Watching video on an old Libretto
Usually if you try and play back video on an old libretto it will pause, have issues with syncing… basically a waste of time!
The problem is usually audio and all you need to do is re-encode your video file’s audio to use wav instead of say mp3. I know, I know wav files are huge! However by reducing the bit rate of your video, and in some cases the video screen size, you will probably actually only end up with a video file not that much larger than the original. The quality of the video file will be reduced, but the viewing experiencing is actually quite good and plays smoothly.
So what software do we recommend? Well there is always the ’super’ software. That allows you to select the container, codecs and settings, drag the file and et voila. The encoding might take a while on larger video files. So for instance mp4 (container), xvid (codec), 500 kbps (bit rate) etc.
Now this tip isn’t so you can watch illegal content on your libretto! It is so you can convert home movies or free content instead to watch on your old libretto.
