Is there a way to play video on CM7? I have Rock Player installed to play .avi movies. But they don't seem to be working. Does anyone know a solution.

You should try arcMedia on the market....I can play .avi files with it
I downloaded and tried it. The video still won't play. It's like something is blocking it. It looks like it's gonna start but then it kicks me back out of the app.

VPlayer.
How fast is your MicroSDHC card? I know I have problems with high-def video on the card that came with the phone. I hear that faster cards have better results.

Also what type of video are you trying to play? I've had some issues with some formats...
I'm trying to play .avi files. They usually play fine with Rock Player.

Can not play any video in CM7
If you use rockplayer in software decode mode, it will work... I was having the same issue..

What codec? What resolution? What bitrate?
I'm having the same problem, it looks like its going to start then back to the root of my SD. video format is not an issue because the same videos worked with the same version of rock player on MIUI, CM6, and stock.
So what's the best player that plays avi format files with CM7 rom?
VPlayer works fine for me. Been watching DivX DVDRips all the time with it.

Can utell me what rom ur using or if u have any theme?
Are you using the stock player on a stock rom? The stock epic video player supports a plethora of video codecs and contaniners, if you aren't running stock, perhaps it's something that was removed.

I'm on ics
So what if I just extracted the stock video apk from a stock rom and installed it.. think that would work?
You could try that, but honestly, I'd just grab a 3rd party player from the market that supports your video format of choice. That'e a bunch of options, and it would be easier.
im using the stock deodexed eh06 leak. one thought i have is that maybe the .avi is corrupted? did you try multiple files?

Rockplayer plays avi. I think it actually plays most video files.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
The .avi file is a container for various video formats. Thus some avi files may play while others won't, the best player I've found was Vitalplayer.

Been my fave for quite a while too.
I have used doubletwist, which works most of the time. Sometimes, it doesn't and I will use QQPlayer. That thing plays everything
Well I happened to flash randoms hawk v.3.1 and the stock video app in that rom plays .avi fine

Hi all,
After update to 4.3 I realize that Dice Player is crashing (vitamio is crashing too), try to install MX Player and right now still not support 4.3 yet....
Any player is running well at 4.3 on your Gnex?
Got a bunch of .flv cartoon videos that my daughter usually watch, now there's no player can play it. the stock player won't play it back.
The waiting game is all that's left. Nothing works for 4.3 as the api hasn't been implemented yet. The source pack hasn't been given to developers yet.

Vlc should work
Don't know about you guys but kinda fed up with all issues arising from simple to more major things when google releases a firmware upgrade. From playstore apps, dev mods, rooting... just about everything!
VLC isn't working for streaming online videos as it did before..

This is what you guys get for flashing too fast. It always takes some time. You should know this by now. Its happened several times already. Don't complain because you can't learn from your mistakes.

Maybe your post isn't directed to me, but I just wanna clarify, I'm creating this thread not for complaining the broken apps.
Just gained some input from the community for the video player app that running on new firmware.
Moboplayer is working too. I miss MX
BSPlayer is working for me. Again haven't tried FLV.

As the title suggests and asks: Is there a 4.3 compatible media player?
MX, DicePlayer, VLC, etc. have left 4.3 users in the cold until they update their apps for Android 4.3 compability.
Others have reported BS Player, Mobo, etc to work, but they either result choppy or or audio/sound only but no picture.
I've tried ES File Manger's built-in player, Gallery. There's .mkv playback, but ES/Gallery are pretty slow/choppy and can't keep up and such.
MX has been quite fast with such an update in the past. Let's hope it's the same this time round.

You mean that one:

For me that does not work. There is no "This version is unsupported" message but cannot get video and sound to work. Some modes (SW) even close MX player without an error or anything.
I was reading about that bug, I just got done watch in a bluray rip so I dunno? Tried attaching but I'm getting a token error...I'll look at the site and see which one I have.
UPDATE yep thats what im runnin. K I'm running stock settings and mp4 plays perfect. I wonder if its codec related. Do you have any mp4 video you could test?
Vplayer has had the 4.3 update and works brilliantly

Hardware acceleration on vplayer don't work. Only in BSPlayer work proper
K after messing around trying to play a 720p video on vplayer(choppy as hell), bs(not much better) and MX player had no audio on mkv I got VLC. The latest nightly runs almost as good as MX, few weird pops and clicks, but totally watchable.

Thanks everyone.
Tried VPlayer for a while. It was a nice run with VPlayer, but it's a battery clog/drainer, the holo ui is a nice thing about it, though.
That said, DicePlayer (my personal favorite and preferred choice) got 2 or 3 updates a few days ago and has been playing everything smoothly.
I got an update for MX Player earlier today, everything appears to be working again. Just thought I'd throw it out there for MX Player users/fans.
Hi, it seems like most video players are not working on android 4.3. I use archos & mxplayer and both are not working. I just recently tried vplayer and even though it works I want a player that can download subtitles on the fly. Can someone please recommend any compatible options !!!
bsplayer works fine and has everything you want
I'm not sure if it supports subtitle downloading, but the VLC Android beta I installed yesterday played back a 1080p movie with subtitles flawlessly. So I would highly recommend that. I honestly didn't know that certain movie players on Android download subs automatically, but if you are transferring movie files manually, can't you also retrieve the subs on your PC, just as you did the with the actual movie file(s)?
