[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

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?

Moboplayer

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?

[Q] how to watch hd videos? incompatibles?

Just try the MX video player codec (ARMv7) from the Android Market.

Best Video Player for Huawei X6 & FBO variants ??

Please recommend a video player + Version that we can play .mp4 with H264 codecs and .flv files on our FBO devices smoothly.
I believe we have ARMv7 type CPU... Ive tried a few players but most struggle with large .flv file size.
My devices and firmware are
1x WellcoM A99 (850 UMTS) running the awesome Bumble bee 101-3
1x WellcoM A99 (850 UMTS) running Stock 2.3.4 WellcoM Rom Rooted/unbloated
1x Cherry Mobile Magnum HD (900 UMTS) running Bumble bee 101-3
respect xda rules please, no links to warez

Download Mobo player from market.. Its free..
Set its setting and set it to default Soft decoding..
It is the best..
For Any video...

+1 to Mobo player .... its beast amongst the all

You where on to something here
Spent half the day installing uninstalling various players and their versions.
Mobo player lagged on .flv files
Rockplayer lagged on large .flv or couldnt use hardware encoding.
MX Player latest version kept giving me FC
then i read about MX Player v1.5 being stable and compatible for CM7 so i gave it a try... it works FLAWLESS!! and it even Hardware Encodes when it needs which none of the others did.
thx to those that recommended.

Tried Buzz Player ???

DL 1.3.0 now.... will give it a try!
nope still cant play this one file i have, its a 1080p 140mb MP4 .flv music video... i mean it plays but is laggy as hell.
BUZZ player is good, but still not as good as the MX Player v1.5
thanks tho

I use a combo of bsplayer lite and mx player. Best of all, they're both free! Grab em, on the play store. install the arm v7 codecs if you're having trouble playing files.

I like to use MX player. easy to navigate to fast foward, to increase/decrease volume while driving. hehe

Have You Tried QQPlayer??

Guy's Have you tried "Dice player" it's also very good player

I still recommend you Mobo player.. Don't use "Mobo Player Pro"..
Go to settings and set it to default "Soft Decoding"..
I myself played many .flv files of more than 1GB data......
Because I love watching movies on our device...

As we all got ICS update with new developer we have conclude again which is best Video player as above all are not working flawlessly over ICS.
I think BS player is good one ....

+1 bro.. ithinks MX Player 1.5 is still #1 for me when using CM7 bumblebee + the awesome ICS-Gingerbread theme loaded from the CM7 Theme Chooser app. And like what natsuke said just swipe up/down for volume so easy!
FYI i still keep trying new video players when you guys recommend them so keep the recommendations coming in if you find something
cheers

I tried the latest Vital Player Pro, and it wouldn't play some of my .flv music videos where the MX Player would. It wouldn't even hardware encode so its a fail from me

I tried this yesterday, the latest pro version 2.04... omg every .flv file i tried to play the screen went crazy with different colors and i couldnt see the video.
edit.. this only happened while using the ICS Codename Rom, once i put MacDragon Rom back on the App played all files nicely. It even switched to HW encode

bs player is good player..it performs better than rockplayer.those formats which are not supported by the stock player ar played with softwaredecoding.thats why at higher resulutions those players can not give good performance.i've tried h.264 hd file it only gives 20 to 21fps..but the mp4 version gives 31fps..only reason is hardware decoding instade of s/d..by the way rockplayer can play any format..

in which format you are playing? IF in 720p+ than its impossible to run HD videos in Ace phone properly cuz Ace's hardware doesn't contain 720p+ playback and neither a .flv videos codec.

Yes with stock video player, I have this issue. But, you can always play with a another player e.g. MX Video Player, it works flawlessly.

Mx Video Player also can`t play the audio file for some mkv files, only when using software decoding. I think it`s because the stock video player doesn`t know the audio codec used and doesn`t have support for software decoding. But yea, using an alternative video player should work.

BSPlayer free,does it with dts as well

Using DicePlayer atm, very good, audio plays, but sometimes the audio isnt correct and makes a high pitch sound, i'll try out the other players soon

It's not a "fresh" topic for playing mkv on Android device like this Xperia z no sound output. Some people have recommend a pile of video players like MX player, Dice player, etc and some others recommend to decode/encode the MKV files to a common video files like MP4 for easy playback. I think the no audio issues mainly depend on the DTS audio codec contained in MKV files, which is not easy to handle for most of the android devices. I'm the Xperia Z user, and have some other files like AVI, FLV, MPG and VOB files to Xperia Z for free playback on the go, so I choose to get a video convert tool to fast reformat these files to a Xperia Z favorable format that won't come up any problems. I found the way to put MKV videos to Xperia Z without any audio issue from Goolge.

Forget P.O.S. spyware apps like Brorsoft...
Avidemux, on the other hand, is brilliant.

bsplayer free did the trick for me

if you're using MX player , unmark the use hw decoding tick and you'll have sound
