I cant get it to work. i try to stream live tv using opera mobile 9.5, and it requests me to save, or open a stream.asx I chose to open it and it freezes up my phone.

EDIT - it has to do with coreplayer

works with media player, but no video, just audio right now...hmmm

EDIT#2 - http://www.sprintusers.com/forum/sho...d.php?t=195325

got it working. still choppy(i'm looking for a fix) but works good. need to change the orientation in the TCPMP to lefthanded.

Gave up on orb, use mytinytv.com if you just want to stream live TV. I if you have a router you might have to fwd some ports but its works perfect

Try Kinoma FreePlay for (IMHO) the best Orb experience on mobile. It's free.

Recorded TV yes, live TV no.

Woah! I cant believe I have never used Kinoma before. AWESOME. I have to totally re-evaluate how I use Orb and store music and media. I hated using PIE and WMP...garbage.

Not sure why people are having an issue with streaming live TV quality, but I read in another forum to make the default stream in 3gp format so it streams the HTC streaming media app.

This usually has some error or times out the initial time when the HTC app loads up the stream, but then I hit "play" again and it streams in full screen perfectly fine with good quality.

Orb works perfectly with my TP2 using TCPMP and the Winamp stream option in Orb. Audio, Video, and TV works well. Here is the steps I used to get it working:

1. Use the "recomp-03" TCPMP here (or just google TCPMP-0.72RC1-ARM-PPC-recomp-03).

2. Download "WM5 WMV9 Codecs.zip" here and put the two .dll files into the Windows directory on your TP2.

(maybe soft reset at this point? i can't remember)

3. In TCPMP, under the DirectDraw settings make sure "Use blitting instead of overlay" is checked. Under file association settings make sure PLS is checked.

4. In Orb, go into settings and change stream to use Winamp (.pls).

You may need to tweak the manual A/V offset under advanced settings in TCPMP if it is out of sync.
