I am new to BB's and I have some vids I converted using a Ultra mobile 3gp video converter, however I can't watch them on my phone it always Unable to play content, or An error has occurred attempting to play media. I am running v4.5.0.77 and other info in sig

Duh, got it fixed, I had a media card from my old phone in there and it wasn't formated for the BB, it is now! all fixed.

Nope broke again, just went back to original problem. Din't change anything from the last fix, will try the remove batt cure'all

I must be the only one that can't do media files?

Yeah I'm having the same problem... same OS and using the same conversion program... so all in all I've wasted $30 on ultra mobile 3gp video converter... Any help would be great! i really hate using the desktop manager for converting since it kinda hit and miss... sometimes it will work but other times i might not have audio or other times i might have a video error...

Ive used a few different media converters. Freebies. Just google blackberry 3gp convert or something along those lines...Never had a problem..

i have tryed about 7 diff programs today and i didnt really like the results of any of them... i know that Ultra Mobile 3GP Video Converter can work... this is because i have played back videos from videos4blackberry. info and the guy that run that site and does the conversions uses that program... so i have been looking around for the settings he uses when he converts but i cant seem to find them... btw im converting from an .AVI video file... if that helps at all...

I had that problem for a while - the simplest solution is to us the Roxio Media Manager to convert any file you want, I've never had a problem doing it that way, although it can be slow. The other thing I started using was a free program called iPodMe, which converts videos to .mp4 for iPods but works really well for Curves. Lifehacker.com did a short review on it a while ago, and it has done wonders for the simplicity I wanted to convert my mpeg2 TV shows I record to something I can watch on my 8330.

I've also tried a dozen ways to convert video and finally bought one program that gave me the best results. The BBs seem to be sensitive to the format and settings and I had the most problems playing 3gp files.

I agree with abrognlie that mp4 coverted for ipods works the best.
