Guest Lojt Posted December 3, 2002 Report Share Posted December 3, 2002 This is how it works: There's this update program you can run on the phone. It will connect to orange via GRPS, tell you if theres any updates available for your region and let you download them. Thats why you can sometimes download other updates if you change your region setting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Oakley Posted December 4, 2002 Report Share Posted December 4, 2002 Well, I downloaded the Orange Media Player (384K) and installed it. It's a streaming media player built by Emblaze Media. The 'Help' -> 'About' screen touts the version as 0300,0012,0044,0031 I can't get it to open a local file... but it will allow you to open a RSTP file via a URL. For those whom aren't familiar with RSTP, it's a streaming media protocol. The most common implementation is Real's Realplayer. I don't know if this player will open Real's *.ram or other files...Emblaze's website (www.emblaze.com) describes a packaged streaming media platform based on MPEG4 open standards - but who knows? I'll play with it some more and let you know... Regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dan Posted December 4, 2002 Report Share Posted December 4, 2002 Do you have any example urls I could try to see how this works on my phone, is it worth having both Emblaze and WMP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest daveng Posted December 30, 2002 Report Share Posted December 30, 2002 If you connect to the Internet through the cradle (you should find how to to do this somewhere else in the forum), you can select "update" and do it trough the PC.

Guest DJHope Posted December 30, 2002 Report Share Posted December 30, 2002 erm. played with emblaze player, it opens mp4 files however ive no idea were to find/create/edit mp4 files and renaming standard divx files didnt do anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest icornish Posted December 30, 2002 Report Share Posted December 30, 2002 How come the Swiss get the updates available to them, but not the british ? Surely the British are the bigger potential market for such features. Any comment from Orange on this ? NOTE: I don't want to start the Swiss-British war, having a great many friends in Geneva (and having some memorable nights out there) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DJHope Posted December 30, 2002 Report Share Posted December 30, 2002 I dont know if its a good thing mate, their being used as testers, we wont have any problems when the update comes here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest budda Posted January 5, 2003 Report Share Posted January 5, 2003 And I thought the Orange customers in Britain were being treated as guinea pigs for testing... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Matt Whitfield Posted January 6, 2003 Report Share Posted January 6, 2003 More on the Orange Media Player MPEG4 support... If you go to the very bottom of this MMS How To page, and look at the “Video Messaging” with MPeg 4 section, you will see that T-Mobile in Germany enabled this support on their network, so I guess it makes sense that Switzerland got an MPEG4 enabled media player... For those of you who managed to download the player from Orange Update (I tried but the download doesn't seem to be available now) there is an MPEG4 video sample for you to try.
