FWIW "Saving Private Ryan" as both an avi and mp4 have played just fine on my rooted NC (Rockplayer).
[Nook Color General] Solandri:
In handbrake, the iPod/iPhone profiles produce video files which work fine on the NC (up to 854x480). So if Baddaboom has profiles for those devices, give those a shot. If you want try to tweak the settings manually, the magic configuration in handbrake is:

Set max B-frames to zero

Turn off CABAC entropy coding

Turn off 8x8 transform

Turn off weighted P-frames

In my experience vitalplayer neon plays movies better that rock player.
[Nook Color General] chisleu:
THANK YOU for that! I've been using rockplayer and having a couple different problems which put me trying different encoding methods last night (different sizes/audio settings, etc, etc.)

Rockplayer is simply inferior to the V7 "Neon" version of MoboPlayer. Very excited about this software find! Thanks!

On the 720p resolution thing:

The Nook's display is 1024x600. 720p video is 1280x720. Playing 720p format videos is overkill. You can convert it down to a smaller size (working on the "best" settings right now in my "Things I Learned" thread.)

Apparently the hardware accelleration only works on up to 854X480 MAX. Anything less than this is scaled up/down to that before run through a hardware scaling up to fullscreen (1024x600).

I find for software playing (for now) 854 width is doable, but 720 width (480p) is nearly the same quality. I'm still playing with the settings, and with the discovery of MoboPlayer, I'm redoing research. I'll be updating my thread with the "best" settings the software player can handle (max 1ghz cpu overclock). Since I'm using a max of 858x480, it should play with hardware accel flawlessly once that is working on CM7 (already works on 2.1/2.2?).

Love this platform.

I tried installing the htc_ime.apk on the streak and it doesn't work. I tried using astro. Does the tablet have to be rooted first? Does anyone know how to install it?
[Dell Streak 7] mreeekay:
Ok, It is installed and enabled but when I touch a text field, it force closes the keyboard and I need to choose a different keyboard.
[Dell Streak 7] gsmtmofan:
make sure the keyboard is from a device with the same resolution screen or you will get that force close

Ok. Thank you. Guess I'll have to wait until an htc tablet is released.

[Dell Streak 7] djnutz:
Are you installing Jonsi's using Gimpstas generator? That's the one that worked on my G1, N1, and Vibrant. I haven't tried on the Streak only because I switched to Smart Keyboard Pro on the market. It's cheap, has all the gestures, pop-up time customizations, and it's actively developed. It also works on the Streak.

So here's the result of a ShootMe screen grab:

i.e. useless.

Anybody found one that works on the 2x?
[LG Optimus 2x] PatSend:
Just press Menu and Power at the same time.
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
Doesn't seem to work for me.

As soon as I press power either the screen goes to sleep or I get the power down menu.

If I press menu first then I get the menu, hitting power then does as above.

If I (try to) hit them both at the same time, one or other of the above happens.

So, what's the trick?
[LG Optimus 2x] Koyuki-kun:

[LG Optimus 2x] DerKiLLa:

Launcher makes no difference in taking screenshots. It's the framework. If you're on stock rom, just use LG's built-in HOME+POWER mentioned in this thread.

[LG Optimus 2x] xs1ght:

[LG Optimus 2x] sacredsoul:
Cant get it to work. Power+Home button right?
[LG Optimus 2x] Mjuksel:
yes..

maybe its depending on some other files, but i dont know how to find that out :)

you can try to make a shortcut to this app in launcherpro (maybe ADW too, dunno) and press that :) ?

in LauncherPro longpress homescreen -> shortcut -> activity and then select com.lge.util :)

( long name = com.lge.util.ScreencaptureActivity )
[LG Optimus 2x] pa.pn2:
screenshot it works definitly

you have to choose alternative method in settings.all fine now
[LG Optimus 2x] Stikkontakt:
This depends on other components included in the stock release. So with only the apk you will not have any luck

I have no idea what components it needs though..
[LG Optimus 2x] miqutu:
any screenshot apk for stock rom?
[LG Optimus 2x] MillyMoo106:
it's built into stock rom (Home + Powerbutton)

what i would like on CM7 that is probably more realistic is long press of search or menu (menu - in next nightly) takes a screenshot.

As you can configure them to launch an app already it would just be having an app which takes a screen shot as soon as you run it
[Desire General] jonahjones:

Does anyone else have this problem?

[Desire General] Meaple:
Well you got ripped off because Rom Manager is ****. Seriously, you should NEVER flash anything with Rom Manager or have it installed at that. Just download it from CyanogenMod, put it on your SD and install it via recovery.
[Desire General] doctormetal:
Rom manager does what it is supposed to do and does it well.

The reason you do not see anymore nightlies is because there are no more. The nightlies got reset after RC1 was released. There isn't a new njghtly every night because sometimes there is no successful build.
[Desire General] Meaple:
Rom Manager does everything really poorly, seriously. It is useless and causes so many problems.
[Desire General] elmalote:
Care to elaborate?
[Desire General] Meaple:
The main issue(s) is when you reboot. Say you flash a rom, when you reboot it tends to just reboot and not flash the rom or anything. It does stuff like that. Rom Manager tries to be the recovery but whilst booted up but fails. Fair enough, it works for some people but so many other people have problems with it. Ok, it has been developed for "noobs" and yes, I did kind of use it at first but then I found out from my own experience it didn't work too well. I think that people should forget about Rom Manager and just boot up into recovery and just use that since the recovery actually works, and only takes a reboot (depending on your rom) to get into it.

Why, do you like it?
[Desire General] teazgood:
I've noticed same issue with the nightly. I've tried manually flashing the newer ones, but get an error on the device check. So rom manager is correct 13 or RC2 are the latest that will install
[Desire General] jonahjones:
Am a bit of a newbie to the custom rom world. So far rom manager has worked fine.

Am currently on cyanogen rc2 and have flashed my radio without problems. As a Java developer and a phone geek people think I am mad for mucking about with my phone so much.

The question was because I thought I had read there was a nightly 15.
[Desire General] aidanbree:
I have had the same issue with Rom Manager. I had to download directly from the Cyanogenmod site

Just flashed 17 and it seems to be really fast!

[Desire General] Madmanden:
I don't know if it's related, but I had trouble with CM7 RC2 when installed through ROM Manager, but manually flashing the CM7 Nightly #17 worked just fine. I wiped the caches etc. on both tries (or rather, ROM Manager did on the RC2).

Its always safe to exclude Bootloader while flashing as chances of bricking your phone are nil. One might not always brick phone if bootloader is selected.

But still, avoid it if possible.

im using it right now flash only the CSC PDA & Phone

if the odin crashes while adding one of the files just reopen and it will open with the files and add what is missing and flash no problem but turn off ur virus scan while doing it & log in as admin and open the ODIN thats it man ur good to go :D:D

[Galaxy 3 General] SparkyRih:
I read a lot of threads now, and I guess I understand everything pretty well, but I have one question left to make sure I'm safe:

Can I flash this firmware when my t-mobile simlock is on? right now the phone does have a t-mobile rom (manually rooted) (also found on samfirmwares.com)... or is it better to remove the simlock first?

And if I take a risk when flashing (without bootloader), can I be sure that issues that might accur get solved by reflashing the bojp6 firmware?

Just wanna make sure that I won't cripple/brick the phone permanently...

i normally use font changer to do this on my phone but for the my friend i wanted to make things as easy as poss and just tweak the rom so its in there by default

im ok with amending stuff within Roms (usually just framework /resource apks)

but dont know how to amend the font

anyone point me in the right direction ?

Thanks guys
[Desire Themes and Apps] mikep99:
Just put the font you want in /system/fonts in the rom zip. And rename it/them to DroidSans.ttf & DroidSans-Bold.ttf.

This will overwrite the default font (assuming Leedroid uses these as default, most roms do).

Then flash :)

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] neomira:
Hi Developers

I thought I would share an idea I had with the developers on this forum in regards to the issue with the x10 camera not functioning on 2.2 or 2.3 roms. I am an experienced developer, but honestly am not very familiar with the android platform to be able to attempt this idea. Don't shoot me down, this is just an idea but it may be worth investigating.

I understand that there are issues in porting items such as the camera over from a 2.1 rom over to 2.2 or 2.3 due to the change in the android camera api. Instead of rewriting drivers, etc, it may worth investigating or attempting the method I am about to mention.

I have noticed that there have been alot of emulators written to play games on the android, which emulate neogeo, psx, etc. Why dont we emulate aspects of the 2.1 run which can be run in 2.2 or 2.3?

For example, create an app which will emulate the camera from 2.1 rom by emulating the camera api's from 2.1. When you load up your phone and run the 'camera' app, it would actually emulate the camera app from 2.1 within the 2.2/2.3 rom by using the required 2.1 camera api's? I believe this would be the best way of resolving the issue. Plus, this app which emulates the camera from 2.1 would actually just be an app which can be easily installed to work on 2.2, 2.3, or any other future rom releases....

Developers, let me know what your thoughts are on this. If this works, we may be able to always use native features from the x10 already written and developed for the 2.1 rom.

neomira
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] xtrmshadow:
Thats a very good idea mate,make an 2.1 emulator for 2.3 and up. But mate thats not the problem,its not the camera app itself thats not working,its the inside libs(drivers so to say) that were written in 2.1 (Lets say Windows 98) language and now to switch them to 2.2/2.3 (Windows 7 so to say) is a problem cause those libs(drivers) arent compatible in the operating system,as Android changed ALOT from 2.1 to 2.2 and specially 2.3. You see,Z got the camera ongoing but with software decoding not hardware decoding,thats why you can make a photo but not a video,making a video is too much job for Software emulation (Try it with illusion pro,you'll result in a laggy 15fps 640x480 vid). What they are trying atm is to rewrite the camera driver in a way that it could cope with the hardware decoder . Cause the election is eigher camcorder or video-watching,and 90% want Video decoding rather than the Camcorder.

The camera itself is recognized and stuff but because the camera driver is very old already,it wont work on the new OS's.

Emulation is a good idea but still wont work alright afaik,its like trying to emulate a old windows 95 printer to your windows 7,yes you can emulate windows 95 but you wont be able to use the printer cause windows 7 doesnt know what it is or what to do with it,because the OS that handles the Hardware is the base one,not the emulated one.PSX and so on emulates the remote control cause Android base system knows the hardware that the software translates and makes you be able to use it and can interact with it (touch screen),but that happens because the base OS has and recognizes it,imagine if the base OS wouldn't know the touch screen.Having the buttons displayed on your display would be pointless cause you cant use them as they dont even exist for the base OS which is the important one.

EDIT : Thats why its called Emulation,cause it just Emulates the hardware,doesnt actually use it,has it or recognizes it ,its all software that translates from a unknown hardware to known software for the Base OS,but in our case if the base OS doesnt know the camera,its pointless that the Emulated OS does cause an emulation first needs an input to work,if that input isnt there it just wont work.

EDIT 2 : So its not the camera app,its the camera driver(libs),and there is no way you can use windows 95 drivers on windows 7 unless you rewrite them. (Heck,i remember i couldnt even use W95 drivers on WMillenium,and they had the same base kernel 9x so imagine).

But thats my thought,maybe there is something else i dont know and it could work.
