h.264 issue

[SimplyDemented]

Hi, new to the forums, and couldn't find an "omnia" section, so I guess this is the place to post this.

I just got an omnia and I am having a hell of a time trying to get it to play video.
I have tried:
tcpmp.pocketpc.0.72rc1.cab
tcpmp-0.72rc1-arm-ppc-recomp-03.cab
TCPMPMediaPlayer0.81RC1Beta.cab
divxplayer_PPC_0
coreplayer v1.2.5
coreplayer v1.3
and the instructions listed here http://www.pspmyspace.com/omnia/2008/11/watch-youtube-videos-on-samsung-omnia.html (theres a thread on this site with same post, just links didnt work...)

Long story short, I would love to watch the shows I download that are in mp4 format on this phone, its a big reason I picked this one.

Most of the time, I get errors back to the general extent of "cant play h.264" (even after load h.264.cab). Depending on which version I am using above, I sometimes get the crash.txt on TCPMP, or on the ARM-PPC version, it crashes when I try to open the file.

Any help is REALLY appreciated.

Thanks

*UPDATE*

I did get some video working using the 4 part steps provided in the link above. After some testing, .avi videos I have from 2005 and earlier seem to play no problem. newer .avi and .mp4 still refuse to play though.

I am unsure what could be causing this, but I assume its newer codecs that were used in these videos. Does anyone have any ideas here?

Dunno' how bumping is viewed on this board, but since i'm 3 pages back now, can anyone help with this?

Thanks

I think if you install Flash Lite 3, it should work as long as you view the video in PC/Desktop mode.

You are talking about ONLINE youtube videos right?

Unless it's incompatible with Omnia, although Omnia is WinMo.....it should work for you tube.

Just install the .cab

And open opera, and go to youtube

And click on view in Desktop/PC Mode

Then click on a video.

Update: I didn't read the MP4, AVI part. LOL Sorry.

Have you purchased a full version of Core Player Mobile? I had a symbian phone, for example, and I installed a cracked Core Player Mobile, and it couldn't play the videos or it couldn't install. So I bought the real full latest version and it worked miracle. I am not sure if it is just as good in WinMo though
