I am sort of dissappointed about the 720p playback of G300. I've got a 3,5mb bitrate video (GoT episode) and it's virtually unwatchable with MX player. Is there a way to watch it without the need to decode the MKV?

What class SD card are you using? I have had no issue but for decent HD playback you need class 4.

It's an old Class 2 card. I'm going to try to copy the movie to the internal memory.

EDIT: Nah, It's the same from the internal memory.

isnt the g300 800x400 pix

thats 320 pixels over kill with a 720p film

480p would be over kill....

just use a 480 p video should run smooth too

Of course I could do that but that would require recoding or redownloading the video. My goal was to avoid that and simply use the movies I've downloaded before.

you could batch encode all of your videos into 480p....

720p wont show on a 480p screen maybe theres a way to down grade the pix ratio within a media player.
