I got a HD2 two days ago and I'm over the moon, I love it! However, there's one thing that's bugging me.
I want to be able to switch back to the built-in video player if I have to pause the video and navigate away to another application. I know this is possible with the Task Manager but I'd like to do it from a shortcut in Quick Links.
This is what I've done so far:
1) Created a shortcut in the built in File Explorer to "My Device\Windows\HTCVideoPlayer.exe"
2) Moved the shortcut to "My Device\Windows\Start Menu\Multimedia\"
3) Added a Quick Link to HTC Video Player (which now appears in the Programs list)
Despite completing the above steps when I open a video, pause it, navigate away to another application, tap the Video Player Quick Link, it doesn't switch back to the video. Instead, it kills the app completely and it no longer appears in Task Manager.
I'm probably being a bit ambitious by wanting to do this but it would be great to get it working.
Can anyone help with this?
Many thanks in advance.
The default parameters are: HTCVideoPlayer.exe -F "%1"
Hello all,
I was curious about the possibility of editing the windows/Transformers.exe to allow you to place other movies into the sd/transformers folder and update the exe allowing you to utilize it as a movie browser/selector. I placed some other movies into the folder and renamed it "movies" however I do not know how to edit the .exe to recognize them or even if this is possible.
I would be curious if this is possible as it would allow you to place shortcut on program grid in Sense for faster/easier browsing of movies.
Does anyone know of any way to place link to a folder into grid. If this were possible the issue would be mute.
Thanks for any input regarding this!
Transformers doesn't have a separate movie browser. It uses the HTC vid app. Its just the way the movies were formatted that make them look so good.

Looks like you didn't really read the OP, I think he's asking if there's a way to add movies to the list that you see after launching Transformers.exe
To OP:
I think it may be possible depending on much of the assembly is hackable

My bad... Reading is fundamental! I'm going to assume there has to be a regedit that points to the transformers movies.
I know this is a lame answer, but why not just put your movies in a folder and fire up file explorer?

Sense style file explorer would look like that, that's why.
Okay, okay. Resco 2010 can be themed to look (and act) a heck of a lot like sense, and it supports thumbnail previews and all sorts of rich media browsing experiences. And it's just a file browser, too.

Thanks for the input. Maybe I will give that a try. I suppose a better solution would be the ability to link to folders thru Sense interface rather than having to open a file explorer type prog.
For now I suppose a folder in the start menu will have to do. Thanks again!
I will try encoding a video file to the same specs as the Transformer movies and put it in the folder. Although I have noticed and mp4 file will use that video player to view the file.

How can we find out the specs for the pre-loaded Transformers movies? And what do you recommend we use to convert movies we may have on our PC's?
connect you phone to your comp as a disk drive. then go to the transformer folder and right click on either file and click properties
Interesting Question
I could be completely reading into this wrong, but let me throw my two cents in.
My buddy and I were discussing how we loved watching the Transformer's movie, especially because you can use the seek function without leaving full-screen mode. If you use windows media player, when you tap the screen in fullscreen mode it immediately reverts back to windowed format.
Someone else had already mentioned above how the transformers.exe uses the HTC video player. However, if you open a program in File Explorer it uses Windows Media player. Basically, I wanted to be able to use the HTC video player for all my videos.
Thankfully this is possible to do, it is just annoying. Here is how you can watch videos using the HTC player:
1) Start Menu > Albums
2) Tap on "Albums" at the bottom left-hand corner (softkey)
3) Under Storage Card or My Device, tap on My Videos (or the name of the folder where you have your videos)
4) Tap on video
By doing this, you can utilize the awesome HTC video player!
I hope this helps with what you were trying to do.
Yeah, I tried the same thing as going through the file explorer isnt one click access (unless you always leave it in the Movies folder). Here's one alternative, but the GUI needs a little work http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520604. It would be cool if someone picked up this project and improved it just a little. But, it works at least though.
that program would be awesome if it's polished up.
Yea, I was kind of wanting to encode the movies to avi to save space. I didnt know how to get the shortcuts to link up with the other movies instead, so I havent done it yet.
how bout a shortcut

i too tried in vail to add my movies to the transformers folder in file explorer, is there a way to add a short cut to my movies folder in the quicklinks?
maybe you guys can help me out...
i removed transformers from my sd card and onto my computer in an effort to conserve space.. but now i realize that i'm not gonna use all the space.. so i decided to put the movies back on sd card.. the only issue is that now my transformers shortcut.. doesn't work.. it gets to the page where i have to click either transformers 1 or transformers 2.. then when i select one of them.. it states that the media cannot be found..
so yea.. i was wondering if anyone can assist me in making that shortcut work again... i'm assuming that i have to direct a file using a registry editor.. or something... i think something along those lines.. i can't imagine this being really all that hard.. so please someone help me out and kinda guide me through it.. any suggestions?>

There has to be and I just haven't found it yet. When I just copy past a shortcut, it never works when I go to the start menu and click on it. Although, if I'm in Windows folder and click on it, it opens the Movies folder.
thanx

Search the Market, there's a lot of free apps there that you can choose from.

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.

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.
Hello, everyone! I'm in the lengthy process of migrating all of my data/apps over from my Galaxy Note running CM10.1 to my now-rooted S4, and i've noticed a peculiar issue.
On my Note, i have the latest apk of Adobe's Flash Player installed (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1848508) and this app installed to handle swf files. I have a giant collection of swf files from around the internet, mostly small loops, and keep them in my Dropbox, and on my Note, i can pull any of them up and play them using this app.
However, on my S4, the swf files behave very oddly. They'll only play the first frame of the animation and then the app will hang and crash, and not just that one app, but the top three swf players on the Play store all have this same issue (all three work fine on my Note). But, in spite of that, the files play fine if i open them in Firefox or Boat,
I'm assuming this has to do with the fact that the S4 is running a stock rom, and the Note is running Cyanogenmod, but what do you guys think? The versions are all the same, of Flash Player and the SWF players, across both devices, and both devices are running 4.2.2
Yea thats a good question. I think it needs answers. So !bump .
Could it be the graphics chip?

More than likely not, because the flash files render fine in Firefox. I have a feeling that it's the fact that the rom is odexed, or another side effect of touchwiz
swf on S4, major PITA
I've resisted the urge to register this forum in the past but this particular thread is of great importance for me. Please tell me you found a solution to this problem (the exact one I'm having). At least did you manage to exclude some reasons if not find the culprit?
Thank you!
Looks like you already know android no longer supports flash. I have a different device and I have a similar issue. Flash works fine on cm but not the stock os. I nandroid between the two if I need to use flash player.

Tested swf player
I've tested both SWF Player & Smart Flash Player on CM with *swf files. It works in the sense that you can see swf movies/cartoons with very little interaction. However, games that have much interaction are not playable because the pointer behaves strangely (auto double clicks, doesn't click at all if you do it too rapid etc.)
I'll try some tweaks and come back later to tell you if it's OK. If you have some tips please don't hesitate to tell me.
Has someone tried the above software for Android 4.3 for S4 Google Edition?
My conclusions (?)
OK, so here's what I did:
I've put the Android 4.3 Deodexed version, installed the *swf player and tried to play games once again.
The behavior was identical with that on CM: jittery, too sensitive in some cases and not enough sensitive in others. I've tested about a dozen games ranging from adult to survival, RPG, room escape on SWF player and Smart Flash Player.
For example as soon as you touch the screen inside a game the screen can go wild, scrolling too much in one direction. Also, if there are line of dialogue in a game that you skip by tap you may press only once to see that you skipped 2 or 3 lines of dialog. When you select an object to see its options you see just a flash of the options and you are sent back. When you have to tap rapidly it doesn't work: you have to do it slow so it can be interpreted. Also, some flash cartoons lag much more than they did on my S1.
To manage this I have installed 3 touch-screen tweaking programs. As the option were numerous I had not time to try them all but the results were more or less the same with what I've managed at that time.
Of course, the solution for testing was very easy and should have been tried in the first place. I have attached a mouse to see that the results are almost the same. However, I recommend playing with mouse because it's much more precise.
Conclusion 1: swf on stock rom does not work most probably because of the TouchWhizz. That doesn't mean a flash update from Adobe can not resolve this.
Conclusion 2: swf does not work because of the flash player apk itself rather than the rom or swf player you're having;
I for one will keep my S1 close until Adobe releases a mobile flash version that works like on my old phone. Yeah, I know that could mean an eternity .
Oh, and another, offtopic, conclusion: Android Beta 4.3 - Google Edition - Deodexed stinks big time. There's not one application that didn't force close on me repeatedly. I'll try the Odexed but I doubt it will change things. If it doesn't I'll stick with CM until a more stable version of 4.3 comes out.
Can someone tell me if there is a software that can adjust the sensitivity of an S4? I mean to the phone itself, not the touch-screen. I don't care about the supported rom. ...Or I could take a more dangerous path, of changing the DPI if there is an application for that,
Thank you!
Strange behaviour wtith swf in stock rom
Back again with, what I consider, important observations.
I did a restore for my stock rom yesterday. Out of curiosity I wanted to see what swf files I can play from stock because when my phone came and I first tried it there were two swf version 10 files, out of ~30 that worked with Swf Player. I thought I could decompile some games to FLA, downgrade them to v10, publish and play them.
Now, instead of SWF Player I used Smart Flash Player. I was scratching my head as about a third of the games were loading and seemed functional. However, I didn't test the jerky behavior I told you abut in the previous post.
I wanted to copy those particular files in a new folder to know that those are playable and to my surprise games no longer worked. Did a reboot, cleared cash from Flash Player and tried again. Out of the ~10 that worked minutes before I had only about 3 or 4 games working. Now that's weird.
Today, out of many tries, I didn't manage to make even one game play with Smart Swf Player but one worked with Swf Player.
I have no idea what's happening but it seems stock rom IS capable of running local swf files with dedicated players. We just have to find what are the circumstances in which they do.
LE: I can easily play local swf movies or games with little interaction on stock rom, almost full screen, using web browser. Please let me know if you need a tutorial for that. My posts refer only to games with much more interaction.
OK, here's what you can do to play local .swf files on SGS 4's stock rom:
First, please be aware that you may experience some lag when playing swf movies/games and you lack the virtual gamepad for playing keyboard games.
1) Download SWF Player - Flash File Viewer & UC Browser for Android from Google Market (I haven't yet tested UC Browser HD but it should also work)
2) You must have the latest version of Flash Player installed. Search for Adobe Flash Archives, go to the result page and download the latest Android 4.0 version (at this moment it's 11.1.115.69)
3) Run SWF Player and browse to the local swf file you want to play. Tap once on the swf file and an option dialog will appear (if not, please activate it from app's settings; it should be activated by default). Right at the beginning you will see Open Mode.
The default setting is "use HTTP Protocol (Video Streaming)". Instead of that option choose the second one "use local HTML file". Afterwards you may be prompted to choose the app that opens your file in case you have more than one program that can handle swf files and you didn't set a default. Pick SWF Player to open. Of course the swf will not open correctly (that's the reason for my tutorial in the first place).
4) A very small HTML file has just been created, with approximately the same name, in the same folder as the swf file. Do not tamper with that html file.
5) Use any file browser (you can use even SWF Player) to reach that html file and open it with UC Browser. If needed, chose the full screen mode from browser's options.
That's all. Enjoy your swf movie/game!
Note 1: Tested many Internet Browser. UC Browser is, by far, the best. It is one of the few, if not the only one, that can play almost anything thrown at him, can play local files, has a real full screen mode for flash (unlike Firefox for example) and has the best sensitivity. UC Browser looks like SWF Player without the virtual pointer and game-pad.
Note 2: It is obvious that Flash Player for Android 4.0+ is no longer a priority for Adobe and it is pretty unstable, no matter what rom, software or tweak you use.
Note 3: For the above tutorial you may try other previous Flash versions as it is possible you may find a more stable one. Please let me know if you find something.
Note 4: A very promising Browser seems to be the Puffin Browser. For the moment it can not play local files but it has virtual game-pad, virtual mouse pointer and it seems to have the right sensitivity (no lag between taps). I will write developer and will keep a close watch on that app.
LE: no need for the extra hassle with SWF player app to create html . Just use your regular file browser and select open as text. UC Browser should then be one of the options to open that file.
How am I supposed to play games without contros in UC browser?
Bro could you find a way to games using gamepad inside the browser or something? ?
it works Assrider

You're welcome!
Things changed a bit since my previous posts. You can now use FlashFox (not affiliated with Mozilla or Adobe), with full-screen add-on, to enjoy your local swf files.
UC Browser does not support local swf play since version 9.2. It's a good thing I made a backup of the app. I still use it to play local swf.
I use HTML ANALYZER for Download(ad) (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.kensmix.pictrosefree&hl=en) to download .swf files and play them when offline.

Try "SWIFT Player, A Flash player" (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=air.gamerush.flash.filemanager&hl=en). It supports both Jelly Bean & KitKat and has a virtual game pad.
Let me know if it worked.
Swift app etc doesn't support action script 2.2 as per adobe AIR error message. I see looping flash in both.
Closest I found is DOLPHIN browser but no keyboard visible at flash swf. It can use embedded controls though.
We can use hacker keyboard to view arrow keys strangely keyboard toggle not available in browser.
Requested dolphin developers to create gamepad or We need keypad always visible option.
Flashfox app has keyboard toggle but does not play swf.
I think assrider answered about uc browser.

I confirm that FlashFox is extremely unstable with swf files (unlike UC browser v9.2) but, if you insist, it can play most, if not all, swf files.
Of course, you can toggle the keyboard and install GamePad for free (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fishstix.gameboard&hl=en_GB) or the £2 GameKeyboard + (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.locnet.gamekeyboard2).
I've personally tested, just minutes ago, GameKeyboard + with local swf, in FlashFox and it works. For movement I had to use the right (not left) virtual thumbstick. With minor tweaks it should work like a charm The game was playable, although I can see it used more in slow-paced games, like Strategies or RPGs rather than Action games.
For GamePad I have to do some tweaks/settings which are not on my list right now. The standard/default D-pad is not working.
With FlashFox you have to insist in opening a swf file. For example, I used it to open a local swf file but it didn't work. I tried it on the next one and that one worked. I immediately exit and retried the previous one, that didn't work seconds ago and... now it worked.
I recently discovered this browser so I know little about it. My belief is that at least one of the previous versions should have been stable. I see this all the time with browsers. I am very, very reticent in updating them so I recommend you the same.
UC Browser v9.2 plays local .swf files in full-screen mode without the need of creating a html file. If you do the same now it acts like it's trying to download the file, not to play it.
Steps, using UC Browser v9.2 and Root Explorer 3.0.1*:
1) Use Root Explorer to browse to the local file;
2) Long tap the .swf file;
3) Select "Open With"
4) Go to the "General" tab
5) Select "Open as Text"
6) From the "Complete action using" window select UC Browser
7) Tap the "Just once" button and you're ready to play
*Note that you should have Adobe Flash for Android 4.0+ already installed. Also, you may be required to insist, by refreshing the page if it doesn't work on first try (it usually happens for big size files).
You can use other file browsers, with the condition that "Open as Text" doesn't use a proprietary plugin to open the file as a real text, with gibberish characters.
OK here is the trick I used
1. Side load (method tutorial in Google) flash apk for dolphin browser
2. Install flashfox browser
3 Install hacker’s keyboard and select 5 lines layout for portrait and landscape
4 Configure language and input mode settings for input mode switch go to advanced settings for experts in default keyboard if required (optional step)
5 Load local swf in open as text mode using file explorer like ES (thanks assrider) in flashfox browser
6 Click Menu Toggle Keyboard
Enjoy. It is slow but playable

Thanks for the feedback and for your suggestions! Unfortunately, I think this thread does not have good visibility so it can only be found by a Google search (like I did in the first place ). Also, it's possible that there are other underground threads in which this problem got a solution already.
I wanted to add that GameKeyboard + can be brought up anytime (recommend to use it in UC Browser 9.2) by pressing the volume up button.
"How to call up GameKeyboard
- enable "Settings->Use HotKey" then use [Vol. Up]/[Mouse Middle] as hotkey
- enable "Settings->Use Hotspot" then tap on hotspot screen corner"
I recommend you read the entire description of this beautiful app.
There is no need for the buggy FlashFox after all. Not to mention that in UC Browser you can play even fast paced games.

Hello everyone,
When I try to play a video i get a pop up asking me which app to use. So i select Samsung video player then click always. But at some point the pop up will come back again asking me the same thing. Any idea how to fix it?
Sometime i get this
I think only way to fix it is make it become default app

Does the pop up come up after you install another app that has the same function? If so, that is the reason. If not..??? Try deleting the cache???

Thanks for your reply.
I managed to find the problem but I don't know how to fix it. If i chose video player as default it works fine even when I restart the phone, but once I open a video from whatsapp i get the same massage. This massage will erase my default player setting as will outside of whatsapp.

Each app has to be told which Default app to use. After you choose a default app in whatsapp you don't have to select it again when you use whatsapp again, right? But if you go into another app that needs to play a video, you also need to train that app to which video player you want as default.
I think that's what's happening in your case, hopefully. . Good luck.
I think I found the problem but I don't know how to fix it. I have two video players from Samsung with same icon. One is named "Video" and the other "Video Player". These two players use the same version which is version 1.0.
When I open a video from the gallery i get the complete action and It gives me the icon for the Video player and when I open a video from whatsapp it gives me the same icon but for the Video app. I'm not sure which one to delete. This is strange problem
Which one do you have video player or video? I think video player. I will try to freeze one since i'm rooted and see the result.
Okay I found the problem. Its an app called ES explorer which has some type of player called ES player that's pop when i want to play video from whats app and it erase the default player for some reason.
I have the same problem with whatsapp and my S6 edge... But I haven't es explorer...? please help me...
