Updated!! Mplayer port for Windows Mobile!

[amitv_17]

Hi All,

This is the mplayer (famous linux media player ) port for Windows smartphone . I have tested this with Application unlocked SP5m ( WM6) . It should run on all WM5+ smartphones as well Pocket PCs .

Installation guide..

Unzip all the contents to memory card and run mplayer.exe , All files should be in same folder.

Advantage of mplayer
-- Full support of streaming
-- supports all real media formats including streaming.
-- Supports RV40, RV30, R20 , sipro , cook and atrac codecs.
-- Supports MP4 streaming over RTSP.
-- All flavors of Flash video are supported.
-- Uses coremp4 for MP4 decoding.

TODO:

-- Need to imporve GUI ( current version is just for preview)
-- WMA decoder is not supported ( Need to add windows DMO driver, any help will be great)
-- Need to fix some crashes .


Overclock your tornado to 240 MHz , this will give best result.

I will post the device list with compatibility soon till then you have to hit and try different version on your device.

Regarding high CPU usage on streaming and missing live555 support , this is something I have to debug , will update you soon.

Finally , If you feel mplayer port is useful please donate , It will help me to make Mplayer more useful and powerful.

Hi amitv_17! Great work.
I am russian. When I try to open file with russian name, your plays said that can't find this file, and show me on screen abracadabra, not russian name me the file I try.
Your player don't understand russian font symbols.

Hi,

Absolutely amazing!
Are the codecs all written in software? Or do you use hardware acceleration?

I'm running it on both my Kaiser and Vox. I tried a few flash video files and a mpeg4 file. They all worked well. Unfortunately I got an error when streaming mpeg4 via rtsp. The errors are:
"Server returned 400: Bad request" and then "no stream found to handle url rtsp://192.168.1.26:7070"

With VLC player I can play this stream without problems. Any solution?

And before I forget, let me know your palpay address then I will send you a donation

Cheers

Wowz! I'll frontpage this!

BTW, what makes the port Tornado-only? The entire WinMo coummity would certainly welcome the port!

Wowz, nice to know it's indeed compatible with other models.

BTW, can I relocate this thread to Dev & Hacking so that it gets MUCH bigger exposure?

Great, it absolutely deserves exposure. This is a high potential!
