A light-weight application that provides access to media streams directly - eliminating the requirement for a (flash-enabled) mobile browser.
Requires a QVGA, VGA or WVGA device running Windows Mobile Professional (Pocket PC) 6.0 or higher (see the additional requirements below).
http://www.skynetsoftware.com/myPlayer
Features:
> Choose your own media player - define how each stream is played (CorePlayer v1.3.6 is recommended‡)
> Full streaming integration - browse the content as you would from any other supported device
> Extensive TV feed index - hundreds of live TV feeds from around the globe
> Live Radio stations - a selection of International broadcasts
> Custom TV / Radio stations - add your favourites
* CorePlayer is required to watch the high quality live TV channels (please use this config.xml for the best experience)
Requirements:
> A media player that supports RTSP streaming and the mpeg4 codec (CorePlayer v1.3.6 is recommended‡)
> The .NET 2.0 Compact Framework (which is bundled with Windows Mobile Professional 6.0 and above)
‡ HTC's bundled StreamingPlayer and Windows Media Player should also work for users with faster devices (for example the HTC HD2)
*** Whilst streaming video this application will use a considerable amount of bandwidth - please ensure you use it via an unlimited data policy ***
User feedback is always appreciated and should help to improve the usability of future releases.
myPlayer is an independent application and is in no way endorsed by or affiliated with any other content provider.
Latest version: 2.300
Thanks i am testing now trying to watch two pints of larger and a packet of crisps
*** Updated to version 0.2a ***
Change list:
-Menus are now displayed correctly on a 3G connection
-Some other minor tweaks
Works great on a Polaris. Also useable on a Blackstone WVGA. No problems at all and nice to have the standalone application outside of a browser. Only used wifi - can't afford data streaming.
Thank you much!
Any chance of WVGA version?

Yes, I am aware of that version. In some ways craftyb's app inspired me to create the myPlayer app.
This application is a more light-weight alternative (approx 50kb at the time of writing). I tried the iPlayer app on my Kaiser but it didn't like it very much. The stream quality was a little too high - so the video playback was a bit choppy.
myPlayer uses the low bit rate streams which are served via the BBC iPlayer mobile site. The 3G stream in particular is a very low bit rate. It is also QVGA friendly
The intention is to provide an iPlayer service for those using older Windows Mobile devices.

Yep, that is something I will be working on in the near future. I'll probably use the extra space to display more detailed programme information.
I'm also looking in to the behaviour of the app when the screen orientation changes from portrait to landscape.

I've tried them both and myPlayer is much much faster on Blackstone almost instant in fact. With iPlayer you have to wait for the file to download which takes a long time. Also iPlayer is 914kb whereas myPlayer is 52.6kb.
ok guys ! Thanks for the answer I will try so your version FryWalker
Thanks again !

How will you do that from France? Thought it only works from UK IP addresses or do you have a trick up your sleeve?
Thanx Fry. Works great! (XDA Orbit 2 / Polaris)
This is excellent. I have been struggling for 2 days trying to get iPlayer working on my HTC Trinity with FinixNOver 3.4 ROM.
Playback with Coreplayer is very smooth and your application lightweight.
1. Tried the other iPlayer app and it just would not work properly at all on the Trinity.
2. Tried to get the Opera/HTC Streaming Media solution working but could never get any pucture displayed although sound worked okay (although the sound quality was poor). Also getting to the iPlayer click to play page on Opera 9.5 is quite slow and cumbersome.
3. Tried Skyfire which worked but it was slow and the picture playback was not continuous. Also it is not possible to display the picture in full screen landscape mode.
I only seem to be able to select Catch Up View at the moment, are the other options still being developed?
Once again this is an excellent application and a must have for all existing windows mobile users. I look forward to further updates.
Pros and Cons
Pros - tiny footprint, looks great
Cons - Won't work on Edge or Wifi. I don't have 3G. There is an erroe but it says I need the NCF 3.5 messages cab to read it on the next restart. I know the rom I use has NCF 3.5 installed by default.
I've included a picture of the error message.
Please assist.
Edit: Nevermind. I just read you must have an UK IP address and I'm in the good ole US of A. Please note the IP issue in the original post. I still give the program a thumbs up and would like to congratulate the developer on making a tiny and efficient program. If there is a service like the BBC link in the US I would love for this program to be compatible.

Yes, those views are currently still in development. I hope to add them to one of the next major builds - but currently I am working on improving the reliability of the 3G service.
Thanks for the feedback.

Ah yes - well spotted. You will infact have to install the NETCFv35.Messages cab extension to see the error message in detail.

Can you access any of the BBC iPlayer content from a desktop PC in the US? If so - I may investigate the possibility of extending the code for the US region.

I get the same error message. Tried installing the messages.cab but still comes up with the same message. I can see the video's to choose from but it doesnt seem to want to play them and throws the above mentioned error message back at me.
Edit: My mistake... I had coreplayer installed on my memory card so needed to update the location in the options of myPlayer. Works great! Thanks!!

Ubuntu for the HTC HD2 version 0.3
This is the new v0.3 release of Ubuntu for the HTC HD2 I announced a while ago on twitter.
Ubuntu is a full Linux distribution - and it's not designed for smartphones. But with the large touchscreen, high display resolution and fast system speed of the HTC HD2 I decided to make Ubuntu easily available to HD2 end users!
This is not a secret warez ROM proprietary junk. Source code information below ! Wiki use for contribution purposes is highly encouraged! You can find all information needed to reconstruct my builds there.
The interest seems large enough so you can expect an improved version 0.4 :
-The no-menu problem will be solved
-It will be bootable via cotulla's MAGLDR and HaRET (Handhelds Revers Engineering Tool)
beta closed!! please do not in quire any longer.
=> I am looking for people to test a 0.4 beta version soon as I'm done. If you are interested please direct message or @ me via twitter @htc_linux as I will send the beta download link there.
Features
* You can get online using 3G and WiFi
* Attach all kinds of USB devices like mice, keyboards, flash drives, card readers, networking devbices, etc. to turn your HD2 into a full PC
* Use full desktop like web browser without the usual limitations found in smartphone browsers
* Use instant messaging
* Watch videos
* Handle text messages and make calls (without sound so far)
* Install thousands of programs for your internet experience, office needs, social networking fun, etc.
* Be cooler because you have something special on your phone!
It is difficult to create a release like this as opposed to all the Android builds for the HD2.
Technical background to this:
The Linux kernel we ported to the HD2 is originally designed for use with Android user space (because we based our work on the Linux kernels of official Android devices) and Ubuntu is originally designed for large laptop or desktop computers.
This means many workarounds on kernel and user space level must be made in order to make this usable.
Despite lots of work not all problems could be tackled yet: Audio and suspend/resume do not work as of v0.3 and it is a bit tricky to navigate.

INSTALL
######
1)Extract the linux folder to the main directory(!) of your Storage Card.
If the linux folder is not located in the main directory of the Card,
it will not work.
Note: This will not touch your phone's internal memory. WinMo or other Linux/Android builds remain unchanged.
QUICKSTART
#########
1) Save all your current work and start the HaRET exectuable to boot Linux.
2) Watch the system boot up fully until you see a graphical desktop interface.
3) It is useful to set the CPU speed up for better performance. Tap the CPU speed meter in the mid of top bar.
4) Use shutdown icon in the home menu to bring the system down savely.
Enjoy!
TUTORIAL VIDEO
############
Thanks to Jaxbot for shooting this video
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES
##################
Please read the attached and included readme.txt for detailed information.
Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick basis
-optimized for our hd2 CPU
-large performance improvement
-up to date app versions
-new graphical interface
Better connectivity
-3 modes to interact via USB selectable
-file transfer and interactive shell via ADB and USB ETHERNET (ssh)
-USB HOST mode to connect thousands of peripheral devices like keyboards, mice, usb mass storage devices.
Improved drivers
-Backlight control
-Battery charging and state reading
IMPORTANT NOTES
##############
-There is a known problem with the menu not appearing so you will only see a single icon on a normal desktop instead of the fancy menu seen above. You can fix it as explained below.
-There is still no audio in calls and generally due to lack fo ALSA driver for hd2.
-The hardware keys don't work
-No screen rotation added
-The battery % can only be read via shortcut. Icon will always show low state
Please do not report these problems.
In case you are affected by the no-menu problem here is a quick fix:
Add the 'main menu' in the top panel in order to start apps:
-Tap and hold a free spot in the top panel for like 3 secs (note that the area between the left and middle icons is not free s1pace but the window picker) and release the cursor. This is supposed to simulate right click. It is a big tricky..
-A drop down menu should appear
-Select add to panel
-Drag the 'main menu' item to the panel
-You can now start programs and edit settings.
a)In settings menu select session settings and make 'Ubuntu netbook 2d' session default settings menu. Only drawback is you can't add programs to the panel in it.
b)Go to 'startup applications' and try raising the delay in seconds for nbl (netbook-launcher-efl) to start.
Let me know if you get the workaround going in case you were affected
DEVELOPERS' CORNER
################
I documented the most important stuff about 'Ubuntu for HD2' in the htc-linux wiki. With that information you can rebuild it from scratch - or implement other OS like meego, kubuntu, etc.
http://htc-linux.org/wiki/index.php?title=Ubuntu/Leo
Some parts are not yet updated to match the 0.3 status but I hope I can do it soon.
Get the Linux kernel souce code:

Update,
the app is nearly finished and currently in public beta. You may find it here: http://www.windowsphone.com/s?appid=e4a9c785-efde-4794-8663-d562724e4fbd
Hey,
I'm looking for beta testers for yet another 9GAG client for Windows Phone (8+). I know there are already plenty of clients available but none of them satisfy my demanding Actually there's only one client by Rudy Huyn (Market Link) which is quite good but keeps crashing since the last few updates. In addition it's somehow slow - I don't like that. So, I came up with another one
The app is not finished yet and still under development.
What's working?
viewing posts
viewing comments
downloading images, saving theme into the media library
sharing posts
pan and zoom (up to 25x)
rendering of extra large images (greater than 4000x4000)
What's not working (yet)?
videos
gif animations (ironically I included the gif section already )
uploading images
posting comments
all items on the start screen (screenshot 2, bookmarks working since 1.0.0.2)
up/down-voting comments/images
What's missing
license information and credits (guys who made the wallpaper, screenshot 1-6)
search
you tell me
Known bugs (so far)
double tapping a downscaled images which aspect ratio is nearly the same as the device's screen, sometimes doesn't initiate a zoom (like screenshot 11)
when there are too many replies to a comment, the client will not fetch all of them correctly
still some concurrency problems resulting in an app crash
you tell me
I attached some screenshots of the app. If you'd like to help me, just send me a PM with your LIVE e-mail address (the one you are using for the market). At the moment I'm looking for up to 10-15 testers.
I wish I could pay you for your efforts but I can't However, I will offer each beta tester a refund for the in-app purchase to remove ads (~1.5$).
During beta stage there won't be ads and if so, all in-app purchases are free during the app is published within the beta market. There won't be a "stand alone" paid version of this app.
I appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.
Yeah, Rudy Huyn app is good, but crashing (mostly on devices with 512MB RAM).
9gag app for devices with less RAM would be good. Lookin forward.

Are you sure on that? Coz actually it isn't possible. The list maps directly to a database. When you remove an item from the list, it's removed from the database automatically. I also cannot reproduce what you are saying. Is anybody else experiencing the same?
edit.
I just pushed another tiny update to the store
1.0.0.3
- submitting crash reports should work now
- added (basic) settings. choose which channel shall be displayed on the hub page and whether to start browsing channels in fullscreen or in "quick browsing mode"
- localization: en, de

Maybe it's normal but when you navigate through the two pages of channels sometimes it makes some lag, but not everytime.

I will definitely think about this feature. At the moment I don't have clue how to implement it without breaking user experience.
The problem is quite simple. The collection of items displayed in a list are fully virtualized. That means items are both loaded and rendered on demand - starting with the most recent post in a channel. It's more or less simple to initialize a channel from a specified point (last position the user left) but at that time I don't know anything about the ancestor items (posts). In the end the list, which is shown to you, will start at the last position you left and you won't be able slide left to view newer posts. The only solution which currently comes to my mind is to load a channel from the beginning and skipping all items until I reach the one you viewed last time. Of course I can do this but it's a damn waste of resources (CPU, memory and traffic).
As said, I will think about this one. But not now

Well, it shouldn't be normal
Just to make sure I get your point. You're talking about the list view and fullscreen view of a channel? The lag occures when you switch between those two views?
An Italian translation would be great but at the moment I need to finish the app first. Afterwards I could provide you with a list of strings
Starting to test it tommorow
ok tried a lot and no more lag , never! I think there was some bloatware running on the phone.
about the "resume last post" I'm not a dev but I understand to fix... I prefer your app over other's becuase it's faster, if I have to choose between "resume" and speed, the second one is better!!!
good job!

As I told you in the Email, great app.
Here are some ideas to make the app better:
1. For the channels icon you can take the latest picture from tha cahnnel (you can make it refresh every time the app starts or sth. like that)
2. Resume from the last picture you saw in the channel. That means when I'm watching a channel and than go back to the menu and watch other channel and wann go back to the previous channel so that I musn't start watching from the latest picture but there will be a pop up window or sth like that so I will be able to choose if I want resume or start new session.
3. When I tap on the picture there is always some free space under tha picture (see in the attachments "screen 1.png"). It looks really crappy so you should remove it.
That's all till now I will tell you when I found sth.

@shoputer:
like to help you with beta testing, wrote you a PM with details
A lot of mobile sites, like Mashable.com , implements an article-hiding feature, so as to force people to click "continue reading" before it shows the full article.
Another example is those multi-slide articles / Listicles, that force you to click "Right" for every short paragraph.
Can ad-blockers disable such a feature on websites? Would be great if it can work on both Android and Windows 10 Desktop too.
Thank you!

Screen capture and recording software for Windows and Mac. Quickly get images and videos. Start your free trial today!
www.techsmith.com
I use it everyday, it's SO useful to "show people stuff"
Most people use the snipping tool or built in screen shotter but SnagIt is 100x more useful. Worth every penny.

For screen capture I prefer shareX

ShareX is a free and open source program that lets you capture or record any area of your screen and share it with a single press of a key. It also allows uploading images, text or other types of files to many supported destinations you can choose from.

OneNote. I use it on every device so it syncs my notes, things I need to know for work like Modem keys, etc, passwords, all kinds of things. When I copy/pasted the specs on this rig, I did it off One Note

Open-Shell is much better, free open source and more feature rich, I use it since day zero.
And you can use it along with Fluent-Metro skin for the ultimate awesomeness.
Definitely Private Win10. I can't use windows without it.
And few others: Notepad++, VSCodium, HostsMan + hosts
Definitely internet download manager, winrar nd notepad++
+1 Notepad++
qBittorrent, and VLC Media Player... see where I am going with this? :')
Buzzkill. It gets rid of unwanted notifications. Not turn them off for an app completely, only ones with keywords you provide.
There are definitely some good choices represented here but I'm taking us in the way-back machine to the basics.
notepad.exe
mspaint.exe
There are certainly more robust equivalents for each of those, but for a PC admin documenting stuff without access to Internet or other resources, each of those have been at the ready every time for decades, and paint has a few tricks up its sleeve. Sin qua non for constancy and reliability.
