Hello guys ;
I'm wondering if anybody know the exact and final details of how to convert regular avi or DVD movies to fit into my Xperia X2.
the original file is with excellent quality on X2 but slow somehow.
I'm using Any Video converter to convert it to MP4 and i can find no certain profile for Xperia ( although ) all smart phones and I phones has profiles for direct conversions there.
However , i tried custom settings ( like 420x320 , 480x 400 )and they work not bad ,but i wanted to know if anybody know the perfect format for mp4 on X2
Also, it'll be great if anybody know how to keep the regular DVD quality but to solve the slow and scatters frames on the original file when played on X2..
thanks
definitely wrong forum, also check X2 subs for already existing threads on this, not sure
therefore...
Mod. edit: wrong device forum, moved to X2 general

I`ve recently upgraded from a Sony Ericsson P910i to an O2 XDA Exec.
What I`m after is help with converting my DVD\Divx movies into something that can be played on the Exec.
I`ve spotted a few programs on www.handango.co.uk and www.expansys.com.
But am confussed...Which is best?
And what settings to use in terms of resolution, frame rate, etc.
Have a read of this link, you dont need to buy any software and the results are excellent

I would suggest MacTheRipper and ffmpegX, both of which are excellent.
Best Player
Many thanks.
I love the guide...Very easy to follow.
A couple of more questions...
Whats the best video player for the Exec?
If Windows Media Player is best then how can I get this to play Dixv\Xvid files?
I think this is the best one to date.

its very good
So does this mean that you dudes don`t recommend getting the off-the-shelf one-click dvd convertors?
are you chaps finding that the video isnt completely smooth using tcpmp?
plug the JJ into the mains, you'll see an improvement in video playback over a certain resolution, smaller vids play fine anyway
BEST DVD - PPC Program
I bought Pocket DVD studio after trying it out - it was quite cheap., and in my opinion works great...
Thsi encodes them to WMV files (Windows Meida Version 9) - which media player can play. YES I KNOw - there are better players ot there...
http://www.pqdvd.com/watch_dvd_on_pocket_pc.html
I also bought DVD-to-PocketPC - THIS IS CRAP. It crops the videos to 4:3 aspect on some of the DVDs that I wanted to convert.
Their support was CRAP - yes they emailed me back and told me to read the help !!!!! - which is what I had done - and told them in the email that I had... a complete waste of money[/url]
hi guys,
im looking for something to compress some home/family movie clips to my phone. they are about 3gb each and i would really like to get them down to as small as possible say 100mb-500mb or whatever is possible.
been searching the web and cant really find anything. the best i found was to convert to divx
any help please
you could use something like an ipod converter so it will majorly cut it down in size (though it may be the wrong resolution and look crap), or try dvd2avi and specifically set the resolution u want it to
cool mate thank you very much trying it now
personally i use Gordian Knot.
It is a program that uses a combination of smaller products (hence the name Knot) (like DVD-ripper, Virtual Dub, Vobsub etc) in order to rip a dvd.
You can use it for ripping dvds as well as modifying a movie. You can select the resolution yourself, a long with a lot of features.
I have to say that this is a bit advanced and you will get lost if you dont do your homework...There is a tutorial (google is your friend ) and once you do that you should be set to go..
Just a note, when i started using it, progress was slow but now i can do everything quite fast..
If you have the time, patience and good quality movies, you cant go wrong with this
ps: i make xvid format films with it, but divx is also supported

and nobody uses this anymore because there are 1click solutions that do it better and faster... this is a tool that is 5000 years old
To convert from dvd, xvid, divx, ... to an avi/wmv that fits on your htc, without tutorials, without advanced nonsense go for SPB mobile DVD
you can even tell the converter to not exceed a certain filesize, so I guess this fits yours needs perfectly
I have found iSoft DVD to PPC converter to be the best I have come across so far. I have been looking at this type of software since I bought a 4GB Sony Ericsson about 3 years ago approx. I have used the iSoft about 11 times already to convert the 11 DVD's I currently have on my 16GB Touch Pro
i like clonedvdmobile or spb mobile dvd
otherwise there are plenty of movie convertors which will convert/downsize movies
Guys,
I'm using Super as per this link ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3103846&postcount=394 ) to re-encode my video files for optimum playing on my Touch HD.
However whenever I choose Flash video it shows he output file to be an SWF and not FLV.
I have a later build than that shown in the picture and I can't get it to say FLV.
Can somebody help?
Thanks
EDIT: Scrap that I clicked encode and it gave me the option then...sorry - consider closed
hold up a sec pls.
this is even more of a newb question but..
What if you just want to covert a simple naughty mpg file from limewire etc?
would you still need to buy Coreplayer to get good result?
I'm using the old settings from my n95 atm so any basic settings appreciated.
That's a good question. quite frankly my Artemis was easier to use in terms of video playback...I encoded with PocketDivxEncoder and made the res smaller and job done. However I find lots of videos playing better in ALBUM than in Coreplayer (which is shocking in most flicks to be fair).
I have yet to find a "one size fits all" guide. I grab mostly XVIDs and want to convert them (I'm now downloading 720p rips and I'll see how they convert to FLV)...I converted a 720p trailer to FLV and it's lovely!
oh ok thanks.
I really have read up a bit more on the Wiki or other stickies cos I think I understood about two words of that second paragraph
I just wanna convert some free porn that's all..
If you want the perfect videos for the Touch HD, use this tool:
HTC Touch Video Converter
It has the optimal settings and is very easy to use.
...and it also doesn't give me very good videos to play - I think perhaps it's my source vid?
I used the coverter for more than 100 files already (HDTV and SDTV) and all have very good quality.
One thing is important for playback:
You MUST use Windows Media Player or the HTC Album for playback !
Only these programs can utilize the hardware acceleration and you need it, because the converted files are close to the maximum the HD can play.
If you still don't get good results, I guess you are right and the source file isn't the best.
Maybe you try some other files to see where the problem is.
ok well im slowly getting to grips with my touch, now obviously it comes with windows media player, i have also installed core player.
on my pc i have total video convertor and pocket divx convertor. which program should i be using to convert various avi's that i have to get the best quality, what format should i be converting into, and what program should i be using on my touch to watch them, iv had a few attempts and everything i convert seems to come out rather jumpy etc and just not good to watch.
thankyou.
Please use the search function or atleast google. This has been addressed many times over. In fact, it's been discussed so much that several great xda members have even made various programs/applications which will convert whatever input to an output which performs best on the HD. Most of these are in the Applications part of the Blackstone forum.
In a nutshell, the built in TF3D player is the best way to go since it's the only player which uses hardware acceleration and will give best results when playing mp4.
sincere apologies, i was just being lazy
will search now and delete core player lol
Hello pugme
Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467112 and download this free video converter it’s the best one out there. The Touch HD has its own player and the quality of these 2 apps together is superb. If you put the converted films on to your sd card in a folder called films or what ever you want then start/programs/album/albums/storage card/films then select to play or add albums to your programs short cut.
Quality when watching is like half hd
use Duttys ROM with coreplayer i can play pretty much anything i want without jumping, dont get me wrong the converting programs on here are very good but why convert if you dont have too!
My knowledge of formats,computers and mobile devices are pretty crap IM learning so please 4give me......
I want watch a full length film on my handset n having few problems
Wat format i need the film be? I downloaded films in mp4,and .avi there on my PC
But the file is understandably massive,do i compress it using winzip? Just i tried and dnt seem 2transfer over takes ages anyideas or pointers would b grateful thanx
Try TCPMP-0.72RC1 app...good luck!
You can find it here if you dont already have found it. Very good application, sad it isn't being developed any more.
http://picard.exceed.hu/tcpmp/test/tcpmp.smartphone.0.72RC1.cab
does anybody know if there is .flv plugin exist for TCPMP 0.72RC1 ? I couldn't get it work with flash video files, thanks in advance.
Find an software called "Touch HD Converter" and it may help you to convert videos that's fit to resolution and bitrate for Touch HD. And if you are trying to transfer huge file from PC to PPC, I sugget you swtiching the USB Mode from ActiveSync to 'Storage Card' for the best performace.
TCPMP or Coreplayer but better if you use HD Converter.
If Videos are big better solution is take off MicroSD and copy them with a CardReader.

Apart from this thread having 0 to do with ROM Development, how would using a card reader be any different from using the HD in USB mode? The mem card I use is class 4 and gives me a transfer rate of between 1-5Mbps the HD is a card reader, supports (SD 2.0 compatible) and USB 2.0 therefore it will pretty much use full transfer rates of any compatible SDHC cards.
mmm
Screw that stuff mate above, get yourself a copy of CorePlayer from somewhere. You don't have to convert anything, just copy the TV shows or movies you get off the internet to your memory card on your phone and it plays them straight off with no converting.
if you want maximum quality (ie dvd rips, blue ray rips, hd broadcasting rips, etc), go for this app: Mp4ForHD.
it converts almost any audio/video file to mp4, which is the best handled for touch hd. you want subtitles? it also hard code subtitle files perfectly.
this is my post describing my first experience with it.
for maximum performance in reproducing the video file, it may sound weird, but use the built in WMP or the 'album player'. by now, these are the media players that can use better the video capabilities (video acceleration is still not fully supported on touch hd by coreplayer or any other 3rd party app).
and you can also install neos2007 driverpack 3. its topic is posted in the touch hd rom section. they can take some extra juice when it comes to video performance.
simply the best video converter for the blackstone

any .flv file video (ie., youtube) you've downloaded convert them first to a .wmv file, then use this program! THANKS TO Projection
MOD EDIT
Move to General Discussion as not related to rom development
This is classed as warez, as you are not paying for the movies you watch and download its piracy, if the mods see this thread you'll get in trouble lol
