MKV is just a container really. There are so many formats nowadays. Even MP4 itself contain over close/over 10 different profile. N9 also support MP4 but the old hardware says it all.

N8/C7/E7 video accelerator is much more advance than N9. MP4 also got few different profile and sadly N9 hardware support the most basic one. Last year when I got the N8, I was using Legend and it can't play a shit. Now, a year later, I have to say there's no reason we will face this again except to say that Nokia SCREW UP N9 ON PURPOSE. That's it...

Maybe an OS upgrade will bring it up to speed. There's a VLC Player under development which may solve most of the incompatible format problem. I hope it's not hardware related. But in the meantime there are lot's of converters around which you can use to convert to a compatible format. I find that Any Video Converter's (free) customized MP4 movie works well.

yes, I'm aware it's a container, I'm just expecting it to play at least even the most basic one since the site says it does.

like what I said, it's funny that when I on the Video Player it actually shows the thumbnail of the show, means it actually reads it.

It just refuses to play.

Darn thing about N9 also it the camera, can only focus once. once you let go, it takes the photo already. sad.gif Anyone got better way to do it?

http://www.developer.nokia.com/Devices/Dev...cifications/N9/ <=-- sez i can play MKV. so far i put 2 MKV files already inside but all cannot play.

on my first try. the fella die die cannot play. renamed extension to mp4 also doesn't help........... but strangely at one point, it actually shows the thumbnail of the MKV! but still refuse to play.


Added on October 12, 2011, 4:14 amok now same, I put the MKV file there. I can see the thumbnail but when I try to play it says WRONG FORMAT. hrmrmr..............

Not sure if there will be codecs available; For N900, after install codecs, it can play many types of file, then there is also mplayer, which can play even more types of file.
There's also substitles support.

In my-meego.com, there is KMPlayer available, but I haven't tried it yet.

As above mentioned, it can be resolved with codecs, and/or using mplayer.

mplayer also can, it's already available in older Maemo. The problem is it doesn't use GPU for decoding... So, it pretty much rely on the processor.

Surely not hardware related, since N900 which is much older, have no problems; Heard they even managed to get N900 to play 720p videos.

If you don't want it to capture, slide your hand away from the "button" then let go, then it won't capture.

Friends, just to let you know some of the games which were free in Ovi store and My-Meego have become paid apps. I don't know if or when the rest will follow but you may like to act on it.

Need not compare, it's definitely better, very obvious.

But for speed, smoothness, N9 wins hands down.

You don't need a camera as good as N8 unless you need to take some great shots (replacing your digicam).

N9's camera is already very good for some casual family candid shots and to upload to Fb / Twitter (N9 doesn't allow upload to Twitter)

I am considering this or the older N900 (Im not being sarcastic)... I very much prefer a physical keyboard, but worried that the older phone might have bugs and not supported anymore..
having the "latest" or older doesn't matter to me as long as fast device with good online capable...

n9 looks quite nice but its difficult to decide since i'm so used to physical keyboard...

how's the touch keybord expericne on n9?

thanks
