my comp won't let me download real pocket player. any other apps that will work?
anyone else having a problem installing realone player for PPC? i've tried both the regular and beta version, and on 2 computers both giving the same error that I need to install ActiveSync 3.1 or later. I have ActiveSync 4.1 on both of my PCs and I keep getting the error. my Activesync is working fine. I copied the executable file to my 8125 but it can't run/installed like that. any ideas?
thx
bump

Guys, if you don't want to install additional software, you can add your PPC as a device to RealPlayer and sync Real files to play on WM10.
When I try to install it Im getting a message...
Realoneplayerppc is not a valid pocket pc applicatiopn

'cause you're supposed to run that file on your desktop not the phone.
I installed Real player through AS 4.1 with no problems. Great for bbc radio broadcasts.
I got it installed and it wont play the file! Ah well. Do I need to convert it somehow?
On the BBC radio site where is has a link that says listen using stand alone real player, right click and copy that link to your wizard. Clicking on that file should open real player and begin to play your broadcast.
Will it not play videos though? I want it to play my south park vids
RealPlayer Link
Here is the link to download the CAB file so you can install Realplayer on your WM5 device without activesync.
http://www.savefile.com/files.php?fid=7160593
Copy the file to your Pocket PC and click on it to install.
CAB files within the exe file
If you start to use the realplayer executable file while connected through Activesync but do not complete the install process ie while the install screen is still open go to
START/RUN and type %TMP%
This will open the install directory. Look for a sub dir call ~rmsetup. Within that sub directory you will find the REALPLAYER.CAB file you need. Just copy into your temp directory on wizard and run as usual. It works for both the basic Realplayer and Realplayer with video beta downloadable from their site.
Hope I've explained it clearly enough.
There is also an explanation of how to make the exe file work with activesysnc on the Realplayer forum but I found the above solutions easier.

I cannot play any radio station "media player" format because the "buffer" stays at 0%. After I open an URL media player connect and start to buffer but stays at 0% .
Did anybody encounter this
Cheers
ROM version 2.17
Radio 2.7.10
I have the same problem. I was able to listen but now it will not buffer anymore and its just stuck. anyone one who can help us out with the issue.
are you using ORB by any chance and having this problem? or is with any streaming audio file?
Have you tried GSPlayer?

i am using orb and have this problem is there a fix for it?
What ports do you have forwarded? OR What ports do you have setup in Orb to stream your content? Have you tried over WiFi?
Try this:
[HKLM\System\FileSys]
"TempPath"="\SD-MMC Card\Temp"
[HKCU\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Preferences]
"DownloadCache"="\SD-MMC Card\Temp"
Replace "\SD-MMC Card\Temp" with you own path.
Cheers

Forgive my ignorance , I am a begineer. Do I need to add these lines to the registry?
I used total commander and couldn't see the :
""DownloadCache"="\SD-MMC Card\Temp"
or
""TempPath"="\SD-MMC Card\Temp"
Thanks for your help
PS: Media player was working before I upgraded to 2.17
Cheers
First get PHM regedit (google for it)
And yes you will have to create keys and values yourself.
(hope you know the diff. between a Key and a Value?)
The values are of type string.
"\SD-MMC Card" is my SD/MMC memory card inserted into the device.
Your device can have another name for the card. Replace "\SD-MMC Card" with the directory name of your device.
Hope it helps.

i am not using orb. i am listening to a local radio station with wmplayer. it did play before i added other software. have anyone tried real pplayer? do they work fine?
real player works fine. The problem is that some radio/TV stations support only MS media player
i tried to d/l the real player mobile edition. it keeps telling me ti activesync. you guys have the same problem.
Download the .exe from the website to your desktop
-Double-click on the .exe
]Do not click next, instead go to Start->Run-> and type %TMP% go to the folder ~rn_setup and pull the .cab file out of the directory.
-Copy the .cab to the MDA
-Double click on the .cab file using File Explorer on the MDA and it will install the app
Hi all,
Having a spot of trouble trying to install anything onto my MDA Vario, I generally search for WM5 software/games and everytime I try to install I get this message.
XXXXX is not a valid pocket PC application
Any clues?
Thanks
Sounds like your installing an exe that needs to be installed via pc using activesync. You can download activesync from the M$ website. The latest version is 4.2 as far as i know.
If you are downloading exe files, try opening them on the pc first. Most of the exe files are installation files that need to be executed from the computer. Some, very few, are actually compiled executables that only have to be copied to the PPC and run from there.
You will also come across CAB files. These files are my preference because you just copy them to the PPC and execute it there, and it installs the files right on the PPC.
Had a problem running activesync, it used to loop my pc when I attached the device. Since then I reinstalled XP Pro OS and reinstalled activesync (probably old version conflicting)
It now works a treat and loads up all my software!
Many thanks
I am looking for a way to sync ical with my tasks and appointments on my phone. Ive found software online and whatnot, but nothing for 5.0. anyone know of anything? I would really appreciate it.
Missing Sync for Windows Mobile
I'm using Missing Sync for Windows Mobile on my OS X MBP. It works great and you can install .cab applications with it as well. Unfortunately you still need a windows machine/install to install the .exe stuff but I've found most software vendors for PPC apps supply a .cab install option now as well.

cool ill track down a PC and try it out. THanks!
You won't need a PC to install Missing Sync, it's a Mac universal binary. What I was speaking of are applications for the PPC device that require you to run an executable on a host PC (windows) to then install the application on to your device. However I just found this on another forum and I think I'm going to give it a try.
File Juicer - one of the features is "Extract CAB files from Pocket PC self installing EXE files" once you have the .cab you can install the application via missing sync.

oh I think i found this once, but 40$ and no trial scared me...
I am looking for any converter that can convert RM/RMVB to be a pocket PC playable format. It could also be one that just simply compress the bitrate of the original RM/RMVB file and output a smaller-size RM/RMVB (since I have realplayer installed in my pocket PC). Thanks in advace.

1. get the CAB at http://www.winmobiletech.com/sekalaiset/realplayer.cab and install it
2. read http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=344&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 before you start trying to listen to streamed contents
This is pretty much the same as how I install it. Let me know if you have trouble installing the CAB. But anyone knows the answer to my original post questions?

hello i hav got an htc touch hd. I tried to put an movie clip on the htc but when i do it goes that you have to run the application first then open the fike witihin the application but WMP doesnt play this file. Its a movie clip file. it also doesnt work with films.
please read the sticky thread!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446366
you need codecs to play divx xvid and some other formats wmp doesnt support!
some programs like Coreplayer and TCMP play the most popular video formats
how do i get these programs to run on my htc?
Just download and install them!
If its an .exe setup then make sure you have your phone connected via activesync, run the setup on your pc and then just follow the instructions
if its a .cab setup, connect your phone via activesync or drive mode and copy/paste the cab on the phone. Then disconnect the phone from the pc if you used the drive mode and just locate the .cab file and run it!
that simple
so i install them like normal on my comp and then sync them to the phone? ps im a rookie with smartphones.
Easiest way is to download de .cab file, transfer it to your mobile and just start the cab file on your HD.
could u giv me a link plz
