Just a video icon in my N95 8GB Gallery

Sometimes when i transfer a video in my N95.. and when i checked out my Gallery.. it only shows a video icon.. its suppose to have a picture (like the picture at the start of the video) does anyone know why is this? all of my other videos has a picture icon.. but i have one that dont have one.. help! is this a problem with the file conversion?

Yes. Your phone can play MP4 files.If the phone does not recognize the file format or the codec it will not display the picture, instead you will see a slash on the icon.

Problem with N95 8Gb Gallery

I have a quite annoying problem with my N95 8Gb Gallery.
Since last week, when I open the gallery it appears a lot of system files that shouldn't be there instead of only showing my videos and photos. It makes the phone a lot slower and it crashes. It takes a lot of time to select any file.
Is it some kind of system trouble or have I messed up with something i shouldnt?
Thanks for the help and sorry about the writing mistakes

yes it is very odd!
Well I have tried to just loads 2 images from the laptop onto my mobile. I have tried doing a direct file transfer (mass media) and then also tried through Nokia PC suite-uploaded via the CD rom I was given.On both occasions this has been uncessful to view images from the gallery menu on the phone..crashes!
I think the photos are actually on the phone under the file manager folder I can find them stored here. However on opening the gallery to try and view these files, the phone freezes and I am unable to exit the menu -using the 'back' button have to press the red phone cancel button. Once out of the gallery folder and back to the main screen I can then no longer access and shortcut menus for about 3mins. Very frustrating. The most recent phone I have now, I got 2 days ago-I've not even plugged into my laptop, and when asking a friend to send me images via bluetooth I cannot open this either!! (it comes as a text format from bluetooth) and on opening the phone just freezes again. I try to save this when asked to mass memory and not phone memory.
I can take images on my 'phone camera' but again cannot view as unable to access the gallery-constantly freezes the phone.The images are not a large file just jpeg format for example 45KB another one I tried was much larger 1MB...
I still don't understand why this is happening all the time!!! Many thanks for your help.... (Orange are going to send me a new sim card to try) and see if this helps.

Nokia N95 8gb: Gallery not showing all pictures

Recently I became owner of a nokia n95 8gb.
So as a good child made a backup from my old N95-1 by using Ovi Suite
and restored it to the new Nokia n95 8gb
Now when I press the gallery button it shows me only 542 photos from the 1000 I almost have.
Any idea of what's going on here?
P.S Firmware version is 35.0.001

NOT WORKING???!!!!
THAT'S VERY BROAD CAN YOU SPECIFY WHAT EXACTLY IS "NOT WORKING??"
AND CAN YOU STOP SHOUTING?

'My Video' and 'Video' folders?? (N95 8GB)

what's is different between My Video and Video folders? only difference is that when I copy a video file into Video folder, I can see that video file in Image&Video menu under gallery. and if the file is located in My Video, then I can't see that in Image&Video folder. Only I can see that file in video center. Now I prefer to keep video files in My Video, cuz I don't like to see Image files and Video files together in Image&Video menu. can I delete the video folder and keep My video only?

You can keep your videos where you want without any ill effects.
Different apps may expect different default locations, as evident also by your description of "Gallery" vs. "Video Center" behaviour. Both of those coming from Nokia should, IMO, use the same folders, but apparently don't.

Copying to Main Memory (not Mass Memory)- N95 8GB

Hi,
While converting / transferring the videos from PC to N95 8GB throughPC Suite, I noticed that it copied the files in Main Memory instead of Mass Memory.
Please let me know how to configure that or there is some other issue with this.
Regards,
Riz

have you tried using Nokia Suite rather than Nokia PC Suite? as Nokia PC Suite is no longer being actively developed or is supported by Nokia. there should be an option in the Settings of Nokia Suite to change the save location to the Mass Memory.
if not, then you can always use Windows Explorer to copy the files to the Mass Memory that appears as Removable Disk in windows.

N95 8GB Video Manager "NOT CONVERTING"

My NSeries Video Manager for N95 8GB does not seem to be able to convert any video file. What's exactly happening is that after I've searched a folder and found the video files, whatever video type I choose (whether it's an .avi, or.mpg or.mov file) and select "convert and trasfer to phone" I get a message saying some of the video or audio codecs needed for converting are missing and that I should check the log file for more info. The funny thing is I can watch all those videos I've found with VideoManager, I just cannot convert them with it. What's my problem? Am I missing any codecs, and if yes where can I find them for downloading?

You can be missing codecs, but what I experienced with Video Manager is that it is very buggy. If you know how to use ffmpeg, you simply do not need Video Manager and can convert videos to H.264 formats fast.
I use the following parameters with ffmpeg:
ffmpeg -y -i "$input" -s 320x240 -async 1 -vcodec libx264 -b 200k -maxrate 384k -bufsize 384 -coder 0 -level 13 -acodec libfaac -ab 128k -threads 2 "$output"
Replace $input and $output with the input and output file paths respectively. Please be reminded that the ffmpeg version should support x264, otherwise it will not convert. After successful conversion, the file can be played by built-in RealPlayer.

Can N95-8GB play multiple video clips without inte...

I bought the N95 8gb few days ago. Then transfer some of my MV to its Video Centre. When I played those MV in N95, I need to click the arrow button to switch to the next song or previously song. Is there any way to create a video playlist in this phone? It does bother me so much, because I need to click it to switch to the next. Pain of the **bleep**!

CorePlayer allows you to create video playlists (www.coreplayer.com). You just select the files you want and it will play them in loop.
I think it's not possible with the built in Video Center.

N95 8GB Video Centre Shutting Down

My problem with my N95 8GB, the video centre application automatically closes itself after a few seconds when I open it.
The video centre work fine when it was brand new but as soon as I put my Sim Card in, I started to have problems.
I would really appreciate some help on this issue as it is driving me crazy
Many thanks,
s

The workaround is to load a JPG PNG or GIF picture icon (small file 90 KB), named EXACTLY the same as the videos in the My Videos folder where the videos are stored (or where ever the videos from video center are stored)

My sources tell me that the Spiderman 3 movie was only available to some markets.
The file is DRM protected (see link that korngear provided) so it cannot be copied and played on another device.
The movie itself is Pan&scan to fit the 4x3 aspect ratio of the screen. And the version I saw was in English with English subtitles but I'm not sure if this is different in each country, maybe each country has it's own language subtitiles.
Just one question loco:
what was the video specs?
I mean the bitare, FPS, etc and is it possible to encode Spidey 3 better than that one?
You know my PSP encode

N95 8GB as a video recording source?

Hi all,
Firstly i'll say i'm loving the N95 8GB
I was just wondering, is it possible to use the N95 8GB as a video recording source? What I mean is, can we record something directly to a PC via some video recording software, via USB?
Thanks,
Ozzie

No I don't think it's possible like that.
You can put a TV-in card in your PC and then use the TV-out cable from the N95 and record in the PC.
I've done this.

I followed your steps but I got this message.... "USB data transfer mode activated. MASS MEMORY MAY NOT BE USED DURING THIS TIME."
Actually the video file was not there anymore in my File Mgr folder but the problem is the video file is still there in Video centre > My videos folder. When I tried to delete the file using "c" or Options > delete, the error says "Unable to delete. File video.mp4 is open."
I also tried to reset the phone to its factory settings but still video file was there.
I think this is a bug. Pls advice. Tnx in advance.

LED lights are usefull upto 2 feet. I have N-93i and the LEDs do not produce enough light to make a decent clip. It is better to have a small 100W small video light running on slung battries.
