Doh. This is a no brainer. I just noticed from your latest test that the iPhone does everything in H.264 (AVC, MPEG4 Part 10) vs. the Evo's MPEG4 Part 2 (ASP, note compatibility to H.263).

Nothing more to decide or test. H.264 is simply a superior codec.

In other news - while looking for H.264 support for Android, I did stumble across this:

CorePlayer on Android: playing H.264 Video | Droid Sector

So, I looked them up... Home-CorePlayer

Those following along will also want to see this:

CoreCodec Community Forum • View topic - CorePlayer for Android...

I read through that entire forum - very interesting.

Is it possible we'll have that Froyo? BetaBoy's comments did sound better as things progressed.

And just because I'm that way, yeah, I looked, and we're using the PacketVideo core in Android - What is Android? | Android Developers

So.

MAYBE we will be able to buy an H.264 _encoder_ for the phone, in future.

And then we might get closer to the iPhone's video performance.

Maybe. Might. Future.

BTW, I'll just say it again - Ser reemas, I hope you're thoroughly satisfied with yourself!!!
