    What setting for .MP4 using Magic Video Converter??

    What setting do you use for best video when converting video files to .MP4 using Magic Video Converter?? To play on Nokia N95 8gb.



    After you have chose to convert to MP4, you can chose a load of diffrent "setting/format" for the MP4 file. But what would be best?

    MP4 Video loading too long

    By your system specs, you only have 2 GB of RAM. You need more for playing media seamless other wise you will get a lot of buffering. First the player is loaded into RAM, then the data to be played is loaded, at the same time you have to have room for system processes.
    I guess your system is paging to the disk(virtual memory) and that is slowing everything down.
    You should atleast double the RAM up to 4 GB, the sweet spot these days though, is 8 GB, for multitasking(surfing, playing media, using an office program at the same time).

    Hi there

    probably poor / slow HDD's here -- I often find it amazing but people spend $$$'s, £££'s €€€'s etc on CPU's, RAM etc and then scrimp on HDD's. Poor I/O will KILL even the fastest system. If you have the fastet internet on the planet and a mega SUPER computer you will still be twiddling your thumbs if the Disk I/O is poor.

    I assume the machine you are running on does have sufficient power to play video -- even 1080p full HD ripped blue ray (around 3GB with a decet quality RIP) plus subtitles should play decently fast on a modest laptop with decent SSD or HDD - USB3 HDD's are OK too (usually).

    Lack of RAM will of course exacerbate any slow HDD performance --you really should up the RAM to 4GB minimum for any sort of decent video playing - it's usually simple to add more RAM to a laptop even if its only got one slot - 4GB laptop RAM modules are common enough these days. Ensure though it's compatible --if it's a really old laptop that uses DDR2 RAM then you are hosed - as I don't think DDR2 modules for laptops were ever made in 4GB modules --and even for desktops the older DDR2 memory is actually MORE expensive than the more modern type. Check that your new RAM is compatible with the machine though.

    Cheers
