greetings! im still new to these forums (and to the atrix, only had it for a week), but i figured i'd share something that some people might find interesting.
http://www.dvdvideosoft.com/products/dvd/Free-Video-to-Motorola-Phones-Converter.htm
DVDVideoSoft have been around for a while making a bunch of free video converters for many applications. however, previously it was a bit messy and finicky to make a suitable profile for a particular device since you had to edit the xml file and try to figure out a decent setting for certain vids.
i noticed that a while back they disabled the ability to edit the xml files to create your own video converting profiles, so i stopped using them.
but randomly i figured id give them a go again today. found out that they added a preset editor so we can create our own profiles to suit our motorola atrix.

ive circled the button that allows you to tap into the preset editor.
these are the settings im using to convert for my atrix. 960x540 resolution.
i recommend setting the framerate to 30fps. if your source video is running at less than 30fps, the program will stick to the same framerate as the source video. however, if you set the framerate lower than the source video's framerate, you'll lose frames.
as for bitrate, i havent had much time to mess around with it. 2.5mbps looks pretty, but you should able to go as low as 1.5mbps with minimal sacrifice on image quality, and it will make the file size a lot lower.
with audio bitrate, this is a personal preference. i dont like going below 192kbps, but some people wont notice the difference.
after that, just rename the profile to whatever you'd like, and happy converting.
the program isnt the fastest available, but its simple and works well enough. the videos play well on my atrix using the default video player and look pretty awesome.
enjoy!
Thank ye very much.
Testing now.
It's main test: Softsubs.
Gotta get my anime fix on the go.
Report: Does not work on .ass type softsubs.

Would anyone care to list the best settings to use for TCPMP on the Jasjar/Universal?
What is the best video driver, what should be buffer sizes, microdrive?, preload at underrun etc etc...I have tried playing around with them, but not really sure what I'm doing, so would appreciate some help here.
Thanks in advance.
You don't have a microdrive - that's the old IBM (I think) Compact flash hardrives.

Otherwise, I think the graphics should be set for xscale, and most of the other stuff is to personal taste I think. I've never fiddled to much with it and it works well enough.
Preload and buffering are again for loading up a certain amount of data to RAM before playing media. I've never needed to play with the settings.
What kinds of things are you (potentially?) having troubles with?
V
The usual slightly jerky video replay on files. Even WMV files that play perfectly in WMP on the Jasjar, seem to struggle a bit in TCPMP. I thought I might be able to reduce some of the jerkiness by tweaking the settings, but being the plank that I am, I don't really know or understand what they do.
I think the video accelerator option being set to xscale is pretty much the best you can do.
Try playing with lower sound quality to check.
Try increasing the "normal buffer" slightly, I keep mine at 2400k; too high and it may hinder performance because the system will be fighting for resources.
Ignore microdrive.
In advanced you can try "prefer less buffering", but I don't use it and have no problems.
"lookup tables over arithmetic" should help, but again, I don't use it.
On xscale I tick all three.
What resultion/bitrate are the files?
V
The only setting I have played with is in the advanced menu is the "Manual A/V offset +/-" . I have selected -130ms in order to get the lip sync right.
I read on another site some chap thats done alot of testing of TCPMP, and im sure the best gfx performance was when on RAW. summut like 40% better performance over the rest.
Just making sure that everyone knows there's a new version of TCPMP available - Version 0.70
Any major changes?
Not that I can see...a new plugin for speex or something that I've never heard of...

Hi everyone,
Has anyone tried to play heavy mkv files?
The Intel A110/GMA950 handles it well?
Not that I will watch on the shift but would be nice to out it to tv monitor..
If not has anyone tested it with less heavier but still high quality videos?
Mine is arriving in 5 days so I am not able to test yet..
Thanks!
Countdown!
365 days...(first time I read about it...)

Did you get the video to work... looking at getting one but am worried about the speed of the machine... I know it's not a racecar, but I would like to be able to play a movie, do general Office 2007 work etc... what's your impression?
thanks!

Office 2007 is working perfect. I installed the Enterprise version with full installation
Movies did not play well, but I must confess my energy state was "power saver".
I don't know how it is with "performance"
Will try that later.
I paly movies on mine and have no problems after installing the correct codecs.
this is the typical specs for the movies i watch, either in DivX or mp4

Me too.
Divx movies run smoothly. (first installed K-lite mega codec pack.)
grtz,
Pfeffa-rah
could someone try to run mkv videos on the shift and post some results?
I'm in a bit of doubt regarding shift playing them smoothly. The intel gma950 should be able to handle them without much problems, also the RAM memory should be enought but however I'm concerned about the processor. Try to run the videos by allocating higher priority from vista's task manager to the video player and it's process.
HI everybody here,
That must sound unbelievable, you know, I am not an expert, and I even do not have the Flash program, but I successfully convert thousands of videos to flash videos, and then I upload them to my personal website. ? That’s amazing! I never thought I can accomplish it so easily. Thanks for that outstanding program-Flash Video MX Pro, it saves so much of my time and energy, and at the same time offers me such great benefits.
You will be surprised, that I only use its batch encoder to convert many videos in one time. Moyea Flash Video MX Pro is so lovely and I can not help showing you the steps from which I make miracle.
Do you see the picture below?

It is the interface of its batch encoder. Click the button “Import Video”, you can load many average video into these program at one time, I imported these videos by one time, then click “Start”, you can not even to wait for its result, just do other things, then you can go to the export folder to get the Flash video. Just so easy, is it cool?
Of course, if you want to personalize your video, you can also click “Customize” to make your video distinguished. Just have a try; you will love this tool as I do.
Good luck and thanks for sharing my happy experience!
You work for this company, don't you...
Does this work? Looks nice. Virus?
SPAM just a simple file converter for your PC !

It is not virus. Absolutely. I have tried. It can process many many files at a time.
if you are interested, you can search Moyea Flash Video MX Pro in google for more information.
It has two modes: normal and batch encoder.
.....Spam.....
Wow thanks a lot I can now watch Youtube vids on my mobile !
btw does it work on Pentium II ?
.....Spam.....
You could've at least tried to be subtle about your blatant advertising.
this tool seems not bad,now i want to convert M4V to swf,on working.can help?
AR Resize
Download: http://www.sendspace.com/file/qt61s0
Description: Adjust video aspect to better fit widescreen videos onto mobile devices' screens. Very fast, no video recoding. Windows-based. MP4 only.
Use: Unzip to a folder. Drag-drop videos onto AR_RESIZE.CMD to change their aspects. To restore to original aspect, drag-drop on AR_RESTORE.CMD.
Notes:
. Degree of aspect change is adjustable. To change, edit AR_RESIZE.CMD and search for set "_fudge=7". Possible values are from 0 to 10, where 0 = no video aspect change, and 10 = change to fully fit device screen. Samples below.
. Since this changes a value in the MP4 container, not all players are compliant. Anamorphic videos may be less compatible. Feedback on Xoom player (and 3rd-party Droid players) are welcomed.
DVD Catalyst just added this functionality too for Xoom rip although I am no fan of stretching my videos around.
Cool editing the MP4 info though.
The above is non-permanent and reversible, which is vastly preferable to having to re-encoding the video. As of this point, it doesn't do side-cropping, since I know of no way to do soft-cropping via MP4 container specs.
I'll implement soft-crop once there is a decent media player for Android that can handle the MKV format. MKVMerge has a cropping function, but sadly, most players won't recognize it. Since the MKV container is sponsored by the Core peeps, I'll be certain to get them to implement it for CorePlayer (if it's not already), and I'll be on the VLC forums as well.
I've always hated watching TV's where people distort the sd to widescreen. if the ratio isn't set properly it drives me crazy.
I agree, distorting AR isn't a good option, but it's between the bad and the worse. There are a few gazillion tablets out there with 4:3 aspect.
Which of the below looks the worst to you?
I hadn't realized that Leonidas was made out of the same material that Gumby is...Thanks for this.
Better image resizing examples. First image is of 300 trailer (2.41 AR) on the iPad, second is of same on the Xoom.

The video capabilities on the OPPO Find X5 Pro are some of the most impressive that we have seen from this series so far. While you're able to shoot brilliant 4K footage with ease, OPPO included a feature for more advanced videographers that will give you more control over the way your footage looks. In the different filming modes available, you'll find the MOVIE option. This mode enabled several different features, but videographers will probably be most excited about the ability to shoot in LOG.
LOG is a filming profile that gives you a greater dynamic range and freedom in post-processing. While shooting your footage you might think that the video looks washed out or a little grey. That is because this footage is meant to be edited using professional software. You'll be able to tweak the color to look exactly how you want. This is the process that all movie footage goes through, in big productions.
Ho to Film in LOG on the OPPO Find X5 ProTo access this great feature, follow these steps:
Open your camera app
Go to MOVIE mode
Toggle LOG on the left menu
When shooting in LOG, all of your manual controls will still be accessible.

Hot to Edit Footage Shot in LOGNow that you have your footage, you'll want to use a professional editing app that will let you adjust the colors of your shot. Avoid using premade filters that tend to be included with smartphone editing software. Instead, try something like Adobe Premiere Rush: Video. Try using LUTs if you're a beginner at color grading, then tweak the look of the video from there.
LOG offers creators more control over their style and the overall result of their video. The addition of this feature to the OPPO Find X5 Pro is fantastic, and you should definitely try it out.
Thanks to OPPO for supporting this thread.
