This application is primarily developed for WVGA devices and tested on HTC Touch Diamond2.
It supports both main Poker tournament types - freezout and rebuy (with or without addon).
At this stage of project there is certainly many bugs, but application is fully usable.
I publish this alpha version even for reason of beta testing, so feel free to use it, as you wish
and send me a feedback.
This application requires .NET Framework 3.5

Just a quick question regarding your comment about "Better support for VGA devices." What are the current issues running this application on a VGA device?

the only issue is, that you have to scroll screens to find some buttons, textboxes...
new version added
version 0.3 added
Thanks for the VGA version. Will try it ASAP.
CAB installer added
version 0.4 added
We haven't played tournaments in our home game yet, but thanks anyway!
tested on HTC Leo (HD2) and it works like a charm
version 0.5 added
Cool, thanks for this... Will definitely give it a try.
v0.6
----
- added Payouts
Thanks good news
This is a great program for guys like me that decide, at 10:00 PM, they feel like playing a home tournament at 10:30 PM and don't have a laptop arround!
Just 3 suggestions...
For your next version you could
- add a late registration button (player +)
- put the "plus" buttons on the right and the "minus" on the left, or one over the other with "plus" on top... it would be more intuitive
- add an option to sound a warning a few seconds (1 minute is the usual) before the blind goes up
Thanks and Good Luck
Great Tool! Works fine, besides the functionality it would be nice to make it look a little nicer. Has this WM5 look. Any chance of a fullscreen re-design?
i would like to, but i have no graphic skills

Maybe this could help a little:

That will be good if this app will be has nicer graphics, but I think more important thing if this program could be runnig when the phone is in stand by mode.
It is possilbe?
I would love to see a more polished app like this. I currently use this poker timer:http://www.pocketgear.com/en/usd/4104741,product-details.html?M2DPId=100009.
But I really like the extra options you have incorporated in yours.
I would definitely be more interested if you could add sounds similar to the ones I have attached below. Thanks for your work!

I was looking for Emulator(GameBoy/GameBoy Color/Gameboy Advance) for Smartphone and i found a lot of others that does not work or there is no option for me to change the resolution because it is too small.
Finally i found a post from modaco that work on my cingular 3125 wm5/wm6/wm6.1
I believe it also work on older OS like wm2003
Hi everybody,
I've been hunting on the net for good console emulators for the smartphone and came across PicoDrive and PocketSNES. Unfortunately neither of these emulators worked properly on my C550. So I decided to try and fix it so I could play my favourite games on my phone.
The biggest change is probably getting it to work at QVGA resolution, which was a definite improvement to the postage stamp size window. After much tinkering, I think I've reached a milestone and am happy to share it with the rest of the community.
Disclaimer: These programs have been tested on my C550. I hold no responsibility for any damage caused by running them on your own devices.

There have been changes to the HTC hardware to disallow volume/record/camera keys to be used as game buttons, please stick to the keypad when redefining your own to avoid problems.
I would appreciate some feedback on your experiences with these emus, whether good or bad.
Please send enhancement requests to the original developers as I have no plans for doing any more updates to these programs.
Enjoy!

The best emulator I've seen is SmartGear. It has support for NES, GBC, GameGear, Genesis and a couple others I think. It's going to have SNES support really soon apparently too.
The only problem is it's not free, but it works so well and with unlimited free upgrades, I think it's worth it.
bitbanksoftware.com (there's a dev discussion at modaco)
Wicked. Just what i needed. Thanks for posting this (..and thanks to Parallax for the changes!)
What are game emulators? The name implies a peice of software which enables running various formatted console games. Or is it a console game that has be rendered to play on a multitude of devices. In which case, a more appropriate name would be game emulation.
is this worked for 6.1 pro erofich ?
The PicoDrive is an interesting app.
But isn't it possible to load ROMs from a SD card?
I can't select the card in the menu and with my 64 MB ROM there's enough memory for just 1 ROM.
are there any GB/GBC/GBA emulators for HTC diamond? i tried "PocketGnuboy_QVGA_08_01_06.zip" and i was able to config the keyboard for directional keys and game keys but every time i tap the screen (to launch keyboard), it always pause so i cannot play it anyway.
any other alternatives or solutions please....
i appreciate it thanks...
hahaha... i just found a keygen for smart gear...it's funny coz the keys are dependent to owner ID.
For HTC-built MSM7K-based devices only! All MSM7K are technically capable, but only HTC's may have the correct drivers. Will probably not work on stock ROMs. I suspect the CDMA versions of the older MSM7K devices - pre-diamond - do not have the necessary drivers either. As far as I know, the first device that came with these drivers is the Kaiser, but IIRC they are also included in various Polaris ROMs.
About
Short and simple, GfxBoost activates "QTV" mode for specific surfaces. This makes for example DirectDraw display smoother and: a bit slower or significantly faster, depending on how you look at it. It also seems to have a small effect on Direct3D/OpenGL. Effects differ between different devices, driver sets, and ROMs - some see a lot of impact, some virtually none (it seems the older ROMs/devices see the biggest impact). If your performance degrades there is something going wrong, it does happen for some people.
Err, what?
Right, this is a bit tricky! If you will benchmark it the result will be lower FPS. However, it will actually appear faster. This is because normally, not all frames are actually drawn on-screen, and the timing of the drawing can be so it appears nothing is being actually drawn at all. This does not happen when using GfxBoost - more is actually drawn to the screen, and smoother. So, from the application's point of view, it can do less per second, but from what you actually see on-screen, more happens! If you don't understand what I mean, just take it from me: it definitely looks better
Some good effects
Manila2D is faster/smoother [Chainfire]
PointUI is smoother [Chainfire]
CorePlayer playback in DirectDraw mode is smoother [Chainfire] *depends on version and settings*
Titanium seems to be faster [Mikulec]
Diamond Hologram seems to be much faster [aussiebum]
Opera 9.5 seems to be much faster [undac]
SPB Mobile Shell 3.0 seems to be smoother [TITAN-23]
iGo 8 feels the love [draxredd]
morphgear feels the love [draxredd]
FinalBurn feels the love [FlorentG]
TouchFlo 3D feels the love [babijoee]
XTRAKT feels the love [babijoee]
Some bad effects
GfxBoost breaks WMP MP4 playback [FIXED]
GfxBoost breaks camera [FIXED]
GfxBoost breaks Fullscreen/Streaming Player [FIXED]
GfxBoost breaks YouTube [FIXED]
CorePlayer playback in QTV mode may break GfxBoost (may be fixed)
Devices reported this works with
HTC Touch Cruise / Polaris
HTC TyTN II / Kaiser
HTC Touch Diamond / Victor
HTC Touch Pro / Raphael / Fuze
HTC Touch HD / Blackstone
Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 / Venus
Also works with, but not as much effect as with ^^^:
HTC Touch Diamond 2 / Topaz
HTC Touch Pro 2 / Rhodium
Update: it may still have _some_ effect with the Topaz, but I don't think anyone has seen any improvement with the Rhodium, so don't bother Seems the drivers on those devices are quite a bit faster already than the older MSM7K devices
Quirks
Alright, it took a bit of research, a lot of trial and error, quite a bit of hairpulling, a few hours of IDA, and an entire crate of beer to get this working on the few of my devices I actually bothered to test it on (Kaiser and Touch Pro). I think everything is now properly hooked up with HTC's own software so things like Camera and WMP also still work. If you run into anything, strange, well, first RTFM below, then see if you want to post it here.
TFM (The F*ing Manual, read it!)
Requirements
An HTC-built MSM7K-based device, sporting QTV and some similar nonsense. In general, I would say this this is the entire range between the Vogue and the Touch Pro, though I've only tested it on Kaiser and Touch Pro, and both are GSM.
Installation
- Install the CAB on your device
- Soft-reset (does not seem to be needed on all devices)
- Start GfxBoost and click Enable
Uninstallation
- Start GfxBoost (if not running) and click Disable
- Uninstall CAB as usual
- 1.2: You may have to soft-reset and uninstall it again, for reasons unknown
Upgrading
- Install new CAB
- Soft-reset
"What's this Enabled (Inactive) status?
It means another application is running that needs this chipset feature. For example, Windows Media Player, YouTube, Camera, etc. As soon as you exit all of those, GfxBoost should re-activate itself.
"I see no difference Q_Q"
If there's a visible difference depends completely on the application you are running and what you are doing with it (aside from it possibly just not working for you). The more graphical an application is, the more chance you have this makes a difference. I've seen no differences with normal "GDI" style applications (normal apps), but for example on my Kaiser the difference in Manila 2D is enormous.
"What about this video-running-in-the-background-thing I keep reading about?"
If done properly, that has the same effect as GfxBoost. Just not as easy and it doesn't think about other applications that need this chipset feature.
bla bla Coreplayer bla bla
Exactly!

If everybody who uses this buys me a beer, I will be a very happy and/or drunk Chainfire. Please make this happen. See the link in my signature - it's not there for decoration!
Release
Yarr, it r here!
If you are updating GfxBoost, please first "Disable" and "Exit/OK" GfxBoost! Don't forget to soft-reset after installing the new CAB!
There are multiple downloads here, the GfxBoost.cab is the (now old) 0.7, the other are the new 1.1 and 1.2 service versions. Note that in the service versions, the settings panel is under Settings -> System, not under Programs!
You only need to install ONE of these. Older versions are only still available because they work for some people while the newer does not (and vice versa). Do not forget to soft-reset after installation, waiting a minute or two, then opening the Start -> Settings -> System -> GfxBoost and clicking Enable!
(Downloads < 1.1: 3820, 2043 old 0.7)
great job as always Chainfire!
keep up the good work
OWO ChainFire is developing the Holy Grail of the Qualcomm processors!
Ha ! I found you, you're quick as always... Just got the time to express an idea and you've already done all the theory and the app is on the way...
Glad to see it led somewhere.
I was wondering where have u been so long. Looks like u have done a good job, as always. Thanks.
Nice to see you back, with a boom like always
Insane ! You have a nag for improving our lives a lot with very complex improvements. I don't think I fully understand what this does, the thought creating it hurts my brain, Thanks a lot
Mr Burns: Excellent!
With nueDynamicClock hopefully getting o/clocking and a graphics boost, my Diamond will take to the skies! Hopefully...
Another great project, thanks!
So you're forcing the backbuffer to draw to screen, Is that right?
It are the released!
Wow I think it works on my TP, switching albums in tf3d seems smoother. I made an Icon for the ocasion hope you like it, 12

Awesome works on VGA can't wait for the rating to be there..
Nice! Going to try it out now
Excellent app.just what have been needing.works great on my kaiser qvga.
thank you.

lohtse
Cool app.
I can't wait to see it with more information displayed within the app though. Like which actors played which characters and the trivia and goofs and that such.
Keep up the good work.
awsome!
dude,
Great job..its quite simple and fast !
i was looking for something smiler, coz no app as my knowledge does that in our lovely WM, I have the reader with IMDB data base, but for the new movies what shall we do !!!
anyway, I think if will add more info, i mean every thing should be shown in the app it self will be more than perfect, and also i think the most info is this :
1-User Rating
2-Plot
3-Genre
4-Actors
But, dude, thanks again and may god bless you
see you in next version bro!
Great App. Thanks.
Ya think Steve Jobs will try to restrict use of iPhone API's?
I applaud you for releasing the source code. Have you considered creating a Google Code project for this?
Blade0rz, many thanks for this really nice application to tap into IMDB's vast resources. Like shabek, I look forward to additional info especially Ratings, Plot/Sypnosis and Ratings. One comment is that I noticed the image aspect ration is distorted. WOuld be great if we can have the correct image aspect ration for posters and actors. Thanks again and I will be tracking this daily
app runs good on my omnia i910. it would be great to have a synopsis of movie and ability to select the actor and have their info come up. also, i cannot go back once i pull up a movie. i have to close the app and reopen it again and perform another search.
this is a great idea and thanks for contributing it. i look forward to future releases
Nice app, it works on my Rhodium WVGA, but has some problems installing.
When installed (I can't choose to put it on my phone or external memory), I can't find it in the thumbnails. To open the program, I have to search it in my Explorer (my machine / Program Files / IMDB Mobile).
It also has some minor problems with the landscape; I can type, but it doesn't respond on the 'enter' command and the pictures are stretched to halfway my screen. The text doesn't go to fullscreen either, only to halfway.
The landscape thing is not a biggy (especially since it's the first beta and you cracked the iPhone program), but am I the only one who's having the installing problem?
But besides this, a great app! It's the #1 app I've been searching for lately and I'm very thankful that you've been putting effort in making it!
[edit]
I've noticed where the installing problem is. When you instal the app, it sends the shortcut to the folder "Windows / Start Menu". Maybe it's because I've got the official Dutch 6.5 ROM, but my programs are in "Windows / Startmenu".
Thanks Mate , very Nice , works like a charm
At the moment,its more of a proof of concept more than anything. I have implemented Plot, Tagline, Directors, Writers, Rating so far from the movie details.
The API also contains data for Quotes, Cast, Trivia, etc so all of those will eventually be implemented.
The app isnt a port of the iPhone one, it just uses the same data. Any interface issues are my fault
Hopefully should have a fully functional beta by the end of the week
can't wait buddy!

wll it play mp4 smoothly?
no match with coreplayer....
And with this the suposed "TCPMP 0.81" release is history
Great release! Skin looks great (and I didn't notice frame drop while playing)! Just needs to have a stop and a mute button (maybe the speaker image in the landscape view... needs to be added to portrait). Can't wait until we get it for the playlist and file browser!
Only thing I notice is when you press the video "window" it goes to fullscreen but doesn't start playing automatically. Also the bottom system "taskbar" doesn't redraw after skin is applied (if you didn't have a skin at launch and apply it using the browser in the player the bottom system "taskbar" will still be the one from the old TCPMP). But it's just tiny things (should be easy to fix).
About language.tgz could you add two more variants to the possible wma and wmv dlls? At least in my ROM (official WinMo 6.1 ROM from Samsung) and other WinMo 6.1 they're:
* wmv9decoder.dll
* wma9prodecoder.dll
Congrats and thanks for all the hard work!
PS: Noticed it has a skin selector. But can it revert to classic view (no skin) whithout deleting the skin file (or reg value)?
Thanks for share, great news for TCPMP lovers (the best audio/video player for Windows Mobile - my opinion).
Thanks again

Great release! Skin looks great (and I didn't notice frame drop while playing)! Just needs to have a stop and a mute button (maybe the speaker image in the landscape view... needs to be added to portrait).

Well I must admit that my photoshop skills aren't very good so we need someone to volunteer and make official skin for tcpmp. I would be glad to provide info on how to make it.

oh about that, the original sources offered the mechanism for skin support (and were meant only for main screen), but original developers removed sourcecode which would parse skin file load the skin and handle screen taps. So I've reimplemented that functionality using common sense with minimal changes to core components of program. To make whole interface skinnable it would involve to dig into core components and perhaps make program slower, this scenario isn't very attractive

Will fix the fullscreen taping behavior
About the bottom taskbar, restart of application is needed when skin is loaded

Yes it can revert to clasic by pressing skin... then cancel
Wow, this is great news! Thank you for your work on this.
One thing though -- will the AVRCP plugin work with this? Bluetooth music control is really a killer function for me.
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-avrcp-control-plugin-v0-6-alpha-for-tcpmp-0-72rc1.html
thanks!
All .plg plugins should work with this version, those addons wich consists of midified common.dll interface.plg player.exe etc. might work but will result in missing features of this build such as working equalizer, subtitles and skin support and this is the case for avrcp addon. In order to make it work in this build the sourcecode is needed.
I bet there will be new gfx for this (I think ppl have been dying for skins in TCPMP). Also the xml seems easy enough to understand to make new themes just by playing with it (though it lack stop and mute buttons).
About the other elements skinning all we need is a bigger (more touch friendly) playlist editor, browser (bigger folder/media files icon... stuff like that)... Maybe tweak them a bit (custom scrollbar, backgound color/image, font size/color... if possible). That's really what I meant.
About AVRCP I'm afraid it won't work... It was built into interface.plg and some lang files...
However the author xiaojin1985 uses this forum so he could be contacted. Also he has the code (or part of it) a his homepage.

Well I found a basic TCPMP PocketScrobbler function source a while back (but it's somewhat old... don't know if it works...). I uploaded it to the usual place
Thanks for this!
looks good.. i will spread the word 4 you on 1800pocketpc
TCPMP is alive...
Thanks.
Here is some info on how to make skin for tcpmp
Attached files Info.txt (explained syntax, keywords and functionalities)
SkinExample.zip a good example on what can be done (this skin was adapted for tcpmp by original developers, skin images was used in PocketMVP player and credits for this skin belongs to Marcelo A. García González)
For those who have tried this app how is the playback speed of this build
are there any noticeable speed changes in flv playback?
Hi bro,can I help you for adding AVRCP support?
About AVRCP
Yes ofcourse, any help is appreciated. As i can see your addon consists of modified interface.plg and some aditional lang files. So the best way, I guess it would be to apply your changes into interface sources of this build. pm me or for further details.

I changed the playback from direct draw to raw video buffer, and it plays flv videos really well for me.
Edit: GAPI seems to be the best setting. I benchmarked a .flv video dumped from youtube with the four driver choices: direct draw (25%), Raw Frame Buffer (95%), GAPI (145%) and GDI (80%). The GAPI driver had the highest average speed, and clearly looked the best. This is on a fuze (Raphael) with 6.5.5 (23529). Changing the buffer size and switching to microdrive in settings didn't do anything.
Hi ,thanx for your great work !
I can t download the src code from windows live, i don t know why !
