The cause is a wrong AudioType code in the MP4 container. The correct should be 64, but some encoders put this code as 103. To change this I use mp4UI (http://mp4ui.sourceforge.net/). The steps are:1. open mp4ui2. Go to the options tab3. Disable Add hint tracks, make ISMA compliant, optimize on close and enable Advanced functions/information4. go to the general tab and open your mp4 file5. right click on the audio track(s) and choose set properties in the advance submenu6. in the preset list choose AudioType, change the value to 64 and click OK7. Click on close and try to open your file with quicktime. It should work. It has worked for me with about a hundred files...Good Luck!

-2401: an invalid sample description was found in the movie. We got this message from A 8525 user named DarkShadows:I am at a loss. I uploaded my videos from my 8525 (which play fine on the https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1089403?start=30&tstart=0 phone) to save space. But they will not play on my windows machine. I am trying to play them using Quicktime.Two types of extensions are present mp4 & 3gp. the 3gp plays in Quicktime but the mp4 doesn't play. I downloaded VCLan and it played them but with no audio, which is present when it is played on the phone. The Mp4 gives me this error message: Error -2401: an invalid sample http://asktheadmin.blogspot.com/2008/07/why-cant-i-play-my-mp4-videos-on-my.html description was found in the movie.Any ideas? I got this wicked video of this chick from last weekend. Hook me up!We sure do DarkShadows! And this one is a really easy fix! The MP4 file that windows media is producing is not actually a MP4 file format AT ALL! It is actually a 3GP file and if you simply rename your files extension from MP4 to 3GP it will work.That's all you have to do.No really, unless you want me to give you some busy work to go along with that! :)_TheEasyFixAdmiN_ Posted by Karl L.

Lets start with the basics please, and please be more detailed in future posts. 1. What recording software are you using? 2. Specifically, Can you please provide me with the URL of the video(s) you're trying to record and playback using quicktime? 3. What happens when you try playing back the recorded video with another media player (i.e. windows media player, flv player, real player, etc). We'll move forward accordingly based on your responses.
