Help PC companion (adding videos to phone)

Hey all,

Wondering if you can help me out. I use a go pro HD 3 camera for some sports I do. I then put the videos from the go pro onto my PC. All good so far, I then used to use "doubletwist" to put the videos on my phone but the quality was always s*** when I done this.

So iv decided to give PC companion a go. It has worked perfectly for the 3 shortest videos I have, they are only about 30 secs long each, tops. But for some reason when all the other videos are transferred my xperia z will not play them. Iv tryed deleting them and putting them on again about 5 times now to no avail. Can someone help me out here please? Why will it work for some videos and wont for others???????

Thanks in advance for all help.

Jason
 
I suspect it's due to the length. I couldn't get it to work with hour-long tv recordings, but it worked with shorter programmes recorded identically.

In the end I gave up and used MediaCoder to transcode the files.

Thanks for the reply. When I say the longer videos wont work however I mean they are still only 5 mins ish long... The ones that have worked were only 20 seconds ish.... This is really annoying me :(
