Movies on galaxy tab

I am relatively new to android from a blackberry. I have a verizon galaxy tab and I have downloaded ttorrent in the market and when I download movies (so far I have tried avi and mp4 format) and try to view them they do not play with the media player and I do not get an error message it just goes to a black media player screen and doesnt play. I have tried implayer and arcmedia media players in the market and when I try to play the files it plays but with no sound and says I need to download coral player at real.coralplayer.com which apparently is a media player for a comp. Am I doing something wrong or does anyone have any advice on what media player to use. Or if anyone has any recommenda rt ions on apps that allow you to download movies and watch (preferably free). Thanks

Generally i dont encourage piracy so i will assume that you legally own these movies (read forum rules). Bottomline you cant watch this movie until you convert them into friendly format for the galaxy tab.
Follow this guide: http://www.thetechjournal.com/how-to/convert-and-watch-movies-on-samsung-galaxy-tabhow-to.xhtml

It should play just fine, no need off a other player, the stock one is as good and even better then the one's you find at market.
Just be shore that it not have DTS,DD audio, because Galaxy tab can't handle that audio.

Unless the Verizon one is crippled, those files should play just fine as the tab supports DivX, mp3, h264 and AAC among the other things. Could be an audio issue, but honestly i have trouble imagining an avi with an audio stream that's more than stereo. Then again, i've seen some of the weirdest stuff, like an h264 video inside an avi...

I used this workflow to convert some of the Blu-ray rips we have on our HTPC, as well as converting a few SD movies, worked perfectly for my tab. Movies play in stock apps.

From a quick Google, if you are being asked to download CoralPlayer, then the movies you are downloading are not actually usable, and you are being scammed.

What application allows us to download paid movies similar to iTunes? I have an iPad but prefer to use my Tab for watching flicks instead?

Thanks for the info. After further te st ting the only movies that seem to play for me.so far are mp4 movies. I have been using t torrent to dl movies. Anyone else have any other recommended apps through market.

Try installing mvideoplayer and vitalplayer. Those two should play everything else.

Dude you were so right...this is by far the best player out there right now! Thanks for the tip!

mobo player is very nice...one fantastic feature is that is sizes the video to the full screen. I was watching avatar on my train ride and the stock video player had it centered and not full screen....finished watching it wtih mobo!
thanks for the tip.

check diceplayer on market (GB required )
you can play 1080p MKV+DTS(or Flac/Ogg)

Here are top 5 Android movie APPs for movie lovers. You can use some of these APP to download or watch movies on Galaxy tab conveniently: " Netflix (free, streaming: US only)", "IMDb Movies & TV (free)", "VLC Direct Pro ($2.86)", "Movie Collection (free, ad-less version for $2.99)" and "GetGlue (free)". In addition, you also can rip DVD TO GALAXY TAB, but you need to consider the issue of legality. Good Luck !

Mobo player is great.
It now has support for subtitles within MKV containers without having to extract them. subtitles are great for foreign movies or for the hearing impaired and anime.
It also supports selecting audio track from within the container file. ie, Eng, JP audio track selection. I see a bright future for this app.

[Q] Can't watch my own movies/videos

I've transferred some of my own movies and tv shows that are in .mp4 format on the KFHD. They don't play correctly as they keep jumping from scene to scene and everything is pixelated.
Am I using the right format? I converted my .avi to .mp4 and they aren't working =[

It shoud be Divix codec format for example. Try to use MX Video player, its free on market. It opens almost all formats that i tryed.

mx works great with software decoder, i was able to play a 1.4gb 720p mkv earlier with no issues

Although its still nightly builds only, VLC will play pretty much anything that its desktop counterpart does which means it supports many formats. You can give it a try, get the latest apk from here:
http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/android-v7-neon/

Thanks a lot Spunker, VLC is the only player that has worked with least amount of issues for me

VLC is listed as "incompatible" for a KFHD at the Playstore. Anyone got an alternate source?

LG880 video player does not show subtitle

Does anyone know if the stock video player for LG880 (or O4X) can be configured to display subtitle.
An MKV I have tried to play with the phone does not show the subtitle, but on PC (via vlc) its displayed automatically.
If it's not possible, any good players to recommend?
thx :>

MX Player never fails
Play store link

Stock player can display subtitle with this condition:
Movie file and subtitle file must have same name and plafed in same folder
Example:
The_avengers.mkv
The_avengers.srt
No menu in player to select between subs file.

i think what you meant was that the mkv file had soft subtitles?
if yes, you need to extract the subtitles out first using something like mkvtoolnix, then place the extracted subtitles (must be in srt format!) with the same name as your video, in the same folder as your video.

yea.. i guessed i meant the subs were the "soft" type, which could be toggled to display in vlc player on pc. So it's jus one video file by itself.
Thx guys for all the tips and suggestions, noted them all, and using MX player now.
If only there was a discount to make it more attractive to buy the non-ads version.
Avoiding ads and any form of bloatwares that would slow down the phone.

Check in the settings of Apollo for searching, if not, perhaps the music is only being saved/accessible by using the app, so move the music to a separate folder on the root of your desired storage and check again? It's working fine for me having the UK top 40 in a folder on my SD card, it's all read fine..

also check if you have .nomedia file in your music folder perhaps

The music files are located on external sdcard under mp3.
I try to copy some of music to another place but don't help.
.nomedia is not excited on external sdcard I under mp3
When I go to tubemate select a video and click on save as mp3 then flash a ROM the music is not showing but under Video Player I see the music video that I save as mp3 format.
Maybe it help to know when I was having my neo and the music are it was not showing I change the mp3 ending to m4a and it was working but now dont work.
