Can anyone tell me how to make HTC Album use Coreplayer instead of WMP when viewing videos? I assume it's a reg edit, but I can't find it. If this is already somewhere in the forum, I apologize, but I have run clean out of search terms to try. Thanks in advance.

With a reg editor
HLM > Software > HTC > Biotouch > MediaHubMini
You can edit shortcuts etc ...

please delete more relevant answer given
i dont have core player installed on my device. i did a quick search in a couple of sites. the only thing i found is the following:
"
To make Coreplayer your default player for video (and/or audio):
Open Coreplayer>menu>Tools>preferences
Click "select page", then tick the video and/or audio and image files you wish to make it the default viewer of."
this isn't a permanent solution, but guess it might be useful until u find the relevant registry entry

Thanks for the responses, guys. Unfortunately, I had already changed all the file associations (as Jackster suggested) and that didn't work. Also, I have already tweaked the registry under
HKLM > Software > HTC > Biotouch > MediaHubMini
However, I'm not trying to open Coreplayer when I click on "Videos" in the cube - I still want to use HTC Album there. Rather, I want Coreplayer to play the video when I make a selection from within HTC Album instead of WMP.
I looked over the reg entries in
HKLM > Software > HTC > HTCAlbum
and found 'default_viewer'. I changed the value from 0 to 1 to see what would happen, but it had no effect. Any other suggestions? Thanks!

Sorry it didn't work,
I also checked the reg entries and thought maybe changing the value of the default viewer would do, but apparently it doesn't.

I assume that after making the change you will have to softReset because TouchFlo is already in memory and will not read registry values each time an action is required, so this is the way to refresh and make him using the new settings.

If you are referring to my attempt to change the default_viewer value from 0 to 1, I actually did soft reset after that to see if anything would change, but it didn't.
I'm not saying that there isn't a value that would work under that reg entry, I'm just saying that I don't know what it should be. I just know that changing it from 0 to 1 has no effect. Thanks for your responses! :)

try soft reset by using any therd party software, like psShutXP, instead of reset hole.

Tried it using AEButton Plus - still no change. Thanks anyway! :)

Hello,
I'm also looking for a way to launch TCPMP instead of WMP from the HTC (video) Album. I already tried these changes (regedit)... but still no change (except an error message when clicking the "video" button on the cube : TCPMP is loaded directly, without launching the HTC Album video and the error box : "File not found! -mode:camera -type:video").
Sorry for re-launch this post, but seems to be the only one (recent) dedicated to this issue.
Did any "Touch settings" worked properly with TCPMP / HTC Album (video) ?
If yes, is it the only way to launch TCPMP properly from the HTC Album ?
Thanks for your help :)
[EDIT] : I just tried the "Touch Settings" software, but nothing better... TCPMP is loaded directly with the same error message :(
