Title: Pre made videos for h10 20 gb or iaudio x5
Post by: delorean90 on December 26, 2006, 06:44:07 PM
i was wondering if anyone has any vidoes that would work on the 160x128 screen of the h10, it would be preferred if the video(s) has subtitles. anything is apreciated.

Here's a link to the Elephant's Dream trailer hosted on download.rockbox.org

It's not hard to encode your own videos though. Just follow the instructions here:

ok i have 2 videos to work with, and what i need to do is convert them from 3gp, to a video file that can be read by rockbox, i also need to resise it to fit the 160x128 screen of the 20gb h10. is this possible, because it is hard working with a file that windows dosn't reconize

i used iriverter to convert the file, i do not know where to place the finished movie clip in order for it to be reconized, i am also unsure of what plugin to open the video with. any advice is apreciated

Nowhere in our instructions do we say to use iriverter.
