I'm searching for a DVD SA (xvid)

BlumiTheRipper · 20th October 2007, 20:38

Hi everyone
I've got a huge movie collection. all encoded with xvid codec (some with QPel some not).
My questions are:
1. is there a website with a comparison of the chipsets in mpeg4 dvd players.
2. i heard that mediatek based dvd palyers can play xvid movies which were ecoded with the option quarter pixel turned on.
is that right?
3. Is there another chipset which can play xvid with qpel?
4. which dvd players are mediatek based?
please name some... (but remember i live in germany!so only name players which are sold there)

thanx a lot

PS: i'm searching for a good player (i got a xoro and it sucked! chinese crap!) maybe a philips or so)
it should be sillent while playing.

I own the 5980, don't know what chipset is in it (not in manual) but I'm guessing Mediatek.

It plays pretty much every .avi file I've thrown at it , think it even supports Qpel. No problems with VCD, DVD +R(W) etc. either. Also has a USB slot.

All in all a nice and cheap player IMO

@BlumiThe Ripper

Hi!

It appears to be a MediaTek chipset:

Thank you guys...
it seems that the DVP 5980 is mediatek based.

@prOnorama:
i will encode a little stream with xvid and my settings and i will upload it tomorrow and post you the link here.
Iw would be nice if u could check wheter it works or not.
Could u do that?

prOnorama · 21st October 2007, 04:13

Sure I can test it no problem

BlumiTheRipper · 21st October 2007, 11:08

God Morning

I've prepared 2 streams for testing:

Here is the first (xvid with qpel and b-frames):
http://rapidshare.com/files/64077996...ames_.avi.html

and here's the second (xvid only b-frames):
http://rapidshare.com/files/64078376...ames_.avi.html

I hope I know how to handle with rapidshare...
download the first file then restart your router or if u have dial-in connection log out and again in and load the second file...
it would be nice if u can test both files and give me a feedback wheter it works or not...

BlumiTheRipper · 21st October 2007, 18:17

Have u finished testing it?
What takes so long?

prOnorama · 21st October 2007, 19:31

Hehe relax I'm not glued to my computer ^_^

(I prefer sendspace.com over rapidshare, because you have to wait after you download 1 file on rapidshare and I don't have a dynamic IP)

Anyway, the conclusion:

Both files played fine both from DVD+RW & USB stick

BlumiTheRipper · 24th October 2007, 19:56

Sorry for being sooo annoying...
Tahnks for testing...
I will buy myself a DVP 5980...
It seems to be a good dvd player with great xvid support...

thaks a lot to all guys who helped me especially to prOnorama
