Use JetAudio to convert the file to be able to play it on the S9.

well i tried http://www.videohelp.com/tools/Quick_Media_Converter
which is free and suposedly converts most video formats....
these are the video specs im trying to get to play on the s9 WITHOUT too much hassle:
Format : MPEG-4
Format_Profile : Base Media
CodecID : isom
OverallBitRate/String : 600 Kbps

my aim is to be able to play podcasts which i tought were natively supported by the s9 (.mp4)
but things are looking a little diffrent at the moment.......!?!?!?!?!?!

Edit: also the supplied cowon software can only convert one file at a time which is a pain.... and i dont perticularly enjoy wasting time reformating stuff !!!

I dont know about S9s video specs, but I second Omjermys post and suggest you to try Jetaudio. It got pre loaded settings to fit most cowon players so its very easy.
