what video files will play on the htc evo and which one has the best quality?
h.262 baseline codec is the only codec officially supported by android's stock video player.
If you want a better video player try mx video player from the market its free

Is there any STOCK video player on Gnex 4.1?
Or if there is no stock video player, which one is the best one. I need it only for watching video clips and stuff downloaded fr web, but no movies...
Thanks folx
I thought stock video play was part of stock galaxy apk. I use vplayer on my own devices.
What stock galaxy app? Which one?
Pretty sure he meant gallery. I find going through the native player via gallery I can't play any movies I load on my device.
I personally use mx player, love the swipe controls.

There is a built in video player although the codecs it supports isn't the best. If you need support for many codecs I would suggest either MX player, rock player or dice player.

Yeah the gallery "stock" player is very basic, i think it's more designed for playing the videos, you record with your phone cam, nut much more. Alternatives are as mentioned vlc or rock player.
Btw does anyone know a player with support for more than one audio track?

MX Player, not only that, it also let you choose between hardware or software decoding, which is needed for AC3.
Hey guys, I been having some problems playing mkv movies on my phone, I have some 720p mkv movies and most of them don't play good, the audio and videk are out of sync, what could be the problem?

If they are in sync on your computer then the problem is your video player. MX Player plays my 720p vids just fine.
You should try playing the video on one of the following 3 players. Dice player, MX player, and BS player. There are some videos where one would play it better than the other (depending on how the video was encoded). Make sure the video are playing in H/W (hardware mode) not S/W (software mode).

Turn on hardware decoding in mxplayer.

MX Player hasn't failed me yet. Smooth playback using the software renderer rather than the hardware rendering for some reason though. Anyways, it works very well.

This would be my suggestion as well.
There's also Rockplayer, it's been awhile since I've used it but it did the job well. Has the most used video and audio codecs embeded.
Also, the stock video player will play the mkv files as long as it has the supported audio codec, can't recall the exact one...
Hi guys.
Can you please tell me if your stock video player can read bluray hd movies and ac3 codec audio ?

bs and mx player work for me. you'll need to dl a custom codec for mx player though. archos works with the free codec, but its performance has been crappy after the last few updates so i've quit using it. it's got the best UI though.

i dont know what you mean by bluray hd movies but, stock player does not support AC3 codec...
mx player works very well and it does not require other codecs to download... dice player is very good too...
Had same issue with MOBO player when I wanted to play a Bluray copy, so I downloaded Dice and BSPlayer - MOBO player decided it would play the file but not audio (Need codec), Dice didn't want to play the file at all while BSPlayer was the only one that decided to work flawlessly.
So i recommend BSPlayer but all three (If you can be bothered to mess about with codecs) are very good video players.
sadly, if you grab a 2012 gn 10.1 you'll have ac3 in the stock player. they chose not to license it int this version.
Hi there all.
This is a simple question: what's the best video player for the Xperia Play? I mean, for playing HD (720p, not 1080p) content.
I used a lot Moboplayer, but it slows a lot in HD videos, even installing the codecs... And the latest versions of Moboplayer take a while to start and it's a bit annoying...
What video player do you use for HD content? Please, if the recommendation you give needs some codec, say wich one (a direct link can be even more helpfull!).
