[Q] diceplayer subtitles not working after last update - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I have a question with respect to diceplayer. after the last update subtitles are not working for me anymore. anyone else have this problem? or can check if this is also not working for you? previously i had no problem at all...
i tried the following:
- .srt and .avi file with same name
- select subtitle from menu
- re-install diceplayer
- remove data from diceplayer.
i am on a samsung galaxy tab 10.1. normally i use es file explorer and stream through my network. unfortunately local files on my tab will also not run anymore with subtitles.
hope you guys could help me out here... really missing my subtitles.
btw. is it also possible to install for instance an old version of this player without the update it had?

nevermind.... with the update from a couple of minutes ago subs are working again.

Can't play upnp content (SOLUTION FOUND)

Hi guys,
I used to get a popup menu to select which app to play video when streaming upnp, I no longer get this popup and it seems like a player has set itself as a default and this app will not play my mp4 files, I've gone though all of my apps and non are set as default.
I'm running Vegan-Tab RC1 Gingerbread. Everything else seems fine.
I installed CleanDefault but still no popup. Can anyone suggest a solution.
UPDATE: I installed ES File Explorer and got the pop-up back, however when I try and play using ES Video Player I'm getting "Sorry The application has stopped unexpectedly, Please try again" I know my server is working ok since I can stream to my phone with no problem, this is only happening on the GTab.
Installed NWS Player and still cannot play video, they are encoded h264, is there a downloadable codec for Android? Anyone?

What are you streaming with, what app were you using on your tab when it worked and what app is now trying to open the videos?
In streaming with TVersity

Hey appreciate everyone's help with all the gtab issues. I'm a newbie and also have the Vegan-Tab RC1 Gingerbread installed, but continue to have video playback issues from not only web content, but from usbdisk files as well. Case in point, watching mp4 of Jeff Beck from my usb attached to gtab and plays about 7 minutes then locks up and I have to power down the gtab and reboot. Getting pretty frustrated, but hope someone can direct me to someone who can help. I've read tons and nothing seems to be helping much. Thanks for your time.

[Q] streaming with subtitles possible

i have a question with respect to streaming of subtitles to my tab.
At the moment i am running standard touchwise i am not intending to root it.
Here is my problem, i downloaded several episodes from a series and i am streaming them to my galaxy tab 10.1 on the following ways:
way 1: tversity on pc --> skifta on tab --> using rockplayer to play the movie
way 2: plexmediaserver on pc --> plex on tablet
I have no problems playing movies with incorporated subs (of course) but i have not found a way to play a avi in combination with a .srt file. (of course srt has same name as movie, and it is working in windows).
Is there a way to get this working??? am i doing something wrong?
EDIT: sorry for the bad english... i am from the netherlands
is there nobody who could help me out? or just tell me it is not possible.... i guess i am not the only one having this problem, right?
I know DicePlayer on the market supports .srt subs. You will need to transfer the .srt file(s) to your tablet.

hmm, so that means i stream the .avi to my tablet and subsequently it opens automaticly the .srt file that i will have on my tablet? will this work with for instance skifta?
I use ES File Explorer and have added my laptop as a server over my home network (I'm not sure how you'd go about doing it otherwise).
These are my exact steps:
1. Open ES File Explorer
2. Navigate to .srt file
3. Copy .srt from laptop to tablet sdcard
4. Navigate to .avi
5. Tap .avi file > Complete action using: DICE Player --(movie should start playing)
6. Tap "Select a subtitle" on top right of screen
7. Navigate to your .srt file on tablet
Done.
I've never used Skifta, but (presuming Skifta operates as a file explorer which you use to browse your PC files) as long as the .srt is on your tablet, it should work.
can i add my computer as server without filling in a pasword? i am on windows 7 with only 1 user and dont want to change that.....
As far as I know, you need a password set up. However, I think you can set Windows to auto-login so you don't have to bother with entering it every time... Google should help in that reagard...
thanx everybody. i have es file explorer working.... so that is perfect
just downloaded the trial version of diceplayer and this player is streaming also subtitles... so that is also perfect.
unfortunately i have not found another free player that could do this . So, somebody knows of a player that also stream subtitlels or where i could select the subtitles which i have on my tab?
Just want to close this thread with at this moment i think is the only solution:
- I have installed es file explorer
- Put on a new user account on windows with a name/pass
- (optionally --> set in windows 7 to automatic startup without asking for pass)
- Bought diceplayer in the market to play series
Diceplayer is also streaming the subs from my computer, so you dont have to place the srt files on your tablet.
thanx for all help varelawarfare, much appreciated.

[Q] Files Streaming Issues through WIFI

Just got the S3 couple days ago and I have a problem with WIFI Streaming at home.
Previously, I have been using the Transformer to stream large video files over wifi without having any issues.
On the S3, I have tried ES File, and File manager to stream videos and transfer files that are over 500MB. Streaming stopped at various times and transferring large files always stopped at some point and eventually crashed the transfer. I don't know what's the issue is and WIFI seems to be stable and I never had an issue in regards to losing connection.
When the video is played, it would load to certain point, and then when the video reached that point, it would stopped.
This happened on MX Player and the default video player.
No problem at all when the same video is played from internal memory.
Transferring and streaming small files such as MP3 seems to be ok.
WIFI is set to always on during sleep.
I even tried to *#0011# method to turn off WIFI power save mode.
Anyone knows what the issue is?
THANK YOU!
Anyone able to help?
Can someone please help? Thank you!!
Same video streaming issues. problem details.
Hi.
I'm just a week into Android OS but have good knowledge of Windows and networks.
I bought a Sammy 7" Tab 2 (ICS) last week and liked it so much, I gave it to my wife and got a Samsung 7.7 (Honeycomb). So, I have both OS's to play with. Both are WiFi only. Both have the same problem.
I have a large collection of old movies & tv (w/o DMR) on my W7 desktop's hard drives. I can copy the files via USB or over WiFi using "ES File explorer" with no problems. Once the files are on the tablets local drives, xvid, avi, wmv, mkv, and mp4 all play perfectly.
If I stream the video, using "ES File explorer", wmv and mp4 files play fine, but the other formats don't. I've tried Mobo and 2 other players with the same results. Most of my library is in xvid format. I can covert them, but that's a nutty solution.
Anyone have the same problem? Better yet, understand why and have a solution?

[Q] Issue with MKV playback

Hi guys,
I am having issue streaming MKV files off a Windows share from my S3.
I am using DicePlayer, and even tried other ones (MX, VLC beta and other ones ...).
The application will be buffering and then go back to the file browser.
I was using the exact same technic with my S2 and it worked just fine.
I am using the stock Samsung ROM, rooted.
Have you guys tried that at all?
I haven't tried to store the mkv on the SD/internalSD storage yet but that would defeat the purpose ...
Thanks !

[Q] Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 MKV files

Hi all,
I am using MX player to watch videos and it seems to lag with some MKV files. There is no lag on avi/mp4 files, and sometimes even some mkv's work. Recently though I am unable to play any MKVs without lag. I'm unsure if this is how the system works, but I am unable to use the HW/HW+ decoder on any MKV files.
Today I flashed a custom rom onto my galaxy tab 2 and tried overclocking, but I haven't noticed any difference. ( I may be doing something wrong). It seems that I have the same issue with other players too.
If someone could help me out, that would be great. I'm not sure if I need a settings change, new player, different overclock values, etc. Hopefully it's possible to watch my MKV files
Edit: If someone could also suggest if there is a certain rom that helps too I'd appreciate it.

I don't know, but i could suggest you to post this in the right section, this is for the galaxy tab 10.1 (gt-p75xx) not the tab 2 10.1 (gt-p51xx) lol
