Comic Book Read - Vibrant Themes and Apps

Whats the best comic book reader for Android?

As far as I've seen ACV is the best.
Link
*Opens CBZ/ZIP, ACV, CBR/RAR (beta), JPEG, PNG, BMP & image folders (long tap)
*Read comics from SD card
*Left-to-right or right-to-left reading
*Use touch screen or trackball to zoom, scroll & navigate
*Next & previous screen cache

+1 for ACV, been reading Identity Crisis recently lol

ACV is the best. It reminds me of CDisplay.

MPO vs. JPS?

What's everyone's opinion on what is the better file format to use? I see no appreciable difference in the overall picture quality. Unfortunately my Samsung 3D tv does not recognize either format through DLNA, 3D video works fine though. I have read that JPS tends to be easier to edit and may be more usable by other devices. I notice that an MPO's details show the res at 1920 x 1080 where as JPS shows it as 3840 x 1080 (the 2 stereoscopic images combined).
Thoughts? I'd love for some photog enthusiasts to chime in here.
while im not entirely certain of this i believe that .mpo is an interleaved format while .jps is not, again im not sure but there is a 3d format that is interleaved
mpo stores the left eye and right eye as 2 files in the mpo file
jps is basically a renamed jpeg with both images side by side in 1 file (right eye on the left)
if you ever need to edit them on the PC, JPS is easier as it opens in windows picture viewer and you can just rename to .jpg and open in photoshop
JPS is also classed as the "industry standard"
there is no difference in quality and you can change between the 2 by simply loading either format into StereoPhoto Maker press "x" and save as the opposing format (mpo has left eye on the left, jps has it on the right, pressing "x" switches the side of the images)
Hope this helps

[Q] Full page PDF reading possible?

How easy is it to read PDFs on the tablet where you're viewing it a full page at a time? (PDFs that are designed to be printed on A4 sized paper or technical book sized paper).
I've got a ton of ebooks, manuals and other such documents in PDF format. I would love to use the Tablet as a PDF reader but only if it can be comfortably read while viewing a whole page at a time. I don't want to be doing any zooming/panning around the page.
Just to clarify, this is when holding tablet in portrait mode. Also, assume the PDF pages are like that of a typical technical book.
Depends on the PDF no? One with large margins and tiny text won't be as legible as one with bigger text. But I find most PDFs look good in portrait mode.
I bought the GT 10.1 primarily for reading tech docs. It works very well for this purpose, but a few things to note:
An letter sized page is a bit small. But after zooming (Acrobat PDF, or QuickOffice) in to eliminate the margins, it is still smaller than normal, but only slightly.
An app that automatically cropped margins and allowed inverted image would be perfect. I have not found one yet.
Landscape mode is effectively same size (width) as letter. So 100% reproduction, but you do have to scroll.
mantano reader can crop. aldiko is cheap against that reader.
Yes, comfortably without zoom+pan
I use repligo reader for its excellent graphical page rendering, giving the clear text effect to scanned pages, even at full screen width view! Use expdf primarily for annotation but repligo for pure reading pleasure, even turning pages is faster in repligo, hence highly recommended.
repligo ist the fastest one but it lacks in formatting options.
I am happy with repligo's page rendering, it makes my over zoomed scanned pdf books more readable
Big fan of ezPDF, well worth the two bucks

the adobe reader android app has the "rescroll text" option which is very good at utilizing the whole screen and sizing the font and line changes accordingly.

[HOW TO] 3D photo EDITING!!!!! UPDATED 2-26-12

For quite a while I wondered how to edit my 3D photos, not anything too crazy just things like adjusting the contract, saturation, etc.. By default it seems that our camera captures 3D photos in mpo format, which is not possible to edit as easily as a jpeg in a photo editor. HOWEVER, if you set the format to jps, you can now edit them in any photo editor that can edit jpeg files!! Apparently jps files are just jpeg files with the right and left images side by side. I have attached a sample I did, for upload I had to set the file extension to jpg because jps wouldn't allow a file size over 97kb?! Anyhow I did this one in PicSay Pro but you can of course get more creative and use Photoshop or my favorite, GIMP. It's VERY EASY to do and very fun. For the longest time I didn't know how to do this so I thought I'd post this info for the others like me that didn't know. I was able to open the file for editing without changing the extension from jps to jpg/jpeg, HOWEVER the photo editing applications if they don't recognize or allow you to save it as a "jps" file extension just save it as a normal jpeg/jpg and then manually change the extension to jps and you will be able to view it in 3D like normal on your EVO 3D. ENJOY!!!!!!!
UPDATE:
You can now even edit your MPO 3D images, from your phone, but you have to convert them to SIDE BY SIDE JPEG first, and you can use this great program to do it! Tobidale3D!
Here's how:
1. Install Tobidal3D.
2. View your MPO 3D image from the regular Gallery*.
3. Select SHARE for the photo you want to convert, select Tobidale3D, then select SHARE AS 3D*.
4. Press MENU, then select Parallel Stereo Format (see attached).
*Optional method: You can just open Tobidale3D and view all your pics with it directly then save from there, but I think using the gallery is easier.
Now you can edit the newly saved file as it's converted to a side by side jpeg jps file (it has a jpeg/jpg extension). The rest of the original editing instructions apply.
Awesome editor! I would recommend in addition to PicSay Pro, which costs about 4 bucks, you can use Pixlr-o-matic. It's free and works great and creates high res images, unlike some editors. The default native editor apparently saves in the exact same resolution as the original file. So that's another option if you want to keep full resolution and if you're happy with the editing effects offered by it.
I have attached a zip file with the original MPO file, the file converted to SBS, one edited with the native gallery editor (High Contrast option), then 8 images edited with Pixlr-o-matic. I have optimized the jps files using GIMP on my PC for the sake of file size for this thread, usually however the pics were about a meg in size each.
Hope you guys enjoy editing your 3D pictures!!!!!!!!
Awesome man Thanx....
Nice,I got some work to do now lol

Conversion
Sorry if it's off topic a bit (which it is, or I wouldn't say that right?), but I can't find the result I'm looking for ANYWHERE. I just got an Aiptek 3D Camcorder, and it takes pictures not in .JPS, not in .MPO, but a regular side by side .JPG! I'm trying to find an online tool, or application (I'm on a Mac but I could probably run it in CrossOver if it's a Windows app) to convert FROM .JPG to either .MPO or .JPS. The end result is I want to create a wiggle animated GIF so that I don't need glasses to show people 3D pictures I've taken, so if someone even knows of a process to convert from .JPG to an animated GIF wiggle that would be even better. Thanks in advance!

Rename the jpg files to JPS. Viola! JPS is the same as JPG just has the JPS extension to show it's a STEREO (S) Jpeg. There is an application for windows to convert stereo images here:

Good luck!

Hey bro thanx for the advice....
i vil try it and xperience it....

Ubuntu Touch PDF Zoom

I have a Nexus 7(3013) flashed with Ubuntu Touch.
In the PDF viewer I can expand documents to about 200% in portrait, a bit more ~250% in landscape mode.
I need to use the tablet primarily to zoom in and swipe around to view large PDF air carts and checklists with the tablet mounted on the control yoke.
Is there a file I can edit to allow more zoom % flexibility?
(can't do anything right now until I replace cracked LCD)
Should probably not be too hard to implement. You might want to talk to the developers of the document viewer app: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-docviewer-app
