How can I get WMP to convert videos to my IRiver again?

Question

I've been having issues syncing most video files to my IRiver X20 through Windows Media Player. The error message says "Windows Media Player cannot convert the file to the format required by the device." I've tried downloading codecs, de-attaching and reattaching the USB connector, but nothing works. The video files are .avi so they should be compatible. What's wrong with it?

Answer 2

IRiver X20 support Video MPEG4, WMV, you just get a video convert to convert avi to wmv or mp4 for playing on it,

I always use xilisoft video converter, It can convert between almost all popular video formats including DVD, VCD, MOV, RM, AVI, MPEG, WMV, MPEG1/2/4, 3GP, Xvid, h264, FLV, etc, it works great for me, If you need more info, here you can free download it
