I think htc touch hd will be superb if that can play any sort of video from any sort of site and till date i am being able to use
quicktime, flash, wmv, and so on but i am not being able to use ovguide videos...
skyfire has done real good job for flash and quicktime plugin video (dailymotion.com) but i am waiting for stable version of skyfire for wvga where we already got alpha version..
hello one and all

Hope someone can offer me some advice. Video playback is very high on my priorities. I currently have an Omnia which is pretty flawless playing back DIVX or XVID encoded files. I am not interested in playing back High Def content, only xvid/divx avi files that I download such as TV and DVD Rips.
How good is the Touch Pro 2 with Coreplayer, I am pretty worried from all that I read about HTC/Qualcomm drivers not working properly and this is a deal breaker for me. I don't know if the Touch Pro 2 is the same, I know it has the same processor.
I have been out of contract for a couple of months and was waiting to get an Iphone but I will have to encode all my xvid files in order for them to play, at least until Coreplayer for Iphone is released. I was happy with my Omnia but I seem to have endless problems with getting programs working as they should and of course there is no official support on this site.
If video playback is ok for these type of files I may go for either the Diamond 2/Touch Pro 2 or Touch HD as they all seem to be a similiar spec.

These play flawlessly on my antiquated Vogue as long as they are encoded properly, so I think there's no reason to suspect they will play any worse on the TP2. Perhaps the additional resolution, I suppose. But my experience has been that video on HTC is good stuff.
I read a review that it plays Xvid without any drop frames but can't play Dvix properly.
If you don't mind re-encoding your downloaded videos using the Video GUI, then you won't have any problems. I use it for my HD and it plays very very well at 624x352 resolution.
All you need to do is let it run over night and download it to your phone in the morning. Easy huh?
Anyone got a working one??
Did you try these:
Youtube Player (freeware): play some kind of FLV videos, but not everyone. It's depends of the codification!
TCPMP: for this app there's an plugin to execute this kind of videos.
if you want, i can send this files to your e-mail! Or u can use Google!
that'd be ace. I have TCPMP and youtubeplayer, TCMP won't play it though and youtubeplayer plays it but really laggily lol. ill try the addon
re
hello,
i use coreplayer for this,but unfortunately no support for codec On2 VP6
installed the addon but nothings changed TCPMP can't play it lol
A custom version of TCMP called TCMP Project 5500 plays On2 VP6 coded videos. It supports Touch HD, too, although there are some minor interface glitches.
downloaded that and it works but how come some flv videos and other file types are really laggy when they play - it's really annoying, any explanations?
I just reduced the reproducing speed, (less than 100%) , using GDI, it works...
Yeah I have been reading it. So many people seem to have this problem. Most people are on their 4th replacement and still no luck.
I also have a faint flicker when loading market it's not that noticeable. Not sure if it will get worst like others have experienced.
What are you going to do El? Are you going to send it back

8GB micro SD cards are very cheap in Hong Kong - so I don't bother coverting files to mp4 or whatever that's compatible with HD. Instead, I just copy the whole seasons of TV series into HD and use it as PMP (my Archos 605 just died)
Getting Divx Mobile was easy enough (just have to register & download). But I noticed that it takes a while (lag) to skip. Also, when in full screen, it was grainy (pixexls) - not sure this is due to poor quality of original file (downloaded bt)...
Any other suggestions? I don't mind paying - but want the best video quality possible.
p.s. don't worry about battery life either: US$20 for a spare battery and I'm never far from a outlet (HK is just so tiny)
try coreplayer..
Try Coreplayer. its the best video player ive found so far. much faster then divxplayer
coreplayer is best. And htc's graphics are excellent

Like all the above posts....Coreplayer, the only app you need to view those common video formats.
I have found coreplayer to be very laggy myself....Media Player plays my HD files with no issues at all......I never could understand all the fuss
Coreplayer does not support grafic accelerator of HD. Native video player is better with suitable video properties.

I agree...!!!
actually I am a bit confused (very confused I think...)
I downloaded that Encoder - but it seemed like a tool for converting the formats (not a software installed on HTC to play movies) Correct me if I am wrong. So how does that help in anyway?? I am using core now (found a cab version with flash support - so it seemed convenient so far)
I'd like to try Encoder - I have seen many knowledgeable ppl talking about it so I must be missing something here... Why does converting help?? What does "native player is better" mean?? And how does Encoder make use of HTC hardware accelerators if it isnt even installed on HTC????
pls help...

Latest HTC devices have good video capabilities but 3rd party video players do not support this hardware (yet).
Album or Windows Media Player are meaned by native video player. But they have also some limitations naturally. You should have compatible frame rate and bitrate to get maximum performance.
So, the best way to see good video on Touch HD is to convert any video file with proper settings and watch it by album or Windows Media Player.
now i get it... tried it last night on SD setting. My 350MB file converted into 200MB file and played beautifully on Album.
thx guys for helping me see the light
Hi;
I was searching a good video player for my hd, and it seems that there is no such player because of the accelerator issue. There was some rumours that coreplayer will release a special edition for hd, but there is nothing about it on official web page. So, I was wondering, do you all convert your videos and wait about 30 minutes to watch it on hd in reasonable quality or is there a good player? By the way a need a video player that supports subtitle.
Thanks a lot and sorry for possible mistakes in my english.
Hello mate,
When it comes to videoplayers on PPC i think Coreplayer is be the best choice. You dont even have to encode your video to another codec/format. Coreplayer plays my dvdrip's (Xvid) movies perfect and smooth on Touch HD.
If you want subtitles on your video you should use Mp4ForHD and encode the movie with srt-subtitles. It works very well with the integrated videoplayer which supports mp4.
Try these settings if you want to encode you video:
608x256
~1100 Kbit/s (bitrate)
Audio: mp3/mpga/Acc
Madswk
wmp because it has has hardware support
coreplayer because it can take everything out of the box

Maybe it's just me but the playback in coreplayer skips frames sometimes and isn't really as smooth as i'd want it to be. At least that's the case with xvid videos. Any idea how I could get it to run smoother? Currently running Dutty's 3.9XT Turbo.
CorePlayer is damn good nowadays, their new 1.3.6 is really wonderful for movies now, everything runs so smooth and I rarerly see any skips.
damned, another new version already
1.36 coreplayer
I have to agree, coreplayer plays even 700MB Avi files without conversion or anything else. just play from SD Card

Does 1.36 work on the HD. On mobihands it says it's incompatible?

Why shouldn't it work? Have worked on both VGA and WVGA for me so I don't see a problem with the HD. Download the trial and try it.

As I said, mobihands says it is incompatible with the HD. Downloaded it and it won't install . Not sure why it won't work on HD?

That's really strange, the software is all same as Topaz except bigger screen and that shouldn't affect. Are you on a custom ROM or something? Possibly WM6.5?

Yes, I'm on the latest wm6.5 manila 2.5.1. Coreplayer 1.32 works fine though.
I have HTC HD and it works with CorePlayer 1.3.6
will have to try this out!

What rom are you running?
I've tried the cab version as well as pc .exe version and neither install. The cab just says unable to install and running the .exe comes up with an error saying that the device attached is not supported? How did you get yours installed?
I have it installed on my HD.Version 1.3.6 Build 7427 and it works excellently!
I have my shipped rom and radio.
so everything runs smooth now with CorePlayer 1.36? because i'm still running 1.3 and it even skips frames on 170 MB xvid clips. Must say it's quite annoying to be forced to encode everything to *.mp4 only to watch a smooth clip/film.

I dont think it is because of 1.3.6. It is more on what kind of video you want to play
can anyone give a link for the latest version. im running WM 6.5.

Yes, so I realize. I'm referring to xvid video. The filesize doesn't really make any difference, it will still skip frames every few seconds.
Now I'm not sure if it's the phone that can't handle the xvid files or if it's coreplayer. Some mentioned that the videos are alot smoother in v1.3.6, and i simply wanted to know if that is the case.
i just bought new touch pro 2 to replace my old i900 and i very worry with video player. i use core player to play video on my old i900 very good but the same video player and video clip on touch pro 2 is very laggly.
i hear that the video convert tool can fix this probleam so that it not use everytime because converting video take along time.
who did try exporting i900 or i8000 video drive and put it in to touch pro 2 to improve video quality?
sorry if everybody can't understand my thinking because my english is very bad.
If you can't play your video's decent, then it's a rom problem. You can also search to see if the settings that you use for coreplayer are correct.
Try to disable manila and then play the video,
manila takes lots of ram and CPU
i understand what you mean, yes some video in specific container format and resolution do choppy when played using coreplayer. until now the solution still using converter and then play using windows media player.
to port video drive to be used in tp2 is possible, but i don't know how. yet, there's no guarantee that even when using that program (video drive) the video playing will not be choppy... will never knew for sure until someone try
