mp4 – .mp4 video lag problems?
.mp4 video lag problems?
Okay. I did post a question about this problem last week, and I did manage to solve most of the problem. The original problem was that 24 minute cartoons played on Media Player Classic lagged so badly as if they were being played in slow motion and that after I used "Increase Rate", the audio was fine, but the video lagged behind by almost one second. Lagging by one second is aggravating if you've seen it happen before. Someone suggested I get the VLC video player because it "basically almost plays everything", and it did. However, I am still puzzled. Here's the new confusion:
Several months ago, I had the Haali Media Splitter, ffdshow, and Combined Cummunity Codec installed in my computer. Every video I ever downloaded could be played on Media Player Classic with no issue at all. I could even use the videos to make music videos in Windows Movie Maker just as easily. Then, my computer got a virus some time ago and I had to wipe my entire hard drive clean. I re-downloaded my codecs and I only have issues with the .mp4 videos that are too long to be played correctly. Not only that, but Windows Movie Maker can't play the .mp4 videos that are about 24 minutes long.
What happened? Can I fix this at all by adjusting settings in Media Player Classic or maybe in any of the codecs so Windows Movie Maker can read the .mp4 videos?
Thanks.
One of Nokia’s upcoming releases is the C3. Offering the efficiency of a QWERTY along with features such as a digital camera, and Wi-Fi Internet access this handset is primarily aimed as of functionality tool rather than a fashion statement.
Internal memory within the Nokia C3 is 55 MB as standard. This provides a good deal of storage for data such as music tracks, video clips or photos etc. Should further storage be required, the micro SD slot can be utilised by installing a memory card of up to 16 GB which is capable of storing an entire digital music collection, so should therefore be ample for the needs of most users. The internal phonebook can store a seemingly unlimited number of entries and fields and boasts the ever popular Photocall feature. This allows a photo to be assigned to each contact and is in turn displayed on screen whenever that person calls.
Connection to cellular networks is provided via class 32 versions of both EDGE & GPRS. This keeps the C3 connected in all but the most isolated of locations. In order to surf the web at broadband speeds, Wi-Fi Technology is utilised. Whenever this detects a signal from a wireless Internet router it provides users with the means to surf the web at impressive speeds. Bluetooth is installed as standard, and provides a means by which users can connect to other compatible phones in the same vicinity in order to carry out tasks such as sharing music tracks or swapping contact information. Micro USB connectivity is also provided which means the phone can be connected to a computer in order to carry out a number of different tasks ranging from managing media files to backing up the contents of the internal phonebook.
Social networking integration is included within the Nokia C3, which allows users to share their thoughts with friends and family in seconds, via popular social networking websites such as Facebook and MySpace. The versatile internal media player supports several different formats of both music and video files such as MP3 and MP4. A stereo FM radio player and a selection of downloadable games are offered as additional entertainment features to keep users entertained for hours on end.
Decent quality digital photographs can be taken with the included two mega pixel camera which operates at a pixel resolution of 1600x 1200 pixels. As well as the ability to take still images, the camera can also shoot video in QCIF quality at a rate of 15 frames per second, offering an alternative method of image capture.
The dimensions of the Nokia C3 are 115.5x 58.1x 13.6 mm, making it a pocket friendly handset especially given its light weight of 114 g. The phone is available in a number of different colour variants including slate grey, golden white and hot pink, adding aesthetic appeal to the handset.
The TFT screen measures 2.4 inches and utilises a pixel layout of 320x 240 to display up to 256K colours. This provides decent levels of on screen imagery display so is ideal for viewing photos and watching video clips.
If straightforward functionality is the order of for the day, the Nokia C3 is an ideal choice. For those who prefer the use of a physical keyboard over touchscreen technology, the Nokia C3 comes out on top.
