I have the motorola MPx220 and when i put a movie on the phone and wanna watch it i can't. I comes up all super choppy. Is there a way to make my phone read the video faster or do i have to make the movie a certain format?
Changing phones may be a bit extreme. Are you just copying a WMV that plays fine on the PC to your MPX? Or are you using somethong like Windows Media Encoder to cut the video down to something more suitable to the screen size, memory, and power of the phone?
just taking a guess but i think the problem is that youre copying the movie over to your phone without resizing it or reencoding it. any smartphone out there will not have a screen big enough to watch a regular resolution movie. its best to reencode the file to a smaller resolution that works best with your phone (220x176).
also if it is a standard resolution movie the phone wouldnt be powerful enough to veiw it. a standard xvid movie on the internet has a resoultion of 5**x3** to make it 16x9 aspect ratio and is usually encoded anywhere from 600-1200kbps as the bitrate. this would explain the choppiness.
try encoding the video in pocketdivx. that should help.
