hi, ive got a XDA2 and am trying to put movies onto it, i installed divx pocket but when i transfer the movies to my phone they still dont play? ive managed to find 3 movies that would play in windows media but apart from that ive had no luck, and divx isnt working at all? any ideas why?
thanks
yes dont! use media player
use pocketMVP and pockettv
media player should only be used for ms's own audio and video formats which is pretty much the only stuff it plays

I've been trying to get .asf files to play on my Wing... how can I make it happen
I don't watch movies on my phone, so quite frankly I haven't messed around with this... but if they don't work with Windows Media Player, try installing Core Media Player or one of the other alternative media players on your phone.
asf files
I already have tcmp player - and it won't play it... real one player won't play it, divx won't either
I have searched all the threads and there are lots of folks that have problems or questions about moving video to their ppc, I want to do the opposite. I have taken some video and want to move it to the PC. When I do that via activesync the video will not play in medio player or quicktime. media player will play the audio not the video. Media player will not recognize the file on the ppc either.
How can I conver the video?
att 8525
try playing it with vlc player link
half way there
The vlc player will show the video, but it does not pick up the audio. I also would like to get this into a format that could be shared easily, so I would still like to convert it.
if you want to convert then i suggest you try www.videohelp.com
ok, i have tried dozens of codec packs and cannot get videos recordrd from my hermes to play on my pc. i have found how to get the video but cannot get sound at all... can anyone point me to what i need? thanks in advance.
also i am running CRC's rom version 12r9. not quite sure how to find the camera software version though...
**edit**
here is a link to a test file i just created, somehow i need to find out how to play the sound..

i had success playing all mp4 files using quicktime
i had the exact same problem. any video i transferred to my pc would not play. quicktime would play 3gp files, but not mp4. no other software would play my mp4 files except for vlc player. i'm assuming it's an error in my windows installation or registry. i'm gonna transfer a couple vids to one of my laptops and see if they play on there. then i'll know whether or not it's due to my windows installation. if they play on laptop, i'll do a clean install of xp and see if they play.
Super will play them as well as the newest realplayer....
Hi
Why u not try Ultimate Media Pack or Classic Media Player? U can get this soft on www.9down.com
download quicktime OR download and install this then you can play the vids in wmp on your pc
http://www.free-codecs.com/mpegable_DS_decoder_download.htm
I had the same problem, I just rename the video files from .mp4 to .3gp on my computer and it plays them just fine.
Okay, I'm not sure what the deal is. I just realized that the videos I record on my Hermes won't play on my PC. I've tried different codecs for it, as I have wmp11, and I have tried different media players, but the only thing that will play the videos I record on my phone is wmp10 on the phone itself!!! This is nuts! I don't want to just view them on my phone!! Does ANYBODY know a work around for this??? I don't want to have to move the videos I take onto my PC so I have space on my storage cards, and then have to move them all back to my phone when I want to watch them!! Please help!!!!
install KMPlayer on PC
Install KLM mega codec pack (free ). Should support most codecs and is better, & less painful to use than WMp ....
Cheers...
Awesome. I'm going to try it, but does either of you know if there is a codec that will allow me to watch the videos on wmp11 on my PC?? I'm assuming the klm codec will have it's own player to watch them. I want to be able to share the videos with friends. Should I get a decoder??

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Okay, both of you are AWESOME!!!! I was completely wrong!! The videos play perfectly in wmp11!!! Not what I was expecting at all!!! Gracias BIG TIME!!!
No worries... KLM Codec packs just give the pc the codecs so ALL players can utilize them unlike standalone players that may have proprietry codecs...

i remember just dragging n dropping avi movies on my Blackberry bold ..i can just play the movie and enjoy it.
but on X1..the Windows media player says 'cannot play the file'
why?
isnt it supposed to be more friendly with such formats?
NO..i am not willing to pay for a software just to play a world famous .avi format.
avi
simple answer is NO you can not play avi's out of box. you have a couple options....either re-encode the video to another format or dl a different player. I like coreplayer and i know alot of other people like it as well. some people just get the divx player but you have to know what was used to encode the video as avi is only the container file and not the encoder.
most of my videos are DivX encoded...
so is it possible to install DivX codec on X1 and then play those files?
really sad but..i thot i can just drag n drop the movies on my mSD and watch
yeah using coreplayer or TCPMP
not sure if the codecs works with windows mobile media player though
but those 2 players does the job
Okay thanks a lot for the quick response guys.
i got hold of Coreplayer....just wanted to try.
it works..i just dragged n dropped some TV shows and movies ..and they work fine
i have yet to see such an awesome clarity on a mobile phone.
this is even better than bold because i can see the movies in widescreen and the contrast is superb
