It will make the filesize slightly bigger, so try yourself whether it's worth it or not. You can use a single command to do everything, just like peikfeng already posted. Thanks for these instructions anyway! Setting resolution to 320×240 works perfectly. It will make the filesize slightly bigger, so try yourself whether it’s worth it or not.

So although the K800i has a higher resolution screen, I am not sure you can create a higher resolution file and still be 3gp compliant. The thing to do is to give it a go. However, please don't blame me if it turns your phone into a smouldering wreck :-) If it does work, a post here telling of your success would be appreciated.

Shouldn't you use 320 x 240 for SE k800i instead of 176 x 144 for better resolution? The vop expand=176:144,scale=176:-2 part sets the resolution.

By using Google Language tools, it would appear that it is a comment about Microsoft and Linux. Unfortunately the Chinese to English translation of Google is not that great. All I am sure of is that the first line mentions Bill Gates. Nope, I am note sure what that says. By using Google Language tools, it would appear that it is a comment about Microsoft and Linux.
