My AVI Files Won't Play: Any ideas on how to correct this?
1851940
Are you saying the files you play on your computer that are already in avi format are the end result of the conversion, or the files before you even try to convert them. If they play fine before the conversion but not after (on the computer), it's a problem with the conversion. If they play fine after on the computer but not on the Latte, it's also a problem with the conversion, but only that you apparently didn't convert it within the requirements of the Latte. If it's not playing properly before you even attempt to convert it, there's another problem somewhere else, not to mention it makes me wonder why you would bother converting it to begin with. You have to be more specific about which is the case before anyone can help you, as well as give any other information you can think of that might be applicable.

If the unit you got is good and it was installed correctly, then try burning dvds using the mp4 format and cds as regular audio or data cds. This works for me. If these do not work have the unit checked out

The drive must be formatted as a fat32 and avi is the only file format I could get to play on my thumb drive.

If you have Windows 7, the Windows Media Player should play them. If you have an older version of Windows, you'll probably need to convert them, or you can upload them to YouTube (can leave them set to Private or Unlisted if you don't want the world to see them) and let YouTube convert them for you (though I've found that it doesn't do a perfect job of rendering them for you, they seem to be a little choppier when uploaded straight from AVCHD format vs. rendering them to .wmv first). To convert/render them yourself, a good program is Sony's Vegas Studio HD. About $90, but at that it's a lot cheaper than something like Adobe Premier and it does a good job of handling HD video.

There only certain formats that work when I use my USB harddraive to play movies. Try converting to from MP4 to AVI.

When I first got my tv, I remember playing video files with it via a usb key. The last time I tried, it did not appear to work, and I recall recreating the files using handbrake or something in different formats, and was never able to make it work. I think I was about to unplug everything else and retry it when I gave up and put it on disk and played it through the blu-ray player. This is the link for my particular tv , which displays a list of the supported video formats. http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/201104/20110427083150372/BN68-01691A-02Eng-110427.pdf I took a snap shot, but apparently can't paste or attach via this communication mode. ( sorry ) there were some avi modes listed.

It depends on what 's type of your video extention. Avi mkv. etc. Or somehow it's has been corrupt. Trying to deleted it and transfer it back. Good luck

Anyways, just because you have to convert your avi files doesn't mean it doesn't play avi files. They're still avi's, just configured differently. Most of the ones you have are probably too high resolution or bitrate or have something else about them the Latte is incompatible with, so you have to reencode them to make them meet its requirements. They're still avi files, though.

At first I had a problem just getting it to work with windows xp, I kept getting corrupt files, then I went to My Computer and clicked on the camera icon and that did the trick. It played with windows media player.

Also having problems: from the USB (as the dvd drive no longer recognizes discs, "Insert Disc" always pops up) tried .avi, .mp4, .wmv, .mov and none are recognized. will try other conversions.

I have the Coby Kyros MID7016 it plays AVI right out of the box, no extra softaware or apps needed. I just navigate to the file using the ES Manager App (comes on kyros) and click the movie saved on my SD card with my finger and coby plays it with a built in Movie player....super easy on mine.....FYI mine has Android 2.3

ive had .avi and mp4 files uploaded but received error messages until i downloaded a free video converter program called "Any Video Convertor". Its a great program to use and its FREE.

Looks like it uses h.264 which is a quicktime format. Do you have quicktime installed? I'm a mac user and never use AVI's so I hope I'm correct in this assumption.

you will need to try and install VLC media player, I had issues with this too and VLC media player worked. I don't remember where I found it, but this site might work. http://download.cnet.com/VLC-Media-Player/3000-13632_4-10267151.html
