Good, nice quality/sound stream but I do face a few problem when streaming for videos in youtube. 6 out of 10 videos might only work in the streaming, anybody face the same problem? Sometimes it written unkwown format, can't open url or mms protocol not supported. Can it be fixed? But still this is a nice firmware.

Excellent! Much better than the PocketTV prog suppied with the Acer. On my 640x480 300Mhz machine it can only play full res. Xvid at about 15fps but this is much better than I expected and it copes with the frame dropping very well so the videos are still watchable and very sharp. Tips: for underpowered device, recompress your videos in VirtualDub at 50% framerate (use decimation), the result is much nicer than reducing the resolution or playback quality settings. Always enable "Dither" on a 16 bit display like the Acer or you'll get poor tonal rendering.

It won't open on my phone. A sprint htc mogul with WM6 ON IT. It says the file is not a acceptable Pocket PC app. Any help guys?

***** [Dec 4, 2007] by Nicholas using Ipaq 3835
AMAZING!! I had sompy media player before i had this, and didn't get how poor the quality on that software is and how high the quality on this software is. The framerate is amzing, and the Buffering only takes about 1/3 of a second!!

***** [Sep 20, 2007] by Superman using xdaII
It was so amazing! Great sound... great picture... great features. Its excellent! Thanks a lot. Good job.

I have tested 3 media programs on the PocketPC, and this is the best. The other two were Sompy Player and the Windows Media Player that came with WM 2003. I've tested it using .wav and .mp3 for music and it performs great. I've watched three feature films (Eurotrip, Jacka*s, and Borat) and they worked well (They were in the avi. format) I also tested shorter online clips im .mpeg, wmv, and .http extensions with good results.

Many Thanks. Now I can view my videos. Loox N100 is so neat it cries out for apps like this. My only problem has been a warning 'Not enough Buffer memory'.I have tried but not much success. Anyone any ideas ?

Amazing its output quality so powerfull.

***** [Jun 4, 2007] by Clare Leung using hp iPAQ rx1950
I changed to this software after feeling totally frustrated with the built-in windows media player. It is easy to use and can play most of the common video formats and the most important thing is that it's free!!

***** [Jun 1, 2007] by T.P. using Axim X30
I tried a few players for DIVX encoded video, this one was the best.

***** [Jan 26, 2007] by ss2k using 02 XDA II Mini
Fantastic all-in-one multi-codec player! Cut out the memory-hungry skins and other impractical frills. I have only one complaint: I have a playlist with both English-titled and Chinese titled songs filenames and the player plays only those English-titled ones. It's limited in the same way as Winamp. Windows Medial Player - for all its faults - has to be credited for being able to play that kind of playlists. Other than that, TCPMP rocks!

***** [Dec 18, 2006] by Paul S using iPAQ 4150
In trying to play one movie on my iPAQ 4150, I installed every SINGLE DivX play out there. First I installed the Mobile DivX Player from divx.com (http://mobile.divx.com/DivXMobileDownload.xhtml). It played fine, but it had VERY choppy sound. The movie would be completely unwatchable. Next I installed the Pocket DivX Player 0.8 (October 16, 2006) (from freewareppc). This one didn't even play my movie. It said it was an unsupported format. Third, I tried Sompy Media Player v1.0.0328 (March 29, 2006) (from freewareppc). Same scenario as the Mobile DivX player but reversed: sound was ok, but video was choppy as heck. It was basically a slideshow. FINALLY, I tried my last hope TCPMP v0.72RC1 (March 3, 2006). AND IT WORKED!!! WOOHOO!!!! I would STRONGLY recommend everyone first start out with TCPMP, and if it doesn't work as well for you as it did for me, go up the list!

Very good, but the look 'n' feel does let it down. I prefere sompy but its still brilliant and way worth downloading!

***** [Oct 9, 2006] by helyzy using Dell Axim X5 Advanced
This is simply the best. It has never let me down, no faults, no fancy and useless skins, just a barebone power plant :))) És ráadásul magyar. Piszok jó munka! :D

***** [Sep 6, 2006] by SARGETECH using Toshiba E750 2gig CF card
Easy to install and works with almost every file I've thrown at it. It beats the pants off of PocketTV which I thought was the best but this program plays music as well as movies and windows media format video files runs 320x240 great and lots of video adjustment features X-Tra Cool!!!!!

***** [Jun 16, 2006] by Malik using O2 XDA Exec
Amazing! Media player does not strech 320x240 window to 640x480, this does and works great!

***** [Jun 7, 2006] by Janus using LOOX N560
Best. Player. Ever. Almost never failed to play anything for me. The only thing I'm missing is an option for switching subtitles in *.mkv files or any other formats, which support multiple audio/sub streams. Nevertheless the best player there is for Pocket PCs.

***** [May 31, 2006] by Nonenix using ASUS myPAL Xscale 520Mhrz + WM 200Mhrz phone
Great player works on Pocket PC 2003 and Windows Mobile 5 fine ;) Plays all the converted files and with somehuge buffer I managed to play an unconverted movie from an externam USB hard drive (hard stuf *g* all 10 min there were a small buffer reload but man it worked I was saved lookin the last 3 episodes of the 4400 S2 ^^) I only think its a bit sad that the aac suppport was removed due to licensing or fear of license stuff ARRGG OPENSOURCE 4 EVER.

***** [Apr 24, 2006] by downlala using XDA Exec
Tcpmp ran straight away and out-performed windows media when loading an oversized avi from SD card. Was still jumpy but much better. With all the extra functions, file formats and settings (not yet checked out) it should replace media player straight off.

***** [Apr 21, 2006] by IceDragon using HP iPAQ RX3715 / WM2003SE
This was the first media player to actually play my video files which pretty much made my day (or night ;). From the first impression, it's a lot more powerful than most of the players you'd see out there and will sure replace the built-in video players that I currently have. Great job, guys! Many thanks for the freeware product.
