8 gig nano look a like not playing any amv files. help pleas
 

i have a 8 gig ipod nano look a like, its a s1 mp3 player, wilson co. ltd version 3.5.37. i have the 4.0.0 converter tool for the movies and i cant get it to play anything, yesterday it was playing them then it got screwed up some how, when i would hook it up to my computer and go to put anything on it as soon as i would open up the drive it would be filled with all the wierd folders and files and it wouldnt let me put anything on it or delete anything on it, so i formated it, and that worked for the most part. but know i cant play any movies i can load songs on it but every movie i load on it says format error. please help

hellbound, You have a hacked player. This means it has a memory chip that has been programmed top read larger than it's true size. Your 8GB player could have a memory chip as small as 128MB.
You need to remove the hack to fix the problem.

i've had over 3 gigs of music on it, i dont think thats the problem, i just cant get it to play any movies, i've formated it 2 times and it always says 8 gig, so i beleave its 8 gigs. i just want it to play movies again

hellbound, Suit yourself but these players only support a maximum 2GB Nand Flash Memory. The reason you AMV files are not playing is because they are being written to memory that does not really exist.

my god this sux, first off your 100% correct :oops: i have had this for only about a week i bought it off of a cite called craigslist. when i got it i loaded about 3 gigs of music on it and i noticed every time i would go past song 88 it would shut off, so i went through deleteing songs cus i thought it was a messed up song not formated correctly or somthing like that. then i just formated it because of the problem in my first post, and it always said 8 gig, now i just clicked on that stuff you put in your post to me and it turns out i paid 120$ for a 512 meg shitty mp3 player that still wont play any videos and now all the stuff on it is in japanese. i guess i would like to say thanks for pointing this out to me, and now how do i get it to play movies and back to english :( :oops:

Hellbound, if I was you, I would go back where you got if from, and DEMAND a full refund.

Is "Craigslist" an eBay user or a Website?

$120 for 512MB is way out of fairness, 512MB in England costs about £19.99 (Mid Range Price) thats about $25 - $35.

i pretty much get bent over on this one, craigslist is a local ebay type for people who dont have credit cards and love getting ripped off. its just like ebay but you deal with people in your area. and i bought it off of some guy . so i cant take it back and i cant sell it for any thing close to what i paid. so i just have to be carefull going about stuff like this, i've used craigslist a lot and for a long time and this is the first time i've been ripped off. i guess when you buy from cites like this that only deal with local people your bound to get burnt eventually. none the less i would at the very least like it to work, and get it back to english. so if some one could tell me how to get it to play videos and how to get it back to english i would very much apperciate it. thanks

hellbound, Once you remove the hack and return your player to it's true memory size you should not have any problems.
"lattesurfs" guide is the best way to do this.

hellbound, its true that hacked player shows a lot of problems. But if you are careful, and prepared to get annoyed you can use the full HACKED 8GB.
I have a hacked 2GB player with 512MB flash memory. Its hell a lot annoying to keep 2GB songs on this player and make all of them play as most of the time player would restart.
Even when you will copy back files from player to hard drive, they wont work, so not a good pen drive too.
In order to get the best out of your 8GB you need to keep a check on what data you are pushing on your player, and is it getting copied properly.
For playing videos, check on with MP3 Player Utilities 3.68, with small screen size, (128x96). I hope then you must be able to play AVM files.
And yeah, don't get ripped off... Think before you buy.

The GOOD THING about getting ripped off from a scammer selling hacked players is (for most people we hope....) that it only happens ONCE. Now, do yourself a favor, listen to good advice here, go into the Hacked Player thread and do a DOUBLE LOW LEVEL FORMAT using the encrypt / decrypt method in MP3 utilities. Do this right and you will return the player to its true size. (presumably 512mb). Now you can put stuff on it without it rebooting and shit. Next, go into the SETUP menu, and change the language back to English. Now you can play AMV's and whatever.

Next time, check the guides on eBay before you buy! Had you read my guide, you'd have seen I mention that you can get ripped off buying Nano clones on Craigslist, or even supposedly genuine iPod Nano's. Getting an 8GB Nano clone is like being ripped off twice!
