Video Ringtones? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps

Just a quick question, can the diamond or windows mobile devices in general do video ringtones?
Used to be able to do them on my old Sony Ericsson but obviously this is a whole different kettle of fish.
Did a quick search and nothing returned.

Request: WM ID3v2 (and or 1) editor

okay, i have searched for a while and i have yet to find an app for windows mobile to edit info on my MP3 files. does anyone know of an ID3v2 editor for windows mobile? (that actually runs on the phone)... orrrrrr is anyone up to the challange to make a simple one including
Track #
Title
Artist
Album
Year
Genre
Would be very nice...
I'm shocked that there aren't any apps like this for windows mobile.
For Symbian S60, there are ID3 tag editors, audio converters (to convert between audio formats directly on the device!) & even great video editors...
I do really love windows mobile but I have to say S60 was more fun!
I'm glad that I'm not the only one that could not find such an editor.
and yes would be nice to have one, and the same is for a decent playlist editor.
I tried several but up to now i didn't find one that I like.
any updates on this, im sure we're not the only 3 interested?

panel linkage?

something just occurred in my mind, it has been said that apparently X1 uses the default WMP to playback movies and music that being accessed from media experience panel; this would mean that there is some link that connect that panel to WMP.
Now the important question is, can the panel link be redirected into other media players? If this is possible, it will be a great thing!
*edit*
even better if the same could be applied into the internet explorer home UI -is that a panel?-, which mean we can use Opera or others
It actually can play music through the panel directly also without using wmp
but it still use WMP right? or is it actually have it's own player?

In my opinion; It can be either... Panels are applications that not only are stand-alone applications, but they actually tie in with the device letting you communicate with other applications. Communication would of-course depend on the application in question... as in how much information it gives out that you can use in your panel and so on.
I love Panels over TF3D 'cos of customizability and its overall potential.
I myself am looking forward to implement panels - probably some completely stupid and useless stuff...
I downloaded the SDK and installed it when released, however was bummed out that for Panels you have to use C++. It has been AGES since i used that languge other than when really needed. I have been hearing that SE will support C# and vb.nEt in the end for Panel development, and i am really looking forward to that day. (maybe they already have, 'cos i haven't really checked for updates)

I does both on the preview I've seen of it. He showed the music playing in the actual program and he showed that you can open it into wmp. As far as if that can be changed i don't know.

M4A-Playback and Geotagging

Hi!
2 short questions, which I couldnt solve on my X1:
1.) Is it possible to play m4a-Files? Die Media-Panel recognizes them, but cant play them. I know from WM6.1 on, the necessary codecs should be included in WM itself. Did Sony Ericsson took them out for some reason? Can we put them back in? I'd really love to use TFL3D's Audioplayer with all of my music.
2.) I want to use the device with geotagging. Is it also possible (bcz its manufactured from HTC) like on the Diamond to activate this via Reg-Hack? I didnt find the exact option, so would be nice if someone with more experiance could check. If not, are there any 3rd-party-solutions for this problem?
Thanks already for every answer.
*bump*
for the 2nd question I found a 3rd-party-solution with locrGPS.
But what about non-encrypted ACC-Playback? Anyone knows any solution???
mmh problem still exists here with R2, anybody found a solution? searched forums as well as with google but found no solution though
mp4a format: I copy my music files directly from my iTunes folder on my Mac and they play perfectly with Coreplayer and also by the media experience panel on my X1.
Geotagging: the new R3A camera CAB (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=499154) supports geotagging.
"mp4a format: I copy my music files directly from my iTunes folder on my Mac and they play perfectly with Coreplayer and also by the media experience panel on my X1."
well for that most part that works for me too
but m4a files bought at itunestore as itune plus
well all of it is that these days
then it don't work in media panel
not sure if it's because itune plus songs
are 256K/bit sec

Search the Market, there's a lot of free apps there that you can choose from.
i allready did sch there
didn't find anything useful thats why i'm asking here maybe for some recomndetion
I'm using MixZing for playing music ...
funny these threads. listed as one of the main selling points of this device was mediascape. you must have read that but bought it anyway! did you not try the phone 1st? this is a prime example of why we all should! not having a go so dont start flaming! expressing my opinion. there is no app within the app store that will deliver anything near what mediascape does right now so for this phone its the best you gonna get! in time when custom roms are being made then we may see the likes of what htc have to offer. we are also currently lacking in apps that do offer more but hopefully corecodec will develop an app for android! until then and until custom roms are available i would just stick with mediascape. no matter how much you hate it, the alternatives are even worse!
edit:
some coredec images for the cp2.0 for android.

playlists
Sorry for hijacking this thread but my question is to do with mediascape.
Anyone figure out how to create playlists in mediascape yet?
The only thing I have found that comes close is starring tracks as favourites, but that only generates one list.
Am I missing something or is it not possible? Cheers.

Yeah... I don't think that's possible. Which kind of sucks but something I can live with. I mostly just use Spotify anyway.
And I also want to know about any good picture gallery. I had one but it wasn't really good at all.
Ah, fair enough. At least it's not me going daft. I was searching Google and the results were implying that you could generate lists but they must have meant that it could be done via media go software.
As far as media players go i would consider that to be a basic feature that is required (especially if you have a large library).
As for the gallery I can't say I'm too impressed with that either. However I did like the one previewed on the mini. Hopefully that will be included in future updates, if there are to be any.
Just typing this on the phone itself using the HTC keyboard. The only thing missing are the directional arrow keys, tapping the screen in the correct place is hit and miss for me.
You can generate Playlists with the Astro Filemanager, which you should have installed anyway...
Yeah I do have that instaled. I'll try that out. Cheers mate.
PiQture is pretty good photo viewer.
I found se's other music player in the phone but cant shortcut to it to use it easily.
Im using the file manager by nalic (green and blue pie chart icon). Navigate to system/media/audio/ringtones (ogg) and play one, a different player called music opens to play it, now leave the file playing and pull down the notification tray and touch the play icon then press the left menu key then library button and you are in.
Now this player will be listed in the recently used app list (hold middle button) unless it gets moved off the list by opening more than 6 more apps without opening it again to bring it to the front of the list.
I like this one better than mediascape as its less cluttered and straightforward and you can create playlists which are drag and drop editable and show up in mediascape.
It would be nice to get to it easier though.
There is also a video player and picture viewer but they are very simple with few options.

Hi
I found it too. I managed to create a shortcut on home with Tasker :

Hope this helps.
One of my main reasons for wanting the X10 is mediascape. Since I've only seen videos, and you guys actually have the X10... I'm looking forward to hearing why Mediascape is a poor media player and gallery. It certainly looks more robust and feature filled than any of the current media players I've seen.

it is possible but via media go I think, I spent ages trying to work out how to get a playlist set up but I think you have to literally set up a play list on your pc, then transfer that playlist on to the phone (?) only reason I say this is because there is a playlist option in the library in media go. Unfortunately I'd already moved my music across before noticing this so didn't want to double it up or remove it and start again.
I found an app called mortplayer which is free and works a charm for music

Or get a file manager from the market and follow my instructions above, any playlists created will be automatically integrated into mediascape.
Its easy once you suss it. !
Hi,
Anyone know how to disable the mediascape from caching thumbnail for music file ? I think this would vastly improve the speed, as mediascape would only have to read the tagging info and not the image/albumart.
I tried to set the folder as read only, but it doesn't work, the phone still write to it
Hi all - I've sussed this out (alternate Music player and playlists)... download an app called "AnyCut" from the market... in here you can add all sorts of different things.. one of which is under the "activity" option.. called "Music" this is the stock android music app (mentioned by baggyb above).. this way you'll have a link to the music app on your home page which you can then use to create your playlists...
All these work arounds to create playlist are fine but the main PIA is when I want to add tracks to Current Play list while listening to music. Can't be done. I hope SE will soon release a upgrade to address some of these basic issues.
Also, when you try to add contact as Shortcut on Home Screen it brings up list of all contacts and there is no search or 'letter' list on side to select the names. You can to scroll all the way down to select names. I guess SE QA and design team tested the phone only with one track of music and one contact in address book.

[Q] XPeria Panels

I have installed the X2 panels and panel manager, but there's one that I'm really wanting:
The XPeria media panel.
I can't find a cab or anything for it *anywhere*, and I really want that slick interface, since my phone is primarily a texting device, and a media player.
I suggest you do a search and see if you can find. XDA and htcpedia are two places where i would look.
