“An excellent MPEG player to watch movies on the go”

by James Thornton about PocketTV Classic

These days you don't need to be chained to the sofa if you want to enjoy the latest movies or TV shows. No Siree, the digital video revolution means that you can now check out the latest episode of 24 on your mobile phone, or watch your favourite films on your Pocket PC.

If you need to view movies in MPEG format then you can't afford to ignore PocketTV. The program is one of the most popular portable media players around, and performs very well to boot. Besides the usual things like loading movies, playback controlling, volume tweaking and full-screen mode, PocketTV can play streaming videos through the HTTP or FTP protocols.

There's an abundance of options to play around with, including the ability to set the size of the window, adjust colours, change brightness/contrast, tweak audio quality and a lot more besides.

If you're still in search of the perfect media player for your Windows Mobile device, you've probably just found it.

Pros
  • Crisp playback quality
  • Handles streaming video
  • Lots of viewing options
  • Resizable 'player window
Cons
  • Doesn't support all media formats
