How to play videos in other formats other than mp4 in ipod touch.

how to play videos in other formats other than mp4 in ipod touch.
I have tried an app named VLC streamer. But I never knew how to use it...
Can someone suggest anything else?

Under "General" in iTunes Preferences, does "Play
Videos in.." allow you to set the playback of videos
as you desire?
kind of. It does spawn a new window, which is great (thanks!). But it seems to be at a lower resolution - does iTunes compress further or display at lower res? What is the function that people are supposed to be able to use to use iTunes as a media center to watch movies?

    How to play video files that are in Drop box on iPod?

    I am going to have to write a technote about this, because it comes up a lot.
    Flash Player itself is designed to play SWF content as a browser plugin or as an ActiveX control (when it's IE Windows).
    There is a standalone Flash Player, but that's something Adobe  provides directly as a feature of Flash CS4 Professional. It gets installed with Flash. We have made some standalone players available on http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html, but not all (and I don't know why.  Looking into it)
    There are numerous 3rd party standalone SWF players out there though.  Some designed to just play video, others that play full SWF. I suggest a google search of 'play SWF standalone' and read the results.
    On the Mac, consumers who want to play SWF content off their desktop can use the Adobe Media Player. You can import a local SWF (and FLV and other video) and play it in AMP.  Get it here:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/mediaplayer/
    That's Mac only, doesn't work on Windows.

  • How to play videos with mkv format on imac

    i have purchased a new imac(intel) just four days back. i want to know what is the method for playing videow with mkv format.

    It could be a 'difficult' form of Matroska file. FYI Matroska is just a container like MOV or AVI, and some mkv have the video encoded with Real Video Codec (RV9 RV10). Perian+QT can't decode this, but VLC will play .mkv files just fine on OS X, as long as they don't use H.264!
    It's a bit of a lottery until Matroska decide to support the Apple platform. I have found this:
    http://mkv4mac.free.fr/index.php?lang=en&p=lec
    which may help.
    But there may be another workaround: 1. Get Info the mkv file
    2. Change to extension to wmv. Save as wmv and that could work better.
    Or this link may be helpful:

    Recently, a poster (ZachP14) suggested this:
    "There's a program called Plex that runs .mkv files awesome on my 2.0 ghz macbook."
    http://www.plexapp.com/
    Maybe worth a try?

  • How do I free up 'Other' Space on my iPod Touch?

    So I just bought an 8GB iPod Touch 4 today, and while syncing my music and downloading apps, I noticed there was a chunk of space called "Other" on my iPod (Shows in iTunes) That takes up a large 0.9 GB. Since my iPod is an 8GB and I want to keep the space as open as possible, I did short research on how I could get rid of this. The only thing I found was http://ipodtoucher55.blogspot.com/2009/01/free-up-other-space.html .
    So I have a few questions:
    1. Can anyone confirm that this method still works? The article was posted in 2009, and I am wondering if it is outdated and won't work.
    2. Step 3 on the page says "Click on the Sync button in the bottom right corner, don't cancel the backup." I click "Sync" in the bottom right corner, it loads something for a second, then nothing happens. Is this normal? If I follow the rest of the steps, will my Apps still be there?
    3. Are there any other methods that I could use to free up "Other" space? I want to keep all my apps (I can put my music/videos back in later) because I paid money for them, and I'm scared I might lose them if I do something wrong.
    Thanks in advance for your help, as you can see I'm still figuring things out >.<

    1. Yes, all those methods will still work for your device.
    2/3. To make sure all of your apps are synced on to your computer, disconnect your device from your computer. Then look on the Applications page of iTunes, if they are there, that means that all of your paid apps have been backed up on to your computer and you are safe to restore.

  • HT4623 how can i remove the other storage from my ipod touch 5g which is using almost 3gb?

    When i am trying to sync my ipod,itunes shows i have almost 3 GB other files.I Know it will be corrupted files.I need to remove or get rid of this storage to free some space.How can I do it?Its an ipod touch 5th generation.Any suggestions will be well appreciated.Please help....

    An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB indicates corrupted files.

    Next, usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.

  • How do I get my Apple TV Screensaver to play an album other than Photostream?

    How do I get my Apple TV Screensaver to play an album other than Photostream?

    If you don't want to use a remote with your computer the easiest thing to do is just to turn the IR off. (System Preferences > Security > General, click on the Advanced button in the bottom right corner - If the button is greyed out, click on the lock icon and enter your administrators password)
    If you still want to use your computer remote then you must pair your computers remote with the computer AND the Apple TV remote with the Apple TV.
    To pair a remote with a device hold down the menu and FF buttons together for six seconds or until you see a chain icon on screen (best take the computer into another room, or turn it off, when you do this)

  • I can't get my player to play videos while other apps are open IPAD 4gen

    I can't get my player to play videos while other apps are open IPAD 4gen
    Whenever, I have pages open or any other app I press the home button twice, and then I swipe to the right and obtain the menu that allows me to alter brightness or sound. At this point I press play and nothing works. However, once I go back to my youtube page, and press the play button then it works. If anyone could help me that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.

    just click the serial number in itunes ... geeze... just kidding
    you might be able to find it on the mac...
    in finder do your username under places then library then application support then MobileSync then Backups
    the shortest folder name should be the UDID
    of course that assumes it ever made a backup...
    if it made more than one there will be some -date-blah on the end...

    could u pls help me how to play videos in c2-02 mobile?
    Moderator's notes: The post was edited. A more appropriate subject is provided.

    If you want to play videos present in your pc on your phone, they must be converted to phone supported resolution.
    You have to convert the high resolution videos to low resolution 320X240, MP4 format.
    You can do so with Format Factory software for PC.
    Get it at www.pcfreetime.com
    Any further help, feel free to ask.

    What a bummer.
    Now I'm stuck with a just-about useless camera. I really need something as small as the FH1 (it's TINY).
    Hard-drive camcorders record MPG2, which I assume makes them just as useless.
    Is then MiniDV the only choice for a sub-$500 1080i/p camera that will allow me to edit footage without converting?
    If so, any tips on the smallest one out there?
    Google came up with Sony's DCR-PC55, but it's four years old and only does SD...
    Do you want good OR do you want cheap? That is the decision you need to make. Also, tiny tends to be the opposite of good.
    P.S. AIC converted it best; ProRes(Lo/HQ) left it pixelated for playback. But it takes about an hour a minute, and increases the file-size tenfold, so it's no good anyway.
    Yes, your actual editable video file is going to be 10x bigger than a MPEG-4 file. That is what you want.
    P.S. 2 "....FCP is converting your video behind the scenes which is causing all your problems."
    If that's the case, then my oldish MacBook Pro (2GHz Duo, 2GB RAM) has enough juice to play the 640x480 MPG4 clips smoothly, but not the HD ones. Could the latest MacBook (2.5/6/8GHz, 8GB RAM) could play the 1080p30 clips smoothly?
    No, you still have the same problem. MPEG-4 files are non-editable. You really need to convert to an editable format and then bring that into FCP. MPEG Streamclip is going to be your best choice.
