Hello!
I got a question. has someone had troubles playing flv files on wm6 with tcpmp. whatever flv plugin i find and install , tcpmp tells me
Video Codec ( ) not supported by player
any experience?
thanks for the help.
quasimonto
there is no one who has an idea what could be wrong? no hint? nothing?
so far i was able to get some sound, but still i got a black screen with flv videos. the same programs and plugins under wm5 where working perfectly.. since i swapped to wm6 it stopped to do so..
Problem with flv on TCPMP
I've have the same problem can't play flv after installing plugin on WM6. After I tried copy the 2 plugin files into the TCPMP program directory and it play flv file no problem.
I've just upgraded my XDA2 to WM6 using C_Shekhar ROM thank you, its fast so far I've no problem with it. Its only the 1st day.
re-encode the file
some of the flv files are really not playable with TCPMP but others are playable, in that case, I re-encode the file so it will now be playable. Less worries!
I have sound and black screen
Has any one got an answer for the black screen with WM6 ? I have sound though. Thanks

Sorry to bump an old thread but this is the exact issue Im having with my FLV files. Ones from youtube will play fine in TCPMP but from other sources, I just get the black screen or the player will give the error "Video Codec ( ) not supported by player" as described in the first post.
You mentioned re-encoding the file. Can you please explain how you do that?
Problem with flv on TCPMP
Hii, I'm new here...
I've sound and blackscreen, too, run FLV on TCPMP.
But I change in option>video>ATI IMAGEON
Run perfect but sometimes screen splash, and I push quick in panel "Play" on TCPMP then stop and back to normal.
I guess problem in VGA driver that support flash video.
Is anybody help this problem?

This is just my personal build that works best for me. Made up of mostly old but a small percentage of new components from BIMBAM & LBE TEAM. Comes with 2 players. One plays FLV, FLV4, RMVB, the other player will not play these but will play MPEG2, VCD, SVCD, DVD & CINEPAK. Both players will play WMV, SVQ1/SVQ3, MP4, AVI, MPEG and many more common audio and video formats. I use one player as my main player cause it handles most formats except MPEG2 & CINEPAK. Both players are skinable.
TIPS:
Some QT files will play if the extention is changed from QT to MOV or AVI
VOB & DAT files will play if extention is changed to MPG. If the codec is MPEG1 they will play in Both players. VOB & DAT files are MPEG1 & MPEG2 videos so all will play.
No build of TCPMP will play FLV files that use the H.263 OR H.264 codecs but other files that use that use the H.263 & H.264 codecs will play.
The LYRIC plugin works very well. All you have to do is put the LRC file in the same folder as the MP3 and make sure the file names match and the lyrics for that song will play automatically when the song starts. The lyrics will not show if the MP3 has album art.

do you mind to send one to [email protected]
I can't access it due to company's firewall
By the way, is your new rmvb plug-in used in this one? Or should I update after install this one?
Thank you very much.

I tried sending it but my Yahoo! is not letting upload attachments for some odd reason. U might want to ask a friend to download. Sorry I will try again in the morning. It does have the new RMVB plugin.
OK I will download at home
Thank you

Hello,
Excellent work you have done, now if this program exceeds the capacity Core Player to play FLV videos, among many other formats ... Congratulations.
I am glad also that much development for Windows Mobile did not die in many cases ... thanks again.
Regards,
let's see how it works for me. i hope it doesn't crash like other tcpmp builds
great work of this build, specially for compability with MVU, now i can watch flv with fp6 codec from MVU, only problem when playing fp6 with res higher than 320x240 the video lag, hope to see fix for this codec
thanks
hello
exellent work. i am going to try it today
Great great job.
thanks
thanks..will try it out

How about skinning this one?

There is lots of skins floatin around for u to choose from. I personally do not use skins for TCPMP. I use it for one purpose, to watch videos. I think the simple look of TCPMP stands out against skined players.

Yes this is a known problem with TCPMP. FLV4 VP6 videos of a high resolution do stutter. I have found that FLV4 and WMV9 are the worst videos for TCPMP. They both have the same stutter problem. I believe it is the lack of hardware acceleration and not the codecs. Coreplayer has the same problem with WMV9 but WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER is hardware accelerated so they play very smooth.
Thanks a lot for this pack, works great for me
btw are there any players that can play FLV files that use the H.263 OR H.264 codec?

thanks for the info
I like TMCP , Thanks
Not able to download the file from 4shared . Any mirror?
Thanks.
thanks for this version. The other TCMP version wouldn't even play MP3s for some reason on my omnia II.
However, I tried to play an internet station .pls file and it says "cannot load URL". But if I use COREPLAYER on the same .pls it plays...
also, when I turn off my screen, the music stops playing.
This is old, but I haven't found any related threads so just confirming that 720p MKV playback works flawlessly on the Xperia arc (all builds, firmwares). Unfortunately, it's only with the PAID app DicePlayer: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.inisoft.mediaplayer.dice
It works with all the efnet MKVs I've downloaded (TV shows) but failed with some Blu-Ray ripped MKVs with embedded subtitles.
It's available as a trial to test first: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.inisoft.mediaplayer.trial
YouTube 720p (HQ) also works flawlessly.
HDMI output/mirroring is put to good use with 720p playback (and yes, HDMI output works on any display/TV, not just Sony).
Hi,
I just tried playing one 720p .mkv file ( an old Sienfeld episode) and it does not work smoothly neither with MoboPlayer or DicePlayer .... only works in software mode with both players.
Not all mkv files are the same, so I will try more .....
just tried again with 3 files, two were samples from movies 70mb and 25mb and one full episode, about 400mb , all of them 720p mkv.
NONE played ok with MoboPlayer or DicePlayer, actually both worked only in software mode, video was laggy, sound was delayed or totally crashed. One of the files played almost OK and I think is just a matter of bitrate. It would be very good to know if there is one player that can use hw acceleration for .mkv 720p files.
Well .mkv is just the file container. You'll need to check what codecs are actually used for audio and video compression, if you want to find out what works and what not.
You are right.
mkv is the container. The most usual codecs are .x264 and VC-1
But if the bitrate is too high the files will not be properly played
I use MX Video Player to play videos.
It uses HW acceleration if possible and if not software decoding.
Mx video player is the best player at this time
Just download
1) MX video player Pro 1.3C apk (This pro file easily available just search in Google)
and
2) MX video player Codec for AMRv7 apk (This file is free in market just search in market)
Only MX Video PRO can play HD videos in the proper way? I've just started it out on my Dell Streak 7 and the video was lagging. :/
Best MKV 720 Video Player till now .
DicePlayer Ad.
thanks a lot, I'll try it out!
I'm using MX video player on neo v and is working fine.
Select the Mobile BRAVIA Engine while playing mkv files.

i'm using "Kascend Video" player..play smooth with 720p MKV video..^^
BSPlayer also uses hardware acceleration.

I just want to paste this post from Q&A section so it can be helpful to as much people as it can:
I use Dice player to play mkv videos but not all mkv videos can be played i H/W mode and I think I know why. Developer of DicePlayer wrote in description that Xperia arc can play "720p [email protected]/4.0(some Level 4.0 file have shutter problem)" videos. From what I know scene releases of tv shows and hd movies now need to be converted with 4.1 profile so our arc/arc s can't play it. There is no need to reconvert video to change Profile Level do 4.0 or 3.1 thanks to H264 Level Editor tool. It can change level within 1 second. Tested with justified.s03e04.720p.hdtv.x264-compulsion.mkv. Changed level from 4.1 to 4.0 and still couldn't play it via DicePlayer so I changed it to 3.1 and it worked like a charm.
Don't know why but video still can't be played in MX Video Player.
I just hope this can be usefull to somebody having touble with playing 720p mkv videos.

What player are you using? I used Rock Player to test some AVI videos yesterday and it seemed to work perfect.

How big were your files, and what format if you don't mind me asking? I tried playing a few mkv files, at first they didn't work, I then rebooted and one of them would play, albiet, choppily (MX Video Player). The files were 700MB-1.5GB.
I did download a 720p mp4 video of Lion King's "hakuna matata" from youtube, that played fine.
1080 videos of various sizes and i am just using the native player built in cyanogen
Try Mobo Player, if it doesnt work as it is, download its ARMv7 codecs from the market
I put a bunch of videos on my new MicroSD that I got in the mail yesterday, and while all of them will run in Moboplayer (except for American Psycho which is in AVCHD in a .m2ts container), they all seem to stutter a bit.
So, I was wondering what is the most reliable video codec and container for the NT?
It says that it supports:
3GP, 3G2, MP4, M4V, MKV, WEBM, H.264 (Baseline/Main/High profile) up to 1920x1080, MPEG-4 Simple/Advanced Simple profile up to 1920x1080, & H.263
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
but H.264 seems to stop running every few seconds for me.
Quick edit: Just finished uploading an MKV file and it seems to be the best so far, although the subtitles are coming up even though I disabled them in Moboplayer.
Any other recommended video players perhaps?
i use mx video player personally
yea mx video player is most smooth IMO. If available SW Fast decoding provides best playback of HD files 720p or 1080p. Of course it drains more battery so yeah...
Just installed it and it's running much better than Mobo was for me, thanks you guys.
Any time. Btw handbrake is a great way to convert your dvd's to mkv or mpeg4 format. Blurays will be too large to play,but most dvd,s will be about 700meg. I also use anydvdhd to strip the drm. On the computer i also use media browser for listing the movies. Bluray dvd's i have are played with media player classic hd with shark 007 codec pack
I grabbed 2 Youtube music videos - one 720p and one 1080p - both mp4 files. They work with no issues with the B&N video player but mx video player installed from the market wont play them. I don't get any errors or warnings its just stuck there at 00:00 with no movement and a black screen with the video controls - all i can do is exit. If I am to install one of the codec packs from the market - arm6/7 etc - which one should it be? Not sure what the processor is!

I think its ARM7 you want to get.
Also, mp4 is only a container filetype. The codec used for compression is also important, for example HuffyUV, H264, X263.
yea i have a video thats an avi but it closes out any media player right away...just opens the player then closes lol

i have an avi on my NT and it loads fine. i think the previous poster was right about the codec. the codec is more important than the container. you might want to email the developers who made mx video player and ask them about it.
I need to run g-spot on it, it might have a weird codec or something
Been using Mx Video and it has worked with every video that I have thrown at it.
h264 codec is hardware accelerated in MX Video player. Even FullHD videos are played smoothly.
What container are you using? I can't get HW acceleration to work for any h.264 files in mkv, mp4, mov, or m4v. I use MX player and it kicks over to the SW decoder every time.
Here are my discoveries about HW video decoding in MX Player:
1. originally I uploaded some 1.5 gig MKV file downloaded from the web to SD card and tried to play it, but nothing happened - MX played it in SW mode.
2. Then, I created/converted some small video to MP4 (H.264 and AAC) and tried playing it with MX - and it worked fine
3. Strangely, but after playing hand-converted video MX started to play MKV, but with glitches...
So I think MX has some bugs when run on NT or it is not fully compatible with NT.
EDIT: ArcSoft Media Converter was used...
