Playing Video on the Q 9h??? - Motorola Q Forum

Yeo · 11-25-2007, 01:42 AM

I have been browsing around for some time, and I cant find a program that it lets me play youtube or similar videos on the moto 9h (ATT, WM 6.0, WMP 10).
Also I have problem playing 3gp videos on windows media player 10. I can hear the sound but i cannot see the video.

any other programs that i can use instead of windows media player?
any websites or tips where i can watch youtube videos?

thanks by the way.

PS: any other good programs that I can download for this toy will be appreciated.

TCPMP is a great free media player.
Get the 0.72RC1, and then you can use it's youtube plugin to be able to view youtubes videos with.
I'd also recommend getting the AAC audio plugin for TCPMP so you can play MPG4s with it.
TCPMP just smokes WMP in playing videos.

Another beautiful free program is PocketNesterPlus, which will allow you to play NES games, which you can also get free. Games like SuperMarioBros, Pacman, DonkeyKong, Tetris, StreetFighter, etc.... 2000 NES Roms to choose from for free.

Just search this great forum for the links to those things.
I would just provide the links for you but I'm posting from my Q.
Maybe later on if you still can't find those links to those programs I'll help you out further, or just post saying which links you couldn't find and I'm sure another member will help you out in a flash..lol

Only problem is those 2 great features that work on the original Q work terribly on the new Q9h Global.

The nes emulator as with the blackjack is almost unplayable because you cant press 2 buttons at the same time. For ex. you cant hold diagnol and shoot in Contra, you cant hold the run fast button & jump in Mario bros. It is pretty unplayable just like the samsung Bj.

Youtube appears to work great the picture quality is amazing but every time it locks up after a minute or so and never rebuffers or starts again. And it has nothing to do with data speed as mobitv and CV streaming video work perfect.

I beleive these 2 must have programs function defectively somehow because of the new hardware on the Q9h but if anyone has had a more positive experience please do let me know.

Every time i try to install TCPMP, i always get an error saying the program is not compatible with windows mobile 6.0, is there a way an specific way to install it?

I will try the NES emulator seems like fun

THANKS for all your answers

Truly a bummer if these won't work on the Q 9h or Windows Mobile 6...

Perhaps it was by design so as to not allow 3rd party softwares at all...OR ATLEAST CONTROL IT'S LIMIT

to Duke, & Yeo as well...

I just read this from another thread. Maybe something you guys can look into...maybe it'll work for you.

Thanks for all you guys help. I guess i have to wait until more 3rd party software comes for wm 6.0

Not the answer to the Youtube question, but I finally feel like this is the solution to the biggest issue I've have with watching videos on a mobile device.
Problem for me has been no "fast forward" or "rewind". This is still the case with WM Player.

I installed the TCPMP player and AAC audio plugin.

I rippped a full length DVD movie using Spb Mobile DVD to its Output format: "XVID (Beta Player, TCPMP)". Processed on PC, copied to TF (SD adaptor).
Plays perfectly. Fast forward as far as I like. Haven't encountered any error messages.

All that can be done with standard AVI and MPG4s as well.
And TCPMP has a settings adjustment that allows you to jump forwards or backwards in whatever amounts you want.... for instance I have both forwards and backwards to jump in 10 second intervals. And I have fast forward set for 200 percent of normal speed.
