Guest xavierjohn22 Posted May 7, 2004 Report Share Posted May 7, 2004 This is a little off topic but maybe nöt. Nodaemön möde allöws yöu tö launch xbar withöut remaining in memöry. Yöu knöw för xbar 2, it remains in mem. yöu can see it in the icönbar always. Same för xbar 1. You just have tö cönfigure söme strings in the registry. Nöw förgive mé för i'll usé my xbar and copy pasté my xbar.txt in SD. I think this is a little löng, hé hé. Xbar 1.0 (24/08/2003) ===================== by Xetra www.xetranet.com/spv Description: ----------- Xbar is a simple free TaskSwitcher for SmartPhone (Tested on SPVxxx/Smartphone 2002). Installation: ------------ Xbar is unsigned, you must unlock your smartphone before you can run it. Unzip xbar.exe and use ActiveSync to copy it on to your smartphone. DAEMON mode (Xbar will remain in memory and start quickly) Launches xbar.exe, and xbar is ready to be open via the voice record button. You can add a shortcut to "IPSMWindowsstartup" so that it opens when your phone boots. NODAEMON mode (For experts: Xbar does not stay in memory and opens slightly slower) Launches Xbar, then close when finished. You can add a entry in the base of register for launch xbar via the key recording: You will have to edit a registry setting to use the voice record key to open xbar. Replace value 1: HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftShellRai:MSTNOTES with (include the quote marks) "IPSMProgram FilesXbarXbar.exe"/NODAEMON Configuring Thermometer (Compatible with Thermo): ------------------------------------------------ HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareXetranetThermo DWORD REG_DW [ Calib=100 ] To adjust temp by -3 = > 100-3 = 97 To adjust temp by +3 = > 100+3 = 103 Usage: ----- Voice Record button (on the side) = Open/Close Return button = Quit selected application Select button (middle of the thumb stick) = Bring selected application to focus 1 = Quit all applications except the one selected 2 = Quit all applications 3 = System info Left menu button = Voice Notes Right menu button = Calculator 4 = Open 4.lnk (must be in the same directory as Xbar) 5 = Open 5.lnk (must be in the same directory as Xbar) 6 = Open 6.lnk (must be in the same directory as Xbar) 7 = Open 7.lnk (must be in the same directory as Xbar) 8 = Open 8.lnk (must be in the same directory as Xbar) 9 = Open 9.lnk (must be in the same directory as Xbar) 0 = Open 0.lnk (must be in the same directory as Xbar) * = Quit Xbar (in DAEMON mode) # = Help You can even open Xbar when the keyboard is locked (to see the temperature for example). If AUTOHIDE has been set in the ini file, Xbar will close itself after the specified time. Skin: ---- xbar.bmp (Width<176 Height<220) xbar.ini (see comments in file) These files must be in the same directory as xbar.exe You can reload the skin without having to start Xbar (just close it and open it again) Bug(s): ------ ??? Author: ------ Xetra [ [email protected] ] © Xetranet 2003 www.xetranet.com/spv Thanks: ------ Philippe Mr. and Alain L Andy M. for Doc translation. Histoy: ------ Xbar 1.0 (24/08/2003) Added configuration of the thermometer and made it compatible with Thermo Fixed Autohide Added 2 new options (focus) (see xbar.ini) Reduced internal skin by 3Kb Fixed keypad bug Various improvments Xbar Beta 4 (07/08/2003 22h20) Improved display (fixed bug) Added NODAEMON mode (for the expert...)

Guest AvWijk Posted May 7, 2004 Report Share Posted May 7, 2004 Great player, it plays my own encoded 192kb/s @ 24fps DivX's smoothly!! Very annoying that is don't play fullscreen when I hit Play :) also missing an backlight option it is VERY irritating it goes off everytime, even if I turn on the option 'never turn backlight off' in the settings menu.

Guest phonesmarts Posted May 8, 2004 Report Share Posted May 8, 2004 as much as i like this player (which is quite a lot), i think it should be a multimedia player. it could play mp3s, but i could see no description, title, like pMVP. once the feature is added (to round off the player) i still will keep pMVP. but keep up the good work! :) I love watching encoded AVIs on this thing. makes every1 around me jealous :twisted: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest phonesmarts Posted May 9, 2004 Report Share Posted May 9, 2004 is there anyway to rid of the drop frames (i.e. make the vid non-choppy)? (the vid doesnt run too smooth, but it still is quite watchable!) i use PocketDivxEncoder to encode my divx vids to save space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest yarod_g14 Posted May 11, 2004 Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 Hello all, I appear to be getting a strange problem with this program and I wonder if anyone else has experienced it. I was watching a movie got a call and I quit the app when I went back in I had to reselect the film, I opened the inbuilt file explorer and the whole page was and still is blank! I am able to use the soft keys to bring up the menu at the bottom but I cant see anything!! I have reinstalled the app a few times and its still blank. !! Tragedy!! No more movies on train!!

Guest The PocketTV Team Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 yes. i'am planing to add mpeg1 and mjpeg video codecs (hopefully in the near future) Also, you can use PocketTV Classic, which plays MPEG-1 pretty well on Smarphones and is also free. I've not tried Beta on Smartphone yet, but I'm sure it's as good as on the Pocket PC. Good work! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hardcore Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 Great player! Its so much faster than PocketMPV. Amazing stuff... How about next, make a video recording tool for MS Smartphone that can record in 3GP? There aren't any now while there are a few for Symbian OS.

Guest yarod_g14 Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 Hi guys, Thnks for feedback. I should have mentioned I am able to open Files through file explorer as I have set the file extensions and also that I am using an E200. The in built explorer will not work for me and it did before so I must have changed something. I can use all other features but when openening the explorer all I have is a blank page, will not display anything no folders, no lines and no text, nothing, nada, niente it is a plain white background!! I have uninstalled and removed manually and reinstalled countless times but no explorer. Not really a problem but I would like to know what it was I did. I recently installed OSX Darxins Mac OS skin (why did I want my windows to look like Mac? Am I mad why would I want Mac maybe Mac made to look like windows>? Surely I would have bought a Pod if I was that stupid!) Anyway I also installed RJ plugin and my phone has been more than a bit unreliable since I put on the 2 (osx + RJ). I have been unable to remove the extra skinned screens etc. (I did see post on how to remove but havn't followed up) Maybe Beta explorer is trying to open overwritten skin or something?

Guest picard_beta Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 maybe you should delete the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREBetaPlayerOPEN registry tree (or the full BetaPlayer tree) this is because uninstall doesn't delete BetaPlayer's registry entries. this will be fixed later, so uninstall/install can make a clear state.

Guest Taoski Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 I just used the Matrix trailer as a test from the makers website. http://beta.topcat.hu/samples/RL_LQB_320x1...x176_256_64.avi I was wondering what peoples benchmark was like? (file > benchmark). I got the following on me good old trusty SPV. Average Speed: 64.83% Video Frames: 3635 Audio Samples: 3335616 Bench Time: 03:53:618 Bench Frame Rate: 15.56 Bench Sample Rate: 14278 Original Time: 02:31:448 Original Frame Rate: 24.00 Original Sample Rate: 22050 Has anyone tweaked the buffersize to get any better readings yet? Update. Just removed my homescreen which was using the Analog Clock plugin and i have managed to squeeze it up to 69.27% average speed and a Bench framerate of 16.63 oh... and PS - my backlight stays on all the time! Wahoo! I am off to re-encode those Simpsons episodes i have'nt watched yet. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Steen på stoffer Posted May 14, 2004 Report Share Posted May 14, 2004 I've got problems getting beta player to work; whenever I try open a movie or mp3-file, I get a message like this: There is not enough buffers, try increasing them?! How do I increase them?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Steen på stoffer Posted May 14, 2004 Report Share Posted May 14, 2004 Hmmm just got another question... Could anyone tell how to get past the backlight issue; where is this beta2.zip to be found? Do you just replace the files in beta player on the phone, with the ones found in beta2.zip?

Guest gpcarreon (MVP) Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 Check your free physical memory level. Could be due to too many app running in the background. Kill non-system appz via Task Manager. Posted from my SmartPhone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Steen på stoffer Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 Hmmm still can't find the beta2.zip file, you're reffering to... I've been on the betaplayer home page, but all I can find is the betaplayer_setup_smartphone_0.02.exe. Is this the one, or what? The backlight is still turning off after some time...
