[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sensboston:
You misunderstood me completely :)

First (fortunately) WP7 is not limited to 3G connection only: there are WiFi and Ethernet (via USB).

Second, I already stream movies like "cloud music" :D Technically it works like: I have a "streaming server" (small WPF C# program, running on my home media server/player PC), and WP7 app, streaming video client (with ability to download and store media). PC program preforms a real-time "transparent" (on the fly) transcoding of medias, and "stream" (not a real stream of course) transcoded data to the WP7 player.

I don't have an unlimited data plan so my usual "scenarios" are:

- if I do have a WiFi access (most hotels/places etc.) I can easy browse media folders on my home PC and watch any movie;

- if I'm going somewhere without WiFi access (to the flight, campground, beach etc.) and want to watch movies, I've put some movies to the queue and download 'em via WiFi/Eth to the handset. Average size of 2 hours transcoded movie is about 600/800 Mb (actually it depends, what kind of adaptive stream mode I have chosen)

Average transocde frame rate (conversion speed) for the full HD video is about 90-110 fps on my PC. It's not too fast but I do have cache ;)

So, in general my solution is useful and not so bad (I also have an Android tablets, with mounted network shares of my media folders. And most often, I can't play video because of player or network bandwidth limitation - full HD videos are huge!)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stan2:
What is the usefulness of MKV beside pirating movies and tv shows? Tell me what do you mainly use MKVs for besize pirating?

If you can't afford netflix account and/or zune movies, then because you're either jobless or a pirating hoohaas.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fealakwen:
Okay, I got it. A real player could be better, if I want to change options like subs or everything else while playing on my phone, but the "screen capture" erases all the troubles about codecs and co.

Other issue is the time spoilt because of the conversion on the computer, and not "live" on the phone. And it depends on your PC CPU, not on the smartphone processing unit. But you problably increase the battery life of the phone, don't you?

That's awesome, yep :)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilordvader:
Do we have CorePlayer & TCMP player on WP7

to play Videos ?

are there more players like these

where when we stop a video continues

from the exact place again ?

Thanks
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sensboston:
stan2, we are talking about video player solution, not about piracy. Please stay on topic (of course if you have something to say)...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fealakwen:
Well you're right. I'm legally pirating contents not available in my area. This isn't an excuse, I know, but honestly, what should I do? I buy what I can buy: movies, music thanks to Amazon (I can waste around 100 bucks a month that way). But when it comes to underground japanese animation, whitout any official translation or dubbed version, the only way is mkv.

Edit: TV show? I don't watch this kind of crap, ty.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fealakwen:
That IS the subject of this thread :o

And no, we don't have anything like that. TCMP is on WM.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sensboston:
It's not a "screen capture" :) , transcoding can be done by different techniques... Also, I do have a subs support (but don't have time to automate that like auto-download from the subs sites; you should have sub in separate file)

Actually, if you streaming and watching, time is not big problem. Usual, delay before starting playback is about 5 seconds ;) As I said before, my PC can transcode better than real-time (video have 30 fps, transcoder does 90-110 fps - 3-4 times faster).

About power consumption: unfortunately, streaming over WiFi plus simultaneous video playback of h264 is very costly of battery life :( 3.5 hours of video streaming over WiFi will completely drain your battery. Playback of already downloaded videos performs much better for battery (never tested for complete discharge so can't tell you exact time).
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fealakwen:
Well, you're the boss. I'm not keen on software subtleties, I'm a complete noob.

Well, actually, I don't give a damn about WiFi streaming. I want my device to be self-dependant, in a car, on a journey, on a boring week-end in the countryside...

And what's more, I don't want to keep my PC running all time, and to my opinion, most peoples are just like me. I was referring to this part of your post :

"if I'm going somewhere without WiFi access (to the flight, campground, beach etc.) and want to watch movies, I've put some movies to the queue and download 'em via WiFi/Eth to the handset. Average size of 2 hours transcoded movie is about 600/800 Mb (actually it depends, what kind of adaptive stream mode I have chosen)"

Well I stay tuned, and I'm looking forward to see your app on the market place. I hope that it will be available worldwide!

My friend, do you red what you wrote?

Most of smartphone users don't have even 5 % from your knowledge in software and hardware.

I think is normaly to ask for a simple all formats video player( like android have).

But seems Microsoft don't want to have nooby people as clients for WP7. But WP7 don't have anything simple and functionaly in it. and must be an IT specialist to use some capabilities.

is unacceptable to have a good multimedia platform with 16 Gb memory and can't transfer in it a mouvie to see it when I am not at home.

And I can't accept the solution to use a PERFORMANT COMPUTER(EXPENSIVE ) AND AN EXPENSIVE CONNECTION TO WATCH A MOUVIE.

and if I am in a zone where aren't any tipe of connection to the internet? what a hell I do to see that mouvie?

I see the smartphone like a solution for portability, a solution to go anyware without need all sort of connections.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Localhorst86:
first of all: you ressurected a pretty old thread ;)

second: Microsoft wants you to use Zune, it's that simple. Pull your movies/videos to your phone using Zune, the software re-encodes the video to be playable on your phone. That's what the user "John Doe" who has no idea about codecs/containers/bitrates etc. does. It doesn't get any easier than this, keeping the non-technical users in mind.

Of course, for us tech savvy users, this might not be the most statisfying way to do it, but you can still use any encoding software to re-encode your movies the way you want it. If they are natively supported by windows phone, zune won't re-encode them, it'll just copy them over.

PS: I haven't yet tried to put a full movie on my phone because I do not think that would be an enjoyable viewing experience, but I assume there might be a size limit.

keep in mind though, that our phones are limited in their power. There are reasons windows phone doesn't support 1080p content on the phone and they are probably called "performance", so having zune take care that your videos will play smoothly on the phone is probably the wisest choice.

PPS: I myself have gone from watching TV shows on my phone to watching TV shows on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 because the screensize is much more convenient on the train. The device is running android and I have a multitude of player choices, but I myself have to do the work to make sure the video plays back stutter free and without framedrops. This takes definatelly more attention on the side of the user.

Soo wp 7 suks?!

So when we talk in matters of multimedia phone wm 6.5 is far better than wp7 right?? Or I'm wrong?

I think the only 2 defects on wm 6.5 are the lack of memory and the discontinuous of market (very capitalist ideia)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rkwarner2:
Hello all.

I did do some searching before this post, but I was unable to find anything on it. So if the answer is already online some where, I apologize.

My Samsung Vibrant recently stopped auto rotating. I checked to see if my son had accidentally unchecked the option, and it was okay. I've tried unchecking, rechecking, battery pulls, clearing cache, and nothing worked.

I then backed up all my stuff, then did a factory reset. After rebooting, it worked. I restored from the backup and it was broken again.

I then went into the settings and looked at the horizontal calibration. When the screen with the little blue ball loads, the ball doesn't move as I tilt the device. So again, I did a factory reset and went back to the settings. This time the ball moved.

I'm not an android developer but I have some programming knowledge. From what I've seen, I conclude that the accelerometer is not broken, and that for some reason, something in the software is now preventing the accelerometer from being registered

My ROM is Trigger3.2-final, Froyo 2.2, KB5, voodoo lagfix, and I've been using this for a long time. So that makes me think that it was part of an app update that I've done recently. The bad part about that is I was slacking on my updates and the last time I updated, I updated 23 apps.

So, before I go through the process of uninstalling apps one by one to see if one of them is causing the conflict, I'd like to find out if anyone else is seeing this issue, and if there is any solution.

Let me know if you have any questions our need more info about the phone.

Thanks!

Reg.

I have the same problem. Running Bionix v1.3.1. Did you ever figure out what the problem was?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobshute:
believe this or not I had the same problem. Once flashing any rom from stock I would get stuck in landscape mode. The problem ended up being a dirty usb port. It was "shorting" pins and thought it was plugged into a dock. Cleaned the usb port and it worked fine again.
[Galaxy S II General] Vaim:
Does anyone know if it's possible to disable screen rotation for incoming calls?

It's annoying as hell, because every time i reach for my phone to answer a call, the screen is in landscape mode and i have to hold it straight for a few seconds to be able to decently answer the phone.

I don't want to disable the rotation completely, but it would be nice if it can be done for incoming calls only.

Thanks.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Will of fire:
Hi guys I'm coming from at&t I had a Samsung captivate then a attix. My sprint service isn't great but my fiance wanted us to get sprint so I got the et4g. I just wanted to know the big difference in cdma development vs GSM. I had att since 2003 so bear with me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] morphis568:
I'm in the same boat as you. Switching from att to sprint. In terms of development for the radios i can't say much because idk. but since gsm is more widely supported and the other GS2 phones run on gsm it will be easier to get it on those as well as a larger pool of devs.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Will of fire:
Yea I figured that much the signal is pretty bad at my house but my gf has great 4G at hers. On att I would get 5mb down n like 4up. I'm hoping that sprints get better because its so advertised.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] CalvinL:
I plan to just prop up my phone near my desktop with a case with a built-in kickstand. I was wondering if there was any way to change the homescreen orientation without rooting or even changing the launcher (I'm actually okay with TW 4.0). I usually go with Go Launcher, but if there's a way around it, that'd be great.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] foxbat121:
You need special dock from Samsung to put phone into docking mode. Or you can make your own jig with a special valued resistor on micro USB to force it into docking mode.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] CalvinL:
So there's no other way? That's kind of lame. I remember my phone went to horizontal mode when I was messing with it, but I didn't want it at the time. I guess it must have been a glitch.
[HTC Sensation] CdTDroiD:
So we are all trying to find out an answer to the wallpaper issue for the sense 3.5 bases

Going through HTCAlbum.apk and I found a few things that may be of interest if anyone can help solve it..

Seems these files may have something to do with it:

Crop.smali

PhotoEffects$CropThumbEffect.smali

PhotoEffects$CropEffect.smali

CropImage.smali

- .field public static final CROP_WALLPAPER:I = 0x7f04​

Anyone have any ideas? I really wanna sort this one. Im not HUGELY good with smalis but hopefully im on to something LOL
[HTC Sensation] setzer715:
Can you just replace the HTCAlbum.apk with the one from 3.0?
[HTC Sensation] JohnnyBlack10:
Maybe the selection and cutting of wallpapers has to do with Rosie.apk.
[HTC Sensation] CdTDroiD:
Nah we looked at that for ages
[HTC Sensation] falsinho:
Have you checked rosie from synergy rom? You can set a wallpaper in their rom, its based on sense 3.5!
[HTC Sensation] CdTDroiD:
Ill have a look at that, its the square thats the issue not setting it
[HTC Sensation] falsinho:
The 'square' is perfect on their rom. I think Baadnwz checked and was 465 smali's edited, not sure. :(
[HTC Sensation] daman215:
you have to set the wallpapers with a file explorer to avoid the square i use root explorer and dont get the square
[HTC Sensation] baadnewz:
well actually there are 93 after i removed the debugging but still too many just for a wallpaper fix or mods of rosie, i think syngery's rosie apk is from runny / bliss
[HTC Sensation] CdTDroiD:
Yea doesn't work
[HTC Sensation] setzer715:
Strange, that doesn't work for me. I find the file on my SDCard using root explorer, tap it to load, hit menu>Setas>Wallpaper and it comes up with the same cropping as using the wallpaper tool built in Sense.
[HTC Sensation] CdTDroiD:
What rom are you using?
[HTC Sensation] setzer715:
That was Insertcoin 3.2.x and ARHD 4.1.3 (tried both). But seems problem is fixed with Insertcoit 3.3.0!
