Hi everyone

I decided to rip a few of my DVDs and put them onto my Nokia n800 for an upcoming trip, however I am having issues with the playback.

Firstly, I am on the latest Nokia operating system, and am playing back the movies via mplayer.

I started by converting the DVDs through the use of the Fair Play wizard (using all the default settings). After the conversion, I transferred the file onto my Flash card and played the movie on mplayer - fantastic picture quality, but the picture was jerky every now and then.

I presumed this was because I had the quality settings too high, and the processor couldn't keep up. Therefore I ran the file through the Maemo movie converter.

However when I watch the new file on my Nokia, the picture is still jerky at odd intervals, like the processor is unable to keep up with the framerate - why is this happening even after I have run the file through movie converter?

I used the default settings in Movie converter, which I believe are as follows:

Video: 400x240
Video bitrate: 512 kbps
Audio bitrate: 64kbps

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can get a movie on my Nokia that will play smoothly, without a jerky picture?

Many thanks in advance.

Martin.
