They will tolerate several framerates, but they have to be integer. You can't do 23.98, f'rinstance.

viDrop is the answer for doing the converting. Don't even bother with anything else.

I use 15 fps and about 90 kbit/s 2-Pass for the video and 48 kbit/s for the audio. Works fine and the movie is only ~100 MB. Very important to tick the 2 Pass box. The picture is just slightly artifacty but, hey, this isn't Home Cinema. I'd rather have 30-odd movies to choose from, which I do, as well as hundreds of audio tracks. I use WMA at 64kb/s which sound just fine to me. The only thing I wish for is longer battery life.

Thanks for your nice effort compiling instructions for Rockchip players... I feel that you have just some confusion with sound codecs used for your conversions:

1- How do you set WMA in viDrop ... I wouldn't be able to find this codec in my last version of viDrop (0.56.2).

2- How do you make Rockchip player work with WMA when the only limitation for rockchip players is to have sound in MP2?

Maybe you are using the new version of Rockchip players RK2706... and this version allows WMA?
