average for video is 1500kbps in documentation.

mhm.. reboot? *smile*

no i use a constant quailty setting which is actually a variable bitrate,

ive rebooted so many times im going to have nightmares of that nokia boot video

kmplayer also appears to be playing m4v files as well, its just a shame that the GUI for kmplayer is pants :)

Ok I popped over a rip of Rambo II I made using similar settings. It shows fine for me in the default media player but I just get the 5 white dots forever.

EDIT: Tried a second video same thing.

hehe, disable or change the video ;)
(disabling with powatool or changing over the maemo.org-search ^^)

btw: i may try sib and kmplayer for different container-types and codecs (:

EDIT: no difference between AVI, MP4 and MKV playback at all.

it's very surprising that the gui makes a difference in playback. they seem to start mplayer with different commands/options.

If there seems to be a problem with the decoder, why can't you just encode in xvid as that seems to work quite well? Atleast what I've tried watching some episodes were fine with no problems with sync or frame dropping. Not sure what settings are used as I haven't encoded them by myself. But seems that all my "special discount" series and flicks work when acquired from "special places".

lol like i said at the start of this thread, ive got over 200 of my dvd's encoded with these settings, so re-encoding them is a serious no-no for me, thats almost 5 years of DVD ripping and encoding, sod that!!! :D

This may be broken actually. My 9 trailer and N900 commercial won't play now either, endless white dots...

Could someone please upload video that doesnt work? Small clip is enough. Trailer would be good.
