How to get dvd films onto my kaiser?

Ok I am a newcomer so many of you may think this a simple question ..but .. how can I transfer my dvd films onto my kaiser? I have read a few threads about converting video formats and have downloaded a copy of Pocket Divx which I hope is a step in the right direction. What now? I admit to being confused by talk of bit rates etc so can someone provide a simple step by step method? What about copyright protection - is it possible to copy feature film dvds anyway, must be way I suppose. Optimistic thanks in advance.

http://www.pocketgear.com/en_US/html/display_product.jsp?id=prod5790538
It converts to WMV so no need for DIVX.

Try reading some of these guides. www.videohelp.com is a great website full of guides.
If you want though there are programs out there that can directly do this for you and optimize it for mobile phone screens but i havent encountered any that are free. PocketDivxEncoder is useful if you already have avi movies that you want to re-encode into a more mobile friendly resolution and/or bitrate.
Hope this helps.
edit: Im assuming here that you want them in AVI's. You can play AVI's on a pocket pc with TCPMP. Google for it if you dont have it.

thank you for the link Slave1, had a look at the software, no mention of WM6 compatability - will it work, any idea?

thank you too for the link ga41. Will have a look see later when I'm not supposed to be working. (I'm self employed and my boss has work avoidance guilt issues.)

Try a converter named 'SUPER'...it converts video to any format and lets u control the frame rates,size etc....
For any other converter u already have :
1.] Start the converter software > open any video u want to convert (either drag and drop OR using File>Open>....)
2.] Adjust the settings for video conversion....for the kaiser, Size: 240 x 320 pixels,Frame rate : 30 fps,Format of video :H.264/MPEG 4/WMV (these r the basic settings,play around later for advanced settings)
3.] Press convert for the finished product and transfer it to ur Kaiser....Enjoy!!
[Copy right protection depends,if ur converter can load the video and convert it then i dun think there shoud b a problem....]

I doesn need to be WM 6 compatible....jus the encoded video should be supported by WM 6....H.263,H.264, MPEG4,WMV are supported formats for WM 6....if u want divx support try the player TCPMP....

i use (and can recomend) http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/mobiledvd/?en
with Core TCPMP player
Hope this helps

(barely)Working Flash lite on Nook Color Rooted

Ok, I hope i'm not regurgitating info, and if I am. Please kill this thread. But I was pretty sure i've been paying attention and no flash was working yet. I hijacked this info of of this thread : http://android.modaco.com/content/z...295/flashlite-working-with-stock-android-2-1/
so the credits not mine, BUT , I did install the .lib files, and then load the apk and guess what? Flash!! It doesn't seem to work in Dolphin, but it did load and work in the native browser. It's choppy, doesn't seem to look very good, but it's a start right?
Ok, so use root explorer to move .lib files to system/lib, then install the apk and voila. I've included a screen shot for proof of concept. Either way, it's in your hands now guys. I'm not even close to a dev, just a googler. I was thinking about how flashlite worked on other devices but not ours and figured there would maybe be dependencies we could move over, obviously someone else had already done the work for me on a seperate device.
EDIT: alright, this is weird. I probably should have done some more testing before I jumped the gun. (sorry, I was excited) Apparently I also installed another version of flash player prior to the instructions I posted. Nothing seems to work unless the lib files, and both versions of flash are installed. This can't be right, nor does it make sense, but i've tested both versions with the lib files and without each other and they don't work...so anyone else who cares to mess around installing different versions of flash with the lib files, maybe we can get better results. I've attached the other flash file I used below.

Pretty cool, I wonder what other browsers this works in. I'll have to give this a try, it'd be nice to watch some of the blog videos or such.

the guy in the other thread said it would work with xscope so i'm trying it now...i haven't found a site where I could get a video to load yet, but newgrounds did load a game (useless I know) ...

I just tried it in Opera Mobile, didn't seem to be working there (I went to the 'what's my flash version' site and nada)

It actually worked in dolphin. About as well as it did in the standard browser, choppy stuttery, newgrounds game, no sound. Seems like its trying to work with videos, but its just missing something.

This thread needs the attention of revs
Move to book devlopment maybe?

I actually started the thread in android development, and it was moved by a mod to general. I'm not sure i'd want to waste too much dev attention on something like this when I know they are close to finishing 2.2 and i've read gingerbread might be coming soon too with CM. Right now the only reason to use those apks on the original post is if you'd like to be able to see more ads on web pages than you were previously able to.

Nook Color can only play these video formats: 3GP, 3G2, MP4, M4V, and OGG. And supports MPEG-4 Simple Profile up to 854×480, H.263 up to 352×288, and H.264 Baseline profile up to 854×480. So if u want enjoy your video on Nook Color, u must convert video to these Nook Color compatible formats. I suggest u try XXXXXX , which can convert all format videos to Nook Color with the optimized format (MP4, H.264, 854×480).
U can try it, good luck!

Sorry all.... but dude every post you have on here is the same. I have to assume you work for the video converter you keep mentioning considering some of the posts you've replied to are stale and haven't bee touched since Dec.
Not sure what policy here is, so I'll leave it to the mod's. I'm new here myself but these types of posts are annoying. **EDIT** sorry, didn't' see the report button till after I replied. I've submitted for the mods.

I'm new to getting a NC and rooting it, but I'm interested in having flash on mine.
Have you guys experienced any problems with your NC after pushing this Flash on it?

[Q] How to recover/open a temp_video?

Yesterday, I was attending the UEFA Europa League Final and I was filming the starting ceremony.
I didn't know that I had a merely 1.6 GB left on my SD card. When the memory was full, the camera app did the unthinkable (FC). I entered a file manager and saw that the video is there under the name temp_video but without any extension.
Can you please tell me how can I recover it?

Nope, that doesn't do the trick cause, you know, the file is not finalized one way or the other by the phone itself.I guess I should edit the file somehow on the PC.

I have the same problem
I have a very important video (birth of my son) in this situation aswell. so if anybody success on this issue please let us know.

I haven't managed to open or recover them somehow. I guess there are no viable solutions for this issue.
Sorry.
PS: Still, keep the files. Who knows, maybe we will find out someday.

Thanks for reply i'll keep the files, but there must be a solution (

Various free video conversion software should do the trick. I've had success using the conversion feature of VideoLAN's VLC media player to 'convert' to .mp4; the video is full size, with sound, and at the original quality. The VLC media player could even play the temp_video file as-is, without any conversion...the conversion was only necessary to play with other players/to burn to DVD.
Hope this helps.

Found a utility that does the trick
I had the same problem. Some people claimed vlc would work, but it didn't. So I tried out this tool: http://grauonline.de/cmsimple2_6/en/?Solutions:HD_Video_Repair_Utility
It worked when I gave it a reference video (video shot from the same phone), but it only saves half the video unless you buy the license. After watching the video, I determined that I don't need the second half for the price they ask (29 euros), but at least I got half. If the author would only charge say $5 per video I'd probably buy it. In lieu of that, I simply joined the file together to create one file twice as long and re-ran it. In windows "copy /b file + file combined_file". This worked as a stop-gap, but the sound got really off at the midpoint. So, if you really want it to work right, I'd suggest paying for the license.
Credit to this person for pointing me to the tool.

You can try to repair it with the vid repair tool on android playstore it did the trick for me. I recovered full video. It was there with the name temp_video now i can play it well. Hope this works. :angel:

Hey i just found a quick solution to that problem which worked on me ! first you need media player classic ... open it and just drag your temp_video and it should be working fine

DId you bought programm and got better result with or without added longer file? Cause for me full version got and maybe thats all there is to get- all ok but video or sound is going at different speed. So just readjust that in video edit programm. Also in options can select to divide files in seperate audio and video files and then combine changing speed only for video in video editing sofware.

Recovering the temp_video file
Dear all,
i know it is odd to response to a "long time ago" post, but i wish that this may help people who are facing similar problem.
I have just tried the app from the Google Play, MP4fix.
It requires the corrupted file, temp_video and a well-recorded file, i am not sure is it better to be a similar length for the well-recorded?
After processing, you can freely play the recovered file or paid to save the file.
Which means you can use another phone to Rexxxx while the phone is pXXXing the video.
However, it is better to pay for the developers who make this app.

VLC Works as of This Writing
I had this problem. Went looking for a solution and found this article mentioning VLC. On a Galaxy Tab A (purchased new in late 2017), VLC was indeed able to play it as-is. Renaming the file with the mp4 extension (no conversion) meant that even the Samsung Video Player could play it. Maybe Samsung improved the readability of the temp files.

I got the fix
I know this is 7 years later, but I just got this problem and got an actual fix for it. Go to your file manager and click on DCIM then on Camera then scroll all the way to the bottom and press and hold on your temp video and press share. Share it to your google drive and then once its on your Google drive, you can download it if you want to back on your device. Worked on my s7, hope it works for yall

HOW TO: AC3 Sound For Gear VR

Guide (need root):
1. Put the file media_codecs.xml in the folder system/etc
2. Put the files libsac3d.so & libsomxac3d.so in the folder system/lib
3. Set permissions to all 3 files: 0644 (owner: root/root)
4. Reboot
Thanks to: Pako777 & Bodivas & MasterElwood @ Oculus Forum
Download HERE
- Tested: Relinked to correct codecs.xml file. (the wrong codecs.xml will cause major lag) Now works great with no lag even with 10 gig Imax 3D files.
.

Wow. Thank you. I can now play mkv files with Samsung default video player WITH sound!!!

What bit rate did you end up using for AC3 to work on the native player? I re-encoded a mkv- dts file I had into mp4 with ac3 that has a bitrate of 448k and it only worked on MX player. I know AC3 is at least working on the native player now as I downloaded a test file that someone created that was a MKV with AC3 384k bitrate. I'm trying to figure out if bitrate is a issue or if its because I'm using mp4 with AC3.
Looks like I found the answer to my question as I just finished re-encoding my file to MKV-AC3, seems like the native player doesn't like mp4 with ac3, but mkv with ac3 works perfect even with higher bitrate of 448k.

Update: This media_codecs.xml is causing WatchEspn and NBC Live Extra to not display video. It did not appear to come from Note 4.
If you want AC3 audio without messing up WatchEspn and NBC Live Extra (and maybe some other apps), you are better off modifying your own media_codecs.xml file from Note 4 by adding the following codes
<MediaCodec type="audio/ac3" name="OMX.SEC.ac3.dec">
<Quirk name="needs-flush-before-disable"/>
<Quirk name="decoder-ignores-streamcorrupt-error"/>
</MediaCodec>
within the "<Decoders>" section.

I have a problem because in my case nothing happens after all steps after reboot files from system/lib disappears.

You know it's Lollipop, right? I only ask since you posted the same typo in the Oculus forums.
Anything involving libraries is going to be specific to the individual Android version. To update it, you would need the matching files made for Lollipop, and then simply port the changes to the xml over to the matching file from a Lollipop ROM.

sorry, my enghish is bad

Perhaps also of some importance - this is Snapdragon-only and is not compatible with Exynos devices.
Had to learn the hard way, recording will stop working, as well as virtually all video playback.

You can just add in the ac3 mediacodec-part into the media_codecs.xlm of the exynos on 4.4.4 and it will work (doesn't unfortunately work on Lollipop).

It doesn't? Maybe it works on lillipop then?
</joke>
Joke aside, I did that, figured the first time was some sort of fluke so I went over it again, not overwriting but actually editing the file, then made sure chmods were properly set. It resulted in 90% video being unplayable and camera crashing whenever you would record video. Today I upgraded to lilipop (heh) so I am no longer test out your file.
I appreciate the help though, perhaps it helps another, who has not upgraded.

interestingly, after converting the sound of some movies with VLC (leaving video alone, only converting the sound to mp3), these movies only play in the void cinema, when before they played everywhere (only with no sound).
one would think this shouldnt happen when you dont reencode the video part of the file in any way, but it did. i know this has been discussed before, but scanning through previous threads it seems like nobody has found the problem (or workaround) for this so far?

Have no issues when converting movie's with dts/ac3 into mkvs with aac (work fine in Oculus Cinema). Are you sure you put them in the correct folder? /Oculus/Movies/My Videos or ../3D?

i use Oculus/Movies/My Videos/3D, which i read is supposed to be the correct path? i also tried the trailer folder just for the fun of it, same thing, movie plays fine, but the version with the reencoded audio will only play in the void theatre.
the one difference i can see is that you used aac audio where i used mp3. maybe for some reason that does make a difference. will definetly try using aac instead next time.
even though its unlikely, just to eliminate another potential parameter: could you tell me what bitrate you used for the audio reencode? so far ive always used 192.
and do you use mp4 as container or mkv? mkv seems to not be included with VLC by default, so ive used mp4 so far. unlikely as it may be, maybe that also can play a role here...

Container shouldn't matter (used both and both work). Try moving your files from the 3D folder (which is for 3d movies only) to the my movies folder instead (if they aren't 3D), just to see if it would work.
Bitrate also does not matter - used everything from 96-320 and everything plays fine.

Filename suffixes in caps

New Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 user . . . question: why does the tablet's OS see a difference between media files that have their file type suffixes in capital letters rather that lower case? My tablet can play self loaded media that has lower case file suffixes, such as filenameX.mp4, but if the same filename has its suffix in caps, I get an error message stating the file type is not supported, i.e., filenameX.MP4 will not play, while filenameX.mp4 will. Same with other file types such as pdf's; filenameY.pdf will work fine; filenameY.PDF produces an error.

I can't say why but I;ve had the same issue - a video with MKV won't play but mkv will (when renamed).
I also not that finding a file manager that doesn't hide the damn extension is hard!

Fluffbutt I'd like to see the video you posted in your response, however, the popups and ads simply won't allow. Can you perhaps post a shortened ur? Back to my question, it's less a 'why' and more of a validation effort. My background is in Apple's iOs / MacOS and this is a 'forced' migration to Google's Android OS device. So, I guess what I'm looking for is some kind of confirmation that what I'm seeing is just the way it is in Samsung world - no capitalized filename extensions. Thank you for your time.

Umm - I didn't post an url. Honest, nothing... I don't even know if I have the video any more (and, even if I did I doubt XDA would want a link posted.. *cough* "downloaded video".)
If you're on windows you might have virus... if on tablet/phone it's a browser advert?
It might be a function of how the players "see" the files - when they were written the developer set ".mkv" and ".mp4" as playable files but didn't think to do ".MKV" and ".MP4".

Case-sensitivity in filenames (and extensions) is typical of Linux. Since Android is Linux-based, I would guess that's the underlying issue. And yes, it's short-sighted of developers to not account for this. Renaming the files is the quickest/easiest workaround.
