Playing MP4 HD

I have a few movie clips that i kept from my HD2 and some of these work fine and others only play sound and no picture.
I have downloaded some 720p mp4 trailers from gametrailers.com and these only play sound.
Is there anyway to sort this out?
I thought all the clips that played on my HD2 would have played on this phone?
Thanks for any help.
I had a similar problem with a 720p MP4 file I had.
Converted it to a .WMV and a .AVI, same problem occured.
The only way I could fix it was render it as 480p instead, after which it worked flawlessly.
Probably a better way to get it working, but as a last resort you can try the above.
Max res video on Desire is 800x480 at the moment, 720p and divx support coming in future update.

MKV Video player

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

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...

[Q] Choppy video - used to work okay. No video in native player, either

I've been experiencing some choppy video problems on my myTouch Slide. I know phones are somewhat notorious for this, but the weird thing in my case is that it used to work just fine and now it won't. Same video file (a movie in WMV format), same media player (arcMedia), now it won't work.
So I thought "it's probably a problem with arcMedia." So I tried RockPlayer. Same problem. Then I tried streaming flash video on Dolphin HD (which also used to work provided the video was buffered). Same problem.
So I grabbed an MP4 off of NASA's website and tried it on the native player. I don't get any video, just sound. From what I can tell this video should play just fine: H264 video codec and everything.
I'm new to Android but not new to computers and tech.
Any ideas?
Well what changed? Did you install any new apps that may be running in the background? Did you flash another rom or something since the last time you played this wmv file?
What was the resolution of the MP4 off the NASA site? If it was HD that is probably the reason why you get no video.

[Q] Displaying Subtitles on Desire Hd ..

Hil All ..
I need A method to display a subtitle on Videos im My DHD ..
And Is there Any Video Program can improve Quality of .mkv Videos in DHD .. ??
You can either hardcore the subs (writing them as part of the video) or use an alternate player. Rockplayer and MoboPlayer both support subtitles.

Best Video player?

I have VPlayer Advanced and when I play an .avi video that is 624x352 it lags pretty bad...
I can't imagine watching a 720p or a 1080p video on this thing...
Anyone know a video player that is worth having? ???
(It must be able to play all formats like .mkv .mp4 and so on...)
Try moboplayer. I'm using it and happy so far.

Have you compared it to Modo player?
One of the comments says it can't play .mkv or .mov If not its not what I'm looking for.

playing .mkv simply is done if supported by device... i tried many but none could play mkv on desire hd flawlessly coz of hardware limitations...

modo player can play a 720p .mkv on my DHD mostly good. Not perfect but close!
The phone by default doesn't support .mkv if this video player doesn't support more formats than the phones default player then I'm not interested.
Greetings, I use and recommend "Best Video Player PRO (Summer Player)" is very good and lso read almost all video formats, only the interface is not very appealing but the rest works perfect.
Mobo player plays 480p mkvs perfectly without lag at all. Haven't tried 720p though

I Use RockPlayer. Plays everything pretty well, assuming you select the correct option for the file (hardware or software decoding).
I think you have to pay for it, but honestly I've had it that long I cant remember doing it.
Hardware wise, the DHD doesnt support much in the way of videos (or its awkward). Obviously, 720p 3gp, MP4, and mine is picky about WMV (it will play and then decide it can't play this file about halfway lol). it apparently supports AVI and XVID but I never come across any AVI encoded with MP4 ASP and MP3, hence RockPlayer.
MoboPlayer seems to struggle a little with MKV files I've noticed ... kind of lags. If the video has subtitles there's epic desyncing as well.
There's DicePlayer I guess, which could very well be the best video player on the market right now, but it doesn't support embedded MKV subtitles as far as I know so I haven't gone about buying it yet. Then again, I'm also a bit hesitant to buy it even with the subtitles working because I expect VLC to release their player in the coming month ...
there is nothing beter rockplayer. plays anything/
Rockplayer is the best

Yeah Rockplayer here to.
Been using it for a while now and it hasnt not played a file yet.
Not big on HD on the DHD so i dont really know about that.
Rockplayer for your videos and Poweramp for the music and your set.
Wish VLC would make a player for android. Worked great on my iPhone, but the iphone sucks.
old VIDEO PLAYER (not advanced) works best for me , better than rockplayer, at least on my phone

Mobo plays 720p videos really well.
I've got a couple of vids that are 1280x720 and they play flawlessly
