oh, i know that coreplayer works on hermes and that coreplayer supports h264, but my question was: is the hermes with 400MHz able to decode this. and i mean for example a mp4 file, h.264 video and aac audio 128, 30fps, >348kbit/s
Hi, does anybody know how to open an H264-STREAM in Coreplayer Mobile or other application?
if you play with the settings h.264 files (in 320x240 res only) will play fine on my HTC Touch (400mz processor)
I played around with x264 transcoding a while back on my Hermes. It didn't play smoothly for me and I dropped the bitrate to <200kbps. Using the Coreplayer benchmark it came out at around 100% but this didn't provide fully smooth playback.
This was a while ago and the newest Coreplayer maybe more efficient, I will do some more testing and see if things have improved. (my settings were video 200kbps, Audio 24Khz 64kbps 320x240)
After some more testing I can confirm that it doesn't play smoothly on the Hermes. If you are watching material with few scene changes you can get away with it but as soon as any amount of movement is involved then you notice slow downs here and there.
I did a test on a scene with a car chase in it and after benchmarking it I got 98%. This was x264 200kbps, AAC 24Hz 64 kbps. For comparison using exactly the same setting for an Xvid file I got 458%.
Ultimately, what is the best video player for the HTC HD now?
Problem as the phone was out that the core player play good films, but does not support all audio codecs (it is a film without sound) and does not support subtitles.
Free version of TCPMP do play all movies whit sound and subtitles, but movies go very slowly rather than smooth.
So my question is, since my information is from 4-5 months before, are there any new development on the subject. Is there a player who goes smoothly converted video and subtitles supported?
If there is such a miracle, I'll be happy to drop a link?
What is the latest version of core player and are solved the problems there?
Latest version was 1.3 I reckon. They plan on introducing AC3 audio codec support which is the most widely used audio codec for ripped movies etc in a 1.5.x version.
But yeah, Coreplayer is at the moment still the most top notch player imo.
This is a list of the supported audio and video codecs:
Audio : MP3, MP2, AAC, MKA, WMA, Midi*, WAV, OGG, Speex, WAVPACK, TTA, FLAC, MPC, AMR, ADPCM, ALaw, MuLaw, G.729, GSM
Video: H.264 (AVC), AVCHD, MKV, MPEG-1, MPEG-4 part 2 (ASP), DivX, XviD, WMV*, Theora*, Dirac*, MJPEG, MSVIDEO1
Another Coreplayer user here!
Works great for me.

It all depends how you encode the video files... I can play a whole movie without any lag.
yes, but I want to play unconverted video..
The main reason why I use coreplayer is because it can play unconverted video, I have too much video to even be coverted and it's generally just too much of a hassle to me. You can't watch a 4.7 gig dvd unconverted if that's what you mean but dvd ripped avi filea from like 700 mb play without any lag at all using coreplayer.
Anyone know what is the best setting for smooth video playback when viewing in Touch Pro 2?
I have download the Transformers 2 Trailer in FLV format and playback on my Touch Pro 2 but it seems to be laggy.
Anyone can advise me whether it is the video format problem or the phone memory problem as I have installed many applications.

Can only get on youtube through my Rhodium at work but isn't that video HD?
It's got a pretty fast processor for a phone but it's still only 533MHz, it can't playback HD content!
I've seen a couple of DivX movies (700MB each) on my TP2 and I have no lag issues...
In fact, I did had that, but back then I was using the player supplied with DivX codecs for Windows Mobile. Once I started using Core Player, the "lag" was gone.
I'll try that YouTube HD video in FLV format and get back to you.
BTW, what player are you using?
Yea i have no issues at all with any video format with coreplayer with the exception of mkvs.

I am also using Core Player for playing back the above FLV format file.
Sorry for the delay guys, but during my video speed testing , I found that although Core Player is supposed to play MP4 files (so they say), on my TP2 Core Player says "Player: Video codec (AVC aka H.264) not supported by the player!". So it seems that I have no H.264 codecs installed, which is strange because the H.264 codec is quite common on DivX. Well, I guess the movies I've been playing were not H.264 encoded.
This happened because I downloaded (without converting) both Transformers 2 trailers (LowRes and HD) from that link. The LowRes version came in FLV format (4MB), and the HD is a 33MB MP4 file. The FLV plays flawlessly without hiccups or delays.
I'm still searching for H.264 codecs for Windows Mobile, and will report back to this topic after installing and testing the video.
The HTC player will playback mp4's encoded with H.264, so long as they're Standard Definition with stereo audio.

I have download the same file again by copying the Videoplayback file in FLV Format from Internet Explorer Temporary Files Folder, file size is 12.2MB instead of 4MB.
How you can get 4MB and how you download the Low Res file? The playback is a bit jerky and not so smooth but after comparing the original one in YouTube, it is also a bit jerky and not smooth so there is nothing wrong with the Touch Pro 2 Playback as the problem lies on the source itself.
What you wanna do is get Coreplayer.
Encode your videos into Divx with vertical res. of 720 or under and keep the bitrate under 1500kb/s.
Great image quality with approx 112% playback speed.

I have used Coreplayer for playback.
Tried encoding "The Black Knight" Movie in the below format :
1) Width x Height (704 x 296)
2) Bit Rate (64kbs)
3) Audio Format (Lame MP3)
4) Frame Rate (23 frames/second)
5) Data Rate (1031 kbs)
6) video Sample Size (24 bit)
7) Video Compression (XVID)
There is some portion of the playback jerky and not smooth, any problem with the above settings?

You could try downloading that little encoding program.
It encodes your files into the perfect format for HTC Album. The user interface of the program is very easy and it encodes your files so that they play with full resolution and a good bitrate. Hope I could have been of help. All credit goes to it's creator.

I used a Firefox addon that "strips" the contents out of the pages (videos, sounds, SWF, ...). It can also be used to convert to other video formats while downloading, but I didn't use this feature as I wanted to test with the real deal.
I double-checked just now, and the smaller file (LowRes) is 4.76MB and it's fully functional and it plays 'till the end. The HD is 33,9MB. Perhaps there's a different file version when you stream directly from the internet... it doesn't make much sense, but I'm just guessing.
I didn't had time to continue searching for the right codecs yet. But I'll give it a go tomorrow. I'm sure I was not the 1st to experience this "issue" and the codecs "should" exist somewhere... so I hope.

Thanks for your recommendation and I recode the video again, it is much smoother playing over the WMP.
Will use this program to encode future DVD or Video for playback in my Touch Pro 2.
converted some films to MP4 and on core player they are very stuttery
res 720 x 480
what are the best set up settings people are using for core player
thanks in advance
i play movies with CorePlayer without converting them.
I just copy paste my 700Mb AVI/DivX (1h30 min) movie onto my memory card, and it plays perfectly : smooth playback, and clear picture.
So need to convert anything.
I use the basic settings from Coreplayer... Works out of the box !
Even with my old Kaiser, it was playing well after some tweaking.
+1 same here...no conversion needed. I play a 1 1/2 hours avi movie with coreplayer with the default setting directly from my microSD 16GB with no problem. Smooth running too. Btw, this is my first time watch a full movie on my TP2, usually i only watch a small clip/trailer movie.
Very impression performance too.
Hunt down the pocketnow.com TP2 review. In one of their videos in the review, they do some benchmarking and come up with their ideal resolution and bitrate. It may not be final for you, but it's bound to be useful info.
use built in player for mp4 format! it uses the hardware effectively! i dont think coreplayer can utilize the hardware optimally nevertheless it is a good video player for many formats.
Greets - I am looking for a decent MP3 and Video player in 1 app. Currently I am using Meridian, but the authors refusal to fix the bug where if you update ID3 or Album art, it not only refuses to note the changes, but then starts showing different MP3's album covers.
I have no requirements other than it needs to play Video and MP3's and NOT suffer from this bug.
Any thoughts?
I used double twist all the time.
Any other suggestions
Thanks but the VERY FIRST review on the list says it suffers from the same problem I am trying to escape. Meridian would be VERY GOOD if the author bothered to fix the same bug.
Any other suggestions are appreciated.
DoubleTwist!!!! You need no other.
Well, that and Slacker radio for internet tunes. Now f only I could use my Zune Pass on the Android...

Well then try Mix Zing, it's in the marketplace. I would compare it to core player on WinMo... Have to pay to properly edit ID3 tags but it has some great features if you do.
I have not used it for video and don't even know if it is able.... but the basic player on the HTC is fine for videos that I play.
If doubletwist could read the internal storage,I'd use it. I have 6gbs of tunes and it finds the 2 i have on my sd card...lame
I use cubed because it has a cool interface and a variety of widgets. The real name in the market is ³.

For some reason Double twist doesnt read all of my music. it maybe reads 2 out of 14gb
Ugh
Doubletwist seems like a really bad idea, but it seems the answer to my question is THERE IS NONE. Let's home some developer can step up, make a player that can process updated ID3 and Album art, without getting all confused.
If anyone has any ideas, I would love to hear them
Use Rock Divx Player - best one around for snapdragon devices...

If you like iTunes then getting an Nano would be a good option since you don't seem too worried about extra features like a radio etc. If you can get the education discount then it will drop down to ~$320 which is great value.

I use doubletwist and all my songs have correct ID3 tags and album art.
I use separate programs to grab all the album art and ID3 tags.. but doubletwist doesn't scramble them or mix them up.

Since this topic was started almost 18 months ago, I'm assuming the issue has been fixed in the apps by now.
