hi, i have the latest version of m3 installed, with the net framework and codecs but have problems when i try to convert a dvd for my k800, it starts and then gives me a VOB error. i first believed it to be cos it was an alpha copy of the program, but a friend has installedit on his pc and it works fine. the only difference is that he's on an earlier version ofm3, but when i have that version oni can't even selct the dvd option.
please can someone help me? |

Not particularly..most movies are around 700 - 800 mb in size...and after conversion, 200 - 300 mb with m3, depending on phone of course. |

Try this one instead

(latest version)
don't forget to install .net framework 2

Help anyone! I have a sony ericsson k800i and i have converted music videos into mp4 format (i choose to use this format rather than 3gp because of better quality and sound) using SUPER. The settings I use are: output container: MP4, output vid coded: MPEG4, output audio codec: AAC, 320x240, 1:1, 15 frame/sec, 240 bitrate video, 22050 freq to 1 channel, 64 bitrate audio. I usually get my music vids from youtube, then use keepvid to get the flv file. Then i convert to mp4 using these settings on SUPER.
However, the problem is when i view the resultant mp4's although they are generally good quality, some parts are 'sketchy' (ie. pixellated blocks appear in some frames of the video). Can someone please advise me on how to get optimum (as clear and as smooth video quality as possible) video quality on the k800i?

Hi hampad,
From what I can see on the SE website the w850 has the same screen as k800i
so I would use either w900(ProDuo) or k800i settings,
the only difference with the w900 setting is that it is set to split videos into 15min sections which is handy for converting a film but you can set the split time to a setting of your choice anyway on the drop down menu "Split movies into chunks of:" on the 'Basic Options' screen
Experiment with the video bitrate! Following advice from Mysh I find 300 smoother on major scene changes (no slight pause)
Hope this helps!,
Cheers,
Dcuk

Hi Kosh52,
Welcome to Esato!
The macroblocking you are seeing is mainly caused by a video bitrate of 240, for a 320x240 res you need to raise this up to at least 300 video bitrate.
Also when you convert videos other than "youtube" did you know the k800i can play 320x240 @ 25fps smoothly, 32000 freq stereo 64bitrate?
Hope this helps!
Cheers,
Dcuk

thanks dcuk for your help...from your advice i upped the vid bitrate to 336kbps (there is no 300 on SUPER), frames/sec to 25, and audio freq at 32000 at 64 kbps. I havent seen much difference in the resultant mp4's, the 'macroblocking' is less evident, files are about 3mb larger and the quality is still scrappy compared with the HQ vid screen grabs you posted on page 12. Im thinking it could be either my source of videos (youtube quality isnt HQ, but it saves me from downloading music videos from limewire, up to 128mb in size) or it could well be the converter im using, which is SUPER.
Do you think SUPER (v2006) is good for HQ videos, or is there a better way? |

Hi kosh52,
I'm glad you are seeing less macroblocking.
personally I prefer M3 (and it's also free!)
http://www.vapulus.com/w900i/M3-0.8.7.5-Installer.exe
(latest version)
don't forget you need to install .net framework 2 for M3 to work.

try 300 bitrate on M3 and see what results you get!?
Hope this helps,
Cheers,
