No video playback on PC.. - HTC Incredible S

Hey I just bought this phone, when I try to see a video on my pc it just shows black screen but the audio plays, it shows fine on the phone.. try playing with media player, what could be the problem?

........... Help? please..

What format is the video file? You probably need to install the right codec so that your PC can play it. Try using VLC player. If that doesn't work I would recommend installing the K-lite codec pack.

Standard or full version should be fine.

i do have the k-lite codec pack, the video actually plays with sound but the screen is black..

OK, so we can rule that one out. Did you try VLC, and what format is the file?

Sorry for the late replay, no I didn't tried VLC but I never had problem playing any type of video file..
The format is .3gp.

Playing Kaiser Videos on a PC

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

same here, except WMP plays the audio and video fine for me, but then when i try and exit it crashes 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.

Diamond video

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.

Hello everybody ! In first sorry for my english i'm french

Maybe its just a bad video file, try a different divx file and see if mx can play it and use software decoding not hardware.
i'm sorry my problem is not what i can't divx only, today i see what every media i put in the phone with cable using mass storage option, don't working. every files are corrupted but when i transfer everything by using a card reader, it's ok. i don't why and i don't know what i'll doing for resolve this problem
I have 2 players for playback namely Mobo and Rockplayer. They can handle videos like MKV and DivX. Maybe the video you are trying to play is encoded differenly or 1080P (other formats) which regular players can't handle.
And try "Soft Decoding" if Rockplayer does not work
try mobo player...
Try MX Video Player. Has specific codec for Tegra 2. If it doesn't work, try Soul Video, another good option.
If your device has GB rom, try diceplayer trial version.

[Q] Movie playback stuttering

Hi I've just got the z1 after years of HTC, love the phone but when I try to watch a TV show or movie it stutters all the way through, like frame rate is very low, this happens on the Sony movie player and mx player, all files are avi.
Is there any settings I can use to sort this out?

Ok give me a feedback if that works with VLC :good:
Vlc seems to work fine, tried it for about 20 minutes and no visible stutters.
Thanks for your advice
