Need profile to work on my 52 Samsung 7 series lcd

[jonnybravo]

I would like a little help creating a profile to work on my 52 Samsung 7 series lcd. It has a feature that allows me to stream video from a usb drive or over the network. My problem is I don't have the knowledge to set the codec's to what my TV supports.
Here is a link to the video formats my TV supports: http://www.samsung.com/uk/consumer/learningresources/tv/mediasolution/wiselinkpro_usersguide.html

What I am trying to do is take my south park TV series DVD's and convert them to a format that my TV supports with good quality but under 2 gig.


Thanks

looks like xvid, mpeg2, .vob are all supported. rip your eps from the dvd with dvddecrypter and use the .vobs if they are under 2 gig per ep or convert to xvid, use autogk simple and easy to use.

I will give autogk a try was hoping dvdrebuild mobile would work.

thanks

Mobile can encode to any format supported by FFMPEG.

Thanks jdobbs for your reply. I do not understand these types of files very well. So I will try my best to get it to work. I see I can make my own profile and save it as Samsung. I think my problem is that I was trying to use .x264 and save as a .mp4 which my tv did not recognize that. After mech61 replied it made me think is the .x264/mp4 only for high def? So when I get home tonight I will try a xvid or dvix/.avi setting and see if that works.

From your link it looks like you only have two choices for resolution 800x600 or 1920x1080 -- but it should support an MP4 disc -- which FFMPEG will produce.

jdoobs would you beable to tell me what you would set a profile to as a starting point?

[jdobbs]

Take one of the existing H264/MP4 settings (like IPOD), change the resolution, and save to a different name.

I tried making my own copying your experimental changing to H264/mp4 and going into the moble file and adding res 800x600.
worked on pc but not tv. I think I have to keep h264/mp4 at 1920x1080. So I will try a avi/xvid at 800/600 next.
