The maximum Ive used is 150 in mp4, I dont specify in smart movie because i use the 3ivx codec and select consistant quality at about 85% for films on the 512 MS. I usually get good results.

Do you have smartmovie?. If so go to

Check out the SERchive website and go to Esato Backup and try out some films.

Damn you reply fast!

Well yes i have smartmovie it's what i use for the conversions.

Do you believe mp4 are better?I've tried mpegable but i found the results worse than smartmovie!Though the aac sound in the videos was clear as a crystal.

Another question.How can i use a vdub settings file?I have a .vcf and when i open it in vdub it says something like "the object stream has already been created you can't set stream bla bla..."

I don't know much about VDub, Syntax, Chemos or Nickrooster know more about that. I prefer avi to mp4, although Chemos makes some prety good mp4's you might want to check out. As for mono over stereo sound, its just to reduce file size, also some people watch films using loud speaker, in which case the stereo is a little pointless.

Ok thanx man.

@Syntax

Do you know what's wrong with loading the vcf settings in my case?

Also about your method,why should i uncompress video and sound?Not only it will take long but i will also create a huge file in my hard drive right?

Now about uncompressing all i do is selecting no compressing in video and audio in vdubmod and then save as avi right?

Also why did you choose 3ivx?I tried it but i didn't have video neither on my pc nor in the mobile.I have the k-lite codecs of course installed.

And you also say to use 15-25 kbps and 112bitrate.How can i do that?where do i choose to set the 15-25?kbps and bitrate ain't the same thing?

I would really appreciate your help.

hi. i convert movies using smartmovie also. some movies, especially large ones, when i play it in portrait mode, it's smooth and there's no problem. but when i play it in landscape mode, the video's always choppy.

any suggestions on how to fix this?

thanks!

@MadBob

you use 3ivx too right?Why isn't there any video when i encode it as 3ivx on smartmovie?

I have the k-lite codec pack,and when i encode a movie in 3ivx it has only sound both in pc and the mobile,why's that?

Also is 3ivx newer than xvid?Does it have anything to do with divx 3?

No.

If you're dealing with non native mpeg formats, like quicktime and realmedia, its best to uncompress a video file before encoding it as it'll be easier to work with and smartmovie will render it out easier with less chances of tearing etc.

In the 'Compression...' pop up select uncompressed.

I just like its options, the technology and its results.

Thats odd, try reinstalling it and using the default settings. Failing that try using the FFDshow codecs.

These options are in the actual 3ivx's codec settings itself, which are should be found where ever you can choose 3ivx.
