Video Locks Up My Zaurus :(

[Jon_J]

actually, it added more frames.
original 151mb file is 330 frames
this one is 497 frames (this file is 733kb)

[Jon_J]

I turned off [drop frames] in kino settings.
The file plays OK now, but it is tiny at 320x240

trying pocketPC-vga 640x480 setting now.

no--use view...scale to full screen in kino.

[Jon_J]

pocketPC-vga looks a lot better, but it plays in slow motion, and the sound is completely finished before the video starts playing.
I have been using 24000 khz for mp3 as adf suggested

I did that with the 320x240 version, it has a bunch of vertical lines through it like a closeup of a TV, except in vertical.

At least it plays now, the 640x480 version looks beautiful, but it doesn't play very well. (This is without using the scale to full screen)

prefferences use under options for mplayer -vm -fs

i kinda like this software, makes videos look blurry compared to mines but its very small.  I preffer size over quality.

What do those settings do?
I just wanted to know, is there a refrence for all the settings for mplayer?
Thank you very much Cresho for hanging in there with me

[Cresho]

actually, im trying to find a better encoding settings. you mentioned this program and pretty much compresses smaller than my stuff.

[Jon_J]

after using kino for awhile, it made my taskbar turn all black. I had to restart Qtopia to restore the taskbar.
I also overclock video playback to Turbo (624/208/104 MHz)

[Cresho]

if the commands did that, remove it.

[Jon_J]

Using the rotate setting described in this post, makes my 640x480 version play at almost realtime, except it's upside down.

I didn't launch from the console as this post suggests. I just played it in Kino2.

There is a remarkable difference between the original video re-encoded in pocketdivxencoder with the rotation changed by 2 clicks, and the original video re-encoded without changing the rotation.
All other options are the same.

This happens because mplayer writes to the framebuffer but doesn't "erase" afterwards. You don't need to restart Qtopia, simply open some app that goes fullscreen (terminal, photostorage slideshow, etc...) and when you close the app, your taskbar will be restored.

Another way is to flip the screen because in this case the taskbar will be rebuilt. But it is really annoying for me. Another thing is: it is not possible to play video-playlists. Audio is no problem, bu if I try with videos only the first will play, the others will be skipped. Does anybody have the same problem or a solution?
