Welcome to this guide on how to recode videos for your S//E phone using NERO recode 2.
This guide will walk you through the actual conversionprocess - focussing on optimal quality rather than smallest filesize. This guide will teach you how to make the highest quality videos possible on K850 - not on how to get most videos on the phones.
Before starting the guide - here are some general info you need to know:
K850 are capable of playing both .3gp and .mp4 Videos - which is rather unique amongst mobilephones today.
.3gp and .mp4 are containers that can contain both a H.263 videostream and an AMR audiostream, or a Mpeg4 videostream and a AAC audiostream. H.263 video and AMR audio are lower quality codecs designed for low bandwith while Mpeg4 and AAC audio are highquality codecs designed for high bandwith - since K850 plays both we want to encode using Mpeg4 and AAC - and this is where NERO recode 2 enters the scene.
At the moment NERO delivers the highest quality Mpeg4 and AAC codecs on the market - and with NERO recode 2 they also supply one of the best and simplest encoding applications on the market today.
Now on to the guide :)
1 Start the aplication - and select Recode DVDs and Videos to Nero Digital
2. Under Nero Digital Profile - select Portable and uncheck the Fit to target selectionbox - then press Import Titles and browse to select the sourcevideo (or uncrypted DVD) you want to recode
3. Set the Video Quality slider as close to 200 Kbps as possible ., 400 is maximum recommended videobitrate, for smaller filesizes still with acceptable quality set bitrate between 300 to 350 kbps
4. Nero automatically select the best audio for your video - but you can check by pressing the Audio Settings button, and you will get this picture showing that it will encode in AAC LC stereo, its 64 kbits, 32000 - which is ok for normal use, you can select custom profile and select higher bitrate if you want better sound, for instance 80/kbits, 32000Hz, but dont go for a very higher bit rate or the finished video will stutter during playback. If you do want to go higher on audio quality then you have to lower the video bitrate .
5. After checking the audio we want to set up Video - go back to 3. and press the Video button to get to this picture. Leave the default Deinterlace setting of Disable as is.
7. Crop The Video as per Your Need Or Just Leave It As it is and Press ok
8. This is how it looks after youve set the cropsettings - now press the Resizetab
9.Select Custom Resieze and Set It As 320*240
10. Under Burn options select your target folder
11. Under Nero Digital Settings check the expert mode box and select High quality 2-pass, and extra quality under Quality/speed setting, set the rest of the setting EXACTLY as shown in the following screenshots, very important are the last screenshot where minimum keyframe interval is set to 50 instead of default 5. If you do not change minimum keyframe interval from 5 to 50, then it will make a keyframe for every 5th frame and this will make your video stutter during playback at these high bitrates.
12. The encoding starts and in a very short time the video will be done :)
