I can't speak for the paid version of Kinoma, but the Youtube application video are higher quality than the free version of Kinoma.

Oh.. I have the opposite... I think the Kinoma Free has better video quality then the YouTube app... But that is my personal experience...

IMHO Kinoma's YT play is head & shoulders better than any other option.

confirmed video quality is lower... I have the paid version (free using the trial link). But I didn't get it for youtube.... audio is great you can listen to almost any local radio station thats broadcasted over the air. Kinoma Guide > Providers > Radio > TUNED.mobi

on a side note... it has the best video quality on the Palm OS

Two questions, do you have the youtube app set to high quality and are you watching a video that is actually in high quality?

I have watched the same video in both applications and the youtube app had a lot better quality. I can't use the youtube app right now since I exchanged my phone and I can update my profile because Sprint still says there internet is down.

The youtube app won't work over wifi for me.

I know, Kinoma is a good program, I have been listening to some of the music stations. It's nice to have youtube build in because a lot of mobile devices don't have the youtube app. I just need to figure out how to reassign pictures to open with HTC album instead of Kinoma.

I havent found an answer to this question:

My ringtones worked great under the My Documents/My Ringtones folder. All the mp3 files and WAV files worked great. When i installed Kinoma Freeplay, it somehow decided to be the app that opens the mp3 files, so those ringtones dont work or launch kinoma instead of just doing the normal ring.
The WAV files still work fine.

Any way to choose which files Kinoma Freeplay becomes the default player for?

co-sign on kinoma hi-jacking default player/viewer preferences... thats my only complaint with the app

If I read right, you'll have to use something like Resco Explorer to change the association that Kinoma hijacks.

It's mentioned here: http://forum.kinoma.com/showthread.php?p=7668

Dunno why they built that into the program when people hate it.

[jmorton10]

I absolutely HATE how Kinoma hijacks all the file associations. It would be different if it asked for permission first like most programs do, but it never gives you an option to say no to that.

I have been screaming about this from day one (I have the paid version) but they adamantly refuse to change this behavior.

I use Resco Explorer to change the associations back (I don't want/need KP opening every single time I click on a jpeg in the file explorer) In Resco, you can click open on a file & then get then "open with" dialog just like Windows XP etc in your computer. You then have the "always use this program to open this file type" checkbox you can check to solve the problem.

This works fine, but really shouldn't be necessary. Stealing file associations without asking is a cardinal sin in application programming..........
