Hi, anyone noes how make my video appear FULL screen on my Omnia?

your videos need tobee 400x240px in resolution to show up full screen. use a high qaulity divx converter to get the resolution and qaulity and use corplayer to play them

u mean i have to download the converter and than convert it and play from corplayer? cant i use my original player?

core player is a freeware (not the one with the phone)
look for TCPMP

if you dont use an encoder the videos youll most likely get will be vga or qvga. to got the full widescreen thing you need to encode it personally, youchplayer will play them okay

how to watch long movies on the vox

Maybe this is a really dumb question,
but i have this problem with longer movies, say 50 movies. If i watch them on my phone they hang and lag terribly! i dont know what the problem is... short movies arent the problem! plz help
which player do u use?
try tcpmp.
i watch much longer movies using that and no lag.

maybe the video you are watching is too big to handle for the vox's cpu ? if thats the case.. then use PocketDivXEncoder to scale down the file and qulity, which you can't see on the phone.. This allways works and you won't have any lag at all .. ! Try it, its free.. Not only that but your video files will get much smaller in size!
It usually is a memory problem. You should reencode them to lower bitrates and/or resolution and use a codec that doesn't need much processing power!
EDIT: Ups you were faster!

Hehe well then it just got confirmed..
But my suggestion would be that you use TCMP and then encode your videoes with PocketDivXEncoder.. It encodes the movies in divx format which TCPMP supports fully..
Good TIPS Friends... I convert all movies to MP4 format and plau using my default 710 (Windows Media Player). No issue for me. I will also have a try of TCPMP player and compare it Hope this will be much light for phone memory
Q: What format is best for pocket pc (MP4 or Divx converted by PocketDivXEncoder) ?

Video Recoding Tutorial - Video Settings
I worked on this pretty long and finally I do it this way:
Convert my videos with "Any Video Converter" (Freeware, google for it).
Use the following setting and the video will flow easily and the quality remains good:
Profile (defines the format): Mobile Phone MPEG-4 Movie
Codec: mpeg4
Size: 320x240 or 220x176, in this case size doesn´t really matter and does not effect the filesize that much.
Videobitrate: 96 kb/s is enough and gives u a good videoquality, the audioquality is more important, especially when u listen on the build in speakers.
video framerate: 15 fps (frames per second) are enough for fluid playback.
Audio Bitrate at least 128kbs, lower bitrate will sound like a tin.
Samplerate: 48000, sothat the audio is synch to the video.​
So finally u will get a 90min. movie with about 130-150MB. That sounds little, but believe me, the quality is as good as a 300MB movie. If the quality is bad, the original movie itself has alot of pixelfractures in it.
U can watch the movie in win-mediaplayer without any codec-problems.
I got about 30 full length movies on my 4GB storagecard on VOX.
Here are my tips:
U can batch-encode them, just load the movies in the prog an check all boxes, do the settings once and let the prog recode all movies.
U can merge 2 files into 1. if u got the movie in 2 parts for example. just check the 2 files and rightclick merge down.
Check the aspectratio of your movies. in most cases it´s no problem with 320x240 size, but if u haven´t got a 16:9 movie, for example a 4:3 or widescreen without letterboxes, the movie will not be shown correctly, concerning the ratio. in this case set the size to "original", and probably change the settings in win mediaplayer not to fit the video automatically on screen.
What increases or decreases filesize the most are the video and audio bitrates.
Tried it a million times, the settings here are the best. otherwise u will get a huge filesize with almost no better video quality. But don´t get lower than the settings I mentioned above.
so thats my way, works best!!
PS: It´s actually not a matter of what player u use, it´s just that videoplayback in general uses the cpu heavily. But even if u got a better phone with better cpu u can use this settings, as I mentioned, u cannot see alot of diffrence to an 300MB movie, but u will be able to store the doubled amount of movies on your sd-card.

play 1080p (HD) video on HTC HD2

hello is there any player can play 1080p video.
thanks
hi.. first of all, we do have a specialized Q&A forum, so please post your question here so it would be better assisted.
as a reference to your question, you won't get any joy in playing 1080p video on a WVGA screen (480widex800high). the picture just wouldn't fit (1080p hd is, you guessed it, 1080 high)..
but if you want to force it, there will be a lot of processing involved to scale the picture down to a resolution an HD2 could play... nicely. it's like forcing a BlueRay player to play HD movies on a Standard TV or playing Halo 3 on your grandma's bunny-ear kitchen TV (though it would play, it's just not worth it).
it would be pointless to develop an application to do such on a device that simply won't cut it anyway. well, except if you want to use a TV out function (to play the video on an HDTV - making your device an HD media box), which the HD2 doesn't have.
so to answer your question. No. none that i know of.. but you know what? try to post it on the forum link i gave you and you might get lucky..
good luck.

The joy would be not having to convert it before watching! I think it would be great. But I don't know of a player that can do it sadly.

Moved as not software release.
Resolution is not big enough for it.

Choppy video?

I was curious if anyone else is having chopping video performance on a 1080p video? I have 720p videos play fine but 1080p video's stutter every few seconds. Any ideas? Its hard to show off the screen when video playback is poor.
There is no difference between a 720p video and a 1080p video on this phone. The screens not big enough to make a difference. Convert your video to 720p or lower if u want to play it on your phone.

He is correct. Make sure you convert the video to the proper resolution and format for best performance. No need to make the phone work harder to decode video from a format you will not gain from.
Storing 1080p video would only seem to benefit if you intend to use an external display. Are you using an external adapter(usb to hdmi or analog) for playback?
Thanks for the replies. I knew that this was the case. When testing the video capabilities, I downloaded a bunch of random HD video samples. Some 720p some 1080p. The 1080p seems to work flawlessly if I taskill everything but I shouldn't have to do that. I guess I'll just stick to 720p unless I'm hooking up to a TV.

Imtoo HD is best for me, can setup 854x480 full screen.
Sed from my X10i @BKK
With Rockplayer from the Android Market you woun't ever have to convert a video again. It plays all formats including mkv out of the box!
Sent from my X10i using Tapatalk
I use SUPER ©
Yes use Rockplayer
After second "Rockplayer" - it really does away with having to spend hours converting "most" movies
somebody really still converting?
Yes, I still do it, because movies take less space on my SD card once they are in MP4 (with the right format) instead of original format.
I cannot change movies every nigth, I have to store 6 or 7 for the week... (and music, and pictures, and...)
thank you
thank you guys
i will try it all..
and yaa instead of direct copy i prefer to convert it becoz it take less memory on my SD card thats why
but you can save much time with bigger sd-card an the rockplayer...

SUPER is NOT a media player, its a video converter to use in your PC.
on my X10i (unbranded) the SE Mediascape video player plays better than Rock player, the sound is in sync more than Rock player for example.
I have also used "IM TOO" but found it very slow. (1.5 hours to encode a 30 minute episode of Alan Partridge.
I now use WinX DVD Ripper winxdvd d0t c0m (no I dont work for them).
If this is spyware or whatever please let me know, but in encodes a DVD film in 45 mins (even a Disney one with all that special encoding)
My question is....
"what is the ultimate setting for encoding a DVD to MP4 for the X10i?
Please do not reply if you are just guessing, the X10i does not like frame rate 30 for example..
thanks
x2 on using Super as the video convertor. It's free and it offers more features than most other video convertors.
but with RockPlayer (and yxplayer for some files) I no longer need to convert. my 16gb only stores documents, some pictures, and videos but no mp3 since i'd rather listen to streaming internet radio than download mp3s.
the "best" video setting will depend on how you rate video quality. imo, for smoothness and when you are watching movies, i'd go with 23 fps or less, and have high bitrate but reduced resolution (above half the resolution of the lcd display).
video conversion speeds depends mainly on your video converting settings (format, bitrate, resolution, etc.) and your CPU power, not the software.. just fyi.
I am currently using xmedia recode.
I use the settings for the Motorola Milestone when converting, as for some reason the X10 settings mess the audio up.
Pretty quick, and audio/visual sync is spot on
It doesn't matter what to use.
for example, I convert films from my 720p/1080p hd collection, using parameters, such as 854x480 resolution, 160 kbit audio bitrate and 1000-1200 kbit video bitrate.
And it looks like I watch a real hd video! The picture is perfect! Enjoy
Oh, and I noticed, that it's better to use h264 codecs with *.mkv container than mpeg4 with .mp4 and .avi
RockPlayer is the best for my monster-like videos Avatar with 1200 video bitrate and near 2gb file size works without any lags. This is the power of nice program code (thx for RockPlayer devs) with the connection of Snapdragon processor

[Q] Playing movies: I just don't get it...

Hi there,
I would like to have movies played on my HD2, but somehow I just don't get it right.
I've searched the internet as well as this forum for the right video converter that would show my movies on my HD2 (together with the subtitles as they are in the original movie) in full screen. I'm stuck...
Could anyone please help me out here? When I check a link, that is mentioned in the forum, I get a thousand others. To me, it's all very confusing... To which format should I convert a movie to have it shown on my HD2 in full screen? What player should I use on my HD2? Would it be possible to (de)activate the subtitles in that player? For instance, I've converted the movie "SALT" to my HD2, but the movie is NOT in full screen, and it's subtitles are gone...
I'm way open to suggestions.
Thanking you in advance!!
Robert
The best player... pretty much the ONLY movie player worth bothering with on windows mobile... is coreplayer. The cab I use is attached.
Coreplayer can fullscreen, but you may need to play with aspect ratio settings to make it take up the entire screen (as the movie will often fill the width of the screen, but won't fill the height... doing so would make everyone look tall and thin, or you'd have to crop the left and right sides of the movie).
Here's a thread with the info on subtitles.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-345995.html
I guess there's a subtitle plugin for coreplayer that you must download separately, but it doesn't take popular subtitle formats. So you must convert the subtitle to a format that coreplayer likes (on your PC) first. The movie itself may or may not need to be converted depending on the format. Core plays most things without the need for conversion, but some types (not all) of mp4 or mkv won't play without conversion. Also you'll need to convert if the movie is true high-def. A 720p or 1080p isn't going to play smoothly on the phone, but something like 720 x 304 will play fine.
