Hi.
I'd like to know which settings result in the best video playback on the TyTN II.
Forgive me if this is posted somewhere else, but I could not find it when searching.
I'm running WM 6.1 Sleuth 3.0 with TCPMP 0.81.
How about the best settings for Coreplayer as well. Also running Sleuth 3.0. Sleuth any comments, you seem to have Coreplayer as well.

There is no best settings!
It's all about how you rip your movies!!
Have you ever heard the phrase, "Garbage in, Garbage out"
If you start out with a quality file, you won't need TCPMP to enhance or make it better.
All my movies are .avi and I use Clone DVD Mobile to rip them. Personally, I haven't had any issues playng movies with TCPMP or CORE Player.
All my settings are default
I'm copying videos that are not converted in any special way to play back good on mobile devices.

SO far I noticed 2 things that effected quality of video.
I ripped 2 avi with different settings.
Video A was in 320x240 (cropped), 26fps
Video B was in 512x384 (unedited), 29fps
1) Video A played smoothly throughout. Audio lag was evident after about 1.5 hrs. Otherwise very watchable. Thus I figured 26fps is max for the Kaiser.
2) The video B skipped and dragged. Audio stayed in sync. When I selected TCPMP to play video B in full original size (overlapping the screen) it played smoother. Thus I figure that resizing is too much for the cpu of the Kaiser so when you encode, select 320x240.
fyi, audio was mp3 128kbps, 44000 on both.
I should specify what I mean by full original size.
Options --> Zoom ---> 100%
Also should specify I mean "when encoding select 320x240" MAXIMUM which will reduce the load on the cpu for video resizing.
You know, sometimes, you just happens to have badly ripped (poorly, or improperly or whatever but someone else did it and you don't have control) video but would like to watch it.
So, looking for better settings to improve the viewing.....
Latest video codec? audio codec? cache? how to set it? Where to get it from?........

Why wouldn't you just encode it to the natural screen size, and why wouldn't it having to resize bigger rips slow it down?
This is a pretty strange post.. Walking a mile is easier than running a mile. Walking a mile with nothing on your back is easier than walking a mile with Yoda on your back.
Common sense
Hi,
which mediaplayer is best for the diamond, or in other words, which support the video accelerator chip (QTv ?). Today I installed Nero Media Player Pro, but it either failed to render TV-Rips (std.~350mb only 1-2sec playback) or very chunky playback of 320h mov files/trailers. Obviously no support of the QTv here.

well sheer power wise, TCPMP is the best media player for any mobile platform but i doubt that it supports the accelerometer and the interface isn't exaclty finer freindly.
Try coreplayer
I've been using coreplayer as well... works great, no conversion needed really... pretty much plays everything...
I'd agree that TCPMP is best for me
I have found that running movies through PocketDivXEncoder first improves the view. I need to test the settings a bit more but video quality between 14 and 20 at full resolution looks great so far (audio 6 or 7)
thanks for your recommendations, will try them.
does any of those support upnp ? like to stream some videofiles from my nas box. therefore reencoding first to divx isn't really an option for me..
btw. while playing around with mediaplayers and wifi today, I burned the battery within TWO hours
Yeah. CorePlayer FTW! I hate TCPMP. CorePlayer is the best media player (video wise). Totally worth paying for. I'd suggest Conduit's Pocket Player for audio files or S2P.

I got Core player and at first before i had the Elite 2.0 ROM it was playing really bad.
Now, For example, i have the last 2 episodes of the latest Doctor Who Series on my diamond and it plays them ReallY well. Its in Sync and its top quality video. I love the VGA screen!!
NOT: These are Xvids that are 500-600MB each so they havent been re-encoded
Hum I have bought coreplayer 1.2.5, if I see a film with the diamond native resolution, it is very slow. Is it normal ?
No problem with the resolution 240*320 but we have a very beautiful screen I would like to see my film on 480*640
Have a full avi rip here of a anime series and TCMP is really crap, it lags, choppy playbacks and freezes then plays. I really dont know how you guys are using it. I am using elite 3.0 and i did try it also on standard manufactures it was the same.

Which version and what settings of Core Player are you using ?
The resolution of the videos is more or less 640x480 ?
I tried like Diagorn the Core Player 1.2.5 and a lot of settings, but on my diamond high quality videos are really slow (the sound is ok, but images is like slideshow)
@yodjar
that is exactly what is happening to me the file itself is around 170mb and its about 22 mins long. Plays beutiful using my p.c and my universal (xda exec) and any other p.c with anything that can play the avi. Please post a solution here if you find one people who seem to have it working dont seem to say how it works it just does.
Nobody ?
I can't understand why this thing doesn't interest ppl more...
I have problems to see some videos
First Sorry for my english I am using a Traslatos then I correct it.
I had moved my videos that I have in my old Eten X800 to the Diamond, most of them can not see but heard, including some filmed with a Photograph camera or with the Eten. That may be happening? I am using the CorePlayer but the same thing happens with some in the Window Media Player 1.2.1 for Arm, with the same Core Player I can see the videos in the Eten.
Thanks Carlos

Yes, Core player is better than TCPMP player I think since I told some videos using y canon ixus 60 and it wouldn't play on the window media player and on TCPMp is jerky but core player is very smooth.

There's a separate thread somewhere about supporting the Qtv chip on the Diamond - have a search if I don't find it before you.
Hello!
I have tried a couple codecs and settings in TCPMP now but cant find any optimal combination for VGA video. Does anyone have any good settings for encoding and playback? Is there any hardware-accelerated CorePlayer version yet perhaps?
Thanks
MS
EDIT: Answering my own question. After fiddling with codecs and settings the WHOLE day i found out that Coreplayer 1.2.5 brings QTV support to the diamond and it boost the performance 20-30% which makes watching shorter VGA clips passable =)
Hello, where are you find the codecs for coreplayer ?
Get coreplayer instead mate.. Its the continued development of tcpmp and includes all codecs!
setup:
olinex SPL 1.4x
Shaks.P v4.30
i like to watch music videos on my diamond. however i like to use vids with 640x480 reso on HIGH quality. but with coreplayer it lags as hell. wmp can't decode many of them. i use particular .Avi vids from youtube or similar.
what are the possibilities for me to render high quality music video's with no lag. i had a Tosiba portege g900 with a geforce 5200 chipset wich had no problems with it.
it doesn't matter if i change the settings of coreplayer, it still lags. and this is with no programs on the background
never mind. i was too stupid too not look around. i found the converter for this

or try playing video in album...it should be smooth
Hi,
100% noob but have a really annoying problem!
Everytime I playback a video it lags constantly. On youtube or even a video I have loaded on through my sd card.
Does anyone have the same problem or know a solution?
Thanks a heap!!!
had the exact same problem - spent so long trying those tweaks and different codecs and so on... nothing got it smooth and still have decent quality - my solution was to get an iPod Touch... but this thread may help you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=459676
Sigh... It has been discussed many times. Use the converter on the first page (the last "sticky" thread) to covert your files to mp4 format. After that watch them with WMP.
For other files use CorePlayer, but it will lag, because it doesn't have hardware acceleration..
Use CorePlayer for YouTube. It is perfect.
In coreplayer you can use Qtv and set the quality to medium. Even on WM6.5 ROMs with manila 2.5 running, video playback is smooth. I watch full size divx files from my SD card without problems.
The coreplayer menus are a nightmare, though. You have to go to tools, preferences, select page, video. Then choose Qtv and medium.
