Nokia 5800 XpressMusic accerated video decoders

[Gingah]

Hi,

Does any one happen to know if the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic has a h/w accelerated H.264 or H.263 video decoder?

If you happen to have a handset handy, this can be determined by running this public app

Cheers for any help.

Awesome, ta!

[MBFonz]

I'm working with a 5800 phone too, and noticed with my codec capture that it says on a few of the video codecs -"Codec does NOT support direct capture". What does this mean? Does this mean that you cannot use this codec to capture from the phone camera and encode it or something else? Knowing this will help me understand which codecs are actually viable to use for encoding camera video on the phone. Thanks.

Well, after playing with the codecs and video code a little bit, it appears to be that a "direct capture" codec is one that will directly connect to the camera and pull image data without needing you to specify an "input format". You specify an "output format" for the codec, but it does not need to be told what it will be receiving nor does it need to have any pre-processing done on the image data. It grabs and encodes to the output format desired and sends the compressed data on it's way. Can anyone confirm this understanding? Thanks.
