MPEG streamclip is the key factor here, just google to find it (free). Just follow the video instruction, but here's a basic step guide.
1. Copy the video URL into the "open URL" option in the MPEG streamclip program.
2. Select "Convert as MPEG4"
3. Select the following options in the big menu that pops up:
a) Compression - Apple Mpeg 4 Compressor
b) (clicking on the itunes button beside) select 3gp option on the bottom
4. Select the quality to 60%
5. Type in 15 in the FPS box
6. Select 44.1Khz for audio
7. Change the fram size to 320x240
8. Make sure all the other stuff is unchecked

Use the same settings even if your converting a 16:9 video, otherwise the video might not play or you'll get a black screen instead of video on your phone.
Remember, you can play around with all these settings, but these are the settings that I find best for me, give it a shot and thanks for watching.

  • does this work for the samsung rogue?

  • It might... Try it an find out, it uses the same "3GP" format, which is meant for mobile devices.

  • all this just to weatch the vid on the dare LMFAo when u can just view youtube on the dare by a simple hack thats way to much bullshit to go thru unless your lifeless lol

  • Educated people can often write profoundly and are usually more intelligent. You sir, have just proven that. You must have much less of a life to watch a video tutorial for a phone that doesn't even concern you. And yes, in life, we must put effort in the things we do, including putting videos on our phones. Also, care to elaborate on this "quick" hack of yours?

  • lol it wasnt a personal comment..i know more then a few people with the dare and you can view youtube just fine on it without doin all of that. LOL i just thought it was an awfully long process to do all that and then you go the extra bit to to talk shit behind a pc like so many others. especially when its the INTERNET NOTHING PERSONAL ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU DONT EVEN KNOW THE PERSON LOL

  • I didn't take it personally, but I felt as though I should have responded to such a comment. I can view videos on youtube through my dare's browser as well. But the quality is better when I download it, and I can watch it without a signal. You don't have to know the person, just write back a message : P

see all
