Please try this if you are suffering problems with video playback on your Kaiser (NOT VIDEO GAMES).
Go to the OFFICIAL DivX website and download the latest full package. Try out the DivX converter using the setting 'Mobile' (you can try it for a period then if you like it you can then purchase it).
This device has its faults but if you are not prepared to work around this you should not post on this developers site!
I can play any movie file over WiFi from my WLHDD2.5 in perfect rendition (for a PDA) after doing this with the basic TCPMP set to GDI playback.
JUST GIVE IT A TRY, you have nothing to lose!!!
EDIT..Use the .81 version of TCPMP if you can get it, buffer processing is faster.

Again, we all know we can view videos at a good speed after having converted them. But our Kaiser should read them with no conversion at all.
We have enough solutions to convert videos, thanks for this one, but it is just one more ...

One would like to ask where it is said that Windows Mobile plays un-converted files??? It is primarily designed to sync via Windows media player.(as is the iSpudge with its PC software)..All other video playback is user selected and not fully supported. No lawsuit here I'm afraid...
OH, and BTW, did you selectively miss this in the first post???

No, I am stuck here with TCPMP until I get back to UK to purchase the new Coreplayer as my cred card wont work from the UAE online.
I am just trying to pass on any workarounds I find to others. I expect a massive factor of improvement when I get it but anything before that will also help others.
ah....massive improvement huh
is coreplayer really that good?
really wish to try it, only if i no need to pay 1st
but then the divx convertor is really easy to use, just that it takes time to convert

Yep, it does!! But has patience been lost? We are developers... Not miracle workers.. Even iTunes takes full control of the other type of unit (COMPLETELY!) to convert...I think the fact we still have a factor of control on our devices to CHOOSE is befuddling people... If it was all fully auto then XDA would no longer exist!!!
ahh....hehe, good good
well...maybe coz i am converting prison break and stuff which is quite big in file....hehe
thanks all again

Video??? I can't even get WMP to sync more than 30 songs before dropping the connection. It took me 5 nights of sitting there reconnecting every 90 minutes or so just to get 4GB of music synced up. I have to say, this is one job the iPhone handles WAY, WAY, WAY better. The whole MS thing is just sad and disappointing.
It's funny that everyone talks about how it is nice to be able to install 3rd party apps to make your device better. Yes, you can not yet install 3rd party apps on the iPhone, but the biggest point is, in many case you don't need to. The browser works great, chat works great, music playback works great, video playback works great, google maps work great, email works great, etc....
My suggestion for video on the Kaiser is, don't waste your time with it. I have wasted 10s of hours trying and it is just not worth it. I have tried 6 different encoders including DivX, Pocket Divx, Handbrake, 4 different file types and countless bitrates, framerates and codecs.
tbh,i would really wanted an iphone but there are some major flaw that why i din buy it although its my dream phone
1st, its not available in my place officially(only can get cracked version), no 3g, no mms,can edit word,excel and blah blah
and although i dont knw will i face the same problem when i am syncing songs, as i haven try yet
but no, you dont need to waste 10hours to get ur kaiser to play video
just downlaod tctm, install it in kaiser
download divx, convert it as the 1st post says so, then upload to ur device...done
less then 30minutes all done

Many thanks..

I know this topic has been covered extensively (see here), but all applications which provide help to the user are welcome.
A freeware alternative is available, too, which you may be interested in (and requires a bit of tweaking for us tech-inclined): http://www.pocketdivxencoder.net/

I am so sorry for your loss. My mother had breast cancer year before last, and my grandmother before her. It's great to know, though, that our children may have no need to worry about such a devastating disease with the research our generations are putting into this area. God bless you, Farsquidge!

I use a product called "Wondershare DVD Ripper Suite" (has a ripper and a converter) and it has a nice batch feature as well. I have also had success with "SPB DVD" and "DVD to PocketPC" by a company called Makayama. "Ashampoo Shrink and Burn 3" does fine for me as well. Also, I have noticed that Windows Media Player performs some type of conversion/compression when syncing. For example, "Star Wars 3" is a 855 MB WMV file, but when I synced it to my device it was only 359 MB. However, when I transferred the original 855 MB file to my storage card using a card reader it was still 855 MB - what is Windows Media Player doing besides syncing?

It is probably doing its best to convert a video file (of which there are MANY formats) to the preferred WM AVI PDA format. If you do not have the corresponding CODEC in your PC WM player it will not even try..Everyone has to try to standardise their media format for the player designate. If you expect the file you have on your PC/Laptop to play the same on your portable device 100% without conversion then I am afraid you are living in cloud cuckoo land! The processor speed and video codecs are radically different for WM devices against full Windows machines. (irrespective of any driver omission before anyone starts!!)
Aspect Ratio is not only for screen playback... it is for what you expect from your device....
Hi,
What is the best video converter, which can convert DVDs. And also which has a time required indicator. Any ideas???
Thanks
i'd say that very much come down to what you wish to convert dvds into
Oh sorry, i meant to convert it to play in my wizard, probably wmv or avi, with good quality.
Go for DVD Catalyst, work perfect, and you can try it out for a few rips, and I think there is even a free version too. I had tried a few others, like Spb's app, but it had problems, like no audio in the end result.
But, currently I'm in the process of ripping my collection. Not to mention, there are tons of settings and features, more than any other app I've tried, only about $20.
DVD Catalyst GT
Nice app to RIP videos and dvds but dont support vcd...
But also you can try the SPB mobile DVD nice app too. and it lets you to chose one piece of the entire DVD!!! amazing isnt it?
MEncoder is a great app that is free. I must tell you though if your looking for something that is brainless this is not the application to use. However in my opinion it is the best app for video conversion.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MEncoder
I use Total Video Converter. TVC. It's not free, but it's pretty cheap and gets the job done easily
I use DvDFab Platinum+Moblie; perfect 1:1 copies (erm i mean backups) disregarding for what the protection is on the dvd (CSS, RipGuard, SecuROM SafeDisc (version 3), Sony ARccOS, TAGES)
I like it b/c of above (obviously ) but also b/c you can chose to remove any part of the movie, unwanted audio channels, menus, previews etc.
Has preset and quality options to convert for devices, ie WM, zune, ipod, psp, nds, etc..
About €70/$90.

I use Allok works great
DivX is one the most popular format for videos for computers, but only one app (yxplayer)will play them. It cost $20, and doesn't work anymore. It worked in 1.5, but after a few rom flashes on my part and updates on their part, it would freeze the video randomly. If there is a way I could pull the apk from one of my old nands, when it was still xyplayer, it might work.

An awesome conversion program, then use mVideoplayer from the market. It remembers your brightness setting for watching movies, the position you were in the movie if you tab out to do something else and come back, you'll be ready to pick up right where you were. Even has srt/sub title support for those like myself who watch subbed anime on the go.
Terrific player + handbrake makes crunching movies down into the correct file type and size (480x320) a cinch.
i was hoping someone would ask that question. Try the videoplayer.apk from the droidx
what does that play.

Thanks, I will try converting some podcasts with those specs in HandBrake and see how it comes out playing in DoubleTwist. I feel like you can't put the Hero through too much before it will start to become way too laggy or something.... haha
I love this phone more than the iPhone but I just give up on uploading movies. I can upload music with no problem but movies forget it. I'm using handbrake and I get the same result: sound good....but video scrambled and choppy. I have followed the post on how to upload videos using handbrake but I'm having no luck with it. Any ideas???
very strange man, i also followed them as the guy instructed, but for me the playback is amazing.
Yeah that's strange. I have Total Recall , lord of the rings , and pulp fiction all look and run perfect. All made with hand brake.

Test it on your computer first, if the video is still messed up then it's an encoding error.
Personally, I think DVDFab's ease of use makes it a better alternative to handbrake. DVD and BluRay decryption is built in, and in one click I can have it Rip a movie to iPhone format. I use one more click to change screen size for captivate - but this doesn't really have to be done. They update this app regularly - i bought the platinum edition long ago, and it has not failed me.
Give Rockplayer a try to see if you have better results as far as playback goes.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
I will try a different movie and see if that works. Just Samsung would make a program for the phone that makes this an easier job to do. This is the only draw back to this phone, most people dont have the time or skills to do this. Just my 2 cents.
Pardon my arrogance, but it appears as though you're trying too hard. I drag and drop my mp4 movies from my laptop to my Captivate with Windows Explorer. They work like a champ.

DVDFab is as easy as it gets and they have a 15 day trial - put your disk in, say DVD to Mobile; pick iPhone and you are done. No phone manufacturer makes a tool for ripping DVDs - mainly because it violates the DMCA in the US.
If you want an iTunes like solution, then in a few days you can buy your shows via the Samsung mediahub. Point and Click.
What is a good paid/free DVD Ripper that I can use?? I got one long time ago called 123CopyDVD but it seems like it doesnt work with new releases these days. I think I got it around 2005. Thanks for any recommendations.

Thanks guys, I have tried handbrake before and it wouldnt do copyright protection. Alcohold 120% has copyright protection too. Thank you LoopDogg, both of those worked perectly. AnyDVD copied all the files perfectly. Just gotta see how to convert those .vob to my girls phone or whatever she wants them on. i am using the clonedvd as i type and it let me choose a format type which has samsung phone (any android) will report on that after it finishes. about 1hr left now.

Indeed. Excellent software. Does all kinds of stuff.
Question, when converting .vob to any other format, it loses quality right? I love AnyDVD, copy entire DVD by-passes protection and when I play it through my laptop to my TV, quality is perfect, well because it plays the .vob files. But after converting to divx, mpeg4, or one other format i cant remember, quality is lose even if screen size is set to bigger, or quality output is raised, it still loses quality. Just dont know what options to choose to keep a good quality image. Mostly gonna be used for my girls phone and laptop to TV. Thank you.
Also, Ive chosen Android or Samsung Android phones format and quality is lose. Quality lose is normal?? Ive never really ripped a DVD, the first program I got, 123copyDVD was stupid. never did its thing and couldnt pass copyright protection.. even after I bought it and all.
I believe only an MKV with AC3+ and DTS won't affect the audio... Streaming an .mkv can be a headache...
I still use DVD fab, and I use plex to stream them.

Quite easily. That is what scientists do all the time - "the collecting of information about a particular subject". If you don't know something then you research to try and learn more or find out what you don't know.
