Since HTC’s TouchFLO 3D interface found on the Touch Diamond, Touch Pro, and Touch HD uses HTC’s own audio manager software to manage and play music libraries, they’ve left the default Windows Media Player alone in terms of skin customizations.

The problem with that is HTC’s audio player is not a very good replacement for Windows Media Player. It doesn’t have library search capabilities, it doesn’t play videos and recorded TV shows synced over from the desktop, and most importantly, it can’t be controlled using Microsoft Voice Command or Cyberon Voice Commander. So should you want to use any of those features, you would be stuck with the default Windows Media Player skin, which totally doesn’t match the TouchFLO 3D Manilla interface at all.

Luckily, Poorlyduck of XDA-Developers, has designed a Manilla style skin for Windows Media Player. His original version is for QVGA devices only however. An altered VGA compatible version has surfaced in a few custom ROM’s, and the credits are listed as coming from a PDAVIET user named Tmap. The VGA version is available here and QVGA is here.
