So... we all know the Diamond has a powerful 528MHz processor - and supposedly a pretty decent video chipset.

Now, the screen may be a bit small, but we should still be able to play content at pretty decent resolution at 25/30fps.

What settings/drivers/tweaks/registry entries have people used to get the best, smoothest video playback from their Diamond?


Any chance we'll be able to get scene-quality XviD, PSP (h264) or iPOD quality encoded videos to play smoothly on the device without re-encoding all the time? Let's just assume that a typical 175, 350 or 700MB Xvid is used - or whatever the usual iPOD/PSP sizes are for TV shows/movies.

I'm all ears on suggestions :)

Our entire Milestone of CorePlayer 1.3 is simply gonna freak ppl out with the amount of new features that will be in it. UPNP, FTP Server/Client, BonJour Support, Channels, v2 UI, etc.

Can't wait :D

Hoping it will be a lot faster for the Diamond than the current one, large videos like ones at 640x480 seem to struggle a little with the current CorePlayer no matter what setting I try :)

Do you need someone to properly translate the Spanish language file? Because the current localization is... well... let's say "a bit out of context" :D

I appreciate that, and I know you make a great program, but are there going to be any optimisations speed wise for certain chipset features?

Converting my videos to MP4 (512x384, 700kbps) seems to work rather well without the need for any additional software. I'm using the current O² ROM 1.93.207.2-GER.
I'll just compare it with HTC's 1.93 ROM just to be sure because O² seem to use a different ddi.dll.

I uploaded it for the curious souls. :)

Hello coreplayer users, do any of you knows why my back ground light only dims, it doesnt go off ? is always on when streaming music ? any way to fix this ? or any program capable of streaming while light is off ?

Thank you all in advanced.
