(Feature Request) Support for more video formats (Such as WMV)

<< < (2/2)

saratoga:
Probably not.  The CPU/compression trade off is fundamental in video codecs.

FLAC is the least, Mp3 is close...

I use Ogg Vorbis, because it offers excellent compression. It might be shortening my battery life, but I don't mind I don't use it for very long. The Sansa went through 2 days of heavy usage and then finally the battery died and it only took 2 hours to charge.

If anything, I think Mpeg-2 works fine, not the greatest compression/quality you would expect, but it works good enough compared to my other Mp4 player which used .SMV (Motion Jpeg like format + IDA ADPCM WAV audio) and the compression, quality, and conversion speed was absolutely TERRIBLE.

Mpeg is VERY VERY FAST  :P
