Some users reported that shooting with a Canon EOS camera is just perfect but it is a pain while importing and play Canon MOV on Android:

"I have a Canon S100 camera that automatically records movies with H.264 compression and .mov format. AFAIK, this format cannot be changed in the camera.

My Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus tablet with Android, meanwhile, refuses to detect movies in .mov format on my camera."

So, any possible solution? Don't be frustrated. In this article, we present a practical way.

The basic reason why we can't get Android table or Android phone to work with Canon MOV videos is that the H.264 encoded MOV files from Canon 80D, Canon 60D, 10D, 7D, 70D, 6D, T5i/T4i/T3i/T2i, 5D Mark III/IV are not acceptable by Android. Since Android device prefers H.264 MP4 format, the easy workaround supplied here is to use a 3rd-party software to convert Canon MOV to H.264 MP4 for Android.
