Get CineXPlayer on your iPhone and iPod touch

CineXPlayer is an iPad app which allows you to load Xvid AVI files via iTunes. But the developer hasn’t come up with an iPhone version of the CineXPlayer app. But now don’t worry, if you don’t wait for the official version of CineXPlayer for your iPhone and iPod touch then, here is the step by step procedure to get CineXPlayer app on iPhone or ipod touch.

1. Download the application
2. Find the *.ipa file

OSX:
“/users/username/Music/iTunes/Itunes Media”

Win XP:
“C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Mobile Applications”

or

“C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\Mobile Applications

Vista/7:
“C:\Users\[user name]\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Mobile Applications”

Or
“C:\Users\[user name]\Music\iTunes\Mobile Applications”

3. open the ipa file in winrar (or similar program), but don’t unzip it.

4. In winrar open (double click) the folder named ‘Payload’, then ‘CineXplayer.app’

5. Then extract the info.plist to your desktop and open it in a plist editor ( I used plist editor for windows)

6. Change:

<key>UIDeviceFamily</key>
<array>
<integer>2</integer>
</array>

To:

<key>UIDeviceFamily</key>
<array>
<integer>1</integer>
</array>

7. Save you modified info.plist file

8. Drag your newly edited info.plist file back over to the winrar window to overwrite the old info.plist file (if it promps you, click yes)

 

9. Exit winrar and copy the cineXplayer.ipa file to your device (via ssh or ftp or whatever) to ‘/var/mobile/Documents/Installous/Downloads/’

10. on your device install the ipa via installous

If you don’t know what im talking about then:
- Open installous (if you don’t have installous, install it via cydia)
- Tap on ‘Downloads’, ‘cinexplayer.ipa’, then ‘install’
- Wait for installous to tell you it has finsihed installing

11. That’s all ! you have now an ipad app running on your ipod touch or iphone
