Hello everybody, I am a new Android user. I cannot play any mp3 which play well on my previous Nokia phones and I convert my video files using xilisoft video converter with nexus one's profile but none of the videos were able to play one the phone. Some of my apps disappear when I move them to SD card. Can anybody tell me how to solve their problems? Thank you very much.

Don't know how but somehow I've now lost the ability to play video (MP4) files on my SX66. Any thoughts to how to get it back. I had tried to install a MP4 player (PocketTV) but that does not see the files. The files are on a SD chip. Use to play but now they don't
Anyone with some thoughts?

Hi all,
I'm using last Cyanogen ROM on my DHD. I'm really happy with it but it's missing a working DLNA application. I have tried several apps on the market but none seems to work like the HTC one did. Would it be possible to extract HTC Connected Media/DLNA app from HTC ROM and install it on cyanogen? Would it work and how to install it in case someone could extract it?
The only app that seems to work is Twonky Server, a free app downloaded from the market. The only problem with it is that is unable to reproduce .mp4 recorded files with Cyanogen ROM, while it's ok with the .3gp ones recorded with HTC stcok ROM. Could it depend to a kind of incompatibility of Twonky Server or of my Samsung TV, where I use to see my media files?
Best Regards...
I stream videos and music to my DHD using the apps UPnPlay and VPlayer.
The Upnplay app can find your media server and stream, while the Vplayer app is able to play most video files including divx.

Thanx for your reply. But that's not what I was looking for. I found many apps that can share my DHD media contents with my Samsung DLNA TV. But there seems to be problems with .mp4 videos recorded with Cyanogen ROM. Stock ROM allows you to record .3gp files that are smoothly played on my tv via DLNA. But with .mp4 video I only get on my tv the message " unknown file format". So if there's someone who experienced the same situation and can halp me to understand the reasons of this problem, and maybe how to solve it, will be welcome...
Hello
I have many Music Videos on my Storagecard in my new Desire HD. On my old HD2 it was very easy to play all these Videos in Windows Media Player. Of course i can play this files on Desire HD but when one video ends. I have to manually select the next to play it. Isn't there a way to play the complete Folder/Album.
regards and thanks for help.
I have an unrooted HTC Desire locked to Virgin running 2.22.351.3.
I use Twonkey server on my laptop and Skifta or Imediashare on my phone.
What I would like to do is play avi files stored on my Desire over my dlna network onto my tv. But I understand I cant do this as the Desire does not natively support avi's, so the dlna software doesnt see the avi files. (something to do with "Android registry" not being set to deal with avi's). MP4's work fine as does music and mpegs.
My backup LG GT540 does work ok, as it natively supports avi's. Very frustrating!
Now, I love my Desire, so, before I go and buy a Samsung Galaxy S2 (which will work, apparently), is there ANY way to get avi's to work over dlna. (P.S. I dont want to convert the videos)
Many thanks in advance.
Apparently I need to update the Android Media Database so Skifta or Imediasearch will "see" the avi files.
Anyone know how this can be done? Is it as easy as an app?
Hi All,
I did a search and can't find an answer.
First off, I'm running stock build JZ054K with stock kernel and modem. I'm rooted and all, just decided to install stock stuff for now. Of course that's 4.1.2.
When I transfer video files to the phone memory or the SD card, I'm having trouble getting them to play back. I've tried MP4, AVI, Wave and have also let the phone convert them as they transfer. The AVI won't play at all, it just says this file won't play. The wave will but has terrible quality. The MP4 is really finicky. Sometimes they will transfer and play part way through, sometimes all the way and sometimes not at all. Could it be the stock video player? I also have MX player but it doesn't seem to do much better. In fact it general does worse.
Should I let the videos convert or should I just transfer them as is. I've even had videos I took with the phone that didn't want to play.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
When transferring files to your phone make sure to not convert... Download (and there are many more apps but my favorites are) MXplayer or DicePlayer and watch the videos through that... Not only are there options within each players settings that allow you to adjust playback options for optimization but then at least you don't have to convert files (a copy of a copy is quite like the original, etc)
