hello everyone. i have just bought the nook colors and i have some question.
like i can see the nook have a problem for read vidéos, why? what is the answer to this problem? the problem can be solved?
thanks
What app are you using to watch videos and what format are the videos in? I found using Handbrake to convert videos to mp4 or mv4, iPod Touch format, works wonderfully with the stock reader.

I Try to Watch vidéo in mpeg4 ( divx ) format or mkv, Why it doesnt work?
what program are you trying to view it with, The only programs that can watch mkv are rock player and 1 other i cant remember what its called. To watch an mkv you need to make sure it is 480p otherwise it will studder out on the device
If you are trying to use the default software it will not work because it doesnt know how to read the mkv package
which program i need to use for watch avi vidéo ?
RockPlayer will also play avi files, but some people have reported some problems with the quality, like audio-video out of sync or stuttering.
It may be worthwhile to simply convert to video to mp4 using handbrake (the latest beta build works) and playing it with the built in player (simply called Video, I believe)
yes i heard something about the ’OMAP3621 who can managing the encoding, but this function is locked

So far I'm fine with Android but I still complain I playback video in Android doesn't work well. The problem is that in WinMO could perfectly reproduce videos in format AVI, resolution: 320 * 240 and FPS 18 but in Android can't do reproduce only recognized of all videos and movies that I have one that is in WMV, therefore transform a video that I had to that format while maintaining the same settings as in AVI and does not play well is unstable and closes only while playing and I tried moving some things in the converter of video formats and still did not play well.
My question is: is there any hack or something like that to make the playback of videos go better in Android or one player as CorePlayer it was that used in WinMO and had no problems with that AVI video format.
Greetings and I hope help me.

Convert them to MP4. You also might try yxplayer, which plays a lot of avi videos(not all though) for me although it's not free.

Thanks a lot! Transforming it to. mp4 and playing with yxplayer works well but I will have to transform everything again but the important thing is that it works.
Best regards.
I have had most success with arcmedia in the android market. It uses the FFMPEG codec library rather then the codecs built into android which means it plays more file types successfully then most others i have tried. It even has a stab at playing higher quality videos where you would normally only get sound in the standard player, but they still stutter a little.

The I installed it and I did not get worked perhaps I need to install the codecs FFMPEG you mention but equally no matter because with the yxplayer and transforming the videos to. mp4 goes me well.
Best regards.
you could try rockplayer. plays avi files. i do not remember where i found the apk but i guess it is on market.

Thanks for the recommendation but if you saw the answers the problem was solved transforming the videos to .mp4 and using the player YXPLayer, the player you mention does not work but I accept suggestions of other players who have best interface to YXPlayer.
are you saying rockplayer fails to play your original avis? (at least this is what i was recommending it for)

Does not play the videos that transforms .mp4 only showed audio.
Have tried RockPlayer Lite (won't play at all), RockPlayer Universal (Laggy and no subtitles), vxPlayer (Laggy and no subtitles), and mVideoPlayer (Laggy, but w Subtitles).
Anything that actually WORKS on the G-Tab?
Kind of assumed that with the Tegra 2 chip that playing these would be a breeze, but this seems to be one area where there's nothing out there yet.
TIA!
Try VitalPlayer it plays all format and subtitles, i have tried with mkv and srt subtitles and it worked.

Plays the mkv, but doesn't seem to have any option to pick an embedded subtitle from the MKV. Hidden option or not supported?
Just as an FYI, I installed the MKV Sub Extractor that the RockPlayer folks offer seperately in the market, and using that to create an SRT, I was then able to play the file with subtitles. It's still a little slow, but it seems to be smooth enough to watch (I gather it's dropping frames to stay in sync, but not enough to be too noticable).
Anyone who has tried ArcPlayer which I gather is also based on ffmpeg - does it work any better?

I have tried ArcPlayer, and was not impressed. I was of the opinion that Rock Player did a better job, and it could access /sdcard2
use the app above to get subtitle out. software decoding supports 800*480 by rockplayer(best of all )hard ware decoding supports up to 720p you can convert it very quickly view there please http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=924533 that's for h264 stream.xvid supports up to 1080p using hardware decoding
Ok. I know there are several video players at the market. But not sure which is the best on the SGT.
I have VLC player on several of my machines at work and at home. It has become my #1 media player. Also, I have videos in these formats:
Extension: .mp4
- -video codec: H264 - MPEG 4 AVC (avc1) 480x192 @ 24 fps
- -audio codec: MPEG AAC (mp4a) 48khz
Extension: .ogv
- -video codec: Xiph.org Theora (theo) 1280x544 @ 24 fps
- -audio codec: Vorbis Audio (vorb) 48khz
I need a player that supports those video formats as well as others like xvid, .mov & .avi
I really want VLC Player on my tab but I guess it doesnt exist. So whats my alternatives?

I am using vplayer. But no matter which one you use, you will hear a faint humming sound in the headphones. I thought the problem was with vplayer but I noticed it in other players too except the stock player which has some cool features like bookmark and lock screen which others don't have.
Vplayer for streaming via tversity and upnp. Stock player is good but is very picky

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions. I will try both mplayer and vplayer.
Well I read the VLC discussion forums and it seems that the developers are working hard but are still a long way from a release. By the looks of it perhaps by May or June we could have a stable VLC Player version at Android Market.

Video Player help???
Hey guys,
I have a Spring Galaxy Tab. I have it rooted and everything. I've been trying to find a all in one video player but none of them seems to be working correctly. I have several movies and videos I converted to watch on my EVO or my Zune HD, but now that I have my tab, I would like use them there too. All the videos are in Mp4 format with either a 320x240 res 600x480 (forget what the numbers are but its the level above 320x240).
Vplayer - starts up and immediately shouts down. The the icon changes and is grayed out with a little memory card icon on it. Then I have to uninstall it.
Divx Demo Player (Rock player with extras) - and it wont play anything. But it plays any format of video or movie on my Evo.
Rock Player - I have the new version from the site and it wont play anything
Seems like nothing is working.. Most times it gives a error saying the video formats are not supported. But I have all these video player on my Evo (Which I know is a completely different device) but I'm wondering if my TAB needs video codecs or something?
Any ideas?
Moboplayer
How about the stock video player of ginegerbird version,(with media striaght fight =false)?
Have u try? the stock one play mp4 avi mkv without problem except rmvb.

I will try Moboplayer. I'm still running the stock rom. Havnet tried to update to Gingerbread yet. Didnt think any of the roms would work since they are not based on the Sprint Tab.
I think I know what's wrong
Still getting the same errors on my movies. I converted them with iSkysoft Media Coverter for Mac.
Some of the movies I used the iPhone 4 profile.:H.264, 960x640 res, 30fps, 1500kbps birate.
And some using the iPod Touch mp4 profile: mp4 video codec, 640x480 res, 30fps, 2500kbps bitrate.
So now I see why they arent working, although both of those profiles work for the Evo and Zune HD,.
What is the complete best video format, res,frame etc... for the Sprint Galaxy Tab?
Anyone know of a good app for Honeycomb that will play various video file types including .mkv? I have tried QQplayer and Vplayer but the its real buggy on the xoom. Thoughts?

There are threads all over the general section on this issue. No application will play a high profile MKV on the Xoom. The native video player can play MKV files but it has to be baseline encoded. You will need to use an application like Handbrake to convert the HD video using the universal preset available on the application.
http://handbrake.fr
I haven't used it yet for Mkv but rockplayer is a great app I use to play avi files.
I've been using the full version of xvid4psp to recode x264 mkvs. Technically you can just copy the video and convert the audio to aac and push into a mp4 container, but my Xoom wasn't able to handle 1280x538 or whatever a 2.4AR movie is. I converted it to 1024x430 and was still laggy when playing with Act 1. It only takes my notebook about 2.5 hours to re-encode a movie that way so I'll probably stick with 848x352 or 848x480. Though I fear that might make it lag at full 16:9 480p so I might have to look at different profiles to make it less complex of an encode.
OK, I've read every thread I can find on XDA on the subject, and it appears that the LG phones have a GPU-optimized video player, but otherwise there is nothing out there that really takes advantage of the Tegra 2 for playback of MKV files. Is that correct?
Most of my files are 720 or 1080 MKV with embedded subtitles. So far the best response I have gotten has been from QQplayer. I tried Moboplayer with the ARM7 codec it sends you to, but could never convince it to show the subtitles.
So what are YOU using to play such files (if anything)? Please also share your settings in case the problem is user error at my end
TIA!
I use PLEX to stream my 720p and 1080p mkv files.
If I need to stored the files on the xoom, i normally convert them to mp4 format using HandBrake.
i havent found a good mkv player for the xoom yet.. i am a VLC kinda guy on my PC and i havent found anything that compares to it...
I use xilisoft ultimate to convert to mp4 for native playback on the xoom
If you haven't bought Plex you have no idea what its like to play MKVs on your device
Plex provides better quality and performance than any other app.
I use Plex but the quality is not the same as if I play the same video (4GB 720p MKV) on the PC.
But one thing is sure, gets the job DONE.

I have found that 3.1 actually does contain enough matroska container parsing (Probably due to WebM) to play any MKV files that would normally play when re-muxed to MP4 however the mimetype and file extension don't appear to be plumbed in. So as long as the audio is AAC or MP3, the video is h.264 and the bitrate/profile/resolution is ok to play then simply renaming the file to add on .mp4 (so the native video player doesn't object to the filename) then launching the video file from a file manager and just choosing "Video player" plays just fine.
Plex is a streamer, we need a local player that's better then Mobo or Rockplayer.
Plex is awesome, but it still won't the display .srt subtitles. I've tried RockPlayer, but it won't play everything.

I tried this in 3.01 and it didn't work but I'll give it a go on 3.1. If this works...!!
I started with rockplayer but then I moved to Vplayer.
Vplayer is awesome all the mkv files with subtitles that rockplayer couldn't handle, vplayer played it like a champ.
Plus i use remote potato to stream my stuff from my home PC and vplayer has been the only player to handle the task.
I still do Moboplayer it works for everything I need. When the MKV files I have don't show the subs I back out and long hold on the file and select Soft Decode which always kicks the subs in for me. Try that and see if it works for you.
Is my Xoom the only one that stutters when it's playing 720P movie on either MoboPlayer or RockPlayer?
I have not found any player that can play mkv file perfectly!
Yesterday, i tested with 1 mkv file, 720p, ac3 audio, size=1.5 Gb, both rockplayer and moboplayer could play that movie very smooth and showed subtitle correctly, but there was no sound!
When i switched to "software decode" mode, sound was fine, but video was very laggy!
Unfortunately none of the players allow mixed mode rendering, as hardware for the video is a go, but there is no hardware (or OS level) support for AC3 audio. Honestly, Android still has a ways to go as far as video codec and container support is concerned.
Just got a Xoom yesterday and have tried about 10 different players...
BS Player was the ONLY one that worked well.

+1 DicePlayer is awesome and it supports HW Acceleration
Nobody uses MX Video Player? Found it last year when I wanted to play some anime on my Evo 3D, worked like a charm, and has a separate plugin for device-specific support. Works flawlessly using software decoding, only played 480p videos so far though, supposedly works perfectly using hardware decoding on 720/1080 videos, somebody give it a shot and lemme know
I use Mx Video Player its got best interface and plays most videos and h/w support for 720p videos 1080 is pushing to the limits for Xoom.
