Default Video Quality

Playing back videos that are stored on my sd card, as well as youtube videos, are not clear at all. They aren't even close to how clear they appear on my ipod touch. Is that because the file source resolution does not match the HD2's resolution? Even when videos are played in original resolution, they still are grainy and pixelated.

Has anyone seen a chart that would be similar to this one for the Sony Ericsson:

I'd like to set up the optimum settings in my SUPER conversion software. If you have setting in SUPER that you are using and really like, could you please share? Thanks.

Use Core player, I get very good results. Plays all of my divx/xvid movies without conversion. Better Quality than any ipod i have seen. Just search for best settings to use!

Has anyone test driven the "Kinoma Player"? It is supposed to be very good and works with Leo. I don't know, just trying to find out some information about the quality of this product.

For purchasing core player to use with the HD2, do you download the WM Pocket PC version, or the WM Smartphone version?

I believe these are the ideal settings once it's downloaded (correct?):
Menu/Tools/Settings/Select Page/Video and set :
1-Video output to DirectDraw (not GDI)
2-Smooth Zoom to ON

wm pocket pc version is the one you want, the smartphone version is for non-touch screen devices.

Those settings are fine. GDI works also.

I'm biased, of course, but Kinoma Play is a pretty great app.

The product page is a good representation of what it can do: http://kinoma.com/play/

You can see it in action here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfYZ-bC20eM

Plus, there's 30-day money-back guarantee in case you're not delighted.
