Sansa e250 Video Conversion

I think you are doing it right. now the video won't play at all is an issue that I haven't come across. Make sure you don't change anything else in the file. Edit only the two areas described by the first dood.

check and see if that worlds. for some reason I think there might need to be ahhhh! I know. Switch the sansa over to USB mode open the ram on the sansa, delete all the folders that pop up on the file manager. this forces the sansa to re-init the next time you connect. the re-init process places the new files onto the device. Try that!

 

Ok, i have gotten a dvd to play on my sansa e250, but first of all, it will only play in some other laguage, and the beginning audio is not in line with the video. I used DVD Decrypter, then just put it strait into the sansa, anyone know how to fix it?? oh, and i am not that technical, so i am trying my best to understand all the previous ideas.

 

I have the e250. I recently moved and have lost the original disc with the media converter software.
Can someone send a copy to me? I've been trying to get it from SanDisk but so far no luck. Kinda makes me wish I'd bought the Ipod since they let you download the software from their site.

Or if there is a way to convert and upload video without media converter.
I have RiverPast software that will convert to MOV format what else do I need to do?
thanks

 

Ok, I have tried everything listed on these boards, but cant seem to get a longer video to play on my e270. I have got one of my videos (Meet the Fockers) from dvd into Mpeg form and onto my computer. I changed the sansa media converter settings so it will break the video every 2 hours, and I also changed the other settings listed on the first page. I convert the video, and it puts it into .mov, without splitting the movie. Great. However, when I put it onto my e270 and try and play it it says Please used Sansa Media Converter to convert this file.

What am I doing wrong!? I have tried re-setting the sansa database, putting it into recovery mode, but cant seem to get the video to play.

If someone could please, please, give exact, step by step instructions on how to get this video to play, I would greatly appreciate it as well as the other 100 people on this board who are having the same problem as me.

 

get the new firmware?

 

Yea I installed the firmware.

 

Where can I find the latest firmware without using the auto-updater?
In the sandisk.com I can only find the URL of the updater utility..

 

try askin around at the anything but ipod forum

you can get themes and stuff too

 

Texasjrk - You have to select a different sound track, I usually test to find the right one. AC3 works best, there is a free codec for it on the web...just look for it in google.

 

I have Sansa e 260!Great device, but ...
I'm having some trouble with a converter.I can not convert any movie!
It starts converting and then it stops after a while!Reports failed reason is unknown!This happens with 700 MB files, but with smaller files (50-60 MB), works graet!!!
Could someboby help me??!!
Any one??
Thanx!

 

micile: Something is wrong with your system, I haven't come across any limitations on file size transfer. Make sure your system is set to MCS and not USB. I've passed 1.5 gig of movie to the Sansa, once I figured out the routine, with no problems.

 

Vidiot250:What do you mean my system to be set to MSC and not USB??!
My Sansa e260 is set to MSC mode, but that's not the problem!
The Converter is ...
What can be wrong with the system?
With pictures and smaller movies(100 MB) everything is ok!
I put them thru a converter and then they finish up in Sansa Media Converter folder from where I copy them in Sansa e260 when ever I want.

 

... and if you can tell me the routine ...!!!
Thanks !!

 

micile: Short of understanding your problem. I'm catching from you that you can't convert files larger than 100meg. I've sent huge files over using the sansa media converter. I suspected your system for RAM and maybe Speed. The transfer can be processor intensive, I ripped movies from DVD using one of the many products available. Tested and tested to get to a routine. But for the transfer, I merely add the file to the Sansa converter...then it transfers. Typically the whole file, but the load time at the sansa player level...takes about 30 seconds to cue the movie up.

Audio, pictures, etc...all have worked fine on my e250. Hit me at wallville@hotmail.com...we can work more directly with each other that way.

 

Can anyone send me the SANSA conversion software. I would be o so grateful. I have purchased an e250 for my granddaughter and I would love to put some cool videos on it for her. THANKS >>>>>>>>>>

 

I haven't been able to find that program anywhere on the net. Bearshare, Limewire. ect. I tried it all. Thanks again, Brad

 

I converted an .avi file, I don't how!!! for the first and, looks like, last time ... because it's not doing it again!!!
Transfered it to e260, but when I tryed to play it: Please use Sansa Media Coverter to convert this file!!!
Now what??
HELP!!!
