Taking pictures and video on my Canon SD1000, removing the card and putting into the N810. I can view the still photos, but it won't play back the movies I recorded. The movie is listed as this under file manager, removable memory. MVI_0035. When I try to play it, it opens the Media Player and gives me "File format not supported" After I hit okay, its listed as MVI_0035.AVI

I'm totally new to this, and not at all tech savvy. Can somebody please help. Thanks in advance!!!!

(I have a mini SDHC 4gb card)

You probably need to use the Internet Tablet Video Converter

Have you tried Mplayer? *.avi is like *.doc, there's no telling what's hiding behind the extension.

Can't imagine that 'old' video formats like MPEG1/2, MJPEG are supported. It doesn't matter what player app you choose. In MPlayer it will be a slideshow with distorted sound.

I can't play movies from a Canon digicam or a MPEG2 stream from my DVB card. These ~640x480 formats are to much for a N8x0.

If you have the time in holiday/business and your notebook, you can convert it to a MPG4/DivX format. Or instead of that: use your notebook to watch the movie. And let your tablet at home if this one can't play usual movie files

Thank you all for your help. I'm trying to play the movies by taking the card directly out of the Canon, and playing it in my NIT. I'll be travelling for a year, and was hoping to upload the movies to an online site. So, I won't have another "safe" computer to do this from...just me and my trusty N810. If i shrink the resolution on the movie from 640, to 320 and from 30 fps to 15fps, do you think that will work, or do you think I should install the MPlayer on the N810. Thank you all so much!!!

Upload the movie with your N810 to an online site is no problem. Playing a movie recorded from a Canon digicam isn't that what you expect.

Well, I was hoping I wouldn't have to step into any intenet cafes unless I absolutely had to...was hoping to use free hotspots to do all of my transactions in fear of what computers in internet cafes can do to one's self security. Plus, I'd like to watch them on the internet tablet, then upload them. I guess I'll try MPlayer and let you all know how it goes. thanks to all!!!!

funny that the movie included with the N810 file called NokiaN810.avi is obviously an avi video file. And it plays too.

I tried MPlayer and it doesn't play the movies that i downloaded that the preinstalled media player had no problem playing before, and it won't play the movies i recorded on canon either. MPlayer sort of plays the movies I had before, but not the ones I took on my Canon...some sound from the Canon video, but that lasts about 3 secs. Any other suggestions? Since I'm clueless about formatting, should I format the SDHC card on my NIT, before I use it in Canon? Thanks in advance!!!!
