MP4 player, VBR and "format error"

[EART]

deepakrr,
yeah i porbably should do that then, i probably will when i get the time

michiganjfrog,

i dont know exactly how to identify them but i know they dont come up as 0, i only have one file that is 0 and it wont play on my player.
The files that are VBR seem to have wierd kbps (which i only just checked and may be my problem) some of my file say they are 663 and 557 kbps and since the player dont usually play files with such a high bitrate this could be my problem maybe somone encoded them with max kbps at 663 or maybe windows just gives an incorrect bitrate for VBR (probably since it could only be an average and theres no way they average out at 663?) any way im sure some of ur files will be VBR look at the kbps while the song is playing on ur mp4 player and it will go up and down in real time, well it does on mine at least.
neway my firmware is 9.0.50.
i have heard SportaPros sound quite good, i really want to know aswell how they compare to ipods etc.. i have good sennheisers but no headphone amp or anything so i cant really test it on those i guess i will have to wait and see on super-fi's and hope for the best :lol:

like you said EART, i have never seen a VBR file which shows 0 bitrate. they normally show bitrates which do not exist and when you play them using winamp or someother program, you will notice that while playing winamp will show you that the bitrate keeps on changing (128 to 256 to 192 then back).

just try and do the things which i told you whenever you have time and let us know of the result

deepakrr,
i will give it a shot, also i will try the video soon, at medium see what happens

[deepakrr]

ok.

also here are some more tips for getting the best out of your amv videos.

http://www.mympxplayer.org/using-vir...ons-vt805.html

that guide will help make the amv files play better than they normally do.

also,

If the video file you want to convert has 29fps, use medium fps setting while converting.

If it has 25fps, use high/low fps setting.

These settings will help avoid your amv videos from skipping and play smoother

IF you're having problems with video on the Glacier, its because the Glacier has problems with full size video. This may be the fault of AMV software (requiring an update), or it may be the fault of this player, I don't know. As others have found, you have to reduce the quality/size. These are the values I use for AMV v4.09 (Using "Normal" for the angle in all of them, the player will adjust as necessary):

AMV SETTINGS FOR GLACIER:

Full size movie: 208 x 176 (low) image quality: middle
Partial size but high quality movie: 208 x 160 image quality: high
Widescreen movie: 208 x 144: image quality: high

oh and also when i put long videos on the player i get a format error somtimes and other times i dont, its usually after about 5 minutes however i can skip forward to that point and watch another 5 minutes from there. does any one else have this problem or know how to fix it (and i have already checked for a hack, and there was one ) ??

Hello you may be have a hacked player please read the follow guide:

Its not a hacked player. The Glacier cant decode VBR Mp3's (along with some variations of other formats)

The ones I sent back played vbr mp3 and vbr ogg without troubles. Got a message this morning Uxcell will send me 2 new, so I will check and report back.

That's very strange... unless you have a different firmware version? I had 9.0.48.
