Sony Ericsson W960 - user opinions and reviews

Sony Ericsson

how do you make mp4 from HD vids without shrinking the latter to 240x320? i want to have the two black bands at the top and bottom of the video (due to the preservation of the HD ratio) instead of having a compressed (longitudinally) one.

Or, u could use MPEG4 Direct maker, i am using it, it has worked for k-500, k-750, k-770, w880 with respective resolutions, make sure u selct the right resolution (the resolution that matched your mobile screen's resolution) and u can further select the quality of audit and video etc. i have used it to cut from dvds, vcds and other formats, it works great

convet the video for mobile and enjoy

mp4 and 3gp are ok for films on the w960 it all depends what file size as ive noticed. got over 20 films on phone at average 300 meg a piece. put new firmware on phone today seems alot faster. make sure you save all contacts to your sim tho :).

> In reply to maklampir @ 2008-11-06 16:38 from wc6hYou can try with avi instead or mp4
I Think both of format can be used.
But when you are using this format, you can not just used it just direct source, atleast you must convert them first, cause there are problems with codec and resolution and screen of this mobile phone

Hi SE fans,
3GP format is very poor to me.
would like to find out,what software we can install to watch movie in our W960? and what movie format is the best to watch using this phone?

We already have about 8 Gb of storage, no need to sacrifice video quality just for the sake of saving storage space.

Thanks for the "transition" off suggestion. it has speed up a bit. still, very close compared to my old w810i.

As for clearing up my inbox and outbox, I like to have a record of what I received. I have already tried deleting it down to about 300 txts, it was about 800+ before.

I already have the latest firmware, which is quite an improvement from the original one I would say.

It's good to know that other people are having the same problems. At least I guess this is normal.

Thanks guys!
