How to play MP4 files in Video Display compoenent?

Hello,
I am facing probelm with playing MP4 H.264 format 16/9 format in VideoDisplay compoenent on mobile devices.
I had tried with VideoDisplay and MP4 files from local storage as well as server located mp4 but
on player UI shows that playhead tip is moving - but black screen, no sound.
I am able to play! But the same file I am able to play with VLC player. Let me know what are the restrictions for playing video files...
I had tried as follows :
<s:VideoDisplay id="video"
autoDisplayFirstFrame="true" autoPlay="true"
source="http://10.15.20.147/video.mp4"/>
I will be very thankful if somebody can help me out?
With Regards,
Sachin Potdar

if it is only happening with server side videos it can be a cross-domain policy issue, you can take alook here for more information;

How to play mp4 files on ipad2

I imported photos and videos from Sony digital camera to ipad2, I opened the photos but couldn't open the video, it's mp4 files, how can I open and watch on ipad2?

The only way to get content into the Music app is via iTunes store downloads or syncing with itunes on a computer. You will need to find a third party media player such as VLC (whick integrates with DropBox and GoogleDrive, if that appeals to you).

Nokia n85 not playing MP4 files

Hi,
I never used the video podcasts, well I just tried to use some nokia video podcasts and they were in MP4 format. To my surprise my phone says it can not play the format and so it just played it as the audio file. I was reading at GSMArena.com and looks like N85 does support MP4 files.
Can any one help me on this? How can I play MP4 files on my phone?
Thanks,
Harpreet
N85
Software ver: 30.019
RM-334

Well, podcasts are mainly encoded in AVC@640x360 or 480x320. N85 plays AVC only at 320x240 resolution or lower. It has nothing to do with the container, in this case .mp4.

The latest n73 firmware supports the H.264/AVC codec and the DivX codec... I use this codec to convert my movies without problems...
Btw, the other 2 n73 phones that you used to play the video must have a new firmware, yours is too old!!
You mean the latest FW lets N73 to play DIVX video files without installing any 3rd party software like smartmovie?

Playing mp4 files on iPad

Hi All, this a desperate cry for help before I finally junk my new iPad: I am currently enrolled in an online program running on the Adobe Connect platform. The multimedia files (mp4, pdf etc) can not play on the iPad despite several attempts. Any explanation to this and suggestion on what to do?

You need an app to play those files....I am pretty sure. I play mp4 videos just fine on the app Goodplayer...the older version! The currently available Goodplayer app may not play mp4 files, since they had a dispute (exhorbitant fees) with Dolby, who banned their software use on Goodplayer and several other apps. I understand that there is an app available at the app store that has Dolby software, in that they collaborate with Dolby in some way. Be sure to check capabilities and limitations before you buy any such app. I don't know about pdf files.

Front Row won't play .mp4 files

I just recently started using Front Row and, for some reason, it won't play .mp4 files. The said files are in my Movie folder and show up in Front Row's "Movies" menu, but when I try to play them it says "Selected video could not be played, format was not recognized."
Please help!!

iTunes only supports MP4s encoded using the Main Profile, but many MP4s that you can download from the web are encoded using High Profile. These need to be converted.
You can use an app like VideoSpec or MediaInfo to list the encoding characteristics of your MP4s.

The codec of the .mp4 file should be H.264 or MPEG-4.

VLC is also a converter, but you'll encounter some issue when you use it to convert 3GP to MP4.

Can't play .mp4 files anymore

This has nothing to do with an iphone, and ipod or an ipad. My Macbook Pro running Lion 10.7.2 will not open or play .mp4 files any longer.
I've tried opening it in quickview and it shows up as a black screen that never plays.
It does the same when i open it with Quicktime X.
If i try opening with Quicktime Pro 7, it says 'The movie contains some invalid data' 'The movie could not be opened'.
someone please help me, i don't know what's going on, and i'm a video editor, so i need to be able to work with these files like i have been for the last few years

i can dropbox it to you. it's about 107MB
and i don't restart the computer. i shut it down completely and i've tried pressing down Command R and the power button all at once and holding Command R down after letting go of the power button
i've also tried holding down command and r and while they are pressed down, then i press the power button.
none of these tedious combinations have worked.
what's your email and i can send you the file once i have it up on drop box.

Windows media won't play mp4, audio no video

I upgraded from a desktop to the HP TouchSmart 15 TS Notebook PC so that I would have all the functionality
of a new operating system that would work. Guess I was mistaken?!?!?! I have the same problem I had with my old crappy desk-top, MP4 videos still don't play on Windows 8.1???? I get audio but no video????? just a black screen?????

According to Microsoft support website, Windows Media Player still won't support MP4 files. Though we can make WMP play MP4 video by install some codec, sometime we still encounter can't play MP4 in Windows Media Player issue. MP4 is a container format which may contain multiple video and audio streams. And the video and audio stream can be encoded any of several ways. If the MP4 video or audio codec is not WMP installed codec supported one, Windows Media Player won't play MP4 video of this kind. In order to solve "Windows Media Player won't play MP4 files even when the appropriate codec is installed" and to successfully play any MP4 video in Windows Media Player, we had better convert MP4 to Windows Media Player more supported video format like WMV, AVI.

HT4609 error -2048 when it doesn't play MP4 file

I thought itunes would play MP4 files, but I got the error -2048, what does this error mean??? with Xp OS
Keep smiling !!!

Yes you'll likely need to re-rip the album to your iPod.
How many songs are reported in your iTunes library?
When you said you selected your entire iTunes library and made sure they were not set to skip when shuffling, how exactly did you do that?
There seems to be a missing piece of information here that would help explain the differences in numbers.

Still Cant Play MP4 Files

Hi
The first time I downloaded QT 7.4 , I couldnt play MP4 files in QT and FR. I then had to reinstalled QT 7.3 with Pacifist and it was all okay. Today I downloaded Version 7.4.5 (25) and the same problem cropped up! I thought Apple would have fixed it by now! Anyone else facing the problem? Before installing I had run permissions. I am on the latets verion of Tiger

What's the nature of the files that can't play? Do you hear the audio but can't see the video? Were they converted from .flv using TubeSock or iSqunt? If so, when you download the latest iSquint, it comes with the Debreaker app that fixes those files.
There are other solutions like using Pacifist again or using an old version of a component, but both of those mean that, with every update you'll be doing it again. If your files are of the specific type listed above, that fix has worked through the last few updates with no problems.

Looking for some info on how to play music files on IPAD2

Hi and thanks for sharing. Trying to figure out how to play sound files such as wavs or mp3s on my ipad2 while I browse the internet or use my computer. I was trying to see if the music feature will play my songs or if I can import downloaded files from the net to itunes and if that will play in the background. I have an audio program that can send sound files to email and was trying to figure out how, similarly, to get this play in the background while I do things too. That and sound files downloaded from the internet. Do these go to iCloud when you download them? Can I import sounds into itunes with my iPad someway. (It's the only computer or device I own). Basically looking for a pathway to get music from my audio program that's sent to email, and clips I've DLed off sites on the internet, to play while I use the pad or browse the net. Thanks for your intel on the mission. Cheers!
