Many videos i have are Tv series/Episodes which last for around 25-30 minutes, and it takes around 15-25 seconds for them to start each time which is not bad.

Someone posted a hack so that the videos don't take that long to load. I think it was posted in my video encoding thread. Had something to do with adding a black frame or something in the beginning of the video fooling the phone to start the playback or something. Let me go look.

I used Nero recode and it took 10-15 sec. for the 320mb movie to start. Nero is fantastic for grabbing the main movie from any dvd and recoding it, although I have to play more and learn to get full screen on my P990 without black space abow and below.
