i have tried changing the file extension but does not seem to work
I really want to add songs to my phone without having to spend anymoney
anyone got any info?
Thank You.

Yep. I don't know what program you use to take the music from Youtube. I use Free Youtube to MP3 Converter 3.1.1.1. by DVDVideoSoft.com( think I got it from CNet). Anyway, you save or tranfer the file into one that is monitored by Media Player. Open Media Player, if it isn't there try updating the library. After that hook up your phone and Sync it. Done deal! PS- You have to have the file you get from Youtube in a format Media Player can play(mp3,wav,wma,etc.)
thanks man...got the files on my phone...only problem is they dont go to the windows media library..i put them on my storage card, and have to listen to each one individually to my phones windows media player

I have a problem putting movies on my diamond. I use activeSync, try to put movie on it but it says "convereting (none)".
Whats the problem? I have Combined community codec pack on my computer.
Thanks in advance

Are you saying you are trying to get ActiveSync to convert your movies to a playable format?
EDIT: Yeah what rumple said- just drag and drop them to your internal storage.. Little confused by your original post.
Movies are in *.avi format. Last time I did it, I dragged and dropped them on my internal storage and the active sync program from windows XP converted it by itself, now it doesnt want to.
edit: I did that yes, but its not being converted anymore. Now it looks like: the copying line goes to 30% and then get back to 0% again and it repeats all the time.

When you rip the movies from DVD you should make the AVI with optimum settings for your diamond. This way you will not need any conversion again when copying files over and have the best quality and appropriate size for your device.
as for why your file transfer keeps going back to 0% i dont know, but you could use a file explorer on your phone to see if the file size of the movie you copy is increasing (because the file is still copying) then you could tell if the percent reading is a bug or if it is true, because maybe your file is still copying OK.
File is still copying good when I use file transfer.
And I put not movie from dvd, just some other downloaded movies.
But still, I shouldn't require to convert it by myself. ActiveSync should do it by itself.
can anyone help me?
i have never had anything actually convert when using Activesync to copy files over...
copied a 702mb .avi to it yesterday (using activesync), then copied back off (using Diamond as a USB stick) and it hadnt changed at all!
it says "converting and copying" but i have never had and files (pictures, videos, Word Documents etc) change...
I'm using TLR 3 rom, maybe thats a problem?
I'm still lost as to what conversion you think is taking place with ActiveSync.
Download, create, or edit the video on your computer. Hook up your diamond, and copy the file over to the internal storage in the phone.
Disconnect the phone, bring up media player and watch the video.
Unless I'm misunderstanding you somewhere it should be as simple as that.
You said you have community codec installed on your PC, but that has nothing to do with ActiveSync.
Unless ActiveSync has some secret video conversion talents I am unaware of, it is simply just going to let you transfer the ready to play file to the memory on the phone.
Well. You put the file on your phone while being ActiveSync'ed and there pops up a window where it shows converting and copying loading bars. The whole conversation takes place in windows media player becouse ActiveSync uses it for converting. But even in windows media player the file doesn't want to be converted.

And I belive your codecs affect converting, becouse without good ones - conversation won't be possible.

Do yourself a favor and download Super C http://www.erightsoft.com/SUPER.html
Use it for your conversions then just copy your movies to the Diamond and be done with it.......

Bump..! Anyone ?
In my opinion, the best way to access files of your PC is to share your folders on the PC and mount them on your phone through CIFS. This is the most natural way, just like you'd do it between PCs.
CifsManager makes this pretty easy. You just need to enter the path to your PC share, user name and password, and where you what the share to be mounted on your phone's file system. Then you can mount and unmount the share with a singe click, and access all the files from the PC just if they were local files.
Note: The phone needs to be rooted though. And there is a bug in android kernel 3.4.0, which makes it hard to get CIFS working. ("Invalid argument" error, even if you enter everything correctly). Let us know if you run into that problem.
