Full Screen Video Figured Out
Have some .avi TV show episodes on my computer that I want to watch on my Droid. I use Handbrake to convert the .avi's to mpeg4. I set the new resolution to that of the screen (854x480) and while this changes the aspect ratio (makes things look a little wider) I think it is worth it to have the Droid's entire screen filled. Really does not distort it enough to make all that much of a difference. One quick question. I am using Handbrake's "FFMpeg" Codec (other options XVid and X264). Will there be a noticeable difference in quality between these 3? I use Act 1 to watch, and it seems to be able to read all 3. I just picked FFMpeg because it seems to be going the fastest (20min episode of American Dad took about 6 minutes to re-code.. the other ones were more like 10-20). So I am just wondering, does anyone know the difference between FFMpeg, XVid, and X264, and if so, is there a noticeable difference between them?
