New Optimized Mplayer For Pxa25x-based Zaurus Mode

[tovarish]

640x480 will not play well, I only tried 640x352 (aka 16:9) 500 kb/s
mplayer still drops frames, but movie is viewable

Do not use xVid, it doesn't play well with mplayer, use DivX, enable B-Frames, two pass encoding

I encoded audio at 44100 128 Kbs/c MP3 or OGG

Also, make sure to encode video in landscape mode, so that you don;t have to rotate.

And yes, I had to overclock.

how did you manage to use ogg, the ogg acm i have for use with virtualdub syncs very badly with the movie. Do you have a better copy. I would definetly prefer using ogg (abt 64kbps).
ouch 2 pass that will be a long time for a dvd to go to the zodiac. but i will check with divx5

I'm using PocketDivXEncoder - a very handy and easy to use program for Windows. It uses mencoder engine internaly and can produce movies with all the options you need (rotation, audion, B-frames, two pass etc)

arg. at the moment dvd::rip is flipping the image when i use Divx5.  but thanks for the heads up on xvid... it was my preferred. Any insight on ffmpeg mpeg4?

I'll look into making a C3000 version... shouldn't be very hard, I just can't test it...

Also, will look into making a good set of commandline shell scripts around mencoder.

didnt know about this tool, thanks a bunch, was spoilt by the clie movie convertor with my clie and virtualdub though very powerful is not exactly the easiest tool out there.

Do you think you could put your best config file for useage w/ PocketDivXEncoder?

I would love to do this, but not sure exactly what all the "stuff" means.

Try these options:

Video:

 - 640x480 or 640x352 depending of video aspect
 - 500 Kb/s
 - 2-pass encoding
 - B-frames
 - landscape orientation
 - OGM or AVI file depending on your taste

Audio:

 - 44100 Hz 128 Kb/s Stereo

This will produce a 500-500 Mb video file with good quality, which will playback more or less OK on overclocked Zaurus. If you don't want to overclock, you can use half the resolutions (320x240 or 320x176), but increase video bitrate to at least 600 kb/s or even more.
