How Nook's video capability? 720 RMVB? MP4?

I am wondering how good the Nook's video capability. It seems there is no powerful display adaper driver for it?
How about 720p video support?
Thanks
720p is probably out of the nook's hardware capabilities.
Also I believe CM7 and HC are currently without hardware acceleration. Best bet is probably Froyo, but haven't tried it.
Moboplay works well for 720p rmvb. i just used real file tested
what rom you on?
i only attempted streaming with gmote from my desktop over wifi, and regular xvid avi's were pretty choppy. (running cm7)

Your NOOkcolor supports the following video file formats: 3gp, 3g2, mp4, m4v; MPEG-4 Simple Profile up to 854x480; H.263 up to 352x288; H.264 Baseline profile up to 854x480
Your NOOKcolor will not support the following video file formats: Flash (Flv/swf); Mov/qt; AVI; MKV; Xvid/divx; WMV / VC-1; H.264 Main and High profile; and videos with a resolution higher than 854x480
So far for me, 854x480 h.264 has provided the best results, mpeg4 has more compression artifacts. There's a profile posted on here somewhere for handbrake to convert to the proper format. VLC convert and stream also transcodes to h.264 if you want to stream from a media server or PC without having to convert the files.
For it to work properly with hardware acceleration, I think only android 2.1 (stock/rooted) and 2.2 have full support.

Uh if there's audio sync issues . . . how exactly is it playing videos "perfectly" ???
As has been described already, MP4 videos encoded using H.264 baseline at a resolution at or below 854x480 work well in the stock player. Beyond that, 3rd party video players aren't performing well enough for me to accept as "perfect".
I've tried Rockplayer, Vital Player and VPlayer and none of them play raw AVI files (xvid) that I watch from EZTV to my satisfaction. The only thing that works for me is to re-encode them using Handbrake and the Handbrake preset that's available in this forum with a constant quality setting of 22.

The video part of the video plays fine. The audio part of the video does not.

Don't misunderstand me, I've done my own testing. The point I'm making is if people read such statements and then try to watch videos they'll be disappointed in the fact that there are indeed sync issues.
I'd never describe the playback of a video file with audio sync issues as "perfect". IMO the only way playback would qualify as perfect is if there are no dropped frames and no audio sync issues. That's not the case in any of the solutions i've read on these forums when it comes to AVI or MKV playback.

Nook Color's video player performance is underwhelming at the moment in regards to 720p playback. I'm no sure how the Archos 70 could play it just fine.

Okay, just to clarify concerning 720p.
Nook Color has a single-core 800mhz processor.
I have found that a single-core 1.4ghz processor is very marginal for 720p - most don't work, even with the most CPU-efficient software decoding ("core").
Generally 1.6-1.8ghz is the minimum required.
So, the only remaining question is whether the graphics chipset will actually support 720p hardware acceleration through a change in the software:
PowerVR's SGX series features pixel, vertex, and geometry shader hardware, supporting OpenGL 2.0 and DirectX 10.1 Shader Model 4.1.
The SGX GPU core is included in several popular systems-on-chips (SoC) used in many portable devices. Apple uses the A4 (manufactured by Samsung) in their iPhone 4, iPad, iPod touch, and Apple TV. Texas Instruments' OMAP 3 and 4 series SoC's are used in the Nokia N900, Sony Ericsson Vivaz, Motorola Droid/Milestone, Archos 70, and others. Samsung produces the Hummingbird SoC and use it in their Galaxy S, Galaxy Tab, Samsung Wave S8500 and Samsung Wave II S8530 devices.
Intel uses the SGX 535 as its GMA 500 and GMA 600 integrated graphics for their Atom platform.

Are there manual settings that I can program into Baddaboom? I use that for video encoding as it supports CUDA on my graphics card reducing encode times up to 70% at times.
FWIW "Saving Private Ryan" as both an avi and mp4 have played just fine on my rooted NC (Rockplayer).

In handbrake, the iPod/iPhone profiles produce video files which work fine on the NC (up to 854x480). So if Baddaboom has profiles for those devices, give those a shot. If you want try to tweak the settings manually, the magic configuration in handbrake is:
Set max B-frames to zero
Turn off CABAC entropy coding
Turn off 8x8 transform
Turn off weighted P-frames
In my experience vitalplayer neon plays movies better that rock player.

THANK YOU for that! I've been using rockplayer and having a couple different problems which put me trying different encoding methods last night (different sizes/audio settings, etc, etc.)
Rockplayer is simply inferior to the V7 "Neon" version of MoboPlayer. Very excited about this software find! Thanks!
On the 720p resolution thing:
The Nook's display is 1024x600. 720p video is 1280x720. Playing 720p format videos is overkill. You can convert it down to a smaller size (working on the "best" settings right now in my "Things I Learned" thread.)
Apparently the hardware accelleration only works on up to 854X480 MAX. Anything less than this is scaled up/down to that before run through a hardware scaling up to fullscreen (1024x600).
I find for software playing (for now) 854 width is doable, but 720 width (480p) is nearly the same quality. I'm still playing with the settings, and with the discovery of MoboPlayer, I'm redoing research. I'll be updating my thread with the "best" settings the software player can handle (max 1ghz cpu overclock). Since I'm using a max of 858x480, it should play with hardware accel flawlessly once that is working on CM7 (already works on 2.1/2.2?).
Love this platform.

Video/ sound sync probs

Audio is not properly synced to video much of the time. It was bad on rooted stock but still problematic on nookie froyo.
What is the reason for this? Is there a fix?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Not sure what video you're referring to but suffice it to say that for optimum quality of video file playback re-encode your video to a format that the hardware acceleration of the nook supports by default.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=894165&highlight=handbrake+preset
My recommendation is to re-encode using Handbrake with the preset posted in the first post in that thread. The only other change I'd suggest to that preset is to change the video setting to constant quality at a setting of 22 (or 20 if the format of the original file is smaller than 720 pixels wide).
Video playback questions pop up almost every other day on this forum and it always ends up being a debate about what works and what doesnt. Much of the time the difference is basically subjective opinion on what is acceptable playback quality. Some are satisfied with some audio lag when playing back avi or other format files using 3rd party software. Others demand no dropped frames and perfect audio sync which is where your best bet is re-encoding to MP4 in H.264 baseline.

[Q] LG P990 Video Problem

Hello Community,
so I gat the following problem:
The phone should show and record 1080p and 720p videos. No problem with recording, but I gat a problem with playing a video. Every 1280x720 / 1680x1050 / 1920x1080 video is constantly laggy, but the sound works perfect.
640x360 videos are working perfect, no matter what codec.
The sample videos in 1920x1080 are working perfect, so I think it's a problem with the codecs, but all videos are H264, so what's the problem here?
I hope you can help me!
Thanks,
Max
ps: found no topic about that thing, I hope it's not already existing!
I think tegra 2 doesn't support it (yet?)
Sent from my Optimus 2X using XDA Premium App
aren't they in mkv container? if that's the case, then it's normal... no mkv support yet
sorry but you both failed at my answer.
The LG P990 does support 1920x1080! As I mentioned above the sample videos are working perfectly, but other videos in 1920x1080 are laggy , even when it's the same codec, so what's the problem here?
what do you mean with mkv container?
For all who have the same problem:
I gat the answer now:
The H264 Profile of the video files must be baseline, otherwise your video will lag
You can convert to h264 baseline for example with the program SUPER
Regards,
Max
the problem is the encoding profiles used to create the videos you try to play
You dont mention where these videos come from or if you encoded them yourselves, but video are much more than just the codec.
When videos are encoded there are many different encoding settings that can be used, settings like bitrate, resolution, macroblocks, cabac, reference frames, b-frames, etc. etc. - for H264 these different settings is arranged into something called profiles and levels. Levels go from 1 up to 5.1 and profiles is called baseline, main and high
Each level and profile describe the set of encoding settings that can be used.
Read more details here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264/MPEG-4_AVC
Different types of content for playback on different kinds of units allows different profiles and levels, like HDTV specifies a maximum profile level to be used and Bluray another maximum profile level to be used. The idea is then that manufacturers of Bluray hardware decoders design their hardware codecs to support up to the maximum profile level for Bluray (which is High L4.1)and the content creators can encode their Bluray videos to the same specifications and thereby ensure that the content can be played on Bluray players.
The Tegra2 chipset support recording and playback of content up to 1080p, but that is only a specification of the resolution - you also have to know which maximum profile levels of encoding specifications it support before you can encode video properly for the Tegra2 chipset. And since it isnt designed for Bluray but for mobile use, it doesnt support the same high encoding specifications as Bluray but only a lower profile level.
The maximum supported profile level for the Tegra2 is 1080p Baseline L4.0 or 720p Baseline L3.1
If you download pirated HD movies, then most of these are encoded with similar or even higher specifications as Bluray movies - these will not play on a Tegra2 chipset.
And if you encode yourself, then you have to ensure that the settings you choose in the encoding application does not exceed the specifications supported by the Tegra2 chipset.
In short - if you download movies you can never be sure it will play because you have no control of how it was encoded. If you want to make sure videos will play, you have to encode them yourself and make sure to use the correct settings.
The videos you have that doesnt play right, will have to be reencoded with correct settings to play.
Edit: I see you found an answer while I was writing this
thanks for the answer
just something to add: The baseline things just getting important when the resolution is higher than 640x480 , my LG P990 can display all videos with all codecs and baselines with 640x480 but 1920x1080 for example will lag So these films are not a problem, because mostly they are 640x480 for mobile phones and not higher, that your Card isn't full with 2 vids
so what program would be best to convert a video to, as stated above :-
The maximum supported profile level for the Tegra2 is 1080p Baseline L4.0 or 720p Baseline L3.1
I normally use Total video Converter but cant find any of the L4.0 ect setting on it.

[Q] How to play most HD videos (720p/1080) Galaxy tab?

Hi,
I am trying to find out following:
I would like to use Galaxy Tab 8.9 (7300/stock HoneyComb 3.1) to play video on my HDTV (Full HD via HDMI adapter). However almost all the apps that I have tested seem to produce dropped frames or problems with sync with audio/video during playback for number of mkv/mp4/avi media files I have tested. I was able to play normally some of the full HD videos but that was in only few cases while most of 720p/1080p would have poor playback. So I am looking for an advice:
1) Will updating to ICS (now only custom roms available) help with video playback?
2) Are there any apps that you found that can play most of full hd videos? I have tried almost all the popular ones but could not get to cover full HD?
3) Will overclocking help with decoding? I saw several posts that indicate that some custom roms support overclocking. In some cases I got SW based playback to give almost good playback (HW based decoding did not work in all cases).
4) What is proper approach for mounting external drives that are in formats such as NTFS/exFAT? I am looking at this as some files might be bigger then 4GB limit of FAT32.
5) Is there a device that I can stream to 1080p from Galaxy Tab 8.9? Of course assuming that Galaxy Tab 8.9 can stream 1080p...
6) Do you have any other advice?
7) There are number of custom ROMs available (as listed in http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1441). Which one would you recommend for best video performance?
Kind regards,
Bo
Just got a Tab 8.9 and really struggling with this as well so keen to hear responses.
1) Will updating to ICS (now only custom roms available) help with video playback?
The GTab8.9 is Tegra 2 powered and will always struggle with HD playback, regardless of ROM or player. Good video player apps, I like MXPlayer, can mitigate it a little.
2) Are there any apps that you found that can play most of full hd videos? I have tried almost all the popular ones but could not get to cover full HD?
I like MX Player, but Vplayer is solid, but costs money. You will not find one that can play all 720p videos smoothly, and forget about an 1080p videos. Unless the bitrate is so low as to basically be low def, it won't happen.
3) Will overclocking help with decoding? I saw several posts that indicate that some custom roms support overclocking. In some cases I got SW based playback to give almost good playback (HW based decoding did not work in all cases).
Maybe a little, not worth it IMO.
4) What is proper approach for mounting external drives that are in formats such as NTFS/exFAT? I am looking at this as some files might be bigger then 4GB limit of FAT32.
I'm not sure on this, I will defer to others.
5) Is there a device that I can stream to 1080p from Galaxy Tab 8.9? Of course assuming that Galaxy Tab 8.9 can stream 1080p...
The GTab8.9 will struggle to play most 720p, forget about any 1080p.
6) Do you have any other advice?
I like the GTab 8.9 for its size, but a media power house it is not. If you want to play all manner of HD videos, then you're going to need a tablet with a Tegra 3 or better. Perhaps the upcoming Kindle Fire HD 8.9 or Nook+ HD 9, with their OMAP4470/SGX544s, will handle better and keep the smaller size.
7) There are number of custom ROMs available (as listed in http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1441). Which one would you recommend for best video performance?
I have not tried any custom roms myself yet. The video playback is a hardware limitation and a known weak point of the Tegra 2 SoC. Roms and players can attempt to mitigate it, but its not possible to resolve it.

The BS player gave me the best playback but not always smooth on 720p. Thanks for the info.... Great news....
2) In MX Player, turn on H/W+ mode in Settings>Decoding. This plays back 720p video (with a tiny audio lag) on stock Honeycomb 3.2. It's not going to do much to help you with 1080p though -- it's probable that nothing will.
you can run 720p or 1080p fluid.. spawndk from the eepad transformer forum:
"The Tegra2 chipset are designed as a mobile sollution chipset - to support web 2 standards. The highest encoding profile used here (Youtube 1080p) are 1080p baseline and this the Tegra2 chipset will both record and play with no troubles. As well as 720p baseline and main profile - but only upto L3.1 with some limitations. It doesnt matter which container is used (mkv, mp4, m4v, avi etc) and it doesnt matter if resolution are 1080p - its only a matter of the encoding profile used to encode the supported video format H264
Tegra2 will NEVER be able to decode High profile L4.1 encodes - it's not a software issue, neither in terms of Honeycomb or Nvidia libs, its simply a limitation of the abilities of the hardwaredecoder in the Tegra2 chipset and this will never change. It is also not a limitation in the Transformer specifically, but a limitation in ALL Tegra2 based tablets and mobilephones.
This is the same reason why some mediaplayers like the Boxee Box that was originally intended to use the Tegra2 moved on to an Intel chipset before launch.
In short the Tegra2 chipset will support playback of videos encoded in 1080p or 720p resolution, using the H264 video codec and AAC audio codec - as long as the video are encoded after the baseline profile standard
It will not now or ever - play 1080p/720p encodes encoded after the high profile standard."
So basically, you have to reencode videos just like on ipad..

[Q] New update -> MKV support ?

Hello everyone,
I'm new here, I don't know nothing about what you are all talking about here ^^ BUT a friend told me that the new update allow the O2X to play MKV files > Is that true ? He told me trough an email.
I happy with the version I have right now and if it supports mkv with the new update, I will definitely install it.
Thanks for reading me.
I think we could always do it with certain programmes because the mobile can process it. But according to wikipedia, 4.0 reproduces mkv natively so yes, it should.

Friend,
As you said that O2x was able to play MKV video format since GB but in a low profile level.But after the O2x was updated to latest V30a ICS upgrade the native video player app is supporting more formats and can play 720p high profile MKV video formats.I tried to play 720p BRRIP x264 dual audio.mkv movie and it played smoothly, without any audio delay as experienced in GB.Only problem that i faced with native video player was that i was unable to select the preferred audio language in dual audio mkv file as there is no option to select audio language.Other wise native video player is superb:good:.
Thread moved. Please post all question threads here in Q&A in future where they belong.
Thanks
AvRS
that is great to know. love mkv.
L3.1 can be called High profile yet and O2x can handle it with 720p. sometimes i find some video that physicaly gets over phone posibilities. its played with HW decoder and its not very smooth.
if you want to made 1080p videos, use handbrake and set the settings with tegra decoding possibility manual. But i dont know if something changed with ICS, but i was not able mount SD card with other FS than fat32 and there is not posible to have file with more size than 4GB and its not enough for 1080p movie in low profile

As you said that O2x was able to play MKV video format since GB but in a low profile level.But after the O2x was updated to latest V30a ICS upgrade the native video player app is supporting more formats and can play 720p high profile MKV video formats.I tried to play 720p BRRIP x264 dual audio.mkv movie and it played smoothly, without any audio delay as experienced in GB.Only problem that i faced with native video player was that i was unable to select the preferred audio language in dual audio mkv file as there is no option to select audio language.Other wise native video player is superb:good:.

You attached thumbnail indicates that what you were sucessfully watching was indeed an MKV file (a 720p rip) but it does not indicate the profile of the file.
Most downloaded high definition MKV video files, especially tv shows, are MKV files (at 720p) encoded to HIGH profile level 4.0 or above. In Gingerbread these files would not play unless they were converted to mp4 at a lower profile than HIGH (I used BASELINE). This is a limitation of the Tegra 2 chipset in the phone.
Your Cloverfield file is an MKV, but I strongly suspect that the profile of the file is lower than HIGH (the file size is too small for a high definition, HIGH profile encoded movie with that runtime)
Sadly, im still not convinced the phone will play an MKV high definition file encoded at HIGH Profile 4.0 or above. And I dont intend to risk upgrading to ICS (with all the problems that could bring) to find out.
However, I would love to be proved wrong....
