(Takes a deep breathe)

I'm been trying to troubleshoot this problem all day, what video format works on wmp?!

I've tried FLV, AVI, MP4, and even WMV.

FLV and AVI both fail to register, there's video for MP4 but for some reason it's going at 2x/3x the speed! And WMV(2) is unworkable.

I been using imovie and vlc to convert the formats, and I can't find a format that works.

[General Questions and Answers] OGIGA:
Hello. I've searched all over but could not find the right answer.

I installed Chinese language support (don't remember where I got it) to read and write/type in Chinese. While that's awesome, the default input is always Chinese (pinyin). I lived with it for a while, but it's really annoying. Every time I press a key on the keyboard or on the on-screen-keyboard, it thinks I'm trying to write something in pinyin. I have to slide open the physical keyboard and press control+space to switch to English. I have to control+space again to type English in the next text field.

I know someone will ask this, but no, changing input methods doesn't fix the problem.

My question: How do I make the default input language English?

Or maybe I should ask: Can someone recommend me a free software package to allow me to read and write Chinese that doesn't have this problem?

Hi,

could someone please help me with the following.

I bought an LG GM750 operating WM6.5 Professional. I installed updated SPB shell, Time & Weather and Resco Audio as I had been using these on my WM5. I found that the Resco Audio did not perform properly and removed it. Subsequenty I also noticed that all my incoming messages time were about 13 hours ahead. System time, call times etc are all okay. I have been through the regional set up, 3rd party software etc and everything looks okay. I have already tried to remove all 3rd party softwares and reboot my device to factory set up many times but still have the corrupted time without 3rd party software.

I would appreaciate help in this area

Could be server related. Ask if someone who's on the same provider has this same issue.

Hi Roma,

thanks for the reply. No wasn't server related as I verified it texting side by side with someone using the same provider (Vodafone). All outgoing texts were okay. His messages from me were with the correct time stamp but only his messages to me were marked with the 13 hours difference in time on my device.

This sounds like what i had. for no apparent reason the phone decided to keep all messages in the outbox (viewable via classic sms display). sending sms messages in different ways somehow unclogged the outbox and all messages were sent.

i did have to bother someone with a test message, unfortunately

sorry i can't be specific. dutch button names wouldn't be much help ;). the sms tab has a conversation view and a traditional view. switch between those to get the option to see the outbox.

different ways of sending text messages are via the contact display, from the conversation view and just clicking the 'new message' button while in conversation view. somehow these roads to the same function work quite different.

[HD2 General] Shasarak:
This is a well-established bug which HTC has so far refused to acknowledge. Your best bet is for you and everybody else to keep complaining to HTC tech support until someone higher up gets to hear about it.
[HD2 General] [★]:
Christ sake HTC have so many ****ing bugs in whats meant to be the best mobile device available. Dont get me wrong I love my device but theres just so many serious problems
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
What annoys me is not so much the bugs but the impossibility of getting hold of anyone at HTC to tell them about them; there seems to be virtually no communication at all between "tech support" and "head office". The bugs wouldn't be a problem if we could report them and get them fixed, but there isn't anyone we can usefully report them to.

As above, try setting an audio delay when encoding (if you can with whatever software you are using).

Works fine for me. :)

Hi, erm I think they play correctly, ( I tried the star wars one ) Its hard to tell when theres no lip movement, but yeah it seems right :)

[HD2 General] Moandal:
I've raised this issue with HTC support. Clips that are perfectly in sync on the Touch HD2 are out of sync on the HD2. I'll let yout know what they say.
[HD2 General] [★]:
Yes Ive done the same, but Im not expecting an answer, htc never reply to m :mad: but thats probably because im rude lol
[HD2 General] kenkiller:
Sure, just go along with kr00t0n's audio delay if my profiles give OOS results.

At least for me, my current setup on that thread gives me the best looking videos without too much fuss. But it also depends on the videos you feed into it. MKVs with dts/vorbis might encounter some problems....if you have those we can talk somemore. :D

That's Star Wars : The Old Republic iirc....upcoming video game.
[HD2 General] [★]:
Well I have a ton of mkvs lol, but Ive converted most of them to avi already so its not a problem. I tried that method, with your profile with the slight delays ect and it worked great! really high quality as well :) (Although I couldnt find where to change the FPS to 30)

The only problem was it took about 25 minutes to encode a 20 minute show which is pretty long @_@ Especially on a quad core pc
[HD2 General] kr00t0n:
Here are some more 0.400 delayed 720p encodes:

http://www.kr00t0n.com/Kjam/Avatar.mp4
[HD2 General] kr00t0n:
This is why you should turn your pc on in the morning, queue up the videos, start encoding, then go to work, lol!
[HD2 General] kr00t0n:
After some testing, I have found that the resolution of the original video needs to be factored in to the resolution used in WinMEnc.

Most videos are 1280x720, which is 16:9, but 800x480 is 16:10.

This will cause encoded videos to be stretched upwards slightly, or in the case of more cinematic resolutions (the Legion trailer is 1280x608) stretched quite a bit.

Using this website, you can find out what settings you need in WinMEnc.

Find out the original resolution and put it in the lefthand boxes.

Then put 800 in top righthand box, and calculate.

1280x608 needs 800x380 to maintain aspect ratio (no stretching).

I edited the ini to be 800:380, as you can't edit this in WinMEnc itself, save, then load.

Comparisons:

[HD2 General] Bimme:
no sync issues here. I use HDencoder @1000kbit Video 128kbit Audio and check Normalize Audio.

Never had a out of sync problem converting MKV to MP4.

Some MKVs contain an audio delay for specific audio tracks, which most converters cannot read. Have the same problem when converting/muxing MKVs for PS3. Maybe this is your problem here....?!
[HD2 General] waiting2lose:
why bother converting??? just get coreplayer and play avi's....happy days??
[HD2 General] kr00t0n:
SD and DVDrips do indeed play fine in Coreplayer at their original resolution, but this is lower than the actual screen res, and dither and smooth zooming removes the pixellation at the cost of definition.

720p/1080p files can be encoded to 800xwhatever to have amazing clarity and detail.

It is totally down to the user, but some shows I would like to have looking as good as they can on my phone, may as well use the power of the device to it's full potential. :)

Not a very encouraging reply, sounds like quite a generic one to me :mad:
[HD2 General] Toss3:
Yeah blame HTC when you don't know how to convert your videos properly. :rolleyes: Converted a myriad of movies/avi:s and no sync issues whatsoever. As a senior member you really ought to learn how to use the search function; there are already threads about this subject: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=612935&highlight=video and http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=582122&highlight=video. P-krill was nice enough to provide the necessary settings for smooth video playback on the HD2 in the latter of the threads.
[HD2 General] kenkiller:
Well, I'm sure there's something to be said when videos that play fine on the older TouchHD go OOS on the HD2. Anyway, the problem's solved, no need to make snide remarks. :D
[HD2 General] kenkiller:
Under the video tab, there's a Video Frames (fps)...that where you can choose your FPS. For videos that don't convert well with the "original" settings there (some wmvs are guilty of this), I suggest using Mediainfo to find out the actual FPS of the video file, then setting that in Winmenc.

For a faster encoding, try playing with the multi-threads settings under the video tab, and the priority toggle on the lower right. They make quite a big difference for me if I set them to the max. Of course, the higher the quality of the source media (720 is much faster than 1080p, and there isn't any noticeable improvement using 1080p media over 720p media), the slower the encoding. Of course, 1-pass/2-pass doesn't seem to make too much of a difference....I just think having it on maybe gives a placebo effect. :D
[HD2 General] kenkiller:
No need for that. Just put 800x480 in the video size area....and tick fit to width. It will automatically calculate what size to decode to to maintain aspect ratio. This is for widescreen videos of course. If you have 4:3 media that does over 480p, then you will be using the fit to height option. Hope you get what I mean. :D

You can enter the values of the video size directly in Winmenc, but make sure to save the profile you've entered, it might be gone later. :D

edit : oh yes, i checked some of your videos, you're still setting 30fps for trailers that are traditionally at 23.976fps. That means you're wasting 6fps of information in the 2000kbps allocated for each second of video....you're not getting the kind of quality you should be getting. :D Also, if you ticked fit to width, you also would be saving some of the 2000kbps for the picture of the actual video itself, not the blackbars that are artificially added in by Winmenc because you didn't use the fit to width option. Do try and let me know if it works. :D
[HD2 General] kenkiller:
Yes...this is usually the case for mkvs with vorbis/dts tracks. Usually I use heartware audioconverter to covert the audio tracks to ac3, then they will convert nicely without being OOS.
[HD2 General] Moandal:
HD encoder does not resolve the OOS issue. I've just tried it on a youtube .flv download with the Normalize audio option ticked and once again the resulting output is in sync on my PC but clearly OOS on the HD2.

It would seem the only fix at present is to use an encoder that lets you manually adjust the video/audio sync for the HD2 like winmenc. But then of course it'll be OOS on everything else!
[HD2 General] [★]:
Its not that I dont understand how to covert my videos -.-, converting a video purposely out of sync, so that when the phone plays it out of sync, it becomes in sync isnt how to properly convert videos, its just a temporary fix from smart guys here at xda until HTC sort the problem out, so yes I can infact blame HTC as I know Im not the only one to have these problems -.-
[HD2 General] kenkiller:
True...but look at the brighter side, any video converted would most probably be exclusively for playback on the HD2 anyway. :D
[HD2 General] kr00t0n:
Thanks for the heads up, WinMEnc not having any sort of user manual meant I was just flying blind, haha! :)

Will try out your advice, however I have already found an annoying stumbling block.

I can encode 720p movs (all the trailers I've done) without any issue, but mkvs want initialise at all in WInMEnc. Does it support encoding of mkvs?

I would have thought so given the filetype is in the list of importable media when adding files to the batch screen.
[HD2 General] kenkiller:
It does for me, can encode mkvs just fine (albeit as previously mentioned sounds delays depending on the audio codecs used).

Maybe u can try installing k-lite mega codec? It might be using directshow for encoding if it doesn't support mkv as part of the package.
[HD2 General] kr00t0n:
Will give that a go tonight, cheers! :)
[HD2 General] Moandal:
I sent my test video from this thread:

"Hi Allan,

This has been tested using your file as an example here and we have passed the information to developers fortesting and investigation for possible resolution.

Please monitor the support pages for further updates.

Not much help but at least they didn't tell me to try a hard reset, and they might even come up with a fix in due course.
[HD2 General] Ouzo:
My Acer S200 had exactly the same sync problems, no matter how I encoded the videos, what the source was, what the output was and no matter what app I used to play them on the phone. The HD2 I got today does exactly the same : (

I really wish reviewers would do their job properly when they test a device, I never read anything about this until after I noticed today.

Hope it's not common to all snapdragon phones...
[HD2 General] jonbaker76:
This needs sorting out, i've been using winmenc to compensate for the sync issue but this morning i played Harry Brown on it and it is still out of sync. Maybe this rip works ok without the sync fix, will have to see tonight :mad plays fine on the pc.

It was a m720 rip mkv with ac3 audio.

the video scenario on this device is awful:

1). OOS issue

2). Coreplayer drops many frames, doesn't support AC3 but TCPMP does but that is also juddery.

3). WMP UI is awful but i sthe only player that works well (ish)

4). My HTC player performs about the same as coreplayer, WMP is my only option

5). WMP on occassion starts to skip and judder (not the drop frame type) and this is with airplane mode on and comm manager shut down via task manager and all other updates off. :confused:

For a phone with a screen like this and the snapdragon, video playback should be at the top of the list for performance but it's pants IMO:

here was my thread on it all:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=641734

EDIT:

i just treid that Harry Brown mp4 in Judderplayer (coreplayer) and applied the usual sync offset and it was fine (apart from judder player dropping 1,000,000 frames per second, well, it was actualy 120 dropped on 3012 played frames) It would therefore appear that winmenc didn't apply the audio sync dealy during converison... hmmmm... interesting.

At the end of the day, we shouldn't have to adjust audio syncs for video it's very poor on HTC's part
[HD2 General] jonbaker76:
i'm finding tha avi's need the audio delay setting in winmenc but mkv's don't :confused: well, at least this rip don't

just converted harry brown without the delay and it plays fine.

Jesus i'm really :confused: now

strange ?

I had combination of Artemis 5.5 ROM version with 2.07 Radio for more then 1 week, at that time I had no problems with the Sync issue.

any other combinations since then or befor that, no metter what I did, I had the same sync problem.

now, I don't understand this issu, but it is a fact, if any of you will make this combination and find the video/Audio much better, I think we have break through here.

if not, I don't know what was causing the player to be better.

now I'm using Artemis 6.0 with 2.09 radio - same problem as before.
