Re: best DVD convertor and Settings?
 

Hi

I finally have sucess with DVD Video convertor after using iRiverter. One quick question. Someone posted profile file here. I am not sure where to place that file. Looking at the executable, its a shortcut running a target

C:\WINDOWS\system32\javaws.exe -offline "C:\Documents and Settings\Vinny\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache\6.0\19\453c4453-3b50af41"

Also I cant change vidoe size. Instead it allows me to change target device name and it automatically changes the size. What is the correct size to have the movie fill the entire screen when watching?

Thanks

See this wiki page:
http://internettablettalk.com/wiki/i...eos_to_the_770

which says:

"400x240 is the ideal resolution to N800 users as well as Mplayer users
352x288 is the best one for 770 for general video and 288x208 is the best for action video "

If you have a 770 and use Mplayer, then 400x240. Without using mplayer, 770 needs 352x288. For N800 = 400x240.

A very easy way to get the correct size it convert the video into a good sized file with at least this resolution and then run it through Media COnverter, which is very fast. I convert all my videos first from DVD to an AVI, then run them through media converter. Hope this helps.

I had tried mencoder with various options and sadly all failed.
Then I downloaded Iriverter and converted to 512x whateer resolution using irverter and it worked on my N810 flawlessly.

You can select form soome pre-select options and the Iriver PMP option works best for me.

Iriverter seems to be able to handle my copy-protected DVDs and is free. (The other freebies and IT specific programs didn't)- but it's not too flexible for resolutions as it's made for the iriver line.

If you want to spend a little, this is the one-click DVD-to-Nokia solution

It seemed to default to 400x240 on my wide-screen DVDs. But they still doesn't ~quite~ fill out the screen (tiny pixel sized bands) like those N800 promo vids and Gary Oldman! ;) But it's still quite satisfactory.

My laptop runs Ubuntu and I am using ConvertIt.

You can get it here. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...ight=convertit

click Build > Add > and use this command line

ffmpeg -i INPUT -s 400x240 -vcodec mpeg4 -acodec mp3 -ac 2 -ar 16000 -r 25 -ab 32 -y OUTPUT

Now I don't have a N800 to try this out on, I am assuming that it will workl.
