Re: Nokia N800 odd hissing sound

Re: Video player on the 800 - best practice?
Yeah - just went back and looked at my video. 28 Weeks Later, and the action sequence at the beginning of the movie (about 9 minutes in) was clipping like crazy in other versions. This one - with...

Re: Video player on the 800 - best practice?
I have yet to get MPlayer to work correctly. Mainly, sound doesn't sync. This is for unaltered files (have a couple of WMV clips - which look great but the sound was like a second off), and...

Re: pre-800 owner skeered away
Don't have Orb, didn't copy the file over, just streamed the music file from my laptop and then, because my wife wasn't impressed, a file from her laptop to the N800.

Re: pre-800 owner skeered away
Another tip - for Calendaring, I use the double whammy of GPE Calendar and Erminig. GPE Calendar is a pretty simple calendar app that gets the job done, and it can sync to Google Calendar with...

Re: It's time for new OS2008 firmware update
