At this point i have to mention that my daily work is IT-Administrator and consultant i many areas. I sent an email demanding a proper test and solution, or just a refund. After almost one month i could not believe it was so freaking hard to just play a video file from usb or sd card. At first I just wanted a standard resolution 320x240pixels and chose avi profile. So i went a little further, and tried this movaviconverter myself. Which other parameters they did not tell even after two more emails. Second i have a feeling they did even look for any freeware converters, but they did said that "all other program adapted parameters and playback was not possible". My second mail had a file converted to 320x240 pixel, and it was an AVI. Because they used the first file i sent them, before I knew about the limitation. Unfortunately, this is a trial version, so there is a "trial message' hardcoded over the screen."Īt first I was pissed. "MovaviVideoConverter" and succeeded to downsize the file (320x180). So in case customer can reduce the resolution properly, it should work We have tried "Designer confirmed that all other parameters except resolution are within specification. I ate pretty much everything without any changes to the files. My old F900BT was a killer on this subject. The point is this unit should be able to play video files. PS: I refuse to resample all the videos to a fix size of 400x240 pixels for all files. If so, they cant take it back and give me another one cheaper. I payed a lot for this high end unit, and I do not want to spent time and use lots of dvd for this matter. I am 100% sure, if i create a DVD from all the video files, it will work, but that is not my goal. And then I tried burning the video files onto a dvd. Just for fun, i tried to put a DVD movie in the player, and that worked flawless. If not, then I requested that they convert my file, to whatever PE requieres, and send it to me to have a template. If it works ok, then my unit has some issues. So now i sent one avi sample, of 320x240pixels and asked them to fucking try it. I tried converting to MP4, AVI and WMV (which are the only formats allowed from USB/SD storage), and nothing. unable to play media file, check manual for supported files. So i tried, i converted a bunch of files, to a maximum resolution of 320x240 pixels. Wonder why ? DVD format if much more and it plays. Which states that from USB or SD storage it can only play video files of 400x240 pixel. So they presented me with the table of supported video formats. Since they also had one of the files i tried to play, they just saw that the size of the video was 460x380 pixels. I thought I had a good response and there was the solution, but i only wish. For now i do not dare to hack my unit since i have not found one thread if my unit is supported or not for this. Just for the note, all my tests have been done while parked.įyi: My unit uses the the same firmware as F50, and AvicX850 series. Can this be the cause of why i cant play any video files from USB/SD ? Besides this everything is fine. In my case i have not done that since it was just working. All the bypass guides refer to moving this one also one spot to left. I haven't done anything to my yellow wire (Mute) it is in it's original place. I have ONLY grounded the brake wire, which solved the issue with grayed manu items. This caused my unit to believe that it was in motion all the time so i could not change GPS address, or of course play dvd. When it came the green handbrake wire was not grounded. I really have to mention this one more time since no one reacted on my previous attempt. Been trying, divx, avi, mpeg, mp4, all the same. So i am guessing this is nothing to do with the files. I tried to avvoind higher resolution since i do not know if the unit have any issues with HD material. Most of the videofiles are like 640x380 or 480 og less. I tried checking the video files, convert them for ipod, or less resolution, even used Handbrake software as mentioned in another thread, still no change. I tried to update my unit with the latest firmware, still no go. I have tried USB and SD card (micro), and all i get is Unable to playback, check user manual. But i cannot get any video file play at all. I can use GPS functions while driving, DVD play also while driving. My unit F950DAB, is not hacked, only parkbrake grounded. And after it does this on every file, it ends with Cannot play files. I am about to go out of my mind, and tried to sort this problem a while now, and i did my best to search and try, but i am stuck at the same point: Unable to playback file.
