Cannot Add MP4 Video File!!! HELP!!!

I have got the 80GB IPod and have added a few videos, each MP4 files about 164MB in size. However, when i tried to add a MP4 video file that is 216MB it does not upload into my library? It is definately the correct file type and I have about 73GB left in memory so what could the problem be?

They are not formatted correctly.
Just because a file is mp4 does not guarantee it is
playable by the iPod.
Correct file formatting :
Video formats supported: H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps,
640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per sec., Low-Complexity
version of the H.264 Baseline Profile with AAC-LC
audio up to 160 Kbps, 48 kHz, stereo audio in .m4v,
.mp4, and .mov file formats; H.264 video, up to 768
Kbps, 320 by 240 pixels, 30 frames per sec., Baseline
Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC audio up to 160
Kbps, 48 kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov
file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by
480 pixels, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with
AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48 kHz, stereo audio in
.m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
PS. Hard drive space is not referred to as memory-it
is storage space. You have 73 GB of storage space
left, not memory.
It IS formatted correctly, it has all the attributes mentioned in the video file format supported by IPod mentioned above and the file is identical (apart from it is 216MB opposed to 164MB) to the other video files already stored on my IPod.
Thank you for the wise up on the IPod 'lingo'though!
So any other ideas?

I cannot copy mp4 video files to my iPod video

I am having a problem with my 6-month old (6 months since I bought it) iPod Video. Before, I was using iTunes 6.0.0.18 (earlier relase of iTunes), which was installed from the CD included in my iPod. I didn't have a problem except that that version of iTunes does not have video conversion functionality to formats that iPod supports (to .m4v format) so I decided to upgrade to the latest version of iTunes (v6.0.5.20) to achieve this. When I upgraded, it created a new problem - for some reason that I don't know, I can no longer drag .mp4 files to my iPod. Everytime I drag a .mp4 video to my iPod, I'm getting an error message - "Some songs in the iTunes music library, including the song "xxxx", were not copied to iPod "xxxx" because they cannot be played on this iPod.". Can you help with that? Thanks

That error is saying that the format can not be read on your iPod.I get this message when adding my video's to iTunes. So you need to convert them here are converters

Using Lightroom 5.2 cannot upload mp4 video files to Flickr.

When i used the older Lightroom 3 I was able to upload video files (.mov) to Flickr. Now, with LR5.2 Flickr shows those files as grayed out .mp4 files and do not upload.
Same camera, Canon 7D, so what's happening? Is the problem at Flickr's end? I don't think so.

Satellite L850-b409 - Cannot listen to mp4 video files

I have proplem in listing to audio in mp4 video files
I used all video player - media player - klite all player no one can play audio in mp4 vedio file
please help
My laptop is Toshiba Satellite L850-b409
part no: pskg8v
I have windows 8 64 bit
please
heelllllllllllllllllpppppppppppppppp

Possibly you dont have installed audio codec which would support the mp4 file format.
Youve got two options:
1) You would convert the mp4 files in other format like mp3
2) You would install an audio codec supporting the mp4.
By the way: the *VLC player* is a freeware player which supports the mp4.
So you should try this player too.

Mp4 video files in SWFs- How to embed?

The Flash Player 9.0.115 and up can play mp4 files, but getting them in the swf to begin with is not easy!
Below are three different methods I've tried, and the results.
• Instance A: I place an FLVPlayback Component on the stage, but it is not possible to set the source video if it is .m4v, .mp4, or .f4v, or flv.
• Instance B: If I encode a video file as an f4v, I can use actionscript 3 to set the source to an F4V encoded file, but only IF I change the file extension to .flv . If I keep it as f4v. The video won't play.
vidplayer.source = mymp4Movie.flv;
vidplayer.play();
• Instance C: Streaming works. All you have to do is add an mp4: prefix to the file, or in some cases, remove the file extension altogether.

If it helps to understand, here's the project— A SWF/projector is playing mp4 video files from local media- a DVD.
This is a tough nut. Thanks to anyone who can shed any light on this.

Can't add some video files

I can't import or add a video file. The file is MP4. When I try to add to library, iTunes doesn't do anything. What should I do to have that video be in my library.

Do you have the "show only the synched items" box checked? It's on the summary page when you have Apple TV selected under devices in iTunes. I had this problem and it took me a while to see it...now if my Apple TV would just stay connected to iTunes......or if someone could help me downgrade to 2.0 I'd be golden.

ITunes 11 deletes newly added m4v and mp4 video files!

I'm really loathing the new iTunes for a number of reasons.. but this one really takes the cake!
When I try to add an M4V or MP4 video file, iTunes deletes the file and does not add it to the library!
I never had any issues with 10.7.. and seeing as there is no way of reverting back that I can find.. any help in how to solve this... or is this one of those wonder new "feature's" I now have to contend with?
Thanks

Are you frustrated that whether you drag and drop your video files to iTunes 11, or add video files from “Add files to Libray” or “Add folder to Libray”, nothing is imported even though the files are in iTunes 11 supported MP4, MOV or M4V video format.
If iTunes 11 won’t import MP4, MOV or M4V, first make sure your install QuickTime Player. Even though you hire VLC or Perian or any other media player to take care of your video playback instead of QuickTime, you still need to install QuickTime in order to add video to iTunes 11 for transfer to iPad, iPod, iPhone or Apple TV.
f you install QuickTime player but still can’t add MP4, MOV, M4V to iTunes 11, there is no other solution but to convert MP4, MOV, M4V to iTunes 11 supported video MP4.
Visit the Step-by-Step Guide on how to successfully import all kinds of MP4, MOV, M4V to iTunes 11
The guide also applies to import AVI, WMV, MKV, etc to iTunes 11.

How can i get an MP4 video file to work in iMovie 08'?

I'm currently editing a wedding video i recorded on my Sony DV camcorder in iMovie 08' and want to splice a MP4 video file (from a mobile phone- make unknown) of the married couple on their first dance into the footage but can't
How do i go about acheiving this?

Autoplay is not universally supported by all devices. Many smatphone data plans can't handle the burden of preloaded and auto playing media. There's nothing you can do to change this b/c mobile devices simply ignore the parameter.   All that said, why are you still using player plugins? You don't need them with HTML5 video.
Copy & paste this code into a new, blank document. Change video files to your own.

Since updating my iTunes I no longer have any controls. iTune covers the entire desktop and I cannot add from my files. Can anyone please advise me.

Since updating my iTunes I no longer have any controls. iTune covers the entire desktop and I cannot add from my files. Prior to updating I had a perfectly good iTunes which would allow me to stories for including on a iPod.
Can anyone please advise me.

From my post on what seems like the same issue (found here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/21087892#21087892)
Take the following steps:
1) while connected to wifi, toggle off then back on the Show All Music and iTunes Match options shown in my original post. Important: I did this step before, but wasn't connected to wifi, and my music disappeared. Subsequently, I connected to wifi and turned off and then back on those options and everything came back though it was grayed out and my only option was to download music.
2) To get streaming over cellular back, go into Settings>General>Cellular and scroll down to the "Use Cellular Data for:" options and make sure the iTunes option is set to 'On'
The above steps will bring back the streaming capability which seemed to go away when you update to 6.1. It didn't ACTUALLY go away, but something about the update toggled off the iTunes option in step 2 above.
I did a final test by turning off wifi, opening Music app and selecting a song. It played successfully without downloading! Crossing my fingers, but I think I'm good to go!
Hope this helps!

Hi jeeby,
Have you tried reinserting and removing the memory card? You can also see this link: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsphone/develop to know more about the supported video formats.
You can also try to convert it to another supported format using a converter software then check if it will work.

What HTML code do I need to get Adobe Flash to play an embedded MP4 video file (8 MB)?

What HTML code do I need to get Adobe Flash to play an embedded MP4 video file (8 MB)?

Here are a couple of ways, one using the Netstream class and the other using the FLVPlayback component.
For the NetStream approach, the following in the timeline code will play/loop the intended mp4 file...
     var video:Video;
     var connect_nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
     connect_nc.connect(null);
     var stream_ns:NetStream = new NetStream(connect_nc);
     stream_ns.client = this;
     function netStatusHandler(p_evt:NetStatusEvent):void {
         if (p_evt.info.code == "NetStream.Play.Stop") {
             stream_ns.seek(0); // to loop the video
     stream_ns.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, netStatusHandler);
     video = new Video();
     addChild(video);
     video.attachNetStream(stream_ns);
     stream_ns.play("path_to/your.mp4");
For the FLVPlayback component, add it to the stage, give it an instance name ("fp" used below), assign your mp4 file ("path_to/your.mp4") as the source property in the Properties panel, and select the option to autoplay as well. Place the following code in the timeline...
     fp.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, playAgain);
     function playAgain(evt:Event):void {
         fp.play();
To put the Flash swf file in an html page, in the Publish Settings set it to publish an swf and an html page. Publish the file an the html page will be created for you.

Mp4 video file

I have a desperate problem. I need to convert a mp4 video file to an avi. I do not have quicktime pro. Please help!!! It is for my church and I need some help.

Download and use MPEG Streamclip. Note that AVI is a container, not a format; you will need to know what codecs they support to be certain of creating a compatible AVI.

My .MP4 video file won't "play video full screen" in Muse after I publish my .OAM out of Edge Animate.

My .MP4 video file won't "play video full screen" in Muse after I publish my .OAM out of Edge Animate. When I "Preview In Browser" through Edge it plays (I have created a shape and used the "play video full screen" snippet) in full screen mode just fine. When I "Preview Site In Browser" through Muse and click on the shape to PLAY VIDEO FULL SCREEN, it does nothing. I am new to both programs and can't figure out why it will work out of the preview window in Edge and won't work when I publish to Muse. Does anybody have an answer or a work-around for me?
