Mobility Site - View Single Post - Unable to find a working media player for Hacked GPS

hey all, i'm new to this site, and to most pocket pc's and such. I just bought myself a Magellan Maestro 4250 GPS, and was reading up on what sort of things it was capable of doing. As a little background, it runs off of Windows CE 5.0, and so far i have loaded up File Manager on it, and thats about it. I was following these instructions on how to hack this thing: Step 1 back up all of the orignal files on the Magellan Note that in that walkthrough, he is using a 3100, but all the Maestro models use Windows CE 5.0, so it doesn't matter that mines a higher model.

Basically it gives you more POI's, better maps, the ability to switch between maps instantly (i believe), File manager, and it's supposed to be loaded with TCPMP 0.81RC1. I decided to skip out on all the maps and POI stuff, basically i just wanted the media player, and File Manager (plus a few games or something)

I have successfully completed the steps up to the TCPMP, but the link the guy gives for the TCPMP download (which is actually a thread somewhere on this site) requires some sort of special permissions to download, since it won't let me do it with my account.

I've looked everywhere for this program for the past 4 days, but was not able to find the specific one this guy used with his. If anyone knows where i can find a media player that will work on Windows CE 5.0 and doesn't require the user to be a rocket scientist, Please let me know.

Thanks in Advance.
