What a great application and development. What a disappointment about Hulu closing the doors. Any plans to find other TV streams to compensate?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Agent Zach:
I think I'm going to pay for the upgrade. I use the app too much right now. :P
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Toggs:
Superb

I paid for the upgrade and i have to say, it's superb. I did not think anything would come close the the quality of the Iphone's TVCatchup - but this does - and beats it on the HD2. Most of the same channels too. Any chance of getting the rest?

Thanks again

Toggs
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
Yep, we are always looking for legitimate sources to add to the application. Hopefully we will have some more soon.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
*** Updated to version 1.500 ***

Change list:

- Mandatory stream re-configuration

- Digital TV now uses YouTube player setting (as both require CorePlayer)

- Films category added to View menu (BBC iPlayer -> Other)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] billu:
I have tried the digital channels in a very good reception area (4 bars HSDPA) but still get the looping more often than not. Initially it might play for 30 secs, then it will go past 30 secs and play for say 1min 10 secs and loop again.

Is there a recommended configuration for coreplayer e.g. raw frame buffer, buffer size etc?

PS: I am using it on a HTC HD2.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
I do not experience any looping on my HD2 whilst connected via wifi or a full 3G signal. It usually starts with a 50 second clip and plays beyond the time scale specified. I have attached my CorePlayer config.xml file (renamed to include the .txt extension). I have CorePlayer version 1.3.6 build 7427.

Please make sure you take a record of your CorePlayer product key before replacing the config.xml as you will need to re-enter the key.

-Fry
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] billu:
Many thanks for the prompt reply FryWalker.

When in good signal reception area, I was previously moving the position slider (at the bottom of the video) to the end to get to the end of the 40 sec or so clip quickly. I think this resulted in the clip looping problem.

Last few times I have left the clip to play all the way through the initial 40 secs. It loops once but continues the next time. In low signal areas, the original clip might only be 10 secs and that's when it loops many times.

So the method seems to be:

1) Need good reception

2) Let the original clip (40 secs or so) play fully without fast forwarding and it will loop once and continue playing the next time.

I will keep an eye out for any deviations from this.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BlueLux:
I purchased the Premium upgrade last week for myPlayer. I got the registration key to my email, but when I enter the key in the program, nothing happens when I click "save".

I emailed the developers about my problem, but they were asking about which version of Opera I was running and stuff instead (not that I see why it should be relevant...).

Now I'm told that the authentication server is down at the moment and I would get a debug version later to see where's the problem when the server is back on. This was on tuesday, and I still haven't heard anything yet. WTF?

Anyone else had problems entering the registration key? (using HD2 with stock 1.66 ROM by the way...)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tgerbracht:
Never had a problem with my key. Check your private messages, Fry tends to handle personal issues like yours that way.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JukEboXAuDiO:
ummm wtf happenned to hulu? It doesn't support that now? lame!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] melloyello:
myPlayer

Mr Frywalker! I must congratulate you on a fantastic app. A frend has the MDA Compact IV, which has the iPlayer app installed, and it took me an age trawling through the net to find out that it and the TouchHD were the ONLY HTC phones that iPlayer had an app for?!

I installed myPlayer (MDA Compact V) and struggled with the early releases as they only worked with CorePlayer - as much as I love it $30 is a little pricey for me - so it sat in my phone and Skyfire was used partially.

It didn't help that another friend had Nokia N97 and was watching TV on his phone (grrr!!!)

I tried myPlayer last night and saw the "WMPlayer" options and viola!

This app is brilliant and a BIG thank you for all the developments and support you've given to everyone.

mello
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] babblerx:
Love this app

Brill app...especially the live TV option.

Shame about the 40 second loop at the start of each live stream though.

Any idea if this will be fixed in future releases?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
As I mentioned above I cannot reproduce the looping problem. I let the stream play in CorePlayer (without seeking forward) and it plays continuously as expected.

-Fry
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s4ndSt0rm:
Fantastic app, live channels were just what I was looking for. I have been looking for a live channel app for ages and myPlayer does the job nicely!

Tip (bug?): to add the bbc channels back just select Manage TV and add a custom entry with (for example) "bbc1" as the name and source field (and then add your own description) and they should work...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mrjetking:
Premium thinks its Lite after 1.500 upgrade

I've been a premium user for a couple of months and everything's been great. However, since the upgrade to 1.500 it will not recognise my premium key and insists its the lite version.

My key is still in the upgrade field but it will not let me save it.

Very odd... any help would be appreciated. Thanks

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
Unfortunately myPlayer only supports touch screen Windows Mobile devices, ie. Windows Mobile Professional.

-Fry
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mrjetking:
Resolved

The extremely helpful technical support for myPlayer highlighted a problem with multiple versions of Opera causing issues with registrations on myPlayer. I uninstalled Opera 9 and everything was fine.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sandymac:
I've noticed that on the last 3 updates that I can no longer view streams in full screen mode. It would appear that MyPlayer is deliberately blocking this. The instructions state that you can stream via their server for better quality but now find on the latest release that I can't as I'm expected to pay for the privilege.

I appreciate that the authors have to recoup their investment but surely BBC should be free and unimpeded. I am a UK resident and expect to be able to continue to enjoy what the MyPlayer program initially provided so why the change? Is this another way to ensure that everyone pays? If so, is the BBC aware and are they being paid? :mad:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
myPlayer does not block any full screen setting. It is true that you may be able to get a better quality stream via the myPlayer server but if you are within the UK the best quality content is accessible via the episode download feature which is available in myPlayer Lite. The next version of myPlayer Lite will also have improved iPlayer stream quality in general.

-Fry
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sandymac:
I am not talking about blocking full screen settings just the quality of the stream. I have always had Core Player set to qtv graphics with good quality stream yet after the last few updates, it will not play in this mode. I have to change to Direct Draw and then do not get full screen (I am using an HD) although it will play in full screen mode.

I don't want to download then delete after watching. The whole point of the iPlayer is that you can stream the content.

I look forward to the next version to see if this resolves the issue.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] napoleontheruler:
where did hulu go?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] looby:
No Live TV...

My Player used to work perfectly. With the latest update the live TV will not connect (see pic). Really winding me up. Everything else including Digital TV is OK. About to throw the towel in...:mad:

Device is a Diamond 2 with latest HTC stock 6.5 ROM
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] funem:
Cool, thanks for that. Such a nice app, works really well. Mine is running on a TyTn II with WM 6.1 but not NET 3.5 Compact Framework

BTW I think all the BBC Radio stations are available as asx streams ( I looked through the code of the webpages to get the asx stream urls )

I will try and dig out some more radio station URLs for you when I get some time.

Thanks again
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
Just downloaded this for my O2 XDA Zest. Works perfect! Much quicker & more reliable than the other iPlayer app for me.

All I need now is the radio streams & it would be perfect :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] funem:
Had more time tonight than I thought so.....

Here are some more Radio stations you may ( or may not ) want to add. I have included the homepage so you can "borrow" the graphics for a logo, and of course the stream urls

You added non BBC TV stations so I thought I would include non BBC Radio your choice, your appp

Once again thanks for the app
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
Thanks very much for the urls. I will certainly add them in, probably through a customisable interface so the user has a choice which ones to show (to reduce loading times if required).

-Fry
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
vibez,

Here is a test you can try on your media server to see if the BBC streams can be transcoded for myPlayer.

(the image below outlines the following steps)

1. Open the VLC application (v0.9.9) on your media server

2. Select "Open Network ..." from the Media menu

3. In the "Open" dialog - tick the "Show more options" checkbox and then paste the following rtsp link in to the "Customize" box (it is an episode of the Apprentice - You're Fired!):

rtsp://3gp-acl.bbc.co.uk:554/3gpclip/iPlayer/wifi_5327608001241336903.3gp

4. Click the down arrow below the "Customize" box (do not click Play) and then select "Stream"

5. In the "Stream Output" dialog - tick the "Play locally" check box

6. Then select "H264" from the Profile drop-down list

7. Now you are ready to test the transcoding - click the "Stream" button

If all is well and good the media stream should start transcoding and you should see the video after 10 seconds.

If not please select "Messages" from the "Tools" menu, set the Verbosity Level to 1 and then copy and paste the result in to a post so I can help investigate further.

-Fry
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gotmilk:
hi there im running this program on the samsung omnia everything works up to the point wen the coreplayer loads up, wen it does it loads for about 10 minutes and then says cannot open url. Any ideas on what the problem is and how to fix it

Thanks in advance
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] xavierdemon:
Installed your new release, quite slow loading up, in fact at one point I thought it hadn't lol but once again bloody awesome, I don't know how it manages to stream so well :).

Still not properly sized for the Diamond though but don't care anymore about that. Great work!!!!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
If you are trying to view the streams via 3G or EDGE it is possible that your mobile phone provider is blocking the rtsp port (namely port 554).

This is certainly the case with T-Mobile as I have their unlimited web and walk package and the streams will not load in CorePlayer.

However, I added the VLC media server integration to overcome this very problem ;)

All you need to do is install VLC on your PC, open a few ports and run the telnet script - then the streams can be transcoded on the fly and delivered to your mobile on a port that isn't blocked!

For a detailed guide of how to achieve this please read this post.

-Fry
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gotmilk:
thanks for the quick reply trying it now, keep getting the same message

"failed to telnet vlc server

xx.xxxx.xxx.xxx on port 4212

please ensure the vlc telnet

interface is loaded and the ports are open and forwarded if the server is connected to a router that implements NAT
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gotmilk:
is there a way to unblock the rtsp port via coreplayer?

yh i got t mobile ulimited web n walk :D :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
It may be that port 4212 is also blocked. Try a few other ports - the FTP port worked well for me - port 21 (you will need to modify the vlc.ini file also so that the telnet server script uses the correct port when the script is launched). T-Mobile decides which ports are open - there is no way for us to unblock them unfortunately.

One way to test the connectivity is to click the "Stop All Streaming on Server" button. This should return the message "Streaming stopped successfully" if myPlayer has managed to telnet the VLC server.

Also is your media server behind a firewall? And - if the sever is on a LAN - have you port-forwarded the telnet port?

-Fry
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gotmilk:
not to sure im abit new to all of this and i heard the router i got (bt homehub) is a nitemare with telnet. One thing i dont understand at all is that i got this to work a few days ago no problem but now nothing happens at all
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] filterfreak:
Hi, I just wanted to say "Great Job" with this app. I've been trying to get the iPlayer app to work for weeks on my Touch HD with no luck but yours seems to work without any problems. My only wish is that you could make a WVGA version. Thanks again J
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] filterfreak:
UPDATE: I just updated to the latest version and it works a treat on my Touch HD. Is there anyway of downloading clips ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] funem:
Just a small thing when you have the time... can you make the program icon transparant so it does not have a white box round it. Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] D8LOM:
OK, is this a BBC iPlayer? Sorry for asking this stupid question, it's just I've seen about 3 different iPlayer.:confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
Yes, the main content is loaded from the BBC iPlayer mobile web site.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
*** Updated to version 0.6b ***

Change list:

- Search History tracks most recent searches

- New sources for the BBC Radio stations

- Custom Radio stations can now be added

- Added option to download higher quality thumbnails

- Now/Next info for non-BBC Live TV programmes is now optional

- Search box is no longer hidden behind software keyboard

- A few layout improvements for 3G menus
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Noodled24:
The interface is slightly better on the iplayer app simply because of the fluid scrolling. However I was unable to stream anything with it.

MYplayer worked first time. Previously (because of the orange standard rom) iPlayer had never worked for me.

Myplayer is a brilliant little app.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] funem:
Nice update Fry, thanks for all your work.... OK strange this, but now the BBC live streaming works without a vlc media server... how did you do this ? ( not that I am complaining :D )

Thanks again
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
The BBC seemed to have changed their live TV sources, I am coding an update to fix the problem as we speak. Will hopefully have it released shortly. Sorry for the inconvenience.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] qpr1991:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
Hulu is no longer supported, although we are looking for alternative content to replace the content removed. We are also looking at adding more digital TV channels, but at this present time we do not have any further details.

If you would like to donate towards the development of the application please use the following link:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] qpr1991:
how much money would you want to add more just out of curiosity

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TomH01:
I have just upgraded to the premium version as I find it a great program, but one thing that puzzles me is that it says that I have 851,432 KB of credit remaining and used this month is 148,567 KB, I thought that premium users are supposed to get 2GB of credit, and I can't understand how I have used 148,567 KB of credit in just over 24 hours with light usage when I have it set to access the media streams directly, anybody have any answers?

Tom
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
Tom, if you contact our support team they should be able to give you a break down of your usage.

-Fry
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TomH01:
Thanks Fry, I'll do that.

For those planning to watch the World Cup live on BBC or ITV (UK only) please use the this config.xml file with CorePlayer for the best results.

-Fry
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
For users outside of the UK, here are the channels that will be broadcasting World Cup matches:

France: Orange Sports

Italy: Sport Italia

Germany: Sporttime TV

You can access these feeds by selecting "View -> Live TV -> Full Index" and then selecting the country and channel specified.

-Fry
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] WasStoNed:
Hi Fry, where do you put this file?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
The file should be renamed to config.xml and then copied to the CorePlayer installation directory, typically "\Program Files\CorePlayer\".

-Fry
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] -Jonny-:
Don't forget to make backup of your old config.xml file - you may want to remember your serial number ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tommy1994:
seem the sport italia won't show worldcup

isn't it?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mndl632:
i know you're not able to reproduce it, but i'm getting that looping problem, even using that config file that was posted a few pages ago. I've let it play through the 40 seconds or so, had it restarted and let it run through again and then it just looped once more. Is it possible that it could be an issue with the version of coreplayer i'm using?

EDIT: tried an older version of coreplayer and still had the same problem so it's not the version that's causing the problem
