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.

Hi all,
A2DP seems to only work with Windows Media?!?!?!
I'm using i.Tech Clip Radio and it only defauls A2DP to the music tab (which is linked to Windows Media) in THD...
I've installed PocketMusic 5.1 freeware. When playing musing with PocketMusic, I tried moving to the next song in my playlist, instead, it plays the next song in my TouchFlo3D, Music Tab's playlist.
No matter how I've test and tried, it just won't work with PocketMusic...
Any one encounter this pls?
Any one knows how to change this pls?
Thx u...

I listen to audio books, and the default win player, doesn't allow me to bookmark my spot when i finish & resume from the same spot. Is there a player that does, paid or free, doesn't matter which
I don't know about the audio format but Mortplayer used to let me resume a song from the position it stopped playing, would that work?
Hi,
I use Conduits Pocket Player. This program gives you the option to choose to automatically bookmark (and thus resume) one track or all tracks. This player also has an automatic screen off function and sleep timer.
For me, this is a great player for audio books.
if you have visual studio 2008 you can compile the one from here. http://www.codeproject.com/KB/audio-video/abcPlayer.aspx
Thanks for the replies, Conduits Pocket player looks like the sort of thing I need
I can recommend you pocketMusic, it has bookmarks and I like it more that PocketPlayer. Only issue with it: dousn't have Coverart and doesn't have WVGA-theme, you'll see it when you use it. But for Music and for listening to biiks, its awesome. Just try it out
Greets, cad^^
Kinoma Freeplay (or the paid version) works well with audio books. Even works on Audible content, it can log in, stream or download audible books - if you use audible of course. It seems good quality and works well on the HD. It bookmarks any file and retains a history log.
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?

Hi all,
I have been trying to find a music player in the Market that can help me make playlists more easily.
In particular...
able to pick multiple songs out of different albums and not have to start over at the beginning of ALL THE ALBUMs!
Does anyone.. use a good music player that they can recommend?
Also on wish list but not required at this point:
-have stereo Bluetooth
-can control the music player with my Bluetooth headphone device
-has an equalizer
-have controls on the lock screen (similar to HTC's player)
Thanks for help.
Dan
No music player other than HTC's will be able to have lock screen controls.
The lack of EQ is due to limitations in Android's audio API. There is a player in Market that claims to have it, but it's $30... There's a free version, but I haven't tried it, because my headphones are decent enough that I don't need it.
I use MixZing specifically because it lets me queue up things from different categories. I don't use actual playlists though. No idea how well it deals with Bluetooth.
I just found a program to fix Bluetooth button on headsets.
claims to fix the other players.. so your headset can control the new player.
It must be new... because there were no comments by any user.
it is called: "Headset Button Fix"
but it requires the HTC player be removed.
If I do remove the HTC Player...
How do I get it back if it is not what I want??

I own a Venturi Mini, which is a in-car FM Transmitter/Bluetooth unit. As well as being a hands-free kit it also connects as a bluetooth stero headset to my HD and transmits the music via FM to my stereo. It's a lovely piece of kit.
On the unit, as well as being able to dial and hangup there are play, pause, stop, fast forward & rewind controls. These used to operate the music player in Manilla.
I have recently flashed to one of the Stonehenge roms, but now the controls on the venturi connect to Media Player. If I am alreasy playing music through the unit from manilla and then press, for example, fast forward, the manilla player stops and media player opens on it's library plage.
This is annoying. The manilla player is nice and finger friendly as well as having simple visuals. This is great for driving.
Does anybody know if there are any windows settings or registry values I can change to determine which music player an external bluetooth headset controls. I don't mind if I ended up with it fixed to the manilla player or to whichever player is in focus.
Thank you in advance.
Once I wrote the above message I saw a couple of approriate keywords in the list at the bottom which helped me make my searches more appropriate.
Below are a few threads relating to this issue. It appears to be between the bluetooth driver and WM6.5
I can't yet post links so look for the following threads:
