wich is the best program and why ?
should i keep my original windows-media player wich wont play mp3 or is there a better one out there .....???
The original Media Player DOES play MP3 files. However, I prefer WMA format at 64k, which doubles my storage space with very little loss in quality (as far as what you can hear from the PPC even with good headphones). Unfortunately, the two excellent aftermarket players do not support WMA. So, if you want to play MP3 files, I recommend withMP3 (expensive, more mature) or PocketMusic (free, good but not perfect, early version release). The URL for the latter is www.pocketmind.com; I don't recall the URL for the other one.
With the windows media player keep the bit rate below 160k and the MP3's will play without issue, or got to Tools setttings, Audio & Video and allow the device to play unsupported files.

Well, the site is down so I can't go try it out. Does it actually play WMA format?

I see no evidence that it plays "all other formats." In fact, considering the author's anti-MS rant, I see reason to believe it will NOT play WMA.
i have searched the forums and i cant really figure this one out. Basically the media player of my imate refuses to play .mpg or .avi. When i click on the video file it tells me to open the program associated with this file first, when i use windows media player and update the library it fails to locate the file. I have tried playing files from both the storage card and the internal memory but have had no success. Im using the default windows media player in a CID locked g4.
If i am missing something completely obvious or i havent given enough info then i apologise in advance for my ignorance but i hope someone can assist me with my problem.
thanks
This should be a codec problem.
Media player isn't shipped with the necessary codec to handle MPEG (I may be wrong...) and what codec is your avi encoded with.
You'd better try with another player like TCPMP for example as it supports many formats.
Also, Windows Media Player is able to trancode audio and video so it suits your device.
BTW, this isn't a G4 specific issue.
Next time, ask your question in this thread : you will get more feedback.
ok thankyou for highlighting my faults, and thankyou for your prompt response i will try your advice. Hopefully this will solve my problem. Next time i will post in the appropriate forum.
Missing Codecs
Hi bwesty,
I had the same issue with my I mate K-JAM not playing AVI's, download TCMP & AAC audio codec (search this forum) will fix your problem, unfortunately I haven't tried MPG's yet....
All the best

Here are the .rm addresses of some BBC radio stations for live broadcasts.
I got these by installing Real Player Alternative (google it!) on my pc which plays the streams back through Media Player Classic. I then brought up the "Playlist" function in Media Player Classic and hovered the mouse over the encoded address which gave me the true .ra stream information to put into Real Player for PPC.
I have tested all the streams on my x7500 and they work a treat. I get a coach from Balsfjord to Tromsø (1,5hrs) every day and it has a free wifi connection for the passengers so now I listen to the BBC.
This method will also work to get stream information for shows kept on the BBC iplayer for 7 days. So if there is a live broadcast you missed you can listen anytime.
If you put these addresses into a text file and then rename the file name extention .rm e.g. Radio2.rm (not the stream address!) on your Advantage you can use them as buttons on something like claunch that will auto open in Real Player PPC.

The BBC is soon to switch it's iPlayer audio streams over to AAC but the method should work again so long as you can open the stream in Media Player Classic to get the address and then find a new piece of Software that will play AAC streams on the Advantage. (I think Mort's Player may do this already).
enjoy
Another way is to go to www.bbc.co.uk/mobile/radio/listen for WM and RM links for all BBC radio stations
or
http://www.radiofeeds.co.uk/pda/
Thanks guys.
I only listed the live feeds as an example of how to expose the true .rm stream. I know they are freely available elsewhere but I still have not found a regular resourse for the "listen again" streams in iPlayer. As I said in my post you can find the stream address for any shows over the last 7 days via the method I put up.
I should have made that that main point clearer, I know.
opps... thanks matt- i for one should have read your first post more clearly

Thanks for the links though, i lost radiofeeds way back and couldn't remember its name. A senior moment
Hello there,
I Have an old phone which i want to use as a media player.
I tried to install a few VNC Servers for WM5, but that wasn't workable.
I Wonder if there is an application which i can run on my old phone, and then control the playing streams or MP3 files via a web-interface or something.
Something like VLC has, but there isn't a VLC for WM5 with an HTTP interface as far as i know.
Thx in advance.
You can try Pocket Player from Conduits (www.conduits.com). Their SW acts as UPNP Server or Agent, i.e. you can either stream SW from the device elsewhere or receive streams from other servers. I think that there were also programs to remote control WMP, but I have never used them.
You need to define for your purpose what shall be done where:
- control the playback
- Audio output
- media data
Hey all,
I hope this is the correct forum for my query, apologies if it isn't. I had a look before posting but my query is quite unique.
When i play streams through dedicated apps such as Tvcatchup on 4.0.4 (live streaming of UK Freeview channels in a standalone app), streams play flawlessly.
But when I try to play streams within browsers, the video is very jerky (sound is great though).
My next thought was to try and play the network stream directly through a player such as VLC. When I look at the source of the web page containing the embedded player on a streaming site, i get rtmpe:// and http://****.m3u8 links.
Tried to play both via the network stream option in VLC for android (beta) and nothing happens. When I play them on a PC, i get errors. Looking at the playlist.m3u8 file within text editor, it creates a session ID (i am guessing linked to your logon to the website as a way to authenticate users) and tags it onto the end of the .m3u8 URL.
If anyone got previous experience in this area and can offer any advice would be really appreciated.
Thanks!
