I haven’t really tested this trick but for those who owe a iPhone and want to run Windows Media Player vidieos in your iPhone, I guess Tech Loaf has some nice trick for you.
Here’s what you do:
1) Set up an account with YouTube.
2) Once your account is set up, go to your account options and set up mobile uploading. They will give you a secret email address that only you use to upload your videos to YouTube.
3) On your iPhone, set up a contact called “YouTube.” Add the email address from step 2 to it.
4) Go back to your mail application. Open the email with the .wmv file. FORWARD that email to your new “YouTube” contact. Once it has sent, your email will be on YouTube.
5) Point your iPhone’s Safari browser to http://m.youtube.com. Sign into YouTube from that page. Scroll down to “My Videos.” Your .wmv video should be there. Click on it and it will open in Quicktime on the iPhone.
That’s it!
One more note: Once your video is uploaded, it may take anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours for it to be processed AND to be playable on an iPhone. Typically, it takes about 5 minutes.
