video encoding for Motorola SLVR

Hi there,

Had anybody had any experience encoding video
onto a Motoorla SLVR? I use Pinnacle Studio 10
to encode my video into a resolution that's
lower than the screen (176x220) in mpeg4. I
thought it should be able to play, but it
doesn't. I then tried my Motorola Phone Tool,
which includes some kind of encoding. It
worked, but the encoded video is only a small
fraction of the screen size, making the video
not viewable at all.

Any help/advises appreciated.

This is going to sound really strange, but here it is:

Nokia has a tool to convert video to a format that Nokia and Motorola phones can use.

I have also used this format with some Samsung handsets as well.

I've used it with my ROKR, and have sent the videos on it via BT to both the L6 and L7 SLVR's, with no ill effects.

Here's the link:

HI there,

Thanks for the link. I've tried it out. Strangely it worked on the video side but not on the autio side, i.e., the software converted my mpeg2 file to 3gp without sound. The converted video looks good but the clip is quiet. Do you have any idea why? I checked all the buttons/options that I could see but didn't find anything related to the problem.

Also, FYI, through a different channel I learned that this software also works (but it's not free, although there's a free trial with limited length on the video):

Thanks again.
