Hi,
I had a mp4 video encoded at 800*480 resolutions.
When i go to file manager and access the file directly it plays normally on the HTC album software itself, but when i navigate to HTC album is is nowhere to be found.
Can anybody tell me how i could make my video show on the HTC album itself so I can access it on HTC sense.
Thanks

Either put the video in one of the folders Album recognises (Videos, Pictures) or launch Album and press the Albums soft key to select the folder where the video is. I have several mp4 videos and they all show up.

I tried this but it doesn't work. It briefly shows "wrong" sign in an empty square when i select the video folder, then nothing at all ???
Any idea ?
I'm having an issue with HTC Album whereby recording videos works fine and their thumbnails are created but selecting the videos within HTC Album doesnt play them. Pictures can be viewed fine but not videos. Tried a soft reset which still doesnt do anything. Tried a hard reset which cured the problem then after a short while HTC Album refused to play the videos it created again only allowing me to tap on the video and then it just sits there not doing anything. Any help much appreciated.
I have same issue's. video's taken bij the camera no problem. Copied video's 800x480 for example the helicopter video, won't appear. others do!
Only MP4 & 3GP (H.264 AVC) videos encoded with the Baseline profile (using x264) will show up. H.264 videos encoded with the Main or High profile will briefly show up with an error and disappear when opening the Album or the folder they're in.
The Album can still play them though.
Or at least, that's what it does on my device. Camera videos are encoded using H.264 Baseline and AAC. Would like more input for that.
To fix, either open them manually (Use a file explorer, look for your video, open it with HTC Album (\Windows\HTCAlbum.exe)) or reencode your videos using the Baseline profile.

I'm not actually converting any types of videos for playback on HTC Album. The videos I'm referring to are the ones recorded by the HD2 camera itself and by default show up within HTC Album but refuse to play even though their thumbnails are present and visible.
I have the same problem as you are describing and wondered how I caused it. I have installed Core player and all the videos taken with the HD2 play without any problem.
I have changed some of the links in the program folder to suite my own preference but none of the links were broken. When I open a video via HTCAlbums, the screen goes landscape with a "loading" message showing, it also plays what just sounds like static.
Not sure what I might have loaded that is causing the problem, a couple of programs are "Change screen" and "hComber". I don't want to hard reset so I'll start by uninstalling these programs unless someone stumbles on to a fix??
Same here, records but does not play back. Has anyone found a fix.
Cheers
Same issue here. HD2 from T-Mobile Germany. This is ridiculous & very annoying.

I had this issue it was caused by the YouTube app I had installed, don't know if there is a fix.
Video playback not working
Did you ever fix your video problem?
I have same.
I can't play back video taken on my Fuze ever since I loaded a WinMo 6.5 ROM.

I am haveing the same problem,brand new htc wont play the videos i record at all any one found a fix.. really like everything else about the phone dont want to send it back becuase of this....
I also have this problem (or a very similar one). I can see the video files in HTC album, but pressing on it does nothing.
If anyone knows the cause or solution I would be very grateful.
Same here......I just returned from a week skiing in Italy, where I shot some videos of a nice girl dancing on the table outside at -5 degrees celsius wearing a mini skirt and a mini t-shirt
We were all packed in multiple layers of clothes and skiing outfits and we weren't really warm.
She must have had lots of 'schnapps', cause she didn't seem to be bothered with the cold
Anyway, I shot 3 videos, the first 2 display fine, but the 3rd just says 'Loading' and then nothing happens anymore.
1st video is 10.6 Mb
2nd video is 4.5 Mb
3rd video is 12.6 Mb (this is the one that doesn't play)
It doesn't matter if I play the video from Photos and Videos using the slider, or from Albums frm the Start Menu, or from File Explorer.
Then I hooked up my HD2 to my PC, and copied the 3rd video to the PC where it plays fine in Quicktime. However, I've noticed that the first 32 seconds of the video has NO sound. Sound pops up after 33 seconds, so maybe that's what's causing these issues in HTC Album ??? Or maybe that the recorded size is a factor ???
Same annoying problem here!!!
Don't know what caused it because it was working fine before, maybe some program or tweak I installed...
Thumbnails of my videos show on the album and Sense but when I click on them nothing happens, the videos worked fine before and I can still view them on CorePlayer.
¿Any ideas?
I had this problem when i installed the You Tube cab. I uninstalled it and HTC Album and video worked fine
When you talk about the youtube app you mean the HTC youtube app or the Original Youtube app for windows mobile? the one you can download from the mobile youtube web
I can confirm that at least in my case it was the HTC youtube app that was causing the problem, it seems I have to choose between youtube or being able to watch my videos!
I just wanted to know if anyone else on the forums has been having problems playing embedded YouTube videos. When I click on the video it launches the HTC player, the video fully loads but the video stops a few seconds in and restart, this goes on. Occasionally a video will actually play all the way through.
This video I had problems with:

I have no problems playing videos on the YouTube app, is there any way to just make these videos play using the app instead?

Just out of curiosity, since the X10 doesn't support flash (hopefully, that will change someday), then how is it possible to watch videos on youtube with the youtube app?
Does it stream the content using h.264 or something similar? Is the youtube app a standalone flash player?
Sorry if this has been answered before, but I couldn't find anythig but rants about the X10 not supporting flash when I searched the forum.

good question maybe is like in winmo
or because youtube and android are from google maybe a trick is hidden there xD idk
You could ask the same of USTREAM , BBCi PLAYER and MPLAYER (beeb player) and how does SKYFIRE stream media from sites?! as they all do the same
the mobile app essentially streams the 3gp version of videos from the mobile version

to my knowledge, it uses some mediaserver thingie, which apparently worked on my dumb T700 as well..
THAT phone certainly doesn't support flash, and when it failed to stream it says failed to connect to mediaserver..
The videos on youtube are all converted from the original format to various other formats including H.264 and that's what is streamed to modern phones.
On the flash player they're playing a .flv file, which is just a container for the H.264 video. (Also, youtube always keep the original file on their servers in case they change change something and need to reencode, eg. if they increase the max resolution or something.)
Thanks for the replies everybody. Now I know.
/and knowing is half the battle.

Hi , I have recently Installed the JIT compiler and from then my pre -installed Youtube is not working properly. As soon as click on the video from Youtube app...it keeps on saying loading video and never loads..i installed the custom app from other sources but no luck .help me in fixing this issue.
I have installed this rom -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=814285
and had also installed the famour Azure 1.0.1 by aliba
i found both couldnt play some mp4
so my question is that does android support mp4 playback ? if it does how will i put it in my current rom [ i have tried 3rd part video players , it failed].
and what video extensions does a normal aOS support ?!
Thanks
Android supports mp4 playback.

but my default player aint playing mp4..are their certain resolution tht video need to be in ?
AFAIK, mp4 is a file container and many things depend on the codec that was used to encode the video file. Personaly i'm using Handbrake to encode videos for watching them on my Legend, so if you want i could share the "proper" preset for this task.

I'm using Any video converter and MP4 (x264 / aac)
I found out that for some reason x264/mp3 doesn't work...

please share it or suggest some converter.
I installed Rock Player yesterday, which supports more file formats. I haven't tried a lot but it plays my downloaded Simpsons episodes just fine. They're in Xvid btw.

Does it work well for you? I got the free version and sometimes it loses audio/video sync...Any issues like that?
It works well but I've only tried short videos like tv show episodes. I read that longer complex videos might lose av sync at some points.

Download and install Handbrake (free app). The preset is attached bellow this post, (if you're using Windows Vista / Seven) move it to C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\HandBrake
Use preset called "Legend". Good luck
EDIT: don't forget to extract attached file.
is there a better player than rockplayer?
videos that arent 480x320 work incredible bad on my legend. itself the 5800 had a better video playback function than just every player i tried so far on the legend.
