OPPO V3H portable media player

Hello
Bought an Oppo V3H 'MP4' player in Beijing recently. Good screen - preloaded video files look great. Excellent sound quality.
I can drag music files into this device via Windows Media Player but I cannot get video files to play.
The preloaded movies are filename.avi but ordinary .avi files don't work. In fact - when I load them they don't even show up on the player's menu.
Of course - the instructions and Oppo website are entirely in Chinese.
Can anybody help?
All advice gratefully received.

Looks really nice, on those chinese websites that show it. Can't make anything out of it but "xvid 320×240". So you must convert your avi's to this resolution. Did you get a cd with it, if so it probably has a conversion program on it. I use PocketDivxEncoder, for my pda that has the same resolution.
What about a review? I would buy one if I knew how to get it from Beijing!

mikemcdowall,

You will need specific transcoding/converting software which will convert it to the .avi file that your playre can play. It won't play DivX and Xvid movies by default, it needs to be converted.

I know I have an .avi player, but none of the DivX or Xvid movies I have play on it. I have to use the included converting software which will convert it to an .avi file that my player recognises.

Try searching our [Downloads] area for a "PMP Transcoding Tool" and see if that helps.
