quicktime, flash, wmv, and so on but i am not being able to use ovguide videos...
skyfire has done real good job for flash and quicktime plugin video (dailymotion.com) but i am waiting for stable version of skyfire for wvga where we already got alpha version..
hello one and all

Watch video on Desire

Guys - what is the easiest way to convert DVDs to watch on Desire? Is there any good free tools out there and what format/settings should be used for best pic?
I got the AnyVideoConverter, but as far as I can see it only does in 640x480 format... please advice a newbie! Thanks!

HTC Touch HD Video Convertor v1.2 allows you to covert output res of 800x480, i haven't tried it yet but I already read someone tried it and work great for HTC desire.

Is conversion necessary? Can the Desire play .vob files right out of the box or with some app? That is, unless space is a major concern...
(I don't actually know the answers to those questions, mind. Just wondering.)

I was wondering the same thing. Any links to the best software for converting?

MP4 For HD works perfect and it's really fast. You can find it here:

Anyone know if it has a DiVX compatible player? It'd be a total pain to convert all my vids...

You could always try the Videora Android Converter. I use the Videora iPod Classic Converter for my.. well, for my iPod Classic. And it works like a charm!

Doesn't appear too, was rumoured the phone would be updated to support it though.
Personally i use badaboom, GPU encoding is much better then CPU. Doesnt do 800x480 but 720x480 is good enough.

Has anyone managed to get any films on or convert films to play on the Desire?? I have the Touch HD encoder (for my HD) which works well, would this work for the Desire???

Hi! I use it and output is great (quality, sync, etc) for Desire
Regards, folgui.

I use doubletwist for converting avi files over onto the phone when syncing.

I use handbrake for my video converting, works very good. The settings I used are somewhere on an other topic about video converting.

Ripping DVD's

Can any one recommend software for ripping DVD's for use on my Desire?

There are a MANY free coverters out there.
I use PGC.net to dump a DVD and either MEGUI or StaxRip to convert.
MEGUI is a bit difficult for beginners, Staxrip less so.
If you are new to video encoding try RipBot or Vidcoder.
In fact, you know what? Just get Vidcoder and use the preset for iPhone

I quite like DVD Catalyst - used it since I was ripping DVDs to watch on my HTC Touch HD - as it really struggled to play normal avi's - the desire doesn't have that problem when playing through rockPlayer - but DVD Catalyst is still nice for the Desire

check www.giveawayoftheday.com as they often do dvd converters for free I use winx ultimate video converter absolutely brilliant

Handbrake works great, but if you're on Windows, try Vidcoder like I mentioned b4. It uses the handbrake library but with better GUI and options.

ThankYou all for your input.

So what settings resolution codec and player on the desire should we use?

dvd ripper
i recommend you Winx DVD Ripper Platinum

Can anyone recommend some good software to rip DVD's to the DHD?

Hi,
I've tried using Nero Recode to convert a DVD so I can put it on my DHD.
While the audio quality is great, the video quality leaves a lot to be desired if you pardon the pun.
If anyone could offer some help that would be much appreciated.

Xilisoft dvd ripper. They also have a great package for converting video files to different formats called xilisoft video converter.
Nero recode isn't that flash.
