DVD and video on SD card working

[chanlon1]

I've had difficulty trying to read on here what formats etc of video would work.
No doubt there is a thread out there detailing all....alas I didn't see it.

Anyway, on my 2017 S5, popping a DVD (Home Alone ) into the drive and the movie ran fine including all the chapter options etc.

I also copied an m4v and mp4 video file onto a SD card, and both these formats ran okay.

On all occasions (DVD and SD Card) it gave options to alter the picture format.

My 2017 A5 refuses to play video files in MP4 format that played perfectly well on my 2013 A6.
To be precise, it's not that she refuses to play them, she doesn't even acknowledge their presence on the SD card.

When I have time (can be bothered ) I'll try some different files.
