The PocketMVP Team has released a new version of our favorite DivX player - .8.082303 at the usual download site: http://home.adelphia.net/~mdukette/downloads.html

This is fully PPC2002 and WM2003 compatible and fixes all known bugs from the "illegal" WM2003-only version from winsoft.de.

Here's the thread from the ProjectMayo forums:

Thanks for the heads up!

Guess this means I can go ahead an install WM2003 whenever Dell decides to ship it...

sweeet.. just installed it.. gonna try it out tonite with matrix which i just encoded at 25fps portrait with stereo 56kbit mp3 audio. woohooo..

what i want to know is how the 2003 speed increase affects the movies i have already encoded. will it play them "faster"? or the same? also, how do i reencode in order to take advantage of the faster fps capabilities. i dont have 2003 yet, but i have an awful lot of encoded media i dont want to have to junk if 2003 plays it wierd. like i mentioned before, i turn my drop tolerance all the way up and skew the sound back. very smooth right now, espcially for the very small size

how exactly does drop tolerance work? i have it turned all the way down cuz i figure that way it won't tolerate dropped frames?

regarding 2003, anything that you have playing well in 2002 should play just fine in 2003. Because 2003 is more optimized towards xscale and does better in benchmarks than 2002 does, you could probably get away with higher bitrate video if your'e running 2003.

I do all my encodes portrait view and keep full framerates (either 25 or 30fps). I get very little dropped frames (out of say 60,000 i'd get under 100 dropped frames with a movie with alot of fast paced action). What I'd love to be able to do is encode fullscreen in landscape mode (320x240) with full framerates and stereo sound but it ain't happenin on my axim. it'll do it on a movie that's widescreen but anything that's a 4:3 aspect ratio it's just too much stuff on screen to playback.

I can't save the button mapping. Got to configure it everything I start the player Otherwise i like its skinning features and video is smoother!!!

couldn't get any reply at newbie section, maybe application specific post will help:

1) I installed Pocket PVP and at beginning it asked if I want to associate files with it, i said no to avi and mp3,.. I WANTED TO ASSOCIATE THEM.. but I chickened out and said no, so now I want to do it,


ALSO:

2) Can I just simply transfer regular full sized .AVI divx to 1 GIG CF and use MVP to watch it? Will there be many skipped frames, sound sync problems, etc?? Or will it just play it?

Thank You~!

The easy way is to just reinstall PocketMVP over itself and the dialog will appear again.

No. I can't stress enough the importance of re-encoding video for your device. They are not intended to be able to play a video with a size and bitrate intended for a desktop computer - there is just too much data for your poor little device to try to process.

i read on the help section of pocket mvp that drop tolerance has to do with smoothness of video and sound sync. it sait "by turning the drop tolerance up, the video will be smoother, but the sound may become out of sync" or something like that. so i just started skewing it back alittle, and keeping the drop tolerance all the way up. very smooth, very nice quality video now, with sound usually right on target, as well as very small file sizes. a 22 min simpsons is about 27 MB
