Would love to play this game, but the resolution is too great
Has it been optimized yet? Any low res copies about?
Thanks in advance dudes.
Yes. I have 3.1.0 version without "HD" behind.
But had one problem with world map... wasnt able to select destination Therefore wasnt able to play it much
I've got a few of the 3.1.0 version and they're all too big for my screen
i have it running but display is stretched freaky, so it's not like satisfied one
anyone got it? i still have the world bug =/ i really wants to play that game

u can still play it even world map bug exist
by using dual touch, drag the world map picture at up-right corner(don't release) then touch the center of the screen
you would see flashes of the picture
afterward, try to touch the upper part of the screen by luck and you would able to select another location although graphics not pasted properly in world map
Hi all,
I thought I'd write this up since Handbrake worked GREAT for converting videos, but every 3D video it converted never outputted audio! It could well have been my fault, but either way this solution is fast, free, and (IMO) a bit more user-friendly. Special thanks to the user who pointed out Freemake.com (I can't find his name now, started with an N. I even messaged him but XDA's not saving my sent messages? God I'm a noob....)
Anyway here you go, this method was flawless for me, I've got about 5 3d movies now on my 3VO with gorgeous sound (Resident evil afterlife is my fave so far):
_____________
1) Download Freemake Video Converter
2) Locate a 3D video file.
-Make sure this is a SIDE-BY-SIDE video--meaning that if you view it NOT in
3D it just looks like 2 images side by side. IF your source video is like
that bluish-redish kind...sorry I don't know how to help.
3) In Freemake, click video--then browse your computer and find the video you want. I've been using standalone .mkv files; I'm guessing this will work when grabbing files off of 3D blurays too though?
4) Double click the video and it's put into the Freemake queue.
4b) Load up more files if you want
5) Now click "to Android" at the bottom of Freemake
6) A box pops up. Click the button under the word "Preset" and go all the way to the bottom and "Add Your Preset"
7) Make name your preset something appropriate like Evo 3D. Now use these settings:
-Frame size: size up to
- Width: 960
- Height: 540
-Adjustment: Original
-Video Codec: H.264
-Frame Rate: Original
-Bitrate Type: Custom
-Bitrate (Kbps): 1500
Then for audio, click the "Custom Audio" button and use these settings:
-Audio Codec: AAC
-Channels: Stereo
-Sample Rate: 48000 Hz
-Bitrate: 256
Click OK and it should save your new preset. Now choose where you want to save your converted files (note: you can't change the file names of your converted files at this point I don't believe). Note that this conversion will leave your original file INTACT.
Click CONVERT and THAT'S IT! You're Done! Check the status bar, but after about 20-40 minutes a regular movie should be done.
Now just plug in your Evo 3D, access the SD card from your PC, and copy/paste the newly converted file onto your SD card (What most of us do is create a new folder on the SD card called "Video" and then place all our converted files here).
Use GALLERY to watch your movies--it should find the files automatically. When watching, it will usually start by playing the file as two images side by side. Just hit the options button and choose "3D", confirm, and there you go!
NOTE: Not all of the above steps/settings may be necessary, and there are probably some great ways to improve it...I only went this route because the route everyone else was taking (using Handbrake instead) never outputted audio for me
Note: if you're looking for 3D movies, search for "side-by-side" or "SBS"...that should be helpful. Some have suggested signing up at 3dtorrents.org, and I agree that that site is worth investigating...
GOOD LUCK!

...wow, was I the only one that Handbrake wasn't outputting audio for ????
Works great! Dumped Handbrake for this. Love the way it uses my GPU so my CPU stays low on usage (Handbrake took almost 100% on all 6 cores).
Awesome, so glad it helped!!
The interface is much less intimidating too, IMHO.
Thanks for this. It works great
Great to hear!
Has anyone else seen better or worse results using different audio settings?
Oh, and something I forgot to mention: To get the aspect ratio correct on your EVO 3D, you may need to go fullscreen beFORE entering 3D mode (in Gallery, of course).
Best,
Panamaniac
I followed OP's direction to convert the mkv to mp4, I used the gallery to play the file, I chose play in 3D, but it still played the image top & bottom, no 3d effects.
Handbrake audio wouldn't work for me, but this works perfect!
OK, so your initial file was a top/bottom, not side-by-side (SBS) file, is that correct?
That might make a difference. But first, try this: play your video in Gallery, make sure it's in FULL SCREEN mode, then tap the options button and choose to view in 3D, then confirm.
Do you know a website where I can DL a sample top-bottom 3D video? I haven't seen these before but I've heard of them. Is there an abbreviation for them?
Thanks!

Yes, the initial file is top & bottom, I got it from SBS. I played the file in Gallery in full screen mode then chose view in 3D, no luck, but still thanks for your help.
SBS Stands for side-by-side. When you say you got from SBS...do you mean 3dSBS.com? I looked into that site but downloading seemed like a huge pain..!
So the source file is top-to-bottom?
The bottom line is that I've heard the EVO 3D can't do Top/Bottom 3D files but I have not confirmed that.
OK without having a top-bottom source file to tinker with...
My hilarious but possible useful suggestion is this: after you load up your video into the Freemake queue, click the edit button on the right side (has scissors, etc). THEN click to start watching the video once the edit window pops up and....
HERE'S MY CRAZY IDEA: Rotate the video 90 degrees! Then the two images will be "side by side" now instead of "top to bottom"....
Of course the ratio might be a little weird, and you might have to watch the whole thing as a smaller picture on your phone...but fiddle with it and let me know what you think. In a perfect world that would make you now be able to watch your move in portrait, it'd just be a very tall movie (so then you'd have to lock rotation..plus I"m not even sure gallery let's you watch in portrait so...GLHF there!)
If you want to dropbox or PM me a top/bottom file I'll take a look, but like I said I haven't found any yet so....
Good luck!!!

I got the file from 3DSBS, the clip was the Sports Illustrator Swimsuites 2011.
Ya that site was a nightmare for downloads, I tried to get part 1 of the Swimsuit and it took...10 hours? ppf NTY.
Anyway I did some digging and the short answer is that there might be some really LONGGGGG arduous ways conver over under to side-by-side but I sure didn't find any easy ones.
Since I worked so hard trying to find a solution here, you gotta do me a favor---turn your file 90 degrees, then convert, then try running it as 3d and tell me what happens?
Nice write-up
I was using HandBrake with no success. The audio was consistently patchy.
Going to give this method a try now
Thanks.
Thanks!
Yeah, I never heard anyone else complaining about the audio from the Handbrake method, but I'm assuming that's because most people were only converting 2D movies. All I know is I followed their guide exactly and never heard a peep.
Please let me know if anything doesn't work. Currently I don't know of an easy way to convert over/under 3D video (the limitation here I think is the Gallery Program itself).
Wow thanks for this. I've been looking far and wide!
Awesome, glad I could help!
And like I said above, if you find an easy way to convert over/under 3d for use on the 3-VO that'd be great to add to the knowledge base
I did the exact steps you mentioned but the video conversion didn't seem to work.
Freemake reported that the file would be around 1298 MB but the end file was only 200-something MB. Viewing the video on my phone (and PC) shows a video that is all black, but with the audio.
Anyone else get that problem?
im lost on #2, if we are trying to create a 3d video where are we suppose to be locating a 3d video file
I am still lost on the source video. Please explain to me how to implement this step. When I choose video to convert I am choosing a regular video format right. Where does the source video come into play.

Im taking a long flight soon, and will be bringing my TouchPad with me. I was wondering what the optimum setting was for converting video's to play on the TouchPad? What codex and resolution is best for good video? Also, what video player (I installed Kalem) and the name of a good conversion program ppl like to use. Thanks in advance!
Why convert? Kalem plays both those just fine.
If you want to convert though, I recommend Handbrake, and just using the iPad setting.
Tks. I have been doing video's on my HD2 (android) and you need to convert them in a VERY spacific way or it will play like crud. I know this HouchPad has quite a bit more power (OC'd to 1.7) but im just making sure. Converting movies can take a lot of time and I dont want to sit there and constantly convert one over and over to find the best settings.

Unfortunately, to help me you have to download the vid. I don't have an acct on youtube to upload it or set it up there (The file isn't huge anyway) any help would be appreciated!
If you watch the recording, on the top left of the video there's this little white spot.. and I believe it's a software issue. First of all taking pictures - That dot is NOT there. It's only there when I use it to record.
Second, I tried a diff camera app (this one is really weird) such as "lg camera" and if I record using that app, it's there. The WEIRD part is IF I record once, stop it, change to camera mode and then back to camcorder mode, the spot will go away.. I'm assuming it isn't dust or anything under the lense (I hope!) and if anyone knows anything about this.. I'd really appreciate the help! I won't die if it's there, I use the camera a lot more than recording, but the quality is surprisingly pretty decent for the atrix and I'd like to start using it if I can get rid of this dot!
Thanks
I'm pretty sure I am not breaking the cardinal sin of asking a stupid question with an answer right in front of me. If I am, I am truly sorry. I searched, and did not find any threads on this.
I recently modded my TP with CM7 (I'm very new to all this). Everything went fine, no issues here.
I plan to use it to play video's from time to time, pre-loaded in case there is no net at the location, etc. I use astro file manager on my phone, and since I love it, I grabbed it for the TP also. Problem is, it really seems like it cant see anything.
I am thinking the folder path mappings are off or something? I see that I can define where I want "external storage" to look, (default is... /mnt/sdcard)?
I even tried to take a screenshot and got... "Error: /mnt/sdcard/tempshot.bmp (Permission denied)" Screenshot saved to null
Anyone know what I'm missing? Thanks!
-- Ps, if I can get this sorted out, my main question was which video files are supported for playback with this CM7 rom through the TP.
These were answered before, but for the most part buried in threads. Your external SD is actually listed as EMMC and it's not in your primary directory, you actually have to go up one.
Android should play most formats it would normally, but as this is still alpha, there is no hardware video acceleration, so anything higher resolution then a internet video will most likely be choppy.
There are some video players that people have had luck with, and overclocking the processor also can help until we get hardware acceleration.

Ah ok. I was somehow able to get the stock filebrowser to see my directories without a problem after I poked around a bit. I then ran into what you already answered for me . Video's do indeed seem choppy... I think I'll try to reduce the quality of an avi I have and see how that go's.
I'm not ballsy enough to OC anything. It took me a lot of guts to flash the damn thing anyway, thanks for the heads up though.
-- figured I'd post how it turned out.
I used Xilisoft HD Converter and converted using the android specific output setting, and 640x480, runs great using double twist.
