N900 Videos

This video, from ubergizmo, shows nothing more than the N900 playing back a Nokia promotional video. As you can see, the playback is flawless.

According to Nokia’s N900 Technical Specifications, the N900 can play back a wide variety of video files (mp4, avi, wmv and 3gp) using these codecs: H264, MPEG4, Xvid, WMV and H263.

To ensure smooth playback:

• ensure that your WiFi or 3G network is fast enough, if streaming or playing from the network
• ensure that you’re not running performance-hogging applications in the background (multi-tasking)
• ensure that the video file is a suitable resolution and frame rate for the device
