- watching a video when the tablet continue to do something else in backgroud : you'd better keep old settings
- watching a video exclusively & with the best possible quality : new specs are a lot better
Some people like Benny aren't as picky as i am regarding picture quality ... for them there is no reason to go for the new settings ...

I really don't know what all you guys are smoking 
I've been watching vanilla (not recompressed) films and series downloaded of torrent since day 1 on my N810.
All videos I've tried are already in a format suitable for playing on the NIT with just the occasional hiccup in some fast motion scenes. I guess I don't watch action flicks really that often on the tablet, but I've really been impressed at the video playback using mplayer. Largest format I've tried to watch is 624x352, and that's about the standard for widescreen standard definition movies.
Maybe the speed of the SD card, or using something other then mplayer for watching is what's limiting video playback. I remember trying to watch these videos in Canola, and getting very choppy playback...

the videos you get from P2P networks usually are already re-compressed and encoded in various MPEG4-variants.

hi guys, i'm looking at getting an n810 but before i do i want to be sure i can transfer and watch my favourite feature length dvd movies onto it so i have a few questions.
1) do i need any additonal software?
2) do the movies need to be compressed first?
3) how much space does an uncompressed and compressed movie take up?
4) how many movies would i be able to save to an 8gb card (apparently this is the largest size the n810 will accept)?
5) have i missed anything?
all help greatly appreciated. cheers!

Much better than any of the programs listed on the wiki.
Hope it helps!
