cant play videos
« on: November 21, 2008, 06:31:39 PM »
I have rockbox on my ipod nano and I have a video on it. My computer says that it is a movie clip, which people are saying that it is mpeg. S I tried to get mpegviewer to view it but it didnt work. Any help?

It may not be encoded in a way compatible with Rockbox's mpegplayer plugin. See this wiki page for more details, and links to encoding tools:

You probably didn't resize the video to the correct resolution.
