[Q] Live Buffer .MP3 - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've got my media collection at home hosted on an appache server. On a laptop, i can log in and live buffer an MP3 (it's not really streaming, it just plays at it downloads) from the apache server. When doing it on my android, it says the file type is not supported (same with a movie on a .avi). i've had no issues playing .MP3s stored on the SD card. Any ideas?

Windows Mobile Media Player - RTSP & MMS Experience Needed

Hey Guys,
I have a Windows Server Box, and setup the Windows Media Services.
To my laptops the Streaming Server is very cool.
However, to my WM6 Hermes phone, while I can get the stream to play, I cannot Fast Forward, or even skip to the next track? Plus, while the Windows Mobile Media Player plays WMA files (at High Quality) without a problem, it locks up when a MP3 file is streamed. And yet the phone has MP3 ringtones.
Also there doesn't seem to be a means of getting a playlist, to choose what I want to listen to from the server.
Does anyone have any experience with this, or can point me in the correct direction ?
Thank You,
Dave

sync with WMP 12

Hi! Can anyone tell me how to sync my MP3 files to my device without the media player converting it to WMA? There is only a option to turn the converting off, but i dont want that since i have 320Kbs mp3s on my computer, or even FLAC files and so on... I would love to sync my music files to my device @ 128 kbps MP3s. Is it possible?

Sync Media Player with WMP11

I'm getting quite frustrated at the process for syncing the HTC Desire with my Windows Media Player library
I can set it up first time, to sync some of my WMP playlists automatically, and it will copy all the music to the phone just fine.
However, on the phone, the playlists I chose to sync don't appear in the playlists tab on the music player.
I have to copy the playlist files to the SD card
This would be OK if its only the once. However, whenever I update the playlists on my computer (quite often), I have to delete the playlists from the phone, unplug for it to recognise, replug and reput the updated playlists on! It's driving me mad...
Is there anything I should be doing instead? eg my old Blackberry had 'Blackberry Music Sync' which did all this automatically for me. Any decent alternatives out there?
I'm guessing the problem is that the playlists from WMP will be in its own playlist format. I think the music player only supports .m3u . Maybe try using another application, songbird with the folder sync addon works quite well!

Way to sync subscription music to device?

Is there a way to sync subscription music files to the Evo?
I have music I have purchased on my laptop with Zune. I use windows media player to sync the other songs that I have burned from a cd to my laptop but it will not allow me to sync Zune files.
It gives a message that says it is not possible to sync subscription files to device
I would like to know too.

Without breaking the DRM in the files. no.
there are ways to get around this but they break DRM and i am not sure i can really go into it much on this forum. i would try to Google protected music converter as a start.
alternatively you could move away from zune and use one of the subscription based models that has an android app (something like Rdio) -- that's the route I went and couldn't be happier.
I had to convert the wma file to an mp3 file.

Local Host - HTTP Server for browser streaming to the Android TV

Our family videos are stored on the PC, on the same network as the TV. To view them on the TV, I would like to use menus written in html. But Google has stopped access to local html content, unless using the HTTP protocol. So I decided to install HTTP Servers on the PC's Windows 10 partition and on its Linux partition. Also installed the SimpleHttpServer apk on the TV, to use html menus to stream from YouTube. Hopefull of interest to somebody: https://tinyurl.com/jrfn9fsu and
