Dear Sir, As I know, Android only supports RGB 16-bit color depth format. Could Android play 24-bit color RGB format video and REALLY see 24-bit color now? If it is not, will it be supported by Android Donut in the future?

Currently, I am targetting the emulator to make Android application which is targetted for an Android device which includes 5" 24bit display. Only currently android emulator (or android in general) only appears to support 16bit. Meaning we are experiencing dithering issues why it isn't really necessary. Now my question can I somehow recompile Android 1.5 emulator image so it's using 24bit instead?
Or is this impossible without a lot of changes? Currently, I am predithering the images but no fun ;)
The company I work for produces allot of video and we want to target as many devices as possible, but the question came up of what does the Android do? I personally own an Android based phone running 2.1, but I can't seem to get the HTML 5 tag to work. Even when I can trigger the browser to playback the video it just throws a notification error that it can't.Are there guidelines to producing Android/HTML 5 compatible videos? Is it truly supported?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just received my HTC Desire on Orange, rooted and de-branded it. Works fine now, I'm on SW version 1.15 as otherwise, I get issues on Orange.
However, the color depth on my device is very poor, it looks like it only has 256 colours if that makes any sense? A bit like on the old PCs when you rebooted and your display graphics drivers weren't properly installed.
Is there any way I can reinstall display drivers on Android? I hope this isn't a hardware issue.
About the color depth on the Samsung Galaxy.
While it is advertised as having a 16 Million color display (24bpp) it is only running at 16bpp: $ cat /sys/devices/virtual/graphics/fb0/bits_per_pixel 16
Some say that it is a restriction of Android 1.5 itself which was only capable of supporting up to 16bpp screens. Android would be down sampling to 16bpp whatever the screen supports.
I've searched the available documentation over and over and can't find anything like that.
As I see it Android 1.5 would indeed be capable of displaying 24bpp images properly given that the screen is capable of and configured to do so.

I converted a DVD to MP4 and put it on a friends Motorola Droid and it worked great, put it on my Eris and I could see the icon but it said it could not play the video, like it was an unsupported format? I know the Droid is using Android 2.0 and the Eris is using 1.5, anyone else play MP4 movies on their Eris?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have not taken a lot of video with my Droid (I have Flip for that), and what I do take, I just watch on the phone. But, I may eventually want to play this on my computer or on my TV using a streaming media device. My current device plays a LOT of formats, but I have not tried any of my Droid videos. What format does the Droid capture video in? Is it the 3gp I have heard about? If so, I think that is one format I can't play where I want it. I heard that my wife's Incredible actually records in mp4, but then converts to 3gp, but there is something you can install which prevents that conversion and keeps it in mp4. Is there something like that for the Droid?
