HTCAlbum. It's the program that's used when you view pictures / video from sms and in touch flo. It's found in the Windows directory on your device. You can use resco file explorer to set it as the default program for that file type.

I use the DivX mobile player as all my videos are encoded with DivX or Xvid. The quality is good, audio is good and playback is smooth. My only gripe is that the option buttons are so small... Other than that, I have tried using WMP and encoding my videos to .wmv but the DivX format keeps the file sizes smaller. A good example is National Lampoons Christmas Vacation encoded from a 700MB DVD rip was compressed to ~445MB DivX and .wmv was over 560MB.

Just my opinion, I like the DivX mobile player the best.

I've had a problem with the divx player making video/audio come out of sync. The same files play fine on my computer.

Weird, I've been using the DivX mobile player on a lot of my WinMo devices and it seems to work pretty well. I've never had audio/Video sync issues. What converter do you use? I use AVS Video Converter 6.5.

Guys I don't know if this is in one of the provided links but all you need is this. Takes the guess work out of everything. Use windows media player when playing movies though so you can pause it without having the annoying htc album menu bar pop up one hundred times, not to mention windows media player requires less resources than htc album and the video is rendered in the exact same way. If you would like to see a video of movies working on my device perfectly let me know.

PS installs on your pc NOT YOUR DEVICE.
