Default Playing video from SD card

I've searched the forums and I can't find anything recent concerning how to play video from SD cards.

When I copy some files over directly from my iTunes library, MMI sees them on the card, but reports the "file is damaged". I can play the file just fine when the SD card is in my laptop, so that can't be it.

Any tips?

(BTW, I'm a new user here and the proud owner of a brand new Q7 bought only yesterday. Beautiful car!)

Congrats on the Q!

Take a look at this thread: https://www.audiworld.com/forums/sho...t=movie&page=2

I used Handbrake a while back put several movies and music videos on my SD card. These are the settings I used in Handbrake.

...I used Handbrake to create the MPEG4 .m4v file (H.264 doesn't work). I used the Normal setting, not one of the Apple ones. Picture size is 720 x 480. Very important: THE MAX SUPPORTED BITRATE IS 2000kbps (I think I found this in the fine print in the MMI manual). There is a setting in Handbrake for average bitrate so I set it to 1800kbps and it worked. Movies I made with a bitrate higher than this didn't play...
