how do you uninstall or get rid of TCPMP if its cooked into a rom .. im using NRG energy rom max sense ui .. but the TCPMP thats in it doesnt seem to work .. everytime i try to use it it crashes .. so i want to uninstall or get rid of it so i can try out this TCPMP .. any help would be great .. thanks :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nodens:
You can't uninstall what's cooked into a rom because it's...well..a ROM (Read Only Memory). The only thing you can do is install both or flash a new rom without it (or cook one yourself although I doubt you'd be asking this if you knew how and it's not a trivial thing to learn).

I'm 99% sure that your cooked version resides in \Windows\ (doubt a cook would relocate the files via initflash cause they take double space then) so you should be able to install this cab without modification:)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] runwitme:
yea found the answer already .. lol :D thx tho

yea tried deleting the files already in \Windows and installing the cab on device but it still dont work for me .. it keeps crashing .. ill keep trying . :D

well finally got TCPMP to work .. great app .. thanks =D

"Suspend play" feature doesn't work

My phone is running WM6.5,"suspend play" feature doesn't work properly,pressing suspend button only locks keypad when this build of TCPMP is playing,while screen keeps on(with the video showing) and screen touching feature is still operating,this means that I miss the main function of suspend mode(black sceen for power-saving,disabling screen touching to avoid unexpected operating).

It's been 8 days and it's been downloaded 33 times and not a single report on whether the new 480x800 and 480x640 versions of my skin are better than the originals?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] casouzaj:
Thanks for your skin. The buttons seem to have been well designed, regarding their sizes. Nevertheless, on my device they get obstructed by TCPMP's default controls. I don't know why they don't go away, since another skin (yours) was selected. Take a look at the attached picture for further details.

Regards,

Carlos

EDIT: I don't know why, either, in the first picture, the TCPMP controls got in the way. In another shot, you can see that your skin still gets behind the softkey controls...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Osprey00:
casouzaj,

Thanks. It looks like I was right the first time with regards to the 52 pixels. I've set the size back (-52 pixels high), so the controls ought not to be cut off now. You or someone else, please let me know how these are.

EDIT: I've updated my original post with the new zip. Please visit the following link to download it: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6071639&postcount=284
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] casouzaj:
It's fully visible now. Thanks a lot! The titles' font you place under each control is really tiny, but each icon is self explanatory, anyway.

Thanks again.

Cheers!

Make use of TD2 Zoom Slider

It would be really great if you could use the zoom slider to move the positioning bar of TCPMP back and forth! Any chance.

If that is not possible the other choice would be to build a touch gui in full screen mode like most current players have - how about that?

Hello,

I saw this version today! :eek:

What a great TCPMP version. I installed into HTC Touch HD and even the heavyes movies played fast and with no lag.

My older version (old compilation) was fine, but with so many "incompatible error" and lot of lags.

Tks for sharing and for the great version.

GTX skin for TCPMP

I have create a GTX skin for TCPMP.

it also support landscape:)

it only support wvga on hd2.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dainar:
it is better.

I ask you something: Can you put the button allows the jog (Move forward step)?

tnks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Osprey00:
I'm not sure of what you mean. Some resolutions don't have the fast forward button (since there wasn't room), but that's a continuous move forward, not a "step." I'm not sure that any of the resolutions of my skin have what you're talking about, do they? If not, can you point to an existing skin that has what you're talking about?

We Missed Something...

Since the recent death of youtubeplay, we have all been forced to locate new programs for downloading youtube videos. The two most popular applications currently are GetYTV, and mvu, but these both lack an internal player the way youtubeplay had. As a result, videos must be downloaded before being watched and cannot be streamed. My point is this: we forgot to see if we could integrate RTSP protocol into TCPMP. Attempting to play videos off the youtubebe site itself in TCPMP, or when using these new downloaders will result in TCPMP displaying the error "RTSP Protocol not supported!" Is here a plugin out there to make this option for streaming video active, or available?

about ffmpeg.plg's mess and armv6 version

More and more people are complaining about armv6 version of plugin, that it doesn't work even on armv6 enabled devices, my advice is to use some other version that works :D. By releasing those ffmpeg pack I've created a mess and confusion and seriously thinking to remove all those versions and leave just one generic ffmpeg.plg, because I have no reports that any of those versions increases flv playback dramaticaly.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Unit ZER0:
The reason I even bring this up is that at one point, someone over on sourceforge created an flv plugin that had YouTube streaming functionality built into it. Obviously, that would cause a conflict if we attempted to use it with the current build, it would kill the current flv plugin. I guess I wanted to know if it was possible to extract just that function from the plugin, and make it a standalone plugin.

Here is the plugin in question: http://sourceforge.net/projects/progrdowntcpmp/

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MrGoodtunes:
That code is in the <viewport.../> statement. The 'left' and 'top' values are screen coordinates of the upper leftmost point for song art or video. The 'width' and 'height' values are pretty much self explanitory. But, before you mess with Viewport values, have you tried TCPMP options? For example, do you have [Options > Pixel Aspect Ratio] set to [Square]? Also, under [Options > Zoom] have you tried [Best Fit]?

Whenever I hook up my tv out cable, TCPMP goes to landscape, and I get the screen below [with no scroll bar], and none of my buttons are visible. I can change it to full screen, but then it pauses, so I tap it to restart, it goes back to this screen, etc...what have I done wrong here?

[btw: stock cdma Tp2, wm6.5/2.1]
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bimbam69:
Duramax,

From the screenshot you've attached i can tell that you are using one of those nedrg based skins. I can tell, because all of them look very similar and those skins supports only portrait mode, so when the screen is rotated you get such situation. You could follow links provided in first post and find yourself a suitable skin that has support for landscape mode.

Minimizing TCPMP???

Hello,

any possibility of minimizing TCPMP Player?

The reason why is, i´d like to play music on a PND

in background modus and reopon player via desktop button.

I just need a button to call the desktop.

Thank´s in advance
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MrGoodtunes:
On my HTC Vogue with WinMo 6.1, tapping the [X] on top task/info bar minimizes TCPMP (music plays in background). Be sure you have your TCPMP setting to allow this by placing checkmark in checkbox at:

Options > Settings > Select Page > Player > Play music in backgr.

To stop TCPMP requires press & hold on [X], or better: Menu>Exit, as long press stopping requires OS setting and may close app before it can save some info.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tronikos:
bimbam69 ,

Here are two small patches.

1. The first one changes the version of player.exe to 4.20 so that it can run on Windows CE 4.20.

2. The second one dynamically loads the SipShowIM so that it can run on Pocket Navifation Devices that are often missing this function.

Hope you integrate these changes like you did with my other ones about 4 months ago.

Thanks, I'll update the sources.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bimbam69:
No, transparency is not supported in TCPMP

There might be several reasons for that:

Buggy rom;

Some installed programs that somehow deals with screen rotation;

Aslo it is known that installing/updating several versions of TCPMP can raise unnexpeceted behaviour to avoid that you can folow these steps:

Unninstall current TCPMP

Check for TCPMP folder in corresponding Program Files and if it exists delete it

Check for registry key named TCPMP in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE and if it exists delete it

Install desired TCPMP

on RC2 there was presented several new strings so you will be seeing some items still in english.

Those strings are:

OPEN021F=Back
OPEN0220=Select Recursively
INTF0262=AVRCP Control
AVRP0100=Make TCPMP supports AVRCP
AVRP0101=AVRCP Enabled
AVRP0102=Play
AVRP0103=Pause
AVRP0104=Prev
AVRP0105=Next
AVRP0106=Backward
AVRP0107=Forward
AVRP0108=Off Screen when Headset Button pressed
AVRP0109=Auto toggle A2DP Mode
AVRP0110=You have set "Auto toggle A2DP Mode",when you connect a Headset and run TCPMP,it will toggle A2DP output automaticlly.\n\nNOTICE:If TCPMP is already opened while Headset connecting,you must restart TCPMP to take effect.
AVRP0111=Lock keypad while Screen Off
AVRP0112=Stop

You cane paste those in the end of your language file and translate, also post your translated file here so that i could update language.tgz file.

BTW nice skin :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] millo1978:
Thanks for all! :)

There is also SETTINGS --> SUBTITLES to translate...

but I haven't strings. Do you have?

Thanks! :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bimbam69:
Those are hardcoded ones and cannot be translated unless the sourcecode is edited, Today I've checked the source code and those strings should be:

SUBT0010=Font
SUBT0011=Hi res size
SUBT0012=Low res size
SUBT0013=Low res boundary
SUBT0014=Speed (1/10 sec)
SUBT0016=Enabled
SUBT0017=Bold font
SUBT0018=Old style (shadow)
SUBT0019=FPS (.SUB, 1/1000 sec)
SUBT0020=Top align
SUBT0021=Horiz. margin
SUBT0022=Vert. margin
SUBT001A=Do not hide text
SUBT001B=Font color

NOTE: translating these strings wont do nothing with current release but when it gets updated your language file wil be up to date.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] millo1978:
thanks!

Have you also these strings?

Options --> Subtitles --> Open...

Options --> Subtitles --> Speed decrease

There aren't here:

http://code.google.com/p/tcpmp-revive/source/browse/trunk/lang/lang_en.txt
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bimbam69:
I know that there is no such strings because those were hardcoded into program. Here use these:

INTF0244=Open...
INTF0303=Speed decrease
INTF0304=Speed %d (clear)
INTF0305=Speed increase
INTF0307=Previous keyframe
INTF0308=Repeat keyframe
INTF0309=Subtitles on/off
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] millo1978:
INTF0244 is occupied... other strings are good!

in my first picture INTF0244 is "Nessuno" under "Open..."

I put lang_it.txt in TCPMP folder and I have my translation.

I'm surprised that those translations took affect, I did not expect this, anyway this one is strange, but cool feature :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Osprey00:
bimbam69,

With your latest release (and, likely older ones, too), playing WMV files gives the following error: "Player: Video codec (Windows Media Video X) not supported by the player!" Oddly, this is easily solved by replacing language.tgz with this one. Just now, I checked this a third time by downloading the latest build, trying a WMV file (error), copying that language.tgz and re-trying the WMV (success). I've checked it with both a WMV9 video and a WMV7 video. Perhaps you'd consider including this language.tgz (which appears to have all of the same languages and is even 5KB larger), instead. BTW, this is on a CE Core 5.0 device (PNA).

Also, about four months ago, I posted some replacement menu bar graphics that I notice still haven't been added to the source. In case you just forgot, here they are again:

Interface.plg resource #112:

Interface.plg resource #121:

They're much nicer looking than the ones that TCPMP comes with. I'm not sure if WM users even see them, but CE Core users definitely do, so it makes the player a tad prettier for them. I've been manually adding them to each interface.plg that I've used over the years and would love to see them included so that I can stop doing that :). Thanks.

EDIT: Oh, also, I've noticed that the same menu bar replaced by those graphics disappears when a skin is enabled (this is with the default graphics, too, so it's not the new ones). Is that a bug or was it intentional? Maybe if it was intentional because the default graphics are ugly, you might re-consider it now that you have these nicer graphics. Even though the bar isn't needed much when you have a skin, it's still nice to have, feels a little odd to have it missing and it provides a fast forward button, which not all skins have. Maybe it's just me and people like it being hidden; I don't know.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nixeus:
Hello my friends,

Is this TCPMP the last release ?

* I don't success to watch my video in landscape on my HTC HD2, anyone could help me ?

* Secondly, if the Direct3D mode is selected, my video played very slowly (mp4 video) on my HD2.

Have you an idea for these two questions ?

Thanks a lot :)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bimbam69:
Osprey00,

language.tgz contains the names of wmv decoders (dll files located in windows dir) and those names depends on Windows Mobile version (don't know whats the situation on generic WinCe devices), so for WM2003 and WM5.0 your posted language.tgz file will be ok, but in WM6.0 and above it won't work, because the names of wmw decoders have changed. Mainly that was the reason why I used to have two veriations of TCPMP build's: one for older OS'es an one for more recent ones.

About your posted graphics: I forgot to update them, my bad :D

And yep making menu bar disapear when skin is loaded is intentional, because on Windows Mobile it enables softkey based menu, you can see it in screenshots on first post, where file menu is on the left side, and options menu is on the right side of the screen, having the old menu bar was very finger unfriendly, especially on devices with smaller screen sizes. Again everything was done with Windows mobile in mind and I know that the situation is slighly different in generic WinCe devices (the menu bar doesn't change much, except that buttons are not shown)

Latest build has updated interface more suited for Windows Mobile devices making it more finger friendly. For use with generic WinCe device i would recomend to try one of my previous releases for WM2003 because its more suitable to generic WinCe and I can guarantee that wmv files will play straight out with that version, get it here
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bimbam69:
A screenshot would help to understand a problem. If you're having trouble playing video in fullscreen I'd say check TCPMP settings, if not and skin is loaded could be the skin that you are using it might not have the support for landscape mode.

Don't know which mode is best for HD2, but can say that trying to play heavy videos on tcpmp is not very good idea for that purpose beter use Windows media or what ever is built in or Coreplayer.
