Thanks to e398mod for this guide..

Here is my simple yet very effective tutorial on converting videos.
This tutorial basically produces pretty good quality videos with acceptable audio with minimal lagging.
The only lag that I have encountered is on videos that exceed around 10 minutes so if you just have a few small clips this is perfect.

Things You Need:
Super (converting program).Can be downloaded from HERE (http://super.free.free.fr/SUPERsetup.exe) or HERE (http://download.videohelp.com/download/SUPERsetup200723.exe)
A connection to a computer (cable/card reader/bluetooth)

How To Do It:
Ok. Basically once you have installed the Super program you need to change the settings.
Once you have done that, it is just a matter of dragging a video into the area and clicking 'Encode Now'.
Once encoded, simply upload the file to your mobile (it helps to have a transflash card to hold the videos).
Note: The encoded video will appear in the same folder as the original video.

Settings:
1. 3gp (Nokia/NEC/Siemens) in 'Output Container'
2. h236 in 'Output Video Codec'
3. amr_nb in 'Output Audio Codec'
Video
4. 176 x 144 in 'Video Scale Size'
5. 11:9 in Aspect
6. 15 in Frame/Sec
7. 85 in Bitrate
8. Tick High Quality Box
Audio
9. 8000 in Sampling Freq
10. 1 in Channels
11. 56 in Bitrate

That's all there is to it.


Here are some other presets you may use. They also produce quality videos with good sounds (AAC). But,the phone will be slow in responding to volume up/down, pause etc..

Output Container : 3gp(Nokia/NEC/Siemens)
Output Video Codec : H263
Output Audio Codec : AAC

Video Settings

Video Scale :176 * 144
Frames : 15
BitRate : 75KBPS
Options : HI QUALITY + TOP QUALITY (tick BOTH)

Audio Settings

Sample Freq : 11025
Channels : 1
Bitrate : 24kbps


Also,

Output Container : 3gp (Sony Ericsson)
Output Video Codec : MPEG-4
Output Audio Codec : AAC

Video Settings

Video Scale :176 * 144
Frames : 15
BitRate : 96KBPS
Options : HI QUALITY + 3gp v4/v5 (tick BOTH)

Audio Settings

Sample Freq : 32000
Channels : 1
Bitrate : 32kbps

If you find any other presets to work great,please share ;)

thx..this is very useful...

great tutor bro

why don't you try AVI or RM?RM is easy to do and it is great quality,I'll post a manual+soft later


p.s.: imho 3gp suxx,if you have E2

I know how to make Divx 6.0 AVI files @ 24fps, playable with ZMPlayer...
but 3gp isn't bad, it's a light format...
Talking about image quality, the best format is MPG (ZMplayer plays mpg with no probs) but the downside is the big size of the videos.
RM must run @ 15fps because the stock player doesn't support higher framerates. That's good for cartoons or animations, but for movies simply SUX! :P

tnks very useful
super is complicated but now i understand hehehe ;D

SUPER can't run on my computer  :'(

tnx bro! it seems realy great.

try using others converter.. such as 3gp converter..

@taurnil how do you make divx 6.0 avi 24 fps? Pls tell us what programs n settings. I'm using avi too cos mpg too fat. Mine using plato video converter avi 400kbps 15fps n sound 96kbps works great on zmplayer but i never use 24 fps n higher rate of videos n sound

One more thing, how can i set the volume so my videos sound in the same volume. In mp3 usually i'm using mp3gain but i dunno for mpg or avi video. Thx before

dude...

i use the SUPER aplication....

it can convert almost all the type of video...
search it with google...

I use Virtualdub. You can cut the black bars (16:9 vids extended to 4:3), edit the vids, add filters, etc. I like XVID codec, using the handheld profile. That's like 384kbps. For Audio, I use MP3@128kbps@44Khz. That's enough for almost all the videos you'll ever need.

so how bout using Divx Encoder.. that is simple way to convert the video.. and that software is suitable for phone.. Avi only

Yo
I'm converting my videos to 3gp for my rokr e1 with Super; for me it's the best to do this 'coz u can make ur 3gp with stereo but... the videos will move slow, to fix this I used 12 fps and i got a good frame rate and dont freeze so much in volume or keys.  Well right now i modded my settings like the way in the attch and the video is really smoth and sounds clearly even with 1 sound channel.
If anyone is tryin' to get cool videos on the rokr, try this like a basic settin' and post what u got; if u have a better way i'd like to know it cya.
P.D.: I'm using MP NaN0 WalkMaN(updated) by ritza_ll who has a great sound!!!

thank you for the set
