It is for every video and I m on stock . 201

Was it lagging on 12.1.A.0.266?
Have you checked your SD Card if it is performing well?

Try MXPlayer to play them. And first see if the video lags in HW mode, if it does, try SW decoding mode.

Thnx for your info but I found the problem....
Actually I was using gemini task killer which when used in Xperia devices using 4.3 or up kills video library drivers... but it frees up almost 500 mb of ram.... now I don't use it and the problem has gone

Hey Guys, I tried Almost all the media/Video players present in the MARKET
but those are unable to play some MP4 files on custom roms(almost all roms).
Only stock rom can play them
but i don't like stock rom. So please help or share your idea if anyone have?

HD videos lagging on CM10

whenever i play HD videos specially mkv file 720p, the video playback lagging. but when i play lower resolution videos, the playback is smooth.
I use CM10 rom, and MX player . how can i fix this lag?
I think it's because of the screen resolution. Remember, your screen is only 480x800 and the minimum resolution to play HD video is 1280x720.

The problem lies within your original intentions.
I am assuming MX Player is running the video codec through a software decoder (SW) so you shouldn't be expecting considerable performance, especially when you are pushing the device past its intended playback capabilities.
Nah its the kodecks. Stock could play 720p vids smooth because it has samsung codecks,CM10 has not. They are somehow registered by samsung and belongs to stock roms. I read about this long time ago when I flashed CM7. For 720p videos i suggest you to use any good 3rd developer media app such as any other than mx player. Sw decoding will never be as good as hw but samsung got the hw drivers so we are in problem
P.S. Remember to download the codeks for ARMv7 for mx player.

i find mx player does the job for me...also using vlc player to stream my movies to my phone is good. your rom depends on what rate the video plays at....cm7 is the best i have found so far!
Vlc works for you? Could you give me the version that worked on our divice, pls

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.

Alternatively, try BSplayer. It has no problem with mkv files.

I'm on .211 but the issue is there
I'm on 284 still no fix.
I notice it happens only with mkv. and both bs and mx player will freeze at the same place. So I assume if there's some error in the video, unlike other phone the XSP will freezes and die instead of skipping few frames.

Yup. The video play well on my fonpad too. Probably a clean installation could fix it I guess. But I'm too damn lazy to do it

this is the official support forum for xperia sp: you can try to explain you problem here..
mkv file is in the internal storage or in the microsd?
As for me, it didn't matter, both storage also prone to freezes.

[Q] Play 1080p Videos!!

i downloaded a video 1080p but i can't play it smoothly on my phone.. i tried mx player, bs player none of them have worked.. so guys do you have any opinion ?
Why would you play a 1080p video on this phone? Its resolution isn't even big enough to notice the difference between 720p and 1080p.
Anyway, I don't think the CPU isn't powerful enough either to play it.
