Getting Streaming Video or Audio - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

I haven't been able to get any audio or video streams to work on the kaiser. I have tried both IE and Opera. With my treo 750 windows media player would open and the stream would begin. With the kaiser, I get a message re: save or open stream. Neither selection works. Any thoughts?

Bump please. I can't figure this out.

Pocket Player will stream .pls and other formats as well as wma. I found that the best way to do it is to set up PP as the default device associated with all media types (omfg I wish I could uninstall WMP). Then maneuver to the streaming link on your mobile browser (dito for Opera over PIE) and click on the streaming link and PP should open and pick it up. Works like a dream.
I always use KCRW to test streaming capability - it's the most reliable and stable I have found (not to mention it's also an awesome station...). Click on the "Listen" link and then look for the "Stand Alone Player" links. I prefer mp3 streams.
Hope this helps.

Youtube

anyone notice you can watch youtube videos(not mobile youtube) in pie after downloading the flash plugin?
I have already been doing so but by using the TCPMP and "FlashVideoBundle.cab" technique because PIE was never able to play videos directly from the youtube site. Opera 8.65 on the other hand could.
But maybe they have changed something lately at youtube and the videos work directly in PIE.
Could you please comment how is the video quality. Is it choppy?? because that is how it is on Opera 8.65 but on the other hand very smooth on TCPMP
Regards
How do you use the TCPMP and "FlashVideoBundle.cab" technique? Do you start with PIE and then, when you give the command to play the video, the TCPMP pops up and plays it? I have tried it several times and typically the Streaming Video player that comes with the Kaiser pops up and takes over. I have adjusted the TCPMP by checking the MMS and the video profiles etc., but cannot get it to come on line and take over from the native (Streaming Video Player) Kaiser program. Any thoughts?
When I installed TCPMP I too faced this problem that when I clicked on a movie in youtube the default streaming media player would pop up and not be able to play.
The only thing that I did which corrected the situation was :-
Start TCPMP player, navigate to Options / Select Page / File Associations / and check the following boxes in addition to the ones already checked by default.
MMS Protocol
HTTP Protocol
Flash Video
M3U Playlist Files (M3U)
Hope this helps
it is choppy but I think it is because there is no way to resize the video to fit the screen.

Listening Internet Radio streams via Kaiser

Hello!
I have this problem: how to listen .m3u (mp3 / aac) / .asx / listen.pls / .rm / etc
type of online internet radio station streams using HTC Tytn II (kaiser) ?
I have tried Pocket Player and WinVibe, but they didn't work start listening the stream
One stream I'd like to hear is http://radio.cbs.nu/cbs96.m3u
Getting netradio to work would make this excellent device even more better! So can someone pls help me with this matter!!
Thanks in Advance,
Petri Lyytinen
Do you have Real Player installed? I think it covers some of the formats you mentioned. I can't tell you for sure as iv'e sent of my Kaiser to get the screen fixed.
Pocket RealOne is required to play .rm files unless there's another player i'm not aware of that plays Real Audio. While I don't stream anything except .asf (.wmwebasf) files, I would assume that Windows Media Player would play mp3 streams as well as the asx streams. You could try TCPMP for the asx and mp3 streams as well.

I installed RealPlayer, but it didn't help me, since I want that CBS (.m3u) stream to work.. I didn't find any interesting netradios working with rtsp protocol
*sigh*
edit:
Dang, I'm stupid.. I got the CBS netradio work when I saved the .m3u as text file, opened it and copy-pasted the given URL inside it ( http://radio.cbs.nu:80/cbs96 ) .. Yey!
I'm using now Pocket Player by Conduits
Now, is there any suggestions which is best stream player (less CPU consuming and bugs, and faster?)

Can I kick it?
bump...........
Yeah man i never got Youtube to work. I installed TCPMP and flash video, soft reset and nothing. I just use VTap. I can search for videos on youtube and watch them.
Look for VTap
All I do is win
I had the same thing. The streaming media player can't really be trusted for youtube it seems. I found a neat little program on the forum which plays youtube video's very well. It's called "Youtubeplay" and can be found here: LINK. I can now watch youtube in the train

Streaming Video to Diamond

Hi,
I currently use VLC to stream video and music from my fileserver to my laptop when away from home.
I noticed that the phone has an application called Streaming Media, but can't seem to get it to pick up the media stream from VLC. Not sure if i'm doing something wrong.
Is there a VLC app or similar for WM 6.1 which allow me to watch these streams?? would make thing a lot easier!
For info, I am connected to the fileserver via Hamachi VPN software!
did u try from VLC RTSP ?
As I know the streaming application comes with Diamond support RTSP, In fact I didn't try it.
I used in the past (with P3300) streaming with SHOUTCAST
(only music) , and open it with TCPMP (CorePLayer today)
There is SHOUTCAST (or ICECAST open source) for TV as well
Try it and let us know
OK,
I tried with VLC and it's working, here is small guide:
1. open file(s) you want to stream
2. select Stream/save and open properties
3. select MMSH and put your Internal IP (192.168.x.x)
or something else (127....)
4. select the port number
5. Encapsulation Method select mp4
6. Video Codec mp4v Bitrate 96kb/s (If you have High
bandwidth you can put higher to get better results ofcorse..)
7. Audio Codec mpga Bitrate 16kb/s (If you have High
bandwidth you can put higher to get better results ofcorse..)
8. Press ok
9. define in your Firewall what u need
(open the port and forward it to local IP, If u using Wifi in your local network so no needs..)
10. with CorePlayer (I think with TCPMP is should work as well) open URL mms://your_host_name : port (without spacing)
and here we go!!
Good luck !!
Right, Have manage to get this working in a fashion, but could only find TCMP to download on here.
I managed to get a a streaming picture, but no sound. Also, the picture kept buffering every 10-15 secs.
Not sure if this had anything to do with using the phones HDPSA connection to stream the film over or not.
Does anyone know where I can download a copy of the coreplayer from for WM6.1 to try.
Has anyone ever tried streaming with Windows Media Encoder to the phones media player? (not too sure if this can be done?)
You should search plugin (s) for TCPMP , it should fix your Audio ,
It's importent to install all on the Device memory, otherwise u may get Audio problems..
or:
http://www.coreplayer.com/
but It cost $$ ...
how much is the coreplayer and is it worth the money?
U can find the price in the site, on the other hand, TCPMP (0.72RC1 ) with all the plugin(s) (aac, ac3, flv) doing the same..

wich version do I need for the diamond? smartphone or Pocketpc? Thanks

Shoutcast streaming player

is there a player out there that can download the shoutcast stations that are operating, and then be able to select and play??
much like PSPradio?
i am getting sick of making playlists for the stations that i want to hear on my computer and sending them to TCMP
Thinking about it, someone could prolly make a simple html that could fish for running streams, and link it directly into TCMP

Ditto. I currently download the *.pls on my desktop and email them to my mobile.
I looked months ago and couldn't find any. I was in the same situation and grew tired of TCMP's interface. I finally purchased Resco Radio since it comes with a list of pre-set stations that I can add to or customize. Plus the UI makes it easy to jump between streams while driving. Still I wish something had native Shoutcast support built in.
i use opera mobile to browse and download the playlists and open them in core player. My Kaiser is paired with my car radio via bluetooth stereo audio. works fine for me.
i use opera browser and core player it works flawlessly. do need to enable coreplayer to play .pls files
just my 2 cents
playboy
yeah there is
if you use pocket player (my favorite music player) u can just open it and browse media and serach under web media for anything and it will show a list of any station da is available under shoutcast and u just click play and it will stream it...its amazing!!!!
Use Conduit Pocket Player 3.6, it is a great peice of software allowing you to make play lists, change skins and search thru ur music like iContact (smooth motion thru the list)
Also one other great tool is the "Music Guide", this has all the different Shoutcast genres with loads of radio stations. I was listening to music which i thought I would never hear
It really is great, get the trial to test

I have been using a piece of software called SelectPlayer. This software offers a diverse selection of streaming radio, including shoutcast. The interface is a little dated, but functionality is certainly there.
Check out http://www.selectradio.com/
I use the Kinoma Free Player. Has a bunch of Shoutcast stations built in.

Yep, both Kinoma Play and Kinoma FreePlay have an always-up-to-date list of all Shoutcast stations built right in.
That's in addition to all Live365 stations, complete Audible audiobook support, 500 on-demand albums from Magnatune, thousands of podcasts, and quite a bit more.

Shoutcast
Why not create your own Shoutcast Server and create your own playlist that can be played remotely....then you could post your ip/station name on this forum and eventually create a list of servers/stations?
