I can't help you with the Itunes Sync part since I don't use Itunes and never will; however, as for media players these are what I have installed and use pretty regularly
WM Media player
HTC audio manager
S2P really great but no playlist support unfortunately
TCPMP for video's and audio and I use this for internet radio- really great
MortPlayer - aslo really great and skinable with some really nice finger friendly skins available for download.
All of these are freeware and work perfectly on my HTC touch Elf. Unsure if any can sync with Itunes though or even how to sync with Itunes, but all worth checking out in my opinion

Again, cant help with the iTunes part but PocketPlayer is a great one. works great on my dash and looks nice too

Pocket player and pocket tunes are very good.

PocketPlayer defo the best music player, not sure but think you could use MediaMonkey to sync.

Thanks everyone, I really appreciate you suggestions, I'm trying Pocket Player now,

COREPLAYER is the best one for me.
I used pocket player and tcpmp somtimes, But i almost exclusively use COREPLAYER . I know it's not free, but one of the best players out there.

pocket tunes can sync with itunes

Wow, Pocket Tunes,looks hot and iTunes support ooof, I like, I like, I'm so vested in iTunes and kind off like it, my iTouch, etc etc.

Quick Question when i go to a site like streams4pda.com on my phone to try and stream something it opends up windows media player and gives me an error mssg what do i do

anyone? different media player?

For Mpeg Vids
I use "Pocket TV"..The best for me, No lag time or lip sync problems like I find with all the rest.

iTunes for WM6

Hello People,
Any one know if there is an iTunes for WM yet if so WHERE
Nope. I don't think that will happen, ever.
There are other WM based audio managers, though. And there are a lot of PC based media center servers with a web interface, you can use them remotely from WM.
You might be interested in doubleTwist.
It claims to sync even your purchased songs to a lot of devices.
doubletwist
Interesting... Apple just had another update to itunes. anyone having some problems with doubletwist?
Mediamonkey is a great tool with a lot of features. one of the best: it's free (there's also a gold version which isn't free).
it will also recognize your WM-Based phone and you can easily sync songs.
If you're searching for an "iTunes" look-alike player on WM, search the forum for "Mortplayer" (with iMort skin), "S2P", "Melody" or "Lumen"
Cheers
Lumen is still alpha and doesn't play any music yet.
Hello people!
Are there any news on iTunes for WM-based PPC?
Missing the point...
I believe some of the repliers above are missing the point of the question. The real point behind this question is not whether there is a music organizer/sync app but if there is an app for downloading music straight to your phone just like iTunes does. Obviously since the user uses iTunes on his or her computer an iTunes app would be a great solution but ANY program that you could purchase and download music from would be absolutely great. In my opinion that is the one and only thing that still makes me want an iPhone even with all the love I have for my TP2.
So, if anyone knows of a decent app for purchasing and downloading music for a WM phone(similar to iTunes) that would be a great thing to suggest here.

Can someone suggest a internet music/radio app

All in the title really I want to have an app I can use to listen to internet radio or stream music something similar to pandora or last fm what is the best app and how reliable are they?
also I have a readynas duo is there an app i can install that could access the music on there over the internet? (also the video as well would be nice)
many thanks in advance.
chris,
Hi,
I tried Resco Player and GSPlayer but the best is Pocket player 4x as it can play almost any streaming media type.

Hi thanks for the reply, this software looks really good actually, do you know I see it says it supports UPNP i beleive my readynas is upnp ready and my ps3 and xbox both pick up its media server as a upnp one do you think this means I will be able to stream content from my server? I would guess definately over wifi but what do you think about the internet, lol sorry if you have no idea, I see it also supports internet radio as wekk which is nice. I would really like a standalone application that gives random music based on what you like I tried pocked scrobbler but the transfer speed want that good only got around 2-40k.
Also I already have core player for movies but is it any good for streaming music?
many thanks again.
I've tried many players like TCPMP, core player, pocket radio, gsplayer ...
And the best I've found so far is kinoma : http://kinoma.com
This player also supports shoutcast streaming, included aac+ streams (better sound and less data
Try it and let me know if you like it.
If you like last.fm Pocket Scrobbler is a nice free client.

Any FREE media players for Dash?

As we all know Windows Media Player is a memory hog. Trying to send a text while listening to a song seems to take hours. Can anybody please tell me if there is a free media app thats better than Windows? I dont care much about video just something thats not so heavy on the phone that plays MP3 and WMA.
I did do a search and all I saw was people recomending PocketPlayer, but that costs money. I did find DivX.cab (comes with set-up files too), Im about to try it out but i really dont like installing extra software on my PC just for a media player on my phone. THanks for any help folks!
EDIT: DivX is only video, but it looks really nice for those of you who like to watch vids on their phone.

you can pm me
Try nitrogen 0.3.1 by microfi. not sure if it supports wma yet but he is working on more and more all the time. can make ur own skins aswell.
cool! ill check it out and wma is no biggie since i can always convert, I just use wma since the files are typically smaller.
tcmp is a good one
For M-peg files / PocketTV is the best! No lag and perfect lip sync with no skipping.
Thanks everybody for the help.
isnt pocket player the same as core player?

No PocketPlayer is the best Audio Player about with far more feature than CorePlayer with regards Audio.
The same in reverse CorePlayer is primaraly for Video and very good @ it.
So pair the 2 together and you have Multimedia covered.
ahh rather stick with the classic tcpmp, it ca do both..tried coreplayer..album art doesnt display it as big as tcpmp can

Yes it can do both, TCPMP is just the early release of CorePlayer, to which is why CorePlayer is far more advanced in it's playing capabilities, wouldn't use CorPlayer to play audio or TCPMP as they where mainly designed for Video, where as PocketPlayer has alot of features and is pristine when playing audio.

yeah! pocket player is my main music player, not only for local content in my phone, but also has the web guide that you can search web streams by category or genre , does podcast, you can bookmark streams, you can even use your regular bluetooth headset to listen to music, although I wouldn't recomend it, unless you have a stereo bluetooth headset. It even has an equalizer you can adjust to your liking.

Good media players?

Is there any good media players out there that can replace wmp or touchflo media player? Mostly looking for a player to play my music files.
Good Music Player..
Hello my friend,
You can try Nitrogen Player, it's only for music but it does the job well, here's the link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=455750
Search and u will find many
The one that i use is core player
Pocke music is also good
thanks for your share.
pocket tunes is quite good if you want sync with iTunes
I think Kinoma Play is by far the best media player for Windows Mobile: http://kinoma.com/play/
It's fast, fluid, powerful and easy to use.
Anyone have problems with the new version of Kinoma? Whenever I try to download/update apps ("Get Apps"), it always hangs (Duttys 3.1 and 3.6), regardless of GPRS, EDGE or HSDPA. Works fine over WiFi tho!?
On stock ROM 1.56 and after hardreset, I had some serious problems with Pocket Music - when it reached the end of a track and should have skipped to the next one, it would freeze instead and screw up the sound for the whole device. So I looked for alternative, tried Kinoma but the trial wouldn't let me play with the bass/treble settings, which I need. So I ended up with MortPlayer, which seems very nice to me so far, it has an equalizer and a bass boost effect, and it's free.
I've got no problems with Kinoma on Dutty's 3.6 using 3G/EDGE.

looking for mp3 player

Hey guys,
Im looking for a good mp3 player, I have Nitrogen but I don't like how it doesnt organise my songs by artist or album or by title. I have all my different albums in different folders and if I wanna hear one song from one album and then another from a different album I have to go back and forth between folders... unless Im missing something with the Nitrogen player.
Also was just wondering if there are similar mp3 players that have something similar to iphones coverflo feature, just think that is a cool feature.
Any suggestions would be awesome.
Thanks
u should google for WinamPAQ
hmm looked at the winamp.but it didnt look finger friendly, is there anything else?
i spent a while looking for a good finger friendly mp3 player for my x1, the clear winner for me was "pocket player" by conduits.
thanks widebhoy, i did some more research and came across that one too, im gonna try it out.
thanks again
Yeah, Pocket Player is definitely the best music player for WM. I love it!
htc audio manager.
* finger friendly
* automatically organizes audio library (by album/artist/whatever)
* fast UI, low battery consumption
Hello
Try MortPlayer, supports MP2, MP3, Ogg Vorbis and WAV, ID3- (V1.0-V2.3) and Ogg-Tag-Information, WinAmp- and MediaPlayer-Playlists (M3U, PLS, ASX, read only), A2DP / AVRCP, Configurable Fonts for Playlists... and much much more.
And for Fingerfriendly using you can download one of the many Skins or create your own Skin.
Pocket Player is good but I think MortPlayer offers more capabilities and is more powerful.
Bye

Have you tried S2P?
I like PocketPlayer... But it does not seem to work smooth on windows mobile 6.5(new UI)... Any solutions?

In the Conduits forums there is a thread concerning this problem. An admin claims beeing able to provide an early beta of version 4.2 which should fix the issue. He (or she) says if someone is interested one should contact him (or her) by email. The email adress is mentioned in the thread. Maybe it is worth a try?
does anybody have a free version of this pocketplayer?
in their web it only last for 30 days, and then we have to pay

That is because it's not freeware. But it is definitely worth the monney.
i think naitrogen is best
using mortplayer since i`ve got my x1. i tried all the others,but mortplayer allways finds the way back to my device... for those like me who have thousands of tracks on the card, mortplayer will give you the effectivist playlist
If you're still interested I'd recommend either S2P or iMulator. S2P has more function and design, but iMulator is faster.
You also have Nitrogen v 1.1, although it's a bit outdated.
nitrogen
www.nitrogen.wmskins.com
If you'd ask me I'd vote for mort player =)
i think S2P is best - it integrates well with S2U2, and new pay version is AWESOME, but 0.83 is still quite good and if u want to make it fingerfriendlier- all u have to do is get a different skin ( some got bigger buttons ), only downside its not as smooth as WMplayer but got nicer autoplaylist capabilities - its only one i found that lets me play all my music from Storage Card WITHOUT small game files , ringtones etc, because u can NOMINATE your MUSIC folder- that feature alone worth its weight in gold IMO
i basically have 5 MP3 players on my SEX1 - WMP, Nitrogen, S2P, plus 2 panels - OnTheRoad and MediaXP , and think that for pure feature plus stability value- nothing beats S2U2 + S2P in that combo u get - FullScreen CallerID, LockScreen, NotificationReminders, Messages Previews, AND Very Good INTEGRATED FullScreen Album Pic + Nominated Music Folder MP3/M4A/WAV/+music player plus whole lot of other things i'm prrobably forgetting , so if u r NOT using manilla ( which have most of these inbuild) i personally find thta manilla doesnt run too well on stock xperia, i think S2U2 + S2P is a must , as a matter of fact : its on my reinstall list right after SPB Software every time i hardreset , anyway- these things are different for everyone , because it all depends on what kind of rom and soft u running and what are your requirements, e.g- both mortplaer and pocketmusic bundle kept crashing on my X1, but S2P and Nitrogen - work well
hope this helps, mate
