Trouble with Video (MP4) Help!

[Jaggz]

Anyone had any success viewing the P900 MP4's on a Mac using Quicktime? I can see the MMS .3gp files okay but the MP4's are a no-go, any ideas?

Not sure why this should be a problem, I've encoded MP4 files in Quicktime (6.5 Pro) and swapped back and forth with only one slight problem - Sometimes QT player throws up an error saying it can't play the file, but I just click ignore, and the file plays anyway. Just a small bug in QT player I think.

Weird! Mine just plays the sound and just a black video stream with blocks of colour every now and then, MP4 which I make using the Mac are fine on the P900 though.

That's what I'm getting for windows. Quicktime plays sound but no video.

Yes, thats it. VLC will play the video but not the sound . . . darn!

Aha! It would seem that the 3ivx codec is messing things up, uninstalling it seems to do the trick.
