Mpeg player is acting really weird on H10

(1/1)

darrellm2005rockets:
the audio plays continuosly, with no problems. But the video playback will stop at random points, allowing the audio to get ahead of it. Then, when the video starts up again, it is out of sync with the sounds. Anyone know what I should do?

What program/settings are you using to encode the videos?

Try decreasing the frame rate and/or dimensions of the video in order for it to play back smoothly on your player.  See the PluginMpegplayer wiki page.

What do you use? I was using some free trial software, and I tried mediacoder, but the trial ran out and mediacoder is confusing. I set the video's dimensions to my screen's size. I will try the frame rate thing, if only I can get a darn converter.

P.S. I tried another video before this one and it worked....

cool_walking_:
Were the video that worked and the video that skipped encoded with the same method?

People seem to find WinFF the easiest to use.

If you are comfortable with the command line, I'd suggest mencoder:

mencoder -of mpeg -oac lavc -lavcopts acodec=mp3:abitrate=160 -af resample=44100:0:0 -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg2video:vbitrate=300 -vf scale,harddup -ofps 12 -zoom -xy 320 inputfile.avi -o outputfile.mpg

where 160 is audio bitrate, 300 is video bitrate, 12 is frame rate, and 320 is width in pixels (height is automatically calculated). You'll want to change at least the last two based on the "performance" table on PluginMpegplayer.
