Samsung Galaxy Won't Play MP4 Files
Firstly, let's see some examples that MP4 can't play on Samsung Galaxy:
- One of my friends told me that he could view MP4 videos on his Galaxy S3. I also have S3 and so I tried viewing MP4 videos on my phone as well. But when I try, I am getting a message like, "Error viewing the video". Is anyone else having such an issue? Please provide me with a solution.
- Any ideas why my Samsung Galaxy Spica doesn't play MP4 videos. I've downloaded an MP4 onto my SD card. It turns up in the 'Video Player' widget/app. When I go to play it I'm met with "Sorry, this video cannot be played". The entire blurb says that MP4s are supposed to be OK.
- My newly bought Samsung Galaxy Ace does not play MP4 video files. How can I resolve this issue?
- I have downloaded a movie in MP4 format and while playing it on my Samsung Galaxy S, i can see the picture but there is no sound coming. Why?
Samsung gradually released the Galaxy series including the latest Samsung Galaxy S6 edge and Galaxy Note 5, Galaxy S6, Galaxy S5, Galaxy S3, Galaxy S2, Galaxy Note 4, Galaxy Note 2, Galaxy Ace and so on since 2010. From Samsung official website, we can easily find that the series of Samsung Galaxy not only support MP4, H.264 format, but also support AVI, WebM, 3GP, WMV format.
