mpeg problem

Ghost Toast:
Hi All,

So I had a mpeg video file ready on my mp3 player, I opened it with the mpeg player, I selected start from beginning, and then there was a blank screen, I had to reset the player in order to get it turned off.  Can someone please explain to me what I did wrong?  My video file is 43MB.

Any help is appreciated.

SupEvery1 ;)

P.S.  I had to convert the file first.  Sorry if I posted this in the wrong place.

AlexP:
How did you convert the file, what format is it, what size is it, what bitrate is it, what MP3 player....

Details!

Ghost Toast:
As I said, the video file is 43MB.  I have a Sansa e270, and I used the Prism Video Converter to convert it from VOB format to MPEG.

AlexP:
By size I meant dimensions - these need to match your player.

What bitrate is it?

What version of MPEG?  Rockbox plays only 1 and 2, not 4 for example.

We need the details about the video to be able to help.

Ghost Toast:
Okay, it was MPEG2, and it turns out the problem was it wasn't the right screen size.  I converted it again and told it to shrink it to 176x220 and it worked properly.  I think this topic is over.

Anyway, thanks for the help ;)

EDIT:  I got them to work but the screen size is small and it's at the bottom of the screen.
Do you know the problem?
