Nexus 7 Audio/Video / How to take a DVD to N7?
« on: August 16, 2012, 11:50:55 AM »
Could someone give me some pointers on getting a playable file onto the N7 from a legally owned DVD? I'm a total noob on video.  The goal is create playable file(s) for transfer to the N7 so they can be played when it has no network connection.  I have Digiarty's WinX DVD Ripper Platinum v 5.1 (not the current version) on a Win7Pro 64 bit PC.  It can output to AVI, MP4, MPEG, WMV and FLV.  There are options for video quality, frame rate, resolution, etc.  MX player and the ARM v7 CODEC were installed on the N7 From the suggestions on Shinhing's thread on personal video.

Can this be done?  What would be the best choices for format and resolution?

New Member Introductions / N7 as 3rd Android device, no more hogging the Nook Color
« on: August 15, 2012, 12:18:02 PM »
Hey Everyone,
The Nexus 7 is my 3rd Android device.  I went for the 16 GB version in order to run the SkySafari Pro astronomy app.  That takes up 1.3GB the 8 GB N7 wasn't an option.  My wife's Nook Color proved the form factor to me, but of course I wanted a real Android tablet with better hardware. 10 days in I have no complaints except the vertical only home screens.  I'm not sure if I'll wait for a Google fix or get some rotation software.  Android started for me with a Droid 2 and my current phone is a Droid 4. 

My portable history goes back to a Palm IIIx, with its monochrome 160x160 screen and 8 MB (yes, megabytes, year = 2000).  IIRC the price was the same as the N7 16 GB. Then a Sony Clie with 320x320 color followed by Moto Q and Samsung Saga Windows phones.

I'm in IT with a small company in the Northeast US. It's good to have a growing community here,
Bob G
