[Q] unable to play mkv in mx, but stock player plays some? - Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti

This is driving me nuts, got the 8 as an anime player since the tegra processor in the nexus played mkvs well, thought this would too. Nope, mxplayer errors outon all videos, and what is odd is the stock video player plays half of them but not all. It isnt an issue with 10bit, as it will play a 10bit cile I have but some older ones it only will play a few of them. How would I go about finding the cause and fixin it?

Try change to s/w decoder not sure if you have tried it, its default setting is h/w

For some reason h/w mode gives problems on almost all my videos. Weird glitches like audio and video being WAY out of sync and s/w mode fixes all that.

I use the archos player no issues so far with any videos.

Best video player for high definition videos

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.

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.

Best video player

What do you guys use?
I'm looking to buy one, but can't really decide on which one to buy.
Dice player.
I like mx player. It was included with remics ROM, and it grew on me. It's not compatible with JB yet though.
Edit: The 1.6 update added support for JB. Seems like there are good developers working on it.
It is now

MX Player has been flawless for me so far, and swiping for volume & brightness is very convenient.

Dice player sucks they removed dts in the last update. Right bsplayer is the best one plays mkv files just fine

Another vote for MX Player.
I use BS Player. Even allows you to stream off your network through the player itself

Is MX player support HW Acceleration for our GNEX?
I tried playing a 720p MKV on it and it was very stuttering...
Vplayer or VLC

Dice Player! MX player plays many files in software mode on galaxy nexus.

It does support HW Acceleration on GNex and never had problems with shuttering so far, but then again i don't watch long movies and big files. Mostly watch anime on it.

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?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
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.

[Q] Freeze while playing video

Hi all,
I just changed my tab 7.7 for the Note 8, but I'm quite disappointed. Using the same video player (MX Player) the video freeze, or many square appear. Everytime I have to reboot my tablet before watching movie, even task killers doesn't help...
My tablet run stock ROM, I only rooted it.
Does somebody have the same issue?

Why mx player? The default video player parts most files well.
In mx player try HW decoding
Sent from my GT-N5100 using Tapatalk 2
Have you tried BS player? I've not had any issues with that and I think it's better then mx. What file types are you having issues with?
Sent from my GT-N5110 using xda app-developers app
Thank you, I think the stock player can do it very well but I don't know I was use to MX Player.
I activated HW decoder, it's much better now.
Thank you for you help
