hi guys,

IM not much of a tech person. But i would still like to have my mio running.

1. I really want it to play video, i heard beta player's good so i have it now.
WHAT FORMAT DOES IT PLAY? it doesn't play anything on mine (avi is the only format i didnt try)

2. I also tried pocket tv, but its not smooth at all.

3. IF and if i get it going, will it be slow if I play video on a 1g SD card? or the speed of the card is important?

thanks million

1) Plays avi's only
2) Betaplayer IMHO is smoother
3) Size of SD card shouldn't matter, i dont think speed will make much difference either.

You can use pocket movies i think but you may need the GAPI fix for it to work, do a search for it in this section of the forum.

A alternative is to use virtual dub (which is free, google it) to make the file avi which you can then play with BetaPlayer and the file will be smaller.
