Hi,
But MPEG4 needs more CPU power AND you have to transcode the existing
material we already have on DVD or DVB before you can watch it. It's
kind of pointless to waste desktop CPU power to transcode existing
material if you could watch it in original form.
I'd rather transcode once into a format more suitable for portable devices than
waste all my Flash storing the same single uncompressed DVD film/movie.
It's about balance, and having the powerful desktop CPU convert the film as a
one-off exercise is surely a better option than expecting more from a
hardware-limited platform, or consuming all your available Flash memory to
store the film in it's original state.
As long as the N800 can support a wide range of video codecs offering at least
400x240 @ 25fps resolution I'd be very, very happy. Any higher resolutions
would be a bonus, but pixel-doubled 400x240 looks pretty awesome as it is.
