These are the files types which can be uploaded into a Hippotizer for playback.
Further Info: The Hippotizer supports nearly all of the media formats that can be played by windows media player; however some formats perform better than others.
The preferred format for all Hippotizer’s is MPEG2 or MPEG2 I-Frame which is a very commonly found format. QuickTime can also be played back on the system, as long as the codec is supported for PCs.

Accepted media formats include:

AVI,MPEG1,MPEG2,MPEG4,DivX,Quicktime,ASF,WMV,DV

Still image formats include: JPG,BMP,PNG,TIFF,TGA. References For more info on playing back media files in windows media player refer to; http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;316992&sd=tech

The rule when encoding media on Hippotizer is, if it plays in Windows Media Player the codec is already loaded onto the Hippotizer.

If the clip does not play, you can use GSPOT to detect the codec needed. By using the Help option, GSPOT should help you find where to download the correct codec.

You can download the GSPOT application using the following link: http://www.green-hippo.com/support/index.php?_m=downloads&_a=viewdownload&downloaditemid=29&nav=0.
