TCPMP | OMG!!! Now FULL Video on our Treo
Update Nov 06 - The Core Pocket Media Player (TCPMP) has now been further upgraded in a full commercial version called CorePlayer and available for both PalmOS and Windows Mobile Treo Smartphones.
There's a new application that is sure to rock a boat or two in the Treo community and it is very good news indeed for all Treonauts who like me may have been waiting to take their video-on-the go experience to the next level...
I've just finished evaluating a new open source (completely free) media player called The Core Pocket Media Player (TCPMP) and I can tell you that although it hasn't even come out of alpha testing yet that this is one monster of a media player - particularly when it comes to video. It has been as close to 'video Nirvana' on my Treo 650 as I believe I'm likely to get.

TCPMP supports all the usual video formats such as .AVI (DIVX/XVID) and .MPG but additionally and uniquely also offers playback for .OGM (OGG media video) and .MKV (Matroska) - basically it can play any video file that you can see fit to throw at it. Moreover, it can also play music in various formats although the interface experience is a very basic one and at any rate you're unlikely to use it as your main or even secondary music player. The only thing currently lacking is AC3 audio support. The various existing supported codecs include:
Audio codecs:
- Mpeg 1 LayerIII (mp3)
- Ogg Vorbis
- Musepack
- Adpcm, uLaw
Video codec:
- DivX
- XviD
- Mpeg4-SP (plus B-frame support)
- Mpeg1
- M-JPEG
However all of this is not by a wide margin the most important bit of news about TCPMP. The best part is that our days of having to re-encode each of our video files for playback on a 320x320 or other small handheld screen size are gone. That's right, you have to do exactly zero, nada, niente to playback any video currently on your hard drive and view it on your Treo. Just copy the file to your SD card and you can start watching it.

As I mentioned previously, TCPMP's interface is nothing particularly pretty to look at but to be honest with this video performance it could not have one at all and I wouldn't care less - just let me enjoy the fantastic playback. The main screen offers you the standard backward/play/forward buttons, a full screen button to access the audio, video and general preferences. Nothing more is needed.
I tested TCPMP with a couple of 700MB video files encoded at a high bitrate and 576x304 resolution and another at 624x336. Both large screenshots in this post are full size 320x320 ones of these clips on my Treo and as you'll be able to appreciate the quality is absolutely stunning.

I am ecstatic to report that I had absolutely no problem loading these files, watching them and fast forwarding through them in the highest quality that you can imagine on our small Treo screen with full lip sync and no video image stuttering whatsoever. If this is not a milestone in Treo video playback then I don't know what is.
I've spent the better part of my day demoing this to anyone within eyesight to make sure that I haven't been dreaming the whole thing up. I admit that I'm still a little overwhelmed. TCPMP is absolutely a_m_a_z_i_n_g and following my post yesterday I guess that now our Treo can also be considered among the best portable video players that money can buy.

The site seems to be down. Can anybody upload it some where and place a link to it?
Thanks,

Are you running the program from your 650 or from your SD card? I am running GoodLink for my corporate Exchange Server and it is a memory hog. I am running everything else from my 1GB (32X) SD card using PowerRun. If I can run it from the card, that would be sweet.
Hi Tony,
Thanks for reminding me to check that... Glad to report that after moving TCPMP to my SD card with PowerRun the performance remains completely unchanged.
TCPMP only occupies 1MB of memory and because I use multiple 1GB SD card I prefer to keep the application on-board.
I can't wait for 2GB SD cards to become more widely available and even cheaper so that I can travel with 3 or 4 movies at a time.
Very cool indeed!
Cheers, A.
Here's the links that you people are looking for ok :) I have it and it works great EVEN in alpha!!!
Now they do have another web site, they are still working on so it's not up all the way yet,
Here is the latest version's download:
http://picard.exceed.hu/tcpmp/tcpmp.palmos.UNSTABLE.0.63.zip (with aac)
http://picard.exceed.hu/tcpmp/tcpmp.palmos.without.aac.UNSTABLE.0.63.zip (without aac)
great player! i love the preamp setting.. works great with my movies that have low volumes after using nero recode. if i didn't already purchase kinoma, i would've made this my primary video player
Does anyone know of a good program that will convert a 4 gig dvd small enough to store on my 1 gig sd card? Or how to do it without purchasing an app?
I use Pocket-DVD Studio for Palm myself: http://www.pqdvd.com :)
Cheers Andrew!
I agree on the 2GB cards, though my USB adapter is very small and very inexpensive; I am still looking forward to the 2GB version that directly adapts to USB. Ultimate portability and flexibility.
Will this work if I download to my mac? I apoligize if this seems ignorant on my part. Thanks.
Traut,
Absolutely, TCPMP is an application running on your Treo not your computer.
Cheers, A.
dafttreo,
I didn't test on a 600 but there's no reason that it wouldn't work - naturally the performance on the 650 will be better + the screen resolution will make for a completely different experience.
Cheers,
Andrew
Sorry, I'm a novice . . . . what's the diff between the "acc" and "without acc" versions? Is that all I need to install? What about the huge file titled "betaplayer" -- what do I do with that?
What an excellent find!
One question -- I installed TCPMP and loaded a few video files. When I play them back, they all are very choppy and slow. Is this a memory issue or an encoding issue? Any ideas?
Top Billing,
I had the same issues.... I finally re-encoded my test files down to a lower resolution (i.e. 320 x something) until it worked... & worked like a charm it did. VERY cool app!! Reality is encoding at a higher res. is a waste of space anyway so knock down the res and enjoy!
Hi all, thanks for the great info. I've only had the Treo 650 for 3 days but the first thing I wanted to do was to get it to play a dvd movie. TCPMP is awesome. However, I did a test and tried calling my Treo while the movie was playing and all I get is a busy signal. Is this correct? Can I set a preference so that the incoming calls interrupt the movie? thanks.
Sorry for such a basic question, but am new with my Treo. I put some mp3 files on my card, and now here is the simple question: how the heck can I delete them once they are on the card??
I have downloaded the tcpmp and it will run any movie i throw at it. However, it constantly pauses and remains choppy but the audio will continue. I have a treo 600 and i store the movies on the sd card and the player on my treo. Is this why its so slow? Is it the 600? and help would be great.
What other files need to be installed for TCPMP to work? I am having trouble playing "Avi" files.
Any advice
I've had my Treo 650 for one week now and am in love!
I use AutoGK to convert my DVDs to divx format (for archival purposes) and found that TCPMP works great with the resulting files. Even better, both options are free and relatively painless.
I tried playing unmodified movie clips from Casio Z750 and Canon SD500 on TCPMP 0.65 on my Treo 650 and the files were skipping:
http://discuss.treocentral.com/showthread.php?t=84727
So much for not needing to re-encode to play files on TCPMP...
I have it running on my 1gb card. DVD pocket studio works awesome. The movies are choppy on the 600 but the 650 runs smooth.
Please help a treo Newbie! I have installed The Core Pocket Media Player -- love it -- but can't seem to copy my videos to my treo without the Palm Desktop or QuickCopy software CONVERTING the video to another format. I must be missing something here... how can I copy a video to my treo 650 without converting it to another format? I want to view it native, in TCPMP, but haven't been able to do that so far. Any help out in treo land for a new user? :)
I can't get the sound to work, though the picture looks great. Any ideas?
I've been using it for some time and it just works. But, .avi files don't play the audio part. Is there any free software to convert .ami to .mpeg? Or is there a codec I need for .AVI?
With the latest version of TCPMP I too couldn't get the audio, even when I added the MP3 plugin that's part of the TCPMP ZIP file... until I added the Camera plugin, which has an audio codec or two. Try that!
I am having trouble playing files once I encode them with Nero. The video is fine on my treo 600 but I get an error message stating
Error:
Player: Audio codec (Mpeg4 AAC Audio, AAC0) not supported by the player!
I have installed all the codecs for the player. Can someone please help me?
If you're having trouble with choppiness on a T600, try reencoding the video to a lower resolution. The closer you get to 160x160, the better. The files/resolutions are probably too large for the T600 to handle efficiently. I chopped mine down and haven't had a problem since.
To reencode video, try PocketDivxEncoder:
It'll reencode different video formats, plus DVDs. And it's FREEWARE!

Ok folks, here's my dilemma. How do I get the dvd from the player on my laptop to the tcpmp? I am extrememly new at this and would like some help. Please:)
Here is a guide to convert a DVD
http://www.palmfocus.com/fairuse.php
Thank you so very much. I greatly appreciate it. I have the program downloaded and ready to roll.
If you are looking for a MAC encoder , to get stuff on to your treo, this just rocks.
it will encode straight from any DVD, crop even to any format, many that are supported by tcpmp.
I have a Treo 650 that I have downloaded TCPMP on. I have been trying to download some samples from PDAVideos web page (Matrix, 2fast2furious) to see how it works since I have heard not only is the quality impressive, but TCPMP is supposed to run pretty much any video. I have downloaded the samples to my sd card, since I do not have any movies on my desktop. I read an article on running movies on a Palm, and found he suggested if I do not have a card reader, then I should change the name of the *.pdb file to an *.avi file once it is on the card. I did that and it now shows up as a file that can be opened when running TCPMP, but when I try to open it, an Error pops up and states this is an "unknown file format". I have also tried the suffix *.ogg, *.ogm, *.mpg etc. trying to find what will help me run these samples. I have never tried to watch DVDs on my Treo and am excited about the prospect. I just can't get there. What am I missing?
Has anybody done a TCPMP + Treo 650 battery life test? The new video iPods are good for up to 2 or 3 hours of video playback. I'm curious how long the Treo would run...
Well, I'll answer my own question: I just played the new Family Guy movie from SD card for 4 hours (looped) on my fully charged Treo 650, and I'm only down to 50% power. I wouldn't have believed it myself, but it looks like 6-8 hours of straight video play are entirely possible. And this was an unoptimized 700MB DivX-encoded .AVI which also looks great on my 12' projector screen.
Why do I want a video iPod again?
Note: I did have the sound turned off, as I'm at work, and I turned off Bluetooth as well, as I was getting interruptions from BT connecting to my laptop. The phone radio, however, I left turned on.
I have downloaded everything in my path and I am still having trouble getting video to my phone. I search the dropdown options and find video previously on my device. They play the visual but no audio. I am wondering if this sounds familiar to anyone and if there is any suggestions to what I need to do next to start getting video on my treo??
Hi big brothers, I just bought a Treo-600.
Can I read my hotmail or yahoo inbox on it?
How do I type "_" (underscore) using Treo keypad? I have found it ok so far.
Can anyone suggest way to secure multimedia files from being used and deleted?
Thanks, nice blog
Awesome program ... just downloaded v.66 and it installed like a charm and plays beautifully ... best Treo program I've seen so far
I used handbrake to convert a movie, the video is fine, but TCPMP doesn't support AAC audio, and that is the format Handbrake converts to. Is there another free MAC program that i can use to convert dvds?
Ant - TCPMP does not officially support the AAC plugin but you can find one here:

So I downloaded the newest version and have it up and running on the treo. The problem I have is when I convert the dvd to an avi file using kheegs's post from above, and hot sync it with my memory card, it comes up as an asf file and the player won't play asf files. Can anybody help me out?
Hello, i use tcpmp on my tréo 650. it works fine but i have a little problem. I have always a soft reset when i turn off the application. What can i do ??
Thanks for comment
Hi Im trying to use tcpmp on my 650 but when i try to sync it into my 650 it says theres no file to handle this app what do I do ?
Re: Your Wishes Are My Command Says Treo
VoiceCall is exactly the same product as the discontinued VoiceDialerPro from VoiceIT Technologies. Toysoft took it over and promises "new features soon."
VoiceCall/VoiceDialerPro is a real pain to set up but works far better, IMHO, than the newer VoiceDialIt from VoiceIT Technologies.
Lately I find the Treo is getting slow. Eg on the messaging using the phone, the message history some very slowly. Also the tend to hang more often now. Is it the same with others, or just my phone. I understand the 600 have this problem also.
I am new owner of a treo 650 and fairly ignorant to how to utilize it's functions. I think it is cool that the phone can play dvd's. I purchase pocket dvd studio to copy a dvd. Do I need a player application to view it on my Treo because I can't get it to work in Pic's and Videos
Please help me get audio working with TCPMP! I followed all the directions to get it working (including installing the mpeg4 plugin)and have video but no audio. I tried installing the tcpmp_aac_plugin and it still won't work. I tried downgrading from .71 to .66 and no luck. I have no idea how to uninstall things from my Treo 650. Please help, this is so frustrating it has driven me to tears.
When I heard about TCMPM I was ecstatic - but figuring out how to make it work was problematic and I offer these suggestions for newbies like me.
1. Download Fair Share to your computer
2. Download TCMPM - either to your card or your TREO
3. Copy a launcher to the card. I found the standard launcher inadequate, so took just the launcher file from zlauncher.
4. Run your video through FairShare. It is virtually automatic, and the only thing you have to choose is the resolution. Others on discussion boards run at 700 - I've been running at 300-400 - the only issue is how much memory you want to use. I kinda think of it as like a camera - you can still get a good picture (particularly for the small screen) with low resolution.
4. Having gotten that far, where are the movies? Save them from FairShare to a dedicated file on your PC, then drag them to your card.
5. So, where are they? This is the little trick. When you run TCMPM on your machine, "click" the TCMPM logo in the upper left corner, then choose slog, and voila, you can choose what movie to play.
When I finally figured this all out (after many hours of frustration) I was ecstatic!
Your mileage may vary depending on the decoder, but straight MPEG1 files from EyeTV (Mac TV tuner) work just great. However, I usually transcode with the "PSP Movie" setting and get good tradeoff in quality/size.
Any suggestions on tracking down 'Fair Share?' I can't find any reference of it. I have TCMPM installed, but I don't know how to get video from a dvd to my quick install...
Treo Rocks %)
Got it! Not Fair Share, 'Fair Use Wizard' It is free and works fine.

I am trying to play Windows Medial Video file (created with Windows Movie Maker) on the Treo 650 with TCMP, but failed. Help!
WellFargo bank account access on Treo 650... I just upgraded from a Treo 600 (Sprint) to a Treo 650 - Verizon and now I cannot access my bank account info on WellsFargo.com. Does anyone have any idea why and/or a solution to allow me access now?
I downloaded The Christmas Party episode of The Office from itunes and transfered it over to my 650 but TCPMP won't play it. Just get the cover photo. What should I do? Thanks.
hey..i'm really frustrated. i was happy with the tcpmp..but now i can't get the audio part, the same problem alot of ppl have. something about AAC decocer not found. is there any links to dl it from?? thanx..plz!!
DVD to Treo650 using Pocket DVD Wizard HELP PLEASE
I've search everywhere but can't seem to figure out why I can't get my file on my SD card.
Used Pocket DVD wizard to convert movie and created file. It seems straight forward and easy to use BUT when I go to drop it on the "quick install" an error message says "unable to add "dvdtrial.avi" to External Volume.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong.
I will be internally grateful for your feedback.
I have been using TCPMP for about a month now with an ACC file that I found on the web. Now just the other day I went watch a video on my phone and I get "ERROR: Player: MPEG4 ACC Audio decoder not included!.....) What happened?
Come to find out I needed to load Card Export II and it worked like a charm.
This solved the problem I had when I ran Fairuse and Pocket DVD Wizard
Help. I am truly a novice here. I have downloaded a movie from tivo to my computer and now want to put it on my sd card. I don't have dvd on this computer so cannot run pqdvd. Any suggestions?
Andrea - You can use a program like TVHarmony to encode your .tivo files that you transferred from your tivo to your PC. Using this program, you can make the files smaller both in screen size and in storage size. Try this link to find the program. Hope that helps.

I love TCMP, but none of the links listed above seem to work to download it. Is there another mirror site?
Thank you all for the useful tips and comments. I have downloaded TCPMP on my Treo 650 and have the following questions:
1.) How can one delete the files that have been downloaded? I don't seem to find any delete option within TCPMP itself. I guess one could delete the files using a card reader on a PC, but still, it would be great if I could figure how to delete directly from my Treo while using TCPMP.
2) I have been having trouble opening up some pictures (jpg files). I get the following error message " Error: MJEP: This type of motion-JPEG format is not supported". However, this is weird because I can open other pictures which are in exactly the same format and TCPMP recognizes them without a problem. All of the files are pictures I've taken with my digital camera which I've downoladed on my memory card. Any ideas why TCPMP is being selective on what it is opening?
I would appreciate any thoughts/tips on the above. Thanks.
I am a Macintosh user and currently using Handbrake to convert DVD to MPEG4. I can watch the video on my TREO 650 but with no audio sound at all.
It always show the message:
(ERROR:Player:MPEG4AAC Audio Decoder not included. It was removed from official install package because of interllectual property).
Can someone help me please, Thank you so much! I really appreciate!
Harry - TCPMP no longer officially supports the AAC audio decoder.

Cheers, A.
I've seen the same question asked several times with no answer.. I am having the same issue. How do you get the converted file to your sd card in a manner that is conducive to playback with the core player? Using the palm desktop software gets the file to the card but converts it to an .asf extension which the player won't read. Trying to drag the file from my harddrive directly to the card causes errors. I noticed the card is formatted to FAT file system is this an issue? Should it be FAT32 or will the 650 even read that format? It's really great to know my 650 can playback .avi files.. it'd be even greater to actually see it working.. aaaaarrrrrrgggh! :)
I got a treo 650 and it's so great i love it. i also got a data cable for it, i update and download stuff for it every day if you need any help with you mail me
hey guys can any one help me i tried downloading the player but im not finding it on the treo 650 can any one tell me how to download it and doest it play avi files ill be very great full thanks guys
Many have ask this question and no one has given a response. Pls help us! I too am looking how to get the .avi files to the treo650 without using the 'quick install' which converts it to .asf file and tcpmp doesn't recognize format. HELP!
Any suggested software to convert DVR MS files for play back on Treo 650 with TCPMP?
For all who are trying to figure out how to get .avi (or whatever format) to your treo the fastest and easiet is to buy a SD card reader (bought mine from CirCity for $14.) Then just drag & drop file to SD card, then pop it in your treo and viola, it's there.
ok, i used AutoGK to convert my video to smaller avi (divx codec) format, but I get no sound when playing on tcpmp. I loaded most of the plugins, including camera. the avi file plays on windows media player on desktop fine. Do I have to use headset? I would have thought it plays thru speaker or regular phone earpiece. I'm more that halfway there!
Crystal Video To Audio Converter
It copies the audio digitally-not through the soundcard-which enables you to make perfect copies of the originals. you can play your video file withCrystal Video to Audio Converter,also, you can just cut part of your video file and then convert this part to audio file. It's fast, easy to use while powerful.
TCPMP is the greatest! I followed one of the simple tutorials out there for using AutoGK and I am watching The Matrix with clear stereo sound through my headphones as we speak! The file size is a nice 450mb and preserves the widescreen format. Yes, it's a little small but you get used to it with good sound. The picture is brilliant and smooth! I can load up 3 of my own full movies on a 2gb card and enjoy my business trips watching the movie I choose. As a bonus, a person on the train this morning couldn't believe it and kept asking me questions about my treo.
treo and TCPMP rule. I have been trying many days to get some applications to work. TCPMP is the only one that got all my different movie formats to work all the way...
does tcpmp run on treo 700
if not what video format and software do i have to use to watch video on my treo 700
I'm having problems running it on my 700p. I took a video in avi format with my Casio Camera, and tried playing it using the latest version, .72RC1. It runs, but unfortunately, there's a lot of skipping and stuttering. Anyone else experience that? Any suggestions on how to fix that?
I downloaded the TCMP program and it works great! The Pocket DVD program I bougt takes a little while to rip a dvd but you can set the PC to be turned off when it is done. I usually get 3-2 hr movies on a 2GB SD and the quality is pretty decent. Occasionally during a big action scence you may get a littel bit of pixels but nothing to be too upset with.
By the way even though this is a discussion based on the video aspect of the Treo can anyone direct in how to fix a camera problem I am having with my 650? It seems when I try to take a picture and there is too much light on the object (like at a concert last night) the surrounding photo is nice and clear but the person or object under the light looks like a white blur... are there any light filtering programs I can download or any preferences in the Treo 650 I can change to eliminate this problem? A guy in front of me had a Treo and his screen did not seem to have this problem?
Ok I'm a treo 700p newbie. I downloaded TCPMP and I'm wondering how I can make it my primary video viewer. like -- if I'm going to a streaming video link online -- or streaming audio, how do I make tcpmp open it and not the default program?
Here's the reverse question... how can the videos shot ON a Treo be played on a PC or Mac?
Greg - The free Quicktime http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html is the best option to view your Treo videos on a PC or Mac.
Cheers, A.
Holy Cow! I can't tell y'all how cool this is! I used DVD Shrink 3.2 with Auto Gordian Knot and play it on my Treo 650 with this TCPMP! The picture is great, it's in widescreen. Who needs a portable DVD player??
Not sure why so many people are having problems setting this up. It works perfectly for me. This is how I have been using it.
1. Downloaded Auto Gordan on my desk top
2. Installed TCPMP on my Treo 650
3. Copied DVD at 320x320 using Auto Gordon into video folder on my hard drive
4. Copied into a 1 gig SD card
5. Watched the movies!
Excellent product, great picture.
Successfully installed on Treo 650..can anyone tell me if it will open a windows media video clip and if so how to do so? Thanks
Does anyone have the same problem with my TCPMP? I use "Pocket DVD Wizard" to copy the DVD and transfer it to my Treo 650 via mini SD card.
When I play the movies the video always pauses every 10-15 seconds and the sound doesn't even work?
Is there any way to fix this?
What is the best video converter to use for movies?
Whats the best file to play, divx or mp4?
Fairly new to treo, I've downloaded TCMPMP AND AM USEING FAIR USE TO CONVERT MY DVD'S
BUT EVERY TIME I TRY TO MOVE MOVIE TO THE CARD IT TELLS ME IT CANNOT COPY BECAUSE O COPYRIGHT PROTECTION.
CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME OUT AND TELL ME HOW TO MOVE MOVIE TO MY SD CARD
THANK'S
I had problems using TCPMP to play movies but now I got it to work.
1. I used AutoGK (FREE) to convert the movies.
2. Take SD card out of TREO 650 and insert into a card reader.
3. Copy movie directly onto the CARD.
4. Remove CARD from reader and insert into TREO 650.
5. Play movie just fine using TCMP.
Since I am new to using a TREO I thought I had to use HotSync to store the movie on the CARD (movies never played right).
rip movie(just the movie) with shrink - divx it 224X160 or 192X144 or any screen size that will compress a 2 hr./ 12 min. movie to 300 MB ( in this case, I use the movie "The Alamo". - watchable and neat - tcpmp is a real first class application.
Just converted a movie using FairUse Wizard. I copied the .omg file on to my 2GB SD Card. When I put it back in my Treo I cant see the file.
Can anyone tell me where I can get a codec so that I can see the .omg file and play it using TCMP on my Treo?
Thanks
HI, how come after I load one movie on my SD card with no problem, I receive a msg saying that the card is write-protected and for me to change that or insert another disc? Is there a certain way I should format the card? Thanks in advance for your help!
I see that no one has answered Ankur's question in post 85:
>Ok I'm a treo 700p newbie. I downloaded TCPMP and I'm wondering how I can make it my primary video viewer. like -- if I'm going to a streaming video link online -- or streaming audio, how do I make tcpmp open it and not the default program?<
I have the exact same question. I want TCPMP to be the default video viewer for all streaming video and any other video content I find while web browsing on my Treo. I have searched the web for solutions, but so far have come up empty (except for solutions relating only to the Windows Treo). Any experts out there with some suggestions for Palm Treos?
Thanks.
Is there another site that is available to download the video player? I can't seem to find it for my 650. I went to www.coreplayer.com and it is temporarily unavailable. Let me know! I am pumped about getting this!
Jim - CorePlayer is now available at the Treonauts Software Store http://software.treonauts.com/product.asp?id=9039

I downloaded the file and followed the install.htm file instructions and copied over the PRC files with no problem.
This program is awesome on my treo 680. MP$ files take up little space and I can have 2 on my 1g card.
I use Handbrake for Mac to convert the video. Fantastic.

Hi, what Treo model do you use? I downloaded TCPMP and am patiently awaiting a 2 GB sd memory card to start putting DVDs and MP3s on... I have a Treo 600 will it work okay on that? Also I downloaded TCPMP version 0.72RC1 is that any different than the one listed here?
Thanks,

I can download video from WAP sites on my 700wx my friend cannot download the same link on a Treo 650.
I know it has a camera but does the 650 download video(as in 3gp, wmv formats etc...)
I do a lot of web design and i'm on the go. I'm looking for adobe flash for my mac and treo. anyone?
This is great, but I have to admit I think the iPhone is going to do better and have a lot more options when it comes to media and entertainment. The browsing on the iPhone is great, and the quality of video and music excellent. The general usability, as well, is wonderful, and the iPhone is probably going to set some new standards which I'm excited about. Hopefully, other media / mobile devices will catch on and someone out there will release something much much better!
Ok so I have been at this all day and found a FREE easy way to view video using the standard Media player on my Treo 650.
First get yourself a movie converter, something like this: http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/19731 (I use a Mac). Convert your video to these settings:
File Format: 3GPP
Video: MPEG 4 Video
Image Size: 320x240 QVGA
Data Rate: 200 Kbits/sec
Frame Rate: 30 frames/sec
Key Frame: Every 24 frames
----------------------------
Audio: AMR-NB Speech
Data Rate: 12.200 Kbps
Channels: Mono
Output Sample Rate: 8.000 kHz
Frames per Sample: 5
----------------------------
The file size should be in the 100Mbs but that shouldn't be too bad if you have a 2Gig mem. (SD) card.
All you have to do now is:
* Save the .3gp file to your mem (SD) card's DCIM folder.
* Go to the Media player select your mem (SD) card and you will see the movie icon.
If you want a smaller video size then change the Data Rate to something around 64 kbit/sec.
I hope this helps!
