Description

if you create a Photo Gallery and export it, the mp4 file will correctly be created and it is valid, but if you hit "play" it will launch in the stock video player app and say "cannot play video". I suspect this is a codec issue.

Short term fix: have testers install VLC and use that to play exported video locally

quote steve:

Brian said to try it with shooting with a lower resolution images with the camera
so if you shoot 5megapixel images with the camera or below, Brian said that will do the same thing for you as you described with the miro

The issue was if a video is > 1080p resolution, the stock player died. we limited max size to 1080p
