I copy MP4 file resolution (360x240) 250mb into my Defy. It is able to play but unable to fast forward the movie which is about 1 hr long. Once you tab in the middle, it bounced back to the beginning.
Any idea? i have tried on both qq player and mobo player.
I can't even play an mp4 I have, let alone fast forward or rewind. Let me know if you figure out something better to play it with.
Use MX Video Player. Plays almost any video file

So I want to convert all of my video media to MP4 so I can play it back on my Evo. Any good tools, free or paid, that can do this as a batch? I have over 2TB of media and would like to make this as much of a stream line process as possible.
I have found and used Handbrake before, but I'd like something faster if at all possible.

I'm going to give you the tools you need to do that, but I'm first going to suggest that you google rockplayer. It's an open beta app that will play your movie files like xvid and divx similar to VLC. It works amazingly for me. But if you insist on converting then here's a link to help.

I'll check that app out and look at the link. Thank you for sharing your knowledge
Seems like rockplayer, doesnt play some of my videos.... Any ideas? Plays, but no sound.
I don't know about you guys but rockplayer is really bad at playing 720p which is all id watch on this screen..

Wow you're able to play 720p movies? I get lag with each video player out there. Rockerplayer, vplayer, arc.. but dvd quality runs perfect.
CM7 nightly 20 oc'd to 1.4ghz.

^Did you get that from the pirate bay? Shame on you.
Try an overclock it should help some. I stream 720p flash movies and they actually perform quite well at 1.516Mhz performance, but it does overheat after a while. If you are not rooted and OC is not an option, You might have to convert the file to 480X800 to get it to play smooth. Be warned though that this can take from 20 minutes to 6 hours depending on the speed of your computer, and results in image quality loss.
If you ever get out of sync issues, just jump back a few seconds and it will resync itself. For flash movies I usually resync it every 15 minutes or so.

anyway its to bad it cannot play 720p properly and i have no plans on rooting and oc
You can try Act 1, I have had it play a few formats the others wouldnt...I like Rockplayer, Vplayer not so much. Meridian is another good video player.
Try arcMedia

ya arc media is pretty good
If anyone is still looking for more video player choices, Vital Player seems pretty good. Either pretty new, or I just haven't found it before. Good interface, seems compatible with lots of my videos, and automatically selects software or hardware decoding based on the video (without having to select or toggle like Rock Player). I've seen some complaints in the Market reviews about the free version showing ads during video playback. But I haven't seen this. I have AdFree running, so it seems to be doing its job. Also, Vital Player is not yet compatible with Gingerbread, so it doesn't work on CM7.
Since I've switched to CM7, its Rock Player for me. It plays almost everything I've thrown at it, without lag. vPlayer lagged like crazy for me on some videos. ArcMedia has lots of things I didn't like about the interface, and lagged on some WMV files.
I've been using the stock video player since day one when I got my G2. I play all my videos at 720P after converting to .mp4 using handbrake. No lag issues at all.
Hello every 1,
first of all, i know theres many threads about "playing wmv on android devices" on this forum , but none of them helped....
Since 3 days I'm trying to play an HD wmv video on my GN , so far I've tried MX, Mobo, Dice and many many other media players with no luck
(The video plays flawlessly on my PC)
Mobo plays the viode with f*cked up sound..
Dice & MX play the video with the high fps and almost no lag BUT the sound starts to mess up after few seconds ( it either completely stops or it get sluggish ) and the video just continue on playing without sound/ with sluggish sound.....
Otherwise I've tried HW/SW/fast SW/ decoding settings but with the same results :'(
Any idea what else can I do (other than converting the vid) ??
Best regards
try daroon player or export your file to a new format like mp4
Rock player plays pretty much every video format

Dice player or mx video player.

Hello
Currently I am using the Jokawild ROM and Doomkernel V13
I don't know if the issue is related to the rom but anyways...
I can't play this certain video file. It is in .avi format its huge 699mb (around 1 hour and 32 seconds) and the resolution is 640x256.
I have tried using the default video player, moboplayer, and quickpic player and none of them seem to work. The video just opens then closes again. No error message at all.
I can view videos I took with the camera perfectly fine.
What could the problem be and how can I fix it. Thank you so much
It seems its something wrong with the video...can u play it on anything else beside ur phone if u can try convert it again maybe a different format like MP4
It works fine on my computer.
I had a glitch like that with some anime episodes that were AVI. The video ended up playing with diceplayer, when mobo and daroon didn't work.
Thank you it works with Diceplayer.
So I've been searching for about a day now for a solution to this problem. I've been trying to play MKV files on my phone, but every single player i've tried (mobo, mx, rock, vlc nightly, bs, dice, and vplayer) have been really stuttery and the audio desyncs massively.
It seems that most people are able to play MKVs but for some reason I can not get it to play smoothly at all.
Has anyone come across this and know a solution?
(the file I'm trying to play is a 720p h264 mkv with aac audio. I would put up all the file information if I knew how, so I can if someone shows me)
I'm really sorry if there is an answer to this somewhere, but I tried a search here and only got a thread talking about how everyone can play MKVs smoothly
Are you running a stock Rom or one of the aokp or cm roms? With stock I haven't had an issue with any mkv even on my previous sgs and sgs2. Are all mkvs having problems or is it just the one ?
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda app-developers app
dude i can stream mkvs without problem
mx player by turning the software decoding on in settings
or vlc player beta
It seems like it only happens on 10bit MKVs. MX Player is the best with software decoding but there are still some dropped frames. I saw a video of someone playing 10bit perfectly fine and a thread saying the S3 can handle 10bit so I'm not exactly sure whats wrong.
I'm running TuchMi 5.0 so I might try to go back to full stock just to see if that helps.
I would try the VLC beta but US can't get it from the play store and the nightly crashes constantly for me.
EDIT: full wipe didn't help
make sure you got the 1.7 update, for me the audio would get out of sync on any anime but with H/W+ that is now solved and i got back DTS thanks to custom codecs.
Software is horrible for me it plays fine, but everything gets artifacts and colored blocks etc. At first i though it was the device that god it wasn't
I have 1.7. H/W+ works for you? it keeps telling me that I can't play the video with it. Can you give an example of and episode that works for you?
Actually I'm curious about this too. Just tried to stream Planet Earth from my PC and I had huge lag because if you are streaming on MKV it uses software decoding...
To be fair I might have to push up my VSEL values...but I really doubt that's the case. Another thing I'm going to try is PS3media server which TRANSCODES (meaning your computer does the coding) for all media files...so it is streaming everything converted for your phone. The annoying thing about it though is that it won't automatically start with my computer
A third alternative is to setup a vlc media player server.
