Video not working 2
« on: August 22, 2007, 04:34:36 AM »
I have a problem, when i installed rockbox, all video, converted with WinAVI MP4 Converter (special for Ipod), stopped working. Instead of playing videos, rockbox trying to open them with music player, i also tryed to use "open with" function, the result was black screen. Please, help to fix that problem.

Also read the MPEgplayer wiki page:

http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/PluginMpegplayer

Instructions and recommended applications to convert videos are listed. There's even a batch file for Windows to help ease the process with VLC.

I had the same problem, you need to convert them to mpeg2 for rockbox to read them as a video, if they are mpg4 rockbox wont read them as a video
P.D.= sorry for the spelling mistakes and the way i write, im not a native english speaker, i hope its understandable
