Full screen video on PC

edtv1 · #1 02-06-2003, 07:45 AM

I just got a bluetooth donggle for my PC and installed nokia multimedia for the PC. Then I viewed the videos I have taken with my 3650, to my disappointment the size of the video on the PC is also as big as what is on the phone. Is there a software for a full screen video? Otherwise nokia has surely fooled me on their ad.

You can convert the 3gp video to an AVI and make it full screen but it will just be stretching the video to fill your desktop and it will look awful.

I agree with stevegreen27... the video quality of our phone isn't that good.. stretching it wouldnt' do anything better... it will just distort the video more.

How has Nokia 'fooled' you?

Video capture on the 3650 is meant for sending from phone to phone - with the option of sending to PC for playback - but the resolution will be the same as what you see on the phone?
It's only stills which are captured at 640x480

Unless Nokia are running a 'cheeky' ad where it gives the impression that the video is also 640x480 but I have not seen this myself?

I think the video quality is 174*132, not even 640*480. Phone video recording is not ment for STARWARS Episode III filming but for a casual video record you can share with other phone users, that's all.

Thats exactly my point - so why does EDTV1 think Nokia has dupped him??????

Thanks for the replies guys, you see here in the Phils. there's an ad on cinemas about the 3650 where it shows a person about to dive in a pool when the diving board gave in, and after that the group viewed the video on the PC showing it FULL SCREEN, so I guess there wasn't any truth to their ad. Thus my disappointment.

ooooh I see.
NAUGHTY NOKIA!

Ads like that will only lead to dissapointment!
Sorry you were duped, the 3650 really is a great phone!

stateside t-mobile has been airing commercials showing some woman recording her boyfriend freaking out as a hedgehog runsup his pants. she then sends it back to her parents who are viewing it on their computer at what looks like 640x480. btw, this was for the 3650. just wanted to clarify that.

Well if this is stateside I smell a class action lawsuite against Nokia coming up. Too many blasted lawyers in my second home.

T-mobile did a simular thing in the UK when they advertised MMS on the T68i - they showed a pic MMS'd to a PC and then viewed it as 640*480 -

The T68i only sends MMS's in tiny format 96*101 or somink.
It can send them 640*480 via e-mail, but then you don't need MMS!

Bit naughty - but the video one is worse than this!
