Hey Guys,
I have an HD7 / Zune / Windows Movie Maker 2011
Now i have got a few videos i would like to put accross to the phone so i have converted them in Windows Movie maker to "Windows Phone Large" standard (which is only 640 - 480) now when i try to copy them to my phone, it works and i can watch the video on the phone but its NOT full screen, its just over half the screen.
So i customize the resolution in Windows Movie Maker to 1270 720 (which is the resolution of the movies that the phone records and they are full screen on playback)
now when i try to upload them from Zune, zune tries to convert them into something else, but never NEVER sucessfully, it just hangs there.
I am yet to be successful in copying over a movie that will play full screen, so im stuck with a little box in the middle.
Please Help
Jason
Can someone please help,how can we play divx on the hd7?
how can we put video's without convert?

Ok. I recorded some video on my AT&T Tilt with a memory card. It plays fine on my phone. Well I want to get it on my computer. When I tried to, it was in the MP4 format. So I opened it with Quicktime and iTunes and it wouldn't play. It said there was an error. So I was gonna convert it. I tried to, but it gave me a warning saying that it would have no sound, so I didn't do that. Then I downloaded VLC Player and when I played the videos, they didn't have sound. I tried putting them in Windows Media Center, didn't work. I tried ActiveSync. Didn't work. There has to be some possible way to do this. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!
Same thing happens to me. Now I just record in the other format, QIF I believe. And that works fine.
THANKYOU!!!!!!!!!!
how did you even get "good" video playback?
how did you even get "good" video on the TILT? is it the change in file type that makes the video better in itself? where do you change it?
You can change to CIF by selecting it from the Capture Settings menu (hit menu when the camera is running) under Resolution. The capture format can be changed from MPEG-4 to H.263 if you go to Advanced > Capture Format.
Recording in a well-lit environment helps. I'm not usually affected by placebo, but I and a few other users have reported increased camera performance after installing the latest test drivers for the Kaiser from htcclassaction.org. It DID seem that the framerate was higher. I can't rule out the possibility that updating to windows mobile 6.1 may have made a difference, but I know I don't keep apps running in the background and the comparison whilst not scientific would be pretty fair.
What can be used to view H.263 on the home pc? Will media player play it? And is there a good reason why it just doesn't record to .wmv or regular old mpeg? As you can tell I am a moron when it comes to video.
VLC will read it

QuickTime will play H.263 encoded files.
The Tilt does not use WMV or MPEG because they do not have formats optimized for mobile devices, so the files end up being huge.
Thanks, that makes sense!
my mp4 videos run fine on wm player! try downloading the vista or xp codec pack which is available on most torrent sites
I know its old but anyway...I record video w/ my kaiser, bluetooth the video over to my laptop, convert with WM convert, open w/ movie maker, edit then post. Sooooooooo easy and no cables required!
You're all going through waaaay to much by using converters & what not. When recording in mpeg4 format just rename the files to ".3gp" after you transfer them to your computer and they will play regularly through quicktime with sound & everything intact.
download K lite codec pack: http://www.free-codecs.com/download/K_lite_codec_pack.htm
it will allow windows media player to play ANYTHING, throw and file at it and it will play
VLC Works for me
VLC works for me, try it

Use a converter to be able to edit the video in windows movie maker, it takes like 10 seconds to convert a MPEG4 to WMV. (i've got the codec pack but in order to edit the video you need to convert it.)
So when I record videos on my Tilt it records in mp4 format. How can I convert them to something Windows Media Player can play on a pc (or an Xbox 360 can play on the tv)?
In order to play them on my pc I just rename the file from "video.mp4" to "video.3gp". It gives me a warning message that the file may become unstable or might not play, but I have not had a problem yet. Also I use quicktime to play the file on my pc after I have renamed it to 3gp format, WMP still won't play it. Quicktime wouldn't play it in mp4 format, but will if its named 3gp. Be sure to keep a backup of the file in the original mp4 format, just in case, it never hurts to have a copy of the original. If your stuck with just WMP then I am sorry, I have no clue.
Yeah, the Xbox 360 uses WMP, so Quicktime isn't an option for me.
I am trying to stream something from my PC to my Xbox 360 (and displayed on my tv).
I would think that since I am using Microsoft Windows Mobile to record the video that it would be compatible with a Microsoft Xbox 360. But then again, we all know how great the Microsoft MSN service works in Microsoft Outlook, so I guess this isn't surprising.
They really need to get it together at Microsoft. If they could make their left hand work with their right hand they would have a pretty nice body. But as is they don't have a body, they have a bunch of body parts that aren't connected.
It's ridiculous to me that a top of the line PDA phone running a Microsoft OS can record pretty decent quality videos, but can't play them on Microsoft's flagship multi media device- the Xbox 360, and can't even play them on Microsoft's own Windows Media Player.
/rant. Hopefully somoene knows a workaround...
I think if you go to Micro-soft web site , then to down loads, you can get a add-on that will do what you are looking to do
I look around and see if I can find a link for you..
you could do a google search for the MP4 codec that's the codec I use most often on the Microsoft Zune its accually a higher quality of video I think. Also if your using windows vista theres a free codec package out there that has just about every codec you could ever want when I get home i'll post you some links
The reason it wont play on the Xbox 360 is because it uses an audio codec that the Xbox dosent suport according to the software I got it says the audio codec our phones record in is "samr: ARM Narrowband"

for the PC follow F2504x4

he guys,
want to buy this lovely phone .. yeah i know, got some issues, but its new and i think there is a lot of potential ...
but thats off topic
so my question is, can i put my movies and my music into zune to sync with the hd7? oder can i just download movies and music from the zune store ??
I travell a lot with train ( home to work and back ) an i like watching movies, but i´ve got so many movies, i dont want to buy them all again over zune stroe
You can definitely add your own movies and music to a WP7 device using Zune, just point the Zune software to the folder where your files are stored and drag and drop to your device. Be aware some video files will probably be converted by the software and might take some time. But you are not required to buy your multimedia from Zune again before they can be used on your device.
^^ MP4, M4V and WMV videos don't have to convert.
I've had no problems with any movies or television shows that were on my computer already, they dragged and dropped. Took a few minutes per t.v. show. Don't know if it converted them, probably did, but if it did, it did it fast or did it in advance of me dragging and dropping.
Just sync it once via cable, turn on wifi syncing, then drag and drop the night before and in the morning you will be all set.
thx bros
so i think, i will buy it today ..........
general rule is if zune can play the movie the it will be synced to phone or zune. some videos in wmv and h.264 dont need to be converted, but some movies might be converted when the phone starts to sync with the software
I am a movie buff and I like watching them on my phone. I upgraded from a LG Env Touch that I had no problem watching videos. Now that I have a Droid 3 I have not found an app that will let me play my videos. I have install a bunch to find out they will not play my videos in any format. I have tried Mobo player that I was told was the best and that it played most if not all video formats but when I go to click on the folder in which to scan in it shows no videos. If I go to the file folder in apps where the video files would be I click on a video and it ask me what app do I want to play this file and when I select Mobo sometimes it plays but most of the time it won’t. Someone please help with these apps so I can play my movies. I have tried everything I can think of I am a computer person but I think I am doing something wrong. I have tried almost all formats and I have set the conversion program to convert the video to the Droid 3's accepted format and screen res of 980 by 540 and still can't get it to play. What is messed up is that the Motorola app ZumoCast plays all my video off my computer by a 3g connection linked to my computer but I can't find a standalone app that will do this. "Please help me"
I know it's by no means a fancy video player, but I have no issues loading on videos and watching them in QuickPic. I use .wmv shrunk down so the height is 480 and the width whatever keeps the original ratio. I placed them in the external SD card's DCIM folder then added that folder to QuickPic's gallery. I like QP because it allows you to select which folders are in your gallery. Essentially, you could have a folder called "movies" and that would be a sub-folder in your QP gallery.
I use the classic rock player and it plays anything.
So I shot a video (43 min long or so) and now I have no idea how to open it on my computer and edit it. I copied it onto my computer. It is an MPEG4 and says Quicktime & WMP cannot recognize the file. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Try VLC, it will play just about anything.
