MP4 [avi videos 320*240]- freezes and then no response :'(

[dadou23]

hello everybody !! it's David from spain... :lol:

I recently buy a MP4 player from china. The provided converter was not working on MY pc but working well on my sister's pc. SO I put videos inside. THe problem is that the video starts and

- SOMETIMES (most of time) video and sound stops and freezes. I have to turn off my mp4 player because of no response.

- Sometimes the sound continues but the image freezes and I have to turn off my mp4 player because of no response.

Videos are 320*240 on a 2.4" screen.

I've uploaded a video of my problem here:

and an image with the firmware version here:

:arrow: Everything else from player (radio, music, etc..is working great but not the videos ....

I HOPE you can help me (p-s i've tried the xilisoft solution and same problem, I've read a lot of posts, the tutorials from your forum without finding any solution) :roll:

a big thanks from SPAIN :wink:

Does one of the original sample videos still work? If so upload it here

www.uploaded.to

Then upload a video that does not work and lets see if there is any difference between the two.

Also try downloading this video and see if it works for you

the video of what I mean..
even with YOUR avi file :cry:

I tried putting default settings etc...
but nothing has changed...
video converted with aviconverter, gulkmencoder, or xilisoft are making same problem... even the sample videos are making this...

:cry:

What can I do? yesterday I was able to read 20minutes of "LOST tv show" :wink: and then It blocked at the middle...sometimes it blocks after 5 seconds...and sometimes the player shutdowns while playing...

help!

I receive that email from a seller of my mp4 (not mine because they are in hollydays for new chinese year)

Thanks for your mail.

Please try to format the player first. We will help you to solve your problem. In video, you need to convert the AVI format first.


I heard that format the player will erase the program files and make it like a simple USB storage key???

well still needing your help!

Thanks! :wink:

Reformatting the player will not do any harm. I reformatted mine in fat32 mode when I first recieved it. Just be sure to copy any files you want to keep first otherwise they will be lost. Then reload them onto the player and see if that helped. I do know that some amv type players play with less "format errors" when they are reformatted or have a defrag performed due the the drive becoming fragmented.

hello dave and thakns for your reply...

ok i'm going to save all my files and then format it .. I mean...i'll format the player like I format a floppy disk for example?

I hope i'll not loose the firmware doing this...

Do you have seen my video on google video? :wink:

THanks a lot,
David

[dadou23]

I formatted my player but nothing has changed...
When I put videos problem is the same....
everything else is working well...

Is there anything that I forgot to try?
Do I have to put files in a special folder? I don't know...

Well i'm getting sad :cry: thanks all for you help!

Sounds like its time to update the firmware. My player supplied me with the firmware tool but I have no firmware. Did your disk come with a copy of your firmware?

[dadou23]

I just have a upload toll for firmwares but no firmware..
do you think that firmware change can fix my problem???

:wink:

don't know where to find a new firmware?
