Please help (about steaming)

Is there any steaming media player can support 320x240 h.264 format?
Can anyone share the cab installed file of steaming media player?
Thank you very much!

Have you tried CorePlayer? Personally not tested it's streaming features but by far, the best media player out there..

I've tried coreplayer V1.25, but my mobile phone hanged....

diamond? works on mine perfectly with h264 streamsfrom the web. just lags a little and the resolution is different tho.

I'm sorry, but I couldn't help myself. The term you are referring to is called 'stReaming', and not 'steaming', which brings a whole new meaning to the phrase...

lol no wonder it looked awkward, reminds me of the iSteamy app on jailbreak iPhones!

Hi, I am using diamond too, you're using coreplayer to play h.264 streaming video? I used coreplayer to play that, but after I pressed the "play", the mobile will freeze on the screen.

Best video converter, size and format for HD?

Can anyone help?
I need best video converter with subtitles included for divx-xvid movies. Also, what is the best resolution for HD? 800x400? So croping files must be suported to.
Thanks anyway!

This is great and has a custom profile setting for the HD.

Totally worth the $19.99 USD. I found using Windows Media Player to work perfectly with the file that DVDCatalyst generates with great sound and smooth playback. Subtitles can be selected and it has auto cropping. A++ in my opinion.

Thanks a lot! Ill try this and post my opinion!

Free and works for me!

The best is imho Total Video Converter 3,14 . It can do everything. And the best settings are 1000bitrate 128 audio bitrate , mp4 and hv264 and 800x480 resolution. Play it in Album.
djschumi ocketdivx encoder is pretty bad... it cant convert into mp4, so you must play it in coreplayer => no chance for WVGA resolution.
jetjockgordo: I will try that maybe. But the only thing my total video covnerter is missing is 2pass option.

I tried DVD Catalist - excelent converter with only one missing. Subtitles are supported only for DVD, not for DiVX/XViD (.sub .srt etc).
Thanks anyway!

I would suggest contacting their tech support. Mitch responds in a few hours and he might have a work around or another suggestion to get it to do what you want.

As you experienced with Total VC, other converters are hit-and-miss when it comes to usability/stability that is why I like DVDCatalyst, it has never crashed and works perfectly on my Vista 64 system.
Good luck!

I have the m900 and am trying to adjust the output dimensions in pocketDivXencoding. When I click resize it gives to windows with what I guess are aspect ratios. Bit its strange that there are 2 windows. I have tried to adjust 1 of them to 800X480 and I can get close but when I click apply it goes back to the previous screen stating the output will be something like 468X472.
Anyone have experience with PocketDivXEncoder

Have you seen [APP][REF]Video encoding GUI?

Hey,
HD Video converter is one of the best video converters that can very easily convert the video files into some of the most popular video formats. This is one of the best converters that can perform multiple works at one time. This converter can perform:
Part 1: Edit and Rip DVD Movies to popular video formats.
Part 2: Convert HD TS, MTS, M2TS, MKV, MPEG, MPG, H.264 video
Part 3: Convert Video with DRM Protection.
Thank You.

For me the best video converter there is Flash to Video PRO.

recommend you a hd video converter,leawo
and I usually to convert video to 1280x720, and choose mkv format.

Thanks i m also searching for this.

its more up to the device framework whether to output the overleys (Subtitles) or not, when using HW accel'...
I wonder if anyone has the knowledge to bypass this

Touch HD Movie Player - Best?

Hi All,
I have tried searching for MP4 and AVI in the forums, but search results came up with nada.
Can someone please assist me with the BEST movie player for the Touch HD and how to encode the files?
I am currently using Slysoft CloneDVD Mobile. I selected Windows Smartphone as my encoding template, loaded the DVD, and built the AVI file. All went good.
I then copied it across to my Touch HD and tried to play it in WMP but get an error "Cannot play file" without any further details.
Any ideas people?
TIA

Sounds like a missing codec problem to me. i had the same with playing xvid movies. i use tcpmp player now instead of wmp, but am looking for a nicer prog.

I find Coreplayer to be the best using the DivX converter set to Mobile for compressing. It will compress most files and even convert AC3 files for use.
The playback is smooth whereas the actual DivX mobile and old TCPMP players seem to have a 1 second slight glich in playback (shown when a video is panning across a scene).
I have also found that if you use a File Explorer with Network access such as Resco Explorer, you can set the default player to be Coreplayer and play these files from any Network drive. I use an ASUS WLHDD2.5 small wireless hard drive with 100Gb capacity and can store loads of Music, movies and photos on it.
Ensure that Coreplayer can actually play the file type first or an error will occur.
Map your Network drive in Resco Explorer (follow the distructions..)
Select and hold the file to play in Resco, select open, Open with and then select Coreplayer.
Viola.

you might want to try the blackstone video encoding gui (search on this forum) to convert movies to mp4 and then play them via windows media player or tf3d video player. To date, those two players are the only ones capable of playing video using hardware acceleration

I use MP4forHD encoder software. Very good and clip quality very good. Playback using default Album player that comes with THD.

No acceleration though, so you have to encode to much lower quality.

Sorry, but main problem is that CorePlayer will not play movies with AC3 sound (5.1). A lot of new movies have 5.1 sound.

blabla
i love and hate AC3 at the same time

hi, have you seen this

its a handy little prog that makes very good conversion and plays exellently in the htc player.

yes yes

And do you have 5 ears with 5 headphones?
What is the point for having 5.1 on a mobile device, it's not like you can output to TV anyways.

The point is to watch existing movies with AC3 soundtracks without spending hours to reconvert them first.

Rhodium Video very very poor

I am trying to play downloaded DVD movies on my Rhodium and i presume its using Windows Media, the playback is sluggish and the sound is not in sync with the playback, is this the best i can expect after spending £500 or is it just that i need another media player? Shooting video and playing back seems fine the problem is when i convert a DVD the playback is pretty appalling, ANY HELP FROM ANYONE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

What format are the movies you're downloading? What are you using to convert them? Are the downloaded movies in sync? How about the converted ones? If you play them on your PC, are they synced up?

Check the resolution of the movie. Make sure it is 640x480. You don;t want to have the CPU doing all the resizing as the movie is being played. Some format may be better than the others too. And try with WMP. I believe it has hardware acceleration built-in.
Still I would love the phone be able to play HD 720p videos natively. Maybe one day.

amen! lol anyways ya you just arent formating the dvd'rips very well then cause i have a few full dvd's playing in perfect quality and timing on WMP and that's not even the best player to use

Use core player, it works fine with most videos (far better than the standard app)

Vio
try VIO Video Converter for your DVD conversions and select full quality. The file sizes are large but the quality and audio/video sync is superb.

Core Player is great and I consider 640x384 to be the optimal resolution for playback. Get a good video encoder and experiment for yourself though.

Use Super C to resize the video and then coreplayer to play it, no problems at all!

I can play 800x480 AVC @1.2Mbit/s through HTC Media Player smoothly. In Coreplayer I can't even get 1 FPS out of that file. I use MEGUI with the Zune settings to convert the video from a Bluray format.

As far as I can see, there isn't a good option right now, unless someone can say/prove otherwise.
For example: I have an AVI encoded with Divx 5 636*346, avg bitrtate 900, mp3 stereo. I can get this to play smoothly on much older hardware (a Palm TX), without conversion, via TCMPC.
So, WHY can't I find a player that works smoothly on the TP2?
I've read that the TP2 can handle avg bitrates up to 1,400 kbps; and it doesn't make sense to re-encode at a screen res lower than the bloody device.
Does anyone have any thoughts?

What I don't understand is that Coreplayer on my device has a verry low FPS. BUT when selecting the Benchmark function, the movie will play beautiful... (Only the movie and sound synchronisation is not so best...)
Anybody a working solution? On a different forum, i've read that HTC Album has the best hardware acceleration. They adviced to play movies with thc album (In the mp4 format)

It come on the device. HTC Album

i just can't imagine that there is no possibility to play normal divx/avi movies on my tp2 .. just like on pc.
i don't want to waste my time converting all videos just to watch it on tp2 ..
same prob with subtitle support .. can't be that difficult ?! only tcpmp can play them with an extension .. (and that video playback isn't smooth!)

http://kinoma.com/
give that a try and let us know if you are happy or not please

kinoma doesn't support divx/xvid

i use a free program called handbrake and my settings are 480x320,mpeg4,480 biterate-Audio,AAC 160 biterate. i actually used these settings on my G1 originally but when i got my TP2 i tried a few of the movies out since they wur already on my memory card and they all play and sound great on the default player.

im using coreplayer and ive not had a problem playing any movie downloaded from the net. anything from 700mb to 1.6mb dvd rips, ive watched probably 60 odd and they've all played perfectly. never had to convert anything.
coreplayer is definetely the best thing to get supports pretty much everything
i only use the album player for converted hd content (using the converter someone made on this site) = that plays excellent as well, and looks better (i might be ight in thinking album uses hardward acceleration as well)

Menu > Tools > Preferences > Select Page > Video
Change "Video Output" to GDI if the player is choppy/crappy. On my Telus (CDMA) Touch Pro 2 the QTv Display works fine but I know other HTC devices have required GDI instead.

The playback on this phone sucks big time! Not sure what it is .... coreplayer GDI does not work and Tcpmp with all kinds of tweaks settings does not play videos smooth at all. You can tell there are frame skipping in my phone. My wing plays videos better than this. GEEZ!!!!!

Watching Videos from Touch HD on PC

Hi Guys, i have a noob question.
How do you watch videos from your HD on PC, what player or codec do you use? I can see the image, but MPC reports there is no codec installed for the sound.

Try VLC http://www.videolan.org/

I tried it before, now i tried it again, i get the same message every time for 3gp or mp4:
No suitable decoder module:
VLC does not support the audio or video format "samr". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this.
Does anyone know how to solve this? Where can i Find that codec? I googled it with no results.

As I said, I'm trying to play mp4 or 3gp that I made with my phone on my PC. Thank you guys for your advices. This evening, for the first time since I got my HD, i heard the sound. I'm usimg MPC Home Cinema and Windows 7 x64. I don't know what happened, yesterday nothing worked, and today all is fine !!?? Strange, I didn't install anything except VLC.

I was going to suggest VLC it will play just about anything. My guess would be it has installed the required codecs.
BGF

I think VLC is using it's own codecs, i just tried the demo 3gp from my phone and there is no sound. In MPC Home Cinema x64 everything works fine, i guess it's this latest version (1.3.1249.0)

i've tried vlc, quicktime alternative, mpc, mpc-hc, but still, i always get the same error: ".samr files cannot be opened" or sthng like that.
there's got to be a way...
im using win 7 x32.

Has anyone found a solution for this problem? I am also trying to play videos (that I recorded with the touch HD in mpeg4 format) on my PC, but no player can play the sound. VLC gives me the error that it cannot play samr audio. I also have the full k-lite codec pack installed, but still no sound.
How do you guys play Touch HD videos on your computer?

you most probably know this...
... but here is a reminder...
i view my hd video's on pc.....
by going to video settings on hd......advanced ..capture format and set it to H.263 instead of mpeg4...
i then view it with quicktime..etc..on my pc..!!
...why persist with mpeg 4..?
above method still gets you there ....to view on pc..
(maybe picture quality not fantastic ...but still good to view..)
good luck
