up my Ozone whenever I am listening to music and get a txt/email.
However one thing it does do is allow me to use the song select buttons on my stereo bluetooth headset.
What I am looking for is an alternative to WMP that allows the use of those buttons.
I really like Pocket Tunes - clean interface, easy to use... wicked fast song switching but it doesnt recognize the buttons on the Headset.
I havent been able to get Core Player to work on it... keeps giving errors.
Any suggestions or rec's would be greatly appreciated!!!!!

Try Kinoma Play.

i think either vlc or mplayer also has a windows mobile (though it may be in beta)

Pocket Player will use the buttons on the headset, but you MUST go into comm manager and set your bluetooth to stereo and hands free each time prior to using Pocket Player. This happens with some headsets for some reason.
My Jabra BT8010 set works fine without having to go into comm man each time, but my old Motorola set did not.

I 2nd Kinoma Play. Easy UI, good features, smooth operation.

coreplayer make a problem with my A2DP bluetooth headset..

controlling wmp while locked or in another app
I am a newbie coming from blackberry & i have a question. On the bberry, if the phone is locked u can still control the music player by using the volume up/down keys to change volume & change tracks. You can also control the volume & change tracks when not even in the media player screen...for example if i switch over to look at my email....is there a modification that will make this possible on a wm6x phone?

Core player, TCPMP, or HTC Audio manager are good. I made a Titanium HTC Audio Manager panel for my latest ROM. You have to enable it in CHome Config.

Will the voice recognition software work with other players?

Bluetooth Headset only with WMP :(

Hi,
When I press any button on my BT Stereo Headset, my Blackstone always opens WMP.
I want it to use an (any) other player in stead. (pref. CorePlayer of TCPMP)
I did search the forum and I found this problem in some threads but there are no solutions there...
I've tried AVRCP Agent, But it doesnt work. I also tried a2dptoggle but it didn't work at all (just showed a today plugin that did nothing)....
Is there a solution because the library of WMP realy sucks bigtime.
greetz,
Pfeffa-rah

Kick,
Anyone?

Try this...
http://www.teksoftco.com/index.php?section=products&platform=1&pid=7

I've got the same problem too. Even if coreplayer is currently playing, when I press the pause button on my bluetooth headphones. It will pause coreplayer and open WMP... WMP is completely awful... I have no clue how to disable it.

Hi Pfeffa-rah. A couple of us are looking for a solution to this very problem in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=568142
Which Rom and versions of Windows/Manila are you running?

Music player, BT headset and control

Hi, can somebody recomend me a player that can be used with my BT headset so that i can control play/pause and skip and back with the buttons on the BT?
MP works but that sux

Gonna try and bump this. Does anyone have a good mediaplayer that works?

Well i managed to find it myself. Pocket player can be used via bt headset controls so that you can pause, skip to next track etc..... finally i can get rid of the MS mediaplayer

Personally, I have tried many media players and the one that works the best for me is the music tab built into the Manila. WMP bites, and unfortunately, it seems to always hijack the avrcp signal from by BT devices. I tried pocket player, core player(great for movies), but I keep coming back to the built in player. It is the best, most consistent I have found.
Good luck and cheers!

Try Pocket Tunes with Itunes integration & Bluetooth Stereo Works
Try Pocket Tunes
I used Pocket Tunes for years on my Palm Lifedrive and now there is a Windows Mobile version. It works great with my Sony Ericsson DS970 Stereo Bluetooth and yes the AVRCP support is spot on and actually works.
I use it to download podcast, Stream and Organize Internet Radio, It remebers the last position in all my Audiobooks, of course MP3's But best of all is the Itunes integration (has a helper App that runs on the Desktop of PC that runs alongside Itunes to sync playlist)
What it does not do is handle video for that I use Core player. Give it a try they just lowered the price too.
