The best player

Which is the best player to watch movies with lots of codecs?

unfortunately we are out of luck...
i have yet to find a player that will play divx .avi files right off the bat.
the work around (that probably works 100% of the time) is converting your video to another format...
never tried it though.

So maybe u can recommend player which u use?

There's an app called xyflash or something similar which will play DivX files but not particularly well yet, still needs optimization.
I'd strongly recommend converting on your PC using DoubleTwist or Handbrake and use the inbuilt video player or Meridian which is an mp3 player which also plays videos but keep in mind that almost every video player available on android at the moment just sits ontop of the inbuilt video player.

Codec or player to play iPod Touch Movies

Hi Guys,
Have try several applications but can't find a player that can play the iPod Touchmovies. Some movies are converted for iPod Touch MP4 extention.
I do not want convert them back before can put the movie on my Hero.
Is there anybody who know a player of is there somebody who is building one?
(SORRY guys... i found een shortname for iPod Touch haha iTouch)

The hell's an iTouch?

you mean an ipod touch maybe?
if its a h.264 mp4 then the video player applicaion by jeff hamilton will play them fine as long as they are near 320x480 resolution

The "native" video format (if such a thing exists) is precisely the same as the iPod Touch/iPhones video. Extension can be either MP4, or M4V.
I regularly convert movies to MP4/M4V with Handbrake using the default settings for iPod Touch/iPhone.
Regards,
Dave

meridian
meridian player works fine with mp4 in my case.

personally i just use a file manager like astro or linda and use it to find my video files..it plays the video files fine without any additional apps!

FLV Player

Hi guy's im looking for a FLV player, or better yet a FLV to mp4 converter for my kaiser. I could just as easily convert the flv files on my pc, but im using you tube play and from time to time i find myself downloading the videos as flv's, i cant blue tooth these files to anyone else because of the file format, but having a converter on my kaiser to convert the files there on the spot would be great and then i could just play them in windows media player and share them easily,i had tried using TCMP and installed the plugins all of them, and still no go with getting them to play, they can play fine in you tube player but you cant forward or go back just pause and play and of course stop, im sure this has quite possibly been asked lots of time's but i cant find the answer. so any help would be greatly appreciated

FLV player

Any solutions? Thanks!

FLV Player...
Core Player can handle most of the *.flv files , but there is a *flv files with different codec which it can`t... I don`t remember the codec name though...

thanks

I think Youtubeplay also allows you to search videos in a nice friendly Windows Mobile application and then play the full FLV video ( not miniscule MPEG4 versions ) with its own player. This application is written in the mix. net and C so you need a runtime. net, v2. Overlay video player hacked out of TCPMP and FLV part is based on FFMPEG

i have a solution
convert the video by any video converter to flv or mpeg but you have to select the right video size ( 320 x 240 )

Watching HD Video

I know a lot of ppl use rock player but it was choppy on a lot of videos I was trying to watch
so I looked for a new player and found mvideoplayer and played a 720p 1.38gb mkv file and it played super smooth
just thought I'd let ppl know

Just tried it out. It wont play ac3 sound on my mkvs.

i have a few players installed and mvideoplayer is one of them. i also have rock player installed because there are certain files that mvideoplayer will not play, but rock player does. also i'm guessing that 720p mkv file you played was not encoded in High profile because otherwise it would not be smooth.

[Q] What's the best video player for the tab?

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
Oh and vlc for android is due very soon
Here's the git..

M video seems the best! I love the swipe action to fast forward or rewind
The back ground noise is from the Tab its self, simlar error on the i9000, use a new kernel with voodoo sound and should/will solve ya problem

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?

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?
