Hello you all,;
Some of the note-worthy video players also have some codec. If you notice in google store they are listed below them.
The question I have how I should I know what codec is for my device?
For example what codec is for A13allwinner cpuz?
Ps: also if one forget to install the codecs. It means that he or she can't play certain types of viedo?
Thank you very much

i have searched the forums and i cant really figure this one out. Basically the media player of my imate refuses to play .mpg or .avi. When i click on the video file it tells me to open the program associated with this file first, when i use windows media player and update the library it fails to locate the file. I have tried playing files from both the storage card and the internal memory but have had no success. Im using the default windows media player in a CID locked g4.
If i am missing something completely obvious or i havent given enough info then i apologise in advance for my ignorance but i hope someone can assist me with my problem.
thanks
This should be a codec problem.
Media player isn't shipped with the necessary codec to handle MPEG (I may be wrong...) and what codec is your avi encoded with.
You'd better try with another player like TCPMP for example as it supports many formats.
Also, Windows Media Player is able to trancode audio and video so it suits your device.
BTW, this isn't a G4 specific issue.
Next time, ask your question in this thread : you will get more feedback.
ok thankyou for highlighting my faults, and thankyou for your prompt response i will try your advice. Hopefully this will solve my problem. Next time i will post in the appropriate forum.
Missing Codecs
Hi bwesty,
I had the same issue with my I mate K-JAM not playing AVI's, download TCMP & AAC audio codec (search this forum) will fix your problem, unfortunately I haven't tried MPG's yet....
All the best

why is it that some media player apps play WMA files fine, while others state that "no codec found"?. Obviously a codec is installed or the other players couldn't play. Seems like players should share the same codec libraries like Win OS
I apologize beforehand if my questions could've been posted on some of the other video threads.
I was wondering how well the NT plays divx/xvid and mkv files. From what I understand certain people have had issues with these files. Can someone please elaborate? No subtitle or multiple audio support on the stock player I'm assuming...
Also can it play both normal profile and high profile h.264 videos?
Also can you stream locally shared video files without using a sideloaded app?
So just curious what is the best way to convert say a normal movie or TV show to a format that Fascinate will recognize in Moboplayer?
Any recommendations on what format I should convert it to?
Also what software should I use? Preferably free but I know that not always possible
Lots of variables here, so you may need to try a couple and see what formats you can play, and which codec you need to use for encoding. I have the best luck with MP4, since those always play in the stock video player without issue, I've just stuck with them.
I always use Avidemux, and VLC which are both free and cross platform. VLC alone will convert most file types.
What about mx video player?
Thanks for suggestions I am going to check them out.
what resolution should I make it? Isn't there an ideal one for our phone?
So there are a few mentions of Google play music changing from mp3 to AAC. Not as many as I would expect given that this is a big deal imo.
I tested today using the web player on my mac and it was indeed AAC but I have no way of verifying if this also the case on mobile devices too. On android the files are hidden away and cannot be viewed without root. I can see no reason why they would vary it by device but you never know
Anybody have any idea how to verify on an android device?
Would be great if someone could throw light on this. Really want to know whether GPM is playing AAC on Android like their web player. If that's the case, it's indeed a big deal.
