I have posted this in general as I suspect it applies to other phones as well.
My HTC Rose can record videos in wither MP4 or H.263 format and for this, it works.
But when I download these files onto my desktop PC, I am having trouble finding a video player that will play back video AND SOUND.
VLC (which normally supports anything) does not support the samr codec. Windows Media player can't even play Video.
Now to date the only thing I can find that plays these things is Quicktime player from Apple but this is one piece of software I really don't want on my PC so what is everybody else using out there to play the video files they take on their phones?
Thanks
Hy,
do you have testet ffplay or mplayer on your desktop pc?
Greatz

Hi,
I need the codec to view MP4 files generated by my Qtek9090 on my Windows XP laptop.
Strange enough, they work on my regular PC... I don't recall having installed anything on purpose for that.
I have WMP10 on my laptop, Divx 6 codecs.
What do I need and where to get it, to view my small movies?
Thanks,
vma

I'm looking for the CODEC to watch videos created with the Qtek9090 build-in camera on my Windows XP laptop.
Not the other way around!
Thanks anyway.
Cheers,

Try using Quicktime player and exporting to another format. This seems to work fine for me.
Hi there --
I'm trying to help my wife with a really strange Windows Media Player problem.
She has four videos on her phone (T-Mobile MDA). One video is a WMV recorded using the camera, in mp4 format. The other three are MPEGs converted to WMVs using Windows Movie Maker in WinXP.
To a first order, all the videos play fine. However, if she plays the captured video, THEN tries to play one of the converted videos, she will get a blank screen. If you go to the "task manager", and kill WMP, you can play the converted videos again, until the next time you play the captured video.
The symptom is a completely blank screen. Sound plays fine, and the cursor moves across like the video is playing, but no video.
Has anyone else seen this symptom?
Thankx!
imho them wmp is not a really good player
i would try winamp if that also do it
you can narrow it down to
a codec issue
or a video card driver issue
This does sound like a codec issue. Personally I don't recommend using WMP on your phone or on your desktop.
Instead download the free TCPMP. It supports many formats and has a wide verity of options to control playback, performance and memory usage.

codec?
I'm definitely going to have my wife try the other media player, thanks.
A codec may be involved, but there clearly has to be something else at foot: the problem arises across individual playing sessions. All the videos play, if you start from a fresh WMP. The faulty interaction only comes up if you play a video *from the phone* first. Totally weird.
So it sounds like no one else has seen this...
Sorry if this is not strictly on topic, but I am having problems playing video files on my PC which were recorded on my TC. Has the format been changed/tweaked since the Trinity (my last device)? I can't get the files to play using latest versions of WMP, RealPalyer, Quicktime or DivX player (all with -I think- appropriate Codecs; Sherlock utility lists bucket loads of Codecs residing on my PC).
The videos play OK on WMP mobile on the TC and the files were copied direct to the PC using a card reader in order to keep ActiveSync out of the equation.
Thanks
For me, the only way too see videos on my PC is to use Media Player Classic.
I've tried with VLC: video plays but...without sound.

MP4 is now a fairly common video format on the net, and is now becomming a standard format for mobile video recording, takeing over the place of 3gp. If you have troubles whith it, you have several options.
1. You can download the VLC Player, a free, open-source player that plays all videofiles whithout the usage of installed codecs (plays *.flv files as well).
2. If you do some video coding too, then you can install a Codec pack... I recommend K-Lite for that, but ofcourse there are several choices.
3. WMP11 supports it...
All solutions are free... but next time try this:
1. Google
2. In the search field: "How to play MP4 files"

I recomend checking your settings, because VLC works for me. Did you try the latest version? Does this no sound occur whith other file types aswell?
Installed VLC, but like Jules got no sound?
I do however get sound from MP4 files (and other video formats) from sources other than the TC.
So what comes out of the TC does not seem to be normal? (Hence me posting here.... yes I googled (lots) before)
The source of the problem is, that VLC does not recognize the audio stream of the mp4 files created by the TC. The coding of the Audio stream is GSM AMR-NB... so the only option is to get the AMR codec.
The reason VLC plays it for me is because K-Lite is installed (and it contains the audio codec for that).
@gnick666
I use the last Vlc version and KLite Standard version.
And no sound, just with Cruise's MP4. No problem with others MP4.
But Media Player Classic plays these videos with sound.

Klite Mega Codec Pack is the magic solution. Playing TC recorded video fine in WMP11 and BSPlayer Pro
I recorded a vid on my fuze and copied it to my computer. video plays but no audio. I tried it with MPC and VLC, and got a codec error. What do I do?
VLC should work.
try K-Lite Codec Pack Full Pack

Hi,
I have setup the digitel media streaming on a Windows Media Player on Laptop with Windows 7(WMP Network Svc(Windows 7 Media Player Network Sharing Service (wmpnetwk)) to let other devices on the same wireless network to access media streaming. I have installed AnDLNA player on Android mobile to receive the Media Streaming. And also, I installed the latest of MX player since the AnDLNA client player couldn't read the vidoes files which is listed in it.
WMP is working as remote server on which digitel media are saved
AnDLNA is functioning as Client Player which will access the digitel media streaming on Windows Media Player which is functioning as server. When running any video in the AnDLNA client player, then I am prompted as to which player I should use, then I choose 'MX player'.
MX player played all video formats, except 'FLV' video format, although it is the latest version.
.
Although I have read on the top of the forum, this Discuss MX Player, the versatile media player for Android, capable of playing most types of video formats.
However, my problem is that when I have running FLV files, I don't find that MX player recognises them.
I hope that made my thread clear.
Any suggetions would be highly appreicated.
Could anyone please reply to me to finish this pending problem?
a) do these FLV files play properly in MX if you copy them to the device?
b) SW, HW, or HW+ mode?
c) What ROM?

Thank you so much indeed.
Yes, MX player can play the FLV files if they are copied to my device. However, I am accessing file via a WMP Network Svc(Windows 7 Media Player Network Sharing Service (wmpnetwk)) If I want to copy them to my device, then this would need about 80GB of Memory card on my device.
As said before that I am using AnDLNA client to access the video files shared on the Windows Media player on my Laptop. And once the files are listed on the AnDLNA client, then when I cliced on any video files, I was prompted as to which player can play this file, then I chose MX player.
Can I install any Video codecs for supporting FLV video format on MX player on my device. I know there are codecs available but the developer says you shouldn't need a codec unless the player asks for one on startup.
I hope you understand me.
