I am looking for an ICS rom which has the capability of playing videos just like JVU does or any GB rom does with its default player. I tried many ICS roms but none can play videos like JVU does. Have I missed some ICS roms which can play videos efficiently? Usually I prefer to play videos which are directly downloaded and transferred to the phone. I never convert videos. JVU never ever lets me down. but I now I want to move on to ICS. but cant find a proper rom for my need. Can anyone suggest me? Thanks!!!!

Has anyone have lag with flash videos with GB both stock version or Overcome? Youtube videos are fine but I get very bad lag/stuttering with flash content videos on default web broswer and dolphin HD. I also have lag with going to gallery to looking at pictures and videos as well. It's not as smooth as my Galaxy S phone. I'm wondering if this just Gingerbread itself or if I have a faulty phone.
I do have the lastes flash 10.3 installed and I still get this lag/stutterying which is not present in my galaxy S phone.
Should I go back to Froyo 2.2 and see if I still have the same problem?
Oh, and I only get about 1000 quadrant score as well. I thought GB suppose to be alot better than froyo?
I've been searching and reading for quite a while and haven't seen any mention any where of getting the stock Samsung video player that will work with ICS4.0 rom.
I tried installing the stock Samsung Froyo 2.2 apk on my Galaxy S Captivate that has a ICS 4 rom installed but the install failed and I'm left with no video player at all....
I want the stock Samsung player because it is head and shoulders better than ALL other video players. It will play back 720p .mkv files with out a single hitch or glitch, super smooth and perfect, nothing else even comes close to it in performance...
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Won't work on ics. The framework is different. Try rock player
QQ player is pretty solid as well. It plays almost every format imaginable.
Did Samsung include a version for the Galaxy Nexus stock ICS? You could take a look there and extract it. See if that works.
Thanks for the suggestion of finding a stock ICS4 to check, I found one, but can't figure out how to extract the apk files from the system.img file ????
Here. I found a CWM zip for Galaxy Nexus and pulled the videos.apk. Hope this works for you.

Thank you very much for the file, the phone I was originally working on this on is gone to a new home, but I've got another one here I'm experimenting on too, just now researching the best path to follow to get it from i896 Rogers Canada stock 2.1update firmware to ICS with good video playback working....
thanks for the video.apk but it just show the available videos do not play them
If anyone else is following this at all, there IS a native video player in the current ICS I have loaded, but it isn't the same as the previous native players, its much worse. The video is smooth for HD MKV, but there is no sound, so obviously it uses hardware acceleration properly for video, but can't do hardware video acceleration and software audio decoding simultaneously like the excellent native player that was included with previous versions.
Is there any way to use the previous native player with ICS ? Can it be "converted" or anything like that ?
Thanks.

Hello guys ,
Last day i Noticed a very strange problem in SGN running on INdian Official Ics rom DDLP8.
A no of videos Mkv format which used to play perfectly fine in GB are not playing on ICS And show message "Video has stopped Responding."
To chk whether the prob was of the rom only i reloaded my sd card and chkd again but to no use ......and SAME RESILT.
Finally i rolled back to GB DDLC1 INU to chk whether GB played it fine or not and it played them superbly.
Wat shud i do ????
I WANNA remain on ICS coz of
1)Multiple account addition in Tak
2)Smooth ui of Gmail
3)SMOOTH TRANSITIONS of browser and overall Ui
4)Apex launcher
But dont wanna loose some of my fav videos .
Is there any way out ??? Thumbnails also are not visible in Videos >Folder view >Inside Many Folders
IS ANY ONE ELSE FACING SUCH PROBLEM ???? pls help
Since the ICS update for our Galaxy Notes is still a prototype and not the full OS they have not added the source code to play any video formats other than AVI, so for now your options,
Stay on GB
Convert your videos to AVI or download them in AVI
Or use this app called MX Player on ICS (not sure if this works).
But for now the stock video player on ICS cannot play any other format until another update.

+ 1 for mx player.....
I am using it.... No issues
Mkv format
Thanks for reply .... Its not the problem with all videos.
max mkv FORMAT videos are being played smoothly but 30% are giving "Video player stopped responding error "
If all wud have not played thn it was understandable but its ony FEW videos which give error and they play fine on Ginger Bread 2.3.6
Any ideas will this problem be eradicated in Next update of ICS.
I hope they work it out.
XDA pls find some solution ....... ONLY U PEOPLE CAN FIND WHY IS THIS HAPPENING ?????

Well as I said other source codes aren't added yet, only some MKV videos can be played maybe because of the the different encoding, but either ways it will be fixed soon but for now you can use MX player on ICS, have fun!!

Hey guys
I have recently rooted and flashed Semaphore ICS (4.0.4) on to my i9000. (this was such a hard task )
Anyways I followed the instructions; installed Google Apps etc.
However, only now, compared to the GB Music Player, is really really ugly and crappy?
Is there anyway to update this app or get the old one back?
I don't really want to use any other music player but will if i have to. I'm using Rocket Player as a substitute atm, but not really liking it...
On the GB gallery i was able to preview GIFS, now on the new OS, I cannot. Any fixes?
Thanks
I'm tired beyond hope to find a build of cm 10xx or any other builds that will support youtube videos in HD , could play movies without jittering in 720p or 1080p and have proper hmdi dock support , I would love to use it as a media center in my living room , so far I can get nowhere with CM... If videos play nicely YouTube wouldn't work , if YouTube and videos play beautifully then it wouldn't project properly through HDMI . I tried cm9 stable , cm 10.1 and recently cm10.2 so far the best Rom for my purpose is stock 2.3.6 which is way dated. Am I asking for too much and should move on ?
