[Closed] Treat .3gp file extension as if it was .mp4

[vaivel]

Things are drifting these days, first it was away from .avi to .mp4, and lately .3gp. As I can understand, .mp4 and .3gp are not necessarily identical, I at least have succeeded in having my A300 play at least one file by merely renaming it from .3gp. So the request is just to treat .3gp files as were they .mp4. (This of course goes for the 100's and 200's series as well, but since I had to pick, it ended here).

Feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

Run the file through MediaInfo, you should find that it is actually an mp4 file. It was an April Fools joke to release them as 3gp! LOL

I did, but in lack of a 'real' .3gp file, they just came out as 'MPEG-4 (Base media)', but since I could read that 3gp is partly MPEG-4, not easy to guess.

I guess the joke was/is on me then.
