Some additional MPlayer testing

After my last post, MPlayer has been updated to version mplayer_1.0rc1-maemo.16, and I decided to test again to further optimize my video experience. I’ve found that when you transcode your videos with 30 fps instead of 25, the effect to smoothness is for some reason very dramatic. Mayde I should also try with 24, but haven’t got round to it yet.

I aimed at 500 x 300, but decided that the best result is achieved with lower resolution and a bit higher bitrate. So here’s my latest preset for 770-encode.p. I can’t say that it’s the best available preset for N800, but hopefully it’ll give you a place to start your own testing.

n800big => { abitrate => 128, vbitrate => 640, width => 480, height => 288, fps => 30
