Video quality?

How good quality video playback can the Arc (S) handle?
in mp4, h.264 and ffmpeg?
I am thinking max bitrate for video/audio.
all the above,ffmpeg im not sure
hd mate,what can it be?surely 720
from the ARC
Very good quality just like every other high end device. Although Arc doesn't support avi or mkv files but you can play em with Rockplayer.
Very good, just like any other devices that capture [email protected]
last video I recorded was:
Audio:128kb/s
Video:6000kb/s (aprox, can go higher)

Unable to play 4K Videos on my Mobile!!!!

LG G4
Tried playing 4K video on my G4 and it could not handle it... only sound kept coming... *.mkv format is what I tried.
INstalled MX Player with Customer DTS codec support.. tried all..nothing helped!!!!
Please provide some help and I downloaded videos from Youtube 4K Resolution ones...
So it sounds like you downloaded a video but you don't have the codecs.
Is this happening with all videos?
I would imagine that you are able to play them just fine on youtube?
I hate to break it to you, but you won't get quicker/better responses based on how much larger you make your text.
Yes 4k does not play and but 2k(1440p) plays fine in ma youtube... But once downloaded cannot play 1440p videos using any player.. tested mx, dice, bs and stock player too
I have found the issue in playing the 4k and 2K videos I downloaded from Youtube.
I downloaded MKV format which was the culprit... 2k and 4k mp4 formats work fine... mkv works only till 1080p.. may be a codec for mkv should be released for ARM V8

I tried 4K video on VLC with enabled Full HW acceleration and without single lag
test video here: http://demo-uhd3d.com/fiche.php?cat=uhd&id=149'
every video with 60+MB/s bandwith (ofc depends on storage speed, on my Samsung 32GB EVO+ even 70MB/s plays without problems) is laggy 10 bit HEVC is not playing H264 works without problems
YT 4K videos works also on VLC...
same problem
Only 4k video with h264 of codec
Maybe it's too late to reply but the fact that LG G4 only supports 4K video in h264 (mp4) format. You should convert the video with your PC (i recommends Handbrake) select 2160p profile and do some edits or you can convert with any software. Make sure the files converted to mp4. The only one reason if you downloaded a 4k youtube video and it can't directly played on G4 is just because youtube codec for 4k isn't h264 as like 1080p or lower but webm.

cannot play downloaded youtube 4k videos smoothly with mx player and default player !

hello all... i m facing a strange lag in my htc m9. currently running Viper one m9 4.3.0. but i have tested with stock rom also , that, i cannot play 4k videos smoothly which i'have downloaded from youtube. i moved that video to my device memory, then opened it with mx player. that video is only playable with mx's SW mode but veryyyyy slowly. both the HW/HW+ mode says "not supported" what can i do to play those 4k videos smoothly in my device? please..T.I.A.
The M9 have an 1080p display, so 4k videos, even 2k videos won't look better than 1080p videos...
You can download the videos at full hd resolution from youtube, you will save space too.
The problem is mxplayer. Because it is downscaling the video from 4k to 1080p on the fly via software it can only convert so much in so little time and that causes it to pause while it converts.
You will find that youtube servers do the bitrate at their end so even if the video says 4k, if you play it via the YouTube app you'll only get the max resolution that your device can handle, in this case 1080p as that is all your device can do.

I don't get it. Why my 3 years old Sony Xperia 1 can support it but new phone like P6P?
Sony Xperia 1 supports HEVC 10bit HDR since its supported by Snapdragon 855 SOC

Try VCL it's much better and supports casting

Fyi the pixel 6 pro plays h265/hevc 10bit/10bit HDR just fine with hardware decoding.
It's h264 10bit which is the issue file type which doesn't play in photos or Mxplayer without software, dunno why you had an issue. We even went and tested multiple files.
H264 10bit is the issue file type which tbf is very niche now and still kinda weird it doesn't work

Mod Edit: Links removed.
This two are sample of X265.10bit.HDR10Plus HEVC and they don't hardware decoding on Mx player. Could you please test it and tell me the result, I don’t know if I setup anything wrong.
edit:​I just update my google photo it work now on photos , but still can't hardware decoding on Mx player.

The World In HDR UHD 4K Demo | 4K Media
The World in HDR in 4K (HDR10). Video Info: Resolution : 3840 x 2160 File size : 308 MB Duration : 00:02:35 Format : MKV Codec : HEVC Overall bit rate : 16.7 Mb/s Bit depth : 10 bits Frame rate : 60 fps

This does hw+ decoding which is hw on mxplayers own framework.
I tried arcane above and hw decoding (not hw+) was support just fine

Thanks, My current first choice is mxplay, followed by VCL. If neither of these two can be decoded by hardware, will find sources in other formats.
