Viewing Videos From An SD Card

Atomo · 02-12-2012, 05:55 PM

Hi all, first post here but I must say all of you have contributed to my enjoyment of the Kobo Vox so far.

I have an issue I have not been able to resolve, forgive me if it's more straightforward than I think it is.

I have a 32GB Micro SD card in my Vox. I have installed the VLC and Meridian Media Players. I have put video files on the SD card, AVIs and MKVs.
The issue is neither Media Player picks them up. Is this right? I tried with the files just being in the root directory and in a folder marked 'Videos'. I have loaded EPUBs from the SD card so I know it's working.

What am I missing here?

With vlc, you need to tell it in the preferences what folders to monitor. Presumably you can add the extsd there...
