How to solve Unsupported MP4 Files for Playing on samsung / Sony / LG TV

THANK YOU SO MUCH .IT WORKED

didnt know i could add subtitle in the video using the VLC as easy as that lol. i used to search torrent files for those thanks

It worked . Thank you very much

thanks

awesome!!! thank you for exist!! 10++

Terrible accent!

the video works for me but it stops midway ang then says usupported file format

My problem is that I have external hard drives with video recordings from my (now defunct) samsung tv that won't play on my laptop because apparently they're in some dodgy encrypted format and I need them.

VLC IS FREE IGNORE THE PERSON THAT THINKS IT COST

no it doesnt work., vlc crashes and the file is saved but it has 0kb

If you simply rename the file to something very simple like "movie.mp4" it usually solves the problem on Samsung smart TV's

Is the original video quality will reduced ?

Careful, most of these programs are not as free as claimed! By the way the problem with mp4 files not playing on certain TV's can sometimes be solved surprisingly easy. Change the filenaname (not format) to something short like for example 1984 Dune and remove all special character's from it. That works more often than you may think, and any time consuming conversion process can be avoided. Believe me in same cases the name of the file makes the video unreadable for TV's like Bravia's from Sony. Try it out by making the name short, easy and without special character's.

I guess I have to keep converting my Pokemon movie into different formats until it works on my Sony Bravia 😞

Great

Fix the "fiexd" in the thumbnail 👍

this is the dumbest thing ever.. sony tv just wont allow usb to work...why ?

Interested in any collaboration?

Thank you. This method works great

thank you! this really helped me :)

Thank you very much! It works well.

There is no usb option in my "source list"

After conversion the video plays on my TV but there is no sound...

Thanks for the tip.

Unbelievable! Thanks!

Both 720p or 1080p tv/device is the same right?

thx, you made my parants so happy :)

what if it is 4K File ???
What Profile Option we have to choose help me with that

I followed step by step the video but after all the convertion took like 2 seconds to be done and I still was not able to fix the problem.

Thanks for sharing, my videos work now 👍😊🌻🌹

Still not working

Ty, it work but take a long time to convert video.

I don't understand how my Samsung TV is so bad at reading video files. Feels like it can't read 75% of the files I try to watch. That's basically its only job for fuck's sake!
Anyway, thanks,.
