Hi All,
I'm still having trouble playing .flv files in TCPMP. I've installed both TCPMP_netDrg_v2.cab and TCPMP-0.72RC1-GF5500Edition-Alpha4.1.CAB and while I can play other formats fine, I can't play .flv files. The version I downloaded for my Samsung Epix supported flash, but that was a while back and I don't have the cab file for that specific build.
Do I need to install a specific plugin? I've tried to comb some of the TCPMP threads, but those are pushing 100 pages. Any kind members willing to throw me a bone and help me out?
Thanks!
Anyone have a suggestion? I thought flv support was built into TCPMP. Do I need a plugin?
we're in the same boat, please needs good Samaritan here...thanks

hi folks hope someone has some ideas cos this problem is really bugging me!!!
if i download an flv from youtube using the flash video bundle it works fine on playback. no problems so far
if i download an flv using the desktop (say from Flikz etc) and transfer to the xda then try to play it comes up file type not supported???
anyone any ideas cos i always thought that this should play??
i have tried 3 different versions of tcpmp so far all with the flash video bundle
also if i try recompiling the file to mpeg the picture is fine but the audio goes to hell. this is random works fine on some files but duff on others, all play on the desktop though
has anyone else come across this or does anyone have any solution?
cheers for any advice

Please post this sort of stuff in the general forum, not the dev/hacking.

It's an issue with TCPMP, so it involves the development of TCPMP
Have you tried using YouTubePlay to load the *.flv files? Might work as I believe it uses slightly different codecs...

Hello Everyone,
I bought HTC Touch D2 a week back and now found that it is not playing .avi video files in windows media player. Is there any way to play .avi files or any player that I can install and play .avi files.
Friends please suggest and if somebody has any player that plays .avi files in fullscreen mode that would be very grateful.
Please post a cab file of a software.
Thanks in Advance.
TCPMP plays avi files
Download here.

edit: i didn't test this one. Maybe its a beta or demo but if so, you can find a full version over the net.
TCPMP works great. If you feel like buying something, then I would go with Coreplayer.

What?? TCPMP works on TD2 ??!! How??? What version???
I've tried many versions and the phone freezes when trying to play an .avi file.
I have the official ROM.
Could you please indicate what version of TCPMP is working ?
Thanks in advance.
anybody know if there`s a program to convert avi video file to a file that plays on topaz? i want to watch movies on my phone tried videora but cant seem to get it to work. a nice easy one would be great, a beginners one maybe?.... if there is such a thing!!!
Download Handbrake
http://handbrake.fr/
if you use the core player on your phone then you dont need to convert the files it will play them fine

thanks for that but same thing happened as with videora, it says "the file may be copied for storage or transport use only. it is not supported for use on the device". i converted it to mp4. think it might be to do with the video file itself i`m converting, its off a torrent. also when playing it through windows media player on my computer it says: "the selected file has an extension (.mp4) that is not recognised by windows media player, do you want to try anyway" an when playing the file the sound is there but no picture. do you need codecs for mobiles??? because when 1st playing the original file on my computer before converting it for my phone, same thing happened and i had to download codecs to watch it.
anyway thanks for your reply

Videora (TD2 Version) works perfectly for me...
Can you play back the original file on your PC?
And the converted one?
TCMP
Tcmp is your solution !
If you do a little search of this forum you may find a version of tcmp supporting the srt files.
With tcmp, you don't need to convert your avi files. It run pretty well in full screen with 700 mb divx files on my topaz.
use pocketdivxenc
Hi everyone,
I use this http://www.pocketdivxencoder.net/EN_index.htm on my topaz and it's incredible....try it.
I use Beta version 0.4.5 and the templates tool, and i saw on my topaz Terminator Salvation, District 9 & Start Trek without problem on CorePlayer .
I hope it works for u
sorry for my english !!!

thanks for this, will the files play on windows media player on my phone when i`v used this or do i need a different player?
Usually Divx/Xvid..files for PC have an exagerated bitrate for PPC use, that is why it is wise to convert them.
Here's my technique:
1) convert original divx/xvid file with HTC Touch HD Video Converter, available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467112
2) Copy resulting .mp4 file to SD
3) Play with HTC Album
Note: Coreplayer can play this file aswell, but I think that htc album playback is smoother.
Unfortunately HTC Touch HD Video Converter doesn't rip dvd, can anyone suggest some all-in-one application to easily make divx?
Hi
I have searched and RTFW.....but maybe I missed it somewhere.
Looking for a good player that will play FLV's on our device. Have tried youtubeplayer but I find that the timeline bar doesn't work so you can't fast forward through a vid.
Also it doesn't play all the FLV's I have.
Has anyone got any better solutions? I have tried TCPMP player with source forge FLV codec but it keeps crashing out :-(
Thanks and appreciate any help!
was gonna say tcpmp but you nixed that
Can you not convert flv into a nicer format?
I've found FLVs sometimes dont even work on desktop flvplayer for seeking or resizing - and that's down to the FLV file. only way to fix them is to play them through, or rebuild the stream....or convert to another better format.
I just think there are many crappy .flv files out there with lazy web-players.
If you are using a tool like dwhelper then get it to auto-convert on download to a sane format.
No issue for me with this TCPMP version - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=634951
Looking for a favour ASAP please guys (i.e, before I go to work :-D). I want to be able to transfer .avi files onto my phone and play them, and after searching around, installing stuff (such as Coreplayer & TCPMP), I've decided that they don't support .avi's, OR I've just downloaded the wrong .cab for my HD2.
Can anyone provide me with a link to a good-.avi-playing media player for my HD2 pretty please?
If it matters I'm just using the bog-standard 1.43 ROM at the moment.
Thanks for your help guys.
core supports avi...actually it supports mkv and ogm as well
there is a limit of size
if the file is above the normal 855x485 limitation that will cause problems and you will only hear sound and no video. But core supports those file types
heck I love watching my noir ogm. Try to go to options and ensure you have chain's graphic driver and 100% smooth...it'll make a difference
So why do I get 'Unknown file type' errors when trying to play .avi files? Both TCPMP and Core
Any answers quickly please?? Hate to be pushy, but I've got just under an hour.
Just two quick suggestions:
1) Do the files work on your PC?
2) Your phone is unplugged from your PC when you try to play?
3) Have you tried loading the .avis from within the app rather than just clicking on them in File Explorer?
Thanks for your help buddy.
Yes, to all 3 questions mate. Is there a codec pack or something for the HD2? As a very select few play OK, yet most don't, but they are all .avi, makes me wonder if it's a codec problem.
Did u try this version of tcpmp?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=634951&highlight=tcpmp
Yeah just tried that one, same problem mate. Weird, huh?
That's weird. I can play .avi files with that version of TCPMP.
Copied straight over, or do you convert them first?
I copied straight to my storage card. What's the resolution of the video? Try playing different .avi video, i.e different size, different resolution , and see if it works?
