Hi I just bought a new Moto G,2014. When I put mp4, or avi video files on my sd card I find that most files will not play (some do), I have tried many different players, and the problem still exists. I have even tried a few conversion programs, which I also get mixed results. Any help would be appreciated.
Try MX-Player: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mxtech.videoplayer.ad&hl=de

Plays everything.

anyone know if its possible and if so what program/app i need to watch avi movies that i stored n my sd card? when i had the vouge i used tcmp, a great program that played anything i ran on it.
Is there any programs similar to this?
thank you.
search "avi" on the market. I just did, about 5-8 apps popped about but they're all low rated. You can try to convert the avi movies to another format.
tcmp or dviplayer can be used... a search can help you to find one
Try this out...
I used this software converting a few movies and it worked great. Just download Video Player in the market and it will find the videos on your SD card. It may even play avi, but I just convert everything to H264

So yesterday I was playing around and tried to get some porn clips to play on the phone. I downloaded a video (using a greasemonkey script) and then I transfer the .flv to one of the cards.
It says something like: "filetype not admited" ("tipo de archivo no admitido")
Does it have to do with the flash version? I have stock jf3 root and lagfix app.
Youtube is ok, spankwire or xvideos, are not. You can see it's a REALLY SERIOUS problem
However, sgs media player is supposed to get along with .flv right?
Is there a way for this videos (or others .flv) to play on the phone apart from converting?
i had something similar happen to me
but of course mine was an almost 4GB file with surround sound all channels and HD but it was on 720 mkv, but it gave me the same message
now i loaded another similar mkv file but it was only stereo and that worked fine
seems like the phone can't support HD audio
I see. So it probably has to do with the audio then.
I can resemble this situation
Like all original, un-modded Droid owners, I was looking forward to Froyo and Flash player 10.1. Well, it finally got here. Sites now work, (e.g. Kongregate) and others. Works with Youtube and such. Does not work with .flv files, haven't tried .swf files yet, nothing seems to play from the device, AFAIK.
I would speculate that what we see when things do "play" on the device is the streaming variety of the media.

One of these days I will get around to rooting my Droid and my Eris. Someday....
I have similar problem. I´ve downloaded Megavideo application and when I try to play the video from app with stock player (and I beleived that Galaxy S stock player must handle .flv without problems) so it starts to play, but only with black screen and no sound. In Rockplayer or others it works just fine. Any suggestions how to help it? Thanks a lot
I think the best option is to just use RockPlayer for this.
I've tried using video converters but it's not worth it because audio/video quality can suffer or even get messed up badly. RockPlayer is just more convenient and simple.
I transferred a mov file at first but that would not play so I compressed it to a wmv and it still won't play. I have 2 other wmv files that play just fine. It does not have a thumbnail so I moved the one I had along with the file but still no luck. I have tried saving it to the external sd card and to the android itself. No luck. I know the file is not corrupt because it will play on the computer...even from the phone when connected. Any thoughts?
I am running Cog 5 Beta 2.
You can't compare what will play on a PC running Windows with full codec support to what will play on a phone running a Google OS with limited codec support. Also, there are several different flavors of WMV and not all will play on Android. Your best bet is to convert it to a format that Android likes, like MP4 or just MPG. I have no issues with my videos in this format.
Does anyone have any idea how I can play my videos on the SGS.
They are taken on my camera and have transferred to my internal SD card as MTS files and will not play. Any help appreciated.
I have sorted this now, people are not very helpful on this forum.
You could try Moboplayer? SD card will not support files over 4 gig and neither does allshare. You could also use iMediashare if you want to stream files over 4 gig. You only other option would be to convert the files to a format supported by the phone.
Yes I converted them to mp4 and that worked but Dice player will play them I have now discovered so next time I will use that, thanks.
[Q] Captivate, cannot play any type of video or music files, "file not supported"
I was unsure if I should post this in the Doc's Master's ICS thread or here as a general Q and A but I do not see this type of problem with anyone else?
I have a 32G Kingston external SD card installed and I have several MP4, M4V video files as a crapload of MP3's. I tried installing several different players from the market such as mplayer and mx player and all of them say they cannot play the files (file not supported by player). I really hope I do not have to convert them. Why won't my captivate play these files?
I tried to edit folder permissions, I see that "owner" has read/write/execute unchecked. Not sure if this has anything to do with it. Any help would be appreciated. I even moved a couple files to my internal SD to test with the same results.
