hello
I have a standalone player called Elekta 820 us/cs (don't bother googling it because you won't find anything)

my problem is that the player can't play Divx/Xvid that has N-VOP
I was fixing the problem by using avidemux to "unpack" the packed bitstream so N-VOP thing is gone and resulting my movies would be well played on my DivX player

BUT! I have problems with N-VOP Duplicate Frame(DF) which won't be fixed with everything I've ever tried on it

so I need to fix the movie without re-encoding
any solutions?
sorry for my English.I hope you guys understand what I want

cheers

does the player support .mp4?

no it doesn't, I just tried some files and they won't be played

and is there any way to make it play Packed bitstream? because I have lots of video files with that and it will take ages to fix them all

anyway if there's no way, I may buy a new player

thanks

....anyway if there's no way, I may buy a new playerAgreed!

Any good quality player should be able to handle encodes generated with N-VOP's (duplicate frames)....

All my players can play such streams placed within either .AVI or .MP4

You could request this feature from someone who makes a demuxer/remuxer type tool,

Its not a hard thing to do, replace NVOPs with what I call "emulated nvops", ie a PVOP where all the blocks are !coded.

We actually have a mode in our encoder which enables this functionality, but only at encode time because QuickTime has problems streaming NVOPs, or did in the past.

We won't be adding it to our muxer as we can already strip NVOPs, but the resulting MP4 has a variable framerate.

any suggestions ?
I need a new one , and that's a list of what exactly I want:
1) it must play N-Vop's correctly (booth Packed bitstream and duplicate frame)
2) support for xsubs and/or idx subs
3)it will be better if it can play GMC Xvid encoded files(yeah, I know it's a bit hard, but maybe there's cheap one can handle them!)
4) no need for USB port, all my movies will be burned on dvd's
5) no need for HDMI port, I don't own HDTV and will not own one soon
6)support for VBR streams like VBR MP3 or AC3
and what's the best brand? I hear everybody cheers for PHILIPS, are they players excellent ?

sorry for all these requests, I read the sticky topics but most of them are outdated now, sorry again

thanks in advance

frankly my piece of *beep* player can't handle .mp4

thanks for your replay

The problem is the variable framerate, if it wasn't variable framerate, then you could remux the mp4 into avi, and then your player could handle it. but variable framerate video can not be remuxed into avi while maintaining sync.
