Default Media player 10 "Sync to device" change screen re

I use "sync to device" in media center & media player 10 to send my recently recorded programs to my phone (v1240 with pocket media player 10)

I get the files across perfectly.

But the resolution is wrong!!

Grrr it converts to 160 x 90 when my phone can handle 240 x 320, so I get big black boarders.

Do you know how to change the settings?

Not sure. I don't know that WMP10 is aware of the new higher res smartphones. Might be worth installing WMP11 and see if that changes anything. I hear it's got a greatly improved sync.

Fair enough. I don't think I would install it on my MCE either. Hope someone else has some suggestions for you.

Hi Mike

For the record WMP 11 Beta works like a dream and converts to 320 x 176.

That looks great on my phone.

Now do I upgrade MY MCE :-) you know I want to

Hey Cool :!:

I don't know that I would upgrade MCE just yet. I would be afriad of something going wrong. Then again, my MCE is connected to my primary TV. If it goes down, my wfie would kill me.

Oh, now you've got me wanting to upgrade my MCE. Not good. This is not good. I fear death if something goes wrong and all the videos and TV get destroyed. :2gunfire:

Backup.

You can't call yourself a true geek unless you trash your system with beta releases. :P
