Whenever i seem to transfer a movie through windows to my tab it gets to 5 seconds remaining, After it has copied the rest and fails. It only seems to do it with files 4/5GB and over.
Has anyone else noticed there and is there a fix?
I tried to wireless send it too through the web sharing app but done exactly the same thing.

Your Tab storage partition is formated in FAT32 system, so the maximum file you can copy on to it is 4GB. And i think that's what causing your problems.
The only way is to re-encode your video with smaller bit rate to get a smaller file size (or split video to multiple files)
Cheers

I have had simular problems when I used a USB extention cord or even the Samsung docking station. Try putting your tablet USB cord directly in to the back of your computer (no extentions or anything else).

Another thought comes to mind. How big are your files? Try converting them in to a Samsung friendly files (I say that because some large 1080p MKV files are huge and don't work well on the Samsung)
I use "AVS Video Convert 8.x" to convert all my videos to:
Video Codec: H.264/AVC

Yep that is indeed what is happening... There is no point in having a movie thats that huge... Most of mine are under 1gb and the look great...

I don't think Android can R/W to NTFS formatted partitions.
Thought FAT32 was Dead
Ran into this thread from the daily recaps and glad I did. I just assumed the Tab was running off NTFS. I thought FAT dies out years ago!
Thanks for the information.
Is there any Custom ROM supports NTFS or EXT3?
[24.09.2011][ROM][3G][P7500][EUR] BroodComb XXKI1 V2 supports NTFS or EXT3/4?
If it is FAT32, how is it possible to transfer 4gig+ files over WIFI?

I just picked up my gtablet yesterday and have been spending my time installing tnt lite and installing several apps. I bought it because when I go on trips I wanted something that could browse the net, and play videos. I installed RockPlayer and put a 720p mkv file onto the machine, however playback is very choppy and its almost like the device cannot handle it. I know that several people have gotten 1080p to work good, and I am wondering if there is a setting that needs to be enabled to make 720p work better? I did some digging and saw that someone said to edit a line in the build.prop file (set the media.stagefright.enable from true to false), but I cannot edit my build.prop file. And I am not entirely sure that this will fix the problem. Are 720p videos playable on this machine?
What profile did you render the movies in? Try changing the MKV extension to AVI... Sometimes some renderers treat containers differently even though they are using the same codecs.
just tried to rename the extension from .mkv to .avi and still same choppiness and eventually the videos stops playing all together. I am not sure what rendering is, but the file is encoded AAC 2.0 H264
h264 is not the issue, it's what profile its encoded in
I have this in my FAQ section (in my sig). h264 is supported, but the Tegra 2 cannot handle h264 encoded in high profile. It can handle main profile.
This is confusing to people. So, what I would recommend is to download the excellent "mediainfo" tool (http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en) and it will show you how your videos are encoded.
As for container support, I think MP4 plays a little better than MKV, but Rockplayer (in the Market) seems to be able to handle MKV and using hardware acceleration. Again, as long as it's h264 main profile.
This is not just an issue with the GTab - all the Tegra 2 devices will have this issue as its a limitation of the chipset, or so I've read. Vega, Folio, even the mysterious Adam will probably have this same limitation.
Reference on h264 and main / high profile: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264/MPEG-4_AVC
Thank you for clarifying. I am wondering can I convert the video to the main profile and then get it to work?

Yeah, that's the tricky part. I haven't been able to figure that out yet, although granted I haven't put much time into it. I think these "profiles" depend on how you encode and which tool you use.
If you try the Tron Legacy trailers, they are 1080p but main profile. A good example of how nice videos can look on it, when encoded the right way.
I have to play around more with something like ffmpeg to see if I can pin this down. Another reason for transcoding is to keep the sizes down, since we have the 4GB FAT32 file size limitation to deal with. Yuk.
I've incoded a 1080p high profile to main. sound was in and out then tryed a few things and lost sound. Video played great anyways.
I guess it depends on the encode. I dl a 720p music video off of youtube, mp4 avc [email protected] (according to mediainfo) and it plays just fine.

Could be a lower screen resolution that full 720p (not all 720p's are alike).
I also read today that Tegra 2 720p should work in high profile, but 1080p definitely does not. But, Android itself might be limiting even 720p, so it's a crap shoot.
Just out of curiosity why do you guys want those big files on here anyway? Is it to output to a TV? I wouldn't think you would need such a high quality file to watch stuff on the G tab.

It's not about storing large files on the gtab...its more about having video portability. I keep my movies and videos on a server that I stream from my living room and bedroom. It would be ideal if I can play files on any device without having to reencode the video.
I did test 1080p files from YouTube and they did not play (high profile).
Ok, makes sense. I do the same thing using upnplay and my server. Thought you were wanting them on the tablet.

A two hour 720p movie runs ~4GB, so it's close to the limit in FAT32. And you could easily go over the limit when encoding, which would require you to break the file up. Annoying.
The problem here is that none of the vendors want to agree on a replacement file system for portable devices (wow, no surprise there). MS wants exFAT, the open source community would prefer EXT3/4, and I assume Apple would prefer HFS+.

Can't speak for everybody else, but for me I'd want to just use the video files I broadcatch from the NNTP groups. Ideally, I wouldn't want to have to reencode video to watch it, just access it directly from my media server. Standard definition avis work okay, but eventually these will not be offered and of course the HD versions look way better. Over the years it's been harder to come by a regular source of SD resolution TV Series feeds. The 720P encoded files quality are noticeable versus SD even on this smaller screen. Ideally we would get high profile 720P MKV at least to work as it seems this is what the guys doing NNTP TV Series seem to be encoding in.
What I would see happening is that a video player on the GTablet will access the files off the media server and stream, not play files directly off the local Internal SD. Regardless of where the file resides, it looks like it needs to be refined to play these files more fluidly.
I'm not saying this will be the only nor primary method of viewing video files, but having the flexibility and option is always nice. Especially when all the tvs are watching something else. ;P

Can you please share how you are thinking about doing that using movies/pictures/videos on Windows Media Center share or NFS mount.
I tried very same thing as some of my movies still in vob format or mpeg2 (home recordings of kids), tv recordings using microsoft format or streaming pics, and nothing seems to work. I was able to use upnpplay (android program in the market place) to browse my stuff on the shared drive, but can't play mpeg2, vob or other format.
does anyone know what's the best way to do this?
G Tab supports H.264 1080p main and high profiles
Detailed specs on what Audio and Video formats G Tablet supports are listed in the manual downloadable from the Viewsonic web site.
But in a few words - it does support up to 1080p, both baseline, high, and main profiles for H.264 with certain limitations for each, and MPEG4 simple profile.

My entire system is redundant. I have my windows 7 share as well as my htpc/nas running tversity, orb and audiogalaxy (music only). Everything is shared in every way. First I try just streaming the file through Windows 7 dlna, which generally works fine. I too use Upnplay. If something doesn't work (very rare) I move to looking for it through Tversity which attempts to detect the dlna device and scale it so it works. I've never needed to use Orb on the GTab since I really got everything up and running, Orb is for when I actually am on the road and want to watch sth. from my home network. PlayOn may actually work as well - it has a free mode which allows you to use it to share files on the local network using VLC codecs.
Video Playback
I'd like to add to this conversation with, I hope, clarification of how to get higher definition video playback working on the GTab.
I've tried four video files that are 720P or 1080P. None of them works well in Movies, DoubleTwist, Rockplayer, or VitalPlayer.
G Tablet, TnT 4.21, OE kernel. Market fix. Various apps.
Videos all playing from /SDCARD
Here is some more information about those videos, using Mediainfo:
Touring Car race:
720P MPEG-4 50FPS AVC ([email protected]) (CABAC / 3 ref frames)
AAC Stereo
Big Buck Bunny:
http://www.bigbuckbunny.org/index.php/download/
1080P OpenDML AVI 12Mbps 24FPS MPEG-4 Visual ([email protected])
AC-3 audio
Audi R8:
720P AVC Matroska 800Kbps 29.970FPS AVC ([email protected]) (CABAC / 2 ref frames)
AC-3 audio
Donington LG demo:
1080P BDAV M2TS 35.5Mbps 29.970fps AVC ([email protected]) (CABAC /3 ref frames)
AC-3 audio
Are all of these simply too much for me to get away with playing on the GTab? I've played most, if not all of these, using a Broadcom 70012 Crystal HD decoder card on a Dell Mini 9 (Atom N270) with few problems.
Thanks for the help.
As far as I have understood the Archos 70 (on FAT32) should not be able to play videos larger than 4GB, because that is the limitation of FAT32.
But my Archos does not play files larger than 2GB. I ripped and converted a few dvd's with DVDFab to mp4's and as soon as the resulting file is >2GB (by setting a higher bitrate) I get an error message saying that the file is incomplete or damaged.
Am I overlooking something (I am a newbie) or is something wrong with my Archos ?
Which player are you using? Have you tried moboplayer?
I am using the default video player. Haven't tried another player yet but will do that. First I will make a larger file again to try it out.
This to me sounds more like an .avi limit on fat32 file system - are they avi container ?, if so you need to remux them to something else, .mkv probably best

I set DVDfab to "DVD Ripper to MP4".
When I open the file with MediaInfo it says "MPEG-4 (Base Media)" as container, so not avi. Or is this the same as avi ?
Update: Although I still would like to hear your reply to my above question (for better understanding), I think it has indeed to do with the container. I ripped and converted again with DVDFab but this time to MKV (not remuxing but ripping and converting again), and now I can play a file larger than 2 GB (in fact the file was around 2,5GB).
Hi,
most of the files that I drop on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 play smoothly, but some of the hi-res mkv files don't.
If I do need to transcode the video in order to play on the Tab, do you have any recommendations about the output video format and the transcoding software ?
I want to keep the quality as close to the original as possible (up to the maximum the Tab support), and keep a reasonable file size.
download Handbrake from http://handbrake.fr
1. In Handbrake load your video.
2. Choose the profile for iPad.
3. On the Advanced settings tab unclick "8x8 Transform".
4. This step is optional if you don't really need a 720p video. iPad resolution videos looks exquisite on the Tab anyway.
Resize your video to 1280x720 by clicking on the Picture tab on a Windows machine. Mac users can click the Picture button to change the resolution. Leave all other options intact!
5. Hit convert and wait.
The resulting file (iPad resolution only!!!) will be less than 1GB for a 1h40min video! You can push it with ADB or copy it through MTP without reconversion!
720p videos will be a bit larger in size, double for 1080p videos.
Thanks!
I needed to change the video parameters as stated below in order the video to run smoothly:

Mkv video file have subtitles embedded within the video. After converting a mkv video file that contains subtitles with handbrake subtitles are gone. Does handbrake support subtitles?
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk
You should be able to create an mkv out of the resulting mp4 from handbrake but not with handbrake itself. Im not at home to verify but the term mkvmerge comes to mind as ive done it in the past. Basically you use it to merge the mp4 with any srt subtitle files into an mkv container.
So in otherwords....spend 12+ hours screwing around with a 2 hour movie in hopes of getting subtitles back? I'll pass I'll donate a few more dollars to the folks at VLC in hoping they'll have android version of their player soon. Seriously tho....thanks for the feedback.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk
Apparently Handbrake has subtitles option, as seen on the GUI and on the wiki, have you tried it ?
https://trac.handbrake.fr/wiki/Subtitles
you could test the output on the Tab by producing only a few seconds samples, instead of encoding the whole video and finding out it's not working properly.
There's an drop box near the title selecting box, to choose "seconds" and then choose from-through range.

No, the process of creating an MKV with subtitles in it from an already otherwise playable MP4 file using mkvmerge is not a transcoding one. MKV's merely like a container with multiple files in it.
I hadn't done it in a few months but I just tried it again using mkvmerge GUI and was able to merge an english subtitle track with a 2GB MP4 file to form an MKV in about a minute (KF Panda 2).
As for subtitles in Handbrake I've never tried, primarily because that itself is a transcoding process and if I pick the wrong subtitle file I've wasted my time (for example if the timing offset of the subtitles is off I'd have to redo the entire encode).
Exported 720/H.264 profile for Handbrake
Attached is a zip with the profile I use in handbrake. Unpack the zip to get the ".plist" file. Then import it into your Handbrake setup to try.
I have converted about 600 hours of high def video and it plays well (both streaming and downloaded) on all the devices in our hands. These include my Galaxy Tab 10.1 (TASK650 Slim), Motorola XOOMs, Galaxy Nexus, Razor, Droid 2 Global and even my wife's iPad.
The output is a 720 resolution H.264 encoded MP4, but changing the container to MKV should be easy. I chose this format to take advantage of the hardware acceleration on my Galaxy Tab.

Also, on my GTab I found that the native player sometimes doesn't work as well as some of the others. Fortunately there are lots of good choices, ultimately I settled on BSPlayer. It worked well for both streaming and downloaded files. It could browse the drives of my WMC machine for recorded TV and home video, and it had configuration options that let me find settings that worked.
File size will largely depend on the quality setting. Last night's daily show (Comedy Central HD) recorded into a WMV file that is 3,808,428,032 bytes. After transcoding the same show is 295,481,893 bytes. That is 7.7% of the original.

Understand your frustration. It's most likely a settings issue, possibly on the video tab. What did you have it setup to do, constant quality? If so what level?
Once you get the hang of using it, its a fantastic tool that produces excellent quality encodes which is why it's often well regarded.
I've had times when sizes came out larger than expected, particularly if the video had a lot of action and the CQ algorithm pushes bitrate up during action scenes thereby pushing up the overall average bitrate and thus the file size. In cases like that I end up using a second profile in which I setup a 2 pass encode with a target average of about 3k or so.

The file is 1.4 giga and for some reason when I tried to copy the to my s3 it also crashed (in the past I could transfer to the s3)
a lot of my anime and tv shows are in mkv format but they are pretty small in size and i have no trouble playing them with mx player. i might try a larger file and get back to you.
Edit: i transfered a 13.1GB file to my XTZ "The Hobbit, An unexpected Journey 1080p" x264 .mkv file (bearing in mind whenever you transfer something to your XTZ at least in my case, it will warn you the file may need to be converted to play on your device) and i played it using mx player at first it complained i needed a custom codec to play audio because of "dts" which i went and downloaded but the movie was still playing without audio and looked fine. After installing the codec i tried playing the movie again and it was working perfectly.
If you cant transfer the files have you tried a different usb cable to connect your XTZ to your computer or even tried using an sd card reader (if your using an sd card) ?
I'm having the same issues and can't figure it out. Smaller files around 25 mb transfer fine. Larger files like my tv shows, which are 1+ gb, crash windows explorer every time. Yet I can transfer the same files without problem using OTG and a thumbdrive. I'm running stock (4.12) on an SGP312. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thx!
To the OP, mkv files play on the stock player but you wont get any audio if the audio format is AC3. Try downloading the vmplayer from google play. Works for me.
*** Also I tried a different cable and had the same results.
If watching anime, MX Player and BSPlayer are great options. I prefer to use MX Player because it renders perfectly .ass and .saa styled subtitles. Also the Hardware Plus (HW+) decoding works great. Only thing that won't be fully playable would be 10-bit color encodes that are getting popular among subbing groups, as this is due to hardware limitation, and software decoding is slow as heck with that format. So, anime in 8-bit and 1080p should run flawless.
For any other type of vids contained in mkv, MX Player and its HW+ decoder is also the one to go with. I play huge (+10GB) FullHD mkv files with no stuttering at all.
I used XTZ 32GB for all these tests.

I had no issues transferring large files (up to 8GB) over USB to my SGP312. Might be a driver issue in your Windows version. I am using Windows 8 64bit myself.
That being said, I am now solely using the app Wifi File Transfer Pro to send data wirelessly to my Tablet. It is not as fast as USB, but much more convenient.
Download some other media players for your tablet like VLC, MX players. If they can not help you achieve the goal, then I am afraid that you need to encode your videos into MP4 format via a third party programs inclucing Handbrake or Brorsoft Video Converter.
I want to send a small video clip via MMS. I converted a clip to make it playable on my phone and it looks like this:
video codec: H.264/AVC
file type: mp4 iso v.2
audio: MPEG-2/4, 44100 Hz, 128 kbps
size: 100 kB (has to be under 300 kB because that's the limit in my country)
It plays just fine on my S2, but when I sent it to another person, they said they can't retrieve it.
What can I do to make it work?

Upload it to cloud storage and text your friend a link to it...
My wife says I'm a phone geek....She's probably right

I want to send a small video clip via MMS. I converted a clip to make it playable on my phone and it looks like this:
video codec: H.264/AVC
file type: mp4 iso v.2
audio: MPEG-2/4, 44100 Hz, 128 kbps
size: 100 kB (has to be under 300 kB because that's the limit in my country)
It plays just fine on my S2, but when I sent it to another person, they said they can't retrieve it.

Converted how/where? Which program do you use for thre playback? MMS_system use old and not flexible formats; usually it works, but you have to do everything from the phone. Alternatively, you can use whatsapp/telegram or.. plain old email attachment

I used AVS converter on my PC and copied the file to my phone using a cable. I use MX Player to watch videos on my phone.
