Hi Guys, I'd appreciate some help.
Have a K810i which is supposed to play mp4 but mine doesn't.
If I select the file in the Video folder the icon is a musical note and the sound will play but no picture.
If I select the Video Player from the Entertainment folder it doesn't list any videos and says currently unavailable if I press play.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Jerry |

Make sure you encoded the video in mpeg4. Xvid and h264 is different and may not play on all phones. |

i think it's something to do with the phone's processor where it need time to read/process "large file" before it can be played or sometimes it can't even read. try a smaller video file using the same encoding and if it can be played then the processor is at fault....i think your phone is fine

Thanks Mallaccra, you're spot-on.
Any idea what the file size limit might be? |
