Video unlimited

Hi can anyone help as to why i am unable to download from video unlimited at any kind of reasonable rate of speed?. Also in order to fully download a movie I have to keep turning on and off WI-if. This didn't happen the first couple of times, perhaps I HAVE CHANGED SETTINGS WITHOUT KNOWING. CAN. ANY HELP WOULD BE REALLY APPRECIATED.

Have you tried this with a secondary Wi-Fi connection to narrow down the cause of the problem?

  • Problem with Video unlimited playback on xperia z1

    Hello,
    I am having a problem viewing a video I purchased on Video Unlimited. I* have purchased and viewed videos on my Xperia Z1 before. The video shows up in my 'movies' folder but when I click on it, it begins loading then I receive the message 'Cannot play video'.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    ccp1967 

    Did you copy it to another storage device or from another phone or did you download it directly onto this device and then try to play it?

  • Sony Video Unlimited no HD playback for Xperia Z2

    Hello Sony,
    When will Sony Xperia Z2 owners be able to watch purchased movies through Sony Video Unlimited in HD on their devices?? Currently HD movies purchased will only play in HD on the Playstation console and SD on mobile devices, I think given that the Xperia Z2 can support huge external storage card sizes that we should be able to be given the HD option, as well as that we have a Full HD screen display.

    As I understand this, this is a limitation in the service, not a technical issue. Usually, content owners do not allow HD playback to mobile devices, even if HD is available from the same service for viewing in your living room.
    That is a shame since HD movies bought from the Sony Video Unlimited store would look so nice on the Sony Xperia Z2 Full HD screen as oppose to paying for movies just to have a SD version available for mobile. Hope they are able to provide the HD content for Xperia Mobiles/tablets as I probably like most other Sony fans purchase content from the Sony ecosystem, I seen quite a lot of movies in Google Play that give the option to purchase HD version.

  • Video Unlimited Keeps Asking To Update

    When I open Video Unlimited I'm prompted to update. The update downloads and installs, but the app keeps prompting me to update over and over again.
    I can't even access the app in the Android Market because the Tablet is an incompatible device! So I can't uninstall and do a fresh install.

    I resolved the issue. Apparently the shortcut on the desktop was causing the problem. I had to access the app from the app drawer and it opened with no prompting.
    Why can't the app be accessed in the Android Market? The Tablet comes up as not compatible.

  • Video unlimited unable to download

    Hi I have a xperia z tablet and I'm trying to download movies to the tablet with video unlimited and I keep getting not connected to network can anyone help thanks

  • Can't play videos after I move them to the micro sd memory card

    I moved my videos bought on video unlimited to the micr sd card to save space using the file transfer app that came with the tablet and now they won't play. I just get the message " can't play video". If I move back onto internal memory they won't play - I suppose because not in the original location but can't see how to fix this. I want to store and play from the sd card. What am I doing wrong please!

    I would advise contacting Video Unlimited support for your region regarding this as it sounds like an issue with the DRM on the files: http://en.support.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/app/help/VU/p1

  • After downloading newest android update video won't play from within photos.

    After updating to the latest Android software, the video playback will not work and the error message "Can't play video" appears when trying to access video from within the photos section, they are visible as thumbnails and first frames. .. They can still be played back from the videos section but it used to work on both. This has affected all videos that are on the phone. Does anyone have any ideas?  Thanks, 

    spoke to online help today, they told me to backup my phone carry out software repair using pc companion. it did nothing but wipe my apps, the problem on mine comes from it won't allow films to be downloaded to the memory card, it will however download to the phone, which is crap seeing how small the onboard memory is. i've submitted an email and no doubt in a week or 2 there will be another update to sort this. it seems that none of these updates are tested properely as when my xperia z updated once you lost loadspeaker till the came up with a patch file.
    my xperia z1 will play vids but when i updated there was about 40gb from video unlimited saved on the memory card, which immediately came up out of rental.... which is a pile of crap seeing as they were bought films. lets keep fingers crossed this is fixed quick.

  • No PlayStation Video for my Xperia Z2 Tablet

    Hello forum, 
    I have noticed that my Xperia Z2 phone has the PS Video replacing the previous Sony Video Unlimited, however my Xperia Z2 Tablet doesn't have the PS Video, it still has Sony Video Unlimited. I have tried installing a PS Video apk however that didn't install.
    Both are running on Lollipop latest update build - 23.1.A.1.28 and my region is United Kingdom
    Am I missing an update for it or is the Xperia Z2 Tablet not getting the app update?
    Many Thanks
    Solved!

    @aaronf938
    It's probably not compatible with the tablets just yet

  • Contract has been up, and thinking of prepaid.

    My contact has been completed for 2 years and I am on month to month. My phone is the Casio Brigade. It has lasted longer than any phone i have ever had until recently the text quit working. Tried to connect my back up phone (Moto Razor flip phone) and VZ said I had to get a $10 data plan (**) on a phone that is older than my Brigade. I am thinking of switching to prepaid because I would come out cheaper even with my 20% monthly discount, which is not on my plan below. I am looking at the $60 2 gig and $70 4 gig prepaid plan. They are suppose to be 3G only, but I am not concern with that.
    These are my concerns and questions.
    1. Will there be a cancellation fee since my contract has been up for 2 years and do I have to give so many days notice.
    2. Can I take my Phone # with me to prepaid.
    3. I will probably use a Droid bionic or Casio commando on the prepaid. (phones given by friends)
    4. I don't download movies or music. I might listen to Pandora or watch a YouTube video.
    5. I live in a rural area, so VZW and ATT are the only ones that work.
    6. Why the hell, is VZ wanting to charge me $10 data on my older back up phone. By the way I have used this same Moto Razor flip phone before with no extra charge when my original phone broke. So why $10 now?
    7. Asurion wont cover nothing. Always been told wast of money if your phone is to old.
    8. This is my plan. The total is $77.83 or $65 w/ discount. Which has no data, With a 2 gig plan would be almost $100. The prepaid would $60

  • Maximum number of still images in a sequence exceeded

    Model Name: iMac
    Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo
    Processors: 2.8 Ghz
    Memory: 4GB
    Bus Speed: 800MHz
    FCP 7.0.3
    So what's the maximum number of still images that are allowed in a single sequence in FCP 7?
    Does it vary from FCP 6, 5, Express etc.?

    You have to zoom in to read the yellow message box that appears when the mouse is loitering over the orange unlimited-time bar above the sequence.
    For your pleasure I have typed it out:
    "Video: Unlimited
    Audio: Media File
    _*The maximum number of real-time still images has been exceeded in this sequence.*_
    A motion of composting effect can not be played in real time.
    Real time playback is not supported for the clip on track 1.
    The nested sequence on track 2 does not match this sequence settings.
    The nested sequence on track 11 does not match this sequence settings."
    Basically we're doing the "Artists Showcase" and artists send in photos and not all of them will be able to match the sequence settings since we take what we can get.
    Besides that the estimated number of still images is 480.

  • Lightroom 5 Shutdown problem

    I own Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 and I have had nothing but trouble with my application. I installed it originally out of the box, uploaded some photos to test it out and then after about 2 days of use, the application would shutdown every time I tried to open it. I uninstalled it and then reinstalled. Same thing. It work for a few days, I uploaded more photos and then the applications wouldn't open. Can anyone help me? Do you think it is just a faulty disk?
    Also, I got a weird error message that read: "Sorry, there seems to be a problem with the installation process (error code: A12E1) For troubleshooting tips, please visit our customer support page." Anyone know anything about that error code?

    Hi everyone,
    I am also facing this issue (bug?), indeed when choosing:
    - Preview
    - Play.
    The result is quite the same: when choosing "Play" I have a whole black screen; With "Preview" it is the only display area which "freezes". In both cases the only solution is to exit LR5 (using Alt+F4).
    I have not experienced the "pretty bicolor" screen.
    I can export the slideshow in PDF as well as in JPEG. However trying to "export as video" crashes having the following message "An error of undetremined type occured". It does not depend on the slideshow length (here 13 slides) nor on the resolution (here 480 x 270). (Screen capture included)
    LR3 worked perfectly. I have not tested LR4 directly jumping from LR3 to LR5.
    My configuration:
    - Micrososoft Windows 7 Professional 64bits (SP1)
    - Proc: AMD Phenom II x6 1045T
    - RAM: 4096 MB
    - HD1 (OS): 112 GB (with 18 GB free)
    - HD2 (catalogs): 212 GB (with 48 GB free)
    - Graphic card: NVIDIA GeForce 6600 (2040 MB) (driver version 9.18.13.783 - 2013/02/19)
    - Cache memory (pictures): 50 GB
    - Cache memory (video): unlimited
    Looking into your configuration I have remarked your graphic card is also an NVIDIA model. Is there a link?
    Looking forward to your feedback.

  • Z3 Compact Updates

    Hi,
    I've just picked up an unlocked version of the Z3 compact from Amazon. This is my first Sony android device so in unfamiliar territory.
    I've been reading that apps like Whats new have been updated to 1.4+and it removes it from the swipe up gesture and there are other apps like the album which have some updates. Unfortunately the update centre isnt picking up anyof these updates. I just had some updates for Video Unlimited and the movie creator.
    My software version is 23.0.1.A.5.77 and have update centre 2.3.0.A.0.8
    I want to avoid sideloading updates.

    Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
    It's hard to say exactly when these apps will be available for you to update. But if you just started to use the phone, it can take some time before Update Centre notifies you about available updates. Just use the phone normally and you will receive a notification when you have updates available.
