Orb and Core Player vs Win Media

I have Orb running at home and have used it with TCPMP in my Mogul for two years with no problems. TCPMP does not work on the TP2, so I upgraded to Core Player, but the Core player (which works fine for video files on the device) plays audio files that I orb, but crashes everytime I try to stream the TV feed.

Windows media player will play the TV feed, but the playback is so choppy as to be worthless. Even Sprint TV plays better than Orb on Windows Media.

Has anyone had a problem with Core 1.3.6 build 7427 and Orb?

I have not played with Orb on the TP2 yet, but I used it thru TCPMP like you in the past. I will say that I have read an article about an xda cab that puts and Orb tab into touchflo. It is pretty manual (far from a cab install), but once done the video I have seen of it is pretty cool. The only caveat is you have ot be running orb 1.0 - as orb started asking us all to move to 2.0 over a year ago this may be bard to come by on your PC end.

The thing is that they are just using it as a front end and the streaming seems to still be running in windows media. I would consider going into orb and making sure that the default stream is in windows media format. Then I would dial the quality down some (this is just a 3.6 screen) and see what you get. It is very possible that you have done these things already, but I thought I would just give it a mention.

I was able to install TCMP to main memory and have it work with several codecs, but curiously not video made on the i760.

Here is the link for download and info. You must join to get the files.

Huh, installed coreplayer. Navigated to orb using PIE. Open in Core like a dream, no chops on 4 bar 3g service.

What are the settings you are using? What version of core player?
