Then film clips I take with my XDA II are in mp4 format. I want to view them on my desktop computer. Windows media doesn't not recognise mp4. I have used Quicktime (I think) in the past but didn't like it. What is recommended to play mp4 videos? Or how can I get Windows Media to play it, if possible?
try looking here

u can play real and quicktime files from Windows Media Player if u install the Real Alternatine and Quicktime Alternative :wink:
I have asked this question before but the problem was not solved.
I own a Panasonic DMR-E100H DVD & hard disk recorder that also records onto SD card. The output is an ASF MPEG4 video file format with G726 mono audio codec. My XDAIIi will play the video via Windows Media Player 10 for Pocket PC but there is no sound produced, so I assume there is no built in G726 decoder in WMP10 for PocketPC.
Is anyone aware of a plug in that can be downloaded or installed to help WMP for Pocket PC play G726 encoded files or has anyone developed software that will play .ASF files with G.726 audio codec? I have searched Handango and not found any application that will support this.
The only way I have managed to get to watch the files on my XDAIIi is by using Windows Media Converter to convert the .ASF file into a .WMV file with a playable audio codec. This process takes hours for a full length movie so it defeats the purpose of being able to use my Panasonic HDD recorder to record TV programmes to watch on the train etc.
Please can someone help or share their own experiences with Panasonic home video SD recording and playback on XDA software.
To help things along I have attached a short video clip in .ASF format as recorded on my Panasonic DMR-E100H this morning. Please try playing it to see if it plays on your XDA and let me know how your device is configured. Mine is a standard O2 XDAIIi with WMP10 for Pocket PC.

What video format does the nexus one read and where on the sdcard do we put them? Also what format does the camera output too when finished recording video?

Don't know about the first question, but the camera outputs 720x480. Try recording a video and checking your sd card to see the format.
it natively reads H.263 (encode and decode) MPEG-4 SP (encode and decode) H.264 AVC (decode), and no doubt reads many others with apps downloaded from the market. I beleive on the SD Card put them in a folder called "Video". Not sure about what the video output format is but I do know it is compatible with Youtube Uploading.

what extensions do those equate to? avi? wmv? m4v?
avi, mp4, not sure about wmv.
Just to test, I downloaded the 720P video of "Elephant's Dream" in MP4 format. . . AMAZING quality. :-D
http://www.savevid.com/video/elephants-dream-hd-1080p.html Scroll down and download the MP4 version.
Link says 1080, but pretty sure the MP4 is only 720.
DivX???

Im using a Mac and will be using doubleTwist (Also on PC)
Because it syncs with my iTunes but you can just drop and drag videos and it will convert to the correct format you
It will even detect your device as a Nexus One
MP4 is simply an encapsulation method, many MP4s are just going to be incompatible. There are pretty fine settings needed to get it to work, but I believe you'll want to transcode movies to h.264 or h.263 for video and aac audio, in 480x800.
If you want to be sure you can view the Nexus' videos on your PC, set up a youtube account and upload them after recording. Then you can log into your YouTube account and download them as MP4 (h.264)

Thanks, i try doubletwist.
where do we put videos on the sdcard, i cant find anywhere to put it.
Hey Blueman... I just plugged in the sdcard and made a new folder called video and put some movies and music videos in there. Once inserted back into the handset they were in my gallery, was pretty easy.

what format?
I always codec my videos to mp4 or m4v... I have loads of videos I've converted for my Omnia HD which are mostly mp4 and divx.... haven't tried any divx yet but the mp4's play just fine.
In case anyone needs an awesome video converter the best one IMO is format factory, which is free and has tons of presets and is easy to use.

m4v's aren't showing up on mine, they play the audio, but the video is not there.

i'm getting the same thing from an mkv file i encode. i do have some other mp4's working, but can't figure out the settings to get every movie working. how annoying. just support more formats!
why arent avi's supported?
Okay so I have the phone defaulted to go to PC mode everytime I plug it into the computer and I have Windows 7. When I transfer movies over to the Droid X, Windows 7 asks me if I want to convert the files or just transfer. I have been converting, but I have already encoded the files using handbrake and was wondering what is it converting the files to. Is it just optimizing the resolution or what is it doing?
tricky to say, I don't know what software your using for encoding obviously if you optimism for the same rez as the phone it will probably run a bit smoother because it doesn't need to scale, though if it's not encoded in some kind of a mp4 H.264 thingy you'll probably need a different media player to play it, like that xyplayer (does twister player do other codec?)
I connect and select usb mass storage, created a folder named Videos and just copied my downloaded episodes and movies there. DoubleTwist plays xvid without any problems. Just watched Ne episode of entourage on my way back home from work on the train.

OK, am I the only guy who seems to have a problem with watching a movie that I transferred to my external 32gb microSD?
The weird thing here is I can watch the movie (.avi or .mp4 format) from my external 500gb drive.
I've used moboplayer and some other player and they won't open the file.
Why is it, I can watch them on 500gb drive but not my external microSD card?
Any suggestions?
try rockplayer, i don't have too much video on sdcard, but i can watch it only with rockplayer (or some other exotic video player that i don't remember).
in my case (.avi file from internet) the problem is codec-related, the stock video player can't play this .avi file.
a
is rock player free?
i don't know!!!!! sorry!!!
maybe there is a lite free version? please check in the market (i try buy i'll see it linked on my phne/tablet and i see only "insalled"! also from pc browser!)
Mobo player... in settings change to software decoding
