Denna ska tutorial vägleder dig till och med kliver till att konvertera en existerande video sparar till en .wmv (Windows massmediavideo) för att leka på din Windows mobilapparat.
- Första för saker nedladdning först - Windows massmediakodare från Microsoft. Det är fritt. Det fungerar i 2k/XP, och though inte `officiellt', verkar det för att fungera fint i utsikt. Installationen är painfully rättfram - du ska klickar precis `därefter' en grupp av tider.
- När installationen har avslutat, kodaren för barkassWindows massmedia. Valt Konvertera en spara och klicka därefter REKO.
- Från Källan sparar: dela upp, klicka Bläddrande knäppas. Navigera till spara som du önskar att konvertera in i en wmv, välj den och klicka REKO. Den första tiden konverterar du en spara som du kan önska för att gå med mindre. Det ska taken mindre tid att koda, och, om resultera som är kvalitets-, inte är bra nog, ska du för att inte ha `att slösas bort' en raddatid. När du finner inställningarna som fungerar bäst för playback på din apparat, kan du konvertera större/longer videos med förtroende.
Standarden Tillverkat spara: ska känt och läge var identisk till mata in sparar, men med .wmv som f8orlängningen. Du kan ändra det känt, och räddningläge av tillverkad sparar, om du önskar, genom att klicka Bläddrande. Klicka, när du är lycklig med mata in och tillverkar sparar, Därefter.
- Du ska meddelas för att välja a Nöjd fördelning metod. För saken av att konvertera din första video spara, välj Fick- PC som metoden. Besegra vidare i denna tutorial (kliva 12) som jag ska går in i mer specificerar på att skräddarsy det kvalitets- av .wmv. Klicka Därefter.
- Granska info på Kodande alternativ. Du kan även önska att skriva det besegrar, så du kan jämföra det till den skräddarsy videoen sparar att du ska är pröva ut mer sistnämnd. Klicka Därefter (inte fullföljande).
- Enter the meta data for your video. This isn’t mandatory, but it does help when you’re searching for files, how they’re displayed in Windows Media Player etc. When you’re done, click Next.
- And now review all of the info for your video conversion. Remove the check from the Begin converting when I click Finish (so that you can preview the encoder window before it’s actually encoding). Click Finish.
- And here it is. The main encoding window. You can click around and explore the various options, but try not to change anything quite yet. You’ll want to create a default Pocket PC video, so that you can compare its quality to the custom videos you’ll create later. Click the Start Encoding button when you’re ready to convert the video.
- Make yourself comfortable. Or, make yourself a cup of coffee. Watching videos encode is about as interesting as watching paint dry.
- By default, the video will go through two ‘passes’.
- Once the conversion has finished, you’ll be presented with a summary screen. Here you can find the resulting file size, bit rates etc. Click Close.
- Navigate to the output file, and upload it to your Windows Mobile device (via ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center in Vista).
- Give the video a play. Watch it in full-screen and try to determine if the audio and video quality are suitable for you.
- At this point, if you’re happy with the resulting file - you’re done. If the quality is good enough for you, you can just repeat the above steps to convert more of your video files. Remember - the resulting file is never going to be better than the original file, but a lot of the time it will be smaller in size, and of decent enough quality to suit a small screen device (as most Windows Mobile products are). If you’d like to try customizing the videos to go for higher audio, video (or both) quality - keep reading.
- Using the same file that you converted in steps 1-14 (so you can compare the resulting quality), repeat the same steps (but choose a different name for the resulting file, otherwise you’ll over-write the first .wmv). This time when you get to step 7, again be sure to remove the check from the box labeled Begin converting when I click Finish. Click the Properties button and then select the Compression tab. From here, you can increase the quality of the video by selecting a higher bit rate. You can also increase (or decrease) the Audio bit rate.
- Click the Start Encoding button when you’re ready to convert your video again.
- And once again watch as it converts/encodes.
- Click Close after reviewing the results.
- Transfer the new video to your Windows Mobile device and compare the quality to the first video. Depending on what type of Windows Mobile device you have, the higher the quality, the harder it is for the device to play back the file. So files that are encoded at a very “high” quality, actually suffer by jittery playback on your Windows Mobile device. The trick is finding the right bit rate and quality settings that are best for your device.

Prefer to use powerful prog like MelodyCan (http://www.convert-any-media.com/index.php).
It converts different audio & video file formats. Such as wma, wmv, m4v, mov, aac, ra, aa, mp4, snd, aif, m4p, rax, wav, ogg etc. Moreover MelodyCan converts audio books, any format Media Player, any format QuickTime Player, any format Rhapsody or RealPlayer supports. It`s very simple to use.
Moreover MelodyCan converts audio books, any format Media Player, any format QuickTime Player, any format Rhapsody or RealPlayer supports. Now I can download YouTube files to your PC with MelodyCan YouTubeRipper.
Conversion speed and quality is very good. Also I noticed when playback window is partially obscured it doesn?t affect converted file. So as for me MelodyCan is a great solution to convert protected files - legally.
@Ann,
I have a sneaking suspicion you are somehow, directly or indirectly, being paid to make that comment, but I’ll leave it up anyway. You might want to mention that MelodyCan isn’t free, and it doesn’t “legally” convert copy-protected files, there’s no such thing. It’s either legal to do in your country or it’s not. The software you use doesn’t make it legal.
I’ll take the free program. Thanks Ross.
Hum. I have a slight problem that I get no sound. This has really helped me as I have an old iPaq I want to conver to use to watch movies when I travel from an SD card. I’ve tried everything to get a coverter that get my files to work with pocet pc media player 8, and this is brilliant, but the audio option is only for media player 9. D’oh. Any suggestions?
managed to sort it! jsut had to choose the voice option on the audio!
Thank you very much for this post. I trying to convert some flash videos to my windows mobile device.
Can you help?
Joel,
When you say you just had to choose the ‘voice’ option on the audio, where is the ‘audio’ you reference? I’m having the same trouble with my ipaq rx3115. It won’t play audio on .wmv files. I can’t find any voice setting on the ipaq.
Help is appreciated.
I’m also trying to convert movies to watch from an SD card on an iPaq when I travel. I followed your very helpful instructions but the resulting wmv file is only 6+ minutes long - a small part of the 80+ minute movie. What am I doing wrong? Thanks - any help is greatly appreciated.

lisa -
Can you view/play the original file ok?
no, but the reason i cant is because it’s in some weird format that my computer doesnt read. thts why im trying to convert it.
I’m trying just the basic steps and just keep getting errors
Any advise as I’m following this process step-by-step.
Error is Invalid or Corrupt data was encountered
This is great help to me… I’ve been having no end of trouble moving stuff from my PC to my WM5 device. I’m going to try this when I’m back home!
Copyright law does change from country to country, but I guess if you move from one country where downloading and sharing isn’t a problem unless you sell the content [like spain at present] then go to the US with the same content in a device this is where it gets a bit sticky I’d imagine.
Still, when mashing up copyright free videos [Day of the Dead] and those that have fallen out of copyright… http://www.moviesfoundonline.com/ for personal use [like making a documentary or music video [in my case]] then your help for this article is just COOL!
Thanks again!
