guys i think i might be in deep ****. i installed a software called pocketdivx on my exec. when i tried to play any avi or divx files i got an error like 'wave audio error'. i tried uninstalling it but it could not be removed completely. now the situation is that i m stuck with it...my media player wont play any mp3 files since they are now attached to the pocketdivx. plz help....

You can either try to fix the assosiations in media player, its in the options some where,
or, you could do a hard rest. this will remove all the data and any programs you have installed, so make sure you have a recent sync and a backup.

Media Panel refuses to play?

Hi,
Everything was working fine, but now, for some reason, the media panel won't play any music, it ust seems to be stuck on paused. The panel is still responsive and I can view pictures and contacts etc, it's just that the 'play' button doesn't work
Anyone else had this problem, or know what's causing it?
Also slightly less importantly, my Storage Card doesn't show in WMP (works fine in File Explorer though) - what have I missed haha

did you try to soft reset?
i had that on my tytnII i couldnt accces sd i put the sd in the pc it saw it and then i put the sd back in the phone it worked. maybe you could givi it a try

Yup, done all the soft-resets and reinsertions of memory cards that I can be bothered with haha.
Really rather not have to hard reset, just got it set up etc, who know's what'll cause it to do it again!!

There is a thread here or over at xperia1.net that explains it, but this issue is only if you've installed the Youtube cab from Manilla (as it changes the way it plays stufff).
So, if you've installed the Manilla Youtube cab, there is a fix out there somewhere (you need to basically edit the registry), but don't ask me where Been a few weeks sience I searched for it.

Your problem with non playing video seems similar to the one I had, please read below.
Possible problems with Pubba panel instaler V2
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Norti,
Iv just done a hard reset back to default on my stock rom, but when I install Pubba panel installer v2, media files no longer play in Sony Media player or Windows media player, The James Bond stock video and other music files do not play.
Iv tried to eliminate all other causes by doing hard resets and testing each program, Touch 3D is great, but the panel installer seems to corrupt the media files and or there file association.
It seems media files in system ram prior to installing panel installer are not recognised and are treated as being corrupted.
If you have a cooked rom or you deleted all your stock rom video early on then you may have not noticed this error.
Please have a look at the panel installer as the ability to listen to music or listen to the radio while browsing is a very useful function.
PS best reason yet to own an X1 - Top Gear on BBC iplayer, fantastic, its what the X1 was made for !

Problem with Windows Media Player

I installed the program Sun High MediaPlayer but it didn't work. So, I then tried to remove the software without success.
Now my windows media player doesn't want to launch. So, I tried to install the core player but it doesn't launch either. Worse it froze my device and I have to soft reset!
Then, I downloaded a cab file (SJ WMP_10) on xda to reinstall wmp ... but I get the message that it doesn't have the authorization to install and then the device froze and I have to soft reset! Ouch!
Can somebody help me:
1) to recover my wmp?
2) recommend a player for mp4 files
thanks a lot and happy new year!

it looks to me like that Sun Player has damaged some of the windows media library... if you havn't got much on your hd, maybe hard reseting will be faster than trying to find a solution?

Hard reset was indeed the solution. Thanks.

TouchFlo Music Player not working at all!

Hello guys..
New to the forum, but not to the game - so sorry beforehand if there is already a thread concerning this issue. A link to that thread would more than suffice, but after a few minutes of searching I couldn't find anything - so here goes:
My Blackstone really acts up when I try to use the Music Player in TouchFlo3d. Meaning, all I have to to is slide the menu over to the "Music" tab - and TouchFlo immediately restarts/resets and I end up back at the "Home" window. I've tried formatting the SD card (was thinking maybe it was my music files acting up), but that didn't do the trick. At the moment I just use Media Player Mobile, which is good enough, but I would really love for the actual TouchFlo player to work as well.
Thanks a lot for any help regarding this !
Sincerely, Naxos aka Joachim.

Well why don't you start off by explain how you came to get this problem in the first place? What did you install.
I doubt it will just screw up like that.

Of course, sorry.. that's just the point, and probably why I forgot to mention it. This actually happened like the first night I ever used the phone, so I had installed absolutely nothing yet. I was "new" to the phone then, so I just disabled music tab for TF3D, until now - cuz now I've come to know the phone well enough, and I want to get the problem fixed.
I had synched a few songs via WMP from my desktop computer, and the first time I added them they worked. But as I tried to listen to a few of them, scrolling back and forth, checking the menus etc, suddenly (sounds weird, but that's how i experienced it) it started acting up as previously explained.
Currently the only stuff I've installed to the phone is:
-Official HTC Fixes
-Coreplayer(legit)
-HDTweak
-tnyynt SD Tuner
-MusicID
Really sorry that I really can't explain anymore as to how the whole problem occurred in the first place, and of course I understand if this prevents you guys from really helping at all. Of course, a hard reset would probably do the trick - but I would very much like to avoid that!

My TF3D music player screwed up when i tried to play wma files, as soon as i removed those and only added mp3 files it's ben working fine.

you could check your phone (internal memory and sd card) for unsupported music file format
as long as the stupid thing (tf3d player) scan the entire device for media files, it can stuck on one of those unsupported formats.
it happened to me when i first added my ringtones, so that can be it.
good luck!

Thanks noris, but even that wasn't the thing it seems
searched my whole device for anything but mp3 files, and came up with nothing, I mean other than my ringtones tho.. don't really want to delete all of those..
hm, I'm really at a loss here - so one final effort for some hero out there to help me please! else I guess I'm going for the hard reset
thanks for the replies, anyway!

I had a similar issue with 'Santogold' by Santogold. I read on some other forum that the Touch Flo music player locks out if you have an album title with the same name as an artist! Sounds crazy, but ...I removed the Santogold album and it worked fine. Transpires it loaded in the tracks upto that album then had a fit and kept throwing me out. I still can't figure out what's wrong with the file. It's an mp3 format album purchased from 7Digital. http://www.7digital.com/artists/santogold/santogold/ (encoded at 256k). Have a look at all the music you're transfering over to the HTC and see if there's any music files that bear these similar traits.
I've also had the random audio pauses using the player, bizarre digital scrobbling noises (had to reset device to fix that one). Nearly all of my files were ripped to MP3 using Windows Media Player 11 at 128k. The whole Touch Flo interface is buggy. Are we all raising these bugs with HTC? I have raised a couple so far. Latest being the mail previews (in the envelope graphic) not being able to flick through previews. Seems to happen if the device is reset and you go straight into mail once it fires up, or if the device is left on standby for more than a couple of hours and you go into mail. You have to flick through sms previews first and THEN go back to mail for it to work. Crazy crazy stuff!

Can't load Windows media and HTC music player

Hi,
For no reason, suddenly my HD can't play music using the HTC music player. i realise that i can't start my windows media player also. What should i do? pls dun tell me to hard reset.
Thanks

Hi,
Any can help?

try to check your sd-card. e. g. put it into your computer and do a scandisk over it.
when those multimedia applications start they try to load your playlist which is mostly on your sd-card. if it is corrupted the midiaplayer might not start.
if this is your problem take a look in the rom section. there´s a thread in the discussing the point "sd-card not shown"

Hi,
My SD card should be okay cos i can use core player to play those songs. is there any other possiblity?
Thanks

Hi,
I tried removing my sd card still can't start up my windows media. is there a way to reinstall windows media without hard reset??

I have the same problem.
I asked vodafone if they had a solution and the only answer I got was that I could send it for repairs but it would cost me between 60-90 euro...
