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.
T-Mobile tab running latest Overcome
I installed summer player and it played everything for me even rmvb format.

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.

Hi just a quick question.. Seen has flashplayer is no longer supported on jellybean but does still work on jellybean.. I find it annoying I cant watch videos on face book and on chrome..
question is.. Is there a mod or hack or anything that will let me watch facebook videos again??
have already installed flashplayer but I still cant watch videos on the facebook app
Maybe what I did was download apk containing flash player however it doesn't work with chrome so you have to use different browser

what i mean is how can we get flashplayer integrated back into facebook app so that we can watch facebook videos again.. its same as bbc iplayer that works off flashplayer but beacuse jellybean dont support it bbc iplayer wont play
sorry i dont need any help now its all sorted.. i couldnt play videos in facebook app because i deleted te video player in titanium back up thinking i dint need it up its all back up and running..
just to let everyone know that there are loads of apps that dont work on jellybean because they need to run flash player to work but if you download flash player from a different place other than google play store then the apps that run on flash player will work
I had this problem with YouTube and imdb app then I found the solution in some forum. It looks like it's a codec problem. Just install "mx player arm 7 codec" even if you don't have mx player installed and reboot.

Anyone can help ? How do you download the video clip from Facebook and save it for future viewing
Video downloader Firefox
If you can install firefox and a video downloader plugin then this should solve your issue.. Otherwise.

If it's a video in the Facebook app I use es file explorer, when you click on the video it pops up with the option to play or download

I use the torch browser when I want to take any kind of content off the net. Pretty easy to use.
