How to play mp4 on 9300i

Me too. Same problem. Anyone else? Is this a W.A.D.? (Works As Designed.)

Why not just convert it to AVI format using a converter like Smartmovie?

Because the phone doesn't seem to play AVI files.

So, no one knows how to fix this problem?

pls install smart move which is the best App to play movie on phone, it supports avi fileand full screen. why cannot play mp4 on your phone? cos your player doesn't support this kind of video code

Thank you kenny2006. That is a great help!

The 9500's ROM doesn't have the right (AVC/H.264) video codec, it's too old a machine now.

Sorry. Though I really don't see why Nokia couldn't add this codec in a firmware upgrade...... 8-(

I added SmartMovie as recommended. It was annoying at first to pay another $30, but well worth it.

Attempting to work with the extremely wide screen of the phone, I picked Evita. I ripped it, cropped it some more, converted it to a standard mpeg at 640x200, and then used SmartMovie on it.

It took an hour and a half (and I have a crankin' machine), but it was marvelous. I got spectacular results using "Series 80 fullscreen", 256k, and "reduce frames" checked. Emanently watchable.

So, nuts to MP4.
