so, can you play 720P .mkv (AC3) videos? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Ive tried Mobo Player, MX Video Player, Dice Player, Daroon Player and each time it crashes my Nexus and i have to do a battery pull.
I know the files are fine because i copied them over from my Rezound and they played just fine on that phone.... and yes, i saw the other thread but there wasnt a conclusion to that one.

video playback

what kind video does nexus play? I tried a avi file, it days there is a problem playing the file, would not open.
I'm wondering this as well. I have all my movies ripped as avi and wanted to put one movie on my device just in case I'm somewhere I can't stream. Apparently takes MP4, H.264, H.263 so we'll have to re-rip for the wider screen. I bought DVD Catalyst 4 for ~$10.
I use mx video player to play avi&wmv files. You have to use the software setting to play the videos correctly.
DICE Player for me, works 100% for everything I throw at it.
dice player is for trial 3 days.
rock player lite works. I tried avi, flv, both playing fine.
I could not find the menu in mx player.
why default built in video player can't play any video?

best movie player?

what the best movie player?
dice player or mx video player
mobo does a nice job on a good variety
Definitely mx player or dice player

dice player
dice player, by far. I tried all on my galaxy tab 10.1 and it's the only one that could play decently a 720p movie. So, it could'n do worth on gnex. I use with succes, but, on gnex, i don't try another player.
They all suck.
I ended up re-muxing MKVs to MP4 to play them on the phone using the stock player.
About the only thing I really miss from my Galaxy S2 was the universal hardware video decoding.
With dice or mx player, can you make a "playlist" ?
I have never found a decent video player app that can make "video playlist" !

media player

which is the best free media player for the galaxy nexus ?
that plays avi mpeg divx etc?
I use mx video player and it's working great even with 1080p from my camera.

I'll double that! Dual core CPU support, HW/Software/QuickSoftware decoding modes, gestures and most importantly - it's free!
so mx player it is then ?
If you'll find something better and free - let me know, please
I use moboplayer. (free and no ads)
mx player is better for now as it uses the whole screen. Hopefully moboplayer will update it to use the full screen as well.
I've had problems with mx player. some mkv's were stuttering a lot (of course hw decoding was turned on), others worked.
now I'm using DICE player. it's free but has ads. so far I didn't come across any mkv that didn't play smoothly.
+1 for moboplayer. Havent had any problems with it.
I have MX, Mobo, and Dice. MX is my go to app for video as it seems to work the best for me. If I run across a file that won't play I try one of the other two.

Do the MKVs stutter ont he stock video player?
My experience is that all MKVs stutter, even if the video is easily decodable.
I think the demuxers in Android 4 are somewhat broken/buggy.
I've used dice, mx, mobo, and dice is the only one that plays audio with mkv files. Unfortunately its riddled with ads and the paid version is unavailable for purchase. Anyone run into this issue?

There was a setting that I had to change and my mkv audio started working in MX. I don't remember what it was though

[Q] Cant play WMV videos!

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.

Is there a player that can smoothly play 10bit + subtitle renering on the N2

I've tried MX player and Dice and they are very laggy, was actually surprised about this considering the same video's play very smooth on an ipad2 using AVplayerHD.
Try BSPlayer plays everything I throw at it.

+1 for BSPlayer. I tried MX, it was laggy. BS played the video smoothly. It's software decoding, though, so might take a significant chunk of battery.
EDIT: The video was Hi10p
Try disableing H/W+ in MX Player or check out Archos Video Player . I find it has much smoother playback than MX Player
