Question So I want to watch a video on my Ax. . .

How do I get it to look the best? I am creating my own video, so settings ideas would be great!

How do I get the best playback, fps, etc.

I have tried making .wmv -- the lowest quality was tiny and looked awful, and the medium was too high, I got 1 frame per 30 seconds! I also trieg mpeg2, the orientation was weird in Resco Viewer, and was chunky!

SO I know I am doing something wrong!

I want to show a 2 minute home movie to my family this weekend. I have the capability to compress in most formats, I just don't know what works best on the PPC.


Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :p

I assume you are using windows media encoder. The best I could go was 160x120 at 15fps (It is a preset on the encoder for a 56kbps connecton).

I just use Windows Movie Maker, and then make a full screen PocketPC movie (320x240).
