I did a quick test. Nexus 4 doesn't really play .mkv files well. Check out the video.
So? Just install vlc or mx video player

Indeed. Had loads of trouble.
1080p MP4 played today (in the video it didn't) with the stock gallery app, but after seeking to the middle of the video it told me that the video can't play.

You need to try Dice player.
Is there any way to get the TW video player on to the nexus?
TW video player played everything perfectly for me
The screen has so much bleed through and it's very uneven.
Wish they went for an OLED screen.

Hello,
Will be possible for samsung ace to play 720p videos?
Thanks
NO....! Hardware problem... Software cant make a miracle...
MoboPlayer
Try downloading MoboPlayer and then then MOBOPlayer codec for ARM V6VFP. It plays almost all videos. Try it, its too good.
Soft decoding is really slow and drains a lot. Don't really need the 720p anyways this is not a high end phone

yes, maybe some app will play 720p using software decoder, but it'll lags like crazy. so theres no point on trying to play it on underpowered device like ace, its unwatchable.

I was trying to play MKV files on my OB but it seems that the original Video Player doesn't support it. So I downloaded the MoboPlayer on the Market to play it(since it can play almost all codecs), but it lags for a while, or the audio doesn't sync with the video for a delay of 3 seconds. The quality is definitely good but is there a better Video Player out there? What are you guys using to play videos of other codecs??
try MX Player

Been using Rockplayer for a while its pretty solid.
but none can play 720p X264 smooth. i've got the best results with mx player but still not very good. i don't think the hardware is good enough.
try diceplayer.
My Optimus Black(Korean version KU-9500) can play some of 720p H.264 MKV files.
I watched some 720p H.264 MKV files using QQPlayer, everything worked fine, no desync, subtitles were on spot.
H.264 suport only to 480p....720p is lagy..not enough GPU power.

This player is sucks...i repeat the optimal player for OB is "daroon playe"
I use Moboplayer. How is Daroon better?
Nuno
i prefer moboplayer
Tested QQplayer, Daroon Player and MoboPlayer to play a 720p MKV file. Moboplayer produced the best results in terms of Audio and Video Sync.
MoboPlayer is the best for my OB!
I just bought VPlayer through Market...seems to be the ranked 1st video player on the market...should be pretty good!

Are you sure that HD 1280*720 that plays back??A lot of people's ROMs back on the Wildfire S forums mentioned 720p and then it turned out it's something stupid like 720*480 What CPU settings did you use??

Earlier when i tested ....the sd card booster was set at 128kb
Then i changed over to value 2038 and still theres lag while playing videos.
I again mention..these are .flv type 320p videos.
thnk u.
Mx is the best u will get. Playing vids at high Res like 720 is hit or miss so guys please lay of it this. Were all experienced enough to know it struggles to play. This post is old enough to say this. I myself have tried all video playing apps and have gone back to Mx. I stream vidoes fine in normal Res so why the need for 720. If u want to play 720 get a top spec phone from the shop.

Does the device play .mkv videos smoothly?
I'm thinking of getting the device for video playback, just want something which can play my collection of videos.

1080p?No problem
hell yes i watched avengers full 1080... so smooth... these days I don't even use laptop for videos any more. Anything I want to watch I put it on my nexus
Nice!
All the more reason to get it!
MX Player with h/w acceleration plays 1080p videos flawlessly. Just finished Cloud Atlas 1080p and it was incredible.
I use bsplayer for playback. It's excellent

Plays my BD rips in MKV just fine, but I downsize them for the N7 because there's no appreciable difference in quality and a huge difference in file size.
I usually will use mp4 instead of mkv so my thumb drive will work in my Xbox360 as well. I haven't had any issues with it running from a thumb drive in 1080p
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk HD
You can play 1080p but the N7's resolution only goes up to 720p
I dunno about mkv, but I've played 1080 mp4 with no issues. Used MX Player.
As long as you use the ffmpeg plugin for your video player... diceplayer, Mxplayer, the archos player... the nexus 7 will play all videos, even 1080p, with HWA using very little CPU. Usually staying in the LP core.

No problem with 1080 using H/W decoding but I loose audio sync with S/W decoding.
If its encoded in Hi10 then no, it will play in software mode and drop frames. This isn't the devices fault, the available media players and codecs just don't support it yet. otherwise it runs other encoded 720/1080p just fine and smoothly.
Seems I am only facing slow problem while playing such HD movies..its not flawless for me..I am using MX player..any suggestions ?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
I never bother with 1080p since the screen only displays up to 720p. I change all my mkv files into mp4 and play them inthe stock video player without issue though. Play perfectly smooth. Watch at least 2-3 movies a week. If i'm lazy though i have MXplayer installed for when i don't want to change it into an mp4 format. Sometimes need to use software decoding to play certain files well. But it always plays them no matter what without a problem!

Did you set the hardware decoder to HW+? I because with only HW you can have slow playback.
i would also like to state.
This is a 720p screen, and i have no issues playing 720p video. The screen will not display 1080p resolution, so 1080p video is worthless on the device.
They may work but they are down-scaled versions of 1080p, to 720p.
There is no purpose for 1080p video on this device. Also, the screen is too small to really notice the clarity of a 1080p resolution anyways at 7". 720p looks and plays wonderfully on this device!! 1080p video >.> if you have a codec, it will play at 720p. Dont waste yo space!!!

Has anyone figured out how to play youtube videos at a higher resolution than 1080p? If I open a youtube video that says its 4k, and tap on the settings gear in the app the highest option I get is 1080p. Any ideas?
I don't think the YouTube app has 4k capabilities yet
