I am willing to invest as much time as is needed as well as research. It helps to have brilliant minds, such as yourself, as your disposal. Thank you for all your hard work. I am enjoying your Senseless ROM so far. (It has only been a few hours)... I am hoping to be able to contribute to the DEVs forum soon. Is ECLIPSE a good program for writing your own ROM or no?

Congrats. I came over from an Axim and a dumb phone to a Samsung Moment... But that didn't dim my love for Android, it just pissed me off enough to get an Epic, then an Epic Touch. (I'm a sucker for those beautiful screens!)

I hope you enjoy it! It's quite a phone. And believe me, I know the difference, coming from that Moment! I sold my Epic, but still have the Moment and fired it up last night... man that thing's a clunker in comparison!

Is it possible to turn wifi on automatically everytime CM7 reboots with airplane mode on?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] canspw:
I know this is a development question, but I only have access to this forum...

To Whitehawkx, I'm using your Weapon G2x v3.0 and Miui 1.10.21 and these roms are the best for G2x hands down!!

I love the Miui interface, but Weapon is rock solid stable. With Miui, I will have to switch between airplane mode every now and then to reestablish connection.

Also, with Miui it drains battery faster than Weapon. If I go to bed without charging, Miui will drain about 40% of the battery whereas Weapon will only drain about 10%.

Is there any way to port the rock solid stable-ness and power management of Weapon and drop it in Miui?

Thanks and keep up the great work!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jose makalolot:
Weapon is stock based.

MIUI is 2.3.4/5/7 based.

Used the Maps application

Noticed something. Its been a long time since I used this app. Anyhow, the app is acting strange. When I rotate to landscape, Maps will not rotate with landscape and stays in Portrait.

It wouldn't bother me so much but when GPS Driving is provided, it stays stuck in Portrait and navigation is displayed as Landscape.

The Potrait/Landscape isn't properly working.

I'm on CM 175 nightly.

Is anyone else having similar problem?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hiko36:

Anyone having issues with the phone losing data connection and the data connection not coming back without a reboot? I've tried putting it into airplane mode but that just gets stuck.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raze1000:
Hi all

Just thought i would share my findings.

I am using MX Video Player as my video player.

I use Mizzu Movies as the front end for it - it really is very very nice and will auto get information, reviews, trailers etc etc for movies.

To convert my Blu Ray mkv files, DVD rips or pretty much anything i use DVD Catalyst on Windows 7 PC

I use the asus transformer HQ settings and select partial border removal.

Using all the above results in very nice looking movies with flawless playback.

I travel abroad quite a lot and everyone who see's me using the Asus for movies on the plane is very interested in what i have.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcIdC0R3:
For Blu-rays I've found DVD Catalyst 4 to be inadequate because of sync issues. I've also read that by turning off Blu-ray Telecine will correct this issue but it doesn't. So, I had to look at other software to rip and convert my Blu-rays. Also DVD Catalyst 4 set my Kaspersky Antivirus Heuristic virus detection off and said it was performing in a way similar to a virus or trojan.

I've found that Aiseesoft Blu-ray Ripper works really well and is my favorite. It has video acceleration and will utilize you're AMD (app acceleration) or a NVidia video card with (Cuda technology). It's normally $39 but you can get it HERE for $23.40 with the coupon code 'SMRT-ADEK'. HERE is a guide as to what settings to use for the TF. It tends to make my videos a little less in size than Pavtube does. i.e., Aieesoft Blu-ray Ripper will create a file say 2.5gb in size while Pavtube is a little higher. Also, since I have an AMD/ATI video card it will accelerate the ripping process to nearly half the time as Pavtube due to the fact that Pavtube doesn't support AMD/ATI acceleration, just NVidia Cuda technology. Also, Aieesoft Blu-ray Ripper will automatically preserve forced subtitles while Pavtube you have to actually check ON a tick box for it to pick up forced subtitles. Also it has a video preview while ripping while Pavtube does not. Incidentally you can turn this feature on or off, whichever you prefer.

Another great software would be Pavtube Blu-ray Video Converter Ultimate which runs $65 but you can get it for $37.70 HERE with coupon code 'SOFT-K8TT'. It makes flawless videos for the TF using the XOOM settings. HERE is a guide on how. It has video acceleration just for NVidia video card. It will also let you select not only different subtitles but allows for 'Only allow forced subtitles'.

Incidentally, both rippers have built in AACS ripper technology and can even rip the new AACS-24 copy protection which is the newest copy protection format. So there is no need to also run AnyDVD HD in the background while you rip to be able to rip. A huge plus in my book.

I use either Dice Player or MX Video to play my movies in HW acceleration mode.

This is the Pavtube settings. Right click on the picture and 'Save As' to download a short single chapter MP4 file to test on your TF.

This is the Aieesoft settings. Right click on the picture and 'Save As' to download a short single chapter MP4 file to test on your TF.

cheers...

EDIT: Please read further into this thread as things have changed drastically. Thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GetLaid:
I use the extremely convenient VidsOpt script for reencoding and remuxing x264/MKV. I tried out some other ripping tools like DVD Catalyst and XviD4PSP but they were cumbersome and too heavy on my system (only 2.8GHz P4/1GB RAM). After this step, there is really no reason not to use the stock player since MP4 files can be HW decoded (video and audio). If I am watching something with subtitles or the occasional XviD I will use MX Video.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvdcatalyst:
What Sync issues are you referring to AcidCore? I am aware of audio sync issues if you play the created video files on a PC using Windows Media Player, but this is due to some codec-issues with WMP itself. This is also mentioned in numerous locations on my website. For device playback as well as playback using Quicktime or VLC, the files should play just fine.

As for the Kaspersky, it doesn't like it when an app is running the conversion as a separate process. I have tried to work with them, but it is easier for them to mark something than to actually unmark something. DVD Catalyst is clean.

As for the links you provided, those articles are loaded with affiliate-links, meaning that those articles are mainly written to lure people into a purchase so that the guy who wrote them gets about 50% of the purchase price for the sale.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcIdC0R3:
Actually, when I ripped the movie Wanted it played just fine on WMP but on both Dice and MX the audio was out of sync with the video. I felt like I was watching a dubbed movie or something. I tried three different settings with Catalyst and I got the same thing. Also when I ripped the movie Apocalypto which the whole movie is subtitled and Catalyst overwrote the subs with some kind of font that looked like it had some type of halo effect to it. I had to enable the Booster Pack 2 in order for it to pick up the subs at all. All other movies seemed OK though.

As for the links, I bought both Aieesoft Blu-ray Ripper and Pavtube at a 40% discount each which was a big plus in my book.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvdcatalyst:
Did you try the stock player?

The files dvdcat creates are optimized for hardware playback on the Tegra2. While MX and Dice can play a lot more video file types, their settings can get in the way of how the file plays. Using the stock player the videos should play just fine.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcIdC0R3:
I just tried playing it with the stock player and it's still out of sync.

My settings are:

Player Screen Size: 864x432

Video Quality: 2250kbps

Video Mode: 1 pass

Sound Quality: 160kbps

Audio Mode: stereo

Conversion Format: h264_xoom

Framerate: 30
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvdcatalyst:
What did you convert?

from Bluray using dvdcat's Bluray mode or using file-mode (just the m2ts file directly)

Besides the settings you mentioned, you also mentioned the telicine option. Are there any other settings in "Global" that you enabled?

Try resetting DVD Catalyst to its defaults:

* Make sure DVD Catalyst is not running

* Click on "START" > "RUN" (or hold down the windows-key on your keyboard and tap the "R" key)

* In the run dialog, type in:

%appdata%

and click OK

*delete the "DVD Catalyst 4" folder

After that, start dvdcat, and if you want to convert Bluray (icw AnyDVD HD or something similar), enable power user, and enable the checkmark in the Bluray tab in Global Settings.

Then just select your profile, and leave the rest of the settings as they are.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raze1000:
so far i have tried about 5 different methods to convert to mp4 from mkv etc

I have used dvdcat to convert about 10 movies so far and have not run into sync problems.

I have left most things on default so dont find it cumbersome at all, in fact I found it a lot easier to use than most others, i do have a quadcore 4gb windows 7 64bit system though so runs pretty fast. I use eset nod32 smart security which is a superior product to kaspersky without false positives.

I will also play around with more options in time.

Nice to see some alternative methods here though which I will also try.

Any other methods guys?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcIdC0R3:
Yeah, it was the first Blu-ray that I tried to transcode. Let me try your recommendation and see what I come up with. Thanks.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcIdC0R3:
I have to say that by taking your advice and setting things back to default that the Blu-ray rip came out perfect. It even came out smaller in size and the cropping was perfect. While most of my movies play in letterbox (black bars above and below the picture) that after ripping with DVD Catalyst and then playing in MX Video that I had no letterboxing. It played full screen. Stock video player and Dice Player both still played it in letterbox. The video setting was defaulted to 1280x720 and the video formatted out to 1280x544. There was no sync issues any more. Time to rip the movie Wanted using Aieesoft Blu-ray Ripper took a little over 2 hours and the time it took DVD Catalyst to rip the same movie was just over 40 minutes. Impressive to say the least. :D

I just changed my dvdcat setup to just removing black bars from the video file instead of remove partial borders and quality is now better.

Removing partial borders lowered the resolution to 1072 x 512
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvdcatalyst:
I always use "remove from file" (the default) myself. The other ones cut off part of the video to get more screenfill. If you use a video player other than the stock, you can usually zoom the video anyway if you want full-screen.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcIdC0R3:
I've been re-transcoding my movies using DVD Cat and while the movie Underworld "Evolution" ripped perfectly using default settings Underworld did not. It's defaulted to just removing the black bars but it shoved the video to the left and it was severely cut off on the left. I looked all through the settings and couldn't find anything to fix this. Although when I went to 'Preview' the setting was defaulted to 1.33:1 and the first little picture with the borders was selected. I had to put it down to 1.35:1 movie default and choose the second little picture without the borders. Strange; as it made it 1280x405, so it was constrained but it fit and had no borders on the TF.

Needless to say, DVD Cat is going to take some trial and error to figure it all out.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvdcatalyst:
Underworld is a bit tricky because it is so dark.

In Global > Borders, you can increase the scan-point count, which should eliminate the issue you experienced. It is quite rare, but its tied to the way DVD Cat actually detects borders on movies. Rather than using fixed values, it takes screenshots of the movie at 5 (default) points, and then looks for the actual borders.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcIdC0R3:
I remember seeing that. It's set at 5 right now. Is that a setting under the borders tab that's selectable or is it always on? I'm at work so I can't look at the software at the moment.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvdcatalyst:
its defaulted at 5, but you can change it to something like 7 or 8.

I've only ran into the issue 3 times.

twice with episodes of 24, where the shots were taken during the time-display part, and Underworld 1
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcIdC0R3:
So what setting do you recommend; 7 or 8? I guess I'll just have to tinker with it when I get home. What is your final file dimmensions on Underworld 1 after transcoding with DVD Cat?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvdcatalyst:
6 should be fine, or you can do the cropping manual in the preview.

Its been a while since I converted Underworld 1, and that was only from DVD, so I can't give you a number on that, sorry.

I could change the default in dvdcat for the scan-count, but like I said, I had it 3 times out of at least 10.000 different conversions, so I didn't really see the need to increase the default.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcIdC0R3:
It's strange that the same thing would occure with both DVD and Blu-ray.

EDIT: I appreciate all the help you've given me. I had to set my 'Border-Detection Scan' all the way up to 9 for it to correctly crop out the borders on Underworld 1 (Blu-ray). After doing so it took it which is encoded in 1.35:1 and created my transcoded movie with the dimensions of 1280x544 which ran beautifully on the TF.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvdcatalyst:
You are welcome,

I'm glad you got it going.

While it doesn't hurt to leave it at 9, the issue is quite rare, so you might want to switch it back to something a little less to speed the scan-part up a bit.

On a side-note, the TF supposedly is capable of 1080 output through HDMI.

While many people say that the tegra2 sucks at 1080 playback, you can create 1080 video files with dvdcat that will play perfectly fine on the TF. I don't have a TF myself, but on my Xoom (3G), I managed to play up to 20Mbps at 1080 resolution. Using a tegra2 HQ2 1080 profile, I played a 14GB mp4 on it.

for a sample video, just tap this link on your TF:

http://www.tools4movies.com/xoom/1080p/pussinboots-tlr1_h1080p.mp4

make sure you play it using the stock video player though.

for a sampleclip of 1080 @ 20Mbps/160Kbps:

http://www.tools4movies.com/xoom/1080p/1080_xoom_20mbps_160kbps.zip

Unless you actually would use 1080, maybe by using the files for something else like a hd media player or something, I would recommend sticking to 720p though.

I've been using the latest nightly build of handbrake and it's pretty awesome.

https://build.handbrake.fr/

It auto detects the main Blu-Ray title (albeit slowly). It has audio boast. I've got a 2500K and I can whip through a Blu-Ray in < 1 hour.

Important settings:

Video: Framerate 23.976, RF=21

Audio: AAC 2 Channel, 160kbps, DRC=1, Gain=6

Reference Frames 3

Max B-Frames 2

+CABAC

-8x8 Transform

-Weighted P-Frames

-Pyramidal B-Frames

Deblock -2:-1

Getting enabling CABAC is probably the most important to crunch space, unfortunately, it's also the thing that drags down the tablet.

It plays pretty well is MX & Mobo Player (video shudder on panning). Flawless in Dice.
