I had loads of problems trying to add video files to my player. It wouldnt play the suggested AVI files but I hhad a brainwave and downloaded a free encoder called anyvideoconverter and converted the files I wanted to FLV and iot finally works! Yaaay! I hope this is helpful. I know I had a heck of a time and was ready to pull out my hair from all the frustration. Good luck! David
Videos on the SMPK8858 can be downloaded using the Video File Format Conversion, see page 8 of the manual: http://www.curtisint.com/html/custservice/manuals/SYL_SMPK8858_EN.PDF
The converter can be installed, using the CD. Start the file Setup.exe in the map Video Convert Tool. This will install the AVIConverter, a program to put the video in the matching format.
When not having the CD at your disposal, the CD installer can be downloaded as a zip-file. Direct to the download link: CD Driver download for the SMPK 8858.
I hope this gives all the information you need. Just post a comment when needing more help.

I'm having the same problem and I have installed the File Format Conversion. It still says it's the wrong format. Any advice please? Thank you
