OK, so I have recorded a Video on my phone and can see it with the PPC Media Player v10 on it.
I get this .mp4 file to my PC. Now what? Windows Media Player has no friggin support to view .mp4 files!
I found alternative viewers, that all nice, but how do I convert this so I can see it on any pc or inclusively upload to lets say YouTube?
Try Quicktime....
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/
VLC media player...
Thanks to both of you. I tried both, and VLC actually has no audio...
Re: Quicktime, yes, it is pretty ubiquitous, but requires QuicktTime to be installed.....
I need to convert this to something more portable?
I changed to the other format.

what , where?
In the settings of your camera you can change the format it creates. Put the phone into video mode and then go into the camera settings.
You just need to get the right codec pack to enable Windows Media Player to support .mp4 files. A quick google search for 'windows media player mp4' turned up what looks to be a good howto on the subject:

I see. I will give the h.263 a test.. not sure yet what characteristics this codec has... let me google it...
Great. Now I am able to see the video on my PC... but still haven't found a nice (aka free) conversion app that would allow this to be seen on other computers.
Anyone with good and free application suggestions?

I envy you guys. I still own my O2 xda iis and like it very much. I wish I could afford this. I just want one that's unlocked.
The KLite Codec Pack, which is really handy (tons of codecs in one install) gives WMP support for the MP4 and h263 vids. 3GP can only be played in Quicktime, I belive. Quality wise, they should all be about the same (pretty terrible).

I am just curious to see what you guys think is the best video player to watch videos on my computer that I recorded on my Tilt. For some strange reason I am unable to hear audio when trying to view a video on my computer. When I use TCPMP on my phone I am able to watch the video with perfect sound.
Any ideas on how I can solve this. Tried to use Quicktime, Windows Media Player, and VLC player and still can't get it to work.
I've been using KMPlayer for a good while now and love it. I've not found anything else more configurable and it's nice to the system resources. Definitely worth a look.

Video on Vista..
alltheway, THE only video player to use on your pc is thru the K-Lite Mega Codec Pack which uses Media Player Classic, all the codecs you will ever need and a nice little player to view, check it out..

K-Lite Mega Codec Pack (www.codecguide.com) as duncstar mentioned is the best solution. What's good is that you can also play any media file using Windows Media Player (ie: no need for Media Player Classic).

So called video pros would say any codec pack is grabage, but it's definately not a good idea to have multiple codec packs. K-Lite Full with quicktime and real alternative is probably the best combo. quicktime alternative 1.67 to be more specific because the ones after that stopped playing some cell phone movies correctly.
What is a good program to run both mp3 and mpeg4 files? I have audio manager but it only plays my mp3's and not mpeg4's is there a patech or update for that? If anyone can let me know of another program that would be great.
There are so many to choose from...

There are a host of decent MPEG4 players for the Pocket PC/Kaiser. The commercial apps really are the best as they include a multitude of extra features.
Try googling for 'Best PPC Audio Player' and compare.
For a freeware player, TCPMP is your best bet as it also plays most video formats, but is an ugly looking player.LoL
Try Pocketmusic Player here:http://www.pocketmind.com/pmfp.htm
Thats great! Thanks.
Commercial but the best for me!

I don't think there will be an update to AUDIO manager, to enable it to play video's.

I've read that setting the offset to -250 fixes this.
The offset helps, For me it varies on the video & can range from 125 - 275.
In my opinion the commercial Coreplayer is best. However, they kinda screw you on a few things that they don't include unless an OEM/ODM includes it as an OEM package.
So for me, it's a combo of Coreplayer & TCPMP.

Hello everyone,
when i transfer videos that i've recorded from my diamond to my computer, there is no sound in the video, is it normal?
Thanks for your answers.
have you installed all codecs for your computer?
Like kazaa-codec pack?
Check in the camera settings if you have: Record with audio on or off.
@ riel
i haven't yet installed the kazaa codec pack, i've just tried to play the video from VLC and Windows media player.
@sergio pc
when i play the video on my Diamond its ok, there is sound. it's only when i play the video on my computer that there's no audio.
the video format is not compatible by default with desktop windows media player and hasnt been for years on HTC devices - a real pain. One of my early devices allowed me to choose to record in AVI which was great.
You can try selecting the capture format to H.263 because I think from memory it is more compatible but I think the quality is worse.
I did notice when nosing around in the registry of my Diamond that there was some refernce to AVI in the camera settings. I started a thread on it to see if we could get AVI enabled but no one seemed that bothered which I thought was strange.
Sorry forgot to say that they do play in Quick Time ok which is bl**dy frustrating as I hate Quick Time (and iTunes!!!)
forget that - I cant seem to get them to play in Quick Time anymore.
Try using http://www.mediaconverter.org/ or an offline tool like Xilisoft

you are off topic... you dont have any problem related with your Diamond but with your PC media player....
try to google first .... like "k-lite player"
Good luck and enjoy you Diamond !!!
Here's an article on how to use videos taken from your Diamond - both adding codecs on your PC and converting the media to an avi file (from PC or on your phone itself): http://www.fuzemobility.com/?p=981
thanks a lot guys, i've downloaded kazaa codec pack and it's working now
Thank you all it worked great with me too after downloading the K-Light.
can I ask you where you downloaded the kazaa codec from, as usually so many come up when you google it and most look dodgy, any help!

I got a feeling noone got it right; Its K-lite codec pack. It includes media player classic and works.
i had the same problem in a Mac.
Just changed the extension to 3gp and all is fine.
I need some help finding a media player that plays Realvideo VBR files. I have been using the search. I can't seem to find anything.
Anyone???
did you tried coreplayer
greetz
to me coreplayers is a fine video player and i think he can also play VBR files

I agree. I don't have video, but audio works fine.
Can anyone make -
RealPlayer
Version 11
work on our phones????
I think you won't get any software work with new Real Player as the codec driver never release to Windows Media Platform so far, i heard is becoz due to the license agreement between Nokia and Real. Correct me if i m wrong, i also hope i can play rmvb file in my phone instead wasting money to buy a device just for doing this.
i found some files and reg from somewhere and got rmvb to run on my fuze, but it is really slow. Not sure if it's worth it. PM me your email and i could send you the files.
hey i just got hold of my captivate....i was using an iphone earlier and itunes was a bliss....i cant seem to figure out how to use the samsung kies to automatically sync music,songs an videos??

If that doesnt work (I havent tried doubletwist) maybe one of these apps might work.
I dont have my captivate yet (never owned an android phone before either) so let me know if any of those work out.
if you manually add your media to your device, you can arrange it however you want....beauty of android=its yours to do with what you want

By videos do you mean movies? If that's what you're doing then I use DVD Decrypter to rip them to my laptop then AutoGK to convert them to XviD. I just leave all settings default and set the size to 1CD (700MB). The movies play fine and it's not like it's taking up too much storage space.
I play .avi due to its file size.
Otherwise I don't miss itunes except for pod casts.
Now I can put what media I want on my sdcard and don't worry about it.
You get used to it.

Drag and drop is the perfect way to put anything on any device.
The fact that people want junk programs (especially one like iTunes, which loads a chunk of it's bloated self at startup and slows your computer down) is mind boggling.

Try isyncr. It doesn't require a program on your computer and will sync play-counts and ratings back and forth. I really missed iTunes myself and this helped with the transition.

Isyncr is by far the best especially if you add the wifi tool for a buck I think...never even have to plug phone into computer just walk into house and click on wifi app and auto syncs what you select
Edit....Of course that requires a wireless network

hey can u please lemme know from where can u download .apk files for apps and games? ? ?i just learned how to do sideloading....
Put me down as another iSyncr supporter. I like using iTunes to manage my music library, but not lock down my device.
In handbrake, I've had good success with using the default iPhone preset, but changing the horizontal resolution to match the source video (up to 800). A high quality 2hour movie runs about a gig that way. Medium quality is about 400mb.
