Problems sending video from droid

I record videos on my droid then send from the gallery via gmail. Everyone I send it to is not able to open it including myself. It appears on the email when I receive it as a 3gp file. I open it with windows media and nothing plays.

3gp is the standard phone video format. You should be able to play it with WMP if you have the proper codecs installed.

I use VLC for ALL of my video needs. It's free, lightweight, and it always works.

you need a codec on your pc. google "k-lite codec pack" and install that or something similar and you'll be able to play it on your pc
