AAC in music player

is AAC audio works in the fancy music player of Touch Diamond?

Good question. Does anyone have a list of formats that the music player supports?

Ring tone supported formats:
- MP3, AAC, AAC+, WMA, WAV, and AMR-NB

thats from expansys - so i suppose if the ringtone support is ACC you should be able to play them through the media player....

Tried myself today, it works perfectly with all my AAC encoded podcast

.MP4 Conversion to .WMV / .MPG

Friends,
I noticed that the video recorder uses .mp4 to encode video.
What free apps that are on the market these days can encode to other
formats?
I noticed there are only two options .mp4 and h.263
Please advise!
Thank You,
Tvos

A program called "Super" will convert almost anything to anything! well worth a look.

Yep Super is a good tool, but the website to download it can be a real pain.
Handbrake is great if you have a Mac.
This looks rather cool too: http://mediacoder.sourceforge.net/
On the flipside:
The Free version of Any Video Converter hass a nice beginners user friendly interface:
http://www.any-video-converter.com/products/for_video_free/
Input formats:
avi, asf, mov, rm, rmvb
flv, mkv, mpg
3gp, m4v, and vob
Output formats:
avi, wmv, mp4, 3gp
wmv and flv
MPEG-1 and MPEG-2
mpg (PAL or NTSC)

yah you are correct about 'super' being a pain..took me about five minutes to scroll thru all that mumbo jumbo!
i will try both products super and any dvd to see if this does the quick job!
what format is better to use: mp4 or h.263?
thank you,

super didn't convert the mp4.. ran into problems with that application and the other couldn't read it.

I love that App.

Yes its a great app but it doesnt play subtitles including videos.
Any better advice??????

Rockpalyer works great!!
But i'm interested in subtitle too

Rockplayer works for me.

M video player

I'm not sure how QQPlayer handles it, but it's another free (great) video player worth downloading and trying.

Still waiting........

Only phones with native mkv video format support can play .mkv videos efficiently. So, forget about mkv, it doesn't matter which player you use. But anyway, the best video player for me is RockPlayer.

Try Vital player. It supports SMI and SRT subtitle files.
But i don't try mkv files. It should work coz rmvb works.

..
QQ Player works great on My HD2.

Vitalplayer works fine.

Mediacoder
I think the best method would to just burn the subtitles into the encoded video...
Furthermore, MKV container can support a lot of different video (most commonly h.264)...
either way, it would be beneficial to convert to h.264 video and aac audio in mp4 container... Then virtually all target devices can play the file. You'll run 720p that way a lot better too (480p ideally to save space)
So, if you have a nvidia card with PureVideo2 I definitely recommend this method...(or a decent cpu)
mediacoder has cuda encoder bundled with it to make quick work of video->mp4
Here are some of my settings that I use in Winmo, plays back flawlessly on android too.
Video:
Avg bitrate - 1200 (you can set it higher if you want... you'll just get a bigger file size with marginally better quality imo)
Format - h.264
Encoder - Cuda (NVidia cards) , ffmpeg (cpu encoding)
Audio:
Format - LC-AAC
Encoder - FAAC
Avg Bitrate - 128 MPEG4
Container - MP4 (select it in both audio and container tab)
Picture:
Resize - 800x480
Aspect Ratio - Set pixel AR, 1:1
Crop - Disabled
Subtitle
Renderer - Default
Scale, position, outline, blur) - adjust for subtitle appearance
ID - 0 to # (set according which subtitle you want to use from the source video
These are just some loose settings to get you into ballpark range...
make sure you preview before you encode a bunch of files and make sure it works on the device.
I also think there is a "portable device" edition of mediacoder
Sorry for the long post.

mobo player plays mkv with subs but it isnt the best. good enough for the meantime till i find something better.

Mpeg videos

Is it possible to watch downloaded mpeg videos on the phone either with an app or anything of the sort? It shows the files, but it obviously doesn't play them with stock apps.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App

depends on the encoding.
from motorola:
PLAYABLE FORMATS
AAC, H.263, H.264, MP3, MPEG-4, WAV, eAAC+, WMA v10, WMA v9, MIDI, AAC+
there are apps you can download that will play other formats, however, i don't remember very many of them being that great. someone else will have to chime in on app suggestions. did coreplayer ever release their player?

I usually keep a few movie players on my phone, because there isn't a perfect one yet. The two I rely on most are MoboPlayer and QQPlayer.

Rockplayer is one of the best video players you can use. It's rather large in file size but with the D3 you should be fine.

Please tell me any question that you have, Looking forward to your reply!

I'm a little confused, the website for this program has a clock that says "time left 52 days". Could you elaborate on that please? Also, I'm noticing large amounts of clipping and distortion to the audio tracks of many videos.

the old version was not stable regarding video quality. in the new one the video is very good, but now i cannot get any sound.also is there an option to add subtitle?
PS: good work with the video...there is no more pixelated video

In order to stream various kinds of videos and movies, no matter MP4, WebM and MKV with incompatible audio or video codecs, or AVI, FLV, WMV, MPG, MOV, OGV, WTV, etc that are natively unsupported by Chromecast, the most widely used solution is to convert them to Chromecast recognized formats.
Faasoft Video Converter is a wonderful choice to complete the above job. Happy with it.
