Thanks for the input, those resource files took a little bit of work, but graphics, especially in small scale are my specialty. I can scale QVGA skins up to VGA as well. the graphics for the file open icons are basically the same ones as the originals, just in 24 bit vs 4 bit resolution, and the media file now says "CORE" instead of "Beta" and the audio file icon has a better speaker. The only other difference is the undefined video file now has a camcorder on it.

No I'm talking about new icons which I've came across, not the old ones from official release.

Since you specialize in graphics, can i ask you to contribute a bit

First of all tcpmp need's an icon redesign, while surfing on the net I've came across to an nice looking icon for tcpmp (see attacment below), but it needs a bit edditing, like to make transparent background, or rounded corners and scale to smaller sizes. Also could you properly scale attached file open icons to sizes 96x16, and 192x32

So, I'm guessing no one else has ever tried to make their buffer smaller then 5k?

Here is the original 0.14 alpha subs plugin and source. It has the ability to let u view subs on any video driver but it has alot of bugs. U cannot use subs in fullscreen mode only widescreen. Subtitles appear above or below the video and shift to the side in fullscreen. I think it could be alot better if someone could do some work on it. It is more convenient than the subtitle plugin now it just need to be fixed. Hope someone can spend a little time on developing it to wkrk the way it was intended to work.

Can someone please answer me question...Can this version download videos from youtube like the original version did? Also view youtube.com desktop version?

bimbam69 · Apr 1, 2010

@ink718
Sorry for beeing ignored

I'm afraid that any of TCPMP versions can't dowload any of files from internet, they just able to stream files from net.
I'm guessing that you are talking about tcpmp with flash video bundle installed together???. If its the case I'm afraid that flash video bundle plugin is outdated now, because youtube makes changes in their site very frequently.
There is an alternative though, a WVD app get it here
You need to have installed TCPMP which can play flv files (like the one from first post

) and associate it with .m3u files.

No Problem, here is what I came up with, please tell me if this is works for you. I replaced resources 111, and 113 in interface.plg, using your images (I did spruce up the blank file though) and also made the icon you requested. I've included test compilings of both the interface.plg file, and the 'clean' version of TCPMP for immediate evaluation. Alt. Interface 2's .plg is the same as the one in the ICONs ZIP, but the speaker for audio control is blue instead of yellow, which do you like better?

(The Alt. Interface ZIP contains another interface.plg file, but there is a small difference in the video file icon, can you spot it? Hint: it's an homage to the original...)

bimbam69 · Apr 1, 2010

Thanks, for your work. I like the blue speaker instead of yelow.
Tested that interface.plg and noticed an issue, the file open icons has random pink pixels around them, so making white background of that whole image could solve it, since file open dialog has white bacground.

P.S noticed that difference

the video icon says "core"

You probably saw some issues with the 111 resource, I shrank it from the original, the pink pixels are there because there is a certain hue that most programs inserting graphics will see as invisible, if you have a round object against a square background, if the background is this hue, when displayed, the object will appear to have no background, the problem happens when you use a resizing program with interpolation, and you get those funny colors at the edges. I will fix that right away, and post the fixed files in my original post.

(UPDATE: all files in post 268 fixed, BTW, do you like the version with the word "CORE" on the video file icon or not?)

bimbam69 · Apr 1, 2010

Yeah i like the core one, but i wont see it

because i have 240x320 screen. Icons now fixed, didn't knew about that transparency stuff

OK, here are Final Versions of the interface.plg mods, I included the blue and yellow speaker versions, just on the off chance someone is running a device skinning program like Wisbar Advance, and needs extra visibility

Does anyone know of any regeditors for pocket pc that gives the option to set permissions? I have tried several and none let u set permissins like u can on a pc. I know the question seems off topic but I actually need to set permissions on my TCPMP build.

Osprey00 · Apr 2, 2010

porkenhimer,
Are you even sure that Windows CE supports registry permissions? I've just done a bunch of googling and can't find a thing on it. I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't. I'm pretty sure that CE doesn't support file permissions, so no registry permissions would likely go along with that. If what you're trying to do is prevent TCPMP from modifying the registry, you could always export the key the way that you want it and have a little MortScript run TCPMP and, after it exits, delete the key and import the export that you made.

bimbam,
Unit Zer0 already did one version of the Core icon for you that's probably suitable for embedding in the executable (where I imagine that alpha transparency isn't supported), but if, for whatever reason, you're interested in one with alpha transparency, here's one. Also included is the full-size .png so that you can make any size that you need (or use as a web graphic). To make your own icon, just download the free IcoFX.

EDIT: I tweaked it some more and made a version with the word "CORE" replaced with "TCPMP" (makes more sense to me, since this isn't really CorePlayer), if you're interested. Both are included.

Unit ZER0 · Apr 2, 2010

Here are Icons and test player.exe compilings of Osprey00's images.

Yea the TCPMP with FVB together. I tried the WVD app but its difficult and also can't view the desktop version. I wish some developer would update the FVB so we can have a solid youtube player. Thanx!

bimbam69 · Apr 2, 2010

@ink718
I guess that's imposible to improve FVB, cause it uses special plugin for internet explorer and there is no source code of it availiable, also one can try to contact original developer and ask to update it

.

bimbam69 · Apr 2, 2010

Thanks Unit Zero and Osprey00

Thanks you guys, I'll put those to good use

Osprey00 · Apr 2, 2010

Unit ZER0,
You ended up cutting off much of the drop shadow that I added when you cropped the icons to 111x111. I'm guessing that you didn't notice that or you wouldn't have done it. I don't think that bimbam should use those because enough of the shadow is cut off to not look very good. If you need different sizes for the .ico file than are in the .ico that I uploaded, I'd suggest using my original images without cropping them any (since there's nothing more to crop without affecting the image). If the shadow is some kind of problem or bimbam would prefer an image without it, I can upload that, though the image looks awfully flat without it.

porkenhimer · Apr 2, 2010

Will there ever be a 320x320 skin?
