Rather than bump a thread in a legacy device I figured Id ask here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/newreply.php?do=newreply&noquote=1&p=1034574
I cant get pocketplayer to play ipod .mp4's, the conduit forum does not appear to work
As a long years (and still) pocketplayer user I can tell you that PP will only rely on the registered codecs that are suported with WMPlayer as well. I guess that WMPlyer will also not play these.
Contrary to that Coreplayer will play almost everything and the codec support of the predecessor TCPMP is also ok for video.
Thanks tobbie, Im trying to find an alternative to coreplayer because I can not get avrcp to work on coreplayer
I use Pocketplayer for Music and (rarely) Coreplayer for Videos. AVRCP should work for both via activating the relevant WMP plugins in the players. Depending on the device it is usually the "Key Mapping" plugin.

I have downloaded TCPMP and I can only watch some files, the software tells me windows media audio and video are not supported. I am guessing I have to download some codecs but I am unable to find any. Is this true and if so does anyone know where to find these codecs and how to install (I am assuming install is easy)
codec

Wich player can play MPEG2 from stream?
Want to watch my streams from the dreambox (wifi), coreplayer cant play this.
interesting subject....
coreplayer & kinoma don't have mpeg-2 codec
vlc player is so old and brakes strongly
tcpmp don't play stream also...
Pocket Player can play from stream. It is primarily an audio player but does a few simple video formats and codecs, even youtube flv. It probably does mpeg2.

PictPocket Cinema too.
Anybody?
great question...anyone found anything yet?
You may try this: http://pockettv.com/
I haven't and don't know whether it works but they claim to support mpeg2.
I couldn't find how to play directly streaming media in FAQ !
Please report results if you try it !
Hello
is there any solution to play mpeg2 stream on HD ?
with coreplayer you can hear sound onl
Older version of TCPMP can play MPEG2
Yes, but it can take MPEG-2 streams.
It's old and does't support WM 6.5. Anyone pwiseeeee?
Even if it does the speed of the wifi is slow and you will have to wait to cache it... So copy paste it and play it from storage... or convert it to mp4 first.

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.

Well I tried it from your link. Mighty impressed, specially with the orb link. Gyro works great too on my HD.
any body knows of a link or any cabs for working tcpmp version I tried a few some did work but there not able to stream like youtube videos or thing like that any body out there that can help I have em6.1 and skunworks cab if that helps
There is a built-in YouTube client in the TP2. For any other streaming media, use the built-in Streaming Media Player.
You can use TCPMP for non-streaming video - this version works quite well: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3275845&postcount=172 (You need to go into the DirectDraw settings and tick the box to use blitting instead of overlays).
But you may well be better off, with non-streamed videos, if you download them and convert them into a format that HTCAlbum can play. (You can use this app to do the conversion: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467112 ).
If you really need to be able to handle streaming videos and everything else in the same application, and you don't mind things getting jerky with high resolutions and bit-rates, then your best option is to purchase Coreplayer.
Hello guys,
Just a survey on which version of TCPMP you guys use for your device. Was trying different different versions and builts to see which one runs best. For starters, I used "TCPMP-0.72RC1-ARM-PPC-SUBTITLES-iriki-repack01.cab" which ran really smooth with SRT subs on a couple of roms (6.1 as well as 6.5) that I've tried. The downside is that I couldn't get it to play flv, and its not accepting the flv plugins I've put in.
Next, I tried the TCPMP 2009 Phenom Edition. Its plays avi with srt subs as well but its not as fast as iriki's repack, even when I use GDI. Frames were skipped and the audio doesn't seem to go along with the video. Again, it didn't play the flv videos I've downloaded from youtube.
I know this doesn't answer your question - but why on earth more people don't simply use Media Player I'll never know - I have used mp4's and the like with Media Player and they have played VERY well. Used TCMP before and not been impressed.

I was going to London over the weekend, and had just downloaded a couple of programmes that I watch on a weekly basis. I download AVI files, and normally bung them on a USB stick and watch them via my PS3. In this case, I simply copied them to the memory card in my HD and watched them on the train. Basically, it meant that I didn't have to convert the files in order to watch them with WM Player.
It plays more formats than WM Player, and is more configurable. It's not a knock to WM Player. It just does more.
Also, in fairness, TCPMP doesn't play WMV files well at all. You get about 1 frame every 3 seconds. I obviously use WM Player for them.
@Abubakar
I've not tried playing FLV files with TCPMP, but for youtube stuff I want to keep, I use www.keepvid.com, and download MP4s. I use v0.61 and don't have any issues with it at all - works a treat.
