The place where I work is great. they gave me a milestone catalog and I got to choose any gift I wanted.
I chose a Philips MP3 player. It holds text, photos, videos, music, and audio (voice recordings)..... Anyway, in order to play videos they have to be converted to FLV. No problem. I took some videos from Youtube, and they went into the player smooth as butter. But what I really wanted to do was take the videos from my cell phone camera and store them. So I set up a private account on youtube, and put them there. then I put them into the player from Youtube just like all the others. But when I tried to play them back, the videos were wildly distorted! I don't know what I did wrong. Aren't all FLV files the same? Can someone here give me some help on what I need to do to store these videos on the MP3 player?

I've noticed that a lot of stuff on YouTube appears to be distorted. Here are a couple of tutorials that might help:
YouTube Tutorial Other Tutorial Adding the "&fmt=18" really does help to clear up the videos.

What I was saying was that the home videos are not distorted when they are in my cell phone, and they are not distorted as I play them on tube after uploading, but as soon as I put them in my MP3 player, they suddenly become distorted.

Which formats are your videos in to begin with? Google free format converters if you can. Your search might look something like this... "(avi) to flv converter freeware" if your videos are originally avi
Will you walk into my parlour? said the Spider to the Fly,
Tis the prettiest little parlour that ever you did spy; The way into my parlour is up a winding stair, And I've a many curious things to show when you are there. Oh no, no, said the little Fly, to ask me is in vain, For who goes up your winding stair -can ne'er come down again. |

I got a converter on the cd that came with mine. Its called media converter 2.5 and I've not found anything it won't reformat.

Mine was Philips SA32xx Media converter, but when I try to put the cell phone camera vids in it to convert, it rejects them.
