Hi guys,
I'm suffering trying to get some videos to play on my epic. They are MKV: h264 (848x480) and ogg. At first I thought the phone saying it wouldn't support the video was the audio codec, which I tried remuxed as mp3 and wav, neither helped. At this point I am wondering it the h264 resolution isn't supported?
However, another weird issue is my epic also won't play some videos I already reformatted for my ipad.These are MP4: h264 768x576 and AAC. I can't imagine the epic being more limited than the crippled ipad...
Am I missing something here? Everywhere I look, all of these formats are supposed to be supported (well, maybe not ogg). Also, every once in awhile one of these combinations will play, but with missing audio, no subs, can't seek, freezing video, etc. Always some error, and usually just outright says the system doesn't support the format.
Thanks for the help guys, this is stressing me out lol, so sick of trying conversions.
What software are you using? Handbrake with Normal profile works just fine on the Epic (but High Profile does not work).
Last time I tried to find a decent video transcoder for Windows it was a nightmare, maybe this will help you (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Free_video_conversion_software).
If that doesn't workout you could try this: Find a Linux distribution such as Ubuntu, burn it to cd, when its loaded click "Try Ubuntu", and once connected to the internet press Alt+F2 and copy in "(sudo apt-get install arista); arista-gtk". I tried another program called Transmaggedon, but although it gave more control over transcoding, it didn't appear to work.
Ya handbreak did work. Unfortunately I still have to demux both the original and post-hb file to transfer the subs over as handbreak isn't doing it.
Thx for the help. I would still like to know the resolution limitation tho so if anyone knows...

So I have been fooling around with it some more and found that when I recode using handbreak I don't need to change the vid resolution, just have to force it to 24fps and everything, vid/audio/subs, sync fine (source is 30fps).
I don't think the epic supports ogg/vorbis audio, which explains why the source material didn't work, but then after remuxing with compatible audio why wouldn't it work? All I can think of is handbreak is compressing the bitrate even though I'm not changing any settings there...
I'll update with any new findings.
I took another look around and it looks like SUPER would work quite well. It can use FFmpeg which has support for pretty much every known format and gives you a lot of control over the output. I really didn't expect to find anything this good on Windows, but FFmpeg was originally used under GNU/Linux, so it isn't as surprising.

Strange, I run mkv with no problem at all. I use Double Twist as my player. Not sure whether this has built in codecs for mkv. I never checked because I can play everything on my phone. Except damn Netflix of course.
Thx for the recommendation chinoto.
The mkv capablity should be built into the phone independent of the software playing it (at least that's my understanding). All of my reencoded mkv's are working fine which I'm attrbuting to the lower bit rate.
The original bitrate was 1,534Kbps (video), handbreak compresses it to 681Kbps at the same resolution (24fps from 30fps original for sync though).
What's the highest bitrate you guys have had work correctly (no syncing issues even after seeking)?

Yeah thy switched something from 2.1 to 2.2
I just tried to play my frst 720p .mkv in a while on my phone and it wouldn't play in the stock player (it would before...with subtitles.) So I dl'ed rockplayer lite and it says hardware acceleration not available but it plays...with distorted sound and the image is all jumpy.

I had ordered my Desire from Mobiles.co.uk, but as I was driving past CPW in Chiswick on Saturady, I popped in and 15mins later I walked out with one!
I have had an HTC Diamond 2 (WM6.5) and an iPhone in the past, and I am totally delighted with it! Being new to Android, Im just feeling my way round things, but even now, I have to say it is the best phone Ive ever had!
I cannot work out how to play movies on the Desire! I moved a movie file over to the SD card (via USB) and I just cant find any app to play the movie - heck, I cant even find any built in utility to browse the SD card with! Does the Desire have an inbuilt video player, or do I need to install one from the market? Are any highly recommended?
This stupid newbie would really like some help!
If the video is formattet correctly it should be playable from the "Albums" app.
and no native file browser is installed, but I can recommend Estrong file explorer (will also let you browse windows shares on wifi and FTP)
Aaah.... Ill try that! I was looking for some dedicated movie app, but couldnt find one installed. Am I correct in thinking that MP4 format movies (as with the iPhone) are what the Desire plays? And any ideas what the `best` settings I use in my encoder (tmpgenc)?

Hey there. I really reccommend using doubleTwist on your PC - it's free and works really well with the Desire. It syncs your music and video files - and makes all your video files playable on the desire too as it does a conversion during the copy.
I've tested it by syncing a divx file on my pc with the desire - it plays great using the desire video player.

Well I tried a 42minute divx file. It took about 5-10mins to copy (transcoding as it copied I guess) and the quality was perfect. No lip sync issues or anything that you might find in a dodgy conversion.
I took a look at the new file on the SD Card - it was the same size but now intead of the divx file (avi container) it was a .mp4

Ill give it a go when I get in from work
I used super last night to convert an xvid avi, output quality was awful.
Installed double twist which has a striking resemblance of iTunes..lol I thought these android phones were meant to be iphone competition? however they are becoming similar in many ways.. Pinch to zoom, app store, navigation menu sliding.. Itunes/double twist.
Anyway Doubletwist done a great job of converting an xvid avi, although first attempt the converted video was nowhere to be found on my phone after the sync..
So I did it again and watched some 24 on the train this morning.. Quality was great..
Although I did have my touch HD as backup encase the conversion wasn't good.
For any one struggling to find the videos on your phone, open the Photo's app.
Not sure why its called Photos as it opens pictures and videos..

I played with the Video playback functionality on Desire yesterday.
It accepts MP4 container with H.264 video encoding (up to L5.1, but only BASELINE profiles) + AAC for audio.
MP4 - 1000 kbits H.264 + 128 kbits (stereo), 800x480, 25fps MP4 is very fluent.
AVI - isn't supported
XVID may be supported too, but probably only in a MP4 container.
Hi, for those that use the Divx Pocket Encoder, what settings do you use for best picture quality. Do you choose the VGA device on the list or the PDA device for example? I also use Coreplayer to play the movies. I tried the VGA device settings and cranked the video quality all the way up and sound all the way up for a movie file that was almost 1.5gigs. Nothing but tearing and stuttering. Im thinking about staying in the 600 biterate zone for the video quality. But still using the VGA "device settings" instead of PDA which is 320 X 240 if I recall.
Thanks!
I use pocket divx encoder and core player.
I find the best settings are,
Click on advanced. Select device and set it to archos 604 series. That gives output dimensions of 480x272.
Select the video you want to convert.
Under output options where it says video quality. Move it to about 10. If you want better quality videos move it anywhere up to 20.but then the video is larger. Play around till what you think is best.
Audio quality is good at 5.
Then convert.
To view the converted video best on your tp2 with core player.
Open core player.
Select menu.
Select options.
Select zoom.
Select fit best.
Done.
Thanks, will try those settings out
I get a purple line on the top of my screen sometimes when I continue a movie using coreplayer. I have Zoom set to fill screen and aspect ration set to auto
i got the purple line but got rid of it with one of the core player settings. can't remember which.
if i find it ill let you know.

It’s the setting on Pocket DivX Encoder. If you set it to archos 604 series, there are more than 1 archos. If you look at Pocket DivX. Below video quality below audio quality below brightness and sound it says the output dimensions. Change the archos device to the one that gives480x272 and it may get rid of the purple line.
Hey guys,
I just started using Touch Pro 2 (my first ever PDA) and installed the Divx Player for PDA's.
When I run a divx file, it's kinda stuttering, not very fluent and smooth. Also some minor lag between video and audio.
Is it usual, considering the relatively slow CPU, or I should be using some other decoders/players for a better performance?
Thanks in advance!
AVI/Divx are ancient, inefficient codec containers.
MP.4 (h264) make far more efficient use of CorePlayer's capabilities.
There should be zero tearing, stutter, etc (with Sense running) with proper settings.
Try PSP profiles for 368x208 resolution (higher wasted and bog down playback) and at as high bit rate you can manage.
I need a video converter for my HTC TP2
Then you need to search
http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=488
Check out this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=787812
I use MP4forHD (look it up on Google) as the HTC TP2 video player uses hardware support for silky playback of MP4 video files.
Once you start it, select the 'HD' profile, press 'Add' to select your video. Once it is in the queue, double-click the entry to set the various encoding and clipping options.
Don't be tempted to select '800x480' as max resolution. The TP2 isn't fast enough for most video material at this resolution although short clips do work. I find '560x336' is an acceptable compromise between video and audio quality. Set the input aspect ratio according to your original video material and the output aspect ratio as 1.667 (device). MP4forHD then does the full-screen cropping automatically for you and presents a preview prior to encoding.
Tried MP4forHD just for comparison sake. Sorry, but my recommendation of Pavtube Ultimate still stands. Using your settings here's a frame grab from a scene in Lord Of the Rings.

Quality is OK, but when you look at it next to the same frame taken from the conversion I did with the Pavtube software, you can see how much of the frame is lost even though I used a smaller resolution for conversion (352X288). And it is noticeably sharper.
Much better quality and no frame loss. It also plays flawlessly on my unoverclocked Tilt 2. Slightly smaller file size and it took only 50 minutes to convert compared to more than 3 hours with MP4forHD. If free is what you want, then by all means go with MP4forHD, but if a quality movie experience is more important, use the link in my thread above and get the Pavtube for $37 and enjoy your movies on your Tp2/Tilt2. Pavtube is much easier and more flexible to use, I might add.
ImToo Video Converter is a good one. They have a Trial available but it's limited to 25% of the Video or 3 Minutes of Video.
I like AVS Video Converter for the Tilt2. Not sure it has an out of the box preset, but if you know what you're doing with video, it will do a nice job. I probably wouldn't recommend it for someone who wants a "one click" solution.
I agree, I use AVS as well. It may need a small setting adjustment to suit your preferences/preferred settings, but it does a good job, as well as batch converstions.
It's still pretty quick to use. I have the 1 year subscription, which is probably almost used up, lol.
Does AVS do Blu-Ray? I've been using PavTube to convert BD disks from Netflix and it even transfers the 5.1 audio tracks intact. Great for putting the movies on my hard drive so I can watch them later without having to hold onto the rental disk for days. And I can convert them to Tilt2 format from the video file if I want to take it on the go. No expiration date, either.
The latest version seems to support blu-ray, thats funny cause' I hadn't noticed, lol.
I don't have a blu-ray drive or even use the discs yet! I feel like a caveman, lol!
Anyway, It seems to be able to let me convert files from and to blu-ray, but I cannot verify if it will allow converting from blu-ray as I do not have the hardware. I'm sure AVS should transfer your audio well if the source has multiple-channel audio, but again I haven't tested that as I usually convert stereo DVDs to HDD (my star trek collection, lol).
Hope this helps,
Well, i always use wannasoft Video Converter to help me handle conversion. It can convert between almost any video files with good quality and reasonable speed. some simple editing functions like trim, crop, watermark,etc are available.
It would be your good choice.
I recommend you Pavtube Video Converter. I am very satisfied with this software. It does everything you want it to do.

That makes two of us!
Once is informative. Twice, in less than 24 hours, is borderline SPAM.
So I have been considering the Ion as an upgrade from my ATRIX 4g but I have one criteria than the next phone I get cannot fail, or else there is no point in upgrading my phone because overall, I am happy with my current phone. I was wondering if the ion has the ability to natively decode hi-profile H.264 encoded video in an .mkv file. I have literally thousands of files on my PC and I don't want to re-encode them, especially because most of them have subtitles and that makes them extra hard to re-encode.
So if someone could find and test out some h.264 hi-profile encoded mkv video in 720p or 1080p, and report back the results of how it played, I would be super grateful! (Just FYI most .mkv files are h264 and most videos encoded in h.264 are encoded in hi-profile, so the files aren't that rare in case it seemed daunting to find a file like that) Thanks so much!

Hello,
I've searched the xda forums and all over the web for a solution to this problem, and found nothing. Hoping someone here can at least explain what's going on, even if there's no solution to my problem.
I switched to the Note 2 after owning two iPhones (original and, for the last two years, an iPhone 4). I have a moderate-sized movie collection of DVD rips stored on a home file server. I used the "Handbrake" program to encode the videos for use with my iPhones and an Apple TV I have. The "Handbrake" program has a preset for different versions of i-devices, and I used the preset for a second-generation AppleTV.
All my files have a filetype of "m4v", use h.264 video encoding and have both AAC and DD5.1 audio streams, as well as a U.S English subtitle track.
When I play these files from my server (or locally, it doesn't matter where the video file itself is hosted), using the built-in Video Player app, there is no apparent way to turn off the English subtitles, and, in some cases, the chapter text (indicating which chapter of a multi-chapter file is currently playing).
I have a friend with a Gingerbread-based Samsung Music Player device, and the Video Player in his device has a menu option to turn subtitles on or off. No such option is available in the Video Player app provided with the Note 2.
I can, of course, use another player app (the MX Player seems to be excellent), but I really like to use the pop-up video option of the built-in player, and I also sometimes use the Video Player app in multi-window mode, to keep a video playing on the top 1/3 of the screen while I browse in a second window on the lower part of the screen. These options are not currently available for any other video apps unless you are rooted and have installed a mod to use other apps with multi-window. For various reasons, I do not want to root my device, so that option is out for me.
Does anyone know of a way to prevent the built-in Video Player from defaulting to the display of subtitles? I really don't want to have to re-encode over 100 DVD's, just to solve this problem.
Thanks for any help. I can't understand why a useful option like turning on/off subtitles that was apparently part of Android's built-in player app would have been removed for any reason.
I'd really like to know how to remove the subtitles too. Until then, I've been using Dice, but it would be good to use the stock video player with the multi-screen function also.
BS Player has built in floating window. It's an excellent player. It also has built in support for mounting network drives and it can offset the audio steam too. Oh, and it plays pretty much everything
sent from somewhere
Thanks for your recommendation. I think I had already discovered this app - I know I was using a nice player app that had the pop-up feature, in any case.
Unfortunately for me, the real two draws for sticking with the Samsung Video Player app are compatibility with the Note 2's multi-window feature and the ability to use the player to send a vid to my Samsung TV using Allshare Play.
For some reason, a lot of other software that claims to work with DNLA and/or Allshare causes my TV to respond that the file I'm trying to play is not in a supported format (when I transfer playback from my phone to the TV), but the Video Player app always seems to have no problem convincing the TV to play the file.
I just can't believe there's not a hack of some sort to disable the automatic use of subtitles with this otherwise extremely useful app.

Odd that my default video player does not have the subtitle selection (as shown above) as well??
Re: [Q] Prevent Note 2's "Video Player" app from always showing subtitle text?
Neither did mine. I suspect the presence or absence of the option is related to the file type/encodings of the video file being played.
Whatever the case, I have never seen this option available on my Note 2's video player menu.

When you press menu, the resulting window is scrollable. That's probably why you can't see settings. It might be named as closed caption, so click on that and uncheck activate.
