Hello,
at first, sorry for my english, I'm from Germany. I've searched a while for a VGA Skin to match the look of the Media Player with the rest of my Diamond, but couldn't find anything. So I created this evening one by my self.
It's not finaly finished, but nearly at the end. If someone is interessted in this work I can Upload it here tomorrow or at monday.
Here some Screens how it looks at the moment. If you have some ideas for Improvement...
Cheers, Fred

So,
finally here it is, added today some nice rating icons and made a new Screenshot.
At the moment just portrait mode, but if I got time I add a Landscape version if some people ask for it.
If you have ideas for Improvement I'll try to implement them (if it is a good idea )
Have fun...
Here's also some news about it. Tank you for this news entry *g*

I've updated the theme so it also supports Landscape Mode too.
Hope you like it.

Haha, seriously man, this looks SWEET!
Looks amazing, this is what I've been waiting for!!! Please post it asap!!
WOW I didn't notice until now you've posted it already! Looks great, THANKS!!!
so this should work on 1.97 roms and 1.93 or?
Makes no difference which ROM you use, should work on every ROM with the WMP.
Could you make a black version of this skin?
Thanks nice work !
Very good job.
best regards
nice skin, thanks!
i believe i have seen it b4. didnt dutty got this theme on his ROMs?
No, this theme is completely made by myself! There's nothing copied.
All other Versions I've seen are just upscaled qvga versions.
great skin,but i would really like to have landscape too
s
but how to insrall it,where to copy these files?
just extract the folder into \program files\Windows Media Player
interesting,i have extract into that folder(so no in internal storage,i ectract this into device memore\program files\winows media player) but skin is same,and yes i have softreset?!?!
Media Player
After you have placed the Folder in Windows/Media Player look for Options/Skins then select and the device should automatically locate it and you can scroll right/left to choose.

I haven't found any info on this matter...
I have tons of WM 2003SE tsk themes, but... they don't work with WM 5.0 in my Universal...
Do you know where can I find compatible themes? I tried wisbar advance desktop, but it is still in beta... I'm looking for simple tsk themes that work in WM 5.0
Any help would be appreciated.
Someone posted this a while back, I beleive you need the Pocket PC SE VGA to work with the Universal. I have not tried it yet, so do post back if they do work.
http://www.wmthemes.com/default.aspx
It doesn't work. The lower two softkeys don't change their colour, and the wallpaper appears like grey, even if it has... every colour of the rainbow.
I'm really surprised that M$ hasn't announced a theme maker for WM 5.0... And more surprised that there are only 1-2 themes available for WM 5.0 devices...
Really unfortunate...
Try this one:

More to come....
svyatko you rock! Excellent themes at last!!! Send more plz!
How did you make them my friend? With what kind of software?
Thanx also for the other links to the other friend who post them
Hi svyatko,
Are you using a launcher? How did you get to show so many icons on your screen?
What is the colorful round icon near the battery icon?
Very nice themes. How did you create them?
Great themes svyatko!
I dont seem to have the additional icons!
Do I need to install flash or anything?
guys thanks for your comments. Now, all icons I have , are RESCO TODAY PLUG-IN. it's pretty cool. and it doesn't slow the system like SPB POCKET PLUS one. The icon in the corner next to the battery is POCKET INFORMANT icon.
and regarding the software I am using, its something like McDEV Theme creator. I can't remember the axact name, coz i'm @ work, sneakely writing from my Exec ;-))
yess! The program is ThemeMaker McDeb and it works...
At last I made my own themes based on the ones provided here! Thanx again my friend, it works great.
i'm glad you made it. the only problem I find difficult to solve is the dimentions of the picture. no matter how I tried, the picture gets cut in landscape or in portrait modes. it's obviously not a big deal in an abstract pictures, but in something more precise, that is a great pain in the ass...
Do you have a link for the resco today plugin?

Hi everyone, here's my first contribution to this wonderful community
I don't know how many people were in my boat but in my search for a pretty WVGA skin last week I stumbled across this iPhone style one:
http://mylostblog.altervista.org/sk...inal-skins/wmp-skin-005-iphoneipod-touch-wide
However, the WVGA skin seemed to have simply being a badly resized QVGA one so I spent some time and remade all the graphics. Only changes I made were that the shuffle and repeat icons are now grayed out by default and become white when active. Also in landscape the play/pause, previous and next icons no longer sit in their own little box. Everything else is pretty much the same but high res.
For those that don't know, install the skin by placing the "iPhone" folder in your /Program Files/Windows Media Player folder and select the skin from the options. You will have to select the landscape one when in landscape mode.
Credits to MyLostBlog for the initial design.
Update:
MyLostBlog has pointed out that there is an official higher resolution version of this skin here:
http://mylostblog.altervista.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=82
I have uploaded the cab from here as well as the design.
This has an extra mute button and fullscreen button in landscape mode.
Thanks again to MyLostBlog for the beautiful design.
very nice skin! thanks for your work!
Although I'm not an iPhone fan this skin looks great and much more comfortable than the standard one. I will give it a try later on.
Nice skin. Thanks for sharing.

I agree, I'm not a fan of iPhones either but the default WMP skin is horrible. I can't really change to another player though because I use voice commands to play my music

you're not changing players, you're just installing a new skin to make it look different

Haha what? I know that, I am the OP. I'm saying that I agree with WMP being rather old and lacking some useful features, however, I can't use voice commands with other players such as CorePlayer or S2P and hence I'm more or less stuck with WMP - hence the skin.

How do I get the Landscape Skin to show up in the Options window?
Turn the phone on landscape (make sure you have a screen rotating app installed such as FlipIt).
Once in landscape navigate the options and it will display landscape skins.
Ah, I see. Gotta use a screen rotater and get in landscape first, huh? Gotcha. Thanks.
Is anyone having problems of this not working? The skin only applies for a few minutes then once I make sure it's in use in options it just reverts to the original skin. Also my WMP folder is empty .
no registration just choose your resolution and no caps just copy paste contets to windows media player folder http://mobilityupdate.com/iphone-skin-for-windows-mobile-qvga-vga-wvga-wqvga-supported/
This skin has saved my WMP experience... Thanks!
Any chance of someone porting a true "Touch Player" setup to WMP11? I truly miss the swipe from TF, but it just kills the memory to run it all...
Hi, this is the famous Samsung Midomi music identification application for the Windows Mobile devices! You're probably wondering why I've re?!? posted this. Then again, those of you who know me know I don't just repackage and repost things. And you're right, I didn't.
I loved the one I found posted by Ikkari but it had two problems. The first was the fact that the default internet connection was via WAP, for which Ikkari posted a registry solution to and shiranmotha repackaged and posted. So credit to both of these people for providing the packages they did.
Unfortunately that left one annoying (and ultimately grating) issue for someone like myself. The menu didn't work. In fact if you accidentally clicked it, the whole program froze. Well, not anymore. As a sidenote, I also made this install under program files (either on the device or the storage card as you so choose) because I personally don't think something like this belongs in the \Windows directory And even though the menu is fully functional and you can choose ANY connection you desire I did default it to use the device's Internet (GSM/CDMA) connection.
Enjoy!
Don't forget, if you enjoy my work, please
!
Midomi 1.6.57 on RapidShare
Midomi 1.6.57 on MegaUpload
Midomi 1.6.57 on FileSend
P.S. Please be aware that at the time of this posting this has only been tested on an HTC Rhodium based device (WVGA). It likely works on many others, if you find it works on yours please be kind enough to mention it so others will know.
P.P.S. Please feel free to propagate this file to other free download sites and post the URL in this thread. Cheers!
does it works using a Wifi connection?
And on a VGA screen?
EDIT:
Tested!!
It works perfect!

You are a legend, looking forward to checking out the menu of this. I though the development of this was forgotten once it was made to work.
The app itself is golden on a TP2, i tested a previous version with a success rate of 10 out of 11 (not bad!).
I have tried it in several stores to id a song playing and it worked every time - awesome and real handy...!
Be mindfull of the additional lyric look-up as this can kick your data use in the pants real fast. I ran a test on lyrics for a Bowie song and checked my provider's stats, i was surprised to see a use of over 3mb....
But for pure song ID it is a star!
Now all we need ported is Samsungs 3d audio processor app, this is apparently better than SRS WOW HD (which is great, but sadly does not work on a TP2 - makes your phone go into fatal standby....)
Cheers

Thank you
using diamond (CDMA) on sprint. So far so good. Thanks much. (that non-functional menu button drove me nuts to no end). thank you
Great!! Downloading now to test ASAP!!!
Works great so far... Thanks & Great job!
After trying Midomi and comparing it with MusicID, Midomi definitely feels more accurate and faster. I haven't tried the sing search feature yet, but it looks very nifty.
Please, please, please!!!
Is there a QVGA version of this...????
Thank you very much for this corrected version... works perfectly on ma german X1 (WVGA)...
Chris
Edit: Why didn't you post this under "Development and Hacking"? I think that topic would fit better =)
Anyone try this out on a Titan yet? I know a couple Titan users having issues with this app.
P.S. Works GREAT on my i910 Omnia!!!!!
Thanks your the best
Perfect!
Thanks!
For WM6.5 users, here some PNG for StartMenu icons:
I've successfully installed it but haven't yet played around with it much on my Wizard (QVGA). Visually its working perfectly. Have to test it with a couple songs to see how it compares to MusicID.
Thank you very much =)

Good: Visually, everything fits and looks great.
Bad: Does not recognize anything. Set to internet connection, I can see the data arrows (showing that it is connecting) but the end result is no songs found. Why? Beats me...
I would like to know if there is a registry edit that can make it open the default htc youtube application on the phone also? That would be perfect instead of going through internet explorer.

skin's not working
Hi, guys!
i've got a problem...TCPMP v0.72 RC2 works but the skin doesn't!
I don't see buttons at all...some of them shows after i click on them but it is useless.
could you help me please?what version of TCPMP are you using?
thx a lot
apply the skin
using the menu within TCPMP apply the skin and see.
i away from my phone and home comp... so cannot check exactly... but from memory all i can suggest is to apply the skin and check.
Still can't play any newer files, got the "missing MP42 codec" message, couldnt find the plugin for TCPMP, yet the only fully working player for me remains Core Player .. goody gumdrops
Coreplayer is better, but it's not free. Also it doesn't support AC-3 and subtitles, so the best is using both of them.
