Hi
Just got my nexus 7 today and trying to drag and drop some xvid movies on to it but they won't Play! Does anyone know what format the movies have to be before I can drag and drop files from my PC on to the nexus?
Cheers

Just download MX Player or something similar and it should work.

They have to be .mp4
Thanks chaps - MX player works well but couldn't get mono player to work!
VPlayer and VLC Player work great for all types of media

Just bought my wife a fascinate and sold her iphone. She had videos on her iphone she is trying to play on her fascinate however the player doesnt support the format (.m4v) I know I can recode the videos to a avi or mpg format I just dont want to spend that kind of time.
Is there a video player out there anyone can reccommend that plays other formats outside the fascinate's select few?
M4V is acutally already encoded in MP4, the only difference is the extension. Have you tried playing these files on the fascinate? what specifically are these. videos captured by the phone? Downloads from itunes? i've never had an iphone, but i used itunes to download a video (the free music video fo the week) and put it on my fascinate and it played right away. what is the exact issue you are having? Please be specific.

Here is a link to a player that plays just about everything.
http://www.filestube.com/ef8b1189a5cca0f903e9/go.html
Soul Player (Free)
mVideoplayer (free)
using cifsmanager allowed me to use the stock player for anything. I had(ve) many of those file types left over from airvideo.
jatilq is right those will work. I just had to add that I've found doubletwist player to play everything I've thrown at it and if you are really desperate, rockplayer.
I tried everyones suggestions and they still are not playing. To be more specific one of the movies was a digital download from itunes that we recieved with the bluray version of the movie and another was a movie that was purchased through itunes. I guess I will just have to recode them.
files were in .m4v which is a mp4 file type.
Thanks again for everyones help.
Forgive me for being new at this, but aren't there liscensing issues with itunes videos or the digital copies that come with some dvds? I have doubletwist & it works great for importing playlists from itunes but when I try to play any itunes videos it tells me playback is not authorized.

Correct. M4V if downloaded from itunes store is encoded. The easiest way around is download a program that rips the video why you watch it. Ill post a link in a little.

Decent player although its surely another galaxy s video player ripped and feature packed. That said Rockplayer being the other galaxy s rip will likely copy all features found here.

Unfortunately, it doesn't see the video taken by my Nexus S....
Updated OP to new version 1.0.132

It does you have to select the camera folder on SD card and will search for media files in that directory
Thanks. Best player!
Works the same as Rock Player for me. RockPlayer decodes 720p (mkv) fine but theres no audio. Regular .avis have sound
Definitely nice video player though, I'll keep it
As usual, can't play anime mkv videos without doing slow-mo. I think vlc is the only third party app that can compete with the galaxy player.

Can someone help me, I have installed moboplayer on my Nexus S and I am have a few questions.
1. When I connect my Nexus S to my computer what folder/directory should I be putting my video files in?
2. When I start moboplayer on my Nexus S, I am also confused about which folders I should choose. Also, when I start moboplayer I get "there's no SD card, make sure it is usable".
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Highly recommend using dice player for best HD playback becasue it uses hardware acceleration unlike mobo, rockplayer..ect
But to your question
you manually select what folder you want it to scan i made a folder called Movies..also dont use the one in OP its now available on the market

You were really vague in answering my question though. I am not new to computers but I am new to this. Do I have to modify (root) my Nexus for this to work?
For instance I connect my Nexus S to my laptop and can get the "removable disk (H" option in my computer. Can I make any folder within there and call it "movies"?
OR is there a specific sub folder I need to be in?
Thanks for your help.

You can name it alliebaba as.long as it has movies in it.

The folders as seen in moboplayer don't mirror what I am seeing on my computer. That's is why I am confused.

hey
i downloaded rock player but when i play the movie using rock player the volume of the movie being played is pretty less... is there any player which is better than the rock player and which has high volume?
MX Video Player is by far the best video player on Android IMO.
It was the only player that could play 720p MKV with subtitles without any kind of lag, problems with subtitles or sound. You can also change between audio-tracks.
It also got a the prettiest interface.
Hi Guys!

QQplayer. Free in market and supports multiple formats.

really cool player!
vPlayer Advanced is the only player that could play HD mkv files flowlessly -but unfortunately with no subtitle- .
moboplayer played them with software decoding but with low fps so the audio was faster than the picture.
RockPlayer and vPlayer were very bad for HD videos (software decoding mode)
V player has a trial period which expires then you have to cough up . . V Player Advanced is free, don't quite know whats going on there?
VPlayer Advanced is another application that has developed by different developer, maybe that's why it was removed from the market!
I recommend rock player.

i have RockPlayer from the Market, its great
Yes, MOBO PLAYER is best !
Hi !
I've just have a Kindle Fire HD for Christmas and i tried to read a MKV movie on it. I can see video but there is no audio.
So i tried to read my MKV movies with VLC. VLC can read AVI but with MKV : no video nor audio (black screen).
So i tried MX Player but the app crash.
I don't want to convert my MKV to MP4 or other.
How can i read my MKV ? Is there a player working ?
My Kindle Fire HD 7" isn't rooted but i can if i'm certain that i will work.
Thanx for help !!!!
Mxplayer should still work. But toggle to sw mode before loading the movie. That usually works for me on movies that don't load right initially.

I have tried poweramp but i dont like the look of it

Have you tried xenoamp? The app has its own equalizer and a great one at that.

Poweramp in my experience is easily the best music player for android, and as the post above points out, there are plenty of skins available for it, so you can tailor it to your taste.

Yes the default player on mine plays Flac files too.
