MP3 Player wanted !


Recommended Posts

How about a descent MP3 Player ?

The Windows Media Player is crap.

On my Ipaq I can fast forward and rewind tracks on Media Player.

Can this be done on the SPV ?

Can we have a pause function so I can go back to where I was on a track after I have made a phone call or done some work ?

Does this DIVX thing play MP3 ?

Looks as though it does play MP3 :)

Time to read old threads and find out how it works :oops:

I personnaly don't agree with people complaining about the mp3 player. I don't know if it's thanks to the headset or the soundchip but the soud quality is FABULOUS !

I've been listening to a lot of mp3 players and the sound quality of the SPV is by far the best.

So my advice is start a little enjoying what you got :)

Please tell me you're being sarcastic! Either that or you've been trying some crap mp3 players! :)

I heard an iPod last week and although I HATE it with a passion (form over function) the sound quality was (predicatably) a lot better than the SPV. No matter what the bitrate of the files you play on the SPV, my Discman p***es all over it in the sound quality stakes!

It's a free library that compiles at least for smartphone that will decode mp3/ogg vorbis/mod files... pretty much any sound file. It's aim is to be a library that you can use in any games or apps on any platform to provide playback. They have a demo frontend but not one that works on smartphone.

Someone could probably knock together a player type frontend for this to provide a good media player for SPV. Being able to use ogg etc would be very cool.

Sounds good spacemonkey - like you say, now we just need a frontend for it. I would have a go but I've only just started grappling with Smartphone programming in C and i'm having problems even writing a string to the screen without errors, so I might be a while! :)

Media player works OK for audio apart from a lack of FF/REW; the problem is that the sound chip in the SPV isn't the best so it's never going to be a match for a dedicated player, but we can come close!

I agree, the built in media player is useless :/

good points:

-good sound quality

bad points:

-no pause button (what were they thinking?)

-no fast forward/rewind (the SPV has loads of buttons, i'm sure they could have fitted this in!)

-no playlist editor (yes, you can make .asx playlists, but it's not really possible without a PC)

-doesn't even play files in alphabetical order! (putting numbers in front of each filename has no effect. could function as a low-tech playlist replacement if it ordered the files properly)

the media player seems like an un-finished bit of software to me :S

its funny you should mention mod files. i got a demo of a game called boxy pocket for spv. dont know if anyone else got it cause i cant find the the site. but it plays mods straight from the spv. id love to have a mod programe to make my own track whilst away from my computer.
