I have the coby 705 mp4 player. I downloaded the software for converting videos but I don't know how to get videos from online onto my computer and I don't know how to get them onto my mp4. please help, trying to get it set for christmas

Hi!

Your player supports only the MTV video file type...
To convert your videos to the MTV file type, use MTV Video Converter OR the bundled Coby Media Manager (CMM) software (if you don't have it, download it from here)!
Detailed instructions on installation/usage of CMM are found on the User's Guide...

If you are satisfied, rate my solution with 4 "thumbs" or (even better) add a testimonial.

Best regards,
Pelu.

Check the video resolution which is compatible for your coby mp4 player,and then convert the videos to that resolution.

Youtube videos are usually FLV flies which are not compatible with WMV. You must convert the video using video conversion software. Renaming the file does not convert the format the video file format.

Make sure which formats the player supports. Avi is just the container and can have many formats . According to the specs the player supports wmv,avi and flv try converting the videos again but use a resolution of 220x176, it might help as the player would not have to scale the video down. I have also noticed that the transcend player MP860 had it's own converter software. Check if your friends have the MP860 or MP870 player and install the software off the cd and try converting the video files as the coby may support the same format.

Hello,

Hello, for media transfers onto the MP705 you can use either Coby Media Manager software or Windows Media Player 11.
(For fitting video, use the Video Converter software on a computer first.)
Manual for the MP705.

0. Install and update software for transfers on the computer.
1. Open the software program and connect the USB cable between the
player and the computer, to get the device detected in the software.
2. Create a playlist in the software.
3. Synchronize the playlist.

How to use the software Coby Media Manager or WMP 11, look in the Setup Guide.

If this was helpful or when needing more help, I'd appreciate your comment.

Make sure you convert to mpeg4 with 220x176 and 30 fps. The conversion software that came with the unit won't allow you to do this. I solved the problem with AVS Video Converter 6. You can get it at www.avs4you.com. Chose "To MPEG" then select "edit" and enter 220 for width and 176 for height. Then enter 30 fps for "frame rate". This should do it. Good luck.

I recommend you have a trial of Video Download Studio.
The program is good at video conversion.
It helps you convert online videos to all kinds of video and audio format like AVI, WMV, MPEG4, MP3, WMA which can be import to Windows Movie Maker or other mobile devise such as iPod, iPhone, PSP MP3 Player etc
