I'm trying to transfer some AVI video files to the data card on a BB Pearl. I can see the files but when I attempt to play it says "an error has occurred attempting to play media". Do I need to change the file format from AVI and if so, how do i do that?

I have the same problem

I know someone who can solve this problem
