DRIOD X Video Profiles?

[cg5000]

FYI - Ive opened an analyzed a native video shot with the X in Adobe Bridge. Heres what the Droid X does with the video...maybe that will help us in creating a DVD Fab Video that can be loaded to the Droid X.

3GP File (never heard of this format)
1280x720
Audio 96kbps 1 channel mono 44.1 khz
VBR, 1 Pass, Target 1.50Mbps (2.00 Maxx)
Data Rate 8014 kbps
23 frames per second

Note: After multiple failures with multiple blue ray converstions, I honestly feel that its not the Droid thats having the problem with the video, its DVDFab. Since the droid can play up to the resolutions above, and I used DVDfab to cut an 854x480 (Droid X native res) it seems DVDFab just cant make it happen? Also, due to the misynced audio....

thoughts?

Thanks Signals...looking forward to a second opinion from a user of the device.

Ive tried MANY different profiles using blueray to mobile....bluray to bluray then to mobile....800 mb/ps, just sterio audio....etc....all choppy.

The latest one I did the audio was WAY out of sync.

I will have a Droid X this week and will be working on a profile for it. I will post it in the New Profiles thread when it is done.

Well, the distinct lack of interest shown on this forum for the Droid X shows how popular it is for what you are attempting to do.

As general comments on this class of device, there are quite a few factors that will affect the "choppiness". Everytime you increase resolution. bitrate, etc, it adds to the amount of throughput required and it could be something just as simple as a slow memory card.

You are going to have to do this yourself and this is the way I would go about it.

start with a known working profile and I understand that you have this with Droid Classic profile and just encode a few chapters and copy it to the internal memory, not the memory card and see if it plays smoothly.

Then increase the resolution and see the result.
Then increase the bitrate and see the result.
Then copy it to the memory card and see the result.

If you start getting "choppiness" at any point, you will now know your bottleneck.

Any good profile is usually a compromise between all the parameters and has a lot of permutations & compinations to try.

Sample vid is MIA. Cant seem to get vids to convert over to DroiD x at all using the DVD Fab software. Choppy conversions at best.

Did it come with a sample video on it? if so off load it and see what it is made of.

Hey everybody - still looking for good profiles for the Droid X - can any body help? Having great difficulty getting this device to stream vids...bit rates? frame rates? res? Thanks!

[cg5000]

Guys - Been fiddling around with this for about a week now....still not able to get video to playback smothly on the droid X - tried the regular Droid profile and been tweaking that from there. Any ideas?

[GregiBoy]

Well, change them and see!

Don't change the framerate for a start but play around with the bitrate and the resolution.

[cg5000]

Thats a start - but that setting is configged to 720x400, and only 23.967 fps? I think the Drid X can handle a bit more. Really wanna see what this thing is made of

[jdbower]

The X's resolution is 854x480, beyond that I've been using the (with minor tweaks) to create MP4s that play just fine.

Hey guys,

Anybody have good settings for high quality video playback in the DROID X?

Looking for both the DVD to mobile profile and the Blu-Ray to Mobile profiles.

Please specify framerate, bitrate, resolution, and audio bitrate, etc.

I appreciate your input!
