[Q] fast questions about mx video player - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

which one i should use for our galaxy note ?
MX Player Pro 1.6d Rev.1 (NEON):
MX Player Pro 1.6d Rev.1:
ARMv7+NEON Codec 1.6d Rev.1
Codec for ARMv7+NEON type CPU.
ARMv7 (Tegra2) Codec 1.6d Rev.1
Codec for ARMv7 type CPU, mostly useful for NVIDIA® Tegra™ 2.
For devices including Motolora Atrix, Galaxy Tab 10.1, LG Optimus 2X, Motorola XOOM, ASUS Transformer TF101, Acer Iconia Tab A500, etc.
ARMv6+VFP Codec 1.6d Rev.1
Codec for ARMv6+VFP type CPU.
For devices including Samsung Galaxy A, HTC Legend, etc.
ARMv6 Codec 1.6d Rev.1
Codec for ARMv6 type CPU.
ARMv5 Codec 1.6d Rev.1
Codec for ARMv5 type CPU.

afair, MX Player asks for codecs only if it needs to. Never happened to me on my Note. HW mode on bare player handles everything with no problems.

Does nexus one can playback 720p High profile videos?

LG's Optimus Q(LU-2300, only for south korea) has same snapdragon 1st gen 1ghz cpu. But it can play h.264 high profile 4.1
Both devices are using snapdragon.
It is possible that play high 4.1 videos on nexus one?
Sent from my Nexus One CM7 using XDA App
LG probably has licensed codecs and a modified kernel to take advantage of said proprietary codecs. I did a quick check online and couldn't find any mention of h.264 playback. The only mention of 720p is for the camera.
Quote from Wikipedia:
"There is built in hardware decoding for H.263, H.264 and MPEG-4 video"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nexus_One
It can also be seen in device specs.
So yes, most chances that the will be some video player that will play h.264.
hi,i used modaco's desire port for nexus one rom,and it surprised me with playing 720p in realtime,and also great camcroding on720p,i tried to play some youtube's 720p videos(downloaded FLV file from youtube)and it played it really really great,smooth,realtime!

[Q] hd videos 1080p freeze

did you install mx player codecs for tegra 2? (you have them on play store as well)
yes i installed MX Player Codec (ARMv7) these are the ones anything else i can't believe that i am the only one who is experiencing this problem
Same problem... Codecs are installed for tegra 2 but video framerate is catastrophic.

Try to clear memory, hold home button then 'stop all'.
You made the mistake of buying this phone.
Anyway try Dice player, I find it superior to all other players

Did you try with standard LG Fotocamera? I never had fullhd problems with froyo/GB/CM7/ICS
Nvidia tegra 2 cannot decode x264 or h264 formats @ 1080P resolution. Try converting the videos to MPEG-4 @ 1080 Resolution.

No problems with fullhd videos, recorded on camera. We are talking about movies downloaded to phone i.e. mkv or mp4 fullhd movies.

Yes, i do encode and decode movies. SO AFAIK, tegra 2 cannot decode h264 codec.
Tegra 2 can decode 1080p coded in low profile. Medium and commonly used high profile are not supported. You can google what choices you can set up to have low profile video. Very good SW for recoding videos is handbrake. I wish you good luck with searching best encode configuration.
i downloaded the iron man 2 trailer 1080p hd video here's the LINK
i'm using mx player, temasek final build rom and stefan final symbiosis kernel
the video is sluggish to play and the sound is not matching when stark open his mouth for now i didn't using ICS rom or cm10
i also try to play the video in different decoder included on the mx player but it doesn't work
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..
you should reencode to low profile, high profile is for blu-ray device or PC. don't know maybe exynos 5 can play high profile [email protected] with handheld.
Thread moved. Please post all question threads here in Q&A in future where they belong.

Nexus 7 stutters on MKV with BSPlayer&DicePlayer.

I am on 4.2.1 and tried to play some 720p and 1080p MKV with BSPlayer and DicePlayer which works great on my EvoLte phone. I just got this tablet yesterday and tried playing these videos and get stuttering like crazy. I also have HP touchpad with android and it plays smoothly.
I am doing it wirelessly via the LAN and Samba on these players on both the Nexus 7 and EvoLTE. The nexus can't play smoothly. Is it my wireless signal is better with EvoLte(5ghz band) or is it Tegra 3 can't handle MKV's. I have a Tegra 2 and it can't handle MKV's also.

Try using MX Player.

BSplayer
i have never had any issues with BSplayer stuttering.i use it on my nexus 7 as well as my galaxy tab 2 and have no issues.another good player is Archos Video player.just install the codecs with it.its nice.BSplayer though...best imo.
I recommend XBMC. Go to mirrors.xbmc.org, go to test-build and get the hardware accelerated build (feb 19), it can handle more codecs than MX Player.

I will try XBMC with HW accel. I tried the regular XBMC and it was the worse.
The people who have it working smoothly are you doing it wirelessly? I am thinking that is the problem.
I think SMB might have made it bad because streaming with the N card in the Nexus 7 is slow. I think it's one stream N which is barely above G speeds. My EvoLte and Touchpad which have both 2.4 and 5ghz bands seem to play it smooth.
I tried MXPlayer using ES file explorer to find the file. It was better than BSPlayer and DicePlayer in playing.
I will try to put the file directly onto the memory but I only have 8gb which kind of limits what I can put.
Use ffmpeg plugin for mxplayer/diceplayer/archos if you are not. Also makes sure to use HW on dice and HW+ on MX.

With XBMC hardware accel, both offline and streaming 1080p videos play smoothly. If you are paying the video from a flash drive connected through USB OTG it could be the problem due to the read speed.
You can also try VPlayer, it also have DLNA plug-in.
Archos videoplayer is the best videoplayer by far currently, build in SMB support, automatic covers, subtitles, etc, smooth hardware playback of 720p/1080p mkv on just about any device

You'd better transfer you MKV to .mp4 before you put it to your Tegra 3/2. I am using Pavtube Video Converter to do the conversion and I think the effect is very good.It can support to transfer any video format to the suitable format for your devices.Have a try of this and hope it can help you as well.

[Q] Is HTC One able to play HEVC aka H.265?

Hey folks,
i saw an advertisement of the Galaxy S4 and one of the features they advertised was the ability to play hevc videos. Does the HTC One also play such videos?
Regards

No one?
Just tried it in mx player with a 1080p mkv, it seems there's no hardware hevc decoder since it'll only ise software. It was choppy with audio cutting out, unwatchable.

Hi
Please somebody confirm is Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 capable of playing 1080p 10 bit (mostly anime) videos?
(please also include info what player you have used, mode of playback, hardware, sowftware, version of a tablet etc)
I am really interested in buying this tablet and the screen is just gorgeous but I am also an anime fan and would like to watch my anime in the highest possible quality on it.

Bump!
I'm considering getting one of the Tabs to avoid carrying my -huge- laptop to watch stuff in other rooms. Also, maybe there's a difference between exynos vs snapdragon regarding video playback capability. Any input appreciated!
And just to confirm... from what I've been reading, T700=Exynos and T705=Snapdragon? there's no T705-Exynos based?

I have yet to see the first Snapdragon for the Tab S series, all of them have been Exynos, i believe that they might use Snapdragon in the NA models to come around november to Verizon and T-Mobile but right now, the LTE and WiFi versions T700-705-800 and 805 are using Exynos.
Video playback has been smooth on my T705 (lossless 1080 flac).

So T700 is Exynos-wifi, and T705 Exynos-LTE.... if they finally roll out Snapdragon based TABs, there should be a new model number, right?
I tried a Hi10P video on a Snapdragon600 based S4 mobile and playback was very choppy -using BSPlayer-, do you know if there's 10bit HW decoding support on the Exynos running the new TABs?

What player were you using? SW or HW decoding? Prolly in SW decoding mode any of these won't be able to produce smooth playback and from what a quick reading on the specs and a couple of sites, the Mali GPU on the Exynos SoC would not support 10bit video decoding... so if I'm not wrong, there goes my hope...

There's no GPU, PC or mobile, that supports hi10p decoding. That said, I have a hard time believing that the Tab S wouldn't be able to play 1080p hi10p videos smoothly as my old Nexus 10 with a far slower CPU almost pulls that off and my Z1c with a Snapdragon 800 plays them smoothly (granted, it's a much lower resolution screen but still) with MX Player.
I've put a test video in the link below that people can try to see if it plays smoothly. MX Player is recommended.

Lol full metal alchemist... love the anime... it play fine on my tab s 8.4 with bsplayer and its extra 7arm codec.
Mxplayer was ok last time but now since they lose some codec due to licensing issue some of the high quality video just play choppy since its use sw mode only.
Btw the tab s also lacking some codec. Dont know why samsung left out some of the codec although the device are capable.

HW wasnt supported. so it was SW.
It's working just fine on my tab 10.5 exynos processor. However i had to turn off all the codec codes and run on pure hardware acceleration for it to work. Goes to show the exynos processor can play videos just fine without any hardware codec or software aid.

I wouldn't know about the Mali GPU capabilities, but I also thought a Snapdragon800 should be able to playback Hi10p, hence I was interested on getting the 'supposed' Snapdragon version of the Tab S 8.4.
The new Mali -T764- though, seems to support 10bit decoding and H265/HEVC, so I was kinda hoping the T628 Mali would do also 10bit decoding...

I hadn't read you... so you got that Hi10p sample that CazeW posted playing back smoothly? which player did you use?
That clip played fine on my 10.5 thru BS Player but SW mode only. All my 1080p rips play in HW mode so not sure... This is still a great device for multimedia.
I use a media player that is banned by ios and android called xbmc or soon to be renamed to kodi. The best media player ever!
It runs great on either software or hardware accelerometer alone.

Where do you guys get these 10bit Anime series from. I normally stream them from Anime.fullfights so quality is never really HD (it says 720p but most likely a bit compressed)

General torrent sites or dedicated anime trackers.
BTW i just bought a Tab s8.4 today, and tried the sample straight away using vlc, smooth playback, will try with the video I could not play with an galaxy s4, which is higher bitrate, if it plays back I would be officially in love with the thing.
No luck, tried a high bitrate video (with embedded subtitles), the same I used on the Galaxy S4, and it plays better but is still unwatchable Both with VLC and KmPlayer. I will install xbmc and BSPlayer tonight but I fear the results will be the same :/

Hi eousphoros, last night I tried with MX Player, HW+ mode did not work, but software&multi core mode seemed to play it back about fine, not absolutely perfect, but watchable, as soon as I flash a custom kernel a play with settings a bit I'm sure it will improve the missing -tiny- bit. Thanks for the tip. Will try also BS-Player&XBMC.
