[Q] HD Video Playing on Gingerbread - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all. I recently updated my international Atrix to Gingerbread using the CWM file provided by NFHimself. Unlocked BL and rooted it.
I decided to try the new 1080p video playback with a video captured from youtube through Keepvid but the playback is exactly the same as before update. Wht could be the problem? Probably in the video captured, right?

did you change the setting in the youtube app to play high quality on mobile?

You want to play 1080p o 720p on the Atrix, you search "handbrake converting" on these foruns. Even on GB update, the phone STILL cant play h.264 high profiles.
Sometimes, this makes me regret not waiting 2 months for the S2....

Patience young padawans. Fix your problems cm7 will.

CM7 will allow us to watch high profile x264?

I think its a hardware limitation.
tegra 2 supports h.264 main profile fully but high profile only in 720 6 MB/s

That's what I thought.
People seem to think cm 7 will fix everything.
it's just another rom as far as I know. it may have better hardware support than most and more developed features, though.

Its not that big a deal. You're going to want to reencode anything 720 or 1080 anyway to save on storage. So just use baseline profile whilst you're at it.
I guess though it sucks if you want to use hdmi for a portable media centre

HD Media Playback?

I'm looking for advice on media players for the evo 3D - since I originally hoped it'd be a portable player to match the format compatibility of my HTPC. It looks like I was a little optimistic in that regard, primarily because I knew the chip was 1080P capable. My primary issue with blu-ray rips is that when using MoboPlayer and mVideoPlayer - I can usually get my 720P rips to play back video, but I lose the audio. I'm fairly certain that I'm using the unconverted blu-ray audio - and neither of these apps can handle the codec. Is there another app that can do this without having to convert?
I know how to convert the audio easily - but I was hoping for a drag and drop solution. I don't want to end up with large files for my HTPC and different ones for on-the-go use.
Besides that, 1080P videos would be hampered by Android's (or should I say FAT32's) inability to handle files above 4GB. I'd previously heard rumors that in the future Android would be able to able to access XFAT partitions and that might eliminate the file limitation - but I've heard nothing concrete. Anybody have any useful info on this topic?
I know that a certain amount of readers will ask why this is necessary in a portable device, but a lot of us look at these phones as a digital swiss army knife. To me, there's definitely the allure of potentially bringing just the phone and an HDMI cable to my girlfriend's house in order to share a bluray as opposed to bringing the bluray player, disc, cables, etc.
Well - the only partial solution I've found is the arcMedia media player. It supports a52 (AC3) audio, but unfortunately - the 720P video I threw at it played remarkably choppy. Totally unwatchable.
Doh - I guess I'm talking to myself. But in case someone else is reading this in hopes of a solution, I think I've figured out that MoboPlayer and one other media player I just found - can play the audio if I switch to software decoding. Unfortunately, if I do so - 720P video becomes unwatchable. HTC didn't give us surround sound codecs, which is disappointing.
The only possible solution or workaround would be if the video decoding could be handled separately from audio in one of these media players. But I'm not going to get my hopes up.
In the meantime, I guess I better get used to converting AC3 audio in my MKV's - and making sure none of my portable files are above 4 gigs.

OK - I tried IMPlayer+ and Vitalplayer based on recommendations I found elsewhere and neither worked as I'd hoped. Diceplayer however, appears to have done the trick! It's a $5 app, but I'm going to try it for 3 days and test it out first. Thank you very much for the recommendation.
The dev who wrote that software claims the Galaxy S2 is capable of 1080P MKV playback with AC3 audio. I'm going to see if I can track down a similar sample under 4 gigs to test on the Evo 3D. As of now - 720P is working beautifully.
Now there's just two more things that I'm hoping will happen to make this the perfect mobile HD video player:
1) Android somehow allowing a format that accepts files above 4gigs.
2) Actually being able to output 1080P to an external screen via HDMI. I'm sure we'll be able to HDMI mirror the screen, but the file's resolution will be lost in that case. Hopefully Diceplayer or another app will enable HD out.
I'm not holding my breath for either, but I can hope.
Just a couple thoughts. I encode all my videos to .mp4, at their native resolution (1080p for bd, or eve res for dvds). Using a bitrate between 1500-2000 will get u under 2GB for an entire movie and maintain video quality to near original.
As much as I'd like 5.1 surround sound, that really only matters if u can output it via hdmi. In ur case I understand the desire bc u have other media players.
I agree, HTC/android should include support for 5.1 audio, and additionally I feel .Mkv support

Thanks for the comments! I just figured I'd chime in because I tried a Conan the Barbarian Trailer that was a 1080P MKV with AC3 audio.
Unfortunately, it didn't play smooth even with Diceplayer. Every 3 seconds, there was a little stutter. Which was disappointing, but understandable. I wonder if the Galaxy S2 can really play it better?
Otherwise, the E3D might get to that capability by a little overclocking and/or improved software in the future.

update your diceplayer 1.4.2
Try QQ Player..
Sent from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk
QQ player doesn't play the file well at all - it appears not to use any hardware acceleration.
Unfortunately - the Diceplayer Trial Update (1.4.2) doesn't appear to improve things.
Someone who'd overclocked his E3D to 1.5ghz tested this file and STILL found it lagging on Diceplayer. Which is very disappointing. If anyone's curious, this is the sample I'm talking about:
http://www.movie-list.com/forum/showthread.php?t=27232
I was just hoping to get 1080P AC3 MKV playback.
I was just told on another thread that this 1080P file may not play well - only because of the speed of my card. This user claims that his phone with a class 10 microsdhc plays the Conan clip without lag. Apparently my phone (with the stock class 4) must not be able to create enough of a buffer to make up for the memory card's speed. I've got a class 10 memory card arriving tomorrow - and I'll report back then.
This is potentially great news.
I'm not sure if the new memory card played a role - but the latest version of Diceplayer 1.4.4 plays that 1080P MKV with AC3 audio with NO lag on the Evo 3D. I'm pretty happy right now. The only thing I'm hoping for in the future is that somehow we can play files over 4gb so we can actually take advantage of the 1080P capability of this phone.

Choppy video playback

So I picked up my tablet today and started fooling around with it installing apps etc. I read that this tablet has support for .mkv video files so I tried a couple of those but noticed that the playback was very choppy. I then tried converting a few into .mp4 which didn't seem to help much because those were also quite choppy.
Had anybody else experienced this? Are there any solutions for fixing this?
Thanks.

I'm assuming you're using stock video player, right? Why don't you try e.g. MX Video Player and then experiment with software / hardware decoding options? Since I've been using it I've seen no more stutters in video. The app is free.
I've downloaded 720P film 4gb and it plays smooth on stock and Diceplayer. I think it's the way it's encoded. But your best choice is to buy Diceplayer that uses hardware acceleration its totally worth it and its constantly updated...

I tried diceplayer but it didn't make a difference. How are you encoding the video?
I noticed that it's smooth when the video is 720p, but it lags when it's 1080p. I thought it could support 1080p video?

Now why would you play 1080p on screen that does not support it? It is hd screen but not full hd.
720p will be easily playable up to 600Kbits.
I downloaded (from a dodgy source if you know what I mean) Indiana Jones and somehow i cannot play it its only 2GB, whereas 4gb pirates of the Caribbean runs smoothly even on stock player.

Because it rescales the video and depending on the codecs and bit rates it can run just fine. Same reason why I play 720p on my Captivate. Because I can and it looks great and fits the screen nice.

Last i checked this tablet is supposed to playback 1080p videos no problem.
Another video thread and more confused people.
The Tegra 2 is NOT capable of playing most HD video. The video accelerator which decodes the stream (this is separate from the GPU) is too slow to decode most HD video.
People need to understand the encoding profiles to understand why. The Tegra 2 is only capable of decoding 1080p stream ONLY if the video was encoding using Baseline setting profile. The problem is NOBODY uses Baseline profile to encode h.264 video because its obsolete and offers poor compression.
So what do we have left? We have Main profile and High profile.
Tegra 2 can only decode 720p Main profile at LOW bitrate only. If the video is encoded with Main profile over 4mb/s bitrate you are out of luck as the Tegra 2 is simply too slow to decode it. You can forget High profile encoded video unless its encoded in super low bitrate.
So what the problem? The problem is NOBODY encodes in Baseline profile.
You have to understand Tegra 2 is a VERY old chip. Almost 2 years old now and the GPU and video accelerator is the same as the ANCIENT Tegra 1 from about 3 years ago.
The moral of the story is Tegra 2 is NOT fast enough to decode most of todays HD videos. The best you can do is re-encode the videos you want in Baseline profile. Ya, what a PITA....Thank Tegra 2 for that.

Oh god more troll nonsense, listen at the end of the day we have a fantastic tablet that plays back most everything ive thrown at it using the stock player and dice/mxplayer. Bottom line these devices are not designed to replace a media center, they are portable devices that are designed for convenience, and i think the Tegra2 is a fantastic chipset. The screen itself is 720p, there is no reason to be watching 1080p video on the device. It will give you a slightly sharper picture assuming the internal scaler is effective but nothing more. I dont know what this guy is talking about the tegra2 being an old chip, its probably the most advanced CPU/GPU combination on the market, considering we have 100's of people in the dev community continually finding ways to push every bit of power out of it beyond stock.
Stop trolling threads dude, people want answers not smart ass speculation.

I am sorry but your post offer no useful information. I checked the Limitless movie and its only encoded at 1840 Kbps. Thats pretty low bitrate and as I stated the tegra 2 can play that back in Baseline or Main. If that movie was encoded at 5mbps Main profile it would choke the tegra 2.
If you transfer files from a MAC with kies for MacOS then it corrupts videos and photos (it is a known problem).

[VIDEO] Encoding settings for H264 video playback @ 1080p

When I started using my Droid X2 I notice I could not play most of my MP4 files with hardware decoding. (I use MX Video Player which clearly shows you if it is hardware decode.) Using software, the phone is not fast enough to play back 720p or higher.... Even the Droid X had better hardware support as it could play back most of my 480p MP4 files in hardware.
I know the DX2 can play back its own 720p/30fps video files flawlessly and in hardware, so there had to be something going on.
So I dug into what's going on and it turns out the Tegra 2 has a pretty bad video decoder in it. (Thanks for nothing NVidia......) Even the old Hummingbird single core chip in the Galaxy S can do much better!
What I have found is on our phone we can only playback video using the Baseline profile. This is the worst quality profile and pretty much everything out there uses High Profile. (And sometimes Main profile.) Baseline is the easiest to encode and decode -- but really it's not used much anymore because of how inefficient it is with bitrate. (Meaning lower quality in comparison)
As a test I converted some 1080p content to various profiles to test it out ... and then did it again at 720p and then 540p. (The native phone resolution.)
All I could get to play on my phone in hardware was video encoded with baseline.
Now, what was interesting is I created a 1080p/24fps baseline file at about 7.5mbps and the phone had zero problems playing that, even that that high bitrate! Very surprising there....
Now, I created two files -- one using High Profile and the other Baseline profile -- both at the same bitrate so they are both identically sized -- and the quality difference is quite noticeable when playing through VLC on my computer. The Baseline is much more smudgy during lots of movement.... Sucks
NOW, realistically if you only watch video on your phone's screen, then encode at 960x540 and use baseline and it will look really good.
If you connect HDMI, though, then the hardware decoder will send the video to the TV at full resolution (up to 1080p) but then the quality difference really becomes noticeable.
It's a shame really .... This TI OMAP CPU in the Bionic/Droid 3 does not have this problem ... but all Tegra 2 devices like the Galaxy Tab 10.1 and so on have the same issue as the Droid X2.
(Although it does appear the newest 3.1 update on the Tegra 2 tablets allows high profile 720p not, I tried it on our phone and it does not work. Not even 540p at high works.) We are using a lower slightly lower end version of Tegra 2 versus the tablets so that might be the difference.
Attached is the Baseline profile settings to use for Handbrake for our phone.
This is why my computers only rock AMD.
could the latest update have done anything? I would really like some higher res movies with out having to go through all the hassle, cause I have no idea how to do all that with baseline and everything lol

Very doubtfully no, since its really a hardware issue.
Re-encoding is generally pretty simple, especially if someone gives you the right profile/settings you need, as he did above. Grab Handbrake, check his settings, and give it a shot with a short video file. The worst part is the length it can take to transcode something, which is mostly dependant on your CPU.
Thanks for the info man, was going to play around with this when i first noticed it but never had time and forgot about it. I'll be lazy and keep the old Archos 5 going with component out video lol, doesn't look too great, but 120GB and great battery life will help.

I definitely will try that, and the reason I asked was cause at the bottom he sounded unsure that it was a hardware problem... so I thought why not ask lol no harm no foul right?
in my completely n00b opinion if we are using a slightly lower tegra2 than the ones in the tablets it would seem that we wouldn't have such different results. I would think that if we are using slightly lower processors we would get slightly lower results. However I know very little about what I am talking about so I could completely be off base
This phone just keeps getting better and better.
To topic greater what derision of android were you using and what rom? Cause I found that on 2.3.3 using eclipse 0.2.2 I had next to no problems playing any 720p video files using hardware. They were h264 in mkv. Just.get mobo video player and its codec pack. If you trying to watch anime download mkv ripper to rip the subs out so you can still.use hardware. Yes software support make it skips but i rarely need to use software. At least on my dx2. And using software support on 480p runs with out any problems.
Mobo player is the best video player out for android use that instead I tried mx player and it was quite crap. Your.playback of video files depends on the video player itself as well as the phone. And in hardware 720p runs just fine on mobo with very little hickups for.fast.pace action scenes and I know I'm not on baseline.

1080p HD Video Playback (mkv) and Flash(HD youtube) Performances

I am trying to decide between the International Note or the Att note (both being equal in price). My biggest concern is the video playback in browser (HD 1080p flash video) and 720/1080p mkv videos (using stock or 3rd party players). I found that there are some reports of choppiness with the ATT note in the "Att note vs International Note review" thread. How true is this? And is it still true after overclocking?
LTE is not very impt, but definitely a plus since my area is LTE ready. Biggest thing is video playback and web browsing experience(especially in flash heavy websites). I actually find my Tegra 3 Asus Prime to be less smooth than my current galaxy s2 smartphone (can be a resolution thing..).
I had the HP Touchpad before with the same snapdragon processor as the att note and it was pretty terrible at playing the type of files I wanted smoothly (ESPECIALLY IN BROSWER). That was using Webos, so it can be a different story here.
720p mkv play perfectly - no re-encoding required - but you are apparently still constrained by the 4GB limit, so full length movies are not possible in many cases.
TV shows average about 1.2 gig so its most useful for those.
If we ever get ICS, I assume the 4gb limit will no longer apply, only you will have to transfer files via wifi or use a card reader and transfer directly to the SD card - the retarded samsung/MS USB file transfer protocols still fail at 4gb even if the device can store larger files.
I have this problem with my galaxy tab 10.1 I can play re-encoded mp4 much larger than 4gb but they have to be transferred by wifi. I assume the same problem will exist with the note under ICS.
Edit: Apparently NTFS formatting of the SD card has been attempted, don't know if it is an effective solution to 4gb limit, haven't tried it myself: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/galaxy-note-can-now-format-sd-card-to-ntfs-file-system/
Thanks, what about 1080p flash in browser? My Galaxy s2 can do this on youtube without a problem (and on engadget), but I'm wondering if it's possible with the galaxy note att. I am sure the international version will fair fine.
Yes, works with stock browser.
Tried Dark Knight 1080p trailer - plays fine.
NVIDA Pure Video 1080p test - plays fine.
Sharp Aquous Full HD 1080p test - plays fine.
1080p 30 fps 17Mbps HD Test Footage by DizzyDougTV - Plays fine
All were tested using LTE not wifi

Since the Note's screen is 800x1200, and one typically watches videos on the phone "sideways", there's no real benefit of watching video above 720p; the phone can only go up to 800p "sideways". Not only that, but because the screen is so small you likely won't be able to tell the difference in videos at resolutions higher than DVD-quality (i.e. 480p) anyway.
As for poor playback performance, I've watched a couple of YouTube videos in HQ and I find that there is the odd minor stutter here and there, but nothing to serious. I'm not sure how much of that is the result of network latency, though.
I've played DVD-quality videos (480p) -- copied onto the device memory; not streamed online -- with absolutely no issues whatsoever.
I've also played 720p and 1080p videos which were copied directly on to the device. There is occasionally a frame dropped here and there (most people wouldn't notice, but I'm pretty sensitive to that after years of messing around with video on computers) but I would say they play perfectly fine, also.
From my understanding, the newer I717 has more CPU horsepower and a GPU that is a little more than twice as fast. I would imagine this would make it better at playing videos than the older N7000 (i.e. international version).

True, but he might want to output the video to a higher resolution display - I assume this thing has some sort of HDMI adapter.
Just my opinion, but 720p looks sharper than DVD quality to me even on a 5.3 inch display, though, granted, the difference is small.
Tried several MKV movies in 1080p (had to chop them up into smaller MKV size)..
Smooth as butter with Dice Player
I should also mention that you would want a player that will leverage Hardware Decoding..
Tried turning this feature off in Dice Player for 1080p playback, and sure enough, it was choppy.

Ok listen now
1.This phone CANT play HD video cuz the processor DONT support HD resolution...No way to play it
2.Processor can record 720pix video but the phone cant play it so from HTC will not allow to record HD vide on this device.
I dont know why HTC make that , maybe is just a trick to buy HTC one x other high price device.(SG S3 mini have 1GB Ram,5 mpix camera - Record on 720pix+Front camera and is on the same price- SG3 mini i think is equivalent to Desire X.)

But other phones with lower spec and price like HTC one v can record and play hd videos(which has only 1.2 GHz single core processor & 512 mb ram against 1ghz dual core s4 play processor & 768 mb ram of HTC desire x)
My doubt is that, desire x was able 2 play hd videos of high bit rate in mxplayer but with some lag(in ICS), Does the playback of hd video is smooth( ie without any lag) in its new firmware update to JELLYBEAN.
I was w8ting so excided about jb cuz i think i can play hd but... :/ And full sence...

no I don't think so. And it doesn't make sense as our screen resolution is 480p.

He wants to watch videos recorded on another phone, encoded at 720p so it makes sense. Op maybe try it yourself, install the ota jelly bean Rom on the forum. I'm staying stock for now, working on app development, yawn!

You're right dear, but I was taking with respect to HTC . as being a manufacturer, it doesn't make sense for them to add such support. I don't know any HTC phone of 800x480 resolution in which stock kernel supports 720p playback. It is always the xda devs which layer on added such features to kernels.

Sorry misread your post! Totally agree that this forum consistently outperforms against HTC's own software!

My last phone was Desire S who has stock ROM (RUU downloaded from HTCdev) and it records video at 720p and it has 800x480. Now my wife is using the phone and video clips recorded at 720p on Desire S ARE NOT played on my DX!
I tried MX Player and it plays that videos without lag... For me is OK! I didn't tried other movies, videos on other resolutions and so on because I don't have time for that...

You are right man desire s was nt provided with an option to record 720p videos initially but after a firmware update it did record 720p videos
And what the other guy neXus PRIME saying is absolutely meaningless - WVGA htc phones cant play 720p-OH MY HOLY ****

You completely missed the point of nexus post. I did too, it's an honest mistake. Except you have a bad attitude. This will put great contributors like Nexus off this forum.
Don't do it. Cop on to yourself.
