I am curious, which player do you use and which is the best on the HD (no D-Pad). Which player makes the HD a real competitor to the iPod Touch / iPhone (in playing music).
I Like the Pocket Player. Nice Browsing through albums, many settingoptions, nice design.
I use the HTC one, it works and sounds pretty good ..
Coreplayer .... many many threads and posts about this ....
I'm trying out Pocketmusic (seems OK so far) as I can't get the TF3D thingie to work with more than a handful of tracks loaded, and anyway it seems a bit of a toy compared to what I've used before (pTunes on PalmOS), and it doesn't support .ogg files.

Btw, do you have any idea how to setup the fading in core player? you know, fading, so that when a song terminates the next one starts with 1-2 seconds overlapping, so it doesnt have the silence break..
thanks,

Pocket Tunes is very good.
But, they don't have a WVGA skin yet. One thing that I found to be useful is the good bluetooth handling they have and the redirection of podcasts to a mono headset.
Regards, D
you also have Kinoma Play. Excellent as music player.
GSplayer old but very good
Ive been using the TF3D-player up until yesterday when i installed Coreplayer.
The sound and equalizer is much better in Coreplayer.

But i think an intuitive interface is also very important. i like the interface of S2P but the coverflow is not very smooth. Currently i am using pocket player but i hope there will be some good ipod-like-mediaplayer soon.
TF3d music tab sounds way better than Windows media player..I just got coreplayer...I may start using it if the sound quality is better.
S2P for me!
As for me, I use S2P! I've been using it since it first came out, when I was using my "old" Touch. Now i've got the latest OpenGL S2P from A-C, and love it,think its a great player, and would recommend it to anyone.
But I do understand that everyone has their personal choice,so if u're looking for a music player, try several and see what suits you best!
I'm a huge MortPlayer fan, it plays my ogg files perfectly. The new beta version is MortPlayer 3.31 b76 which comes with a skin made for the HD resolution Highly Recommended.
I use "conduits pocket player". Amongst other things, it has the features I most want from an mp3/media player. The most important features for me are; The screen turns off at a configurable time, it has a configurable sleep timer, It pauses for phone calls and resumes playing on completion. I can control the pause and rewind (volume up and volume down buttons respectively) from my pocket. I think it is a great player.
I use HTC TF3D sound...
I'm testing Pocket Player - and so far I'm liking it. I just wish the default skin was nicer. So far I haven't found any other skins that are wvga and have the functionality + large cover photo like the default skin. And I wish you could navigate in full screen mode.
I tried the iPhone looking skin found in the xda forums, but the album cover is still too small (for my taste), and that skin doesn't have the functionality of the default skin.
So far the TF3D player and Pocket Player are my favorites (I've already tried all of the other ones on the poll list above). We'll see which one I end up using more often.
I used to use S2P but am happy with the HTC one, links up with my BT headphones and sounds quite good.
No winamp on its way to WM 6.1?
I am using MortPlayer for all music playing, it even wakes me up in the morning (that was the reason I started using it back in WM5 times: it was able to "awake" my HTC Wizard, while the implemented clock was not ...)
But MortPlayer is much more than this, it is easy to listen to live audio streams, MP3, OGG files and to create playlists or run through folder collections. A great player, indeed!

TF3D - simple and good audio quality. Composing playlist is somehow difficult because you dont see the full ID3 info. Loading takes some time when you have many audiofiles and to say the truth .... i don´t have soooo many - about 1-2GB only.
All other players have one problem, i have to start them, they don´t look as cool as TF3D and aren´t so user/thumbfriendly as TF3D - except for Mortplayer carscreen.

Can ppl please tell me what mp3 player u r using that works best on the JJ (good sound, VGA support, no trouble with closing and power)
MP3 Player
Use TCPMP, it can do even more than just playing MP3's (Video)
Cheers

I use PocketMusic Player... I think it's the best that I've tried...
You're not gonna have any luck with anything that will accept button presses when the lid is closed - I get the impression this is something the device does in hardware (or OS). It's a bummer - I know...

Maybe you didn't try TMPCP (freeware, formerly aka Betaplayer). I had PocketMusic Player installed and purchased before.
TMPCP is just superior and e.g. supports *.avi files (Movies)
You can find it here

I think Pocket Music Bundle is nicer to use as a music player though, has a few more options and nice tweaks here and there, and it works well enough on the JasJar despite a few display issues when browsing for files.
That said, I've uninstalled PMB and am currently using TCPMP, largely because I'm waiting for proper WM5 software to come along, and in the meantime I'm keeping software to an absolute bare minimum.
Pocketmusic has much better sound. And thats all tht matters to me
TCPMP gives out very good sound if you play about with the equaliser.
(I'll conceed that PocketMusic may be slightly better though, so when they update their software, I'll be there!!)
I have PocketMusic Ver. 3.7 installed on the JASJAR. It works OK.
But I prefer TCPMP anyway. Problably a matter of taste.
And as said above, you have to play with the equalizer of TCPMP to make it sound good.
Cheers

I am using 40th floor MP3 (free but not available anymore). Sound quality is good, but there is no way to dim the screen during playback, and no way to create playlists.
What other (except for Mediaplayer) programs exist for WM5/Prophet? What are you using? (Bluetooth compatibilty doesn't matter, as I am using Sound cradle)
Mort Player
_http://www.sto-helit.de/
Windows Media Player
TCMP player
I am using MortPlayer. I think it is the best one.
Ppod,your spv or qtek looks like an ipod.
Still WMP
Windows media player works great for me, I've tried a bunch of other programs.
Still find WMP the best one

Mortplayer, because it is light and functional, plays ogg files and has a large simple display mode.
Personally I like WinamPaq. Guess its because I got used to winamp on the PC.
One note about WMP - it seems to take up more memory then the competition.
Thank you, but...none of them is really good. First of all Windows Media Player doesn't allow to play a selection continuously. MortPlayer has UGLY and unfriendly interface, as all af their (very good) programs. The guy from 40th floor blocks the whole world and sells his program only to US americans.... so there is nothing on the market? Anybody tried Vito player? Is it any good?
I don't use MortPlayer, but like many others it is skinable. You can even create your own skin so I wouldn't dismiss the app just because of looks.
There is the new CorePlayer out, saw review somewhere on this site just yesterday. Not free, but looks nice and plays just about everything. No AVCRP support though...
THE BEST
Simple, versatile and free !!!
http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/fr/index.php?soft=1080
yep, nothing beats TCPMP, NOTHING
if you are talking merely about mp3 function, PocketMind PocketMusic is the super ideal solution!
MortPlayer. The default skin looks ugly, but just choose the "Steel" skin, which is very functional, or download one from the site.
Mp3 Player
I Have Tried Almost All Extensively And Finally Settled To "conduits Pocket Player".
best mp3 player
I use gsplayer, good quality and simple. I believe mortplayer uses the gsplayer playback engine but stand to be corrected. I like mortplayer as well but it's too much hassle to use sometimes.
I don't like the actual music player (Audio Manager) and I don't care ever about windows media....
So what is the best Music Player?
Does anything like Ipod or Iphone software exist??
there is
pPod which is pretty much an ipod clone pretty poor though dont support screen toggle or other formats then mp3
there is mortplayer which have many ipod'ish skins
there are winampaq
there are many ipod'ish skins for wmp too
but in generaly you get as many various replys as
you do with questions like
"whos the best actor"
"whats the best cheese"
"whats the best car".......
people openions and tastes differs pretty much
gsplayer AND srs wow.
imo.
best sound quality, and least cpu usage had 40tiplay.
I have already SRS WOW, and it's great...
I have heard something about this "40iplay", but I can't enter in its main site.....
What do you think about that?

Does exist a problem with the same features?
take a look at pocket player 3.51. I am sure it has its flaws as well but it has some nice iphonish features.

Ive tried em all but always come back to plain old windows media player - it has less bugs than the others.

I have already tried it....
but when I minimize the player, It shuts down.....
Have you a solution? (This is a nice player....)
That is most likely in the advance settings. I don't have a Touch but I put it on a friend of mines that does. It worked great. In the settings I believe there is a choice of what action to take when minimized. I know mine is set to continue playing and provide a player control on the today screen via a "notification" button on the bottom tool bar. Definately contact their support center because they will help you fix the bug.
Thanks

PocketMelody
Anyone tried PocketMelody??
I copied all the directory into my memory card...
The program starts correctly, but when I try to see the mp3 list, a black screen appears and if I push the screen again, the first screen of pocket melody comes back.....
Any solution??
If you don't need video and like options, Mortplayer rocks. It is the only player I have found where I can start playback of a certain folder with one button push.
I like conduits pocket player it has a couple bugs but I like alot of its features like built in web radio and streaming podcasts.
I also have a touch and dont have that problem when minimizing so you might want to check the settings.
Did i miss it or did really no one mention TCPMP or The Core Player?
Both play ogg of cause and also speex (highly compressing speech codec, good for audio books or comedy stuff) and the Core Player (not free unfortunately) also handles Bluetooth Headsets with the AVRC Protocol

Hi everybody;
I'd like to know, what are the best mp3 players for Windows mobile pda's ?
Actually i have windos media player (eeeeerk) and nero mobile;
I'd like to find an "intuitive" player, as ipod's player which is perfect for me;
Does any player with Ipod's style exist? or any other intuitive player of this style?
Thanks all.
i do not know anything about trendy apps, but try these, just good, simple mp3players..
gsplayer, mortplayer.
trendy mainstream will recommend sth. like s2p or similar...
I second s2p. cool player
There a number of good mp3 players which might suit your needs such as:
1. Conduits Pocket Player(I'm currently using it) - Extremely functionable which uses a library system similar to the windows media player library screen but more finger friendly. Also uses Windows media Player skins, Pocket player Skins and basic Winamp skins (2.x). Great for maximising your battery life because it can run on a underclocked cpu without any issues.
2. PocketMind's PocketMusic - Great if you dont like to change song via your playlist because the playlist uses a rather small font and is designed for a stylus but the main screen should be fine for your fingers.
3. Kinoma FreePlay - Extremely good program which uses a navigation system which greatly resembles that of an iPod and uses a very clean and finger friendly UI... But it lacks important features such as A2DP and a Toggle Screen function.
4. S2P - Looks great and plays songs alright... lacking a playlist function.
5. AudioManager - Never Tried It =(
Im using kinoma but was thinking of starting to use something else. Kinoma just doesnt cut it for me anymore and it looks to outdated.
pocket player, its the best !!!
Nitrogen

I love the HTC Sense interface however I have found the music player to be difficult when it comes to editing playlists among other things.
Nitrogen is free and has a simple interface, though not as beautiful as Sense, the options and clarity of use trump the HTC music player. You can find it here:
www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-nitrogen-player.html
Regards,
Rudy.
I rarely use my HD2 for MP3s and if I do it's primarily for playing Justin Beiber - 'Baby' to piss my friends off, Sense suffices nicely for that.
Ive only been using the sence player, because when i click next song on my bluetooth headphones, the sence player is the only one to respond
why isnt anyone using S2P? Love it! Using the latest version & it rocks. Great UI. No glitches. Awesome work with the covers etc. Best part is tht it plays audio off videos. I download a lotta music vidz but like to jst hear while walkin....this wrks wonders, coz unlike in WM player, TCPMP etc where if i turn display off, playback stops, here u can switch off & put the phone in ur pocket & still hear the audio
core player baby! all i do is lock the screen and wen i put it in my pocket or wen the screen goes blank, the music still plays
Nitrogen for me too
Pocket Player
It really does kick the lamma's ass.
great sound
lots of controls
including rewind and seek/resume
DSP effects surround sound is just the biscuit.
Video Playback is a software job but then again so are most.
Podcast down load straight from the menu...
The list goes on, for me Music and Audio Pocket Player. Video built in Windows Media Player, then you get the hardware acceleration you paid top money for.
does pocket player have built in shoutcast?

search for "keep music playing with screen off cab"
wmp, pandora, sense music player, slacker all play with screen off for me.
How about LCG Jukebox.give it a try.i think you can find its performance like pocket player or even better than that,maybe.
