Hi,
Is there any app like "MediaInfo" ?
App that can read media file and view the detail of it?
Codec, FPS, resolution, etc.
Just to read the info ... not playing it.

Ive used WMP and TCPMP.72 RCO (not sure if thats the name), but for some reason it is still selective over the videos it plays. I managed to get a video 183 mb working fine but other videos in its range wont, while some play sounds with no video. Why is that? is there a limit to the video's quality or size?
I posted this in the XDA general area but put it here incase it had something to do with it being a Wing...any comments on how this can be fixed would be appreciated thanks

To play video on your wing you must convert all video to .3GP format with the following video settings.
320x240 @ 15fps
Actually that is incorrect. The wing will play video files in wmv, mpg, and 3gp through windows media player. TCPMP (The core pocket media player) can play files in avi. I use either Spb mobile dvd or Super to convert my videos. Super has a "convert to avi for pocket pc" option and then you can experiment and tweak it to your liking.
Hi,
I developed and app for win.mob.6 for video capture live streaming using direct show filter. WMV9 encoder has very low performance of framerate no more 4 fps with lower res.
I am testing the app on HTC touch dual. I tried to enum all filters availables, but I found only WMV9 Encoder. The original app cam coder can create 3gp file with h263+amr-nb. I'd like to know how is possibile this !!! no h263 filter encoder are available.
I am looking for an htc WM5/6 model that can capture video frames encoded to 15 fps with a mid res 170x140.
help please.
thanks
Hi fala70,
I am sorry but I couldnt quite understand what it is your current status.
Have you developed the application and it is working or you would like to do it now?
What do you mean 'original' application. Are you based on an open source example or something?
Nice subject though!
This issue has been discussed quite a number of times (I asked the same thing a few months ago) but no resolution as come out so far. I think HTC does not allow its "private" encoders to be "enumerated".
My status it that I want understand if is possible to use an other codec encoder different from WMV9. WmV9 is too slow.

I'd like to convert a WMV 640x480 video to a format that can be played by the Tattoo.
I'm using Videolan VLC for the conversion, but I can't find a configuration producing a video that is accepted by the Tattoo.
Can someone help me please with some precise details about video/audio formats, bitrates, and pixel height/width?
I'm not looking for a best quality conversion, just something that works.
Thanks.

Create a Video With 240 x 320 Resolution and mp4/mp3 Video/Audio format.
Is there any apps that can view X264 mp4 videos?
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
I think yes but you need to pay for it. Dont know the name of the app yet.

I can't find it on the droid market.

@helpneeded: Have you tried Rock Player ? The free version is exactly the same as the paid version, except for the unobstrusive ad.
Okay I use the "Act 1 player" it was able to play all of my video/movie files.
Sent from my LG-P500
I've tried both the rockplayer and act 1. Both apps are unable to play the X264 format.

i transcoded some videos with handbrake (to x264) and they work on mVideoPlayer, and the stock android video player, even in doubletwist
How do you do that? Cos I've downloaded some X264 videos from the web and it doesn't play on my droid.

I hope you do realize there's a limit concerning the resolution of the video file you're trying to play on Optimus One. As far as I know, the limit is 640x360 (according to this review). So you need to convert your files to fit O1's screen, the width in particular (480 px maximum, for landscape viewing). If you're trying to play files with resolutions bigger than that, RockPlayer on "software decoding mode" might work, but the rendering will be horribly slow.
Later edit: similar limits apply to the bitrate (3 mbps max.) and file size (should be under 1 GB).
NOTE: I did not test these values myself, I am always converting the files to fit my phone's screen and I keep a low bitrate (~512 mbps) because this saves space and battery.

I don't remember where did i saw the settings for handbrake, but there you go my custom preset for optimus one (using handbrake 0.9.5)
Thanks for this man! I have messed around with it and couldn't figure out the settings for Handbrake. In my case there was video, but no audio. I thought it couldn't play ACC, just Mp3. But that is not the case, it can play ACC with proper video resolution.
Thanks a lot! Saved the day!
I use Xilisoft Video Converter Ultimate and the settings are as follows:
_ Video codec: MPEG-4
_ Video bitrate: 2500kbps (more on this later)
_ Video fps: 29.97fps
_ Video resolution: 480x320 (of course)
_ Audio codec: MPEG-4 AAC
_ Audio bitrate: 128kbps (raise if you use a headphone. I just use the default speaker which is mediocre so I don't need much audio clearance)
_ Everything else is at default.
The result is pretty good. The video played flawlessly on the default 'Video player' app which comes with P500. The video quality is very good and the playing is smooth, no lag found, seeking is fast too.
Now about the bitrate: I have tested up to 4000kbps and the default video player still managed to play it just fine, with some lags here and there. I choose 2500 because it is balanced between quality and file size, a 5 minute video clip takes about 70-80Mb in this setting.
hi ppl
use standard Divx converter(free to download in Divx website- dont use mobile version) or AnyVideoConverter(AVC)- also a free converter...
in AVC u can encode with x264 with 640*320 or 360
bitrate 512 n frame rate 25/23.9 anything, n audio in aac for rockplayer n mp3 for all others
use rockplayer where u hav d option to stretch d video to screen size
or use meredian player --- very nice...
Open root explorer click mount R/W, then go to /system/ open Build.prop.
stagefright.enable-player=(in your case it is true) and instead of true change it to false
I think that restart is required. It works for me.
This will open .avi .mpg .mpeg files from your stock video player without lagging on playback.
PLEASE RESPOND BACK AND HIT THANKS IF I HELPED YOU

Second that.
I tried playing an x264 mp4 video and moboplayer works smoothly.
mobo player! It can play a ton of video formats.
I was wondering if it would be possible to make an App like the Avatar App or Inception App on the Vibrant/4G for different movies? Has anyone done this before? Thanks.

It would help those us that have no idea what those apps do if you would explain what it is you want to do in a little more detail.
i like this idea, would be pretty cool. instead of searching for it through the gallery.

The app would just link to the movie file. For example, the Avatar App when clicked would simply load up the Avatar movie, Inception app would load up Inception movie.
Where is the actual movie file?
At any rate, you can play a video file, local or networked, using the MediaPlayer class and a SurfaceView.

the video file is located on either the internal or external memory. The app will just be a shortcut to the file. So instead of having to go to the gallery and clicking on it, the app will open the file in a video player.
See how it works at 10:29 in this video.
