Enjoy HD video with subtitles on Windows Phone

Enjoy HD video with subtitles on Windows Phone


I am not a heavy video user on the go ( on my Windows Phone ) , I usually spend the time listening to an audiobook or trying to play games that I need to review on the windows phone games site. But I am sure there are quite a few guys / gals out there who would rather watch a movie / TV show on the go. Apparently the automatic conversion of videos for Windows Phone done by Zune might not always be the best possible quality and there are other ways in which you can convert the video so that you get the best possible audio and video experience on your Windows Phone.

This guide by fellow xda-dev member rvmax shows us how we can apparently encode a HD video ( 720p or 1080p ) and hard-code the subtitles in to the video so that we can see that on the phone. We will be using a free Open Source software called VidCoder.

Fix Youtube WP7

Fix Youtube WP7

Now some of you might be wondering why would anyone need any special instuctions to get Youtube Videos to Work on Windows Phone 7 ? All you need is to download the Youtube App from the Windows Phone 7 Marketplace and you are all set to go. Unfortunately its not that simple for some of us. When we installed the WP7 Youtube app it works well when you launch the app it goes to mobile youtube and you can play videos but if you try to play a video on a web page with an embedded youtube video, WP7 does not display the thumbnail and play button to launch the youtube app.

WP7 Tip : Data is disabled when in roaming

In a recent post on windowsphonesecrets by Paul Thurrott he has given some insight in to Roaming on WP7.

On the StatusBar there is a triangle that indicates you’re roaming. Windows Phone 7 automatically disables data access while roaming. But if you want to enable it there is an option. Go into All Programs, Settings, Cellular. There’s an option called “Data roaming options” which is set to “Don’t roam.” Just change that to “Roam” and you’re good to go.

This is a nice little feature to have and will prevent those nasty data roaming charges.
