I am a recent purchaser of the SL-6000. Very cool product. However, I am trying to run video on it in wmv, avi, or mov format and the player installed on it appears to run ony mpeg-1.
Does anyone know of a player that will play these files? I tried kino but it does not function on the 6000. Any help would be appreciated |

saakmotu,
I encode my movies using Divx compression, 320x240, 250kbps, 15fps for the video and 56kbps or 96kbps MP3 for audio. At 15fps dropping frames shouldn't be necessary to maintain sync between video and audio. If your PC runs Windows a very good encoding program is VirtualDub (freeware). Once installed I recommend you also download and install the latest Divx codec (the basic version is free as well): http://www.virtualdub.org/ http://www.divx.com/divx/?src=toptab_divx_from_/index.php I can also play succesfully MPEG1 and MPEG2 files. although I never use this format as the file size is much bigger. And by the way, all of them will have the .AVI extension. Have fun. |
