https://market.android.com/details?id=com.cyberlink.powerdvd.PDA110624_02
Anyone know if this will play x264 or 1080p rips?

Who cares?! At that price there's no way i'm going to bother.

theres a free version as well

Saw this...looks promising....but 20$ is a bit steep, though.

T-Racer HD

I saw this game featured in the nVidia Tegrazone application and thought it looked promising. Now I see its finally out and getting trashed in its market reviews. Anyone here give it a shot yet?
Also if anyone has some game recommends I'd appreciate it. I'm a long time PC gamer and I've found the contemporary "casual gaming" trend abhorrent compared to the quality and depth I'm used to. While still fairly poor at least the iPhone had some legit games. Anything worth playing on my Atrix?

RipTide is a very good game. Fun factor is great and graphics are amazing and smooth. Galaxy on Fire 2 is expensive after the initial free part but its very fun. The game offers 6-9 hours of gameplay and building up your ship gets addictive. Check out gamelofts website, its got some good games that you woudl be used to from your iphone.

[Q] Best Handbrake Settings

Can anyone provide the best Handbrake settings for ripping DVDs?
I'm interested in opinions as well on this matter.
-
Back when I had my Captivate I used these settings:
http://capfaq.com/w/Transferring_movies_from_DVD
I put these movies on my Note and they're all still excellent quality. I was assuming that the quality my suffer due to the Note's large size, but it's still great. And with these settings, I'd say about 75% of the movies I encoded were less than a gig and most less than 900MB.
Am I missing something? What does this have to do with the Note?
The note...being sent down to us by the gods (why...what gods you ask? Ill tell ya...the AMOLED gods, the robot gods, and the HD gods...and they frown on crabbiness.) and being so well endowed, is quite the media consumption device. What the OP was trying to figure out...was how he might best take advantage of such a wondrous and surely godly device.
And the movie industry...being ungodly as they are, makes an all-hands-on-deck effort to obfuscate and obscure any clearly delineated path to enjoying popcorn-tasting-finger-licking-goodness on the go. For this is their only purpose in life..besides, making movies, of course.
I might add...high profile is. Lovely. On the same subject... I've only used CIFSManger and allshare in combination with TVersity to play media...i use Netflix on the go. But Im curious as well...does anyone know which format and container is required to play native HW decoded video on the note? Does the container event matter? I know i can usually find a video player that can play any video file, but i have issues with .Mkv the most...and the pseudo-5.1 audio and the native player is nice....real nice.....really really niiiiiiiiiiiiiccccccccceeeeeee.
HW decoding is always a plus. And its easier on the battery too.

I was just wondering if anyone had encoded any of their DVDs to play on the Note. I've used Handbrake previously to watch movies on my Captivate and thought someone might have played around enough to have optimal settings for the Note. Using the settings I had for my Captivate, the picture/sound quality is pretty great on the Note.
I use MakeMKV for both blu rays and dvds. (correct me if im wrong) as far as i know, it's like flac. Compresses the video with no loss of quality in both video and audio.

For me its abuot file size. While I have been able to get a 64gb card to work on the GNote, I still am limited by the fat32 4gb restriction, so I am interested in settings for compression. I have many downloaded files bigger than 4gb.
You just answered a 13 month old post.
Yeah, well now we have his opinion. Better late than never.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus?

Is this tablet quality?
I'm looking for an android tablet right now and i'm not sure if this is the right one for me. It's $300.00 at Best Buy which is a nice deal for the specs it has in my opinion.
Should I get it? Or are there any better ones?
It also says that it has 8GB DDR2 RAM!?!? Is that true?
I'm fairly pleased with my WIFI version.
It has 1GB of RAM (775 MB usable for me)
I picked mine up from Best Buy as an open box item (+ $50 off sale), so the cost was very reasonable to me and definitely convinced me to pull the trigger on this purchase. That's still a fairly good deal IMO.
Options for customization/development with this tablet are currently limited. However, you can expect a legit ICS update for this tablet from Samsung sometime in the near future.
What purposes do you have in mind?

I plan to play apps and watch movies. I plan to use this tablet for fun. Such as apps like Dungeon Defenders, Zenonia, etc...
Some high intensive apps. Will it handle it?
I've tested 720p and 1080p mp4 hd movies which played smoothly off SD or USB flash drive with the OTG adapter.
I also tried out Dungeon Defenders, and that was also smooth. It took a long time to download.
This tablet will probably suit your needs.
I hope this is helpful.

[Q's] Kids Videos App

Just have a couple questions for Android owners with kids.
I've created an app that plays kids videos from YouTube that I've found to be appropriate for children (hasn't been published yet). I've currently searched and found 60+ videos that would be ok and the list would certainly increase over time.
The app doesn't use the YouTube player so that the child cannot find inappropriate videos after watching their selection. Using the back button will only get them back to the app and when the video is done playing it will also return to the app. The app wouldn't have ads either. So, it is a little safer way to turn a kid loose allowing them to watch videos.
Would this be of interest to you? If so, would you be willing to pay for it? If no, why not?
I think many parents can be interested, since it's an easier way to entertain your children that convert and copy the videos manually.
You can sell it for few money (<5 usd? a good price, I think). If you make a free version, don't put ADs (many of them are inappropiate too).
I would suggest a free version with less videos and then a paid for a dollars that had the whole library

I appreciate the responses.
@RoberGalarga I definitely want to keep any version ad free as that is a problem I've had with other kids apps. That and in game purchases!
@zacthespack Good suggestion. I was contemplating that idea and will probably do the trial version with a small amount of videos and a full paid version with a larger number of videos.
