[Guest Rothariger]

Hello,

[Guest hiperjp]

[Guest Rothariger]

Thanks

Coreplayer with O2 is the best combination, i never put large video files (Tv Series/porn - those that doesnt require 5.1 sound) anymore in my phone, just connect O2 to the network computer via wifi, play the file with coreplayer that connected to TV and watch it in full wide screen. You can also charge the phone at the same time unlike O1.

what about subtitles?

My experience (some months ago, dunno if there is something new now) is that to enable Subtitle display you need to change the default video driver (which it works very well) to another video driver (which allows subs but is really laggy, for me not worth to see a movie like that)

[Guest Rothariger]

yeah i got that problem with tcpmp, but i was thinking that may be the coreplayer does it better...

i dont understand why the media player doesnt show the subs at the TV...

Don't know... I guess it depends on the strange sub format used:(

no it doesnt, the only subs allowed are SMI... and they are not showed on screen... you could see it in the pda, but in the TV dont...

I mean, i think it behave like that couse Samsung Movie player use a "strange" (not very common) subtitle file (SMI)

actually SMI is the dominant subtitle format in korea, vs the srt or sub use in the rest of the world...

[Guest Rothariger]

does anyone get any improvement with this?

[Guest jacobgong]

i have no idea why would you want to use the TV out feature.......

[Guest NikAhmad]

Coreplayer with version 1.3.6 yes but Coreplayer with version 1.3.1 (snapdragon TG 01) cannot. Another thing TV out still cannot support landscape. Sorry i mean can see the movie through tv and not the sub tittle. For DVD user required the subtitle they can try AnyDVD for rip and Pocket Divx Encoder to reduce the size. Tqvm

In CorePlayer, Set your video output to Raw FrameBuffer

DirectDraw will not work.

(and GDI is too slow)

the thing is that i must to rip all again, i have the subs separated from the video file.. :(

Please go away. You are nothing more than an annoyance around here.

Mods, can we get this guy banned? I think he's had more than enough of a chance to be a positive, contributing member here, and he's failed. Utterly.

Really? That's a shame, but a viable workaroud.

For viewing on the phone itself, the best config is DirectDraw, set to "Overlay with colorkey" checked, the other two DD options unchecked, and the overlay format "Auto".

This results in the smoothest, no-dropped-frames playback -- best performing playback. I can smoothly play video that I've transcoded to 800x450 widescreen video, Xvid, high quality. CorePlayer does fine with this. TouchPlayer can't play it (nothing wider than DVD specs -- 720).

Any other video out config drops frames.

I suppose it makes sense that the overlay doesn't work for the TV out... video overlay is a hardware characteristic, something provided and managed by the video chip, and usually isn't a part of simple NTSC/PAL output. So, the video would need to be written to the main videobuffer to be seen by the NTSC/PAL conversion stage.

Hey gang -- as for cables, do I need some special one? Or will any old standard 3.5mm to 3-way RCA A/V cable, like those that come with portable DVD players, do?
