Hi, please could you help me with this small problem..
When I first got my phantom I could record my video and it would play on my phone when using the dji app.
Now when I do one it keeps saying video cannot be played. I do stop recording before I turn off the phantom.  
I now have to put the sd card into the laptop.
Any ideas please?
Many thanks
Clive

I think you need to have the PH on while you are trying to view through the app.

Yeah it's always on, you can transfer the video from the app to your phone but it shows no video. It's on the sd card tho as I always find it when using the laptop

Yeah, it should let you look at your files on both the SD card and the ones that have been transferred to the phone. What kind of phone is it? Somebody with that type of phone might be able to help. The files work when you transfer them to your PC?

I've got a Samsung galaxy alpha, like I said it worked a treat when I first got the drone. Still using the same phone etc. Yes the file works fine from pc. It's strange and very annoying ha

I have an S3 and I cant play videos from the quad even if I put the SD card straight into the phone, someone mentioned that if you record in 1080Pi then it wont play but if you lower the video aspect to say 760 etc then it may work.

I just use the laptop as the quality is better

So sorry, didn't get a notification you'd left a reply. Come to think of it I think I did mess with the settings before I had  the trouble. I will investigate and let you know. Many thanks

Hi Clive,
I think it has something to do with your phone. I do not have any experience with Samsung Galaxy Alpha. I use iPhone6+ or iPad mini, usually the iPad mini. Check your settings, make sure nothing weird is running in the backgroud and do a hard shut down of the phone.

If that does not work maybe it is the DJI app. You could uninstall the app and then reinstall it.

It's exactly what crash1sttime said. Changed the camera settings from 1080i 60 down to 1080 15 and it's working fine again now. Guess the phone just couldn't handle true hd.

Many thanks to all that helped
Love this forum
