I've taken some movies with the phone, saved in MP4 format.
When I try to play it with the standard HTC Album, it just doesn't play.
It plays sound, but for the rest is the screen black.
When I play it in TCPMP, I have picture and sound. So the codec is installed.
Does someone have had the same problem ?

So I've taken a lot of videos of my tilt, but I can't get them to play on my PC. They're in .mp4 format but they won't play in WMP, iTunes, QuickTime, or GOM Player. Anyone know a program that can handle these or what I can do to perhaps change the format the phone outputs them?
VLC should work.
After I move the video files from my tilt to my computer, I just rename the file from mp4 to 3gp, example: "video1.mp4" to "video1.3gp". It plays fine in quicktime after that. It gives me a warning that changing the file extension might make the file unreadable or something, but I haven't had a problem yet.
VLC (the aggressive player) will play anything you want, just get the right edition for you.
Click Here to Download VLC
VLC won't work. It plays the audio but the screen is blank. =/
That's odd, my copy of VLC plays the Video but not the audio....
You can upload them to youtube and myspace and they will play fine there...lol

dude wtf...why cant it just output normal video
Hello,
I have the same issue. I could not have VLC read the movies correctly.
I now use Mirksoft Mobile 3GP converter to transform my videos into avi format (with correct output on VLC).
It can be found here : http://www.miksoft.net/
Hope this helps
there is a quicktime codec for vlc, with this you have sound and video
if you want them to play in WMP, you need a 3ivx codec.

It's a trial, but it DOES work.
try this one Gom Player http://www.gomlab.com/eng/ it downlads codecs if you dont have them it should read any video.

hi all
is it possible to make use of the built-in camera mp4 (h264) encoder in a third-party app? the problem is: when i record clips using standard htc software (6.00 build 31516) it creates nice and small mp4 files but in case i want to record them with some other software utilizing the camera all i get is big asf file created with "WMVideo9 Encoder". no chance to select "mp4 encoder" .
any ideas?
regards
cosmos
Even I had the same problem I tried to see the video on real player and had no sound. Then i played the same video on VLC media player and I can hear the sound. Try the same video in different players. This is on my computer not on phone.
This is a decent site to take the mp4 and convert it to a different format. You could then move it to another program and play with it (i.e. once it's an avi).

Hi all,
I have downloaded some FLV files from youtube recently. normally i can open those files in my windows Mobile using TCPMP. nowadays i could not manage to open/play the files.
Just want to know if Youtube has done some codings so that the TCPMP are not able to read flv files or how.. looking forward for any reply..
Regards
I've noticed this as well. It seems some FLVs are now encoded with a new video codec. When you continue to play anyway you just get the audio, not the video.
"Player: Video codec (On2 VP6) not supported by the player!". This is with CorePlayer 1.3.2.
[size=-2]This was with a movie from justin.tv, couldn't find a youtube one this instant with the error. Pretty sure it's the same error though.[/size]
Anyone out there manage to play their FLV files using TCPMP? Wondering if there's any codecs to download for Windows Mobile to play FLV files from youtube.
Same thing, some youtube links just the sound is working, while the video is blank green color!
Even .3gp files extension plays the same, green video with sound only.

Hello,
Have you tried the latest version of TCPMP?: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9258263#post9258263
Has greatly improved in this regard.

Hi, I've installed some video players which claim to play different formats, but they faild to do it. I`ve uninstall them and decided to go back to media player, but now when I`m trying to play videos encoded with H.264 media player says Cannot play the file. Any ideea how to solve this?
I'm trying to play videos off my PC by loading the file in chrome and then using the chromecast plugin to cast or playing videos off dropbox using aircast.
Either way, I haven't yet found 1 video that will play sound. When using chrome on the PC, I hear sound on the PC, then once I cast it, sound stops on the PC and I don't get sound on the TV.
I've tried .mkv and .mp4. If I try to play an .avi within chrome, the video just downloads into chrome, but it doesn't play, so I can't cast it.
I guess only certain sound formats will play on the chromecast?
Does anyone have a sample/reference file that definitely plays from chrome on the PC to the chromecast on the TV with sound? If that works, then I know it's just the file formats I'm trying.
I get sound when casting netflix and youtube.
Bump, Anyone?
I even just tried converting an mkv/ac3 to mkv/aac and mkv/mp3 and I still didn't get any audio.
i got the same issues using Chrome. Like you said, netflix and youtube work fine.
as you said avi will just download, MKV with ac3 will have no sound but mp4 works ok for me, just doesnt automatically resize. which doesn't help you much.
Can anyone at all play an .mkv with any type of audio and get both audio and video working on the TV? If so, I'd really like to try that same file.
i've only tested with MP4. i was able to get sound and video to play on TV. not sure what codecs those videos are in tho.

Do you have a small MP4 that you know works that maybe you can upload here or upload to dropbox and share a public link for it?
i don't. what i was testing were episodes and movies i downloaded.
