rock player... you can play mkv and addsubtitles. but in order to see subtitle.. subtitle and video must be same name...
Moboplayer check it out. Free in market
QQplayer. Free in market and supports multiple formats.
I would go with moboplayer

I've had better luck and performance all around with V Player. Rock Player is my backup player

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.

Yes, MOBO PLAYER is best !

[Q] Best video player for OB?

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

Is it possible to play in OB If mkv is coded in 720p or 1080p?
Thanks. ;-)

I think the point is not to reencode.

MoboPlayer, so far all of my videos including unreencoded mkv

I know, i was just saying 1080 is just wasting your card space.

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!

MKV are slow and laggy

I was extremely surprised that MKV do not work on the HTC Raider. My old SGS could do it I wonder why HTC did not make codecs for it.
I tried MX player and it loads both subtitles and video but is so laggy and slow since it software decode.
I tried to get the arm7 codecs but they did not work. Anyone know more on how to get MKV on the Raider?
Dice Player.

thank i will try it.
Convert them with handbrake to mp4, pay for the pro version of mx player and use it to play the files.

Too much unnecessary converting, mkvs can play, and you just need to search for the one you like best from the market.

I bought streamers specifically with MKV support so i don't have to convert otherwise I would have just used Handbreak and used my Xbox/PS3. When i had the the SGS i never had issues since it natively supports MKV, to bad HTC does not include this. I never want to convert formats ever again.
Funny thing is the few anime episodes i tried where high bit encodings, tried some regular 720P and it played it just fine.
Mxvideo player works with subs when i watch bleach anime (720p mkv format)
Yeah MX is very good, I have some anime that is very laggy. I guess it varies from encoder to encoder.
Dice player is not polished and i hate the ads, plus it still lagged when playing that MKV.
After trying about 10 players with the same laggy MKV. The 2 best players I find are:
MX Video Player by MX TECHNOLOGIES
MoboPlayer by Mobo Team
The troublesome MKV lagged badly with MX but played perfectly with Mobo.
Bsplayer is the best I've found so far.plays 720 visa no prob

I am trying to use BSPlayer (latest) on a HTC Vivid with 720p MKV streaming from my NAS, it's not even watchable. Yet on my SGS3 plays no problem. Same player, same MKV file, same NAS.

Poor Video Codec Support?

For some reason, the HTC One seems to have poor video codec support. My Galaxy Nexus seems to be able to play 1080p mkv smoothly while on the HTC One it doesn't seem to play at all. MX Player and mono player play them but not smoothly. Anyone got recommendations?
List of Players:
Dice Player - Crashes
MX Player - Laggy
Mobo Player - Laggy
V Player - Laggy
BS Player - Smooth
Have you tried BS player?

Nice find, never heard of that one but its playing things smoothly. Any others you recommend? (not to be picky but don't really like the interface )
You could try XBMC or VLC. Both players are in beta and I have not tried them recently. XBMC was working pretty well when I last tried it on my tablet. They had just gotten the hardware acceleration working properly.
MX Player, the best one hands down

VLC seems to be improving, with HD decoding turned on the largest nightly seems to work pretty well. Thanks again

Its gonna be the same with the avi and mkv files as well if they are encoded with ac3 codec.
I asked htc they will consider putting this into the future upgrades...
Till then use mxplayer and set the decoder to hw or hw+
