The reason behind flashing was: "unable to play video format not supported"

can you guys suggest be best video converter along with codec?

@ visN900 Since I flashed my n900 via Windows 8 I'm unable to connect my device via nokia pc suit might be due to mess up with pc suit drivers and other while flashing the device, any help would really appreciate it

Thanks

Sounds like a waste of time if that was your sole reason to reflash.

There are some extra codec packages that you could install, For the rest, I believe the best result for video playback on the n900 is achieved by "mplayer" for the command line.

It allows the best fine tuning and the most options of all the programs available.

Code:

sudo gainroot
apt-get update
apt-get install mplayer

/* Only installable, of course, when the repo's are back up, or you'd need to use one of the mirrors. */

Anyone know a working workaround to flash N900 in Windows 8.1 64-Bit? its not installing drivers and windows 7 64-Bit workaround is also not working.
