Program to recode from .avi to .mp4/.3gp & embed subtitles

I need to find a program that can recode from .avi to .mp4/.3gp , resize to 320x240 and embed subtitles in the video.
I have tried several with bad or no result. If you know of such a program I would be very happy to know.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467112 << try this. not too sure on embedding subtitles. never use them so far.
If anyone interested the solution is:
PocketDivXEncoder: Resize & hard-code subtitle embed from .avi to .avi 320x240
Yamb: Transform file format from .avi to .mp4 without recoding.
hello,I suppose you can try AVI to 3GP Converter.

But I did not understand if there is a software to convert an avi to an mp4 or other extension compatible with ALL Android device
Handbrake is a good program for converting video's
Re: AVI to MP4
Hi,
I think you can search the "AVI to MP4" keyword in google, then the best choice will appear in the first page normally.
Refer to video converters, I often use Kvisoft video to flash converter to do MP4 to FLV conversion, AVI to FLV conversion etc.
With the video conversion software, I can convert videos of any format to FLV flash videos in batches for better online sharing.
Good benefits of Kvisoft Video to Flash converter:
1. Convert Any Video to FLV and SWF
2. Edit Flash Video as you like:
Watermark video with text and image;
Merge various videos into one;
Crop video size;
Clip video into smaller parts;
Adjust the effect of video.
3. NO quantity limitation, so batch conversion is allowed.

Play video files with srt subtitles

Hello,
I have a lot of video files that have separate srt subtitle files. Is there an app that plays these files?
If not do you know/use a windows app that burns the subtilte into the video file?
Thanks
Try meridian player. It shows the subtitles when the srt is in the same folder and has the same filename.
Thanks for your reply, but unfortunatly the subtitles aren't displayed with the movie. I have the 2 files in the same directory and with the same name :
dmd-eastern.M4V - dmd-eastern.srt.
If I play the movie with for example VLC then the subtitles are displayed in the movie. The playback quality is ok, but the app always crashes when I quit a movie.
I am now looking for a tool that burns the subs into the movie. Any suggestions?

Captivate divx certified?

I have read that the captivate is divx certified? Is this true do I need an app to make this happen or is this going to be added with froyo? I hate converting files after downloading..... Just too time consuming
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
The question to ask is, whats the container, whats the file size?
Generally a full length movie seven hundred mb or so, not sure what you mean by container but I am downloading from a windows vista or seven box to my phone
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
I've played multiple xvid files (each 300mb+) and they've run perfectly fine, so I'm assuming that divx would run fine also.
just download a media player app from the market. i think rock media player or whatever it's called can play a lot of different encoded files that the stock media player can't even recognize

no, the phone is divx certified AS IS. rockplayer isn't required. the default video player app will play xvid and divx by default. and I believe it's even capable of mkv 1080p files
i can verify that a 2.1 gb mkv file encoded in 720p runs perfectly
I've also had a problem playing xvid and divx files (each ~700mb).
they are all labeled avi's. I've tried 3.
I am having problems too trying to play Divx files. I am having issues with the Divx files that I made that are from my movie collection. Here are the characteristics of the files I have been trying to use but they just wont work:
AVI container
Divx Codec (used AutoGK)
AC3 audio (I tried MP3 also didn't work)
File size is between 1-2GB in size.
Can anyone tell why I can't play any of my Divx files? I am transfering these files to my memory card through Windows and then putting the memory card in the device. I would think since this is Divx compatible this should be a no brainer since the files work on a PS3 and Xbox 360 without a problem.
So far only Rock Player will play my files.
Divx doesn't work for the Captivate

Actually I have to disagree. Either I am doing something completely wrong, but there is no way this will play Divx files consistently. I have been tooling around with it for 3 days now and I get nothing but inconsistency. So here is the scoop.
All my divx files are AVI.
All files converted with AutoGK and Divx Codec
Some have AC3 sound others are MP3
Typical file size is between 1.2-2GB
The ONLY files I can get to play on this thing consistently are Xvid encoded files. I have tried Divx files with 2 audio channels, 5.1 sound and none of them work. Heck I even downloaded one of the Divx files from www.divx.com Big Buck Bunny (mobile version) and that didn't work. This did play an HD MP4 that I had but wouldn't play the sound I am guessing because it was AC3.
In the end I don't see how this phone is Divx certified if I can't get a Divx movie to play unless I use Rockplayer, which I don't want to use because that is all CPU and not GPU being used for playback.
For people who do get it working, are you putting the movies on the phone a special way or something?
I play divx and xvid files on mine fine with the stock media player. No converting....just copy and paste.
Actually DivX Plus HD certified
Actually, if you read the press release, the Galaxy S is DivX Plus HD certified. Hence it will play MKV/H.264 just fine. Why they support DivX Plus but not standard DivX, I have no idea. According to specs for Captivate on samsung.com, supported formats are MPEG4, AAC, AAC+, H.263, H.264. Xvid (AVI) seems to also work for most people.
Options for standard def DivX seem to be convert to mp4 or other supported type or use a non-stock video player that supports DivX.

What size are your divx files that you are playing? I am curious to see what the disconnect is with the content that I have.
