First of all let me thank EVERYONE who contributed to this site. I'm new to the Hermes world and everything I needed to know on how to flash my phone was documented in a very easy to understand way. My cingular 8525 is now running the cooked WMXL 0.20 relase with an upgraded radio from 1.16 to 1.35.00.11. I couldn't be happier.
One thing i've always wondered about my device is when I go to a site like www.pocketpcmedia.com half the time i try and stream a video i get a blank screen and can only hear sound. Maybe if i stop and start the video a few times i'll finally be able to actually see it. What gives? Upgrading to WMXL didn't seem to fix this problem.
What does the Streaming Media program do in WMXL?
Thanks

The issue with no video but only audio seems to occur when the videobitrate of the videostream is too high to be handled by wmp.
For pocketpcmedia you should try to select to "low" bitrate stream (but these sometimes also have a videobitrate wich is too high)
Do you have any examples for streams where this happens?
The streaming media Program is used for streaming in 3gp format. You can for example select the "3gp" streaming format in Orb. Then when you select a videostream in Orb you will see the streaming media program starting.
Just uploaded the files from ExtROM from 3 Sweden which is for making everything working on the 3 portal, streaming audio, video etc. Have just tested streaming audio and it works a treat, listening to P3 Star while writing this.
I just installed this ExtROM .exe file from 3 on top of Black 4, unlocked ExtROM and clicked the Autorun file which installs everything.
The ExtROM is supposed to be installed on the ROM: 2.11.263.1, so I'm not sure that everything like DRM protected downloaded music will work when installed on top of a VM6 rom.
Let me know how it works for you.
Tested to play a song I downloaded from the Portal earlier but it still will not play... I wonder where DRM information is stored and what files are needed to get this to work?
Ps. it messes up the dialer when installed on top of Shadow, I just used it as test, since I was going to change rom anyhow.
Hi!
Thanks for uploading the cabs from 3's portal. I just made a hard reset on Shadow, installed the 3 package and instantly after that I installed the JJ's video dialer and it fixed the problem with screwing up the dialer. Of course I don't get that fancy big-button dialer but I need video so..
By the way, do you know if we "miss" anything from just installing this? Is there any difference between installing the package and buying a completely branded phone from 3 except from provider lock? The reason why I ask is that I find the 3Portal being really slow when surfing it with IE (pages takes up to a minute to load time to time) but streaming audio and video works perfect.
this is the audio manager form wm6 vox put in on your storage card and run it make a shoutcut to it
Cool, it works well, thanks.
Wow! Thanks! This is a great alternative to Windows Media Player - handles my music collection much better and the timing is perfect - I was looking for a replacement application.

PRoblem with Audio Manager
I have installed but run partial because i dont see the bottom bar and i have an error "Load RC fail"
Help me...
Thanks
Is it just me or doesn't this program sort the music on the albums correctly. Seems like it just does alphabetical and not by real album track order as WMP does.
I'd use it all the time if it weren't for that. Is there a way around that? I don't see anyway to set it up sorting wise.
Woo got this running on my samsung blackjack aka i600. Its the one thing i missed from my SPV E650. Changed to the blackjack because the screen kept breaking on the SPV gutted as it was an awesome lil phone.

Yep, I confirm, and it is a reason for me to use WMP.
Is everyones' font on main streen of HTC audio manager (artist, title etc...) so small? I run it on QVGA screen and it is really tiny - like 8 px :/
Any solutions please?
Anyone figure out a registry entry or something to adjust the font on the Audio Manager? I need it like 12 or 14 point... anyone?

I've been using TCPMP, a very neat player with lots of plugins for both audio and video playback, works wonderfully, has many options (I mean many!), even a benchmark , in a few words I love it!
You should give it a try, and with the plug ins you can get flv playback, mp4 playback and whoever knows what may come out soon
Used in combination with Pocket DivX encoder works like a charm with my lobby, the only weak point is when you try to play WMV files intended for PC, the WMP has a bit more power, but who said one program eliminates the other
Is there an updated version of the Audio Manager?
There's some bugs in version 1.0, such as sorting by trackname vs track #
HE-AAC playback doesn't seem to work properly, SBR is not decoded, sounds dull
I've contacted HTC but they weren't be able to help much, gotten no responce after sending them a sample file...
Most recent version i've seen on the forums version 1.02 build 1017.717 should have the fix to sort by track #

I heard you can use the Audio Manager to make ringtones is there already a thread on here for it.. just wondering if anyone knows how to make ringtones with it
just select Set as ringtone in Menu and then select Trim. This is where you can crop the song and save it as the ringtone
thanks for this! working on i780

ATT Tilt using the Windows 6.1 version

I just recently changed my ATT tilt with the windows 6.0 version to the 6.1 version. I want to download the HTC Audio Manager so I can manage my ring-tones. However, I downloaded the link that was provided by rickwyatt and run it to my laptop but could not find the setup to install it on my laptop to transfer it to my phone. I tried also to copy the audio-zip link and paste it to my storage card while my phone was syncing but it didn't work. Can some one tell me how to or get the HTC manager so I can transfer it to my phone and what are the protocols. Thanks,
Hey guys, new owner to the Tytan here, I got Sprint's version though.
So far so good with the phone but i do have a couple nitpicks...
I already read about the battery life, i think the one i got at first was used or something cause not even using wifi a lot or bluetooth i was avg less than a day! I got another battery, hopefully it works better...
1st Question: I noticed Windows Media Player has no equalizer, what kind of programs out there do you guys reccomend for playing music that have more options than WMP?
2) I tried playing videos through youtube but WMP keeps giving me error messages saying "cannot read file" What can i do?
I got others but i can't remeber now.
Thanks for your help!
NOT sure about the equalizer...Search for tcpmp and the flashvideobundle and you can get youtube.

Since July I have an annoying problem with playing a video which was made by camera in VGA.
It freezes every 1 - 2 seconds.
I have problems only with this type of video.
Which packages do I have to replace?
Or do I have to do something else in my kitchen?
P.S. Tried 2.14 - 3.14 Drivers.
Does anyone know, how to solve this problem?
Please, HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TCPMP (The Core Pocket Media Player) is a free alternative. This is where CorePlayer came from. It plays any format with the best results, it can even display subtitles. It will make the best use of your hardware. Assuming you have an HD2, it will play DVD Rip movies without any problems, just as you get them on your computer.
I want to get rid of freezes for default (HTC) player, because I want my HD2 work better with default soft.
You could try installing leo cpu speed and disable speed scaling, that may help.
Sounds like an issue reading from the sd card though, it may be worth backing up your files and formatting the card.
Did you change roms recently, i.e. around July 1st?
I made the last my rom yesterday.
And this issue have all my users.
Doesn't anyone know how to solve my problem?
If you could upload a sample captured video, then somebody can try in their mobile and then you identify its an issue with player or recording format,bitrate etc.
