Hello all,
I have bought a car radio working with windows CE 6.0. It's working well and there is a music player which can works while IGO is running; the player is include on the car radio. But it's an awful and non ergonomic thing, let you see : Impossible to have subfolders and ID3 sort.
Sure, I can replace the GPS app, IGO .exe by a loader( Myboot ) and launch a better player, as Nitrogen. But I will lose the music while GPS is running....
I want replace the music app which is launched when you press USB or SD on the screen (or press the "SRC' button) by another, a better one.
I think with windows CE the button for next & previous music will work, and same with the multitasking (GPS+Music for example)
Do you know if i can replace the original app by another ? Using WinCEPatch ?
Can you do it? How?

Hello All,
Ever since I got my MDA my old Toshiba e800 has been used less and less. However I do use it when traveling for media (bigger vga screen).
I like WMP 10. But it is not available as a standalone download from MS. And my Toshiba only has WMP 9. Is there a way to extract the installation file from the Wizard ROM so that I can install it on my Toshiba?
Thanks
PS...Or is there an alternate media player out there that has the 2 main features I want from WMP 10? I like the library (it is very similar to the one used in the desktop version of WMP 11). And showing album art for each song played.
Thanks
So basically I have been using Mortplayer with the Vista theme (looks like WMP11 desktop). But I really don't like the way mort player organizes, or rather allows access to, your music. It is very confusing. And I want my Girlfriend to be able to use it with little fuss (she is not very technically inclined, nor does she want to be)
WMP 10 has the same library structure as WMP Desktop 11. She is already comfortable with that "Type" of structure...i.e. Access by:
All music or
Album or
Artist or
Playlist or
Genre etc...
I assume that I what I asked above is either not possible, or is a big no-no (extracting WMP 10 from Wizard Rom).... So....
Any ideas what to do here?
Thanks
Ok, well never mind here....WMP Mobile 10 will not play nice with a networked folder..... iT works fine for traveling but as soon as we want to use it around the house browsing our large networked media drive it shows it's limitations.
Back to mort player...Thanks any way
Anyone else have this same problem ?
I'm refering to the Touch HD's music player, not the Windows Media Player.. The display and all that are awesome and I'd love to use the albumart function because I'm using the same thing on my PC but the WMP doesnt have that.
Playback is workable but it stops after awhile. And all the audio will be gone and I'd need to restart the device for the sounds to come back. Anyone have a fix for this?
I'm using
Windows mobile 6.1 pro
ROM Version 1.18.723.3 (23358) WWE
Probably you installed app for play/stop/next song by headset button??? If yes, just uninstall it
There is a hot fix on the HTC website that may apply if you already have not put it on.
Hi there, this will seem like a very strange request, but I want to know how (if at all) I can run the Manila Audio player without needing to run the full Manila interface as I prefer the day to day use of Mobile Shell 3.
The Manila Audio Player organises the media files very well, allowing searching of the library by album, artist, genre very well, and all with my rather chunky digits...
I have tried several other offerings to replace Windows Media Player, the library function of this is sadly way behind the touch capabilities of most of todays windows mobile phones...
"Slide to Play" seems a little too responsive in CoverFlo mode and does not contain all the functionality in landscape mode, shame really as I want to use it in the car as a portable music collection whilst also running my TomTom Sat Nav in Landscape mode.
Any other suggestions or a way of using Manila's media player would be greatly appreciated...
I looked through the phones file system and was unable to find an executable that runs the Manila audio player. It appears to place a shortcut into the start menu when Manila is set as your Today screen but the shortcut disappears when Manila is removed from the today screen. I checked the proprieties of the shortcut and it points to "\Windows\ManilaShortcut.exe" music
I copied the shortcut to a new folder in my start menu and removed Manila from my Today screen but the shortcut would not open the player. It seems that the audio player will only work from within Manila
hi,
as anybody found a way how I can use the audio player without on manila enabled.
thanks,
steffen
If you want a good sound quality with equalizers and lesson to music on your stereo Bluetooth headset, you can't rely on windows media player or HTC audiomanager. So far I tried all of the music player software on my HD2 but I wasn't satisfied with any of them. Previously I used the PocketPlayer 4.1 on my HD and that was really amazing, but when I changed my PDA to HD2, I really disappointed because I couldn’t control the playback with my Bluetooth headset. As you know the Option menu of pocketplayer cannot changed on winmo 6.5; therefore, if you want to change the setting, you must do it through the registry.
If you want to use this software as your music player and control it via your Bluetooth headset you can follow these steps:
1- Disable the HTC audiomanager (disable the music tab on manilla).
2- Install PocketPlayer 4.1.
3- Execute the application and go to Menu->More->Options and select the Plugins tab.
4- Touch "Update now" link and install the Conduits WM Adapter (your phone must be connected to the Internet).
5- Exit the software through the Menu (Not the X button) after the plugin is installed.
6- Go to registry HKCU->Software->Conduits->Pocket Player->Plugins->gen_wmhostand and change the entry {B71FB....} from 0 to 1.
7- Save the changes and soft reset.
That’s all. Please note that if you open the windows media player, it override the Bluetooth control. So, to use this tweak you must not run the media player.
I've been using the PocketPlayer since yesterday and the sound quality and volume is much better than the media player and audiomanager. Also, it is pretty satisfiable than my previous HD.
of course you can change the options of conduits pocket player on winmo 6.5.
Just go to the options tab, double-tap the option you want to change, open the keyboard and tap on ENTER.

Sorry my bad. I didn't know that.Thanks for the tip.
Just installed CPP 4 and it literally slowed my device to a snails place; had to reset (which took a couple of minutes to enable!)
I am considering buying HD2 and use Pocket Player everyday.
I would be grateful if people can answer a few questions:
- The method provided above (using the keyboard to access menus) work for any menu function? Including Options?
- If so, were you able to assign buttons for functions? I use a lot "back 10 seconds" and "play/pause" and would like to assign them for the "arrow" button or "windows" button (as ther is no media button on the device). Is this possible?
- considering slowing down the device, is it everyone's experience? Did you try installing to SD card (worked with me on Kaiser, despite some random slow downs)?
Thanks so much.
I had the HTC Touch HD for a year and had no problems using bluetooth audio streaming with the standard HTC music player on my JVC KD-AVX44.
Now I have the HD2 I always have to have Windows Media player running before I select "Bluetooth" on the head unit, otherwise it will not connect.
If I use Windows Media player then all is OK with the head unit.
However I would prefer (and expect) the standard HTC music player to be used like my old phone.
Have tried searching on this forum but cannot find any solution to change the default A2DP music player to the HTC one.
Does anyone have any ideas please?
Thanks
Strange....it works just fine for me. No need to run WMP.
In fact, AVRCP only works on HTC Sense Music player, which is kinda irritating as it's a bit slow imho.
agree with the last post. No issues with htc music
No issues for me too...
With Plantronics A590 & Toyota Avensis Bluetooth Audio System...
OK thanks all for the replies - I will contact HTC support and see if they have any ideas - thought they all might work in this way but seems not!
Cheers
maybe you have to enable "play system sound on external device" setting for this to work?

I have the same issue on my JVC KD-AVX44, audio streaming via the HTC album is just a no go for some reason.
However windows media player works fine displaying all ID3 tag info.
Unfortuntely I sold my old HD before getting this JVC head unit so never tried it out with that device.
What on earth have HTC done to cause this A2DP issue when using HTC album? it makes no sense.
I am currently using the latest 1.66 WWE ROM update.
no issues with my hd2... you should try differeny rom
Seems like you're trying to start the stereo connection from your audio device.
Try to connect using the HD2's Bluetooth interface. It's under settings -> menu -> more. Select your audio device from the list and choose 'Stereo Audio'. This should enable audio streaming for all sounds, including HTC's player.

Same here. JVC stereo 1.66 WWE ROM.
Worked fine with Touch HD but not HD2.
Not that big an issue though as I usually use the music player with Copilot. It was fine on the Touch-HD either Bluetooth or line-in cable but if I use the HTC music player (with line-in as I can't use Bluetooth), the music drops out constantly. It doesn't do this with Windows Media Player. Love the phone but bit dissapointed an otherwise inferior phone coped so much better with something that I make use of a lot.
I'll report it to HTC too.

Hi, i was wondering if you could expand on your steps. I got a chinese version and the steps seem to dissapear for me after the more.
In HD2, when i go to "more" i get the connections menu, where would i proceed or if this is incorrect? Thanks!

Hm... I wonder if your Chinese version has a different setup. This is what I do:
* On the settings tab in HTC Sense, I have one softkey on the bottom right that says "menu".
* When I tap this, a menu pops up with only one option (silly): "more".
* When I tap "more", I go to a screen with a number of settings icons: Bluetooth, Sounds & Notifications, Clock & Alarms...
*When I tap on "Bluetooth", I go to HTC's Bluetooth interface.
I WISH this would woprk with coreplayer too.
Did anyone find a fix to this? I've got the same head unit which works fine with my desire and spotify but not with my hd2.
Wmp on the hd2 will play over ad2p but the htc player and spotify will not. I get a brief 1 second of music and then nothing.
I've tried the various options of enabling system sound over ad2p, setting the connections to connect as one rather than separately but still no joy.
