best all around media player?

i have a cingular 8525 and i was just wondering if there was a media player that played mp3s and any video files like avi mpg asx. if theres a lot which one do you guys like the best? if theres just a codec for windows media player thatd be fine as well...or maybe an itunes type player that plays all those files. ive looked but havent found anything yet. all i have found are skins or themes.

Core Codec's TCPMP is by far the best all around media player. Generally plays mp3, ogg, divx, avi, mpeg etc etc. Their website seems down, but thankfully there is a backup site.

TCPMP

Cheers.

WMP is pretty worthless. Its a shame. Anyway in tcpmp's options theres a tab about file type, or maybe association. Check all and it'll be the default player for dern near every file you toss at it.

Cheers.

You need to choose the version that matches your device. Smartphone is for smartphones only rather than devices running full WM or WM Phone Edition. SH3, MIPS, and ARM refer to processor types; select the version that your device has (an XScale processor is a member of the ARM family). The .cab files are install files you put on your device and execute there to carry out the installation. The .exe file is intended to be run on a host PC with installation to your device taking place over an ActiveSync connection; the hosted install file typically includes all the variations with your device telling the host PC which version it needs.

I just recently installed de TCPMP, encoded a avi file and transfered it to my PDA mini SD card and it worked perfectly! The thing is when I exit the TCPMP program...the screen freezes.

Anyone who can help me ?

Hi there - sorry to hi-jack someone else's thread, but i didn't want to clutter up the boards with such a similar question.

I'm running windows mobile 6 on a v1615 (TYTN II) and would like to play mpeg-4 m4a audio files using the windows media player, without converting them.

can anyone tell me where to download a codec for this? please?
i don't really want to install a whole new player such as TCPMP unless i have to...

many many thanks!
