Palm and Videos I just synched a MPEG-4 with the Pre, and i get the following error: "there was an error playing the file" Anyone else get this?
Check the following threads about this: http://www.everythingpre.com/forum/palm-pre/watching-videos-18806.html http://www.everythingpre.com/forum/dvd-to-webos/can-pre-play-xvid-18245-3.html Or just go straight to my blog entry about converting files for the Pre: http://dotplaid.wordpress.com/2009/06/06/pre-friendly-video-conversion/
The DOS Screen comes up Plaid, then it goes off right away, probably about 3 seconds worth..Any ideas?
I'll help anyway I can. See this post in another thread and see if if sparks any ideas. The biggest help would be to see the activity log. http://www.everythingpre.com/forum/palm-pre/watching-videos-18806.html#post90226
Yeah, I saw that - first hting it says is its not a DVD file. Also on Vista. My biggest thing is its already a MPEG4 file, but when I put in on the Pre it doesnt work, just the error. Converter doesn't work for me either it seems.
Gonna check out the TUT after my workout and convert Dark Knight from the AVI I used on Touch Pro. -edit: Just checked out the tutorial. No offense but it looks like pretty general information. "Anamorphic:Loose"? Maybe I'm missing something, the version of Handbrake I have has "None" & "Strict" only. I was expecting a more specific tutorial. I'll have to grab a DVD, not a previously converted video, and get it "optimized".
