AOSP video playback - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Does anyone know why video playback is choppy on AOSP Roms? I tried the native player, MX player, and a few others and it is very choppy. Is there a solution?

What videos you playing? In MX player, go to settings.. Decoder. Try enabling hw decoding.
I played back youtube videos, from the phone, and video I shot with my DSLR. Plays back fine for me with MX player and the stock gallery video player.

I will try that. Playback works fine on all other Roms except AOSP. Plays back choppy. YouTube is fine. Just downloaded clips seem to be the issue

Jelly bean STOCK video player

Is there any STOCK video player on Gnex 4.1?
Or if there is no stock video player, which one is the best one. I need it only for watching video clips and stuff downloaded fr web, but no movies...
Thanks folx
I thought stock video play was part of stock galaxy apk. I use vplayer on my own devices.
What stock galaxy app? Which one?
Pretty sure he meant gallery. I find going through the native player via gallery I can't play any movies I load on my device.
I personally use mx player, love the swipe controls.

There is a built in video player although the codecs it supports isn't the best. If you need support for many codecs I would suggest either MX player, rock player or dice player.

Yeah the gallery "stock" player is very basic, i think it's more designed for playing the videos, you record with your phone cam, nut much more. Alternatives are as mentioned vlc or rock player.
Btw does anyone know a player with support for more than one audio track?

MX Player, not only that, it also let you choose between hardware or software decoding, which is needed for AC3.

[Q] Can your nexus handle 720p 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

Best MKV Player?

I have already tried MX Player, Moboplayer, and Diceplayer, and all of them seem to lag while playing 720p mkv files. Are there any video players that can play without lag causing the audio and video to go out of sync?
Try mx again and turn audio to software decoding (not hardware). Fixed my sync issues.

I haven't tried it yet, but VLC player may be another option to look into.
If you are in North America, get VLC from here:

Ita still beta but works pretty well from what I've seen.

Thanks for the link. I had sideloaded an outdated VLC Beta a while back since it's the only player that (for me) plays 1080p h/w accelerated with DTS audio outofthebox -- (DicePlayer does too, with a /sdcard/libffmpeg.so plugin) -- and hadn't updated in a while.
you might want to give mVideoPlayer a go as well!

Mkv movies out of sync

Hey guys, I been having some problems playing mkv movies on my phone, I have some 720p mkv movies and most of them don't play good, the audio and videk are out of sync, what could be the problem?

If they are in sync on your computer then the problem is your video player. MX Player plays my 720p vids just fine.
You should try playing the video on one of the following 3 players. Dice player, MX player, and BS player. There are some videos where one would play it better than the other (depending on how the video was encoded). Make sure the video are playing in H/W (hardware mode) not S/W (software mode).

Turn on hardware decoding in mxplayer.

Not to sure if it plays mkv files but you should try MX player!

MX Player hasn't failed me yet. Smooth playback using the software renderer rather than the hardware rendering for some reason though. Anyways, it works very well.

This would be my suggestion as well.
There's also Rockplayer, it's been awhile since I've used it but it did the job well. Has the most used video and audio codecs embeded.
Also, the stock video player will play the mkv files as long as it has the supported audio codec, can't recall the exact one...
