I'm in the process of testing playback of 3 video fomats from an Android phone. Two of them don't play back at all, and the third shows video with no audio for a few seconds, then starts buffering constantly. Just wondering if anyone can let me know why these won't play back.
I'm working on a project to stream content directly from the phone to the Roku. Photos and music work great, and I can stream other videos downloaded to the phone from other sources. But I can't get the videos taken directly on the phone to work.
Thanks!
