Hello just wanted to know if anyone knew of a good m4v converter or a m4v player for PPC WM6
Thanx in advance
Total Video Converter. google it or warez it.
Works good. simpsons/family guys down to 12MB .3gp files
Can also take those tricky vob files and get those encoded to mp4

Ive tried encoding a few movie clips to watch on my Hermes I've tried mp4 and avi but just get an error message, file type not supported.
Whats the correct file type? cam records in mp4 and plays back, why not my conversions?
Thanks, Chris

can i not just convert a video file to mp4 or the correct file type and play it through windows media that cam on the device?
Depends on what you are using to encode the video. The WMP may not have the decoder. Although, AVI movies all have the same *.avi, all AVI movies can be different, depending on what encoder you used to encode the video and the audio. Hence, not all player is able to play all AVI movies. I think it goes relatively the same to MP4 also.
Anyway, what format are you trying to convert. You can go Microsoft homepage and download their Windows Media encoder to encode your stuff into WMV format which should play nicely on your phone.
I have been using Xilisoft MP4 convertor, converting from .avi to .mp4
I will try out the Windows Media encoder and encode into WMV format.
Thanks for the info
converted ok but its not full screen when selected..! any ideas?
its ok sorted it out...!!!!!!!!!
what programs are recommended for ripping DVDs into 640x480 to view on ameo?
any recomendations for conversion of existing AVIs ?
PocketDivXEncoder is free and excellent:
http://www.pocketdivxencoder.net/
cheers for that.
ive converted an existing AVI file i had, can view converted file on PC nicely but windows media player on Ameo says it cannot play file. Do i need a seperate divx player or codecs installed on the Ameo?
Also, the pocketdivxextractor doesnt seem to like the VOB files on a DVD to read. i dont see a preview, and when i tried extracting one..it came out jarbled and lasted only 5secs or so. Is there a trick i am missing? Tried a couple of my DVDs, in various drives
You need a divx player for PPC, WMP wont do them. Or mpg, its kinda sucky that way.
Also, pocketdivxencoder crashes lots under vista

you need "tcmp" or "coreplayer"
greetings,
Wout
Agreed, TCPMP or Coreplayer are your best media players for pocket pc and are capable of playing Divx, MP4, Xvid, OGG files and mpeg 1 files amongst others. WMP10 only supports WMV, MP4 and MPEG 1.
TCPMP is freeware and various codec plug ins are available for it, such as AVC, AC3, FFMEG etc.
Coreplayer is not free but is made by the same people and is a much nicer application aesthetically.
Conversion is achieved by many different methods. Pocketdivxencoder is a simple one to use, but is lacking in DVD to PPC capabilities. It is better used for quick re-encoding of existing AVI files etc.
For DVD Ripping get the following freeware software:
DVD Decryptor (to remove encryption from DVD and to rip it to hard drive)
Get and use DVDx 2.5 to encode the DVD to Divx based AVI file or Xvid (free codec)...though I prefer the results of using the latest Divx codec (but it's not free, you do get a long trial period though to see if it meets your demands).
So basically DVDx encodes your VOBs to one AVI file or other format and takes a bit longer than Pocketdivxencoder, but you get more options in encoding and much better results in my opinion.
Alternatively download a copy of ImToo 3GP Converter which can rip a DVD direct to any other format (most poular formats - providing it is not encrypted, in which case use DVD Decrypter or DVD Fab Decrypter Freeware and superb application).
Once you get the hang of these apps you should not need any others, but if you really get into all of this encoding lark, try Virtual Dub or such like programs which give you virtually full control over all aspects of video conversions.
Good luck.
Hi i have a question. Is there a player or codec that makes the prophet to play divx movies avi files? I have downloaded an encoder that encodes an avi file that plays on pc to an avi file 320x240 that plays on a ppc. I tranfered the file to the prophet but the media player says that can't open file. Now what can i do?

Glad it works for you! For most movie files, TCPMP is great, and then there is CorePlayer (the comercial version of TCPMP).
hey people,
just a quick question, what the deal with Divx player and avi files.
after a minute or so it starts to stutter (video and sound)
what you think stepping over on mp4 would be beter?
greetz gunz
oke figured it out my self.
changing to mp4 solved the stuttering
I have the same problem. Did you convert your .avi to .mp4, or just got new files already in .mp4? If you converted, mind telling how?
Did you use the AVS Converter? I just saw an add for that.
Use "mp4forhd" to convert
And than htc player to play
Whats is the best video format for HTC Touch2?
mp4 / mpeg4 / avi
it's not the format ... it's the quality which is important ... !
yay, but sometime mp4 format quality not so good.. i am findin the best quality video format.. xD
if the video passed through many programs , even in the best suitable format , it would have loss of quality ! dont measure the format , measure the quality ! i've seen many films in mp4 which are better thant .avi or mpeg
Suggest some converter?
Total video converter is the best.
thx, i gonna try it out now!
but i want a free software.

To play avi files you need core player... or you can also use Divx player (freeware).
Hi All,
I dont know whether this helps or not, but this is what i do to view movies on my Touch2,
I have downloaded DivX Encoder (google it) its free.
I encode all my movies using this encoder & then use TCPMP player to play them on my device.
Works like charm..
