The audio is 64kbits/s MP3. So, I think that there is no reals improvements in the 2006 OS Video Player ! Hello,

the discovery video is just 352×208 MPEG4 at 15 frames/sec. The audio is 64kbits/s MP3.
So, I think that there is no reals improvements in the 2006 OS Video Player !

Most of the time it is time-compressed (accelerated), and therefore it may give you subjective feeling that "everything goes smooth". Regarding the bechmark issue, what have you used to bechmark video performance?

I've not upgraded my device to 2006 OS yet, but have the SDK installed... TIA, Andrew If you post some or all of the video online, I’ll see if I can make my 770-encode script produce the same output.

I’ve not upgraded my device to 2006 OS yet, but have the SDK installed…

TIA,

At open time, for a moment, I get the correct "end time" (say 1 hr 59 minutes). Then, for some bizarre reason, the timeline changes to a trivial 34 seconds. It plays beyond the end time. However, this makes it impossible to "fast forward" or use the slider to skip ahead. These same AVIs were fine in the last release OS2005_5_2006_13_7.

And i have not tried disecting the discovery video yet (been a busy week at work), but that video does not 'fit the curve' as far as generating videos by that howto. I believe that this video may be taking advantage of a 'sweetspot' in the device / firmware that is not widely known. Try a videos with transcode by that howto and then compare to the discovery video. ubergEEk yes i have read it. and ran about 100 benchmarks at various levels of resolution, video bit rate, audio bit rate, frame rate, etc, and then in windowed mode and full screen.
