kafklatsch Posted December 21, 2009 Report Share Posted December 21, 2009 I have tried all kinds of formats with no success. freezups, screen size.... all crappy...... I decided to go from a 16GB SD card down to a 2GB thinking the card size was the issue. the video was still crappy BUT, I happened to have a 10 second video file I made with my blackberry on the sd card. It was a .3GP file. It played perfect. it is not listed in the avic manual, but it is some variation of the MPEG4 which is listed. I now have movies the fill my screen completely and video that plays without freezes or skips. I encode movies using "DVDFab6" using the "dvd to file" option. I convert to .3GP and use the following custom settings; Frame Resolution... 720 X 540 (fills the 16:9 screen - could handle some slight tweaking - HELP?!?!?!) Fixed BitRate....... 650kbps Split.................. No Split FrameRate.......... 23.976 (defaulted to this, so i left it... ) Audio BitRate....... 64kbps Audio Channel...... Dolby Prologic II Volume.............. 300% (for my installation). The video is more than good enough, and though it is not as smooth as my home TV, it is very good. I reposted and editted this due to its importance. Originally posted at "http://avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=18103 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

1loudls Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 i recently downloaded YouTubeRobot to download HQ videos instead of streaming them and it converts them to a blackberry format(or should i say a format for my blackberry) that work great, full screen, high res(well high res for a small screen), and it plays smoothly Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kafklatsch Posted December 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 was it a .3GP file format? i recently downloaded YouTubeRobot to download HQ videos instead of streaming them and it converts them to a blackberry format(or should i say a format for my blackberry) that work great, full screen, high res(well high res for a small screen), and it plays smoothly Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PhatXb Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 Sounds great, but how is the sound quality. I haven't tried my new idea yet. But what I have in mind in finding the best original videos I could and I will be converting using Divx Pro 7 which has it's own burn utility to burn to disc, which if you imagine you could probably fit around 30 plus music videos on a DVD in the DIVX format and the audio is great and the video is clean and smooth as long as the original video is good too. Especially since SD cards take so long to load up. The only thing I haven't tried is getting a usb hard drive set up, since I do like using my Ipod more for music.

kafklatsch Posted December 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 Sounds great, but how is the sound quality. the sound is equal to a standard 128 bitrate mp3 - it is good enough. I use an SD card via usb, so DIVX is out of the question. I am using the f500bt, but the .3GP files should work on all F Series. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
