Hi,
I have downloaded a movie in MP4 format and while playing it on my Samsung Galaxy S, i can see the picture but there is no sound coming...
Picture quality for the file is very good no problem in it..only thing is sound is missing.
Is it some problem? Or some settings needs to be changed?
Seniors..plz advise.
Regards,
Anoop.
Remember that media volume is independent of ringer volume, so make sure you turn the media volume up.
I have run into a bug a few times where the sound on an mp4 won't play, but then I just exit the video player and try again and it works.
Otherwise, it may be the sound codec of the mp4 isn't compatible, although that is unlikely as the Galaxy S seems to support every major codec under the sun. Does the sound work on your computer?
I'm also unsure of if the Galaxy S is able to playback 5.1 encoded sound, so perhaps the sound is beyond the Galaxy S's playback capabilities. That would probably only be the case with a huge bitrate however.
Finally, you can always just encode the video into another format using a tool such as the excellent free Handbrake program (for Windows and OSX). Settings that work flawlessly for me are H264 .MP4 at 800 x 480 (the screen resolution of the Galaxy S, can crop videos if needed) with bitrates up to 2000kbps and AAC audio at 128kpbs, 48000hz stereo.
How the f.. a 1ghz Humingbird can beat a 1.6Ghz Intel atom??
I had the same problem with some 720p Mp4 video,
I also tried Rockplayer, but the playback freezes badly,
with the default Galaxy video player HD video is smooth, while on my intel atom netbook, HD is unwatchable..

Because the Hummingbird supports GPU hardware accelleration for H.264? ;D
Just grabbed myself a Galaxy S and im in the prosess of flashing official Froyo btw.
Best phone evah! (With lagfix)
Nice update now in Froyo,
I see my MP4 HD movies now have audio,
Well at least they did smth right..
The fact is Samsung can play most of MP4 files. Several special MP4 videos will not be played as MP4 is a container video format which may encode with a variety of codecs like H.264, MPEG-4, Xivd, DivX, MPEG-4 ASP etc. or with subtitles or multi-channels audio tracks. As MPEG-4 AVC H.264 codec, support is limited to the required specifications. If your MP4 files are using audio and video codec that Samsung Galaxy cannot support or your MP4 files cannot meet the supported specifications of audio and video codec, your Samsung Galaxy phones or tablets will fail to play MP4 files. Even you download different Android video player, they still fails to play.
In order to successfully play MP4 on Samsung Galaxy, a better solution is to convert MP4 to Samsung Galaxy supported MPEG-4 Video with require specifications. Google search TechiSky How to Play MP4 on Samsung Galaxy you will find the answer.
Try MX-Player
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?

I don't get very good performance with this player when streaming from a network drive. Personally I prefer VPlayer (search on the market)
My Samsung Galaxy s2 Stock Media Player dosent play ac3 Audi files or Mp4 FIles with Ac3 audio decoded. I was able to play those using Dice player or rockplayer.
The official Samsung Site or other specification says this (This is from Wikipedia)
For audio it supports (FLAC, WAV, Vorbis, MP3, AAC, AAC+, eAAC+, WMA, AMR-NB, AMR-WB, MID, AC3, XMF). For video formats and codecs it supports (MPEG-4, H.264, H.263, DivX HD/XviD, VC-1) and video formats (3GP (MPEG-4), WMV (ASF) as well as AVI (DivX)).
Issues:
1. Stock Media Player dosent play ac3 Audi files or Mp4 FIles with Ac3 audio decoded (Stock Media Player gives the Option 5.1 to be enabled but ac3 not playing)
2. Other players play it Under software decoding, But main Problem is 5.1 isn't working with Head phones
I googled and found some Users were able to Play it with stock media Players. Read something like "I dont have any problem playing those files, I just copy and play them"
Qqplayer is free and plays almost everything. works perfect for me.

Great app but it's no longer available on the market
Anyone know why the full version is now available and how to install the app having paid for it when it was available?
Free version shows
*** Currently can not purchase the full version because the checkout account is suspended.
This is the only video player I found that could playback 720p mkv through dnla on my Samsung Galaxy S. Here's my setup.
Samsung Galaxy S / Skifta / Diceplayer (Full purchased off the market in Nov 2011)
Server running Serviio dnla server
1080p stutters but I think that is down to the single core in the Galxy S. 720p smooooth.
I paid £3.35 in Nov for the full version of Diceplayer from the market but I now need to reistall since changing rom but can't download from the market?
I didn't backup my apps with titanium before doing the upgrade or I could restore app only.
Any ideas?
I have emailed the developer with my receipt but have received no reply.
cheers
for me RockPlayer Lite is the best deal out there. plays most of the formats.
no problems till now
Subsonic is a great way to stream multimedia content. The Android app allows audio and video playback. However, video playback seems to fail in our Galaxy Mini. As a matter of fact, the videolist does not display any videos, not even common DivX/XivD + MP3 codecs. Any idea about why? Any workarounds? I'm running default Android 2.3.4 install (Gingerbread) at the moment. No modded rom at all.
Greetings,
Hey guys,
Has anyone viewed movies with AC3 sound on the T815Y? I've had this model for a while now and watched a lot of movies on it, but I just recently noticed that I can't watch movies with AC3 sound. I have tried multiple players (VLC, MX player with custom codec), but with all it just freezes after a while. The strange part is that the whole movie freezes. Not just the sound. I also have a S6 edge plus and the same movies play great on it. Does anyone know if this is a problem with this model or if it is just me?
Thanks beforehand.
Try Archos with free codecs. It works flawlessly.
Get the all in one codec pack for MX. It's the best player on the play store hands down.

No issues whatsoever wirh Mxplayer on my Tab S, so the S2 shouldn't have any issues.
There is no better player than Mxplayer. I suggest you ensure you have HW+ hardware acceleration enabled.
