i dont have this phone yet, i want to see if it supports those samples in stock player or dice player or mx player hw mode
Both play in MX...
720p with s/w decoding
480p with h/w decoding
Dice plays 480 fine h/w decode, but stumbles and falls over on 720 s/w decoding.....gets almost to the end of clip, then freeze [old DICE version]
Default video player only 480 plays..

BTW MX Player is awesome video player. I choose it as my default one and I am very satisfied with it.
1024 p movie can be play on our phone but at the same time you will get miss-match voice with motion so no point to play such a high quality movie with our phone..480/ 720 Would be good enough

Hi,
As you guys might know, playing 720p HD videos on the DHD is impossible. the video will be in Slow Mo!
Anyone has a fix or a workaround for that?
Thanks =)
p.s. i think is 1080 x 720 resolution for the video!
If you can play it with system player it should be possible because it uses hardware decoding (gpu renders the video). MoboPlayer or RockPlayer are 3rd party players with hardware decoding
If you use a player like vplayer that only supports software decoding (cpu renders the video) it's possible that it's laggy and out of sync.

resolution is 1280x720 and when I record them they play back perfecty in the stock player
actually rock player doesn't work. i download you tube videos via tubemate in 1080x720 format. it lags even on rock player
Rubbish! Desire HD extremely smooth playback HD stuff with stock player.
Stock player
.mp4 720p great
.avi 720p great
.wmv 480p great (i didin't try 720p)
.flv not at all ->SGS can great
.mkv not at all ->pity because SGS can great
RockPlayer ARMv7 depending on decoding mode
.mp4 720p great
.avi 720p good but big file has some lags
.wmv 480p great (i didin't try 720p)
.flv great but i've only checked 480p
.mkv poor fps, a lot of lags
It's pity that default player can't open .mkv files. A lot of HD movies has this extension... I don't know why HTC hasn't implemented this codec to the player when Samsung could. It's proof, it's possible.
If U want to download HD stuff from YouTube, try JDownloader ->it's great
DHD and even SGS won't playback full HD 1080p video clips. Probably it's software limitation.

.mkv is playable with the newest realese of rockplayer via hardware decoding. (Just ATM sound doesn't work)
You mean hardware limitations?
alright. thanks everyone! it was something in my settings =( so sorry!
Please mark thread as solved.

Hello,
I'm having some problems about playing 720p videos from HTC Desire Z. It plays some 720p videos smoothly which are recorded by itself (also there is a fps problem in there, some are about 19fps).
I wonder which {container, codec} we should use to play 720p videos smooth. I tried with several media players like Vplayer, Moboplayer, Rockplayer and Android's default media player.
I tried some files. Here their properties:
Container: MKV
Video Codec: H264
Audio Codec: AC3
Overall Bitrate: ~4.5Mbps
Length: 71min
Size: 2.2GB
This was a concert video.
--
Container: MKV
Video Codec: H264
Audio Codec: AC3
Overall Bitrate: ~4.5Mbps
Length: 40min
Size: 1.1GB
This was a tv show.
Rockplayer can play this videos but not smooth enough. It freezes for 5-10 milliseconds at every 1-2 seconds.
Using stock 2.3.3 ROM and stock SD Card.
Phone can play 480p videos smoothly but I think it can play 720p videos since it can record 720p videos.
Thanks in advance.
The DZ isn't actually powerful enough to play 720p videos from an external source. I can barely play 480p AVI smoothly. MKV and MP4 are a total lost cause for me. Haven't tried after I installed Virtuous 2.0 and had it OC'd to 1.5GHz though.

As far as I know, DZ has hardware decoding for 720p videos. So it can play 720p videos and DZ records with 8mbps and encodes with h264 and its container is 3gp. Only difference is container. Maybe changing container will fix this but I tried with avi, mkv. Maybe I should try with 3gp container.
Anyone tried?

Tried with its trial version but it says "sorry, this video can not be played" when i try to play video which I mentioned at my first post (tv show one) and also another video which is a mp4 video.
DicePlayer can not play any video in the phone
I use Rock Player Lite and it can play MP4 vids properly. Granted, I just OC'd my DZ to 1.5GHz, and an MP4 file encoded in h.264 with an average bitrate of 1.5kbps plays flawlessly. At stock speeds the audio goes out of sync and artefacts get introduced. Haven't tried MKV files since I OC'd yet though. Software decoding in RPL.
Hardware decode basically is the same as the default media player, software decoding takes up more CPU resources, but is able to play more formats and containers.
I haven't found any way to reliably open mkv container on desire z. MX video player by far does the best job (and yes, I've used other players like rockplayer, dice player, etc) but it still plays 720p mkv h264 slightly choppy. 720p h264 mp4 plays fine with software and hardware decoder, while 720 avi xvid can play smoothly on a small overclock.
I try to avoid 720 anyway because the difference between 720 and 480 on a 3.7inch screen is barely visible to me lol
Exactly lol. As long as it can play 480 on the DZ it's more than fine by me. 720p on a 480x800 screen... ~_~
MX Video Player.. Never heard of it. Gonna search and try that out. How does it compare to Rock Player?
i really liked rockplayer for a long time until i found out mx player had software codecs tweaked for ARMv7. Check it out on the market, its free anyway lol
I tried mx player but still there is the same problem.
I also tried to change the container to mp4. PC plays well but when I try to play on phone, video is smooth but there is no sound and audio codec is ac3. Maybe the problem is here.
I tried with rockplayer using software decoding, there is sound but laggy video.
Try MX with SW. Works fine on any container and format so far for me.

Tried in 3 available mode in MX Player but still laggy video
The trick is to use video in the correct settings for the hardware decoder. If you do that then it won't matter if it's in mkv or mp4.
For the video portion, use baseline profile h.264 with the maximum bitrate (VBV) capped at 8mbps up to 720p
For audio, use AAC-LC in stereo.

I think so. But there is a problem when playing MKV files. There is problem after I changed container to mp4, though.
But the audio codecs of videos which I tried are not AAC. Maybe this causes the problem.
I don't know, how hard can it be to play videos which have AAC audios.
Use Handbrake to encode and it'll be easy to specify AAC for audio. You can use the iphone profile for encoding.
Hi again,
I've solved my problem. I use dice player which plays 720p mkv videos (even with ac3 audio codec).
I wrote here dice player can't play any video in the phone. That was a hardware decoding problem, I think. When I try to play an unsupported video format with hardware decoding, hardware decoding crashes and unable to play videos as it should be.
So, after that if I restart the phone hardware decoding comes back and plays videos perfectly.
Is this a common issue? If it is not should I do a factory reset to my phone?
To be honest, with our default 800*480 screen, we would not be able to take advantage of 720p quality as 720p is 1280*720 (Unless we stream it to a HDTV or Monitor). Re-encoding it to 800*450 is wiser to conserve file size as well
found this recommended settings at afterdawn for Handbrake or MEGUI. Tried it with rockplayer hardware decoding and it is smooth i used mp4 format

i am using moboplayer for my sgy, its very good and it has screen lock option which is very useful while watching videos
MX Player is a good one, it could play any video formats and with HW accel (less lag than SW) and a touch lock feature
I recommend DAROON PLAYER

sir if i play 720p or 1080p videos on mx there is a lag in the video in sw mode..............how to fix it sir!!!!!!!!!!!!
mx video player is good ,yes it hangs a bit in 720 p and above(may be due to lack of sufficient hardware support) but is still an advanced player as compared to others even has a pinch to zoom function
is there any other option to play a 700mb file in it??
i am facing lags in playing 1080p mkv videos tried stock player,mx player and also v player.if u put Software acc then there is minor lags.does galaxy nexus supports 1080 video playback? or is this the rim/kernel problem. please help

Try BS Player Free from the market. I also use MX player because I feel it outputs better sound but BS plays everything I throw at it Including 1080p mkv's and I even have a couple of very high bit rate 1080p m2ts files that play on it just fine.I'm on Trinity kernel (1536/384). Let me know how it goes.
I have had a lot of problems with the smoothness on Mx player lately. It used to play HD files fine in software mode but lately has not.

+1 BS Player free , good for HW decoding and also those mkv movies that don't appear to have sound with other players
I'm trying to find a video player for movies and TV shows that has hardware decoding that works. I mostly play Xvid avi files and some x264 mkv/mp4s. I've tried MX PLayer, but h/w and h/w+ decoding is slow and choppy.
Any suggestions?

The Gnex doesn't seem to be very good at HW decoding Xvid AVIs (one has to use an SW decoder, really) but it is very capable at playing any sort of x264/H.264/AVC video in MP4 and MKV containers even up to 1080p resolution. I normally use MX player's HW+ decoder for these and it works brilliantly.
For your AVIs you'll need to try out the SW decoder, the GPU just can't handle acceleration of them. The specs for the Gnex list that it can only play MP4/H.264/H.263 anyway so it's not a surprise. As long as the Xvid AVIs aren't in HD MX Player's SW decoder should be able to handle them perfectly, that's what I find anyway.
Another option that hasn't got as nice an interface but is very capable is BSPlayer, it also works very well but cannot get around the fact that the GPU can't handle XVID.
