I'm having trouble playing some videos on my phone. They are .mp4 videos and I'm trying to play them in MoboPlayer. The video opens for a second and then closes and I get a message saying the video can't be played and to try soft decoding. When I try soft decoding, the video plays but it's really slow or choppy. Any thoughts about whether it's a codec issue? I can play .wmv files fine. I've tried other players. Could it be an HD issue, the videos are 1080p? I'm running the latest Viper ROM.
Thanks.
Yeah it's the 1080p part. Have you tried MX player though? Wicked sweet player with tons of functions. I would get a file converter n bring it down to 720 honestly.

That worked. Guess I don't need 1080p on a 4" screen

Hi,
I installed LeeDroid and HD Revolution and both roms have slow fps(video seems to freeze) with stock video player and MX Player..
Do you also have this problems?
How can I solve... With stock firmware it doesn't happen..
I also tried to reverto to stock rom with RUU but it says that I have downloaded the wrong version... any suggestions?
You should try Dice Player. Make sure hardware acceleration is on. Dice Player is the only player that let my old One X play an .mkv video with 1080p h.264 level 5.1 high profile 40Mbps (an insane bitrate). Btw, I used to run Insertcoin on my One X. Btw, MX cannot force HW acceleration on videos, so if a video is in unsupported format, it will resort to software mode (which burns battery much faster).
If this doesn't help, you can always play around with different kernels. Some kernels are better than other with video playback.

No success..same thing
Since you said stock firmware doesn't have this problem, why don't you try flashing the stock kernel?

Hi.
Problem is with HQ videos (movies etc).
Mostly HD videos have NOT the sound (experienced with MX Player, default 4.0.3. & 4.1.1 version players). Playing them with VPlayer (paid version) it force closes sometimes without any notification or something. Probably force closes because of RAM (not ROM).
BUT videos which haven't sound playing on other video players have sound on VPlayer.
The issue is on any ROM.
Please help me if you know the answer.. Thanks anyway
have a nice day..

nah, for me mostly without sound. but I prefer it the most. maybe something wrong is with my phone after rooting? cause before it worked incredibly smooth and good.. and then BOOOOOM! your videos will work only without sound.. cool >.<
what could be the problem?
oh. some time ago I installed VolumePlus..? and I had it wanted to change one file in system files.. maybe that's the problem? but I don't know how to solve it :s

Did you try using the S/W or S/W (fast mode) codec other than the default H/W codec? It's located on the top right and me and my brother have been using MX Player Pro and we play MKV files all the time.
(just dropping by on HoX section to check my brother's thread)

of course. anyway it isn't working.
p.s. just found out that the issue isn't only with HQ videos but with several formats..
yesterday watched a HQ video on MX Player and it worked. Now tried different video on MX Player, and again. There's no sound.
With VPlayer the sound is always but the player uses (probably) too much resources so it's force closes. Or VPlayer is stupid (hate paid apps that fails)
p.s.s. Just changed the sound_effects.conf file from system files (/etc) to the original one. Anyway it's not working.

Just found out that MX Player doesn't play sound for the videos that H/Q Decoder is NOT supported. How can I run them on MX Player with sound cause S/W player and S/W (fastmode) have NOT the sound ;(
and I don't want to use that freaking $#@$^ #@%$# @ %^ &#@* [email protected]%#^! VPlayer (+paid version).. (hate the refund policy)
Anybody have the same issue with H/Q Decoder for several videos?

As above. I am running AOKP ROM and Franco kernel. Did not OC. 720p videos will go out of sync with the audio. Some of the videos will also stutter a little.
Anyone managed a smooth playing 720p?

i can even stream them thorugh youtube (stock/stock btw)
Try BSPlayer Free.
+1 BSPlayer Free - I am able to play full 1080p mkv's and even some 1080p m2ts vids with it. Some of those have issues on MX Player but the sound output from MX seems to be better. Haven't had issues with vids yet on BSPlayer though.
ive had no problems with mobo player and 720p videos.
I was using MX player and watching HD anime rips.
Maybe I give BS player a go and see.
YouTube HQ works fine. Its just the HD mkvs

doesn't make sense, he said it does so with every video
Try using ' MX Player ' or ' Mobo Player ' they both have hardware and software support, you could alternate.
I have problems running some movies. Videos are played slowly. I've installed the MX player but the videos are played slowly.
What do I do?!

Every video? it's weird, can you write properties one of your video? I mean resolution, bitrate etc, maybe this videos have too good quality like for Gio.
Kinda strange, if the ROM has working libstagefright.
