Discovered today that coreplayer doesn't support ac3 which means me having to convert rips that have been encoded with it.
Does anyone know of a player that supports ac3 audio to save me the hassle?
TCPMP is supposed to, although I've never tried to get it working.
not heard of that, any chance of a link? thanks
The version of TCPMP I normally use is this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3275845&postcount=172
But I've no idea if that's one of the versions that supports AC3.
I had the exact same problem yesterday. I am using the version of TCPMP posted above in conjunction with the AC3 plugin from here
picard.exceed.hu/tcpmp/test/
and it is working perfectly.

Thanks guys, will check it!!!
picard.exceed.hu/tcpmp/test/ ..... is that supposed to be a link? i've not used this programme before, how do you install the plugin?
Just install the plugin as you would any other cab
that is a link - I have posted too infrequently to be allowes to post a link - put the http etc in front of it
Thanks, will check it all out tonight

I have a vague memory of some plugins for coreplayer too, but cant remember what they were for... could be a false memory or wishful thinking however...

I installed tcpmp and the ac3 plug in. I have ac3 sound WOOOHOOO but...
no picture also the full screen button and the play/pause button are blacked out, you have to press it to see it not bothered about that, i just want the picture!!!! help!!!
EDIT:
sorted it, had to change the setting in video to GDI, raw framebuffer works also, directdraw crashed the phone, what do you guys use?
happy now, i can use coreplayer for my music and this for my vids with no conversion and also keep both aps open for when i want to easily switch between music and video.
My preferred settings for TCPMP are dither on, smooth zoom always, DirectDraw (not GDI), DirectDraw overlay format set to YUY2, "use device stretching when blitting" checked, and uncheck "overlay with colorkey" and "use blitting instead of overlays". I imagine the same settings will work in CorePlayer, although you'll need to switch back to GDI for subtitles.

wow!! direct draw crashed my phone. Do your settings produce a better picture then, this is all a bit involved for me!
Watching some video this morning, plays ok but is a bit jerky, do you know what setting fixes that?
with the GF5500 version, you don't need to install any AC3 plugin, oif you go check the TCPMP folder in program files you'll see there's already an ac3 file in there... that cab is the complete package with the whole plugins available for tcpmp

Smooth zoom always (rather than to 50%) and activating dither improve the picture quality. The other settings improve performance. Using DirectDraw with the wrong DirectDraw settings will indeed crash your phone. This is why I have given you the right DirectDraw settings.

You can't have looked very hard!
Hit Options/Settings... then hit the Select Page soft button and choose DirectDraw. "Settings..." is at the bottom of the Options menu - you'll need to scroll down a little.

Didn't realise that menu could scroll doh!! it's a bit confusing (to me anyway) plus i've been fidling around with coreplayer and get all muddled up with the menus
anyhow, i set it to what you said, looks great. How the hell do you know all those settings?
lastly, under options, zoom, i select fill screen, you?
BIG thanks for your help on this mate, much appreciated and all that

Trial and error.
I've done a bit of benchmarking with different combinations of settings, and that seems to me to be the best combination. Using YUY2 overlays does disable a few features. If you've made corrections to brightness, contrast, and colour balance then (I think) YUY2 will bypass that - certainly the options become disabled (as does the Dither option, actually, although dithering shouldn't be necessary if you're using overlays, AIUI, because overlays circumvent the 16-bit colour limitation). You also can't use DirectDraw overlays and have subtitles, I don't think. (I've not tried it, but I've read that).

I prefer "fit best". If you fill the screen then a substantial amount of the picture ends up outside the edges of the screen, and what's left of the picture is zoomed so much it becomes incredibly soft - but some people prefer that to having black bars. (Some people are peculiar. )

hello to all.
i have a problem with tcpmp on my p3600.
all movies and clipps that i am playing starts with voice but after 2 sec it mutes and i have only video.
what is the problem ?
in the jasjar thers no problame.
its a p3600 problem
same problem with all news htc...
****!
is incredible...
I've had issues, but not the one stated... Mine plays the sound fine, but has tonnes of error blocks in the picture. I'm using the same encoder (Pocket Divx) and TCPMP version I used on my Magician (correct me if I'm wrong, but I couldn't find a newer version of TCPMP)... Any suggestions on what to change would be gratefully received...

As stated a zillion times in this forum: switch to raw mode ( i dunno if it helps cause i dont use that app... but that is what they say)
I also can't get TCPMP to work.
I get a severe stuttering screen then it goes black. When I touch the screen it then switches to full screen mode and then plays with a slight stutter.
However the clip repeats itself and I can't quit out of the program, my only option is to press the reset buton.
I'm using TCPMP and after changing to raw have had no issues.
Well, I wouldn't say "no issues". Rawframe buffer is probably the slowest displaying method.
I tend to use DirectDraw, but under DirectDraw preferences, change output to YV12 (it defaults to RGB I believe). Everything then plays fine. It's not as fast as hardware accelerated video (ATI Imageon), but until Coreplayer/TCPMP provides proper support for Imageon, DD will have to do.

This may be a stupid question but I don't have an option for directdraw. My only options are
ATI IMAGEON
Raw frameBuffer
GDI
Null Video
Disabled
Where can I find Directdraw?

Go to Options:Video and you will see the choice.
This fix worked for me on an Orange M700 (HTC3600). Select the ATI IMAGEON option, not the ATI IMAGEON Decoder.
I also have the Smooth Zoom (only 50%) option and Dither checked.
Thanx, it works oke now...
Now I am searching for dutch spoken movies... anyone?
I have a SPV M700 and I have same problem with TCPMP audio stopping after 2-3 seconds no matter how I configure it. There is another alternative to TCPMP as good as it?
One curios thing I observed is that when I flashed a fresh new WM6 and installed first the TCPMP only I had no problem with it but after i added all the rest of software this problem start to appear.
Another thing I observed if i switch to full screen and back sometimes randomly this problem dissapear.
So it seems that I'm unable to play back any video format besides WMV.
WMV's play back fine while other formats (e.g. xvid, divx) do not play back at all. Coreplayer crashes to today screen or shows me a green garbled screen with vertical lines.
WMP just freezes and does nothing.
Is this a known issue (I didn't find anything using search)?
Any format of audio plays back perfectly fine (as long as it is not embedded in a video).
I had this, you need to change the Video driver to Raw frame buffer and all will be well. I use TCPMP and this was what I had to do for it to work.

I had done this at first initially too, but simdeo (fellow member) suggested Imageon setting, but NOT Imageon Hardware decoder. This has massively improved speed and visual quality, but you will get intermittent lines across the interface, but not in full screen mode. Settings should be:
TCPMP:
Video Driver = ATI IMAGEON
Buffering = Microdrive (ticked)
Advanced = Tick only: D-Pad, Use System Vol, Benchmark (none od these settings affect performance, just my preference - but selecting other options may adversly affect performance)
Direct Draw = YV12 and tick 'Overlay with colorkey' only.
That's it. Best performance to date and can play torrent or own DVD rips perfectly, providing they were not encoded as high as 640x480.
I'm having the same problems but cannot for the life of me find any settings on Coreplayer that will let me change the buffer settings or the driver.
I'm sure I'm missing something here.
Coreplayer version =1.0.4 build 716
It's the latest version afaik.
Adey
Ok, I found the settings in Coreplayer (yeah, I know, should have looked harder..) and all is now well.
Ok, so I've got really decent playback from standard 350mb XVid TV programs but I'm still having what appear to be buffering problems.
Does anyone know what the ideal buffer settings are?
Adey
I have found that overclocking the CPU yields in much better playback (although not perfect).
If I want to view a 640x480 video I run the CPU at 728 Mhz (what program would allow higher?), but still the fps is not up to par. I would say the playback is around 90-95%.

we use PHM to overclock our device, if you set to 728 and push mail and bluetooth all the time, you won't last for whole day, maybe just about 7 hours. But really you don't need your device on 728 all the time, and personally i think 728 is a bit unstable, so i use 662 when my device is on, otherwise 228 the rest of the time to save battery.
You MUST disable the internal scale from the PHM setting, otherwise it won't work

About TCPMP with the best settings applied as mentioned in this thread, is there something else we can do to further improve the playback quality?
I have some clips that feature "fast moving action" e.g. action scenes in movies. These clips will actually play, but when the "fast moving action" is there, you can see that it isn't going really that smooth/fast enough, resulting in noticeable, fast upcoming blocks/lines when you look closely. I'm not sure how to describe this effect best, but I guess pretty much everyone knows what I mean here.
Thanks!!

Hi.
Try playing any 3 minute segment of the video you have then click on File/Media Info and check the resolution of your video. If its below 640x480, then the problem is most likely a low bit rate used to encode the video, hence the pixelated blocks in high speed.
You can get away with less, but I encode now only at 480x320 @850kbps and get superb results each time...DVD quality and High definition quality too when I encode from HD source.
Can't say anymore than that. Click on my name and look through my posts, there will be a recent one entitled something like 'Excellent playback via Coreplayer & TCPMP'. This should help a bit if you have the time to read.
I've been watching a few videos on my Mogul and have noticed that I cannot seem to get the audio and video to match up quite right no matter what settings I use. Has anyone played around with the settings to get the best performance out of TCPMP on their mogul? What settings are you using?
Hope this hasn't been discussed before, I searched but found nothing useful.

Here's my settings and they work great. Go to Options-Video and set it to GDI.
Then go to Options-Settings-Select Page-Advanced then go to the Manual A/V offset +/- and type in "-300" without the quotes.
That will make the lips sync with the sound.
Enjoy.
Thanks! Definitely a lot better!
Curious, what does GDI stand for?

Is GDI really the fastest choice on the Mogul? I had heard that until recently Raw FrameBuffer was the best choice, and that now with 6.1 DirectDraw is also good.

I think there is little difference between Raw FrameBuffer and GDI but have mine on GDI. I see a reduction in quality in DirectDraw as the Titan does not have the drivers to run it properly. There was quite a bit of discussion on this in one of the past two ROM threads. Try both and see what suits your needs best. These settings only affect TCPMP though.
Awesome thanks for the settings! Does anyone know if this player plays wmv files? WHen I use the browser in TCMP player WMV files do not show, any ideas?

I've tried several different versions and builds of TCPMP from various forums but have yet to find one that works well on my HTC TP2. Coreplayer is nice but unfortunately does not have AC3 support and I really don't want to have to transcode every movie. I'm hoping there is a player that can play xvid encoded AVIs (other formats are a bonus of course!) with AC3 audio, but just play them in stereo. I realize surround sound is not possible. Maybe there is a build of TCPMP that I didn't try that works?!
Thanks,
J.
Found my answer! I had previously tried TCPMP-0.72RC1-ARM-PPC-recomp-03.CAB which is a different build of TCPMP but the video looked like garbage. I didn't realize it hhad to be changed to QDI under options-video instead of directdraw. Seems to work well FWIW.
You mean GDI.
Have you tried this version of TCPMP...?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3275845&postcount=172
I find it works better than the one you're using. You need to tweak the DirectDraw settings a bit - uncheck all the boxes.

I tried this one and unchecked all the DirectDraw boxes but video still looks like it is scrambled. It also seems to lockup my phone. Odd.
You need to set the dropdown list to RGB as well, I think. If that still doesn't work then trying ticking "use blitting instead of overlay". EDIT: In fact, you may have to tick that box if you want to zoom the video at all.
The Ultimate HD2 & coreplayer 1.3.6 setup, 3800kbps wvga (h264) no single frameskip.
This isnt a joke, i finally found the problem of coreplayer on our HD2,
this will solve all your problems with coreplayer:
settings:
go to select page then video:
Video Output: DirectDraw (before you change this make sure there is no video running on coreplayer cus it will freeze your device, otherwize,
go to DirectDraw page and change Overlay to YUY2, then change Output to DirectDraw)
DO NOT USE GDI and RAWFRAMEBUFFER- unless you like choppy or framy(lol) videos. (make sure you have 1.3.6 one to get max performance with DirectDraw).
now this is important:
go to select page then DirectDraw:
uncheck Overlay with colorkey
uncheck Use blitting instead of overlay
check Use device streching for blitting.
Overlay: YUY2
go to select page then Advanced:
Soft-Drop tolerance: 0.300 /0.200 /0.250 ( personally i use 0.250 it seems better )
Hard-Drop tolerance: 0.000
check Disable AVC deblocking filter
( EDIT: about AVC deblocking filter:
with h264 you can see some annoying squares on the video sometimes, now i recommend to uncheck this option and use TG01-D3DM drivers from chainfire, although in 3800kbps videos you will receive skips sometimes, but dont use such high bitrate with coreplayer XD tried 2000kbps one and works smooth with deblocking enabled)
after you have done all this coreplayer will run very fast,
BUT we havnt finished yet!!
playback will still have slowdowns, and this isnt related to the settings,
it is related to a bug inside coreplayer, which affects the autoscale feature of the snapdragon.
have you been wondering why benchmark is so high while playback lags a bit?
I explored this thing, i can tell you that when i check "Play movie in backgroung", and watch the cpu speed: it goes down from 768MHZ to 400-300MHZ randomaly then goes back into 768MHZ, interesting isnt it?
when it drops down to 300-400 it has lags, and when it returns to 768, the lags stop.
the final solution:
http://www.netripper.com/leo/cpuspeed/LeoCpuSpeed_v2.zip
this program will allow you to keep the CPU in its position or make it full 1GHZ.
all you have to do is open it then tap "Disable autoscaling" and you will have Full 1ghz speed.
you can explore yourself by re-enabling autoscaling ("(Re)enable autoscaling")
then activate movie playback in background through coreplayer, then go to this software and watch the speed dropdowns.
now the "Disable autoscaling" is perfect for coreplayer, it also use 1ghz instead of 768MHZ, and also does not drop down randomally.
it is recommanded to activate autoscaling after finishing with coreplayer, so you can use more battery, it barely affects the speed of everything else but coreplayer, because it automatically increases to 1ghz when you switch between apps, but does not stay 1ghz inside the app itself.
(im not a native speaker, i hope you could understand this.)
enjoy guys.
Core player does not work anymore!!
Followed these instructions to the letter.
Core player stopped playing videos!
Had to hard reset and restore. Beware.
Edit: I am using (and paying for!) version 1.3.6
I hard resetted because reinstalling did not solve the issue.
Hard resets are almost painless when you backup regularly (I use SPB backup... excellent).
maybe you are not using the 1.3.6 version of coreplayer
thats why it didnt play any video (DirectDraw works only on 1.3.6 and one more version - at the others you get green screen)
anyway why hard reset? you could reinstall coreplayer..
It worked for me though.
The benchmark for video with following properties reads 140%.
Video: MPEG4 Video (H264) 848x480 23.98fps
Audio: MPEG Audio Layer 3 48000Hz stereo 128kbps
It plays smoothly. =)
glad this works for you,
dont forget the fix for the cpu slowdown, cus without this the benchmark is only a number, and the playback will be with lags.
can you post your bit-rate?
Thanks for the tip!
Btw, this might be kinda off topic, but do you know how to get the htc volume slider (volume slider as in HTC music player) to work in coreplayer when I press the volume rocker?
Currently, the video will pause whenever I press on the volume rocker to change the volume.
Umm i have no idea,
maybe you can search google, but i have another solution:
theres an option around coreplayer settings to make the video keep playing when it exits fullscreen, so all you have to do is increase volume, then go back to fullscreen and the video keeps playing..
working
"you are good, you are very good "
No more lost frames, works indeed but now quality is not so good, I see lots of artefacts on my lower framerate videos.
Maybe I messed up some settings ?
i guess you did, go over the color settings etc.. ( i use 0 on brightness )
there is absolutely no drop-down in the quality,
if i play the same video also in album - you cannot tell which is which if i show you both in fullscreen.
I made those brightnes settings and the artefacts are still visible .
???
Thanks for help
ummm i dont completely understand what "artefacts" is lol, (not a native speaker sorry, i used dictionary but the meaning doesnt make sense xD, maybe you should try to explain this better)
i do understand that the quality isnt like before, this means you messed up with the settings somewhere. i do not see any drop-down in the quality of my movies.
Artefacts are little squares on the screen when is lot of movement
Sorry for my poor english
got it, do you say these werent there before? actually this is common with flv files.
one more question: does it happen when the screen goes black?
yes these apear after your settings
I had first part of settings ( yuy2 ) and I guess they apeared after I did the second part of settings ( soft and hard drop )
nope this is defenetly not related to soft and hard drop, im thinking now with my hd2. but tell me if you mean those squares when the screen goes black, cus somehow in the past i solved this.
when the screen is black , the squars are not visible
when I watch any movie, video they are very ugly ( in some grey area )
i cant notice any squares, once i had them left on the black screen, but i solved this, there are no squares!!
try use videos with higher bitrate, usually low-quality videos cause squares, also i would recommend to go back to the default settings to see if theres any difference which i guess there isnt.
EDIT: try unchecking Disable AVC Deblocking filter, and tell me if this helps. (this massivily drops the benchmark)
strange because I did not see them before
How I can reset to the default settings ?
install again ?
Try enabling avc deblocking filter (in the edit last post)

when I enable avc deblocking filter those artefacts are not so visible
but now freezes the playback, is not so fluid like before
when I disable avc filter it is smooth but with larger artefacts
I give up and go to sleep, thank you a lot,
to be continued
