Excellent movie player

I just ran across ROCKPLAYER... for far it looks like an excellent movie player for the Samsung Epic 4g.... free version has some restrictions (but you can live with them).... paid version $9.99 removes the restrictions... am watching an avi movie now... sounds like it supports multiple formats... avi, mkv, etc.... just posting this for anyone who may be looking for a good movie player for their phone.

The stock player plays all those formats fine. Do you think there is a need for a player app?

Word,no need for another player,i tried a few and to me stock is the best.Maybe for wmv,rmb files and such rockplayer is usefull.Does stock play wmv?I havent tried it.Rockplyer is nice for phones that don't have native support.

Epic 4G natively supports a wide selection of codecs. Rockplayer uses its own for playback and doesn't run that well in a lot of situations. The stock player works perfectly for anything except MKVs, where it doesn't support subtitles. However, mVideoPlayer takes advantage of built-in codecs and supports subtitles flawlessly.

Stock player doesn't play flash video rock player I recommend this app its my favorite

i personally like act 1 the best.. ive tried mplayer and rockplayer.. they are all good.. i just stuck with act1

Yeah act one is next best to stock,stock got more stretching options and 5.1

mVideoPlayer and act1 destroy rockplayer hands down.

Mvideoplayer. (As long as your m4v is not drm stuff, it plays anything and very WELL)

mVideoPlayer only plays movies that your phone supports natively. So if the Epic can play m4vs, mVideoPlayer can.

[Q] Best Media Player for X1???

Anybody knows about a Media player which can be used as an alternative to the Windows Media player for PPC...
I have tried the TCPMP and Core Player...but both of them are having lags while playing videos...

Well, i think it's time to confirm that the built-in Windows Media Player is still the best Media Player for X1...

Well for music, PocketMusic is the best. Has a lot of options and customizability, and tons of equalizer effects to choose from and doesn't lag at all.
For video, Core Player is probably the best, however it doesn't lag for me at all so it depends on what version you're using. I'm using the latest btw.
Or, you can give SmartMovie player a try. Other than that, TCPMP is the other option which you've already tried.......so ya there aren't much you can choose from for Windows Mobile unfortunately.
Oh and if you want to play .avi videos then try Divx Mobile player too. But that sucks.

yes.... WMP is the best media player for ppc..

I tried all of them, but none of them can read MPEG2 video
I want to read MPEG2 video, any advise?

you can convert the vidio first to mp4 or to 3gp first with xilisoft or Super converter video... in desktop computer...

yes, but I would also like to do direct streaming from my dreambox to my Xperia, in this case the player should be already installed on the phone...

[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

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?

(app request) movie player

So basically I'm looking for the best possible solution here:
I have approx 20-30 movies on my tab all in mp4(mostly) used this format because I stream to my tv via apple tv now the proble is only some of these videos play on the tab so either I'm looking for a video player that can handle mp4 or a different format to utilze with apple and a corrosppnonding video player to use locally on the tab.
Players Iv tried with lil to no success
Mx player
Joe vlc
Archie(+ add-ons)
Mobo player
And various "easy mp4 players" in the market
I've attempted to move them from the sd to local memory and no affect on the outcome so I come to the brilliant minds of sds for a solution on.open to all suggestions at this point.
Plz excuse the various typos thru out post. Posting from my phone

Best Movie Player App?

Just wanting to know which movie player apps everyone is using on their Note 8. I have several movies on my phone and I usually use MX Player Pro or VLC player to play them but some of the movies I have, the audio does not play or sounds real low and squeaky. Maybe I'm missing audio codecs or something?

try Black Player EX ...

I've always used BS Player. Excellent for network drives and also you can offset the audio track, which is very useful for out of sync audio, which can sometimes happen with a Bluetooth headset or a bad rip

I didn't play too many movies but I don't remember even one that VLC wasn't able to play yet, so it's my player of choice. I know Samsung doesn't have AC3 sound codec included, so any player relying on internal codecs won't work with AC3, but VLC does. If you load the movie onto computer, you can find out what codecs it uses and maybe you can install those as separate package, but as I said IMO VLC is probably the best.

VLC is all you need. I use it on both my phone and computer. It plays everything you throw at it.

MX player. Recently VLC Player is good

When you hit the screen, while a video is playing, under the BS logo there is an arrow pointing to the right. Expand that and full screen is the last option
