[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] muzzy996:
I think you may want to look at encoding settings.

Saw your post and it intrigued me because normally I don't use MKV files but given the fact that I sometimes watch my rips in loud areas I thought that it might be useful to have subtitles along with my rips.

So I did a little experiment taking a rip of my Cars 2 bluray that I did for my GT in MP4 format that already played well on the tab and applying an SRT to it using MKVMerge. The resulting MKV file plays well in Dice player with subtitles showing up just fine.

What settings do you use in handbrake?

For me I'm using max width of 1280 (720p), no video filters, AAC audio with a bitrate of 160, and advanced settings tab settings of 3 reference frames, 0 b-frames, CABAC off, 8x8 tranform off, p-frames off, psychovisual off and all other settings to the right at defaults.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] sjdean:
Im using a max height of 576 and strict anamorphic (so actual width is never more than 720 but displayh size is max 1024), no cropping, no filters, x264, 160 bitrate aac audio. Im using Default settings as per the Regular > Normal profile, but bumped reference and max b frames to 3, and subpixel me & mode detection to seven.

Encode the same video, one in an MP4 container and one in MKV results in only the MKV stuttering. Same settings for both though.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] sjdean:
Just tried that MKVMerge to Mux the MP4 to MKV and the resultant file still stutters using the stock video player app.

Dice however works flawlessly!:) course Im annoyed that I have to fork out £3.50 for an app that works when it should really be part of Android.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] songmeesay:
The stock player for the 10.1 doesn't support mkv (not listed as a supoprted container in the specs) that's why you get the stutter. Dice is the best and well worth your purchase. Bs player is free and is almost as good as dice but it has problems seeking during playback on mkv 's.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] sjdean:
Thanks songmeesay - best answer I've heard. I like technical limitations like that. It's a finite answer!

So MP4 is a preferred choice on the Tab plus it handles anamorphic videos.

Do you guys have any knowledge of the Galaxy S and why that doesn't handle Anamorphic videos correctly?

Im still guessing my three choices are:

Convert to MKV Anamorphic- smaller files but need to use Dice

Convert to MP4 Anamorphic- smaller files, plays well on Tab, but will need Dice on Galaxy S

Convert to MP4 non anamorphic- larger files, but larger scope for support on the Tab, S and will of course play back in Dice...

Tricky decision. What would you guys go with?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] xw227751:
How to Ideal way to convert MKV files to MP4 format ?

MKV to MP4 Converter is a professional conversion program with powerful functions & friendly interface. It not only can convert mkv files to mp4 format with a few clicks, but also supports converting to MPG, MPEG, MPEG2, SWF, FLV, VOB, MOD, MP4, H.264, M4V, AVI, WMV, 3GP, 3GPP, MOV, DivX, XviD, Quciktime Video, & extracting M4A, MP3, AC3, AAC, WMA, WAV, OGG from videos.

You can try this function is very powerful MKV to MP4 Converter software, there are those functions that you say, you can learn from it and see that you have no help.

More useful software introduction, please visit the following URL:

mkvtomp4 .com
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Serpentene:
.mkv container should only be used for DTS audio encodes.

Else you better off with mp4 and h.263 .xvid for compatibility reasons.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cignu:
Hei everyone. Here's my question: i'm italian and since the SGN won't be launched here until the firs week of december, i'd like to buy it in germany (now already available). BUT, if i buy the SGN in germany, will I have an operating system in italian, yet OPTIMIZED for the german language? Because I want that beautiful voice recognition to work like a charm ..

what do you think?

Danke!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poisike:
Where in Germany it is already available?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AllGamer:
in android you change the language in settings language, and everything in the UI uses the language chosen

it's 1 OS, for every body

it just depends if it has your local language or not
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cignu:
Sorry I just finished working. It's amazon.de, releasing in december 1st or 3rd..

can't wait guys, can't wait.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qwer23:
Nowhere, but dispatch should start at November 24th. I pre-ordered my GN by Home of Hardware for example.

@OP: As AllGamer already said, if you change the system language, every aspect of the UI is changed, including voice recognition. I tried this myself when I tested iris because it only understood me correctly when I changed system language to English.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] error666:
Does anyone know how to install CWM on stock kj6? I don't want to use the custom kernel. Tried copying the recovery and update.zip but no go. Getting the signature error. Not sure what to try next.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cnote74:
Don't think you can have clockwork mod without a modded kernel on gingerbread.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Exodian:
Krylons method was for froyo. Your gonna have to go with the modded kernel to get cwm.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:
any reason why you dont want the rooted+cwm kernel from dr honk?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] error666:
It's not kj6.

Also, my last attempt to use one of these kernels wasn't very successful. Had a couple of little glitches here and there and it drove me nuts.

Now the phone works perfectly on a rooted stock kj6 with junk removed, so I don't feel like risking it, especially not having CWM to backup the stock config.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jb0ne:
+1

I am also on stock Gingerbread, rooted, and happy with it. I'd like to install CWM *before* I start mucking about with my ROMs. ROM Manager claims to support it, but it didn't list my phone in its detected devices and then I saw here that one shouldn't use it anyway so I uninstalled it.

So what's the easiest/noobiest way to install CWM on my T-mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4g 2.3.6 rooted?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] scoop_dtx:
Heindall.... With the the kj6 kernel in the development forum.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] chris31jct:
How about you develop a new kernel? All we got is drhonks kj1 and bhundven kj6, both customs... Wait... How you plan to get cwm if you dont "custom" a kernel? Interesting, huh?

You don't need cwm to have an easy way of fixing roms if anything goes wrong, theres always odin and heimdall.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
Man you're an arrogant dude. People ask for some help and you tell them to dev a new kernel! Put you're money where your mouth is.

As for the OP I think you get the idea. It's either custom or no go.

Hi, i've a Vodafone IT version of Galaxy tab. When i use tab with WIND sim card 3g & call work well, but when i use tab with other sim i get "No sim inserted" warning.

I'v tried to change firmware version but the problem remains :(

Can anyone help me?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markdj57:
I have the latest stock firmware from samfirmware and cfroot for the sgs2 and for the first time I have needed to use the alarm.

After setting alarm in the clock app, a little message comes up saying alarm is set for SOMANY hours and minutes ahead, but the alarm never goes off. I have now tried this many many times, changing the sound to a default one, checking the alarm volume, trying single alarms and repeating alarms but nothing works.

The alarm icon is displayed beside time but nothinf happens.

I has a look in the titanium apps list and noticed that there are 2 clock.apk s v.1.0 is this normal?

I used TuneIn Radio Pro this morning as an alarm and it worked fine.

I do not have any task killers or root apps apart from titanium.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nyssa1104:
I myself dont use the advance settings Snooze or smart alarm, just standard be it to repete or once, weekly, the alarm has always gone off.

Try testing the alarm tone before you save its profile event.

Got to compare the sound quality on my old Captivate with Voodoo Sound against my new Skyrocket last night, and the Captivate blew it away.

The sound quality on the Skyrocket really is not that good. We need a Voodoo Sound type app to harness the potential in this device (if in fact there is potential...).

I'd be happy to donate to any devs who pick this up. :cool:

In the meantime, does anyone know of any good apps on the market that will dramatically improve sound quality?

Do you think we can manage to integrate Sense into it as well? I have no idea about how the Sense manages stuff.. :)

Also, need to see kernel-side differences as well if there are any..

I can also help with something I guess - I am not so prune to download 7GB of Source code though :)
[Desire Android Development] Chaosz-X:
As far as I know, Sense is very deeply integrated into the OS, because else there would be a possibility for people to get it running on AOSP ROMs. So I think it will be really difficult to get Sense running on ICS (or impossible, dare I say).

Kernel-related: yeah, this is something I'm not sure about. I don't know if the kernel which gets built from the source will run, or else we'll need to try a GingerBread Kernel running with ICS.

That is my only concern actually, but as time passes by, we will learn more!

Well, that's what's bugging me...

It's either a file which is simply broken, which will be pretty difficult to find (logcat might help us), or it is because we tried to get it running with some HTC-specific files, which may be incompatible... zFreak of the Desire HD development thinks it is a problem in an EGL lib, and he is trying to fix it at the moment.

There is also a libEGL.so in /system/lib/, did you also replace that one? (Or place it there if there isn't any older version)

Oh, and when you're inserting files into a ZIP: be sure to set Compression: to None (or Store, as it is called in WinRAR). Compression could cause the ZIP to break when it is meant for flashing ;)

[Desire Android Development] Chaosz-X:
Currently, the ZIP needs the following modifications:

-New /egl/ folder has to be put in /system/lib/ (removing the old one, if there was any there)

-libEGL.so which was posted on the previous page has to be put into /system/lib/

-A kernel has to be flashed after you have flashed the ZIP (try every kernel out there ;p although I think Portatile has the most chance of succeeding)

gimme a few minutes, ill be flashing soon
