This is a set of updates for Windows Embedded CE 6.0 released during the period of Jan 1 - Mar 31, 2017. These updates are fixes for Windows Embedded CE 6.0 operating system problems you run into during the development and maintenance of your custom platform. You have a Windows Embedded CE 6.0-based image that supports DirectDraw and Windows Media Player. You define a custom four character code (FourCC) code format in DirectDraw. You try to play a file that is encoded by the custom format. In this scenario, the video render filter cannot use the color format to render video frames.

• An archive of the CodePlex open source hosting site. A Direct-Draw-based Media Player control for Windows CE / Windows Embedded Compact devices.
• Several players for Windows (Embedded) CE available, ex. TCPMP (both freeware and payware version) Fortuna (a rewrite of TCPMP) Shinco (a rewrite of TCPMP).

GOM Media Player Editor's Review

GOM Player is a clean looking but powerful video player that I'm using and recommend to everyone. It's lightweight and includes many features, a lot of playback controls and tweaks, skins and much more. The interface is very simple, intuitive and good-looking and the buttons and menus are well placed.
What I like very much about this player is the fact that it has embedded codec system so you won't have to search for codecs every time you cannot play a video format. However, if it happens that you need an extra codec to play a multimedia file that the player didn't come with, the software will automatically identify what you need and it will lead you to the download page.
To see all the options and features of the software, right click on the player. You'll see a menu with a lot of controls and settings for: playback, subtitles, video, audio, filters and much more.
In the Subtitles Preference Menu you can adjust the subtitles options as you like. You can change the font, size, position, character spacing, color and more.
In case you're not happy with the default skin, you can change it by going into the Skin Menu and selecting one of the other two player skins. You can also download other skins from the official player website by clicking on the 'Get More Skins...'.
Pluses: Customizable; low CPU utilization; ability to play some broken media files; high video quality;
Drawbacks / flaws:-
In conclusion: If you watch video or listen to audio, this freeware player is a must-have application.

CE 6.0 features a kernel that supports 32,768 processes, up from the 32-process limit of prior versions. Each process receives 2 GB of virtual address space, up from 32 MB.

Windows Embedded CE 6.0 was released on November 1, 2006 and includes partial source code.^[4] The OS currently serves as the basis for the Zune HDportable media player.

• New device driver model that supports both user mode and kernel mode drivers.
• The 32 process limit has been raised to 32,768 processes.
• The 32 megabyte virtual memory limit has been raised to the total virtual memory; up to 2 GB of private VM is available per process.
