How Terminator Should have Ended.x264.mp4 (37.71 MB)

&

How Transformer 2 Should have Ended.x264.mp4 (47.66 MB)

Both played well in WMP. Couldn't really see any difference in quality.

New Moon.x264.mp4 (35.16 MB)

Stuttered badly in WMP.

Up.x264.mp4 (37.94 MB)

Plays, but a little out of sync. Otherwise looks good.

All of them really struggled in Core Player. Very stuttery. That could be my settings.

Honestly though, I'm guessing you keep doing animations/trailers as they're the only HD sources you can find? Clips that keep going to black screens every second or so are very had to study when looking for quality.

Maybe somebody else could take a look too?
[HD2 General] kenkiller:
Yeah....I have other HD media as well, will try to see if there's anything I can do. Have to keep a balance between size and uploading time. Maybe you can suggest a decent source? (Not a whole movie of course) But so far only the New Moon trailer has lots of fad to black screens iirc.

But it's really strange. They have differing playback qualities? All 4 of them are encoded using the exact same specs. Only differing issues is their resolution and and framerates are taken from the original source, and even so it's pretty close, all around 23.9**. Resolution wise the New Moon Trailer has the lowest res, yet it's stutters? :(

I would expect Coreplayer to stutter badly. I'm encoding for the built in player's hardware acceleration, not Coreplayer's software decoding. :)

edit : Ah...one thing i've noticed. Both the videos that stuttered slightly have 48khz, while the other 2 have 44khz. Not sure if that's a prob.

Can convert videos to MP4 (H.264). Also it has lot of option to play around to get max video quality and size. Its free open source converter.

Have a look Here :)
[HD2 General] tictac0566:
A late input from my side:

For great video conversion, I am still using VisualHub on my Mac, and even though development was discontinued, the program runs nicely also under Snow Leopard. I am using the standard settings, converting to MP4, and if I want to include subtitles, this can be done through enforcing the encoding using QuickTime.

The movies play flawlessly with both on-board players, CorePlayer does not show any better image or sound quality that I could notice at all.
[HD2 General] kenkiller:
Guys, what are the encoding specs to use so that the videos show up in the Photos and Videos tab? I have clips that play fine, but when I try to access them through Albums in the above tab, they don't show up at all.

HD2 video lag :/

Hey people!

I have been browsing through this blog or whatever and i have seen so many dif. settings for video, but that's not the case here. I am using Xvid4PSP program, and i am trying to convert some music videos and films for my HD2, but everytime i convert a music video, there is a lag on my HD2. I don't know what am i doing wrong really. I am trying to set as some downloaded samples from here are, but i can't entirely (i am assuming...) and it doesn't help if i reduce bitrate or increase. The video just laggs! Please, help me with this issue,cause i would really like to use my HD2 for a video playback and not just for watching lag :/ The movie sample works great, my converted videos just don't.

Specs of converting:

format: mp4

codec: x264

encoding mode: 3-pass bitrate (or 2 -pass, doesn't really matter)

bitrate: 1800

avc profile: main profile

avc level: unrestricted

CABAC: ON, and all other are checked too

audio codec: AAC

encoding mode: abr

aac profile: aac-lc

bitrate: 120

samplerate: 41000

resolution: 800x496

framerate: 29.970

That is it i beilive...
[HD2 General] [★]:
I use mediacoder for all my converting, but I haven't tried it for the LEO yet as Im not allowed to open it till christams day :D but that will be my preffered encooder as it has loads of codecs and containers to choose from as well as frame size and bit rate ect..

But if your interested pocketnowvideo released a video 3 days ago recomending a program called DVD catalyst, and it does support the LEO, I haven't tried it yet as it costs 10$ but I may give the free demo a try nearer the time.

Heres the video if your interested

I know that they're quite trustworthy so you might wanna give DVD Catalyst's preset a try.

Beautifully Smooth Video.

I use Handbrake to create the Video using the following settings:-

MPEG-4 (FFmpeg) Video Codec

MP4 Container

Size at 720 x 480 (can't get 800 x 480 even with Aspect Ratio), but results are superb.

When adding to the HD2 device, a message pops up warning not supported etc. Simply ignore this and copy to device.

Open in Pictures and Video Tabs to beautiful, Full Screen video.

Previous MP4's created with Handbrake and H.264 Codec are Jerky.

Hope this may help.

PS - anyone interested in my iPod 32Gb Touch... :)
[HD2 General] Lusiv:
Don't know how you do that mate, but all my AVI files just won't play or give the famous grey screen.
[HD2 General] foxcheng:
When open file for coreplayer, you need to check the ''Enclose path in double qoutes", otherwise you will get that "File not found!\Storage (FFFFFFF8)" :)
[HD2 General] devbod:
My understanding is that both avi & mp4 files are 'container' formats. With these the video and sound are just undefined blobs of data understood only by the codec that deals with them. In theory that means the choice of avi/mp4 doesnt matter, its the encoding format of the data that matters.
[HD2 General] Lusiv:
Thank you for answering so fast:)

So that means I have to keep trying or use a converter like Red Kawa?

btw does anyone knows a converter that is fast? Don't get me wrong Red Kawa gives amazing quality (in my opinion anyways) but works 40 minutes for an episode of heroes. I was just wondering.....
[HD2 General] -josh-:
Iv been trying to use red kawa HTC HD2 converter, Selecting the touch hd option as there is no hd2 option and the conversions play great video but the sound stutters or is out of sink. I am in desperate need of a converter for PC that is straight forward to use and settings if anyone can help me?

p.s. prefarably a freeware converter?
[HD2 General] jonboyuk:
Ah ha!!! Thanks niteowl - changing from H.264 -> MPEG-4 (FFmpeg) has removed all lag in the audio! However there is still occasional lag (much better not not quite perfect!). Would you be a huge help and let me know exactly what settings you use and what player? And even more so, if you use coreplayer what settings in there!!

Many thanks!
[HD2 General] niteowl360:
Additional Settings

These are the settings I use within Handbrake:-

Video

Framerate (FPS): Same as Source

2-Pass encoding: Unchecked

Turbo first Pass: Greyed Out Unchecked

Target Size (MB): No Value Unchecked

Avg Bitrate* (kbps): 1000

Constant Quality: 94.12% QP:12

* I think this is the setting I used. You can try 1500 or 700 as alternatives!

NB Selecting H.264(x264) brings Constant Quality to 60.78% RF:20 (This seems to be the default setting for iPhone and iPod Touch which I prev used).

Audio

Source: Automatic

Audio Codec: AAC (faac)

Mixdown: Dolby Pro Logic II

Samplerate Khz: 48

Bitrate(Kbps): 160*

DRC: 0

For Audio files only, ie non-video, I usuallu use 192 Khz.

For Video I am perfectly happy to set to 160 Khz.

Hope this helps.

Ive read the entire post anmd have noticed its not once been mentioned that the original Touch HD encoder ver 1.21 is a great free encoder to MP4 but sadly it wont encode a video over 1000kbps (i think thats right) but does do the res thing good, it has encoded everything from mkv files to vob files using this, it encodes it all, its multi threaded but only up to maximum of 2 cores :( i love the results i get and files arnt too big.check out the attachment.

just unzip and run encoder.exe :D

It was not created by me and i take no credit or responcibility for in any way if something goes amiss on your computer but ive used it for a good year and its been sweet for me so I hope you all enjoy.

Samsung Touch Vs HD2 Player

Friends,

I was using Omnia 2 before.

I played an avi file without any problem. HD2 Video player is not playing the same avi file....the Video player freezes! I don't know whats happening.

I believe HD2 video player definitely supports avi format...but I am not sure what happening here...

I assume, codec is a software that will enable an existing to player to support multiple formats.

Is there a codec available for HD2 Video player? (to support Divx, Xvid etc)

Thank you!

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ulyaoth:
So, I have a T-Mobile G1, and lately, I was trying to install different custom ROMs to check out which one suits me.On the Android Spin site I noticed JesterBlur, and looked it up.It said in a thread that in order to install it I must have the Haykuro's SPL.I was previously using cyanogenmod with cm recovery 1.4, and when I installed the SPL the phone asked me to reboot.Ever since, when I press the power button to open it,it gets stuck on th T-mobile G1 screen.No combinations work, including Camera + Power.Any ideas anyone?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
It's dead. 1.33.2005 SPL requires the 26i radio, which you should have had already.

if you bought the phone on a contract walk in to the store and say that after accepting an update the phone rebooted and will not turn on. Try so sound as un-techsavvy as possible. They should replace it.

Eitherwise you either need to buy a new one, or replace the motherboard (thus replacing the borked nand).
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ulyaoth:
First of all thanks for replying so quickly.

And secondly.....The phone might not be exactly the T-mobile G1, but an Android Dev Phone 1......I just said T-mobile G1 because they're very similar...Oh and I also tried the conbination Trackball + Power and a blue led appers.Anyone knows what it means?And since I can't quite take it for a service, does anyone know ANY way to restore my phone?ANYTHING!Even if I have to do it manually.....It's useless in this condition anyway.......
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
Only thing you can do to getting working again is to replace the motherboard. Doesn't look too hard and I'm sure you can pick up G1's with cracked screens on ebay pretty cheap.

With new version of WM - 6.5.x it seems like Microsoft has changed hardware keyboard driver. With all previous versions of WM for Kaiser it was a simple trick to change the hw keyboard locale by changing the registry key:

HKLM\Hardware\DeviceMap\Keybd\

CurrLang (DWORD)

With WM6.5.x (with start menu button at the bottom) this registry key doesn't exist anymore. Creating one and setting the appropriate value doesn't change anything.

Does anyone have a solution for that? (particular I'm looking for a way to enable Cyrillic locale - value 1049 for CurrLang)
