Evening all,
(Apologies if this is in the wrong place)
My dad's recently got himself a GPS (cheapy from ebay) which is running window CE, I'm trying to get it to play some films but really not having any luck, never used windows CE before there's is a media player already but wondered if this can be update to maybe play the files? Just really looking for some advice. Thanks Dave

Several players for Windows (Embedded) CE available, ex.
TCPMP (both freeware and payware version)
Fortuna ( a rewrite of TCPMP )
Shinco ( a rewrite of TCPMP )
CEPlayer
Windows Media Player (esp. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=556270 )
Theirs development all was stopped years ago!
Probably you'll have to install a DirectX-driver (ex. GAPI for HPC) too. And be aware, the aspect ratio of a GPS-device's screen resolution
320x240
480x234
480x272
640x480
800x480
never matches that of a MPEG-2 video
720×576 PAL MPEG-2 a little bit wider than 4:3, 16:9 anamorph
720×480 NTSC MPEG-2 a little bit wider than 4:3, 16:9 anamorph
704×576 PAL MPEG-2 4:3, 16:9 anamorph
704×480 NTSC MPEG-2 4:3, 16:9 anamorph
hence you always firstly have to convert a given MPEG-2 video.
Hi,
There is one Video player which I found the best.
Search google for voPlayer for WinCE.
I'm using it and it works great.

I have one of the newer Ford F150 OEM'ish looking radios. [chinese]
Think mine has 2 OS's
The GPS runs separately from units proprietary wince. The GUI for radio/cd/dvd part looks totally unlike anything i've ever seen.
Currently, running the media player embedded in the iGo Primo GPS software. I'd like a "better" media center, but don't wanna risk f**king somthing up. I dunno where an installed app would even appear

Your unit indeed consists of 2 IC mainboards: one holding and running WinCE / navigation software ( iGO ), the other is the MCU. Hence the unit has 2 SD-card slots, one for GPS maps, one for music/video.
If you install a WindowsCE app, it is copied either onto unit's internal storage memory ( Flash Disk ) or onto unit's external storage memory ( SD-card ). Depends on your choice.
BTW: Never heard before that iGO comes with a media player embedded.

I haven't mess'd with CE in 10 years....and have never used iGo. So this new radios full of "all kinds of unknowns"
I'd just like to have a full featured Media-Player
YOUR file: Un-zipped and placed "folder" [un-opened] on root of SD [the music one - not GPS]. Explorer can see the folder, which contains .exe
Not seeing anything in GUI menu that shows anything new. I did then, dbl clicked on the .exe.....nothing happened
I dunno......maybe you can't enter or mess with root ?
Yes, you can have an iGO skin (ex. Dimka skin) that lets you run an external application such as a mediaplayer. Obviously OEM has utilised such a skin. If I know it right then in Dimka skin the additional menu of start of external programs is opened by long click on button Menu in a navigation mode ...
You probably will see your issue isn't Windows CE related, but iGO. Ask the iGO specialists for help.

INSTALLED SETUP YADDA YADDA YADDA doesnt recognize alot of music files in my music folder for example i have 10 files from ace frehley only took 6 as recognized left out other 4 im sure its a good app but until it can recognize all songs not worth the trouble uninstalling
I've been using Audiogalaxy for a couple months now. I love it. I have almost 200 gigs of music, and its really convenient to have it with me anywhere. I'll get the occasional skip on 3G or edge, but its absolutely perfect on wifi.

so how do u get it to actualy recognize all 200gigs of music I doubt it recognises every single song and if it does howd u do that
Why would it need to recognise the songs ???
It takes every music that you tell it too and allow you to listen to it anywhere while your computer is on and connected to the internet
I'm using it with 120GB of music and it even work with messed up names and japanese ones...

I have too. It's really convenient.
But is there any way to have a cache/offline listening?
Open source?
I was wondering if this is an open source project. I was thinking of implementing some more codecs to the app or have custom bit rate support based on the type of network you're using.
Is there something similar to audiogalaxy for UNIX system?
i have 70ish gigs of music, i have no need for a mp3 player or ipod now, this app is amazing, klyentel are you taking donations? let me know.

edna is good but it always cut out half way through songs, even when I was on same wifi my server is on. edna dot sorceforge dot com I think.
now I use gnump3d. Very easy to setup and run as a service at boot. streams over http so you browse your library with your phone browser and it generates an m3u playlist when you click a song, or you can play all songs in a directory. browser opens up whatever ur music player is for steaming. Lets you require a password for base dir, all dirs, or none. Personally I don't use a pw just run it on an uncommon port and block all traffic other than my phone's ip with iptables or another firewall.
Great work!
By far the best interface out there... Impressive web application as well. Easily one of my favorite apps and I've only been using it for about 10 minutes. Setup was a breeze less than 2 minutes and I'm streaming my library to my phone. I would kill for a similar app that streamed my movies! TALKING MURDER HERE!
Keep up the good work!
Can it RANDOM play a playlist ?

Have you tried subsonic? I use it and am very pleased with it.
So has this happened to anyone else?
You're exploring the handful of apps on your 3D that you haven't even gotten a chance to look at yet, and you find several that seem really cool, albeit a tad repetitive (here I'm thinking Dock, Media Share, Connected Media..etc.) and you think "wow, awesome, I can stream movies from this phone to my other devices" or "wow, awesome, I can transfer HDMI video from this phone to other devices"....
..and then you realize that to do ANY of these cool things, you'll need either for the other device (e.g., your PC) to be DLNA compatible, or else you'll need to go out and buy an HDMI cord...or else a docking station.
I guess this post is 1/2 complaint and 1/2 question, but to be fair I should ask the question before I complain too much: do I HAVE to have a DLNA/HDMI cable/Dock station to do some/most of these cool functions? I mean obviously I can copy/paste files onto other devices--or even doing so wirelessly using bluetooth, Samba, etc..---but it seems like the coolest functions all require stuff I don't have, and I guess I'm especially confused about DLNA since my laptop is a dell from last September...seems new enough to have supported DLNA...
Alternately, is there a workaround for DLNA? A program or device or add-on I can use to make my laptop compatible?
OK I guess that's my rant, sorry and thanks for listening...
I'm no DLNA expert, but I think that any PC/Laptop running Windows that has WIFI can support DLNA, I'm pretty sure its just a matter of having the software.
Also you should be able to send data to your TV through a XBOX 360 or Playstation 3, I believe they both support DLNA.

All you have to do to make your computer work with DLNA is to go into windows media player, make sure WMP is in full screen, then in the tool bar click stream, then make sure "allow remote control of my player" is selected, and "automatically let devices play my media" is selected. then click" more streaming options" and see if there are any devices found, then make sure none are blocked. Now your done.
EDIT: make sure your all your devices are on the same wifi network for this to work

Scotbot this is great! Now I can stream my media from my phone to my windows media player--very nice! I followed your steps, and then went into media share and enabled certain folders to be shared, and voila!
I guess the only better thing would be if I could actually use "Connected Media" to share with WMP--b/c then the phone would be the controller from what I understand. As it is, Media Share simply lets WMP access my phone, but Connected Media actually lets me play a movie on my phone that then automatically streams to other devices...I'm guessing that actually requires legit DLNA...?
Thanks for the post! I can now send 2D videos and photos to my laptop and my Samsung LCD TV! Works great!!!
Has anyone else seen the press release about Samsungs new android compatible optical drive. It looks like it could be the thing that allows me to ditch the laptop once and for all but one thing concerns me. The press release says:
" Through its AV connectivity mode, the drive is also ideal for Tablet PC users that want to view or hear content from a disc."
It looks to me like it won't be a fully functioning r/w DVD drive. Calling it AV mode implies it will only allow you to view media files, and not actually use it looked a proper drive.
Any views?

Sounds extremely old-fashioned and unnecessary. I havnt used optical drives for... I think its 5 years now.
Flashdrives is far superior in every. single. way.
But you can't rip a CD or DVD with a flash drive. When I buy music I still want a physical medium because I don't like being beholden to music sites. Also, living in a rural area my broadband is too slow for streaming video, so DVD is still format of choice for buying films.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium
I always download a copy of whatever I buy. If, for some very strange reason, I need to rip something, I got 3 laptops that can do that just fine :d
I cant stand the sound of a DVD reader, the constant disc-swapping, the bulkiness of the dvd discs, the risk of getting scratches on it rendering the dvd unusable (not that I have ever scratched a single dvd/cd though, but I know a lot of people who have lol).
Ok so some people (like you) still uses cd/dvd discs but... I really cant see why you would want that on a tablet? It kinda defeats half the purpose of a tablet - mobility.
Ever tried to move a cd/dvd reader while its working (not talking portable ones here)? It will most certainly lose focus on what it was reading. And even portables will lose focus if you give them a slight tap, or move them too fast...
A flashdrive, on the other hand, can be thrown into a wall while working, without losing focus (If we ignore the chance of it coming lose and just focus on the impact force).
Aaaanyyyyywayyyyy... This wasnt ment to be a rant-post, even though it turned out like that... Sorry, I'll leave this thread now and leave it to people who are interested in old-fashioned media :d
I refer back to the fact that rural broadband is useless for downloading copies of anything, I wouldn't use it on the move (I would want it just to rip copies of things).
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I can't remember when was the last time I actually use the DVD-drive.. I have PC running windows 7 with the latest super multi DVD drive...but... I haven't really use it these days.. Everything these days uses USB memory stick, I use it in my car, use it for my TV, use it for my PC and use it for my TF101..
BUT.... still it's a great news if our TF101 can run this external DVD-drive somehow.. it added the feature and functionality to this already awesome TF101.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA Premium HD app
I agree about not using optical disks as much anymore. There are only two things left that I use my DVD drive for. Ripping my movies when I buy a new disk so I can keep them all on my NAS, and burning photo DVDs for my clients (wedding photography).
Unfortunately, neither of those things will be changing until something better than current media formats comes around. Movies still come on disk (unless you want to by choked by excessive DRM) and optical discs are still more stable for long term storage than flash drives. Given that, I can understand why some folks might still want an optical drive option. I could hook the drive up to my tablet and demo the images direct from the DVD I'm about to give a client.
Pffffft...

This app is just amazing, I have made a server on plex for my 1tb hard drive and can easily watch movies on my nexus 10 from any where. At home, I just connect the n10 to my tvand stream the movies from the plex server to my n10 through WiFi which then shows it on my HD TV. The cool part is that I use my nexus 4 as plex remote through the app
$5 app, but totally worth it

I completely agree. It's a fantastic application. Bought it a long time ago and it continues to receive updates. One of the best apps you can drop money on!

Huh? Unless OP works for Plex or gets a commission on the whopping $5 the app costs he's most likely sharing something s/he finds useful with others which is more than anyone can say about your snarky retort. Plex happens to be a great tool for sharing video over your network or for accessing your network via Wi-Fi or 3/4G while traveling. For the latter it transcodes based on the available bandwidth. It's also pre-installed on LG TVs and is certified to run on Samsung SmartTVs. You can also share your media library (and vice versa) with friends that use Plex.
Here are some pics of it on an N2 and a link to a discussion in their forum.

I haven't tried plex but I'd imagine it has hardware decoding that works fine, but if I'm not mistaken its just a light client. With XBMC you're getting the full XBMC that you get on the desktop or whatever other platform. Having said that I haven't run it on my nexus 10 yet and I'm not sure if there's a build with hardware accel for it but there probably is one out there (Unfortunately the xbmc.org build does not have it), but I run a build on my android g-box midnight tv box and it works great.
XBMC works great on the N10, the recently released Archos Video also runs great but is a little light on configurability, they're actively working on it though.

Plex is great. aMPdroid with Media Portal is good too, and free. Plex is much easier to setup and better for sharing with other people. Roku's even have a Plex app for accessing your media servers. The upside of aMPdroid is you can use external players, and it's free. If I didn't want to share my media with anyone I would stick with aMPdroid because Media Portal is much better on desktop/HTPC than Plex, using external players is very useful, and remote access can be done through secure vpn etc. You can access files remotely with aMPdroid just like Plex, and even stream TV, it is just harder to setup for your friends and family, and there is no iOS support.

guys take a look at the new mizuu beta it's just awesome. i'm using it with the mx player and it just works great...
...is finally into Windows Phone marketplace. But currently (at the moment I`m writing this) is a closed beta, available for those who was fast enough to sing yourself up on this form here (expired for now).
I was not able to participate in the right time so I have no access to the beta. But the people who have says that the main problem is that the app produces no sound at all so you can`t listen music with it right now and there was also mentioned problems with HD video, people saying there was graphical artifacts and glitches when playing 30 megabytes 1080p video (with no sound of cource).
Anyway, I want to being able to test it myself so if you`re a participated tester and your WP device has support for an SD-cards and that card is installed, please PM me.
no sound for lumia 520
I was able to install it via the "Download and install manually" link, putting the file on the SD card, and then going Store -> AppBar -> Install local apps (on the phone). I backed it on Kickstarter though, so maybe that's why it worked for me? In any case, I'm not sure it's worth the space right now; there's no audio!

There's no audio cause they didn't integrate with SystemMediaTransportControls.
In fact, i think they just compiled the windows 8 version on ARM, changed the UI a bit and called it an app.

Tried to install it that way, app has appeared into list of the apps I "can" install, after clicking Install all, I got Installing... and then Permissions error.

There is no xap for this app. There is only appx (you can see on the marketplace page that app is only supports Windows Phone 8.1). I have a content of that appx but this is outdated version. I can`t even reproduce an appx because I`m running Windows 7 x86 (with xap packets I can, it`s easier).
So if anyone would share an appx it will be great. If you`re one of the testers, PM me for instructions how to made one.

Have !
not impressed
how long have we been waited for this much celebrated application? it doesn't even run in the background, the second I leave the app the music stops playing, not to mention its very buggy such as playing music stutters
what is all this fuss about vlc media player?
thumbs down
It's (as the "v" part of the name implies) primarily a video player; presumably they didn't prioritize having a background agent for something where the main use case is foreground. I imagine they'll add the background agent when that makes it to the top of the priority list for this still *very much in-development* application...
It can be used both for streaming media and for locally-stored media, and it can decode just about anything. For file formats that the built-in player doesn't support (of which there are many), there was anguish for a long time about things like subtitles not showing or not synching properly with video or audio. VLC, at least on the PC, is really good about handling things like that correctly.
As a side note, have you considered the fact that you're badmouthing an early, not-yet-public beta (if it's even beta-stage yet) of a free and open source application port to a platform that its compiler couldn't even target when the project was started? For <REDACTED> sake, if you don't want to use it, nobody is forcing you to. If you actually want to know what VLC is all about, maybe you should try actually using a released version of it... Do you even have it *installed* on your PC, let alone ever use it? Who is this "we" that you claim have been waiting for this app? I'm having a really hard time believing you backed the Kickstarter...
Seriously, it's not even close to release quality; that's why it *isn't released yet*. This version doesn't mean anything except that they got the bloody thing to *compile*, which is a pretty major accomplishment when you consider it's all written in MSVC-incompatible native code and that when they started the port, GCC didn't know how to target Win32/ARM *or* how to compile C++/CX or anything else WinRT-related. The way I see it, it's pretty impressive that the app works at all, for all that I was expecting it a bit sooner than this if it was going to arrive at all.
Is MKV supported on Windows Phone?
Haven't yet tried, though if it supported on Win8 PCs it should be supported on WP8 as well.

MKV is supported via Xbox Video on the phone side. On Windows 10, MKV is built into the OS, no codecs needed.
I heard they were adding it, but didn't think it was available already. The phone can decode MKV out of the box? Does that include any subtitle support?

MKV aka Matroska (Russian Матрёшка, the wooden doll with the small dolls of decreasing size placed one inside the other) is a media container format, no codecs (i.e. coders/decoders) needed at all, just a proper parser.
And MKV container is NOT supported out of the box, according to Microsoft.

You need to frequent Windows Central more...
Xbox Video on the latest update will accept the MKV container, but I have no clue about subtitle support.

They only teased Windows Media Player playlist with an MKV file and some music in FLAC. Blogs say that the formats will be "fully supported", but we will see the outcome of it in the Windows 10 [Consumer Preview?] launch come roughly January 21st.
In my last post, I meant to say no codec pack needed, which most people use to add misc. containers, codecs, and the rest of that decode/demux mess (which I tend to do, because it can be daunting to do by hand for one or two formats I might need.)
