Nokia 6620 Speaker/Headphones SmartMovie issue

4 replies · 3,130 views · Started 01 November 2004

When playing video on my 6620, I've noticed that when using Real Player with the handsfree earpiece plugged into the pop port, that no sound comes from the speaker on the back of the phone (as it does if the earpiece is not plugged in). However, playing a video using SmartMovie, sound plays through both the earpiece and the speaker. The video is mono encoded (but is presumably pushing the same signal to both channels)

Does anyone know if using the Nokia "Stereo" headphones will prevent the audio from playing out of the speaker as well?

I'd like to be able to watch a video without disturbing people around me.

If you figure this one out...lemme know. I cannot make it work either...I have nokia's stereo headset and the sound comes out the speakerphone...heres an interesting thing though, if you play one of those demo movies that came w/ smartmovie viewer on phone, the sound comes outa the headset only. But anything other movie...no dice

And heres the fix FINALLY...upgrade to smartmovie 2.5...I did and so far, when I have my stereo headset plugged in IT COMES OUTA THE HEADSET!!!. No more sound from the speaker...woooohoooo
