MMS Video Capture Mode
The MMS Video capture mode offers some additional options that make it convenient for
you to capture a video file and then send it via MMS.
Press the Action button on the front of your Pocket PC Phone, or the Camera button on the
left side, to start recording a video clip.
To stop recording manually, press the Action or Camera button again. However, because of
the fact that there is typically a filesize limit for videos to be attached to MMS messages, the
Camera application has a fixed pre-set file size for videos captured using the MMS Video
mode. The recording process will automatically stop when this limit is reached, if you have
not already stopped it manually. The Time Indicator in the lower left area of the screen will
tell you how many seconds are available for the next MMS Video capture.
The Capture Format can be set to either
H.263 or MPEG-4 in the Camera Settings screen,
but H.263 (3GPP) is recommended for sending via MMS.
After the video file is captured, the Review screen will appear (shown on the page after next).
To send the file via MMS immediately, tap the Send icon. This invokes MMS Composer,
with the new video file already attached and ready to be sent.
When you select H.263 as the Capture Format, only Landscape orientation is available:
Ambience has been set to Auto.
In this example, MPEG-4
is selected as the Capture
Format. When recording in
MPEG-4, you have a choice
of either Portrait or Landscape
orientation. Portrait orientation
is shown here.
Capture Sizes for MPEG-4
video format are:
n L= Large (240 x 320)
n M= Medium (144 x 176)
n S= Small (96 x 128)
This example is medium size.
Capture Sizes for H.263 video
format are:
n M = Medium (176 x 144)
n S = Small (128 x 96)
This example is medium size.
