Archos 3 Vision Digital Media Player Logo
Posted on May 07, 2010

I tried putting videos with all different file formats onto my Archos 3 vision -- mp4, wmv, avi... But each time I input it, and try to play it, a 'File Format Error' Sign pops up and it won't play... I have tried hitting the reset button, restarting the machine. I don't know what to do.

Well, one thing u need to know is that Archos 3 vision cant support all file formats and codecs. U need to transcode video files to compatible format with Archos 3 vision. I recommend u Pavtube Video Converter(http://www.pavtube.com/video_converter/) which can transcode between any video files, and it still offers u foramt presets for Archos.

How to convert AVI to MP4

Audio Video Interleaved is the full form of AVI that is a computer graphics animation format. It is used in Microsoft Video for Windows and it interleaves synchronized audio and digitized video frames into one single file. You can play the clips generated in AVI format in a Windows PC that is independent of the screen resolution and palette.<br /> The Moving Pictures Experts Group defined MPEG-4. This format helps deliver high quality audio and video streams for cell phones and broadband connections. The MP4 format also supports 3D objects, texts, and different media files. MP4 (short form for MPEG-4) is a container format that helps one combine different streams of multimedia into one file that is streamable and supports all kinds of multimedia data.

Sony Vegas Movie studio 8.0 - I put in pictures, video and music, but only the music plays. No video or photos appear when I play the video

Because Sony Vegas support WMV, MPG (MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4), MP4, MOV, ASF, SWF, FLV, etc. It doesn't support .avi format. So I want to know your video files format.
