Ok. Someone search the thread where they guide how to reset tracker and scan your media again. I cant find it right now.

let me know if opening via file manager after a reboot plays anything. quite interested to follow this up
tracker-processes --hard-reset
to kill the media indexer and did a N900 reboot - sill the same problems with video and the media player
Stupid Nokia

I get the following error on the 9 trailer with gst-launch:
I may be doing something wrong because I'm pretty stupid at xterm though.
EDIT: Rebooting seems to have fixed playback for the 9 trailer and N900 ad, still endless white dots on the m4v files. Also it seems I just can't get gst-launch to work at all, maybe someone can help with the syntax.

Its my pride thats in harms ways, the guys I work with are all iPhone girls, so when I sold mine to get the N900 i got a lot of stick, and now when theres problems like this i gotta listen to their gloating ..... now thats annoying.. lol
wonder if this is something the community can fix or whether we will have to wait for nokia...??

wonder if the n900 uses Quicktime for decoding h.264 codecs, if not could we put it on there???

VLC uses same codecs as mplayer I believe, but you could give it a try as well

hmmmm vlc?? would be a gimmic really if nothing else, what we need is a solution to another Nokia omission....
WTF is up with the N900's movies playing capabilities, and why does it get worse with every update?? (well the last 2 (only 2) updates, at least)

I put a bunch more movies on my device to test out subtitles. Getting super flaky playback of what I think are mostly h264 videos, some in avi containers as well. Some won't play, some required a reboot to play, one that played flaky in week 42 firmware won't play at all now. I'm gonna try and get a couple more hours sleep but I'll post up codec info later. There definitely seem to be video playback problems.
EDIT: I'd also suggest renaming this thread to something that doesn't sound like a whining thread. "Video playback problems in PR1.1" or something like that.
