The T9 will only play files which have been converted in Samsung Media Studio first, so do this to the AVI file and before transferring it to the T9.

I use Windows Media Player 10 to sync my device. It allowed me to sync the video but it's not showing up on the player. What happened?

[kredig]

it doesn´t show up because it isn´t a .swf file. you need to sync it with sms

After i convert a video to avi and post on to the sms and try to convert it to t9 format ut says the video codec for the video does not exist. what do i have to do to make the conversion work?

Your computer either lacks the correct codecs to convert the file (in which case download the K-lite codec pack, here), or SMS simply cannot convert the video file in which case you will need to use another software to convert the video into a format it will accept.

No problem , does that mean you got it working with the codec pack, or is SMS still making life hard for you?

[yappledapple]

My problem with vixy is that it only converts a few seconds of a vid for me. Are there any solutions.

[cobracjason]

Could somebody please download the gwar music video "WAR PARTY" from dailymotion and the clip of gwar on jerry springer from youtube. I really can't seem to get anything to work for me my email address iscobracjason***********. I just need the file so i can run it through media studio.

[Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander]

cobracjason, did you try using online FLV converters like vixy.net and http://www.convertdirect.com?

[pimpalimpa]

i tried using the converter on a megavideo stream and gives me errors - does anyone have a convert that works with megavideo? http://www.megavideo.com streaming files

Here is something when you want to rip DVD's. People told people in the forum that you should use "DVD Decrypter" for thet ( http://www.mrbass.org/dvdrip/ ) but i tried it out and i was kind of disappointed with this program because the quality of the different chapters from the DVD varied a lot. I mean with that that the picture was at some chapters good and at some was it "pixly" and the sound was sometimes really quiet.
Afterwards i tried "DVD Shrink" ( http://www.softpedia.com/get/CD-DVD-...D-Shrink.shtml ). This prgram is a lot better because it is up-to-date and you have more settings for ripping the DVD.
When you have ripped the DVD then you can use the program "Super" ( http://www.erightsoft.com/S6Kg1.html (scroll down to the mirrors) and then you can decode the DVD files to .AVI or whatever you want for a file type.
Afterwards you just use SMS to convert the .AVI files to .SVI to put the video on the t9.

I seem to have the same problems as linuxglobal. Total freeze and/or the "The instruction at "0x01ed5065" referenced memory at "0x01ff4ba0". The memory could not be "read" Click OK to terminate the program."-error when trying to convert video.

Here's a list:
-Unable to convert videofiles larger than ~50 mb. The progress bar stays at 0% for hours and when I'm canceling the convertion the whole thing freezes. Not really very important to fix because videos can be split into several files by a few mouseclicks.
-Problem with avi-files with Xvid/Divx-codec. I'm able to import them to SMS and also play them in the videoplayer, that works fine. But SMS recognizes them as videofiles being like 2 seconds long. I'm able to convert them to svi and transfer them, but T9 also think they are 2s. I guess the T9 doesn't support these codecs, which I can understand. (edit: uh, perhaps they are supported, it's just that I cant get it to work. Anyway, getting this to work would be the best for me because xvid compresses the files well and SMS seem to getting along with avi.
-This "memory could not me read"-error contantly pops up during convertion, making the convertion to temporary pause, until I press the OK-button.
-Extremly slow convertion. 12MB/4min of MP4 just took me 60 mins to convert. Though, wmv/avi doesn't normally take this long. MPEG (1-4) seem to be SMS's worst enemy.

Anyone else having the same problems, or anyone know a solution? Lemme know

edit: also forgot to say that my T9 fw is 1.68 and my SMS version is 5.1.5.3

I find this very odd that you had these problems, as I ripped DVD's a while back (using the same method as above, go figure), and I converted it all into one large file with DivX codec. I'm not saying that you're wrong or anything but I do find it very strange that you had these problems and I didn't.

However, I suppose I should mention that it converted the videos just fine, however they were upside down. Go figure.

Sorry to interrupt but I did ever step in the guide but instead of RIVA I used Vixy to convert my .flv files to .avi. And it all went well until I turned on my T9 and tried to play my video I keep getting the message "This File is an Unsupported File" when it clearly shows its a .svi file. So I don't know what I'm doing wrong.Please help.

[Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander]

Is it possible that you converted the AVI to SVI using Samsung Media Studio when the T9 was not connected and did not select 'YP-T9' before converting the video? If the SVI has been optimised for playback on another model, it may not work on the T9. If not, is this problem a one-off or has it happened more than once with the same video file?

And welcome to abi>> BlinkingI.

okay i guess i found the problem. when i converted the .vob files with super into .avi with the DivX-codec then some of the files have a really low sound level. but when i converted the files into mpeg II then everything worked fine!
i don´t know but maybe it is a little bug of "super" that it has that.
