Play M4V on Android Tablet with M4V Player or M4V Converter

This article gives you two ways to play M4V on Android OS-based tablet with the best visual and audio effect: M4V Player for Android and M4V Converter for Android.

Nowadays, with the development of android, more and more people are using Android phone or tablet. But these devices aren't compatible with many format videos such as M4V. M4V is a format that created by Apple and protected by DRM. Due to the protection, this file format is not compatible with Android system. When I surf on the Internet, I have found that many people asked many problems about playing M4V files; here is one of the questions lifted on Android Forums:

"I am searching for a video player app that can play m4v files. I am an apple product fan and use an iPhone for this currently and have wanted to switch over to android. But as far as I can tell there are no video player apps that do this. Dose anyone know of an app that can do this?"

Many people reply to the thread, and according to these replies, I sort out two ways for you to solve the problem.

The First Way: M4V Player for Android

One person recommended the MX Player. He said that the MX video player can play everything. I Google it and find MX Video Player is a free app for Android device that allows you to play videos on your phone.

This app enables you to play most video files and subtitle files with multi-core decoding capability. MX Video Player is the first Android video player performs multi-core decoding. It supports multiple movie files like 3GP, Divx, F4V, MP4, MPEG, MOV, M4V(have removed DRM protection) and VOB.

The Second Way: M4V Converter for Android

The second way is convert M4V to Android tablet supported format. If you want to play M4V format videos on Android tablets and avoid some unnecessary troubles, the M4V to Android tablet converter can aim your goal. It can meet all your needs with its powerful function; it can convert all videos like AVI, MKV, MP4, WMV, MOV, M4V. Let's begin with the detailed introduction about converting M4V files to Android OS-based tablet supported format.

First, free download Pavtube M4V to Android tablet converter and install in your computer. It only take up a little space in your computer.

Then, add the M4V files or videos in the M4V to android converter. Do this by clicking the "Add File" icon.

The following, this is an important step that you need choose a right output format. It is the key to solve playback problem, you can choose MP4, it is the best compatible format for Android.

In the "Edit" you can edit your videos by trimming, cropping, adding Watermarket and subtitle.

The last step is clicking the convert button to start this conversion. Then a little time later, you can copy to Android devices for playback.

Note: The precondition of these two ways of playing M4V video is that you've removed the DRM protection of iTunes videos. If you want to convert the M4V videos protected by DRM, ChewTune (Review) is such a DRM removal tool legally strips DRM copy protection from Digital Copy, WMV, and M4V.

If you are interested in this M4V to Android tablet convert, you can have a try.
