Omnia Green Screen
I just purchased a Samsung Omnia this week. I downloaded the pc player, created an account, registered my Omnia, played the registration video on the phone (played fine), converted an exsisting movie on my pc, and put it on my Omnia. I can hear it just fine but all I see is a green screen. Help?
Good info. Thanks very much for your help.
How did you convert your movie?
You should try DivX Converter and make sure you use the "Mobile" setting.
I did use the Divx converter, on mobile setting. I also adjusted the output settings according to the instructions in the faq. Really frustrating......
Oh, that's not good. It sounds like you have a video that DivX Converter could not properly decode. I assume this video plays back fine on your computer?
My first suggestion would be to try Dr. DivX instead of DivX Converter. It's a little more complicated but it's not too hard to figure out. Sometime Dr. DivX can convert videos that DivX Converter cannot.
Alternatively, you could try another video converter altogether. I personally use VirtualDub a lot. Using various plug-ins, it can read a variety of video formats like Flash and Quicktime. VirtualDub can also export directly to a DivX file using the DivX encoder so again, make sure you pick the Mobile profile.
If all else fails, you could convert your video into an intermediate format that one of the above programs could read. For example, I do video editing on a Mac with iMovie. I export my videos using the Animation codec at 100% quality. The files are huge but the codec is lossless so it does not degrade the quality at all. Then I can import the file into VirtualDub (with the Quicktime plug-in) and then convert to DivX.
just a quick comment lol ive just bought divx and getting same problem when i try to convert bloody greens screen but get sound
