ZMoviePlayer 1.0.0

The zMoviePlayer midlet is a J2ME video player. This midlet is MIDP 1.0 compatible and should work on all j2me compatible java mobile phones. The midlet can play both compressed and uncompressed movies. For a handset to support compressed movies, it should support image transparency. Whereas all uncompressed movies can be played on any java mobile phone.
Most popular java enabled mobile phones support transparency like Nokia 3510i, Nokia 3410, Nokia 7210, Nokia 7650, Siemens M50, Siemens C55, Siemens S55, and Motorola T720. Some devices are known not to support image transparency like Motorola V66i, V60i.
zMoviePlayer midlet can play both b/w and color movies. Results of playing a color movie on b/w device are not guaranteed and it depends heavily on how the manufacturer has implemented color approximation. Also playing a movie on specific handset depends heavily on display capabilities of the specified handset. Color handsets offer usually between 256 and 65536 colors.
zMoviePlayer midlet has two different packages that could be used differently by operators and telecom companies:
REAL TIME Movie and Video Player: The midlet can play movies in REAL TIME at 4 fps (frames per second) on GPRS connection at 40kbits/s if it uses low resolution movies (96x64 pixels, 80x80 pixels) with 256 colors. It will run at about 2 fps on GPRS connection at 40kbits/s if it uses high resolution movies (120x120 pixels) with 256 colors.
Delivery of Small multimedia content: Deploying small movies to mobile java handsets. In this case the movie is bundled in the midlet itself. This option is optimal for delivering news, greetings, short video clips, advertisements, animated screensavers, personalized messages. Imagine for example an important football game between two teams, and one of them has just scored a goal. Now we can provide mobile users with the ability to view the scored goal on their mobile. In this solution we are only limited by the max size of the midlet (on most devices its 64k so we can show approximately 12 seconds).
