Tried playing a Quicktime video on my Galaxy S2 (stock ROM KF3 and stock player)
The result: the video plays smoothly, except there is no audio.
The file codecs are:
audio: MPEG AAC Audio (mp4a)
video: H264- MPEG-4 AVC (part10) (avc1)
These are the videos I tried: http://www.animusic.com/downloads/index.php
How can I play these videos correctly? preferably using the stock video player, but if I need to use a different one let me know.
Hmm try "Diceplayer"(trial or paid) and or "Moboplayer"(free) both have decent software decoding. Can utilize native decoding also.
Yes, Dice play it correctly, thanks.
Is there a way to install additional codecs or something like that to allow the stock player to play it?
Nope, that's not possible.
Does anyone know if the stock video player can playback AC3 audio in the MP4 container? I got some MKV movies that I extracted into h.264 and AC3 files then placed them in an MP4 container. I didn't want to encode the audio down to 2 channel AAC, but I don't know if the Galaxy Tab can play AC3 in MP4 container. Don't have my Tab with me at the moment to test it.
Sometimes MP4 files with AC3 audio cannot be played well[/URL]. To solve this issue, I know a quite nice way. It can help can convert various video to MP4 video with AAC stereo (2 channels), MP4 video with AAC 5.1(6 channels), MP4 video with AC3 stereo and MP4 video with AC3 5.1. In addition, it can convert various format video to AVI with MP3 or AC3 5.1, MKV with AAC or AC3 5.1 audio, MOV with AAC 5.1 audio, MPEG-2 with AC3 audio as well as convert video and audio to audio only AC3 5.1, AAC 5.1, AIFF 5.1 and WAV 5.1.
The versatile video converter presets ready playback video for many devices like Apple TV, PS3, iPod, iPad, iPhone, Zune and more. So you can enjoy movies with excellent video and audio quality on your devices wherever you like.
To find it, google search "step by step guide on how to convert and play MTS/VOB/MKV and more video to MP4 AC3 5.1".
Hi,
I wanted to play a video recorded by SGS2 in .mp4 format, but it looks like nothing out there can support it. It plays without any problems on the phone, but VLC, WMP and even WinAmp can't recognize the codec used. My question is - what is the video codec and is there anything that can play/convert it?
The *.MP4 file is a wrapper that binds both the video and audio + subtitles file.
Depending on the resolution, it can also be a *.3GP file.
*.MP4 usually uses H.264 video compression and AAC for audio format.
*.3GP stores video streams of H.263 or AVC/H.264 format, and AMR audio format.
In Windows 7, H.264 is supported without requiring to install any codecs.
3GP however is not supported in Windows 7.
If you are using Windows XP, you not only need the H.264 codec, you also need a MP4 splitter. As for 3GP, you need a codec for that as well.
Haali Media Splitter is useful for both MP4 and MKV files as a splitter.
FFDShow is a great all in one codec package for H.264, x.264, H.263.

Video codec: H264 MPEG4 (AVC)
Audio codec: MPEG AAC (mp4a)
I have no problem to play my mp4 files recorded by using my SGS2 with VLC.
Maybe you should check for an update of your VLC media player.

Does anyone know what codecs and audio bitrates are supported by this device?
I'm having a heck of a time getting some videos to have sound whatsoever. I continue to re-encode the audio but still haven't gotten sound.
I know that it supports lots of containers (AVI, MKV, MP4, etc.), but I cannot find specifics on what video codecs and audio codecs/bit-rates are supported for playback.
Any input is appreciated.
I copy directly from the Prime Manual.

Each player also uses their own codec, that's the thing about Android.
You can also contact the player maker, and let them know of your problem and ask them for implmenting codec or other.
With Mx video player you can set it up to play audio via software while the video plays through hardware. You should rarely ever need to encode when using that player.
Do your videos have sound when played back on the PC?
I guess to MX video player it is very good.

Since I got my prime (Jan) it has always played MKV files (mostly at 720p) well using either Diceplayer or BSPlayer. It was recently RMA'd and after having had to re upload the apps MKVs are problematic. On BSPlayer there is a significant audio lag and Diceplayer won't play MKV files at all. I've also uploaded MXplayer and that plays the files but without audio. The stock player also plays the files without audio. Other files, e.g., mp4 720p seem to play fine. Any thoughts out there as to what may be wrong?

For the audio issue, that might be caused by trying to play DTS audio. DTS codec has been removed from DICE & MX Player.
You can try using a custom codec with DTS enabled, see here.

I'm pretty sure they are all straight DD tracks...?
One thing I have noted is that if I click on the audio icon in MX player then the audio option radio button comes up as unchecked - if I try to check it then nothing seems to happen...
Also tried Rock and Mobo - no MKV audio, yet fine for other file formats.

Have been through pretty much the whole playstore - only vplayer and qqplayer gave any audio, but both had really choppy video playback. What's up?!
safest bet as of right now is to convert everything to mp4....I loaded 32 gigs of different format movies for a week-long vacation and when I got on the plane every video player i tried played everything really choppy and slow...I had one mp4 on the sd card & that played perfectly....I tried the stock player, mizuu and mx...all failed miserably....and I was pissed....
