AVI and MPG

Hi

I've been trying to play avi's on my Dell axim x51. I transfer them over the a memory card no problem. However, when I try to open them using Media Player they won't run. They run no problem on my desktop machine. I'm puzzled. Can anybody help?

Dave

We should just make a stickie saying: "AVI and MPG Problems, USE TCPMP"

Hi

I'm sorry to be dim but which file do I load into my Axim. There are a few in the link:

http://corecodec.org/frs/?group_id=5...se_id=224#r224

I take it I load a file into axim and then run it? I downloaded tcpmp.setup.0.71.setup.exe onto the axim and it said it wasn't a valid application.

Can you help further? Is there a link for a step by step appraoch?

I'm also puzzled why the Media Player on the Axim doesn't play AVI's. I thought it would by default?

Dave

WMP is rubbish... Use TCPMP.

Download the .cab file(s) and copy it to the axim. Tap it in File Explorer and...voila!
