Can't play m4v files on Nexus 7

Doesn't matter whether the files are DRM protected or not...
Have searched the forums without finding anything. Any suggestions?

Have a look at handbrake and freemake. Both are good free video converters.

From the Wikipedia, you could find a lot about this M4V. M4V file format is a video container format developed by Apple and is very similar to the MP4 format. The primary difference is that M4V files may optionally be protected by DRM copy protection. So it can only play on your at itunes APP, if you want to play it on your Nexus 7, you should remove the DRM from the M4V at first with iTunes Movie DRM Removal tool and then play the DRM free video on your Nexus.

Yes, you can play iTunes videos on Nexus, but only if you have removed DRM protection from your iTunes videos. Recommended Requiem.

After studying online, I found iTunes M4V are combined with DRM protection, that is why you can't play iTunes videos on Nexus.

But you don't need to worry either. You can remove DRM from iTunes videos, then you will be able to transform iTunes M4V to Nexus for playback.
