Well, as the title said, should I get the new polaris or should I get the tytn II or perhaps touch/dual touch because of its size?
are you guys happy with the polaris? does it fit your pockets? tell me..

Polaris fits my pocket really nicely and I'm 5'8" and pretty slim build so I don't have big pockets! I really like it. I am an ex Palm PDA user for many years though so I am 100% comfortable with, in fact I prefer, not having a keyboard.

Yeah the keyboard is a real killer for "cool"ness
And indeed if fits in my pocket, with some spare room. Don't forget the Touch Dual doesn't have GPS and Wi-fi...

Yeah! Plus spinning wheel and ergonomics
Yeah, as long as you don't want to watch any videoclips...

Don't have one, but based on HTC Class Action, the HTC TC /Polaris is one of the many HTC models which is not able to stream video at a decent rate, right?
Much depends on the selected codec.
3GP (.mp4) movies at the correct resolution 320x240 run smoothly for example. Don't try running 800x600 or so, that will get you into trouble, like on most cellular phones, don't know about other PDA's, but the Cruise definitely DOESN'T outperform its predecessors.

I disagree
Based on my own experience it's able to play video at decent rate.
Maybe there are devices better for this use but Cruise plays video not bad.
If I can give you an advice: try it!

Hmm, not interested in YouTube, even though they have some cool video's.
Recoding video's is no problem for me though. You're saying thay any video, even the ones with fast moving action, will play good on a Touch Cruise as long as I recode them to 320x240?

I also agree, heavy motion is not an issue, rescaling is.
So you're saying that the problems mentioned with the HTC series basically boil down to people trying to view their 700MB avi movie files without recording?
And that recoding those movies will solve any/all playback problems?

Don't have Polaris yet, but in this moment I don't see any worthy competition...
And for what I need it, I think I'll be more than satisfied.

That depends on the encoding format I think. I've tried a rather small H.264 movie, and although the specs say it should play it, it's horribly slow... Lower complexity encodings should be used instead, but of course, transcoding your entire libraby of movies is mostly not an option...
I have probably decided to go for polaris since it seems to be much appreciated!
Like I said before, i have already own a hermes (tytn) and don't use the keyboard, I have grown attached to the touch dual which I have tried for a couple of days.
Since the polaris seems to have nearly the same size I will go for it!
/soon to be polaris owner..

Hello again after 1 month...
I have lost from here, because as allready know my Desire Has been Fu**ed up iin testing of a rom who will Record Videos @720p With 30fps...
Now working 1 month on this Project with the help from a new friend (HTC HELLAS Technician) and with the help from my old friend Mr Lazaros (some here maybee know him) we make this true...
I want to thanks ACE HELLAS (HTC in Greece) who give me a New Desire (replacement of my burned desire) and also give me a marketing purpose (DEMO DEVICE) Htc desire to make all of my tests on this device.
Also i want to thanks all this guys who give me donates for this project
Now on the Project...
The good News:
The video recorder Shoot Videos @ 30 fps
I have modify a lot of HTC Drivers (wifi works like gigabit wired network... Require Draft n access point)
All of the Installed Programs is Updatable
IF YOU HAVE THE PREVIEWS Roufianos ROM YOU DONT NEED TO MAKE WIPE
The Rom is Ready for production (i will delay it 5-6 days to make sure that will work ok, and will not do the same to the Demo device )
The Bad News:
If you record Videos more than ~3Minutes you feel the desire hotness*
To work with the best results @30fps you need to have a good MicroSD (+8x)
Here is the Sample Video of my New Rom:
http://pameplateia.com/video/73K5W4D79936/Roufianos-V6-720p-Sample
*to resolve the hotness problem, you have to "slow" the brightness of the screen, this problem dont exists to HTC DESIRE With the News screens SLCD (sony Screens), i have test it t my new desire....
Stay tuned
lol but...what exactly you have modified?build prop? librarys? xml decoding?
Can't exits risk to burn out desire like your last amoled desire?
And, if you don't have source of 2.2 sense, how do you modify drivers?
omg! that video is sooo smooth! nice!

The Drivers its not 100% modified, its has been taked from other HTC Android Device who is 100% compatible with desire and works much more faster... if you want more details about this, i will send you later PM with this, because i dont choose it this by myself... Its 100% safe to use the rom, and for this reasson i will keep it unreleased for 5-6 days.
A friend told me that in the next HTC OTA Update (FROYO 2.2) will replace the drivers, because he have built it from the scratch for the Desire...
Also, for all this who want to Change the old screen of desire:
YOU CANOT Change it, because you have to change AND THE MAINBOARD of desire...
i preffer the Old AMOLED from samsung because it is better in sunny enviroment and im working all day outside...

Good Work, Have you changed the audio codec?
This sounds so wonderfull!
But is this really 720p? the video has bad resolution...... maybe it's the video player.....video is smooth but resolution don't look well
does that mean better 3d also??

And you prefer amoled to slcd because you're outside loads? Swear I saw a test on Gizmodo or Engadget and amoled didn't stand a chance against slcd.

Hi tron,
but this is the video sample that you have recorded 1 months ago with OLD ROM... I remember it, 17 sec... what's up?
Thank you neighbor,also for improved the 720p and wifi drivers
video is good as a bolt
So when can we expect these improvements?
Great News ~!
Will you also update the rom will lastest flash 10.1 , cifs .... etc ~
This looks mighty nice, looking forward to this being mainstream in all desire roms.
I hope you will be releasing the driver source, and not just pushing out another sense rom.
Now all we need is to plug a decent microphone into the micro usb slot, since the audio quality is rubbish on any videos I have taken
Hello,
I was wondering if there was anyway to DLNA a video from HTC Watch to a computer/tv.
I know the Sensation can DLNA videos you record but how about with HTC Watch?
If it's possible can anyone give me advice? I'd be most grateful.
Thank you,
lilhugo
PS:
I found the file on my SD Card, but it was unable to read it due to DRM. Any other ideas to stream from phone to computer/tv?
Bump
Is no one interested in DLNA-ing from their phone to their computer/tv, but me?
me too !!
did U get a solution ?
I can't believe there's no answer for this. HTC Watch is great (with 5p weekends) but realistically I'd rather watch films on my 42" tv than on my phone when I'm at home!!
Come on people there must be a way to play through. Does a HDMI link work? I don't want to buy one only to find it doesn't.
Dear All!
I recently have faced a problem. I wanted to test some batteries and I wanted to put a video on my Nexus S or Atrix on auto-repeat...but I could not find one...
I use MoboPlayer, mVideo and the stock one (btw, anyone knows where can I access it's settings?)
Any suggestions will be highly appreciated!!

Pleeeease, somebody! Any info on this?
Hello. I love MX player. It supports a very wide range of file types and codecs. I have recommended this product to numerous people. For me, the premium upgrade is a bargain and I am happy to pay it.
Having said that..... there is one thing that I am struggling with. Does this player offer any type of video out capabilities?
In particular, I have a Dragon Touch A1X android tablet running 4.4 firmware. The MX player works great on this device. However, it does have a mini-HDMI port on it, and I would love to be able to cast from the tablet to my HD television set.
Can someone please educate me on what is the best way to accomplish this........ or if it is even possible at all?
Thanks in advance.

Mirroring is handled by the Android system. Casting, there's a pinned thread on this topic, you should read that.
