TCPMP WMV9 Fix (Orb Fix)

doc_lee · Mar 16, 2007

Some people are having issues getting WMV9 in TCPMP working with WM6, particularly those of us who are trying to use TCPMP with Orb and are getting a nasty WMV9/WMA9 not supported error. This is because WM6 includes newer versions of the WMV and WMA codecs, which are named differently than WM5's codecs. Orb does work with WMP Mobile 10 and Conduits Pocket Player, but the video is incredibly jerky for some reason which I haven't been able to nail down yet, and I doubt I'll look into the matter anymore now that this works.

The fix is simple...just drag the old WM5 codecs into your Windows/ directory and reinstall TCPMP. After that, you should be able to use TCPMP to watch your orb stream (Windows asx stream on Orb 2.0).

I've included the codecs here in this post. This fix was tested using the Most Beautiful ROM. Let me know if it works for the other ROMs.

Funny, I just found out that I had this problem and here you are... thanks.. Just goes to show the powers of this forum..

Thanks!

Thank You! =)

Now I can watch my news streams again which the crap Windows Media "Player" couldn't play! I don't think you have to reinstall TCPMP though, I just copied the dll files and did a soft reset (probably necessary) and everything works. If only there was a way to stop the 0.81 TCPMP from switching to portrait mode on launch then everything would be perfect...

Edit: just noticed this was a Wizard forum. This fix works with Universal WM6 as well (Jwrightmcps Crossbow ROM Update 2.02.00 WWE).

Thank you very much doc_lee. I was going crazy trying to figure out why my TCPMP wasn't playing sound after I updated my Dash with WM6. Cheers!

http://www.okias.wz.cz/tcpmp/files/language.tgz - copy this file to TCPMP folder(replace old), and WMA(only WMA) audio start working with TCPMP, WITHOUT COPYING ANY NEW .dll file

but for WMV you must copy wmvdecoder.dll

Very cool. I just put these in the /WINDOWS dir on my Alltel PPC 6800 and TCPMP plays WMV videos quite nicely now. Thanks! =)
