Will D2 videos play on the S9?

Garraty_47 · 03-18-2010, 18:41

I love my D2+, but I am considering an upgrade to the S9 for the larger screen. I have loads of videos converted to 320x240, which is the resolution the D2 accepts. Will these play properly on a S9? Has anyone tried this? Thanks a lot!

It will work, it'll just be smaller.

They will work, but you'll quickly find that the 320x240 resolution will be very difficult to watch on the S9 screen (I was a D2 to S9 convert, as well).

What's nice about the S9 is that it will place XVID AVI's as is, the majority of the time. The resolution doesn't have to fit the screen size, like we had with the D2. So, in my case, my DVD rips are XVID AVI's that play nicely on my PC, my PS3 and also my Cowon S9. No need to transcode anymore!

yes it will play all the vids of D2+,but to take full advantage of 3.3 inch amoled,you should think of converting all your vids to 480x272 or higher.

Exactly, the video will come out pixelated, but if you're in doubt whether your current videos would play or not, then yes, they would.
