I'm actually using WinDVD Copy 4 which will do both DVDs or files to WMV. There are only 3 profiles and the medium profile is possibly a little too high spec for the C550 (25fps) but it actually handles it pretty well. It is easy to then use Win Media encoder if you want to convert down to the pocket PC widescreen profile (and quick). I've tried all the other methods (Divx etc) but for some reason none particularly like my Digital TV (UK Freeview) recordings and bomb out, even though I have them in DVD compatible format. WinDVD Creator and WinDVD copy are rock solid with them however and nice to be able to pass on to other Pocket PC users who may only have Windows Media installed. |

QUOTE(adamkandel @ Jul 17 2005, 20:32) Ok people fasten your seatbelts because this is going to be heartbreaking. The C550 with Windows Media Player 10 will not sync constantly/correctly with 90%* of Microsoft XP operating systems. Do NOT format your phone, remove activesync/media player etc... because there is no way around it at the moment. The fault i suspect is not with any of the above but it is with the C550 handset itself. Adam's Analysis: After deleting programs trying out every method mentioned and everything i could think of i finally realised at 4am this morning that the cock-up was made on microsoft's behalf. Now here is where i think the error lies... I believe that windows media player 10 (PC) is recognising your c550 however not as the c550 but rather as the c500. I don't think that the pc software/drivers is quite up to date, in other words therefore causing the conflict. Now i don't think we'll get a patch/driver or whatever it may be for at least another few weeks... so well have to hold tight until then. However for all of you c500 (with wmp10) users windows media player 10 works fine with syncing your tunes  At the moment my brother has got a c500 so im just putting my sd card in his phone and putting it back into my c550 when syncronisation is complete. * = Research conducted by asking 10 c550 users about their wmp10 syncronisation. ### PLEASE NOTE THAT THE ABOVE INFORMATION HAS BEEN PRODUCED BY MY OWN RESEARCH AND HAS BEEN IN NO WAY CONFIRMED ON BEHALF OF MICROSOFT OR ORANGE. ### Just tried my laptop, got about 3 tracks done before it bombed out so back to using my MiniSD card in my SD reader. Tried on an Athlon64, Opteron and Pentium M machine now so a fair mix of hardware. Looks like the theory above is correct. Pretty funny considering the C550 is aimed at music fans ;-). Still, one should always expect these things as early adopters. I'm still very pleased with mine (though unlike some I don't yet have an investment in SmartPhone software seeing as I've only been an iPAQ user). I've still got about 800MB of tracks on my MiniSD and the sound is pretty good I'd say. |

QUOTE(paul1664 @ Jul 17 2005, 11:12) For the record I have tried upgrading to ActiveSync 4.0 but still no luck. Anyone? No luck on my side either. Gets to about 2% then hangs. WMP then says it still can't see the device, even though I'm still sync'd and can still explore it. The PC I've tried is very clean but I am connecting as a guest. Not sure if that makes a difference but won't get chance to test on my laptop till tomorrow. |

QUOTE(Zone-MR @ Jul 14 2005, 11:51) Heya... I'd just like to confirm that our free C500 SIM unlock tool works perfectly on the C550 (thanks nedge2k for the testing) To decert (application unlock) the C550, simply change these keys using the attached registry editor (it's the freeware PHM editor signed by HTC): HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies\00001001 = 1 (RAPI) HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies\00001005 = 40 (Cert) Just want to confirm it worked a treat on my new C550 too. I read this thread and took the plunge. The only thing I did differently is that I unlocked the application lock via the orange uk developers site. (I'd already done this before finding this thread). Only needed to copy and run the cab and then the unlock tool. |
