Videos need to be converted to AVI format. Your player should have come with a cd with converter software.
What format do video files have to be for this model MP3 player? I cant get video files to be recognized on it.

Videos need to be converted to AVI format. Your player should have come with a cd with converter software.

I hope this helps. - m8
The converter software on the mini CD is called: "AVIConverter QVGA 20f En Setup.exe"
The only place I have been able to find a download of it on the web is a Chinese site:
http://everlink.ezconn.net/board/content.asp?ref=18&step=1&re_level=1&board_id=test&page=1
Most of the text is in Chinese but the hot link for the download filename is in English. It looks as if the link works.

I have searched high and low to find the software, thinking it would solve my issues with SMPK8854B. These two websites I discovered the next day, thought would be helpful to anyone in a similar situation.
My MP3 player touch screen was frozen and it also would not sync with Windows Media Player.
Turns out, all I had to do was to push the pinhole reset button, was able to sync with media player. Never lost any music after resetting.
P.S. I am opperating on Windows 7.
Hope this helps!
mp3 must be for it while wma may not be recognized
