Best music sites - HD2 General

I'm just wondering what are the best music sites that don't need flash to play the video like youtube where you have to watch using the mobile version and then half the videos aren't encoded to support the mobile version.
So just wondering what is the best site to use to listen to a song that will work on the hd2?

if you just want to listen to a song with no video try beemp3.com/

If you really want a 'site' I can't help you, but it sounds like you are looking for this application - it's great

Yeah thanks, the site and the app will both do exactly what I want. Cheers

for some reason it keeps hangin up on random files when I first run program and it scans all directories....anyways to bypass this or set it so it only scans certain folders?
what a fast and cool app. so speed is possible on windows mobile

you must be kidding, there's nothing like tcpmp 0.81, good rom and set of plugs lol!
regardless of that, will try Kinoma(i'm surprised by that release).
I think this app is simply awesome. I will be upgrading h to full version ASAP. Great find; thanks for posting.
Best surprises:
- SPEED
- streaming podcasts
- auto update of local content
- internet radio
only thing missing that would make me pee myself: Pandora
thanks. concept is cool and could be replacement for a lot of apps. but video playback without fullscreen just doesnt get it done. maybe if you have smartphone with no touchscreen.
Yeah...it is a great app.... I love how you can use Shoutcast in the free version.
Did anyone find a way to make the YouTube part play in landscape mode?
$30 for a video player... I know WMP is not great but TCPMP is free and works darn well. Looks like Kinoma has a "free" version but the site does not tell you if this is a trial period only, if there are missing features, or ?
i found out that this version does not play my wma files, so its in some parts a limited version. ALso i could not find a qway to play youtube in landscape ?
amazing! only bad that fullscreen doesn't work.
It doesn't seem to support DivX...?!

Media Player?

I have been looking on youtube everywhere but nobody has demo the music player so i'm guessing its the same as on the Hero.Evo owners can u tell me if it is the same or post a pic of the music player?
its the same
get real player beta hands down the best
the stock player is pretty decent, but the best music player i have used is MixZing. read the reviews, it's awesome.
for video playback get mVideoPlayer
does Mvideo play any container?(or most containers?)

it is a thin wrapper around the android video playback architecture, so it will play what android normally plays. your best bet is h264+aac in an mp4 container with the proper settings (basically anything the iphone will play, without protection). it also adds some nice features the htc gallery app doesn't have, such as saving your spot in your videos, subtitle support, etc.
Cool thanks I was hoping for something that would let me play my files unconverted but with handbrake it's not much of a hassle to convert
It's pretty much the same as the Hero, but it seems to do steaming MP3s and whatnot now. Before with my Hero, it would have to download them, and then I would have to play them.
stock music i'm sure is the same.
there finally is a music player with an eq, but i don't remember where it is. i think the apk can be found in the nexus forums. seems to work okay.
right now, i'm kind of digging 'cubed' (actually named with a superscript 3 on the market, but if you search for cubed, you'll find it part way down the list). beautiful interface, and widget. i finally may have found an app worth donating to, lol
I like meridian .. have tried them all..
i don't have android phone... do any of the media players allow you to create playlists from the phone? that way i can dump all my music on my phone and organize it on the fly.

Does anyone know of a way to tell the cubed player which folders to look for music in? It keeps pulling in game sounds from sniper vs sniper....

Which applications to install first?

I'll be new to Android, and don't really know what is available. I did a search for Android Marketplace, and got "This is a showcase for some of the featured and top ranked applications and games available on Android Market. For a comprehensive, up-to-date list of the tens of thousands of titles available, check out Android Market on your handset."
It's not particularly easy to find stuff, when you don't really know what you're looking for. I will find out tomorrow what the marketplace is like, on the EVO.
But, in the few remaining hours before that becomes possible, I wanted to find a few applications to install and play around a bit and try to get a feel for the system.
So, what should I/will you install tomorrow (or later)? I'm sure I'll find some cool stuff on my own eventually, but some suggestions from current enthusiasts would be welcomed by me, and others I'm sure.
I figure everyone's got a favorite app or 5, how about some suggestions?
one of the neatest, but only useful in clear sky at night, outside, preferably in the country, is google sky maps.
fring rocks for syncing up skype and gtalk. you'll dig it for the new vid call thing, i'm sure
weatherbug elite is my weather app of choice
andexplorer is what i use to navigate through my sdcard
cubed is a good music app. very nice looking (app actually spelled with superscript 3, if you go looking for it on market)
chrome to phone is good for sending links to the phone, but i think it needs froyo
google navigation should come stock, but it's a rockstar
vlc remote
terminal emulator
others - where, layar, wikitude, and adfree for sure, if you're rooted
Excellent list, thanks!

Thank, but I am looking for something to play my locally stored music and videos, not streaming.
I found and installed the cubed app, but it just says it can't find files in the playlist or some such thing, and the only choice I have is to exit. So a no go on that one also.
I'll keep looking
let me know when you find it the player!
im kinda disappointed that there is no flash viewer (*.flv) for files that reside on the sd card. unfortunately it looks like we have to wait for coreplayer to come out.

tvcatchup on windows mobile

Hi there,
I was looking at how the iphone streams the channels on tvcatchup, the video format used is m3u8. I found a player for windows mobile that says it can play m3u8 video format, called 'Pocket Player'. Messing about with the setting i've managed to get it directly open the video from clicking the link on the website but my problem, ive got is that it only stays as 'connecting' and wont play it. Im not too sure how to get it working, but maybe its just a thing that wont work but any ideas would be great.
Thanks
Ryan_G
Skyfire will play tvcatchup within it's own window. however, yamgo.mobi will use the WM streaming app to play live tv.

You can used tvcatchup via m.tvcatchup.com works very nice via the streaming app.
Or just use the MyPlayer application available on this forum and you get all the live streaming channels you want.
m.tvcatchup works great !!! thanks v.much

Yep, myPlayer gets my vote as it has more streams and 3 different levels of quality. High quality is better than the tvc high quality imo.
