It really differs from the input file. Some work and some dont work in the resulting output file. The settings for iPhone and iPod are ok.
[G1 General] MMTest97:
Ok, I've been doing this for a while w/ no negative feedback from the device. I too had the issues w/ either video show as blank/green blocks with no audio or vice versa no audio w/ video just fine. After some research here's what I found. Hope it helps.

Video:

AVC .264 codec for the video (this is harware accelerated and thus can get a better respons from the device)

Basline Profile (this is needed due to our devices not having all the bells and whistles h.264 is capable of)

You want the Profile no higher then level 3.1

CABAC (specific to h.264) is a NO

Reference Frames: 1 (only 1)

Bitrate (Variable): 1000 Kbps

Framerate: Constant @ 23.97 (for most videos this is how they were originally recorded, If you increase this there is more that has to be don during encoding and may slow it down)

For those of you that know how to setup your encoder programs using a manual script for the h.264 settings, you can use the following for your script (it's what works for me)

cabac=0 / ref=1 / deblock=1:0:0 / analyse=0x1:0x111 / me=hex / subme=6 / psy_rd=1.0:0.0 / mixed_ref=0 / me_range=16 / chroma_me=1 / trellis=0 / 8x8dct=0 / cqm=0 / deadzone=21,11 / chroma_qp_offset=-2 / threads=3 / nr=0 / decimate=1 / mbaff=0 / bframes=0 / keyint=250 / keyint_min=25 / scenecut=40(pre) / rc=2pass / bitrate=1000 / ratetol=1.0 / qcomp=0.60 / qpmin=10 / qpmax=51 / qpstep=4 / cplxblur=20.0 / qblur=0.5 / vbv_maxrate=10000 / vbv_bufsize=10000 / ip_ratio=1.40 / aq=1:1.00 / cabac=0 / ref=1 / deblock=1:0:0 / analyse=0x1:0x111 / me=hex / subme=6 / psy_rd=1.0:0.0 / mixed_ref=0 / me_range=16 / chroma_me=1 / trellis=0 / 8x8dct=0 / cqm=0 / deadzone=21,11 / chroma_qp_offset=-2 / threads=3 / nr=0 / decimate=1 / mbaff=0 / bframes=0 / keyint=250 / keyint_min=25 / scenecut=40(pre) / rc=2pass / bitrate=1000 / ratetol=1.0 / qcomp=0.60 / qpmin=10 / qpmax=51 / qpstep=4 / cplxblur=20.0 / qblur=0.5 / vbv_maxrate=10000 / vbv_bufsize=10000 / ip_ratio=1.40 / aq=1:1.00

As for Audio:

Nero AAC works the best

Profile: AAC-LC

CBR: 160kbps

Sample Rate: 48khz works fine (Personally, I don't change the audio rate at all)

Granted my average files are around 190MB per 30 minutes, but it looks and sounds amazing. Better then I was ever able to accomplish with my Dash. :D
[G1 General] joshtheitguy:
I ripped The Boondock Saints and Fight Club with no issues though when I tried to rip Benders Big Score and The Beast with a Billion Backs they came out blocky, the audio was off and playing slow.

I'm using the HandbrakeCLI for linux due to the fact that the GUI version won't let you crop or adjust the aspect ratio

here is what I tried and worked for Boondock Saints and Fight Club:

HandBrakeCLI -i "/home/josh/.wine/drive_c/FIGHTCLB" -t 1 -c 1-25 -o "/home/josh/.wine/drive_c/FIGHTCLB/fight_club.mp4" -f mp4 -w 480 --deinterlace="slow" -e ffmpeg -b 512 -a 1 -E faac -B 160 -R 44.1 -6 stereo -D 1 -v
[G1 General] xipher_zero:
Good settings for handbrake

I have integrated MMTest97's x264 encoder options into the HandbrakeCLI command. It works like a charm and the videos look Great! here is the full command with scaling to the G1's exact screen res:

HandBrakeCLI -i "Path/To/Source/Video" -t 1 -c 1-25 -o "Path/To/Destination/Video" -f mp4 -w 480 -l 320 --deinterlace="slow" -e x264 -x cabac=0:deblock=1,0:analyse=0x1,0x111:bitrate=416:psy_rd=1.0,0.0:chroma_me=1:chroma_qp_offset=-2:threads=3:nr=0:keyint=250:keyint_min=25:scenecut=40:bitrate=416:ratetol=1.0:qcomp=0.60:qpmin=10:qpmax=51:qpstep=4:cplxblur=20.0:qblur=0.5 -a 1 -E faac -B 96 -R 44.1 -6 stereo -D 1 -v

Also here is the command for an aspect retained video:

HandBrakeCLI -i "Path/To/Source/Video" -t 1 -c 1-25 -o "Path/To/Destination/Video" -f mp4 -w 480 --deinterlace="slow" -e x264 -x cabac=0:deblock=1,0:analyse=0x1,0x111:bitrate=416:psy_rd=1.0,0.0:chroma_me=1:chroma_qp_offset=-2:threads=3:nr=0:keyint=250:keyint_min=25:scenecut=40:bitrate=416:ratetol=1.0:qcomp=0.60:qpmin=10:qpmax=51:qpstep=4:cplxblur=20.0:qblur=0.5 -a 1 -E faac -B 96 -R 44.1 -6 stereo -D 1 -v

Alternatively if you are lazy like me you can set up a profile in HandBrakeGUI that uses these x264 options for batch encoding!

Don't know if this helps anyone, but it is working great for me! Thanks for the help in getting this figured out, I've been at it for over a week now!

Cheers,

Xipher
[G1 General] lingols:
use the ipod/iphone setting on SUPER.. it works fine.
[G1 General] unrafa:
stats555: Selecting Deinterlace: Slower, (i supose slower is best quality) did the trick for me, now i see the videos.

i also set resolution to h264 480 x 272.
[G1 General] ranger7424:
File Size

So far i have ripped 3 movies usually about an hour and a half to hours in length. I have only seen an out put size in the 500meg range. Is there anyway to get these smaller?
[G1 General] xipher_zero:
Size wise that's probably about right. You can reduce the total size of the files by reducing the video and audio bitrates. Doing this will encode the videos with less information reducing the overall size, but also reducing the quality as well. I would recommend encoding small videos at different bitrates until you find the balance that works for you.

Cheers,

Xipher

[G1 General] wazz999:
Hi all,

Just adding my 2 cents, just converted a 750mb dvd rip into a 400mb mp4 using the iphone profile with a little program called Xvid4psp (strange name, I know...:), but it encodes to many more formats, for many platforms.) Its a fantastic piece of work, been using it since ver 3. The video plays flawlessly on my g1.

Click here to go to the website.

You can set the bitrate, frame size, preferred output size, just about anything you could possibly want. Plus, it has converted literally everything I have thrown at it.

Enjoy.
[G1 General] widto08:
I've been using this...

[G1 General] ZilverZurfarn:
My fav is Mediacoder iPod(!) Edition - http://mediacoder.sourceforge.net/ - Set to encode to iPhone/iPod Touch, it generates perfect files (reencoding AVI to mp4). Supports lots&lots of input formats.

[G1 General] jgu71424:
IDK

ok do i just select everything inside the VIDEO_TS and drag them onto SUPER then click ENCODE???:confused:
[G1 General] ZilverZurfarn:
May I suggest www.videohelp.com for all your video encoding issues? Great site with tutorials and tools for almost everything video related. No special G1 section, but so far, it seems to me that all that applies to iPhone video also applies to HTC Dream video.

(...and SUPER is one of the worst (when it comes to quality) video encoders I've ever tried...)

/Mats
[G1 General] DynaMight:
My suggestion is the very impressive IpodME. http://nodadev.wordpress.com/pc-projects/ipodme/ I've converted loads for the G1 and its perfect. It simply works, no installing, no messing, it just works.
[G1 General] FiFTYSiX:
I have a mixed greens of video being converted using your settings... I will let you know tomorrow, but I have tried all of those all-in-ones and i get ghosting, yellow ghosting, dup frames, ghost frames, interlaced images etc... All those aio's suck ass its about time i dusted off tmp! Thanks for motivating me lol
[G1 General] AroundTheWorld:
I'm using wondershare to convert my videos, but when I load them on my sdcard to play o my G1, i get a green screen. The audio is working just fine, but not the video. Wondershare says that its made for the G1 (or GPhone) but it isnt. aughh...

Edit: I got the video to work, but it's not synced with the video. It would be playing about 1 or 2 seconds ahead of the video, any way to fix this? Thanks.
[G1 General] widto08:
These are the settings I use and have not had a single issue with them, everything works great.
[G1 General] AroundTheWorld:
Thanks alot, I'm trying it right now, just have to wait for it to convert.
[G1 General] AroundTheWorld:
It doesnt work, the settings synced the audio and video, but it no longer plays on the G1, am I doing something wrong? The settings are the exact same as the ones on your screenshot.
[G1 General] widto08:
How are you playing the converted videos? Market app or stock player? I've tried everyone of the market players and each one of the them have different problems playing video's. For me the stock player works best.

To use the stock player to play a video use one of the file managers from the market like Discover, Astro, etc..., navigate to where the file is on your sdcard and just click it, the stock player will automatically start playing the vid.
[G1 General] AroundTheWorld:
I've tried using both market apps and stock players, and neither of them would play it.

Video Encoding Mp4

I know the G1 takes Mp4 with H.264 or H.263 but When I used the youtube down loader the video was pretty good quality and I viewed the codes in a program and used same ones for a video I converted to mp4 to place on my phone, only problem is the file even after converting and lower vidp size and les bits and such for video and audio, the file was still pretty big size (36-40) mb and theres lot of videos I want..the youtube one is only 16 mb!

im using super video converter which settings can help me make video smaller size with it still decent quality

http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/3817/herex.jpg
[G1 General] daveid:
Yeah, for real, drop those bitrates down. My TV encodes for my phone are:

Video - 585

Audio - 64

this provides me with a 20 minute show that takes up ~80MB. Not sure the length of the clip you are encoding, but do the math.

However, just so you know, compressing an already lossy compressed file (such as the avi you have) to another lossy format, you are going to have much less quality than if you took the original source (in my situation I use either DVD's ripped myself, or video recorded on my tv tuner) straight to AVC/AAC.
[G1 General] tanner2007:
What video size do you use?
[G1 General] daveid:
I am encoding 4x3 television shows so I make the height fit the screen using 432x320.
[G1 General] tanner2007:
Is the quality ok on yours? or is it all Skippy?
[G1 General] daveid:
Doesn't skip at all, it would help to know what your source files are.

Looking at your settings window again, I see you are encoding it at 29.97 FPS, however if your source file is a DVD rip that has been properly Telecined (if film content - the majority are) it would have a framerate of 24FPS (23.976). This could cause your skipping.

I suggest you download a program called GSPOT to identify the properties of the video you are converting. Also, remember what I said about compressing an already compressed video, your may not be happy with the results.
[G1 General] tanner2007:
I use gspot...but I mainly trying to do it to music videos
[G1 General] daveid:
Make sure you are matching the video framerate of your source. If you would like to send me a clip I can try converting it for you and send it back, if it works I can share my settings (I don't use Super though, I use MeGui - but I could probably walk you through it). If you want to go this route, shoot me a PM or post a link (as long as it is not copy protected) to a file you are trying to compress.
[G1 General] tanner2007:
Ok ill send you PM in day or two once i Have time to do the video editing :D
[G1 General] lchanmanl:
Another option is to use Handbrake
[G1 General] ZilverZurfarn:
I'd say the issue is not so much what tool to use (there are many!) but what settings to use. Most freeware video converters use the same libraries to do their tricks. The main differences are what settings the UI expose to the user. Simply pointing to a piece of software is about as useful as saying "Take the bus!" to someone asking for the way to Picadilly Circus.

/Mats
[G1 General] lchanmanl:
true, the UI of Super is very....busy. It has too many things cramped together. Handbrake is more user friendly for users that don't use/understand the command line.
[G1 General] bastage:
I Will Firmly second that.. I Tries the super method 1st & The file output with the settings above were ridiculous.. After 4 of 5 methods using different applications I Came across the post.. Downloaded installed & It is Awesome.. Simple, user friendly, & The video looks just as good without the choppiness associated with larger files.. Took a 700mb avi that the super method turned into 1.63gb & dropped it down to 470mb.. Quality is more then acceptable & I Can get a crap ton more movies per micro sdhc.. also I used the ipod specific version & all default settings.. it was a simple matter of drag & drop to add my media & then 1 click to encode..
[G1 General] hairpin:
Just a note, I found this post after all of my trans-coded videos were showing up as the green block with no audio.

I tried Super, but it was wayyyy too slow to encode.

I tried HandBrake (the app I had originally used that produced the green blocks) but I matched the settings from this tut to the best of my ability.

The result was something that actually looked and sounded great!

(I think the out-of-bounds aspect ratio and high audio sample rate caused the green block and no-audio)

Thanks for the tutorial, hope this helps anyone still running into the green block.
[G1 General] projection:

Linux & Best quality

Hey guys i want to share with you the command to encode all your videos with the highest quality!

20 minutes of video is about 30mb with this, and this also encodes subtitles from an mkv source.

mencoder video.mkv -o output.mp4 -of lavf -lavfopts format=mp4 -ss 1 -vf pp=ci,scale=480:270,expand=480:272,harddup -ovc x264 -x264encopts crf=30.0:nocabac:level_idc=30:global_header:threads=2 -ofps 30000/1001 -oac faac -faacopts mpeg=4:object=2:br=128:raw -channels 2 -srate 44100 -af volnorm -slang eng,dut,und -font ~/myriadwebpro-condensed.ttf -subfont-text-scale 3.2

replace ~/myriadwebpro-condensed.ttf with the location to the font you'd like to use for subtitles. and replace -slang eng,dut,und to the language it needs to select from the source. (if eng is not found, use dut, otherwise use und(undefined))

Hopefully this is to some use for you guys, right now im downloading and directly encoding everything to this format and it runs great on the G1!
[G1 General] davidemartindale:
By FAR the simplest to use... Really, converting 5 mins after clicking DynaMight's link. No problems or settings to mess with, it just does its job and does it well.
[G1 General] Karolis:
I have used Avidemux with PSP preset and it didn't work. I could get the audio but not the video. So I googled-up official ubuntu documentation regarding that question and it worked like a charm! Here you go: Encoding Video for the Android Phone Using AVI demux (GUI)
[G1 General] Burag:
Thanks for sharing it :p
[G1 General] azrash:
just in case anyone is still interested in encoding, IMO the best way to do this is using MEGUI's G1 preset that is built in. that is all you need, works flawlessly for me :D

Hi everyone,

just now the Global Version of MIUI 13 with Android 12 have been released, there's also the version from Xiaomi.eu available.

I have been following the development a bit and i have a few questions being a rooted user.

- Obviously getting root again shouldn't be a problem with the latest releases of magisk which is flashed via fastboot (boot.img)

- TWRP is not yet able to access encrypted partition on android 12, thus the rom has to be installed via fastboot. Where else could this lead be a shortcoming? Are there alternatives?

I just don't want it to feel like a mistake to upgrade early. So i am looking for some experiences from other users.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] lsander:
Root will be no problem.

About encryption use adb sideload, fastboot, sd card, usb otg. Whatever you like.

Or wipe data and foash dfe zip. Restart to rom, restart recovery and data will be decrypted. Then flash rom you like from internal. But there is again problem where to put dfe.

just buy some chippest sd card for this just for flashing roms and your problem will be solved forever

[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] AmmarHaseeb:
Don't even bother flashing it or updating to it, it's infested with bugs and there are no performance or battery life improvements since it's just the initial release.

[Oppo A5s (AX5s)] Jhon Orlan:
I have a phone which is Oppo A5s, where my cousin change the password and forgot it, so I tried to search how to format it, and after several days of searching I found SP Flash tool, Miracle Box and other Software like DrFone etch, but only SP FLASH TOOL has progressed, so I watch videos on youtube and download compatible ROM then I stuck on a problem (enabled-verified-boot opporeserve2).

So I found a youtube video that needed an SGPT file, but since there was nothing SGPT file in extracted OFP, I search again how to generate it, then Youtuber said that I just need to use the WWW MTK tool and do READBACK and Format it on Format Tab in SP FLASH TOOL, which is the cause of my problem now. So as of now my Phone doesn't open, so when I try to connect it via USB it says - Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed). hope there is someone who can help me with my problem, I will really really appreciate it. Thank you in Advance.
[Oppo A5s (AX5s)] xXx yYy:
If USB debugging is enabled on your device and suitable correct ADB driver is installed on your PC, then your PC should recognize your Android device as an ADB device:

NOTE: Usually, the ADB entry will show under the heading "ADB Interface", or "Android Phone" (or similar), but sometimes it will show under the manufacturer name instead (e.g. "Samsung", "HTC", etc).
[Oppo A5s (AX5s)] Jhon Orlan:
But ADB Interface is not showing even I installed ADB driver or Universal ADB Drivers not showing at all. It's just saying "Unknown SB Device".
[Oppo A5s (AX5s)] ZG_DEV:
Dude

Boot up to META MODE ( vol down + connect your pc) and flash the stock rom (with all partitions)

And when u flash any rom / file, just use mct mtk bypass , choose chipset ( MT6765) and click bypass

Once it succeeds, flash your rom 👍
[Oppo A5s (AX5s)] ZG_DEV:
Or just skip bypassing if there is no error flashing in sp flash tool 🙂
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] th1nm1nt:
My phone went swimming late August (house flooded...so lots of expensive stuff did). Since then, activating the camera gets me an error stating "Unable to initialize camera. Failed to set up the camera device.". The rest of the device works at 100%, but on that dreadful morning, there was a lot of water coming out from behind the back camera lens and light used for the flash.

I was wondering if there is a way to initiate the front camera, and use that as the primary. I cannot find a way to use this outside of Video calls (which in the USA, so never used it). I do desire a camera on this device, so was wondering if I just follow through with getting the HD, or is there a way to test (not even sure the front one works) the other camera.

Thanks guys!

Okay, let me preface this with I feel like I am a moron. I am a first time poster here. I have been very involved over at pdaphonehome and I usually try to just stay out of the way of the brains on this forum. However, everytime I download a custom rom, I keep getting an error when I try to extract specifically the RUU_signed.nbh file? Please help me learn the error of my ways. Also, I will say that I have been searching this out and came across nbhextract and such, but that seems to be if I want to extract the individual parts from the nbh. I dont want to do this. My problem is that when I download a rom, everything extracts from the rar except the signed.nbh which always says it is broken? I have been using winzip and also 7zip.
