[Q] Which video conversion app do you use for Note?

Hey guys,
Recently got a note but cannot find a decent video conversion app. What is the size I should convert the video files into? any reccomendations for mac/windows?
Cheers!
Don't have any answer for the question but with mx video player, you won't need to convert probably.
Just use Handbrake which converts to MP4 - you can change the settings to get better quality or smaller file. I've been using this program for all of my phones...perfect so far!!
To play on the Note, MX Videoplayer is your friend!
Unless the file size is larger than 3.9Gb I dont convert it anymore, I use Handbreak to convert it to 3.9Gb but for HD movie sources that are 15-20GB I split convert them into 3x 3.9Gb files to preserve the quality and just delete it after viewing.
For info, here is the link : http://handbrake.fr/
Thanks, I know of handbrake and will try it. Will give MX a go too without converting. Thank you all.
If you're quite technical and/or somewhat of a videophile (as I am!) then I'd recommend giving Mediacoder a try too.
Mediacoder lets your configure a lot more options than Handbrake, but it has a terrible GUI so is a lot more difficult to use.
Moboplayer plays everything. No need to convert.

+1 for moboplayer. Never converted anything

Mxvideo player is the best and if you have big files just use mkvtoolnix (PC app), no reencoding, just split the file in 2 or more mkvs (under 4GB) !
BS player
Plays everything and smoother than MX with my HTC HD2 ICS

[Q] Best Movie Converter for the Note?

Anyone know a good movie converter. I have some .MKV files and would like a program that would convert them to whatever the note uses for HD movie viewing. Thanks.
Any Video Converter Pro.
I'm using it to convert videos, clarity is pretty fine, give it a try.

One question - i've downloaded a trailer, which is around 850mb. It is 1080p, but i guess i with higher bitrate, because it is with normal length - the normal size would be around 250-400mb.
The point is - do we have any constrains here?

ntfs can't support by g-note.
I'm trying to transfer some bluray movies over to my note. Is there free software that I'll be able to to use to help me accomplish this?
I prefer a free version but a paid version will do as long as it's not complicated to use. Any recommendations would be appreciated.
MPEG streamclip for Mac. I encode DVD rips to 1080 p mp4 and they play and look awesome!

I do not know what the actual max. bitrate for Mali 400 is, but it does handle both 1080p baseline-profile and 1080p high-profile 4.1 just fine. The maximum bitrate seems to be quite high as everything I've thrown at my own Note has played just fine and most of my files have quite high bitrate, including the 1080p HP version of Sintel.
Samsung doesn't make available all the details of the Exynos chip -- the most important stuff is under NDA -- so the only way to determine the maximum bitrate would be to test it manually, and that could take a good while.
You could try Handbrake. It is one of the more versatile video converters out there, but playing with the video output settings can be a pain the first time.

I have made a thread about Handbrake for the Iconia Tab A500 and included several premade presets there, too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1184002
If you are going to be watching on the Note's own, small screen I would suggest picking the high-profile 720p preset and lowering the quality-slider a bit as you won't see the difference anyways, but if you're going to use the Note connected via HDMI to a larger screen then the 1080p high-profile preset as-is would be better.
I would go MPEG streamclip over handbrake that's just me. Read it handles mp4 better which is recommended for the note.

I can't play MKV movies.
Where do you put your movies? In- or external SD card?
And how do you copy these films? Do you put the external SD card in your computer or via usb mass-storage?
I hope you can help me so I can watch mkv movies on my note.
By the way I am on ICS LPY custom ROM: RocketRom V4 with Speedmod kernel.

Flashing Movies and How?

I need to know the best way and what people use, I'm using the latest MobyPlayer plus UTorrent but for some reason after it downloads and I go to play it back it says your device player isn't capable? If anyone could walk me through this or give a good link that would be great also used MXPlayer

i haven't had any problems with nay movies/videos...
Using MX video player (the free version) & it seems to play almost anything i want.
I think maybe cuz I don't have 1.7gb available but are all movies that large

Maybe the player is telling you that it can't use HW decoding for video???
Sometimes using MXvideoplayer is uses SW decode, but as long as i'm not watching a hd movies it's ok.
It's a problem when you try to watch a 720p movies without using HW decoding..
It plays laggy; but generally it's a question of avi's codec that aren't decoded by our cpu..
Download qqplayer and everything will be fine.

Flashing Movies and How? Am I the only one who doesn't know what a flashing movie is?
Surely you must know if you have enough drive space to copy a movie across.
I use MXplayer to play vids. Works flawlessly even when the phones got tTorrent running which is extremely taxing. I rarely use the phone to watch movies besides on extended bathroom visits. Usually stream them to WDlive player using Twonky mobile if I couldn't be bothered copying them over. (All free versions btw)
@itsbeertimenow I tried qqplayer and was out of sync on mkv's.

Hiya,I get can't play video,the strange thing is I have 3 other videos I put on ages ago one is an avi,the other two are mp4 and they play fine. I've tried to replicate there format by reencoding using same settings such as frame rate bitrate ect but still no joy. I'm using imtoo ultimate to encode
Sent from GT-19000 CM 10.1. stable
Right. CM10.1 (in fact all ICS/JB builds) don't support .avis by default (not entirely sure why). Have you tried alternative video apps (and codecs if you need them)? When I used JB roms using other apps played my .avis fine...
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk HD
I've used the default video player and mxplayer and vlc. What confuses me more is like I said I do have some videos on my phone already which play in all 3,Avi's and mp4. Can u recommend any good encoders at the moment I use I too video ultimate. Having tried any other but there so many. Thanks for your help by the way.
