[Q] Can't play .avi files
I thought that all of my videos can be played perfectly on Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, but it wasn't the case. What makes it weird is the video that can't be played are .avi files.. It's my first time encounter the problem with .avi files. Should I convert that into H.264 or MPEG-4, maybe?

[A]: You can use the professional AVI to Galaxy Tab 2 Converter
In fact, the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 video format limit is the headache for many users. To solve the AVI on Galaxy Tab 2 issues for the users, we did several tests, and the testing results show that Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 can fully support AVI files encoded in DivX, but if the files are encoded in XviD, Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 will not handle it. I've tried with stock video player & MX Player but they'll only show the thumbnail (in stock the thumbnail won't move as the other vids;static).

In that case, to play these AVI videos on Galaxy Tab 2, you can use the professional AVI to Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 Converter to help you reformat Xvid .avi to Galaxy Tab 2 supported format. Applying it, you can tweak the video, audio settings for Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 for getting a best quality output.

Step 2: Click on the dropdown menu of "Format", here you can choose “Samsung > Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1(*.mp4)” as the best export format.

Step 3: If you like, you can click "Settings" to change the video encoder, resolution, frame rate, etc. as you wish. According to my experience, the file size and video quality is based more on bitrate than resolution which means bitrate higher results in big file size, and lower visible quality loss, and vice versa.

Guide: How to Convert DVD to play on BlackBerry Z10

Codec- H.264
Resolution- 1280×720

Transfer 1080 60p MTS files from JVC GZ-VX700 to Final Cut Pro without incompatible errors

Summary:To make it easier for editing JVC GZ-VX700 videos on FCP 6/7/X, you can use JVC AVCHD MTS Converter for Mac, which was a great Mac JVC GZ-VX700 Converter.

Have you got JVC’s new line of “WiFi-enabled” Everio GZ-VX700 camcorder? The VX700 isn’t the cheapest of JVC’s 2012 Everio camcorders, but it comes with a modest $499 price tag that makes it a bit cheaper than the competition. To keep the costs down, however, JVC included no internal memory on the GZ-VX700, so you need to add in the cost of memory cards to your total package price. The performance of the camcorder, as well as its cheap construction, also didn’t leave us that impressed— but that’s what we’ve come to expect from mid-range JVC models.

GZ-VX700 uses the most popular recording format AVCHD(MTS/M2TS), which can up to 1920 x 1080p/60 fps. As we all know AVCHD features almost twice the recording time in HD quality than the conventional Motion JPEG, so some GZ-VX700 users that are new to AVCHD are likey to meet some troubles for playing and editing on Mac OS X. From Googling, I found many users couldn't get AVCHD .mts files to Final Cut Pro(x) for editing. Here, I will take JVC GZ-VX700 video as an example and share the best way to transfer JVC GZ-VX700 1080p MTS files to FCP



In fact, you'd better transform MTS to FCP's native format- Apple ProRes first, thus you can put videos to FCP without rendering and incompatible problems. To keep the original video quality for editing, you need a top Mac AVCHD Converter to transcode footage with best video and audio settings. Below is the perfect way to help you do that.

How to chnage AVCHD to ProRes keeping best quality



Step 1: Import MTS/M2TS to the MTS to ProRes Converter.

Tip: If you have several JVC GZ-VX700 AVCHD files and want to combine them to be one file, you can click the “Merge into one” box so that you can play these files without interruption.

Step 2: Select an output format for FCP X and set the output folder. Click on the “Format” and get the dropdown menu, then move you pointer to “Final Cut Pro”. Under the sub list are there a few formats which are all compatible with FCP. Then you can set the output folder by clicking “Browse” icon as you need.

Note: If you want the files to be in smaller size, you can follow Final Cut Pro > Apple ProRes 422(LT)(*mov)/Apple ProRes 422(*mov) option.

Step 3: Adjust audio and video parameters in Profile Settings. You can change the default codec, bit rate, frame rate, sample rate and audio channel according to your needs and optimize the output file quality.

Tips:
1. Recommend: Video Size:1920*1080 & Frame Rate:30 fps(NTSC) or 25fps(PAL)
2. If your file is 1080i, you can click Edit and select "deinterlacing" in the Effect to deinterlace 1080i files.

However, most of users who are bundled with the Sony software package can easily connect it with the computer using Sony PC Companion, but sometimes it doesn’t work.

These new phones do not support mass storage anymore, but it does support MTP which allows you to add or remove files from your 16GB or 32GB of phone storage. MTP drivers are always included with the stock Android phone software — but could have been removed by Sony to include their own drivers. Here we show you below on how to download and install the Sony USB drivers.

Step 1. Download and install Sony USB drivers or PC Companion first for Xperia Z.
Step 2. Connect Sony Xperia Z to PC using that USB cable.
Step 3. Now wait for the computer to recognize the device.
Step 4. Several drivers including the modem, MTP service etc. will be installed automatically.

Once finished, you will see a new media device in My Computer. You can now easily put media and image files to Xperia Z USB memory.

Well, for the Xperia Z users, most of them would like sync video files to Sony Xperia Z from computer for smooth playback. In this case, the priority you need to concern is the Sony Xperia Z video format. From its specs, we know Sony Xperia Z video format is limited to MP4, H.264, H.263, WMV.
