The Core Pocket Media Player is the ultimate replacement for Windows Media Player. The software formerly known as BetaPlayer supports a broad range of audio and video codecs out of the .cab, and there are additional codecs available on the TCPMP website.
[adsense:300x250:3:3]TCPMP is the ultimate companion for your Orb account. Windows Media Player has problems with playing multiple songs from a streaming playlist, replacing Windows Media Player with TCPMP as the standard application for streams works around this. Some tweaking is required to have your streams played by TCPMP instead of Windows Media Player:
Associate TCPMP with Windows Media (.asx) in the TCPMP configuration (Options > Settings > Select Page > File Associations)
Use Total Commander to navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\
Shell\Rai\:WMPLAYER
In the String Value 1, replace wmplayer.exe with the path to TCPMP (“\Program Files\TCPMP\player.exe” when you have TCPMP installed in main memory, “\Storage Card\Program Files\TCPMP\player.exe” when you have TCPMP installed on your memory card. Include the quotes!
Perform a soft reset by holding the Power button for 5 seconds
Of course, if you like TCPMP better than Windows Media Player, you can go to the TCPMP configuration to associate more or even all media types with TCPMP.
