may be wm editor doesn't support that format.btw which video format r u trying to edit.u can try other video editor.

...hmm, this is a phone-related problem? I believe it is all about codec.

Copy video to PC download Media Info check codec of file . Install codec pack .
Or use search as question has been asked .

Can't drag or copy and paste file..
Now problem solved by video converter software. Video file has to change format. From mp4 to avi or wmp.

[Q] dvd on my vibrant?

can someone tell me how to copy movies onto my phone i love avatar with my a2dp bt headphones but want more movies to watch help someone ?
You need to find a dvd converter that will make it into an mp4 format then connect your phone to your computer and move the file to your phone

Torrent some files and them just drag and drop them to your external sd on your phone

Search for Handbrake. Its free and it will do it just fine.
I play Xvid, Dvix, Mp4, M4v on mine all the time.
Find a dvd copier and rip the disk to you're computer. Then download a free program called format factory (can change the file type and quality very easily) pick a file type and format (.3gp, .mp4, .avi, .flv, .wmv, work on the vibrant)

Download a program on your computer called Vuze. The updated version allows you to convert downloaded movies right into Vibrant compatible format.
rockplayer will play just about any format as well
My 2 cents are on format factory

I tried handbrake it tells me the file is copyrighted cannot copy

I want to say that there is a windows program called "Granny Smiths" that will allow your dvds to be converted by hand brake. I was having the same problem a while back. I was able to use hand brake on my "King of Queens" dvds after using G Smiths. Or... Haven't got to test it yet but you can go to frostwires site and pick up an android app. Got it a couple of days ago for free
Should be able to go to www.cnet/downloads for that first one.

I use the swarm app along with rockplayer app. Swarm is a bit torrent app that works great on vibrant phones.

Hey I use realplayer converter for all my movies. I haven't had any problems using it.
Your Vibrant can play DVD's, just jam a disc into the microUSB port and it should begin playing.

+1 on Handbrake. I used to use it all the time when I had to convert everything to .mp4 for iTunes. On the Vibrant, I use RockPlayer, which plays every video format... basically...
Thread moved to Q&A.
Found it its called dvd fab works awesome 1 touch convert to mp4 or avi try it thanks guys

I use the video converter from freemake.com.... its free and works great!

[Q] Stock internet browser & OEAMTC TV & Language setting (Accuweather)

Hi,
1) I tried to look at the video site from OEAMTC (Austrian Touring Club) - http://tv.oeamtc.at -and the stock browser is not able to playback the videos there.
Actually I tried Doplhin and Opera as well, same issue. WIth Mozilla I could finally playback (very laggy) and download the files. They are .webm videofiles and can playback with ALL video Appy I have on my phone. Stock as well as QicPic and MX Player.
I also could playback the files when using the stock internet browser on my Nexus S, so any idea why the stock browser on SGS2 makes troubles on these videos???
2.) When opening the accuweather from the widged, then going to more / details, it always opens accuweather in english, altough I set my preference on accuweather homepage to german. Is there any setting identifying the browser to prefer german????? Any setting in Accuweather application that brings up the webpage in German? haven't found anything.
Thanks

Can anyone confirm the behavior??
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I found out the following:
.webm files cannot be opened with stock file manager, as they seem not to be known (unknown filetype) altough they are known by Rhytm Software'S Filemanager (and can be opend as Video file) or as they can be associated with Astro File Manager.
Is there any way to tell the Samsuns System that this file is a videofile and should be opend with e.g. MX PLayer? I guess then I can directly stream it from Internet application....
Any ideas?
Can anyone check.. would really like to know if this behaviour is normal...
In the meantime I do not expect that there is a possible fix.

ya there is a way..
go to my files and select any video file..
click on it..
a pop-up should appear asking you which program should be used to play the file..
check the use as default button and then select the mx player..
from now on whenever you play a video.. it will open in mx player unless you open it via gallery
also while streaming online you cant select a particular app through which the browser will play the vid..

Thanks. Actually for general purpose I could link MX Player to the .webm fileformat, and that also works.
For the Samsung Stock file browser as well as internet browser it still and immediately tells: this file type not supported, no program can run it....(and this although on astro file manager its already assigned to MX player.) So not even a chance to assign it by the normal way...

Video app with folder browsing

Hello.
I'm looking for a video application that lets you browse your phone/sdcard like a file manager and click on the video files that you want to play.
I know RockPlayer can do this but I wanted to try something else. Does anyone know an app similar to RockPlayer?
Thanks!
Try Mobo Player

Thanks, but it didn't work as I wanted it to. Basicaly I have a few videos that I do not want to show up in the defualt video app so I have put a ".nomedia" file in the folder where these videos are located.
Mobo player found all of these anyway and saved them for easy access.
RockPlayer is perfect really but I'm just fealing a little paranoid I guess, because it has the "Phone Call" permission. Why would a normal video app want to "read phone state and identity"? I'm not sure how it works.

i tried all kinds of players but keep having this message "Sorry, this video cannot be played."
What format are the files .
And no AVI is not a format .

Use a different video player like MX?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
Yes use MX Player. Ive been using it myself and had no problems with it.
Most films I download are either .AVI or .FLV and plays files just fine.
I've been using Stock Video Player and .AVI works just fine. I wonder why it's not working on your phone
Let me guess you use es file explorer?? If so clear the data of es then try it again and it will work.

I'm not too sure about the format. Even when I converted the.avi file to .mp4 which S3 should be able to play, it still doesn't. Is this due to my CF-Root?

Stupid question maybe, but have you tried many different videos? Because I too have encountered some files I've downloaded that just would not play while others (from the same download) play fine.

yup.. all video files cannot run...
can anyone here help? thank u so much!
Something wrong with your video files is my guess ..If you dont know the format how do you know SGS3 can play this unknown format ??
You can try backing up data and factory resetting .
You could also try formatting the sd card and starting again .
Or you could update your firmware .
Or return to service centre .
