The best multimedia players!!!

Hi guys,
I'm looking for the best mm player for my Jam...
I'd like a player that:
- can works in background
- can play all the mm format (audio/video) such as: mp3, ogg, mpeg, avi,wma divx ecc...
- the player have to stop when I'll receive a call or text and then play again
- the player have to don't use the standard configuration fot the power management (es: I configure my Jam to shutdown after 3min. but if I play mp3 I don't want this!)
The Win media player 10 it's very nice for example but how can i add the plugin fro divx, ogg and all the other fromat?
Any other mm player application?

try this

Think TCPMP is the best.

I think that Betaplayer and TCPMP are the same now

Yeah, TCMP is the newer version of Betaplayer. Dunno why they renamed it, but oh well. Whaever floats their boat!

A good music player is MortPlayer. A good video player is the already mentioned TCPMP. You can also find plugins for the WM to play Divx movies and so on but I would recommend the above combination.

Man, except for TCPMP (aka BETAPLAYER), there aren't any mediaplayers that support all those features...

is there a way to play AAC file (ipod) with WMP 10
I'd like to find a player that can play AAC file (ipod).
I tried Nero ShowTime Mobile which is good but doesn't stop correctly when you get a phone call
Is there a way to play AAC file with WMP10?

Hi guys!
I tried TCPMP and it's really nice but...
I'd like the player in "pause" when I receive an incomming call and with TCPMP I can't find the option to configure it... seems to continue to play but with no sound.
How does it works?

Talking about TCPMP.
A fiend of mine gave me an MP4 movie file which he had on his PSP.
I figured as TCPMP plays MP4's it would be as simple as transferring it onto my device and playing via TCPMP.
It works in the sense that i get great video, but there is no audio.
I get the following message at the beginning:
AUDIO CODEC (MPEG4 AAC AUDIO) Not supported by the player. Decoder was removed from the official install package.
Is there anything I can do to resolve the audio with this player. Or should I use another player?

That problem would be fixed if you had the same codec that Namelous is after (3 posts up). TCPMP comes with the MP4 video decoder, but need the AAC audio decoder to run, as most MPEG-style movies are encoded with separate video and audio. If you were to rip a movie to your hard drive from a dvd to Mpeg 2, more often than not you'd have audio encoded in MP3, so you'd need both the Mpeg 2 and MP3 codecs on your system.
Good luck finding an AAC codec for PPC. If you do, please let me know as I've been looking too!

What about Soundexplorer? (obviously not for video...). It also records sound (much players don't). I like it very much.

Looks like PocketMusic has an AAC plugin.
Haven't tried this program yet, but would love feedback if anyone does (like does it pause music on an incoming call, how is the equilizer, bass boost, overall usability, etc.?)
Thanks in advance!

Okay, I went ahead and downloaded the trial version on my MDA Pro and like it a lot! Doesn't play movies of course, but the equilizer is pretty good, and it pauses your tunes on incoming calls. Other features like mapping to the hardware buttons, big finger-sized screen buttons, skins, cross-fading, and an alarm clock make it nice.

AAC Plugin...
Google give:

It's illigal in some countries, but when you are not living in them you can try this.

Whats the best audio player for multiple format support?

I would like an audio/media player which can play back MP3, OGG, WMA and FLAC. Does such a thing exist?
And overall what is thought to be the best media player for WM5?
Also, does anyone know what (if any) players support gapless playback?

Gsplayer or TCPMP

I'd say, go with Mortplayer. It is based on Gsplayer, but has a completely revamped UI. It handles MP3, OGG, WAV, and MIDI files as well as streaming content. It is skinnable (very nice graphical skins are available), supports multiple formats, pauses music automatically when phone is in use, free, etc.
If you are looking for something that can do various video formats as well and almost every audio format, the gold standard is TCPMP (also free). I wouldn't recommend this as your primary music player, as the UI is very bare bones.
I keep both on my Wizard. I only use TCPMP for video and the odd audio file that Mortplayer can't handle.

Where can Mortplayer be downloaded?

If WMA and gapless playback are terribly important to you, take a look at Conduits Pocket Player. It handles MP3, WMA, Ogg, FLAC, and WAV. The UI is rather smooth. Downsides are that it can be a CPU hog, Gsplayer/Mortplayer have better audio quality, and costs $19.95.

First result on Google

for instance, i use pocket PC player. it uis very handy, as it's buttons appear on today screen and it looks like winamp

Midi playback

Yes I know - midi playback? But it's old! I use Guitar Pro to come up with compositions and I find its wav export to be...well, crap. So I use midis. I was hoping to play them back on my phone to someone to get some feedback but windows media player only seems to play an acoustic guitar for the various parts - not the full range of instruments. I tried GSPlayer, which produced no sound, and karPocket, which, although it played the midi, kept crashing and the only way to stop it playing back was to kill it in task manager.
Does anyone know of a decent midi player for WinMo?
Edit: Also, does anyone know of a good portable media player, or if it's possible to load windows media player up with codecs? Wanted to watch some poker videos on the bus to work but WMP couldn't play them, and I've had hit-and-miss experiences with TCPMP before - for example, it just plain not working.

question for movie player

Dear Bros,
I am using the coreplayer but it can't control the movie while fullscreen playing, can anyone suggest a video player that can control fast forward on the full screen just like the built-in player?

Good media player?

Just wondering what people are using for a media player primarily a video player?
I am using RockPlayer and to be honest it is faultless. Plays everyting I throw at it including h/x264 and ac3 sound.
There is one small issue and that is with configuration. I wouldn't mind a few more features like volume boosters etc.
I commute so tend to just drop videos on the phone to watch. Amazingly smoother and faster than winmo.

i personally use and like DoubleTwist. i havent' used RockPlayer yet.. but i have heard many good things about it.

Doubletwist is nice but seems to be okay with h264 but not xvid

Is there any app out there that lets you change the song in the middle of doing something like using gamedroid? Kinda like the home button on the ipod touch when you tap twice it brings up the media player?

i use mixzing for song playback. and i use mvideoplayer for video files (doesn't play divx but offers nice playback control and stuff)

Just so you guys know, there are Android general forums that might get you more replies and ideas.
Android General forums and Android Apps subforurm.

The only reason why i used rockplayer is cuz it plays rmvb and rm files (a MUST have for hardcore chinese drama lovers =P)
if anyone knows of another that can play realmedia files, please let me know cuz i'm also looking into other options

+1 for doubleTwist here

I use one called simply 'Music Player' (it was the top hit on the apps store). Excellent, fond my music straight away with no configuration, small footprint, instant start with no lag and a great FF/REW function. Unlike Windows Media Player :0)
