[Q] what to play AVIs with instead of rockplayer?

i have an old copy of rockplayer which (now that i'm trying to use it) wants to be activeted for free playback - it can't activate so is useless.
anything else that can play avis? re-encoding isn't an option

I use arc media player.

using vplayer as of yest
arc media wouldnt open any files. even mp4s that the stock media player would. weird.

moboplayer its not in marketplace http://moboplayer.com/moboplayer_en.html

QQplayer is also worth a look, auto scans your SD, and only presents you with video files to play, also saves your position on multiple files, so resuming playback, even across multiple videos, is easy.

Rockplayer is the fastest player with the best neon optimizations support as far as I know but now I'm not so sure anymore since I've read about Moboplayer... I definitely gotta give it a try, thank you infamous6622 for the tip

i'm using vPlayer too - not had any issues with it so far

vplayer only found 2 of the 5 videos on my card. when i tried to get it to rescan, it crashed! Am currently trying meridian, seems ok at the moment.

Zimly is an awesome Player!!

Another vote for QQplayer, it also does not need any special permissions whereas if you care to look at Zimly it wants to
"read phone state and identity
Allows the application to access the phone features of the device. An application with this permission can determine the phone number and serial number of this phone, whether a call is active, the number that call is connected to and the like."
as well as
"change Wi-Fi state
Allows an application to connect to and disconnect from Wi-Fi access points, and to make changes to configured Wi-Fi networks."
Call me a cynic but without knowing any more details of the above there's no way I'd install Zimly.

i just used es file explorer then selected the vid and it opened in vplayer.
dont think i've ever actually opened vplayer as an app in itself

Vote for vplayer. It's fast and plays
quite everything.

Cross fade and pause

Like many of you, I am a avid iPhone hater. The iOS software does have one cool feature that would be cool if the devs......thank you for all your hard work btw..... Could bake something into a rom. It is on all apple devices, say you are rocking out to your music with friends and you want to here something on YouTube. Apple software it automatically mutes what you were listening to and starts play the the new audio app you have selected. Just a suggestion, I have very basic programming knowledge so i am not much help, but I think everyone would appreciate this mod.
Thanks,

Well I just played something in double twist, then went to YouTube, and when the video started playing it paused my music, closed YouTube, went back to DT, and hit play. It picked up where I left off.

Plus 10 it gives you the option to enable/disable

Unfortunately the music apps i use include YouTube, I heart radio, tune in radio, stock music player, and subsonic and that feature does not work with any of those apps. So I guess it's just not a widely popular idea so far.

I know Pandora does this too. It's all about the apps used, not the ROM.

Even youtube leaves off where u where when u switch to another app or press home and return to youtube

Samsung Music Player

Regarding music player, I just got used to using Google Music on GN, but with GS3, I have come to like Sammy Music Player
I love the Music Square, once I figured the music needed to be on the phone, and I needed to reload the music.
BUt I like to use genres when making playlists. I don't see them. are they there , is there a way to do it
I know there are tons of music players out there. But this gets lots of great reviews, the equalizer works etc
Is there one that MOST people agree is in the top 1 0r 2 Or is this one now one of those
Thank You

You can setup your tabs in settings. There's a genre tab in there somewhere.

Wow do I feel like a fool
Ill try 2 for 2....for song search, is the only option to drag the slider thru the alphabet?
As far as tagging I see it does that. But album art, how do I get that
I know the other players get it...but
1. Do they keep it? Something I read led me to believe it was just temporary
I am speaking of PowerAmp and PlayerPro. Maybe even WinAmp
All I want is:
Ability to set playlists with genres
Ability to get tags PLUS album art
A decent EQ
Possibly music AND video in one with Video opening full screen
Believe it or not the reviews are right. Samsung did a good job
It can do #1, after u pointed it out.
It can do number 2, waiting on the ART answer
It is said by reviewers to have an awesome EQ
It doesnt play video. But I can use the Video player and It opens FULKY
Doubletwist, Playerpro do not open fully
Thanks Again
Eric.

Can't find this anywhere else, but I'm unable to queue music in the stock music player.
Is this possible, as it is in every other music player I've ever seen?

Nope. It should depend on the Touchwiz framework to run.

There's something called "schnellstartliste" in german. If you long press a song you can add it to that. If you select that from playlists, which should be the first entry, it acts as queue. Maybe that's what you are looking for

This works for individual tracks, but you can't queue an album in the 'quick list'.
You get the option to add to a list and the 'quick list' isn't an option....

you can try poweramp theres a trail version on google play store, its pretty good and has loadsa options, used a couple of different players already and i find poweramp to be the best

I'm using 'cubed'. Good music player but not been tested on the s3 yet, hence can't create playlists.
Can queue tracks and albums though, so not too bad.
I just really liked the stock player and am a bit puzzled why you can't queue stuff properly. It's a deal breaker for me.

Like I said, not in front of it, i am trying to recall...my phone is in the mail, Upgraded to the 32gb

[Q] Resume playback while multi-tasking?

Hello,
I am wondering if someone can please tell me how I can make it so that playback continues when I task to a different app/program? Both for youtube app and internet explorer.
I like to listen to music through youtube. If I need to write a text or do any other task, I don't like how it stops the playback.
Same thing with stock internet browser. I like to stream live sports, stream music, etc. Is there anyway to have playback continue while using a differnt program, such as sms or Gmail?
Cheers,

[Q] Movies app not showing all videos + forced landscape playback

Stock .200 JB. When I record videos there are only displayed in Album but not in the Movies app. It's hard to find a video with all those pictures about. I have 5 videos in the movies app shown, the other 10 are not shown, all new videos are not displayed as well.
I tried clearing the data for Movies but still only loads 5 videos.
Also, when I record a video in portrait I am forced to watch it in landscape, WTF?

Try mxplayer it's much better

Uninstall the damn thing and use another player.

I am not looking for an alternative app, I am looking for a solution to continue using Sony's app.

I know, but that Movies app has a bug. SONY will release a bugless version soon.
