Thanks for your reply.
I don’t think it is a problem with the .mp4 files as they have played ok previously.
I can copy files from the iXpand app to My Downloads and they play perfectly well from there but I guess this uses the ipad native app to play the video.
There is no DRM protection or anything like that on the files so it’s not that.
Everything else seems to be ok. photos display ok, music plays and text file docx, pdf etc display ok it is just the video files that do not play.
I also had a .MOV file from a camera on the iXpand and I copied over a .divx file as well but nothing plays.
When you click on a video file to play the it looks as if it is starting but the screen remains blank and nothing happens.
I don’t use dropbox but I could email you a short mp4 file if you give me your email address.
This has happened at a bad time as we are taking a plane trip next week and intended to use the ipad then.
Looks like I will need to just copy a couple of files at a time using My Downloads and do it that way.
