VIDEO PROBLEM ON NOKIA E63

Post by edo87 »

Hi Guys,
I just installed ScummVM v-3 on my Nokia E63.
I noticed two things:
1: I have actually two SCUMMVm programs in my applications directory: ScummVM1 and ScummVM2... why? is it normal.
2: When I open ScummVM the cursor is locked on the top left of the screen and the video begin flashing coloured dots every two-three seconds, so the program does not work...
Any suggestions/ideas?
Thanks,
Edo

Video could be a operator specific version of the E63 (pre installed software) which is causin the video issue. To enable controls, press green, then press M on your keyboard, green again.

Hi,
it seems that it's a common problem:

Is there any way to solve it?
Thanks a lot.

I know that some has been factory resetting their phones, some have started the video app or so. Just so it changes screenmode to a more compatible one. What happens now is that the phone is rendering 16 bit graphics in a hi color format buffer (not my fault). And thus all colours and stuff look funny.

what do you mean with start video app?
I tried to delete all the crap programs i had, the only thing i have now is skype and gmail but when they are closed the shouldn't cause any problem.
I've been looking for a program to change the screen mode, the number of colours, the video settings and so on but i didn't find it.
I don't have any other idea, i don't know how the source code is, but there is not a way to compile it with different video settings?
Otherwise i'm just gonna give up... Very sad.

Hi Guys, I've tried some of the older versions of ScummVM on my nokia E63 phone: that's the logbook

nw=not working

1.1.1 nw(video)
1.1.0 nw(video)
1.0.0 nw(video)
0.12.0 nw(rotated 90°, video, no control)
0.13.1 nw(rotated 90°, video, smaller, no control)
0.8.2-v2 installation not supported
0.8.2-v1 installation not supported
0.11.1 nw, same as 0.12.0
0.9.1-v1 and 0.9.1-v2 installation not supported
0.9.1-v3 expired certificate!
0.10.0 expired certifiate!
0.11.0 nw (video, rotated 90°)

With video i intend the colours problem stated in previous posts.
No control means that there's no way of controlling the mouse.
