Hi everybody,

I downloaded a few of them seeing as a lot of the unrated need meta ones are only in that and mpeg2 (56k doesn't agree much with the latter) and I'm having nothing but trouble getting them to work.

After trying everything I had installed (wmp, winamp, quicktime player, divx player, even my dvd player software) I had a look for codecs and found two. One was for winamp, which let me listen to the audio but not see the video.

The second let me view the video and audio in wmp, but there were problems there. The audio was popping all the time (not present with the previous winamp codec) and the speeds seemed really whacked out especially in parts with the audio.

What was worst though, is that for every mp4 file I have got so far, wmp crashes just after a minute of playing the video.

I downloaded another video player, and it does the same thing.

If anybody could help that would be really great =)

I am using quicktime PRO player with windows xp and getting perfect results .However I do not like mp 4 . I think divx files are much better

I have the ericsson p900 phone and the video files are mp4. Where did you get the download for the viewer for mp4 for your PC? Are there any free software just to be able to view it?
