HTC Desire : Troubleshooting - Video File Only Play Sound And No Image
Apr 26, 2010
I am having problems getting videos to play on my HTC Desire. I have converted my .avi files into Mpeg4 so as the device could read them ok. I'm using the free programme 'Handbrake' to convert the files. And it does so with no problems. The new mpeg4 files play with sound and image.
The problem occurs when I transfer the images onto the phones SD card. The video files are picked up via the camera folder (where you can play videos as there is no actual video player) as well as on the video player app I downloaded today - 'mVideoPlayer', without any problems but when I click to play the video the screen is black and only the sound works (even though on my pc the file played fine).
Do I need to download a codec or something? I would have thought that as the Desire was compatible with mpeg4 files that it would play them straight off without having to add software.

In my application, RTSP streams play only sound without video, but if i specify the video path as a local file, it plays the video and audio.
How would i get the RTSP streams to show video?

I have had my Evo since launch day. I have recorded some videos for fun and they play back on the phone nicely. But today, I connected the phone to my PC and wanted to play a video. I got video with no sound. I tried several I recorded some at 720fps and some at VGA. Same results. Videos I downloaded from You Tube play fine. Just the ones I recorded on my phone. I have a relatively new HP running Widows 7 and have used Quick Time and Windows Media Player. Neither would play the sound. Anyone have a problem like this?

What could be the reason that a mp4 video file without sound doesn't play correctly when using the VideoView class? The video plays just fine in vlc, mplayer and ubuntu media player. It has been created on the device using ffmpeg. It is like 5 seconds long, so nothing especially big. Codec is H263 with AAC-Audio, though the audio signal is just empty. The problem is, that the video plays, but the image doesn't change, or at least doesn't change a lot. It seems more like a still image, though small movements is sometimes visible but not at all what has been encoded. I noticed that the VideoView stops playing but the time continues to step up, so it doesn't stop counting after 5 seconds but just goes on counting.
I'm using the emulator. Can that be related? I see the following messages in logcat:

I have a URL for a video file which I need to play using the native Video-player of the handset. I figured using Intent.ACTION_VIEW and setting the URI as Intent data, I am able to achieve the aforementioned on G1 except HTC hero. In case of Hero, I have to explicitly set the class Name in the Intent to start the default Video Player: intent.setClassName("com.htc.album","com.htc.album.ViewVideo")
However, I am not comfortable with this approach as it might break on other Android devices.
1. What would be the best way to play this video url via Intent, irrespective of the handset?
2. How to conditionally setClassName in Intent, specific to a Handset?
Writing a standalone Video Player for our app is NOT an option we can afford at the moment.

I am trying to get a video to pop up and play. I can get it to work when I use the first uri (that is commented out in the below code), but when I try to use the second uri (from the resource), I get the following error:

From researching the error, it looks like I might have to declare an activity in the manifest but I'm not sure if that applies here?? Can someone point me in the right direction?

Do you find that when you take videos using the Desire the sound is really poor (very low)? Initially I thought it was because I had my finger covering the mic (bottom right).

I've seen a thread which covers this topic - but I've started a new one, as the question is slightly different.I've just downloaded the Act 1 video player (demo) from the Android Market to see if the sound and video are out of sync when using this media player - and they're not. The video plays perfectly. The downside is that to play more than 2 minutes, I have to buy the app - even though it's not a lot of money ($1.79), that's beside the point! I see that many people with this sync fault have reported it to HTC, but we're all waiting for a firmware update to resolve it. I think giving this app for free would resolve most people's issues!

Have you ever tryied to make a video when you're at a concert? (I'm not speaking about a classical concert!)
I did and the result was horrible for the sound part. Is there a trick when I want a good quality audio? just keeping the Phone in the air is not enough

While watching videos on youtube on my HTC Desire, I noticed a lag in the sound vs. the video. That lag isn't present when I watch it on my laptop (well, the typical 53ms lag yes, but nothing else). I've tried multiple videos and all the same results. Is there a video player I should test this out with, using 5-10 minute clips?

I have tried to transfer an mp4 (Terminator salvation) from a laptop to my phone and when I play it, I get the 'cannot play video' message.I thought that I may have done something wrong when transferring so today I also tested it via Bluetooth with a friend who also has the desire but on o2 (I am with Orange). I turned on the ftp server and it took the file via, went to 100% completing the BT transfer but again, when I try and play it I get the exact same message. This file was also mp4. This file works on his Desire (it is a 26 minute cartoon called the Boondocks) but not mine. I cannot understand the inconsistency as you would think that the same would apply to both mine and his.My last phone was a n95 and I am not someone who regularly takes an interest in new gadgets coming out, making this big jump (only ever used Nokia's and Ericson's before the desire). However, I have had a new phone (always top of the range through upgrade) every 12/18 months since 2001 so I am very much used to adjusting to new phones, albeit not the 'smartphone' generation. So I am not a technophobe but nor am I a tech geek. But I cannot for the life of me work this one out.

I have finally set up my email to the HTC's message POP3. It's all set up fine, I can send emails from it (have tested this too) - the only, somewhat major problem!, is that it says my inbox has 'No Mail' regardless of how many times I refresh the page. It's showing my mail in the sent folder ok but have never been able to retrieve my mail from my inbox for some bizarre reason.

So I search alot on YouTube and love it. So when I get the desire going and Youtube on, it searches really quick, then I play it in normal and HD it only plays for 7 seconds.
Just one I thought so searched for a tune on youtube with a still picture but soundtrack, but still only 7 seconds.
After 7 seconds it seems to want to load the next part but nothing happens! Have I to change a setting?

I looked into this forum and in Google but with no success so far. Yesterday I bought HTC Desire and can not understand how to play the supported video formats- mp4, wmv and 3gp on the device. I am not trying to stream these files from Internet- I have them already downloaded on my PC. I want to copy them onto my Desire and somehow play them. I have several questions: 1. Do I need to re size the video files- do they require specific resolution in order to be played? 2. Do I need to copy these videos to a specific folder on the device? Or I can just create new folder through my PC and dump them there. 3. How the hell can I actually play the movies once they get onto the device? I can not see an application which launches movies. There is a music player but not a movie player. Do I need to download a widget or an application which runs movies? If yes- please recommend a good one.

I deleted 5 or 6 photos from my gallery. Now when I scroll through my gallery where the photos were, is just a blank space. I deleted the pics thinking it would automatically compress the gallery together, not leave me with the blanks.

Watching a 30 min episode of a tv show, uses 25% of my Desire's battery life. Watching a 90 min movie uses 75% (funnily enough!)
Obviously, powering the lovely screen uses up a lot of juice. Just wondering whether there is any particular type of file that is more CPU intensive to decode and run, than others?
I currently use Mpeg 4 format. The program I use to convert my avi's to mpeg4, gives me different quality level options.
Would it make a difference to power consumption if I was to convert the avi's to a lower quality mpeg4 file?

My HTC Desire seems to have stopped singing the "tik tik" sound (the sound when you clicked on any program).
In Settings -> Sound Settings -> Feedback
I have them all checked, but for some odd reason, I still didn't get the sound.
