[solved] ME2 Player dvd conversion

[Martin]

Hi Guys I wonder if anyone can help?

I have bought a ME2 2gb mp3 mp4 player from Hong Kong and would like to put a dvd onto it.
The instructions tell me that the format is avi.
I have tried using the converter that came with the player but this doesn't seem to be working,
I have put some clips onto the player that were on my phone so the player is working is working.
It will also let me put mp3's on as well.
I'm sure it's a file type problem any help would be welcome.

Hi Martin, I have an ME2 player as well. If your DVD files have the AVI extension then you can use MP3 Player Utilities 3.57 or 4.0 and download them from this site. The specs on the player require one of these. Once you have downloaded go into Knowledge Base forum on this site and look for How-to-convert-to-amv-using-the-mp3-player-utilities-368. This should help you convert your AVI files to AMV.

I hope this helped!

HI miffedmom thanks for the reply, the instructions for the player tell me that they need converting to avi files for the player to be able to play them.
I converted part of a dvd to avi from the avex dvd ripper but the player doesn't recognise the file.
What I want to do is convert a film dvd to play on the player.

Hi Martin, I am in the same boat. I want to load some DVD's on my harddrive but they have to be converted to AVI, then converted to AMV to put on players. The files I have downloaded to my player were already AVI that I had previously downloaded from the net.

Hopefully someone can help!!

HI I have converted some files into avi as the instructions on the player suggest but when I try and play them it is giving me a file format error.
I have a converter that will convert to any file but don't know which file to convert to and get the player to play it.
I have put a file on from a u tube download and this is playing so I think that It's a case of knowing what to do because this suggest that the player is working.
MP3's are no problem either.

Hi Martin, the disk that came with my player is useless. I am trying to find a program that will convert DVD to AVI, but so far no luck. Also, none of the AMV converters I have used so far will give me the results I am looking for. I have managed to convert movies that I downloaded from the web if they are under 90 minutes, but nothing over 90 minutes.

Hope someone can help soon!

Hi miffedmom I havn't even managed to download anything and put it on the player.
As I said the instructions say that it needs to be in avi format but when I convert to this the player just comes up with file format problem.
Maybee I'm missing the point!
You 90 mins might be the capacity of the player, my one will take a mini sd card.

I might have thought that someone reading this might be able to point me in the right direction.

:cry:

Hi Martin, I doubt that is the capacity of the player as it is 2 GB.

Have you managed to convert your DVD's to AVI? All of these players require the movies/videos to be converted from AVI to AMV, then they can be placed on player.

Are you using the disk that came with the player to convert your AVI to AMV?

HI miffedmom I tried using the disc that came with the player but this was no good.

I havn't managed to convert dvd's into avi yet.

I don't understand the files yet are you saying that whatever file I have needs to be converted to AVI and then converted to AMV?

[miffedmom]

Hi Martin,

The disc that comes with the players is usually just for converting your AVI files to AMV files.

Yes, any DVD file must be first converted to AVI, then they can be converted to AMV using one of the converters from this site, then they can be downloaded to your player.
