Can the NSeries phone play WMV/AVI/MPG/DAT/MPEG4/VCD/DVD video files?

Nokia N95 NSeries FAQ (N95 8GB, N81, N82, etc) - Bootstrike....
No - you need third party software to play most video types. SmartMovie is one example for XviD AVI files and it offers full screen landscape viewing too. For MPG/WMV and many other video files, there's CorePlayer. The only ones that you can play without additional software are MP4, 3GP and RealMedia(RM) files, all of which separate encoders are required. Nokia Video Manager is able to convert to MP4 at no charge. You can also try MediaCoder, another free utility.

How can I play AVI files from Blizzard Games?

Answers to Frequently Asked Questions
Videos belonging to games from Blizzard contain DivX video, but with a different FourCC, namely "BLZ0". To play such videos you need to use ffdshow for decoding DivX video. The regular DivX decoder won't work (unless you manually change the FourCC). If that doesn't solve the problem, then you should use Media Player Classic or VideoLAN to play the file.

Question: Why is my recorded video files broken into several avi files?

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) for PMP400 | Portable Elect...
Answer: This is a limitation of the chip unable to handle recorded video files large than 1GB, hence a new video file is automatically generated every hour, i.e. your recorded video will span several files if you are recording over 1hr. You can use software to merge them together after recording though, if you don't like them being broken into several files. See similar questions...

Q: Can you put a/an *insert episode name here* AVI on your page?

FAQ
A: AVI's while in the past were a focus on my page, they no longer are. They will be more of a extra to a List of Characters write up so you can see a small clip of the moment in real time. AVI's no longer will be in a seperate section and they no longer will be of things not listed on this page. They will be a supliment to already existing characters. So keep that in mind before you suggest an AVI for me to put up. See similar questions...

Why does the Player display a visualization instead of the video when I play an .avi file?

Playing music and video files
The video codec that is required to decode and display the video may not be installed on your computer. For example, if you are trying to play a file that was encoded using the DivX video codec and you do not have that codec installed on your computer, you will likely hear the audio portion of the file, but you won't see the video. For information about finding and downloading codecs, see the Using codecs FAQ. See similar questions...

How do I play the video files?

FAQ - Legacy of Kain: The Lost Worlds

So it has been disabled and you can "only" read MPEG files or DVD. See similar questions...
