			=== Arista ===
			[http://www.transcoder.org/ Arista] is a video conveter supporting out-of-the-box N900. It works basing on presets, among which are presets for N900. No need to download anything more.

			It's only known to support Linux. But, because it is written in PyGTK, it may be set up to run on Windows & MacOSX as well.

MKV is a superior format to both AVI and MP4, but is not fully supported as yet by the native Media Player in the N900.

	Support can be added by [http://maemo.org/downloads/product/Maemo5/decoders-support/ downloading the Decoders Support package] from Maemo Extras. However, MKV files will only play with mplayer which is still in development for Maemo 5/ N900. As such, it is not recommended at this time and there are significant performance costs when not using the built-in Media Player.

	The N900 supports a native resolution of 854x480 and does not support 1280x720. The actual limit is unknown, but using a resolution larger than the native resolution is not recommended as the resolution would be larger than the screen and therefore inefficient.

	To encode video that will scale nicely to the screen aspect ratio, you can use either 240x144 (slightly larger than QCIF), 352x208 (slightly smaller than CIF) or 400x240 (N800/N810 only). Of course if your source video is in a 4:3 aspect ratio, then you should stick with CIF (352x288) or QCIF (176x144). The video player will letterbox or pillar box as needed.
