Hello,
I am wondering if someone can please tell me how I can make it so that playback continues when I task to a different app/program? Both for youtube app and internet explorer.
I like to listen to music through youtube. If I need to write a text or do any other task, I don't like how it stops the playback.
Same thing with stock internet browser. I like to stream live sports, stream music, etc. Is there anyway to have playback continue while using a differnt program, such as sms or Gmail?
Cheers,

I am having trouble mapping the t-zone key to do something other than take me to t-zone, for example I would like for it to open iexplorer. I tried using info from a threads I search with no luck. Also, I have me trying to view youtube and have used several apps from various threads such as Youtube player, kinomaplayer, 10live, and tmpcp player. Each time I either get file now support or a file error. I am using php registry and was able to change volume slider to use it to scroll. Phone is using WM6.

Strange, I have wm6 on one of my Dash/Excalibur and I'm watching YouTube Videos with my TCPMP player, KinomaFreePlayer{The Best} and the new RTSP video player. It works like a charm with YouTube. Now it's mighty strange that it will not work like a charm on your mobile device, by the way, the YOUTUBE player is for pocketPC devices ONLY, it tells you that in the thread.............!
I cant find a place where I can download rtsp player. The one I download is just a play.dmg.
I Will Help You!

How come I get error when trying to open a youtube video using KinomaFreePlayer, also does anyone have the full version of this player where I can view more videos then just ten of them.
i have an old copy of rockplayer which (now that i'm trying to use it) wants to be activeted for free playback - it can't activate so is useless.
anything else that can play avis? re-encoding isn't an option
I use arc media player.

I use vplayer, recommend it

using vplayer as of yest
arc media wouldnt open any files. even mp4s that the stock media player would. weird.
moboplayer its not in marketplace http://moboplayer.com/moboplayer_en.html
QQplayer is also worth a look, auto scans your SD, and only presents you with video files to play, also saves your position on multiple files, so resuming playback, even across multiple videos, is easy.
w w w.appbrain.com/app/qqplayer/com.tencent.research.drop
Rockplayer is the fastest player with the best neon optimizations support as far as I know but now I'm not so sure anymore since I've read about Moboplayer... I definitely gotta give it a try, thank you infamous6622 for the tip
i'm using vPlayer too - not had any issues with it so far
vplayer only found 2 of the 5 videos on my card. when i tried to get it to rescan, it crashed! Am currently trying meridian, seems ok at the moment.
Zimly is an awesome Player!!
Another vote for QQplayer, it also does not need any special permissions whereas if you care to look at Zimly it wants to
"read phone state and identity
Allows the application to access the phone features of the device. An application with this permission can determine the phone number and serial number of this phone, whether a call is active, the number that call is connected to and the like."
as well as
"change Wi-Fi state
Allows an application to connect to and disconnect from Wi-Fi access points, and to make changes to configured Wi-Fi networks."
Call me a cynic but without knowing any more details of the above there's no way I'd install Zimly.

Vote for vplayer. It's fast and plays

I read an article today at WMPoweruser.com from Surer about streaming music from Skydrive.
So I tried it out myself. Result: you can play music and videos from Skydrive and Dropbox.
WM7 opens the webbrowser for you to open the file. It is then downloaded to your phone. Next the Zuneplayer is started and it will play your music or video.
Snag: only audio and video files that can be played with the Zune player on your desktop computer can be opened with the Zuneplayer on your phone.
Solution: convert the files with Zune on your desktop computer, upload it and enjoy!
I tried it from my own Apache webserver in a dedicated folder but it failed because the settings aren't right. The file isn't downloaded, but this can be fixed easily. If it works I will have my own near limitless cloudservice.
Thanks for the heads up. I've been going through, looking for the differences, and the biggest changes I've noticed are in the animations.
Also Amazon music and Google music can be played in the same way.

My understanding is you have to have premium version to access HTML5 player - which makes sense, since they don't want people with mobile devices to be able to use their site, because that would remove a huge incentive for people to buy the premium version.

Two questions:
- Is the file accessible trough the Office Hub on your phone and
- Can you play the mp3 file with the Zuneplayer on your computer
Try also the option of streaming via Dropbox, Amazon or Google. I just tried it and it does work.
soundcloud.com works now, too.. and in the background while doing other things. then it fades on call, and fades back after the call.
well done so far
my page has music on it, too. it should work now, too (being a html5 player). but as it's offline for the time being (i'm moving to a new home, physically), i can't test
so does bandcamp
sometimes, it's nice to not be first. all the pages had time to prepare for iphone/ipad and co, and now just work on wp7. great great.
Check out the music player on lynziekent.com --it works great but i am wondering if there is a way to enable next/previous buttons (the ones with the volume control) to control the playlist inside the music player on the site.

I am on CM9 Beta 1 and when I try on any browser to download a music or video file (no matter what site) it only gives me the option to play the video or music clip in the stock video player or music player. I ran into this problem once before and just found and deleted the video player and music player but when I tried to do that this time I could not find the video or music player anywhere in the root explorer. I can't even be sure that deleting them will sove my problem. I've asked before but no one seems to understand what I mean. I hope i've made it completely clear what the problem is. My question is, can anyone help me figure out how to either disable the players or find a way around them to be able to download music and videos on my phone again? Thank you in advance
Sounds like you went to download some music or video in the past, and selected the "do this by default" option set on your browser, you may want to clear data on the browser, and whatever app it opens when you try to download. That should help.

I've tried that too. No matter what browser I use the same thing happens. and as for the video and music player. They're not even in the app list. it's like they're ghost apps! lol but seriously thank you for the suggestion though
I reinstalled everything and i'm able to download music and files again. Video is still only giving me the option to watch and not download. it wouldn't be an issue but i used to like downloading and then watching videos instead of having it buffering every 3 seconds.
When I play a song video in youtube and press the "Home" button, the song STOPS playing.
Why?
I want the song to continue playing in the background.
Any suggestions? Please reply.
Its always done that cause youtube isnt a regular music player. Your phone is literally ending the session with the youtube app. The best you can hope for is waiting for the screen to time out and just stick it in your pocket after that lol. But yeah only music players (as far as i know in this situation) will continue to play in the background for you.
U can find a version of youtube that works this way... google is ur friend

Try the app stickit! It will allow you to play a song video on youtube or other videos on your device in the background or foreground. It actually makes floating screen you can adjust the size of so you can "multitask". Occasionaly hiccups when playing a video... but not bad overall.
