hi just a quick question why wont you need the tcpmp shortcut it's the best full screen video player for the ms smartphones & maybe even pocket pc's and its free it also has a converter to convert various formats of av and it is also free, i have got to say if you ar'nt interested in watching films, music videos or tv series on your phone then fair enough but if you do you cant beat tcpmp .
i dont have any thing to do with tcpmp i know it must sound like i'm advertising them, it is just a realy good program.

Hey, doesnt wmp run full screen?? i will use my phone for media but tcmp is really no use in my eyes. WMP runs .mpg .wmv .mp3 .wma .avi .3gp and thts all i need! never found much use of .ogg and wmp looks less tacky than tcmp

Wmp isn't great, it runs .wmv .3gp and uncompressed .avi files but not much else.
It's fine for music, but I use TCPMP for movies. You can rip a dvd to your computer and then compress it into a small divx file for your phone. Then you can use the films, tv etc for when you are bored on the train, for example, and on the hi res c550 the films are suprisingly good quality.
Also TCPMP can play basically any file type you can think of - .mpg .ogm etc that WMP can't, which is extremely useful. It may not look as pleasant as WMP, but as sno said, it is sooo much better for videos.

O and also yeh it is a XP one. :-$

I was actually thinking about that for the past day, I realise that wmp is rubbish for movies but for music it has a familar layout for the pc as well as album art yay!. but come to think of it running a full screen movie on a qvga screen is amazing but really i wont see the tackyness at all durr silly me. So can i just download it and thats that or do i need surtain plugins if so direct me.

As for the links, are the follwing task manager, multimedia album and smart explorer part of the phone or do i need to downlaod them seperatly THANKSS. merry christmas

Task mgr, and album are part of the phone, and you can get smart explorer HERE. (That is essential too - much better than the in built file explorer - can encrypt, decrypt, zip, unzip send files via IR, BT etc and it's all free.

Happy crimbo to you too.

nailed the .exe problem, it turns out tht when active sync is running with the phone, opening the program on the pc will open it. YAY this mac theme is truly incredible. Last question, smart explorer isnt free help

I can not get this working for the life of me.

I have installed...
tcpmp
smart explorer
oreneta notepad
monitorplug.arm.cab (which tells the temp.... Pretty cool)
mac.zip (mac.hme)

All seem to work independently except mac.hme.
All of the apps are located on my phone (audiovox 5600), not on
a storage card. So I also installed mac.sno.xml. That did not work
so I renamed that file to mac.home.xml, which also did not work.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It may well be because you have an audiovox 5600. The skin is called Mac (c550) because currently it is only for c550s, sorry bout that.    :twisted:
Loving the xmas smilies!

Is there any thing else that I did not install? I have heard around these parts that there is an orange plugin that I need.

I am not sure but isn't the 5600 the same as the c550, Just re-branded?

[Jamma14]

Nope c550 has a different resolution to your phone (240x320) and has the orange plugin.
The 5600 is a rebranded c500 (176x220) without the orange plugin.

[yourmum666]

This is an utterly wicked homescreen. Thankyou!

[Alby]

Hiya,Luv the mac screen.

but can't get my tcpmp icon to work even though I've added the sno.xml to the storage\app.data\home folder

Any ideas
