Can’t get music videos to play

[ Back ] [ Reply ] [ Log On ]
Trying to get my videos working. 
They are showing up in Videoplayer but not playing. 
They are all in MP4 format. 
Have added *.mp4; but still not playing. 
When I select a video I get a pop up from windows media player stating that the extension .mp4 is not recognised by wmp. Select yes to try to play it, I select yes but nothing happens. 

Away from Zenpoint the videos play using vlc if that helps. 

Any ideas please?

To use mp4 files with the Digital Center.

 

Just add the *.mp4 extension inside the administration / movie center and make sure to install the right codec.

 

Try one of these codec packs:

or

To add covers, you just have to put a JPEG image beside the mpg file and name it the same as your mpg file.

How_to_train_a_dragon.mp4
How_to_train_a_dragon.jpg

To add title and descriptions to your movies, just add another file with the same name and with the extension xml.

How_to_train_a_dragon.xml

And make the xml file like this:

<movie>
<title>How to Train Your Dragon</title>
<description>As the son of a Viking leader on the cusp of manhood, shy Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III faces a rite of passage: He must kill a dragon to prove his warrior mettle. But after downing a feared dragon, he realizes that he no longer wants to destroy it. So, he befriends the beast -- which he names Toothless -- much to the chagrin of his warrior father</description>

the folderthumb image displays the artist image and you would add another image in that folder with the same name as the song/video

The song/video would be in the "Jon Bon Jovi" artist folder (ie up one)
