Best video player for high definition videos - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello friends..
I want to know which is the best video player which can play mkv m4v and mp4? I tried player pro, mobo, double twist, and default.. Not evn one player can play those files.. I have 10 tb of hd movies.. Thought to watch them on arc s while sleeping :-D

I use Mobo Player. If a file doesn't play, you can force Software Rendering. That way, it played almost every file I threw at it.

+1 for MX Player

Right now I believe the best player is MX Player's latest edition.

Dice Player is also good, but MX player rocks. It's the only one for me that can play 720p .mkv video files (series mostly).

yup...MX player did the trick..i watched two 1080p movies without any lag..well lil lag in b/w but nothing major Thanks guys for your response

BSPlayer?
Might wanna give BSPlayer a try - very similar to dice and mx but what I like about is that it automatically tries to fetch appropriate subs and that it actually works surprisingly well
Either way u can't really go wrong with these three.

i just watched an AVI movie today using bsplayer lite, it free from market.
The other two players i have installed is Dice and Mobo. I kind of switched based on format.
So far I only watched avi and mkv. Using qqplayer as my primary movie player.

not sure, they all seems to be better for different formats. I have not found a favorite
I know this will sound like a crazy question but, is there any way to convert a movie directly on the phone?
MX Video Player
I use MX Video Player and it plays everything. Drop and drag movies, and play. Simple as that.
It also recognizes .SRT files too!
I also use Mx player. It is awesome. You can swipe to change subtitle time.

MX players seems to be the consensus. Trying it meow
yeah mx movie player is the best I've used so far. No need to convert and I haven't found a format it doesn't play.

diceplayer ftw if you want to watch HD content.
don't know if mx player's been updated since but it would stutter when playing HD videos, prompting me to switch to diceplayer. full hw acceleration and smooth playback of 1080p mkv's.

+1 to DICE Player. Bought it when it was able to buy but the trial version is now a full-completed ad version. Couldn't be happier.
I prefer MP4 because the phone has a hardware decoder. Which probably saves some power.

MX Player doesn't play some of my .divx files for some reason. Moboplayer (and others) play them just fine.

i used mxplayer but switched to diceplayer as it lets you play in pop-out video while checking e-mail etc
BSplayer can play video in "external mode", so everywhere, while you are surfing, reading email etc... and you can resize, pause or clse the video.
MXplayer doesnt provide this feature.

MX is renowned as the best video player in Android

I found Dice WITH the use of an externel ffmpeg lib (nathan118 to be more specific) to be the best one for me (read here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1769799)

I recommend super video the video floats over your current task its also resizable n the best thing about it is its free!!!

DicePlayer is my favourite. Smooth and you can activate Plugins if you need to.

I use BS Player because it read everything well and has a LAN Mode. But the UI is horrible.
My combo: BSplayer (soft decode) for WMV + DICE Player for everything else

Hi guys.
Can you please tell me if your stock video player can read bluray hd movies and ac3 codec audio ?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
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.

[Q] Best video player for the Xperia Play?

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!).
