[QUOTE="Genby, post: 19731, member: 3969"] Hi, everybody! I have an issue which is crucial for me since I'm very used to cut and compose my videos on Android mobile (Asus Zenfone 2 ZE551ML). After the latest Spark firmware update all of my phone apps (gallery, Androvid, Adobe Clip) can't play mp4 files which I download from Spark via cable. The show videos like corrupt, length "00.00", but the same files are easily played on my computer. And actually there [I]is[/I] one Android app which still plays those mp4 files well - it's called MX Player. What I'm forced to do now is uploading all my cuts to YouTube directly from MX Player, then downloading them back from there to my phone (using online YouTube to mp4 converter), then editing (with all the quality losses), then uploading the whole clip on YouTube finally. Of course I can switch to computer editing, but the phone works much better for me and allows to quickly edit cuts and compose videos "on the go". Seems like they changed/added some codec or something at DJI with that new firmware (well, I'm not sure how NEW this firmware is, actually, I didn't connect my Spark to internet for 6 months, and when I did it, it refused to fly until I update the firmware, so I had to update it). Does anyone have the same trouble or any idea why that happens? Appreciate any kind of help! [/QUOTE]
