Play Iso and DVR.MS files? VLC not working - Shift General

I have a huge amount of those files. Till now I was playing them nicely on both my Mac and PC (XP) using VLC player.
In fact. I bought the Shift mostly to look at tv programs while flying.
The Windows media player on my Media Centre could play DVR.MS nicely, but here... no way.
VLC player is hanging many times. I read some advices, but till now, no success.
Before I dump my Shift .... any advice what to do?

MP4 conversion

good day.
i've noticed that when we take videos using XDA 2, it records the files as MP4. It isn't good but its not bad quality, HOWEVER, I cannot seem to play it when I transfer it to my PC.
Can anyone please suggest an MP4 to any recognizable PC format converter?
Thanks.
quicktime play them
quictime can play MP4 i think.
You can also chance the capture format to AVI
in Camera settings/Tools menu at bottom/Options
im hitting myself in the head, BOING!
thanks, im weird, hehehe.
there is also a codex u can install which will allow you to play MP4 in windows media player on your PC... i will upload it when i get home ... i use it without any problems
thanks, ill be waiting for the upload.
I've made a little research....
the videos are not recorded in mp4! They are recorded in "3GP" http://www.3gp.com
but you are right, Quicktime Player is the recommended player for 3gp files (regarding the above website).
Even the "QuickTimeAlternative" did not play the files
quicktimes does at least i've never had any issues
and it's the normal version not the pro one i use
as promised pls find the codex for windows media player, which will enable you to play MPEG4 on you PC.....like i said before its worked fine with me, i have been using it for the past 8months without any problems.
Regards.
oh just in case if you want to do you research this is where i got the codex from
http://www.mpegable.com/show/mpegableds.html
i'm not trying to be anel or anything but it's codec not codex
it's a merge of Compressor / Decompressor
where codex is a manuscript volume
shouldn't it be anAl ?
[double submit]
Can't find the delete checkbox
heh yeah well i do suppose i could blame it on that maybe the forum had a curse filter ..... but i'm not going to ...
There's also 3gp2rawavi command line utility that seems to work for the 3gp files produced by the XDAII.

Any one tried orb?

I just downloaded and installed Orb on my home PC and after a few minutes setting up i can now remotely access my Sky+, VCR, DVDs and photos, music documents and videos on the PC all from my MDA Pro (or indeed any broadband connected PC) anyware its connected to the internet.
It uses Internet explorer and Windows media player on the PPC so there isn't even any software to install in our precious memeory.
And it WORKS (You need a media centre type pc to get live tv streamed) Considering how complex this all is I was amazed that for once it all worked with out hours of endless tweaking, and its free.
If only the media player display was proper full screen...sigh
www.orb.com
i tried to get it working but it wouldn't see my tv card :sigh:

I set it up to use TCPMP, which plays full screen.

How do you set TCPMP to be the default player for the various media? I read a couple of posts in various forums that say that media player starts up for live streams from orb even with TCPMP installed
Not got it in front of me right now, but I belive I simply set the file associations in TCPMP to handle the streams.

Just set asx of file associate to TCPMP in option menu.
But best way should be upgrade your rom to WM6.
The Windows Media Player 10 boundle in WM6.
It's support full screen and more smooth than TCPMP in streaming play.

VLC PLAYER FOR PPC anyone

does anybody know where to find vlc player ppc.... the official site doesn't offer anymore... if you have it then please give me...
I've read that it's highly unstable. You can get the last draft here:
http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/wince/vlc-0.8.4-test1-20051012-0130-wince.zip
If you're looking for a video player, I'd recommend TCPMP very strongly. For audio, MortPlayer (for various reasons such as supports more than wmv/mp3, has built-in screen sleep mode and button mapping, is easy to re-skin).
What was your intended use for VLC?
I agree TCPMP is a great player, used it for a long time on my ipaq, and now on my wizard, just works great
Myrddin wyllt,.. I was kinda looking for good decoders for live streaming. I love to watch live tv over wifi, watching anime, basketball, news and etc... though wmp, tcmp, streaming video, core player, or even the mplayer ( doesn't support sound with wma streaming) don't offer that much decoders.. like rstp: streaming 3gp or mms streaming mp4... and I'm even hoping that there would be a divx stream for ppc! I wish.
I had all but lost hope for this... but then I heard that vlc ppc was also able to stream video... I was hoping that it would support all decoders.. IF NOT I"ll just copy the Plugins from the VLC (PC VERSION) then put in the vlc ppc directory...
IF i came up with an error in vlc streaming then i'll try copying the plugins... though i don't know if it will work or not? But who knows.
Though if i made some mistakes, please please correct me (thats the only way i'll learn)
I HAVE GOOD DAY!
Thumb Up! TCPMP and MortPlayer!
If you want to stream 3GP through RTSP/HTTP, just use the HTC Streaming Media.
For wma streaming...why don't you use WMP?

WMP supports all lot but sometimes it doesn't work, Audio works but no video... and in mplayer support video but no wma....
BTW... IS htc streaming media the same as streaming media... I downloaded a WM6 rom onto my 8125 and got a streaming media software with it... IS IT the same as htc streaming media or an upgraded version?...

If you're looking for a Divx stream, DIVX.COM now has a mobile player. I haven't tested it that much, but the desktop version will play almost anything I throw at it!

VLC Player for PPC
Hi, am looking out for a ppc player which could play .VOB formats without conversion. I believe VLC Player can do the job. TCPMP is not supporting VOB. Help anyone? thanks.
just buy core player. it is really worth it.

Agreed....its an amazing player that plays almost everything
i think there is no vlc player for ppc and that is so bad

Yeah. There is only VLC Remote wich allows u to control VLC running on your pc/Mac via your PPC. And VLC Remote is only for WebOS (as i could find).

are these «nightly's» automatically generated by some software daily? if not, then who's posting them? or rather, wth are they? I cant figureout how to install them. whatever this vlc for winmo is, not holding my breath for it. I just wish vlc for android gets released soon, as it was announced last month but is still nowhere to be found. all I need is the ability to time stretch (fast playback speed at normal pitch/tone), but so far there's still no mobile programthat can do this on either WinMo or Android. sigh..

Re encode your videos with an encoder or use TCPMP media player to play your media files..

Upgrading codecs?

i can update codecs on the multiplayer on my pc, can i do the same for multiplayer on the HD2?
Mike
i guess you mean media player. i don't know if it is possible to upgrade/install codecs for the windows media player or the manila player.
but you can try tcpmp(free) or coreplayer(commercial), these two support most codecs.
yup sorry lol.
ill have a look at the progs you suggest. i have movies that play fine on the pc but not on the phone so put this down to codec lack.
Mike
get chainfire`s video driver from this forum and the netdrgTCPMP-player and the overclock utility (just do a search in the APPS-subforum) and You will be fine with all videos ..................
i have now put tcpmp on the phone and the movies now play so big fanx ;-)
only thing is that some of the control buttons do not show up such as play and pause. they are there but are kinda black on black so i cant see em. not a biggie as i am just pleased that i can now watch book of eli on the phone.
Mike
did You reset after install ?
