Nokia 500 Video Playback

Can anyone help me with encoding video for the Nokia 500? I have tried several encoding programs and have not successfully got video to play back smoothly yet. I have ripped dvd's at the 15 fps and resolution at 480 x 272. Has anyone had any luck with settings that you might share? I appreciate any feedback.
Thanks,
David

guys, i support  leenusjames.
i have tried many converters and the best quality was seen in format factory.
i am attaching a screenshot for the maximum quality of audio and video.
i used these settings to convert hd videos. bitrates over 1600 makes the video pause.
The 16:9 aspect ratio gives a full screen video for nokia 500.

  • Nokia 500 video calling problem

    Hello Nokia..
    I had just bought Nokia 500 mobile.  As shown in advertisement & specificatio shown on website, there is 3g supported phone.  But lake is there is no video call feature. I spent around 10K for this phone but no video call feature. I know it has no front camera but I have 6233 3g phone. It has main camera only yet it support video calling and I already doing this.  Then why this option is not available with this phone. 
    I feel like cheated by nokia. 
    Can Nokia reply my thread with genuine reason and care like genuine customer.?

     The fact is you should have asked the question if the 500 was capable of video calling before you bought the phone. There is absolutely nothing anyone can help you with here and reading the specifications page makes no mention of video calling so that should have given you an idea that it's not supported.
     As I said in my previous post, this is a user to user forum so if you want a Nokia representative to answer your questions you can use the Contact support button at the top of the page.

  • Nokia E50 video playback

    I have converted video files from flv to 3gp and saved it on my E50 using PC Suite. When I play the clip with Real Player version S60.30.20.01 A, I can hear the sound but no clip. Could anyone please advise on what could be the solution to this? Some other 3gp videos are working alright. Thank you very much in advance.

    Nokia E50 video resolution: 240 x 320
    I ever met the same question with you, and my bro fixed it up with something called video file converter. It is simple, This video file converter is already optimized for output setting for mobile phone, so just  encode ur FLV files to 3GP format again and there will be normal.

  • Nokia 5230 video playback and recording

    I own the latest nokia 5230. The problem is :
    1) When I doing video record using setting TV high quality and Widescr. high quality, it seems 
         that my video skip on certain seconds. Using email high quality and below doesn't give any
         problems but the quality is very poor.
    2) The problem also occured on playback. Realplayer can't play the skip second on recording
          and then run as normal back after certain time.
    It happens all the time as long I used both video setting. I just want to know the solution for this or there is any video recorder software like ETI Camcoder in Nokia s60 series?
    Sorry for my bad grammar. I just don't know how to describe this problem. Thanks a lot.

    This could be caused by a slow memory card...try this to confirm...
    backup your card  data in pc, format your memory card..
    then make video. .... i hope no bugs in video
    i have same problem i am using china made card
    try faster card and update your phone software ver
    good luck

  • Nokia E63 Video Playback Problem

    I have loads of videos on my Nokia E63, but I am not satisfied with their quality.  Actually I have seen how mp4 quality works superb on cell phones, but the issue with me is that they are too laggy on my phone!
    I put a video on my cell phone, it's in mp4 format and the resolution is 320x240. But as soon as I start playing the video, it works absolutely fine, until it's gone through 5-6 seconds of playback, when the lag starts and this gradually keeps on happening after every 5-secong play!
    Later, I re-converted the PC video and chose the same mp4 format, but the resolution this time was 176x144(QCIF). I then play the video on my cell phone. There's absolutely no lag, but the quality is poor and the appearance is blurry!
    I thought that there might be a problem with the video converter I was using. But the same thing kept on happening with 5-6 other different video converters which I used.
    I really need some help at this because I can't let go mp4 and try a different format. I mean, 3gp's good but not so much when it comes to it's audio. I just want to know how I can get rid of this lagging issue and play mp4 320x240 videos on my phone PERFECTLY.
    Help me out please

    Try lower bitrates, eg. 750kbps video, 96kbps audio. You could also match framerate of source file if you haven't already. Some general info here: /discussions/board/message?board.id=imaging&thread.id=4961

  • Nokia 7390, video playback in slowmotion!

    When I watch video's on my Nokia 7390 phone, it is played in a bit of slowmotion. I did not have that problem with my Nokia 6233. That one worked perfectly.
    This 7390 has the latest software version, what can be wrong with it???

    The Nokis 6233 has some of the best video abilities ever seen on a mobile phone. The 7390 is not that good at videos. This is a hardware issue as the 6233 uses superior chips and has more computing power. Unfortunately no firmware upgrade will fix this on the 7390.

  • Nokia 6151 - Fulscreen video playback,software ins...

    Hi Everyone,
    I want to know two thing for Nokia 6151, These are :
    1: Does it support software installation of new software like symbian programs?
    2: Does it have the facility to play mpeg4 video in fulscreen Landscape mode?
    Thanks,
    Mujeebrm

    Just confirming about Full Screen Video playback.
    I watch 3gp video format on my 6151, the only problem I can see is that in full screen mode you get the words "BACK" & "PAUSE" over the top of the video you are trying to watch.
    Also if you have Bluetooth on you'll get the Bluetooth symbol over your video and a minutes/sec counter.
    So its not really full screen.
    It would be nice if Nokia made all these functions autohide after a few seconds and come back if you push any buttons.
    Cheers,

    Please help!!!
    Best regards,

    I checked with G-Spot: The Codec with FourCC "avc1" seems to be unsupported. So H.264/MPEG-4 AVC is NOT supported by Nokia Asha 200 / 201 / 205 (generally?). The MPEG-4 Codec with FourCC "mp4v" seems to be supported. Videos encoded with "mp4v" can be played with Asha 200 / 201 / 205 (resolution 320x240, 15fps, audio bitrate 192kbps and 44100Hz.sample rate). **bleep**

  • Nokia 500 GPS questions/troubles with: Contacts, F...

    So... I have owned my 500 now since Christmas (I received the 500 as a gift from my father-in-law). Overall, for my first GPS device, I really enjoy all the features... But, I'm having quite a few troubles and hoped that some expert users or Nokia Support folks might be able to help.
    1) It took me forever, but I found a program to sync my Treo 700wx from Verizon to the Nokia 500. When I first tried syncing my phone it was recognized just fine but then only downloaded my 5 favorite (or quick dial) contacts from the Windows Mobile homepage. Then I did some looking on the internet and found a program from a company called JETware Mobile Software at www.jetwaremobile.com. The first time I used this software (the trial version only) I suceeded in syncing 623 contacts to the Nokia 500. Here are the issues though... The addresses did not sync (what a huge inconvenience considering this was 90% of the reason I wanted to sync the contacts). The phone numbers for each contact (if there were multiple phone numbers for the same person) sync as seperate contacts on the Nokia 500 (not a huge deal).
    Question# 1) Isn't there a way to use some sort of a program on the PC to syncronize contacts from let's say Outlook or VCF files or a CSV file to the Nokia 500 manually?
    2) I copied all the data from the supplied 2gb SD card and loaded it onto a new AData 16gb SD card & re-inserted the card to make sure everything worked ok on the device - No problem. I uploaded 8 gb of MP3 & 4 gb of Movies (in MP4 format - great program to use is www.pqdvd.com - buy the iPod version or PSP version so you can use it for both) and 1 gb of pictures.
    Here are my comments:
    MP3's - The player is a bit cheezy, but I was finally able to figure out how to play at random all the MP3s or play individual folders of songs at a time. Too bad you can't create or import a playlist!
    FM Transmitter - Totally worthless in Sacramento, CA where there isn't a whole lot of open FM channels on the radio dial. Unfortunately my Jetta doesn't have an audio input plug otherwise this might work a lot better!
    Note: the only place I can find to turn the FM transmitter on is in the MP3 playing mode (very strange & annoying)
    Movies - I read a lot here to find out why the playback was so choppy & pretty low quality... Bottom line - You have to record the MP4s at about 15fps and create a MP4 file for about a one & a half hour movie that is about 600mb or so. This seemed to work pretty good.
    Question #2) Is there a recommendation from Nokia experts on how to help the FM transmitter function worth a darn?
    3) I've searched for many addresses on the GPS and echo other's complaints about very strange missing information & strange city lines in Nokia's software. It's very odd to me that I have to go thru about 10 clicks to "Take me home" and that everytime the device navigates me home it takes me a very off-the-beaten-path way home.
    Question #3) Is there a way to save the route you actually drove between two destinations and store that as a trip on the Nokia 500 - vs. storing just the end destination & the Nokia solution to get from point A to B.
    4) Battery life - If I had to guess the average battery life I've seen using this device is about 1 hour from power up to "I really need charging". Is this normal for GPS devices? I'm guessing it must be and most people just keep these plugged in at all times to their cigarette adapters.
    5) Traffic - From my testing in Sacramento, CA there is no traffic service or alerts.
    Question #4) Is there a service I need to purchase & how would one go about turning on traffic services for the Nokia 500?
    6) User-interface - I'm brand new to this whole GPS world but as you can tell from this review I'm pretty tech-savvy... I'm a bit surprised at home much savvy it really takes to operate this device and I would think the average not-so-savvy user would be very put off by this.
    Overall if I were to rate this device out of 10 I'd have to say it's a strong 6/10 and possibly a 7/10.
    I really appreciate any expert feedback on my above 4 questions & 6 topics if at all possible.
    Thank you!
    ~Jeff

    Jeff, here's my input on your points and questions. Thanks for writing your post...
    Question 1) It only supports syncing over bluetooth with phones that meet its bluetooth specs (see the user manual on the DVD for more details or the product website)
    Point 2)
    While you can't create or import a playlist on the Nokia, you can use your media player on your computer (e.g. Windows Media Player), while the SD card is inserted in your card reader on your computer, to create a playlist. Then copy the playlist file over the existing playlist file found in the root of your SD card.
    Question 2) Not sure how to answer this one. The transmitter is built into the Nokia. So you just need to program it to use an available frequency (understanding that it is hard to find in your area). It doesn't unfortunately have the ability to scan for available frequencies (that would be cool).
    Point 3) After you've selected to take you home, press the menu button and the Alt Route button where you can (according to the manual) configure the Nokia to block a route from being used.
    Question 3) You would have to create a trip that includes enough waypoints (which you can create by creating bookmarks as you drive along) and then use that. Not to be sarcastic, but I find it funny how obsessed we all get about a GPS choosing the best route when if you already know of a better route then why do you even need the GPS' guidance? I'm guilty of this too so I'm also laughing at myself.
    Point 4) I'm guessing that if your using the bluetooth integration, the FM transmitter, the TMC receiver, streaming video, using navigation, and keeping the brightness at the max setting, the estimated 2hr battery life isn't going to happen. The manual actually recommends using the cigarette lighter because it is your TMC receiver.
    Point 5) My city (Vancouver, Canada) does offer TMC and my Nokia says its tuned in (I know because I've also seen the message where it says it is Tuning) yet I've not seen one traffic advisory yet. My Nokia's manual included an addendum from Nokia saying that TMC service is not available in the US and Canada. We all know this isn't true but maybe this is Nokia's way of saying their version of a TMC receiver doesn't work in North America.
    Question 4) Good question. I think the answer is no because this TMC receiver is meant to work with a free TMC service. I'm thinking that maybe the only TMC services in US and Canada are pay-services that require you to enter a subscription unlock code in your GPS - the Nokia doesn't appear to provide such a function. *** This is my theory, I haven't confirmed this with any TMC provider ***
    Point 6) I agree the user interface is not meant for non-tech-literates. It took me awhile to figure it out. Especially the meaning of icons and when to use them. This is NOT the Tivo of GPS
    Overall I'm satisfied with my GPS even though I suspect there will never be map, POI, or software updates. I plan to figure out a way to mount it to my motorbike and ride all the way down to Mexico City (if I can figure out how to unlock the license for the Mexico map!)

  • Nokia 6131 video not in sync with sound

    After a year of working just fine, my Nokia 6131 video picture is not in sync with the sound when I play it back on the phone or when I download it to my pc to view.
    At first the problem was only when I played it back on the phone, but was fine on the pc. Now it's distorted on both.
    The video picture seems to be on fast forward but the sound runs smoothly. My video's are always less than five mins long.
    Please can anyone help me to resolve this frustrating problem?

    hey KatieGirl, i too had the same problem with my old nokia 6288. have you tried turning off your phone and restarting it, this usually helps in alleviating choppy video playback. if this is still resulting in **bleep** playback on your phone and pc, then i would suggest searching for a software update via Nokia Software Updater, if there is no update, then i would suggest re-flashing your phone with the same version firmware again. p.s. remember to backup all your data before flashing your phone with firmware.
    failing all this, then i would suggest taking your phone to your nearest Nokia Care Centre or authorised service repair centre, as there may be a fault with your phone hardware itself.
    hope this helps.

  • VIDEO PLAYBACK ANOMALY N95

    I'm using the N95 with the TV-OUT cables connected to an external monitor. While watching a Video, if an incoming call is answered, the video playback is paused for the duration of the call. When resuming playback of the video after hanging-up the call, the video image appears to be veiled with poor picture contrast and the picture partially renders with the original colours. The sound track remains ok.
    Could this be a codec/Video-RAM problem, after a context switch, and how can this be rectified !
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    I think the fundamental problem I'm having with the video playback with incoming-call interruption is due to the video format being used;
    MPEG-4 Files
    24 bits, 176 x 144, 15 fps
    Frame-based
    MPEG-4 SP Video: 200 Kbps
    44100 Hz, 16 Bit, Stereo
    MPEG AAC Audio: 128 Kbps
    It seems that when using the "Transfer Videos" utility within Nokia PC suite, some form of further Optimisation (.MP4) or Conversion is taking place on the Video file resulting in a file size which is smaller than the original .MP4 file.
    This, I believe is exasperating the problem !
    Therefore, using the File Manger utility to copy the Video file directly from the PC to the relevant folder on the Memory Card gets around this problem.
    The Video now continues to play after the context switch from the In-Coming Call with some initial degradation in picture quality as before but recovers fully within a couple of seconds.
    This needs to be investigated further, and many thanks to all who have helped!

  • Video playback problems [6500 Slide]

    Video playback at 25, 29.9, 30 fps is jerky, only 12.5, 15 fps videos play correctly... Lowering the bitrate or using a less complex profile/codec doesnt help much. Funny thing is, it can play its own videos which are whooping 640x480 @ 25fps and 2000-3000kbps [for comparison: the videos i encoded were only 320x240, 25fps, 200kbps] without a problem! O.o So, why has it problems playing my less complex to decode videos?
    I tried following ways of encoding in SUPER:
    MPEG4
    h.263
    XviD (h.263/basic)
    320x240
    25, 29.9, 30 fps
    AAC
    2ch
    44.1kHz
    96kbps
    All jerky! :[
    But halving the fps... Viola, it plays fine!
    Is this a known issue?
    Will this be fixed in the next firmware? Hope so! >.
    Cant nokia release some video coding tool with profiles for each phone model, to ensure flawless playback!? -.-
    Regards, KD

    I found the intel driver doesn't like xv output.  In VLC go Settings > Preferences > Video > Output modules and set X11 video output. See if that works.  If it does you can do similar things to totem using something in the gnome-media package (can't remember what exactly of hand...)
