Ok. I know there are several video players at the market. But not sure which is the best on the SGT.
I have VLC player on several of my machines at work and at home. It has become my #1 media player. Also, I have videos in these formats:
Extension: .mp4
- -video codec: H264 - MPEG 4 AVC (avc1) 480x192 @ 24 fps
- -audio codec: MPEG AAC (mp4a) 48khz
Extension: .ogv
- -video codec: Xiph.org Theora (theo) 1280x544 @ 24 fps
- -audio codec: Vorbis Audio (vorb) 48khz
I need a player that supports those video formats as well as others like xvid, .mov & .avi
I really want VLC Player on my tab but I guess it doesnt exist. So whats my alternatives?

I am using vplayer. But no matter which one you use, you will hear a faint humming sound in the headphones. I thought the problem was with vplayer but I noticed it in other players too except the stock player which has some cool features like bookmark and lock screen which others don't have.
Vplayer for streaming via tversity and upnp. Stock player is good but is very picky
Oh and vlc for android is due very soon

M video seems the best! I love the swipe action to fast forward or rewind
The back ground noise is from the Tab its self, simlar error on the i9000, use a new kernel with voodoo sound and should/will solve ya problem

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions. I will try both mplayer and vplayer.
Well I read the VLC discussion forums and it seems that the developers are working hard but are still a long way from a release. By the looks of it perhaps by May or June we could have a stable VLC Player version at Android Market.

Video Player help???
Hey guys,
I have a Spring Galaxy Tab. I have it rooted and everything. I've been trying to find a all in one video player but none of them seems to be working correctly. I have several movies and videos I converted to watch on my EVO or my Zune HD, but now that I have my tab, I would like use them there too. All the videos are in Mp4 format with either a 320x240 res 600x480 (forget what the numbers are but its the level above 320x240).
Vplayer - starts up and immediately shouts down. The the icon changes and is grayed out with a little memory card icon on it. Then I have to uninstall it.
Divx Demo Player (Rock player with extras) - and it wont play anything. But it plays any format of video or movie on my Evo.
Rock Player - I have the new version from the site and it wont play anything
Seems like nothing is working.. Most times it gives a error saying the video formats are not supported. But I have all these video player on my Evo (Which I know is a completely different device) but I'm wondering if my TAB needs video codecs or something?
Any ideas?
Moboplayer

Have u try? the stock one play mp4 avi mkv without problem except rmvb.

I will try Moboplayer. I'm still running the stock rom. Havnet tried to update to Gingerbread yet. Didnt think any of the roms would work since they are not based on the Sprint Tab.
I think I know what's wrong
Still getting the same errors on my movies. I converted them with iSkysoft Media Coverter for Mac.
Some of the movies I used the iPhone 4 profile.:H.264, 960x640 res, 30fps, 1500kbps birate.
And some using the iPod Touch mp4 profile: mp4 video codec, 640x480 res, 30fps, 2500kbps bitrate.
So now I see why they arent working, although both of those profiles work for the Evo and Zune HD,.
What is the complete best video format, res,frame etc... for the Sprint Galaxy Tab?

Which format you are trying to Play.. ?
Share link .. i ll try in my Note..
is this a video you have encoded yourself or one you have downloaded?
It's a video i copy from my friend (Ice Age2), dont know if he rip it himeself, format mkv. It play perfectly fine on his mac and his Iphone4(lag). My flv file from "Digital Tutors - Creating Stylized Female Character Concepts in Photoshop CS5" dont have sound and cant render in hardware more either (mx video player). I think its the software render problem cuz I just down and watch VS show on my phone just fine ( no sound when switch to software mode)
The standard Videos app on the note doesn't do DTS-encoded audio. Could be your problem?
I followed NZTechFreak's advice from his reviews of the Note and got DICE player off the market - plays everything I've thrown at it and does hardware decode for almost everything as well. Also decodes DTS sound. For some reason seems to use software decode for wmv files though, where the stock app will use hardware for those as well.
Dice player work .
Hi
I have a galaxy S i9000 with cyanogenmod 9 on it.
I'm having problems running avi files, when I try to play some film or anything avi it plays the sound but no image!!! Sometimes the video nor even open.
i've tried with a lot of players like Mxplayer but still doesnt work..
PLEASE!! I NEED HELP!!
Try dice or bs player.
Best Player -> RockPlayer
If you are trying to play videos from gallery, there might be problem like this... just play it straight from mx player app, it should work fine
I've had this problem on all ics roms too. I have not found a solution. Tried all the players in the store.

I got Moto X recently, and I'm addicted to watch series, movies and some stuff on my Smartphone.
So I installed MX Player like usual and his Codec for ARMv7.
I did the configuration thing to use only H/W mode (local and network), but everything I play on it goes to S/W, if I try to change it says that isn't supported.
My 1080p movies play with "lag", making it impossible to watch.
Anyone knows another player (tried BSplayer and Dice Player, but no success) or a workaround to make it work?
Forget about it. :silly:
I managed to fix it, by downloading MX Player Neon, the ARMv7 Neon and the DTS Codec, installing it all, then restarting my phone.
Hello,
Bad surprise for multimedia user like me : there is no more support of AC3 audio format and other codecs :
Galaxy tab 7.7 :
audio : MP3, AAC/AAC+/eAAC+, WMA, FLAC, AMR-NB/WB, Vorbis, AC3, EVRC
vidéo : H.264/H.263, MPEG-4, VC-1, WMV7, WMV8, Sorenson Spark, MP43, VP8, HEVC
Galaxy tab S :
audio : MP3, OGG, AAC, AAC+, eAAC+, WMA, WAV, FLAC
vidéo : H.263, H.264, MPEG4, WMV
Bad, yes. Surprise, no. They've been gone for almost a year starting with the N3.

Look for MX Player in Google Play. Publisher is J2 Interactive. I use it together with the hw decoding codecs and I can play everything including DTS audio, etc.
Thanks. What codecs you recommend?

@celtichazard, "REPRODUCTOR MX" ?
The problem is Mx player use sofware decoding (for Ac3 or dts audio) and use much more battery than the stock player with hardware decoding.
H/W+ Decoding still not playing M4V video

I downloaded the MX Player plus all of their Reproductor MX (MX Player Codec ARMv5TE, ARMv6VFP, ARMv7NEON) but the video is still not playing at all even it's already changed to H/W+ codec, would you please share more detail process on how did you do it? Thanks.

My vote goes to VLC too. It's still in beta but its good enough to be prime. The best video player for windows and mac.

maybe you already knew about this, but just download these files and the stock video player now plays AC3 sound just fine.
http://www20.zippyshare.com/v/64965084/file.html
just put the media_codecs.xml in the etc folder and libsac3d.so and libsomxac3d.so in the lib folder, then reboot the tablet
BSplayer has been able to hard decode every codec you can think of for several years now on sammy devices, stereo and multi channel, if plays everything I have thrown at it from AVI to MKV to MP4 in all sorts of different formats, even on their free version, there really is nothing that can touch it, it even has network access.
Once you have discovered this player the discussion ends, this will be everything you will ever need.
Hi Guys,
is there a lib for DTS audio?
I did try @[email protected] solution for AC3 and it works flawlessy, Thanks! :good:

Hi da.trute,
I was a fan of BSplayer too, I even bought the pro version, but on the Tab S 10.5 (S 805) I notice a lot of micro stuttering in hardware accelerated mode.
I had to go with MX Player and I can say it is much smoother (H/W+ enabled).
I do miss the internal SMB support of BSPlayer, but I flashed the excellent SkyHigh TW Kernel 1.9 by @UpInTheAir and now I can mount my SMB shares from my NAS with CIFS Manager.
I can use then the internal playlist function of MX Player (play next randon movie basically) as all the files in the SMB share mounted by CIFS Manager are considered local files.
BSPlayer PRO is still working great on my Note 10.1 (2012 version).

i've not noticed anything, i can play 20 gig MKV rips over wifi form my server down starirs to my bedroom through several walls and mine are buttery smooth.
MX used to have issues withg AC3 summing to stereo, assume this is ok now?

It is probably only due to my specific configuration. .
AC3 and DTS audio seems to be ok, but I have not tried listening with headphones so I'm not sure about proper stereo downmixing.
Anyway I'm on stock 4.4.2 ANF6 build with a custom skyhigh kernel and MX player is buttery smooth.
I can play mkv 1080 files perfectly (roughly 8gb) and my extensive collection of series and cartoons (mostly in xvid sd) plays fine.
God knows. .

Hi guys,
as soon as I froze ANT+ stuff, BSplayer came back to life again!
Now it is buttery smooth, and frankly, better than MX Player.
