Hello, have an Axim X50, I can browse the net using WIFI and see a folder on my PC containing MP3s.... but media player wont play them... is this possible, or do I HAVE to copy the file to the PDA before it will play ?
Have you tried to go to Shoutcast.com, save a playlist (.pls) of your choice to your Axim; turn on WiFi, use TCPMP; PocketMusic; GSPlayer or Pocket Player and open that playlist. You will get streaming fron the Intenet to your Axim....

i think he means from PC to PPC, if that, and you use iTunes, use a program called WifiTunes, it streams from the iTunes library to Axim. You must have sharing enabled in iTunes.
you can use GSPlayer to play mp3s DIRECTLY from server
you also can use shoutcast and icecast to stream mp3/ogg, and use GSPlayer or mortplayer to play

TCPMP will play mp3s DIRECTLY from the server they're on as well.
I've had this problem as well - but it's with the streaming media services by Microsoft... MMS://
Anyway that TCMP or another alternative will play those streams as well? Also how do you change file association in Mobile Edition - ie what program will automatically open an .mp3?

It can play streaming, but it's not very good. It'll skip and refuse to play many files. I use Imusic and can play files over the wifi without problem or skipping. You might need to set a bit of buffer on the player to use if others are accessing at the same time.
Hi, mine's a 50v and I'm pretty new at using it. I'm able to see all of my mp3s on my home network from my PPC using explorer, but when I go to gsplayer and try to navigate to the network folder I do not see any files.
In explorer I have to enter in the path to my network, so I'm thinking I might have to do something similar in GSplayer.
Install Resco Explorer (there should be a trial copy on the CD that came with your Axim) as it allows you to map network shares on to the PDA's filesystem. Your shared folders will now appear in a folder called Network that is accesible by any PDA application without needing to enter anything manually. This is actually a feature of the OS and will continue to work even after you remove Resco Explorer.
