Videos are not playing on the Dropbox site

i have the same problem. did you ever find a solution

i have same issue, will only play audio..... what do you mean "have appropriate app", what is it????

what is the approprate app??????

Hey wildpig, 

It really depends on the extension. Most videos are viewable on a phone, though to better determine which application opens them, you'll have to look if it's an ".mp4, .avi etc." file. 

(eg. Ella's Wedding.mp4")

To further look into that with you, could you let me know some more details on what you're experiencing when trying to view your videos on your phone? 

Looking forward to hearing back from you! 

thanks so much Jane, i down loaded AC3 player, that seems to fix problem

Perfect wildpig, glad to hear you got this sorted, all should be fine from now on! :white_check_mark: :relieved:

Thanks for letting me know here, hope you have a great rest of the day ahead! :coffee: 

I have just tried to play some high speed video on my PC.  Its an mp4 file and has alwayd played perfectly over the last 12 months. I have not changed browser which is Google.

Now when I go to the file it says "This file cant't be previewed"  with the download button.  I dont want to download, I simply want to review the high speed video on line.

What do I need to do?

Hi,

This question is regarding the app on my Galaxy Mega.

I've been using DB for years.

I've made close to 30 videos in both wmv or avi formats.

However, for some reason, this one video, which I've uploaded, downloaded and re-uploaded many times without issue (for editing purposes), now shows "video failed to load".

I thought that it might be a storage problem, so I erased some files to bring me back under the 2GB limit, but still no dice.

I can play them on a 3rd party media player, but I would like to have the option to play them through DB.

I've tried clearing cache.

It's not a browser issue.

I doubt that the file is corrupt because I've used the same movie maker for every other video, and for videos that I've uploaded subsequent to the one in question.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

Jack
