[Q] No subs in .mkv, but I can see subs in .avi - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Why is that? Is it because the file is softsubed instead of hardsubed? Can the default player in Galaxy S II play .srt files? Thanks.

not sure if the stock player can play .srt since i have any mkvs like that
but if stock don't want to, try either Mobo player or MX player ( the last update on the later is really nice with our SGS2).

Stock player plays .srt but you have to have it extract under the same name as the video file. Beside stock you could try Mx player, it's pretty amazing compared to stock.

just try another player..
like rock player..

Thanks guys! )

mvideoplayer is a great player and plays .srt files. I used to have this player and the only think made me change was that i bought the mhl cable to export the video through hdmi to my tv set and it couldn't display tha subs into the tv. Finally the solution to both was bsplayer. I hope i could answer your question and solve your problem.

The new VLC player for Android?

When is it available? I can't find the right player what handles all the streaming formats from mp3 till Windows Media Player files (asx, wma, mms://) etc. Something like the TCPMP player or Core Player for Windows Mobile.
VLC - when its done
I dont know exactly what formats mplayer supports but you could give it a try
Give "Rock player" a try. It plays everything I have.

i 2nd rock player. not a video format ive throwin its way it hasnt played
Rock Player is good. But VLC Stream and Convert already works. You can easily setup a VPN at home if you have trouble and it works flawlessly. Only challenge is transcoding Real Media files which are usually a ***** and quite rare anyway.
Meridian is decent
available beta
A beta of the vlc player is now available.

Rock player and Mobo player.

ps: rock player and mobo is all you need.

Not sure if it'll work, but MoBo Player + codecs have been working good for me
as stated above moboplayer is great. make sure its moboplayer, no spaces. the other ones a knockoff. i used to love mobo until i came across mx player
Mxvideo player is also a good bet. Whilst I am not sure if mobo has more codec support than mx or has ones that are missing from mx, I do know mx has ones mobo is missing,
Mx video player
I'm using MX Video Player 1.5
thanks for answers, now i am using mx player

Give Mobo Player a shot.. you wont regret it
MoboPlayer is great ,and is one of the most downloaded apps ,so give it a shot
I have been using Mobo player and i like it
MoboPlayer is the best video player
+Mobo player, can play almost all video formats, though I have already got a giveaway edition of aneesoft video converter for my video conversions.
Mx player
MX player has 3 modes of rendering, HW, SW and SW fast..
I'm not sure about MOBO though..will give it a shot and post!!
Mobo player is the best
mx video player is great but make sure while you play 720P video,codecs for your device are installed
And proper codec should be installed according to your deevice like ARMv7 if you have Xperia Mini Pro

MX video player is the best for me. I've also tried Rock player, but I like MX more. The only negative point is that MX has ads in the free version, but it's not really disturbing)
mx video works great for me...
I'll try mobo video player. I had a problem with Mx video player, i have class 10 8gb SDcard but when I watching m720p movie I think it's not fluent.
I'm using something called QQ player, I think, but I'll check out Mobo.
Mobo player for sure

Movie playback

The Rezound plays my MP4 Movies great. Tried playing a Movie in AVI format and the stock player will not have it. I downloaded another video player from the Market and the Movie does play nearly as sharp as the stock player does with the MP4 Movies. Any Ideas? Is there a way of using the stock player with AVI??
Vinny
Maybe the format of the AVI is not comparable to the MP4 you played?
Have you tried MX Video Player? You didn't mention which player you tried.
go here...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1533389
it's actually best to just convert everything to mp4
Thanks for the imfo.
I use mobo player for everything else.. avi's (Divx/xvid's....etc.)
fantastic... the language is a little lost in translation but the app works wonderfully and has a nice interface for scanning/seeking and volume control while watching a video.
mobo is ok but I'm another who prefers mx player
Try diceplayer.
You can play 1080p+DTS/AC3/AAC MKV/AVI files with Full HW Acceleration.
and dice has SMB/FTP/HTTP support, you can play over 4GB files from PC and NAS.
Great info guys, thanks again. Checking them all out. Amazing the choices available.

[Q] HD movies on PRime

Hi
i have use mx player for a while on my tablet.
but since they removed the DTS audio codec i have switched to vplayer
but my issue on my prime is that when i play for instance an episode of game of thrones or breaking bad on 720p .mkv version it starts ok...
but after a minute... the audio decoder doens't work anymore and it seems like you can hear only the background noise...
i used to have the same problem with mx player, but there i had found an easy option make the audio normal again. I use to switch form hardware <--> software decoding. And then it would be ok.
the odd thing is that this doens't happen with HD movies...
But for the vplayer i haven't found a sollution. Is there anyone who had te same issue?
thanks
I had issues with MX player when trying to play 1080p .mkv files and the best solution i found was to download and use BSPlayer and go into settings and set it to use Hardware decoding (BSEngine).
Never had any issues and 1080p .mkv files play perfectly - even on power save mode

Third! It's what I use!
Tried different formats?
I've only had my TP for a short time and have only tried a couple of movies on it. Not knowing which format was best I chose to rip to MP4 format and it hasn't given me any trouble so far. Is there some advantage to .mkv?
mkv is more of a losless wrapper, better quality, no compression, much larger file than mp4
The thing with Diceplayer or most players doesn't render embedded subtitles. MX Player renders it fine though. So even thought I get artifacts on MX Player when playing 10bit MKV or 1080p MKV animes, I stick with it. Yes I messed with the settings on those other players.
Well I'm getting issues with Dice not wanting to open files with DTS audio. If I open the video through file manager and choose Dice, it'll play the video no problem but no audio. If I try to open inside Dice, it crashes. Vplayer works with audio, but drops frames even if I choose 'hardware acceleration' I'll try mx and see if that works.
EDIT:
Nope, MX won't play the audio either. It at least shows me that their is an audio track, and that the audio is DTS track, but it won't play it. Any suggestions besides transcoding the audio?
i believe it was when MX player got updated to 1.6 that they removed the DTS codec. If you never had problems before they removed the codec and prefer mx player just google MX player apk X.XX and find the version with the codec in it. I would tell you the website to go to, but it's a no no on XDA.

Hey thanks!! Downloaded 1.5a and bam! DTS playback is perfect! Thanks again!
FYI
Dice version 2.0.5 also has DTS intact. You can find it somewhere on google, and plays HD files better in my opinion.
The latest version of MX Player that still supports DTS audio is 1.6f, and for Dice Player it's 2.0.6.
I've heard these versions are incompatible with Jelly Bean, so it looks like we'll have to find a new solution once the update comes out. (likely switching to BS Player)
I've always been an advocate of Dice, and with the majority of my stuff in Xvid or more recently, mp4, all stashed on a server that was smb shared, it worked a treat.
However, I've never been able to get HD mkvs above 720p to play well, and even those had the occasional laggy or jerky moment. I always put that down to network speed, though.
However, I've just tried the latest BS Player and all I can say is wow. It has just played all of my 1080p stuff over the LAN without breaking a sweat.
I am jumping ship. Very recommended.

Video files.

Hi guys,
I have some news to share, if you would call it news XD
Recently, .mkv video files started playing on my player through the stock video player.. And before, it said "Video cannot be played." Weird right? Has anyone experienced the same, video files that are not supported by the player start working all the sudden?
Try with VLC for Android. In PC is the perfect video player...

No, I'm saying .mkv files started to play on the stock video player, which isnt supported..
The "mvk" is just the container of the "real video" (audio + video) and doesn't tell anything about the codec used in audio and video streams.
You can get both audio and video, you can even get only video or only audio and sometimes you get nothing, this is because the stock player can't decode the streams due to codec missing.
Just try a different player. On my PC I use K-Lite Mega Codec Pack and on android I found MX Player truly complete, so i'd suggest this.
