Thank you for trying to help. I used all the different versions of Quicktime I could find. I also tried other movie players (WMP etc.) I tried many different things and the end result is that the movie plays on the phone (Windows Media Player) but I can't find a way to play it on my computer.
Sincerely, Geir
try vlc media player

well I found a workaround yesterday which is too long for me to be doing constantly but I uploaded the video to youtube and then used one of those youtube online converters to turn the movie in to a regular mp4 (the mp4 that gets made by the phone is strange and won't play)
All you have to do to play the video with QuickTime is to rename the file, replacing the .mp4 suffix with .3gp.

Glad to help. I just Googled for the message QT gives on the .mp4 file, and I found an Apple forum somewhere that discussed the problem and gave the solution.

do you know where i can get it from?
one tip...
you can use google to find something...
http://betaplayer.corecodec.org/
or.... you can try converting your .avi files (and other video format) to .wmv files using the windows xp movie maker. then just transfer the converted file to your xda2 and u should have no problem playing it.
hope this helps!
thank you all for responding.
The BetaPlayer suggestion was best.
Now I have found a encoder and also a very good player to both convert my movies and also view them on the XDA II.
Pocket DivX Encoder & Betaplayer did the trick.
Thank you very much.
This rocks! Thanks Guys!
In under 10 minutes, ive encoded the latest episode of Battlestar Galactica and Im now sitting here at my desk watching it on my MDA3.
You da men!
hey guys, i have some full family guy episodes (~200 mbs) that i wanna put on my dash. when i sync them through windows media player on my desktop, it converts them to .wmv to make them about ~25 mbs. however, now i cant play them on my tcpmp player. when i try to open it gives me 2 error messages:
Player: Audio codec (windows media audio) not supported by player
Player: video codec (windows media video 9) not supported by player.
any help would be helpful... and yes i did go to file associations and make sure that .wmv is checked off, thanks

core player now plays wmv thanks to you.
whereever you have installed your core player just put the files below into and heypresto your up and running - saving lots of time batch converting etc..
Remember you may not see the files in the device window as they are hidden files... if you want to see them I am sure you know what to do...

Try this: copy the music video to windows/rings. The music video must be associated with wmp (wav) before it will work.

I found this on coolsmartphone if its any help. Video Ringtone Maker for Windows Mobile released http://www.coolsmartphone.com/news2062.html
edit: i did just read somewhere that it only supports windows smartphones, and the topic is about a year old, but its worth a look.
I think someone told me of one that you have to pay for a few weeks ago, but wondering if there is some free apps now. For the pc there is a bunch like VLC, Gom and KM player that play every video format. It would be nice to be able to take advantage of the hdmi output.

I didn't see it on the vlc website. Do you know where to find it? I did a search, but nothing came up. It did mention the ability to play files from your computer remotely, but that is streaming so it wouldn't be HD or great quality I imagine.

Same... there was one talked about for WM also, but never seen. Please share.
VLC hasn't been ported for Android yet.
That said, the guys that are releasing a PSX emulator and working on an Android N64 emulator, are supposedly going to working on porting VLC in their spare time. http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/playstation-emulator-coming-to-android-courtesy-of-yongzh-and-z/

I just installed yxplayer and it won't play a 1.4gb mkv file well at all. It is just a picture every few screens. Maybe the phone can't handle the file size, but my friend has an mkv player he got from china and it is bad a$$. It plays all file types and has mini hdmi out and I doubt it has a processor and ram as much as the evo. It's been out a lil while I'm sure. It has it's own screen but will output to an hd tv and looks just like you were playing a blue ray.
Probably thats the case... my mkvs were 640x480 anime shows. Havent tried anything hi-def...
On a side note, yxplayer is available as a trial only (2 min play time limit, tho some vids played for more and some reqlly did cut off after 2min), and if you wanna buy/pirate it - you won't be able to. The app for some dumb reason uses phone's imei for registration, which is gsm-only =O

Ok, so I'll wait for vlc, or another player to come out. Although I really won't need to play many movies on my phone. I will use my laptop if anything.
Dont forget about CorePlayer... they're working on a version for android as well. CorePlayer for winmo played mkv and nearly everything else I threw at it (performance on the other hand was a totally different subject, lol)
Any idea of a release date for Coreplayer? I've been converting my files for the longest time now but sometimes I don't get a chance to in the case of downloading a football match.
Its been in development for year(s) now, waiting for better NDK on android... Froyo seems to be exactly what they were missing so we should be seeing the app in few months, i hope...
I have a couple of seasons of a cartoon in mp4 format on my Galaxy Tab 2 and having never had a problem with MX before, now some of these files skip erratically and the audio and visuals are jumbled up in several episodes.
I assumed this was an issue with the file, but they play perfectly well on my PC through VLC.
Have updated to latest version through Google Play but still doing it.
Other files are fine, including .avi and another mp4.
Thoughts?
Rgds
P.S
Im a bit of a luddite tbh so please use small words and not too many of them in the hope i understand what to do.

It may related to video resolution. Galaxy Tab 2 is not so fast device to run high resolution video.
What is the video resolution of your mp4 files?

Long press any video file
Select properties
Here you can see some basic info about video file.
Just check resolution for the files which doesn't have problem & the one which has problems.
Provide us with the media info of the video causing problems, as it will help us diagnose the issue. You can extract the media info using a PC app such as MediaInfo.
