Video playback on the desktop


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

When I shoot a piece of footage on my E200 and transfer it to my desktop, I can't seem to play it back. Is it some kind of proprietary format that will only play on Windows Mobile?

It's always worked fine on my PC running Win XP Pro. It just opens in Windows Media Player...

You will need to download some codecs, but i'm not sure which ones :D

You need a MJPEG codec. I use Morgan's - but its not freeware.

Yeah, I thought it would too. It starts playing for about 2 seconds and then stops. I don't think it is a codec issue because WMP9 usually says it is requesting a codec if it doesn't have it already.

What is the limit for attachments on Modaco? I'll attach a file on here and if somebody could try playing it back on their computer I would be grateful. It's probably just my PC but if somebody could verify it then I can start trying to sort that out :D

If the file is too large, please remove it mods 8)

*edit* won't let me post the avi file ;)

Aha! Good idea that man!

If somebody could try playing it back for me that would be great ;)

Although I haven't looked at it personally, I'd recommend you try installing Windows Media Player 9 (Windows XP only came with 8 ). It could be that your old codec thinks it can decode the stream buut then gets confused and gives up.

Either way, I'll have a look tonight and see if I can work out what it is.

XP and Windows Media Player 9 - your video plays without problems on my system.

In the past i've found i've not been able to play mpeg's without Quicktime...(may just be coincidence though).

I'm also running WMP 9 and Windows XP Pro but still can not get the video from the e200 working??? Really odd. Any Ideas? :shock:
