MVI video to AVI video for SMPK8858 not working

I have a Sylvania SMPK8858 MP3 Player and I tried to convert a MVI video from my camera to AVI for the player but it just says 'wrong file format'. I used a AVI Converter that came in the cd that came with the player. I tried, but it did not work. So I was wondering how to convert MVI video to the Sylvania SMPK8858 MP3 Player.Thanks

Use a converter to convert your files to FLV. Like i said in an earlier post. this is the only way to get them to play opn this player. The instructions and disc that came with it are useless! LOL

    MVI format is produced by most digital still cameras, which are capable of shooting a limited amount of video, and because there is no tape, it is saved as an MVI file format. And MVI file extension generally means that the file is uncompressed, and will take up quite a bit of space, and can only be handled by a limited number of programs. So you may have problem to play, edit or use these digital videos.

    If you would like to convert MVI video to AVI, you have to use a MVI decoder, the program I am suing is Aunsoft Video Converter to transcode my MVI video from my Canon camcorder. This program has a good performance in converting mvi footages to other video formats without losing quality.
    This program works fine for me.
    And hope it can help you out.

Well, as we know, some cameras such as SX10 produces video in MVI format. And many of us would like to play camcorder video with media player or edit camcorder video with WMV. However, They does not recognize MVI files.

So what you should do is to convert your camcorder MVI video to WMV or AVI first with a video converter program, then import the converted videos to WMV for further enjoyment.

Luckily, this program can help you solve the problem: Pavtube Video Converter.

I bought a Sylvania 2.0 SMPK7834 today but it doesn't play avi format and says wrong file format.

There are plenty of video format converters available for free so you can convert avi to a more palatable format. Freemake is my favorite.

How do i get videos to download to my sylvania smpk8858 mp3 touch

Hello,

Before transferring video from the computer to the SMPK8858, the video must be in the matching avi format for the player.
The avi converter for this player can be installed by running the CD that came with the player.

The file format WMV, RM, AVI, VOB or DAT could be converted to AVI format by the AVIConverter.

When not having the CD at your disposal get a download of the zip file,
going to next link:
http://www.curtisint.com/html/CustService/Manuals/SYL_SMPK8858_DRIVER.ZIP
Right click the link above and select "Save Target As..." to save the file
to a location on your computer.
When the download has completed, unzip the zip file and run the Setup.exe file in the submap Video Convert Tool.
When the installation of the AVIConverter is ready, use the program for converting videos.

Transfers of the converted videos can be performed by connecting the USB cable between the USB port of the player and the computer.
Explore the folder on the computer for the converted videos and put them onto the player, seeing the device as a removable disk of about 8 GB or onto the micro SD card of max. 2 GB (when available).
Use the commands "copy and paste" or the "drag and drop method", just like copying files from the computer to an external USB memory stick or hard drive.
