Hey everybody, i spent some time trying to get the best possible video playback on my N810 ... and managed to get some interesting results.

Most of the forums will tell you that the best definition you can get with smooth playback is something like 400x240. I had some luck to try a lot of different settings and find a better one (to my opinion) :

AVI ; MP4 video ; Single pass ; 640x352 pixels ; 24 fps ; 650 Kbps ; MP3 audio ; 44.1 KHz ; stereo ; 128 Kbps

I encode it on my Mac using Handbrake. It should work as well encoded with another software on a Windows or a LInux computer.

It's good only for 24 fps videos, but it's a lot more detailed than 400x240 and plays perfectly on the default video player.

EDIT :
HERE IS THE POST WITH THE BEST SETTINGS I GOT (post 40 in this thread):
