Converting for Zen V Plus

Post by Prophecy » Wed Dec 27, 2006 12:55 pm

Can anyone help me on the settings to transfer movies to my Creative Zen V Plus? What settings do I need to put MediaCoder on?

Can't help you out because I wasn't able to find decent video specification for that unit anywhere on the web including Creative's website. But I did find out that it's supports AVI files but doesn't specify what codecs it supports. Not only that, I think it only support short clips, not long clips.

Actually I was able to put a full length movie onto it, Requiem for a Dream. It's in AVI format but I don't know what other information I can get from it. I used the Creative Video Converter too.

Wasn't sure the unit could playback long clips. I was basing the information at Creative's website. If you want to retrieve the information for the video file that Creative Video Converter created, open MediaCoder. Import the clip into the program. Then go to Item Menu--->Details of Selected File. Copy the information you see in the window and paste the information here.

Another way you can retrieve the information for the video is by downloading GSpot Codec Information Appliance. This program is very detailed.
