video file errors
So far this phone seems to be pretty picky about video mp4/3g2 files. So far I've found that even with the 320x240 display there is no way it will play videos with this resolution, it slows to about .5-1 fps. Then, any videos in mp4 format and 176x144 resolution are not expanded to the full frame, but with black boarders. However, using the same encoding program and nearly identical settings, the same in 3g2/3gp @ 176x144 WILL zoom to 320x240, BUT the sound is crap. Truely strange. All the encoding is done offline with various progs, but this is the result. Anyone have any success with encoding videos the play full frame and with good sound? What app and settings did you use?

I use WinAVI MP4 Converter. It does 3gp conversions too. After I select the video I want converted, I have the option of setting Video and Audio bitrate.
As an example, I put south park episodes on my phone. They start as 174mb Xvid files ripped from my cable box. After I send them through the converter with a modest video bit rate (192kbps), the file is a 40mb 3gp, which looks and sounds pretty damn nice on my phone.
