I tried putting a small video clip on my memory card. When I open it it plays like it's in slow motion, and it's really choppy. The audio for the clip plays in normal speed.
so a few questions...
Is there a best format of video files for my excalibur?
Is there mabey a player better than windows media player?
I hacked my psp a few years back. I was able to download full movies and watch them on it. I may be asking too much... but I'm wondering if it's possible to do this with my phone.
when I'm at work with my phone in my hand the ol' boss doesn't mind. Of course when I'm hanging on to a game system.... the **** hit's the fan!
Here you are a free bit of software that can recode videos http://www.erightsoft.com/SUPER.html download link @ bottom there is lot's of speal...
I use A-One FLV to AVI but it's not free, there is alot of software that can do it.
I recomended SUPER as i know lots of peeps use it, so set the resolution 320x240 keep bitrate down on video larger it is larger output file, audio can be set to mono and again about 64kbit/s and still be fine, .mp4 is a good quality for Mobile video or for even more compression .3gp
Re: Player TCPMP "to which is free" or CorePlayer "the pay version"
I've tried downloading TCPMP. When I try installing it I get a message that the install package isn't designed for my device.
this is where I'm downloading it from.

Is there a different version that I need to use?

All you have to do is enable all file formats on your options
Related question... How do I watch the phone-recorded videos on my PC after I pull them over via ActiveSync? I tried converting them with Handbreak but they are not recognized as a compatible format.

Try VLC Media Player you will want codecs CCCP is XP & Vista compatable "if you have any other codec packs installed then do not install"
well i actually wanted to start a mobile movie thread
like..i will be encodeing movies for mobiles..which will play without a hitch...and patches...
and uploading them on rapidshare or megaupload..
sooo what say??
what happens if you run out of battery in the middle of a movie, can you fastforward it afterwards and in an "easy" way? If it's possible, it depends on the video format, video player or both?
I have an At&t tilt 2 and I tryed a few different Roms now, and I can't get Coreplayer to work on any of them, I have even tryed TCMPM, core will just never load, and TCMPM always gives me an error on install....I need to find how to play divx and xvid movies, PLEASE HELP...

Try this player:
Thank you so much for the responce,
I have tryed the divx player before, it worked horribly, most time video was choppy, and sound never worked. has anyone been able to get coreplayer to work, or is their another player?
I use Coreplayer 1.3.6 and works great for everything. What problem are you having with Coreplayer??
oh I was using version 1.2.1, and it wasn't working, now I tryed Coreplayer 1.3.6 and it works Only now i have a new huge problem, it doesn't support ac-3 audio codec, all my videos use ac-3.
Is their any way to fix this?
Divx
I tried Divx too and it had a font size of 1-2. Even when I guessed the right button to play something it would only play on a 1 inch square screen. It was like everything was miniaturized. I had to uninstall.
hi,
i'm looking for an awesome media (video) player for my phone.
i'm looking for a good video player that can play a lot of different file formats.
avi, mpg, mpeg, mp4, wmv, etc.etc.
on my laptop i use VLC, and i really love it.
but i can't find a mobile version of VLC.
anybody has a clue for an awesome videoplayer for my phone?
The latest version of TCPMP plays a whole slew of formats. If you want a media player with alot of functionality, Kinoma Player (shareware) has many different functions. Not sure all the formats it plays.
There's Core Player, a branch of TCPMP that is a pretty smooth video player as well. Finally, DivX has an app for WinMo as well, so you could give that a try.
tcpmp and core player are the best on my opinion
i've looked up tcpmp on the web, and found a page about it on http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-tcpmp-v0-72rc1.html but it doesn't seem to be the right one.
when i instal the cab, the program says on startup "unexpected program error, send crash.txt to the developers......".
so it doesn't run on my pocket pc.
i tought i found the tcpmp website with http://coreplayer.com/ but it costs me 24 bucks.
the free version is very difficult to find.
any ideas?
i found yet another release on this forum.
that one seems to be working a bit....
but the movie quality sucks big time.
the sound is on and off all the time.
the picture is shocking...
it's looks like the phone has to work really hard to let me see half a second each time.
it's like:
the audio........... is not .......... like it's ............. supposed........... to be..............
(and the video is the same).
am i doing sometyhing wrong?
I had to look really hard also for a 6.1 TCPMP. Then on this site there seem to be quite a few different ones. I got mine at http://www.mobilitysite.com/boards/1059593835-post107.html it says it is version 4.0.3. But it is open source so people do whatever they want with it. Mine is pretty ugly to look at, but it has always worked (except for the initial crashing - see below). Would like a nicer looking version.
Which one did you download?
This fixed my crashing "If you are having issues with no video or the crashing issue on the HTC HD2 this may help you, You will need to go into the Video settings and change the Direct Draw --> GDI and it should resolve the issue you were having."
i don't remember which one i downloaded... wnloaded about 5 of them from different sites.
i installed all of them (one at a time) to see which one worked best.
the one i've got is worked the best way... but like i said it's shocky... to say the least.
i'll try the one you just send me.
i don't care for looks, i just care for video quality.
i can't believe that a simple viedeoplayer can be so difficult to find on windows mobile.
isn't the whole idea of mobile windows, the idea that you have a mobile version of windows?
and isn't windows also (largely) used for different kinds of media? e.g. video, music etc...
windows media player is the best...

Brenda/Vinnie...I don't know if the version at the link below is the one you're using, but check it out and see:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5657963&postcount=1
Brenda, I'll still give you a hand getting prepped for the upgrade if you need, I just haven't had much time today to sit down and work on that
TBH I find it alot easier just converting movies and using the HTC player. The Videora TP2 converter does its job perfectly and I like having the movies in the HTC album. Easy access, smooth playback.

the video player is only pops up when you play a video file on the touch pro2...there isn't an icon, tab, or anything like that...
i can vouch that videora is an outstanding programing for converting video for use on the touch pro2...i have the metal gear solid 1,2 & 3 cut scenes on my device...!!!
media player
Try the total media player it runs good

looks pretty good... but the thing i'm looking for i versatility (i probably wrote it wrong...).
it has to be able to play avi, mpg, mpeg, wmv, mp4 and a lot more if possible.
is this player able to do that?
looks are not important, performance is!
till thus far, tcpmp isn't good enough (it.... plays..... movies...... like..... this...... ).

How do you play a video file so the HTC play can pop up? Do you click the video file from explorer, RESCO or Total Commander type software? I do not understand.

What movies are you trying to play , I dont think you ripped them right or if you got it from some websites , sometimes the copy isnt good. Dont just blame the media player.

You can access them from the HTC album tab just like your photos. That, or tap them from explorer.
EDIT: Granted they are in the MPEG-4 format you get from, for example, the Videora converter I linked.

i'm not to sure how good the quality of the file is.
all i know is, it's a 700 mb avi file that plays beautifully on my old laptop with VLC running on win xp.
now i'm trying to play that same file on the video player you linked, but the quality is awefull.
the audio stops and starts playing every few seconds, and the video just 1 frame a second (and every now and then, it skips a few frames to catch up with the audio).
i personally just think that nobody bothered to make a descent video player for win mobile. OR (and please forgive me for saying this), the phone simply sucks totally (mostly because it has win mobile on it....).
Is there an Android APP that can play the embedded subtitles of an MKV file? my phone can play the video flawlessly but it doesn't show the subtitles..
I hope there's a way without any need of converting..
Thanks..

MODS pls delete this thread...
Guys, I posted a workaround in another thread... > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6902833&postcount=9
hey buddy, does it play MKV downloaded straight from the net?
Like a 720p vid without needing to encode?

yes it does.. but no SUBS..
I've tried Naruto Shippuuden and Bleach both 720p by [Horrible Subs], Audio and Video works, but no Subs...
yeah I wanna know if there was an android video player out there, which can display embedded sub while watching hd content.
Check out this h**p://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6902833&postcount=9 Right now it's the easiest solution.
Isn't that the OP's 'solution' ? haha
yes
he figured it out after
LOL
It still looks like there isn't a standalone player out there.
Using a few players it would either do one of the following:
1. Play the video in really good sharp resolution without dropping any frames, but here's no sound, and no subtitles. Ack!
2. Play the video in really awful quality with artifacts the size of Mount Tiwaluho but you got sound and subtitles, yet it's stuttering.
Can't win eh? Still, it seems that it is possible. The hardware is there. I think it's only a matter of time. Until then, we're better of using this workaround:

Try this
http://www.androidzoom.com/android_applications/media_and_video/mkv-subextractor_ltlg_download.html
works fine for me
works with embedded srt and ass subs
I use mVideoPlayer, plays 720p mkvs with softsubs perfectly for me
Ah, i see The.Opethian and Volcacius beat me to it. And now I find out they just linked to one of the OPs other posts...
I am in disbelief that this super google phone can't play half the stuff my galaxy tab can play ...
-.mp3 yes
-.wma no
-.rmvb no
-.mkv no
-.avi (xvid) yes but choppy
-.avi (mp4) yes ok
I wish people reviewing the phone would have mentions this. Anyway, Feel free to add to the list like ogg, etc.
Its only software
I don't think it is worth mentioning it is only software. Maybe try using Rock Player or Doubletwist to play your files.
And anyway, who would want to use WMA anyway? Use Handbrake to convert to a mobile friendly format (h264) which takes less space and has higher quality.
Have u tried media players from the market? Heard those work great.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
I tried MX video player for the video, and it could play all videos--though xvid on HW is jerky (~20fps) and I had to switch it to SW mode. And it still choke at 1080p mkv (~10fps).
I tried winamp for audio but neither seems to want to play wma...I could convert them but that's an extra step...
Besides, I know the galaxy series could play them fine, that's why I feel this is a step backward.
I can watch 1080p mkv's super smooth with Dice Player, and it has played everything i threw at it without any problemas whatsoever. Overreact much?
Diceplayer fixed choppy avi playback in the latest update, unfortunately you can't buy the full version at the moment.
V player works fine, I covert videos to mp4. They play great natively

MKV is just a container so you're wrong, it does play MKV, you just need to make sure its encoded properly.

You obviously don't understand what a "Nexus" phone is. Plenty of choice out there that support these kind of files OOTB. Otherwise as others have stated go grab some goodies from the Market.
MFW people cant read :\
http://developer.android.com/guide/appendix/media-formats.html
dude, there are lots of 3rd party apps to cover the missing formats
MoboPlayer is free in Android Market, one of the best open source players for every format
many of which there's build in hardware support
