Is there a limit to the size of a movie that will show up in the gallery or on the phone at all? I transfered a 350mb movie to my phone in mp4 format and I cant find it. It wont show up in the gallery like every other MP4 video I have.
Any suggestions? It shows up in my file manager with a question mark icon beside it. When I select it, it simply says Cannot Open File.

No, there is no limit, not in that range anyway. I have bigger movies on my N80 that work.

I've also found that if the vid resolution is higher than the highest res it records at (352 x 288) then it won't play, although sometimes it will play just the sound.
