Windows Media Player - Upgrades or other Players Available ?

Is there an upgrade to Windows Media Player (WMP) or another player available ? The in-built WMP seems very limited to the files it can play.

Thanks.

Tcpmp player plays nearly everything.

WMP just plain suck's. It is the biggest memory HOG. Go with Tcpmp.

Hi Guys,
I was wondering if any of you know whether realplayer is availeable for aximx50v? it supports nokia and palm os stuff but I can't seem to find it, where is it? yet I have read on other site postings of users installing it on win mobile 2003 devices. It would be pretty cool as there are tonnes of streaming stuff out there but most require realplayer,
Regards,
Dicey

Realplayer Mobile causes many problems though and has ads

Thanks for the link Doug
Linuxcrazyman...you say it causes problems, would that be axim locking up, not starting and potentially head wreacking? as I am aware of the probs some software can cause and lead to troublesome times with pda's. Would you guys approve of this software? I've had the x50v for 2 years and never upgraded any of the standard software except for runtime and .net patches so any suggestions are welcomed,
Thanks again guys for the headsup,
regards

Thanks.
If you are not adverse to parting with some greenbacks, PocketMusic maybe up your street.
Only limited by not trying
