hello
I am aware that real player offers a player for the pocket pc to be able to play *.ra audio.
However on a standard pc I try to avoid due to all of the ads, extra ports, etc.... seems like an untrustworthy media advertising media sucking machine.
is there any alternatives? plugins for TCPMP, CORE, Windows Media Player, GStreamer, etc that will allow me to play *.RA files with out the offical real player application?
For those that did install real player to windows mobile, any issues?
thanks

Hi, I have looked everywhere for this problem but no solution. I have a wizard and I want to stream windows media music and videos from my computer thru wifi. but it keeps saying ''parameter is incorrect''. I've always played music from my computer with other pocket pcs but not this one. has anyone found a solution or tweak to do this? is it a windows mobile 5 problem? thanx for any help.
How are you streaming? Using SMB shares or are you using Windows Media Encoder or the like of? If SMB shares, check you can browse the directories first.
As far as i know, Media Player can't handle networking.
I use Conduits Pocket Player. It's not free, but IMO it is the best i have tried. It's has the best format support, handles gapless playback and has plugins for album art etc.
There are free good players around, but i have not tested them with streaming, although i believe GS Player can.
TCPMP is free can also player files accross a network, but it's more of a video player really.
Hey, does anyone know a good all in one media player (plays all the major format, wmv, mpeg, avi, etc).
I use sometimes coreplayer but has more glitches than Windows media player.
I think windows media player gives a more smoother performance but lacks in versitility with regards to the different formats it can play.
Is there any codec for Windows media player
Qtek9100
CPU: 240mHz
Hi,
I'm looking for the same thing. I use PocketMedia which is great however i can't use today toolbar plug-in b/c every time i exit the program it shuts down (even when i click on minimize). i don't know how to fix that, any suggestions?
Besides that, i use WMP10 but it drives me crazy that i doesn't memorize previously opened files. any idea how to fix that?
Of course everyone says that TCMPT player is the best but unfortunately the interface of this program does not satisfy me Can you change the skin?
Take care,
Tom
Hi tom
I dont have answers to any of your questions. I am fairly new to this pocket pc world and recently started exloring its capabilities.
Does WMP10 plays all major movie formats?
reason i dont really want to use WMP is because it eats up memory. Want a player that plays all format and uses little memory
It seem like this phone has full version of medi player. Does it play windows digital rights management system?
In theory. In reality it doesn't support all the latest wmv codecs unfortunately, so the only way of figuring out if it works or not is to try it.
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.
it seems that RP doesnt recognize Win8 as a valid OS...its the only program that has failed to run properly for me.
so i try GOM and I try a few other media players but the codecs are a mess and they all seem high maintenance. what do you like?
anyone running Windows Media Center on win8dev?
my picture image program is Fast Image and also Picasa which is a little too Googley for me...
Basically i just shun all the MS programs and make a beeline for FreewareGenius recommendations...
Oh..and I am a hater of Internet Explorer. I cant stand that thing... and it seems i am able to shut it down by disabling it in System configurations... i didnt think it would work but it does just like that. i expected a bigger fight from Microsoft to keep people from disabling the IE.
Sorry for this haphazard post but i love win8 and wish i saw more postings in this forum. The other Windows forums are full of pompous certified yahooos who talk to you like yoou should not be running win8 dev. I want to see some XDA flavor here... perfect fit!

VLC for video.
FooBar 2000 for audio.
IrfanView for images.
Those are my defaults of choice, all running on W8DP flawlessly.

VLC for video and media monkey for audio
You should really try media monkey
Xbox Media Center FTW!
VLC for video, WMP for music, Media Center for Live TV via USB tuner
For video: Media Player Classic Home Cinema + madVR (insane quality, try it instead of the crappy VLC)
For audio: Windows Media Player
For TV: Windows Media Center
I use Xbox Media Center for all of those, working well on Windows 8. http://xbmc.org/
For video: Media Player Classic (K-Lite Codec Pack) which is way better than VLC
For audio: MediaMonkey, which supports WinAmp plugins, and Zune.
