One downside to the modified Streaming Media App - HTC Excalibur

I've noticed that now that I have my Dash loaded with the modified version of the HTC Streaming Media app, I am no unable to directly download .3gp files from tinytube.net on to my Dash. I've tried it using Opera Mobile and Pocket IE.
http://www.ramonshare.com/files/index.php?share=4&path=TOOLS/RvBCrS_HTC_Streaming_Media.cab
Anyone having a different experience with actually downloading (i.e. not streaming) the .3gp file?

It's Not A Modified Version
The version of the HTC Streaming Media Player you are using is by no means modified, its the real deal.......!

Well, the cab is modified to include the registry tweaks. But you're probably right from the app itself, technically speaking. It's just a modified cab file from the app installer.

Which Download Are Using
Wait a minute, which download are you using! If you are using the one that you have to import the keys, then you have the first one that jockyW2001 and I came out with last week! If you have that one, now its modified. You have to enter the keys manually, but it works like a charm too.

youtube mobile problem

When I click on a link in youtube mobile the streaming application is launched, it says connecting for a few seconds and then it says "failed to find network".
I run Black Shadow.
does anyone else have the same problem. Any suggestion is appreciated.
Check the other thread
I'm about to reply there
about to reply where?
I have a similar problem, i get the "failed to connect" error. Under options i've set it to connect via media net and the internet and still not working.
I know i could install realplayer but then it doesn't auto open, i have to save the file then open it.
the Custel Cingular apps cab is causing the problem. do a hard reset and it works fine. A simple uninstall doesn't work. It would be great if someone could step in and tell us how to modify the registry to have the file type associations change to use the streaming player. I like the cingular apps, but it's nice to actually stream the videos (Maxim Mobile too)
Having the same problem as well.. i've been digging around the registry, but I haven't figured it out yet....
Wow thats crazy. If you click the link on m.youtube.com you get the error, but if you type it into manually into streaming media it works fine!
I used the disable proxy in the proxy manager folder and then it worked fine.
That is using Custel 2.5. And MediaNet.

Could you go into detail where the proxy manager folder is located? Thanks!
its located in a folder under program files but that doesn't seem to fix the problem the main issue is the file association of 3gp to realplayer. i know in sktools you can edit these file associations i haven't tried it yet though.
when I click a link.. it says loading and and does nothing.. realplayer or nothing pops up at all....
should it be using realplayer or tcmp player? i'm gonna try to reset and see what happens..
soft reset, and nothing happened...
let me know what everyone thinks.
I am running the new Elf Rom. Youtube loads right into Streaming Video..not problem.

Using Custel 2.5, and it opens in something called "Streaming Media for Pocket PC" version 2.10h (build 314.713) it looks like it's a HTC application that replaced Windows Media Player.
And when I posted about the proxy disable, that fixed the problem for me, it had just kept looping back to the opening page in m.youtube until I disabled the proxy.
i think the issue is that some people don't run cingular video and are fine because the streaming video app pulls up like it should and plays the video. For some of us that have cingular video realplayer is set to default 3gp so it tries to open it but for some reason doesn't like to play it. In order to fix the problem for those that have cingular video we have to resolve the default app for 3gp video back to the streaming media program or use tcpmp as it can open 3gp video.
Streaming Media Cab {YouTube}
Does anybody have the Htc streaming media cab, not the one in the Touch. I need the one, that comes in most wm6 rom! YouTube a must have!
I am running black dymond 3.5 and have the problem described in the first post. I click the link in youtube -- watch video and it loads windows media player and then says connecting and then after sometime it says failed to find network and then back to the youtube page again.
I am not using cingular video nor do I have real player.
I am using wifi connection as I don;'t have unlimited data plan.

amen to that. i just installed tcpmp and changed file associations and its still not working or pointing to tcpmp. this is a must have for me also.
For Mobile YouTube Videos "RTSP Url" only
No, the TCPMP/player will not work this time, You need a player that will host rtsp, [example] rtsp://rtsp.youtube.com/youtube/videos/ect... You need a HTC streaming Media player that comes on most of the ppc wm6 ROM. That's why I looking for the cab file. Again it works like a charm on my MDA running Core 2.0, but I need the cab file for another device....!

HTC Streaming Media Player Cab Is What You Need

Try Core Player (coreplayer.com) or google for "TCMP", it's open-source predecessor. Plays my Pingu avis fine!
is it not possible to use a codec? i have been wondering this for a while, but never found one!

Dunno, but of all the players available, coreplayer is the only one that streams flawlessly to my bluetoooth devices using A2DP - it is certainly the smoothest and best player out there.
PocketMVP plays all AVIs and also DivX
still, i think there should be a codec! i hate having to add extra software. more programs = slower phone!!
nope
no codec,
just install tcpmp
good luck
How can you NOT want extra software?
Without using extra, non-standard programs you aren't using your device to its full potential.....
i don't understand why you say your device will slow down either; as long as its not in the startup directory the startup will be the same. And after you finish using the program just close it (not minimize) and the ram will be normal too.
A Windows mobile device is like a race car - its only good if you actually use it to reach high speeds (i.e. lots of progs and mod it up). If you are only going to go slowly in the car (not use the available features that make it what it is) theres no point in having it.
I hope that makes sense lol.
makes sense 2 me

Help putting films onto my Blackstone

I've recently tried uploading media files to my phone but they won't play. The first film I uploaded was an AVI file. This didn't play because I don't have a divx player on the phone. Does anyone know where I can download a player for my phone?
Second film I tried to upload was a dvdrip in Mpeg~1 format. This didn't play in the media player either.
Could anyone tell me the best way to get some films onto my phone?
To transfer the files I have just been dragging and dropping them into the storage card.
First of, I would recommend Coreplayer to play divx movies and what not. It's smart to get the blackstone video converter which was in the rom section I thought, use the search function
Sorry for spellingerrors, typing this in the bus on myblackstone which is a tad bumpy! Cheers.
There is a video converter in this forum which converts many types into ones which the video player from HTC (from the album) can play.
If you dont want to have to convert the films I would also reccomend using coreplayer. Its not free but it is worth paying for.
If you want a cheaper option you can download divx mobile player for free. It wont play the files as smoothly as coreplayer though.
Thanks for the advice. £20.00 is pretty steep. I don't think I would pay it. Are there any free versions of this software?
I remember converting media files for my Ipod once and gave up after 30 mins of converting a heroes episode hadnt finished the conversion. I'll give it another go on here though.
I'll try downloading the divx mobile.
Hey i'm absolutly new on this forum, just got my htc touch hd and i really like it. yes i was really frustated that it didn't play avi or mpg files, therefore i started downloading mp4 files when i came across this wonerful site, these files will play on your htc touch hd, the site is
http://www.vietfiles.org/phim-ma-downloads/40603-mu-high-quality-psp-movies-tv-shows-mp4-format.html
althought it's on megaupload which is annoying downloading one by one

It's up to you to decide whether £20 are too much. Anyway it does the job and does it quite nicely.
If not, you can try TCPMP - it's free, just google it up. I haven't tried it, though.
Do you need a membership to download films at vietfiles? i clicked on the film links and then there is no download icon on the next screen.
I've downloaded divx mobile. Extracted the files using WinRar and then dragged the two files, setupPocketPC and Divx Player onto my phone.
Neither of the two files will open on my phone. The setup one says its not a valid pocket pc application. The divx one says there is no application associated with the divx player it tells me to run the first file first then this one within it.
I then tried opening the file on my PC but it asked for Microsoft Active sync, however I can't upload active sync onto my computer because I'm running the dreaded Vista.
Help guys, anyone else faced this problem?

Vista is not to blame here. Active Sync is now called 'Windows Mobile Device Center'. Download it from Microsoft, install it in Vista, establish a partnership with the device, sync your device.
Then you can run the Divxsetup in Vista, it will call ActiveSync/MBDC and install the CAB file on your device.
I use the built-in HTC album player though. MPEG4-ASP compressed video in an MP4 container is the format that works best. Use the video converter frontend mentioned above.
Cheers

nah when you click on the link it gives you, that should open a new window then in that window it goes to vietfiles then 3 secs later it should automatically redirect you to the megaupload site and download from there
if that doesnt work
try highlighting the link then pasting in your browser

Play music and videos from cloudservices in Mango bld 7712

I read an article today at WMPoweruser.com from Surer about streaming music from Skydrive.
So I tried it out myself. Result: you can play music and videos from Skydrive and Dropbox.
WM7 opens the webbrowser for you to open the file. It is then downloaded to your phone. Next the Zuneplayer is started and it will play your music or video.
Snag: only audio and video files that can be played with the Zune player on your desktop computer can be opened with the Zuneplayer on your phone.
Solution: convert the files with Zune on your desktop computer, upload it and enjoy!
I tried it from my own Apache webserver in a dedicated folder but it failed because the settings aren't right. The file isn't downloaded, but this can be fixed easily. If it works I will have my own near limitless cloudservice.
Thanks for the heads up. I've been going through, looking for the differences, and the biggest changes I've noticed are in the animations.
Also Amazon music and Google music can be played in the same way.

My understanding is you have to have premium version to access HTML5 player - which makes sense, since they don't want people with mobile devices to be able to use their site, because that would remove a huge incentive for people to buy the premium version.

Two questions:
- Is the file accessible trough the Office Hub on your phone and
- Can you play the mp3 file with the Zuneplayer on your computer
Try also the option of streaming via Dropbox, Amazon or Google. I just tried it and it does work.
soundcloud.com works now, too.. and in the background while doing other things. then it fades on call, and fades back after the call.
well done so far
my page has music on it, too. it should work now, too (being a html5 player). but as it's offline for the time being (i'm moving to a new home, physically), i can't test
so does bandcamp
sometimes, it's nice to not be first. all the pages had time to prepare for iphone/ipad and co, and now just work on wp7. great great.
Check out the music player on lynziekent.com --it works great but i am wondering if there is a way to enable next/previous buttons (the ones with the volume control) to control the playlist inside the music player on the site.

App for Streaming Video

I have looked around, and can't find any information in threads that are not at least a year old. I use airplayit on my ipad to stream videos stored on my desktop to the tablet and it works fairly well. However, their android app crashes on my phone when I try to add a computer for it to stream from. I also tried an app called skifta from the play store, however it crashes when I open it. I am trying to find, Ideally, one program that will work for both my ipad and my phone, but if that is not possible, just a good one for my phone would suffice.
Any ideas?
I like BS player. It has a LAN mode that you can use to stream media. It so far Plays all of my .mkv files without stutters.
I use Plex media server

This seems to be exactly what I was looking for. 5 bucks is the most I've paid for an android app, but I just might have to do it.
I for one would love to see Google do for video files what they did for music (Google Play Music). Streaming videos via your pc to phone while on the same network is a nice feature but having it in the cloud would be a plus.
I use bs player as a player, but have set up an ftp server on my home pc and navigate to it through es file explorer.

Okay in the process of trying to find an app that could stream video files as well as music & document files I came across an app called ZumoCast. This app is specifically made to run on certain Motorola devices but doing some searches here on XDA I found a patched version, installed it on my phone and thus far it works flawlessly (well almost), no widget support & album art doesn't always show up.
I haven't tried it while I'm away from home so I can't really tell you how well things would stream outside the network but in house it works great.
Attached you will find the apk & here is the link to the windows install file (sorry iOS users no support for you guys at this time)
Enjoy

Thanks. I'll have to give this a try. I was getting weird errors with plex and it didn't want to play back most of my video files for some reason
I use ES file explorer to access all my files: system, network, ftp, and cloud. They all stream flawlessly and I just play them on DICE player. Love the new popup player.
