All latest phones can play mp4. Not sure about real8 and wmv. But that link seems to show that phones can play them. |

Since the days of k550i, every se phone can play mp4, except some j-series. I'm not sure about real format though. But my phone can play real media as streams only. But can't play real media files.

I have a query here . . . does it always follow that converting of files ... will SOMETIMES (or MOST of the time), make the final video outcome SMALLER in file size I tried converting a 1.6 MB small-clip video (wmv-format) to MPEG-4 . . . and resulting to a: 411 KB file size 
Does the P990i play videos in: Windows Media Movie (.wmv) format Thanks !

Yes, unless you chose not to compress it. (keep the quality) |

@duran - OK, thanks! I manage to GET a direct 3gp video-outcome . . . will convert some and view it later on my P990i . . . I hope it will PLAY  !
@all - OK, I now manage to convert some wmv and mpeg videos to 3gp video format .. . my query now is . . . do I HAVE the RIGHT settings here (see image below) . . . I set it AS IT IS (default), I am contented with the standard settings, no need to MODIFY the OUTCOME result of it . . . Thanks!

Jojo, All SE with 320x240 display can playback 3gp, mp4 h.263 and mp4 divx video at 240x320 resoluton (in landscape mode), @ 320Kbps, 25fps.
Later phones, such as K800 etc, can also playback Realplayer 8, WMV 8 video files at 176x144 resolution. K850 can playback real and wmv at 240x320. Not sure about P990 with regards to real and wmc.

Hey JOJO
the best settings for your P990:
first of all: Do not use .3GP
format: .MP4 (encoding does not matter as the P990 cpu can decompress them all)
size: 320x240
framerate: 25
video bitrate: 512kbps
audio: 44100khz 96kbps stereo
all sonyericsson phones from K750 forward can play .MP4s an all from later versions of P990 or K800 can play also uncompressed .WMVs
you can get the best quality to size ratio with the MP4 |

@chombos - OK, thanks for the proper-setting/configuration back there . . . well, I've just tried playing the videos from the TWO settings mentioned: MPEG-4 and 3gp . . . and both works OK with my P990i . . . though I just made notice a lag in video movement (slow-motion . . .) though NOT that slow . . . with the MPEG-4 setting. While the video in 3gp-format PLAYED just fine (as what I am expecting . . .)
@whizkidd - Thanks so MUCH for posting the LINK ! I've been looking for a converter (FREE) of this kind a loooooong TIME ago !

K750/K800 era can only playback H.263 or Divx MP4's - H.264 for example won't playback. K850 I think does support H.264. WMV's on K800 yes, but only at 176x144 resolution.
