Windows Media Player 10

Sorry if this has been asked already, but none of my searches yielded any results, so here's my question:
Is there a way, and if so what's the easiest way, to put Windows Media Player 10 on my PDA2K?

I am also looking for methods to install WMP 10 in XDA IIs. can anyone please help getting it out from the magician, or some other pda with wmp 10. please help...

Right now, it isn't possible. WMP is deeply rooted in the operating system, and unless HTC issues an update, chances of getting it done are about nil.
Microsoft's way to make people regret buying their $650 powered product... and for investing twice that in a Media Center PC...

until now.. 2005 still no WM10? this is crap...

Seems the only potential way is to port Magician ROM over to XDA2 or XDA2s. Even that, it will be a long time coming. Hard to find someone with all the devices, and with deep understanding of the device drivers. I reckon that there quite a number that works only for Magician that will failed when used in XDA2/XDA2s.

Right you are, Magician has several different hardware components that will make this difficult, or in my opinion, impossible.
For one, Magician has a different Bluetooth hardware, and two, the device keys have different hardware (internal layouts at least). Anyways, HTC is actually very good in keeping current with ROM updates, I doubt we won't see WMP10, the only question is if it will be before WM2005 or not.
The only stumbling block to WM2005 on Blue Angel is the DIMCOMM (oops, sorry, Widcomm) hardware. It's up to if M$ will approve WM2005 devices that do not use their supported BT hardware (which would be every BT that isn't Widcomm-based).
Yes, Bluetooth in the device could prevent us from getting WMP10. But hey, that's Microsoft for you...

I don't really get it. I can't see why the player needs to be adapted to hardware. The pocket PC os has the sound drivers. Why cant they make a version 10 install thing?

Why do u all need that WMP10 ? Whats what u cant do w WMP9 ?

So Windows Media Player 10 is necessary for better DRM handling. There are several Video and Audio services that are not available with Series 9.
For instance, I buy all my music via Napster. Napster uses WMA format and even though Windows Media Player 9 supports WMA, I cannot play my DRM protected WMA without burning a CD and re-encoding it. I can actually play them from the XDA, but I can't play them from my 1gb sd card so it isn't very helpful. Also Windows Media Player 10 allows us to download from music rental services. Napster 2.0 or Napster to go costs 15 bucks a month and allows you to download about 1gb of music without paying 99 cents per song.
There are similar video drm schemes that demand windows media player 10 too. There are video rental sites that will allow you to download video and save them to your Windows Media Player 10 enabled device.
people download this stuff illegally those who choose to follow the law would really like to have Windows Media Player 10.

I see, this is A reason, i didnt think into this 'coz i never bought music from ms or apple. Now i understand ur side thanks ;-)

Windows Media Player Video playback problem

Hi all,
I am getting a choppy video of WMV 9 series video files as well as other formats also on Windows Media Player 10.3 over Windows Mobile 6 , ROM Version 3.7.707.1 WWE. i tried using CorePlayer, DIVX and several other players but still video is choppy. I was using HP iPaq 6515b Windows Mobile 2003 SE (HTC beetles) and there the performance is quite good comparable to this.
Is it a problem of hardware or there are some settings needed for this?
Kindly advise me for this...
Cheers
Nish

Zune HD, WinCE 6.0

Given that the Zune HD runs Windows CE 6 as its underlying OS, wouldn't it be possible to somehow port the Zune's browser, and maybe even media player over to WinMo? And similarly, could we get WinMo running on a Zune HD?

Never mind, I see that this is already being worked on... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=564591

[DEV] VLC on Windows Mobile

It seems that Videolan is searching for developpers, but i'm not able to, so i allow myself to join another thread in another forum, maybe someone could make something ??

Thanks.

Hi guys,
No one is interrested or I have posted in the wrong section ?
Thanks

VLC has been trying for some time to get on Windows Mobile. It needs to happen. An open source video player would be one of the best additions to WM software.

he really miss a player for windows mobile.
TCPMP no longer fit for our machine can not handle hardware acceleration.
I find it really unfortunate that it was not 1 player worthy of Windows Mobile. same core player does not pay can handle certain codecs.

i fully agree with mancukya
the hardware is getting more advance but the software is playing catch-up
vlc is my fav on all platforms, i use it on my pc and my mac
to get it on my winmo phone would be a blessing (i dont want to pay for something like coreplayer which doesnt support that many types of codecs)

So there is no one who can help the Videolan's Team to port VLC on Windows Mobile ?

There is a VLC media player for winmo for a while now, but it is very bad and not really working. whats your problem with coreplayer?!

it's just that my provider offer us a service, that permit us to show the TV via videolan and it's doesn't work with coreplayer....
