Same here, even with highlandsun's video codecs it seems we can't play the video.

Probably due to same issue with HQ Youtube videos huh?
How can I bypass the "This device is not supported by Netflix" that I get when clicking on a title on my Instant Queue, so I can see if it is working or if it just audio only. Is there a way to spoof the app into thinking I am on a supported phone? If so, please tell me how to do it. Thanks.
There is an apk that will not check for device compatiblity but yeah no video. For me it plays audio and then it kicks out back to the queue. I wish it worked. Anything we can do?
Can't tell anything without knowing what codec / format Netflix is using in this app. I'm sure they're using H.264, but if it's not H.264 Baseline Profile then our phone hardware can't decode it. And if it's larger than 640x360 resolution, our current codec can't handle it.
I don't have a Netflix account so I haven't tried to see what formats they're using.
The current codec we have is written in C++ with threads. I'd say that's at least a 10% performance hit right there; if it was written well, in straight C, it would probably have achieved the 800x480 that Qualcomm's original spec claimed.
Netflix released an updated app today with support for more devices. I get the main screen, then loading, then the playback screen and nothing .... black screen. Nerts.

I'm not sure what 'nerts' are, but the new video playback libs might be necessary... Anyone with those new libs given this new app a shot?

nerts = nuts = really mild profanity
I actually have the new libs installed already. I'm running a RHOD500 with the latest kernel, overclocked to 710 Mhz, in case that matters.

HQ YouTube works more or less. There's a little stutter sometimes, and some HQ videos start and then stop after 5 or 10 seconds, and some others play just fine. Oh, and the libs fixed video playback of the mp4 movies I already had on my device.
Weird thing is, YouTube under WinMo refuses to play HQ videos at all.
Nerts is funnier.

It used to. Some time back YouTube changed something, and now HQ videos play without sound (I was thinking they didn't play at all). Supposedly you can fix this by changing your network to "media," but I don't have that option any more since I upgraded to 6.5.

I just rebooted to see. Worked fine for me, I'm on 6.5 - but I used Opera... I don't know if there's some app that I should be using, perhaps it wasn't truly HQ.
Either way, if it used to then there shouldn't be anything limiting the hardware. Seems hyc went thru all that pretty thoroughly tho.

I'm using Dot's latest rom dated 04-23-11 and it does play HQ youtube flawlesly, unlike NRG's which for some reason have a little choppy sound while the video plays, or it could just be my old tilt2

I was using the HTC YouTube app. I tried it on two different 6.5 TP2s and they both do the same thing, HQ video plays, but no sound.
And your right. I know the hardware is capable, just somewhere along the way something in the software got screwed up on YouTube's end or mine.
Anybody try changing the build.prop to HTC vision or desire z or any of the phones that works with Netflix that's how we have it working already in my section

I don't think the new version checks to see what model you're running.
The new Netflix app has a LOT of compatibility issues.
They still can't get it working on most Huawei S7 ROMs, and that device can do 720p easily.
Hello everyone!
It is urgent. I need a video player other than the Rock Player why he keeps crashing, the audio is delayed. That is, not to even see any videos. Do you have any other solution? Some other application? If so, please, post me the download that is not using the internet ANDROID.

Of course, if you try playing 720p movies will be slow, because our processor it's only 600Mhz, or what you have overclocking, and for playing 720p it's needed 1GHz +, so best resolution for see movies smooth -> 480p max
lol
thanks for the explanation. Just a question! Do you think that our processor could handle a day with a 1 Ghz modifcações that will arise? Why does our phone supports 720, but we do not have the necessary processor. What do you think?

Not for ARM v6 processors.
Why would you even want Honeycomb on our phone? Honeycomb is ment for tablets and most apps for it will likely well, be unusable.
I understand due to the lack of driver source code that Hardware acceleration will not work on our tabs past 2.2(froyo). But I am currently running Calkulin+Clemsyn 1.5ghz Froyo Combo VERSION 6: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1024120 and I have tried at least 20 diff videos and diff formats using hardware codec and not one video played. I know you can use apps to play videos with software codecs but when you start going into 720p and 1080p videos the video slows way down. So is there something I'm missing? I thought the tegra 2 could handle 1080p decoding? If there is another ROM that can do HD decoding better please let me know cause video playback is what I use my tab the most for. Thanks for any help and sorry for the wall of txt lol.
Will punch the thanks button!!!
Edit: Ok after several trial and error's on trying pershoot's kernel I decided to go ahead and re-encode my videos using Freemake video converter. It works and the quality actually looks better! This program is free and it has Android presets for our tablets so that you get the best video quality at our resolution! Now I would still like to use pershoot's kernal but I can't find any froyo roms that has his/her's kernel already packed into the rom. If some one could please help me with finding one that would be super! Thanks soooo much!!!

I used Calkulin's ROM along with whatever current kernel Pershoot had and I never had any issues with and HD videos. You might want to give one of Pershoot's kernels a shot.

Why not re-encode to a lower resolution? The GTab can't even play 720p without resizing, which is what's killing you.
1024x600 - that's the screen size. Re-encode your HD video to be under that. It will play like butter. And be considerably smaller.

Why would they say you can play up to 1080p video, if you really cant? lol Also does it matter if its 600x1024 or 1024x600? The reason I ask is because I see it different all the time lol And one more thing, What program would you suggest to re-encode? Thanks so much for everything!
Edit: Ok so I tried pershoot's newest kernel out and I love it! I get some video acceleration back and it also fixed some sound issues I was having. The only problem is that after I install the kernel it boot's up fine but if I reboot, it gets stuck in a boot loop. If I do a factory reset it will boot back up again. but if I reboot then it gets stuck in a boot loop again. So with that said I don't think this kernel is meant for this ROM. What is the best froyo ROM that includes pershoot's kernel? Thanks for everything!!!!
Hey guys
i have a Problem with the Playback from some mp3's.
So i open the file with the standard player, it say's: "This type of Audiofile can't be played"...
But if i open the Audiofile over the "Root Explorer", it will be played with this player.
What is it?
Any other App from the Store make exactly the same bug...
The exactly same file's was played on ICS without any failure... but Jelly Bean??
In hopes that the new firmware (1.14.401.18) will fix the problem, i had flash the Revolution HD 4.0 Rom but this is not the case...
What can i do?
It is not acceptable! Such problems were among the old Windows Mobile 6 times...
PS: The Custom Rom is NOT the Problem. I have this Bug since i unpacked the One x+...
I have no problem with music (FLAC or MP3) at all, so it must be a problem on your side (ROM, other installations, MP3 or anything)... Not a general HOX+ problem...

The one Point with the mp3's fix was the reason for me, to risk to flash an custom rom because i have only rooted it before.
I must correct me:
The MX Player, rather a Video Player, is able to play the MP3's. All now, without issues..
But not the "Beats" player from HTC, wich is perfectly integrated... Damn it!!
Can anybody help me??
Please

i will be trying to flash it today
I have over 300 MP3 files and no problem playing them with the stock HTC player.
Many players will only work with standard bit rates and ID3 tags. If any are not using the proper standard it might fail to play.
The reason other players are working is most likely they are ignoring the bad data or will play nonstandard bit rates.

You may be right, these files have different bit rates... -> but why can i play since gingerbread all mp3's without any failure?

According to CPU spy, BS runs at 1700 all the time, but still I have those micro lags again.
Quit and restart of BS does not help...

the difference is huge i agree
300mhz more CPU power doesnt seems that much but it is and you can see it.
i think setting it to the performance governor also made some difference.
also you dont want the CPU clock to be all over the place as it was before (from 200-1000mhz)
there seems to be some problem with SuperSu when its ask for permissions all the time.
when that happends and you are in a movie you will get the lag back even if SetCPU has permision.
you need to change some settings in SuperSu.

no need to use 1700mhz
that will kill your battery and also higher the risk of thermal throttling for the CPU.
(the CPU clocks down when it gets to hot)
set it to 1300mhz max and 1200mhz min instead.

i am using Nexus Media Importer what are you using?
FYI, the Samsung manual on the Exynos 5 processor in our tablet gives a full list of its hardware decoding capabilities for video. According to the manual it only supports 4.2 profiles and not the much more common 4.1 profiles. It also does not support .mkv files, but not sure if that matters since MKV is just a container and not the codec. But this could be why it isnt using full GPU hardware decoding capabilities of many movies and instead uses so much CPU power:

and decoding only MPEG-2/VC1/VP8)

I tried this trick on Plex too to see if I could minimize the buffering that I've been plagued with. It seemed to help a good amount. There was still some pausing but it happened less often and was of MUCH MUCH MUCH shorter duration (like half a second to one second) and much less intrusive to the watching experience.
Thanks for the tip!

great that it speeds up buffering...didnt know that!
whats is Plex ?
Home media server kind of thing. Run a plex server on a desktop, run the plex app on your tablet and watch your movies, etc. I think part of our buffering problem is a recent change in the setup of the hard drives storing our media files, which we are going to try fixing, but still, set CPU seemed to make things better.

If you read the H.264 wiki, it seems that Levels correspond to supported resolution and frame rate maximums. So all 4.1 encodings should be supported on a 4.2. The BP / MP / HP mean Baseline Profile / Main Profile / High Profile. All different types of encodings.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264/MPEG-4_AVC#Levels
MKV is a wrapper. It may never be supported on the built in video player, but all 3rd party (MX Player/BS Player etc) can easily demux the core video data for hardware decoding.

Had it on userspace gov. Trying performance now. Also, wouldn't it seem more logical (to eliminate switching altogether), to set it to 1300/1300?
---------- Post added at 06:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:39 PM ----------
I would not change global SuperSU settings to "grant" instead of "ask".
I configured "grant" and "no notification" for SetCPU and for the ProfilesService instead.
BTW, 1300/1300 also works good for the TimeScape video.
I am really glad someone else finally saw the not-smoothness in video playback. Or maybe some N10 can play smooth without this trick...
Will you inform the BSplayer developers about this? Maybe they can now do something, so that SetCPU is not necessary?
Seems like it may be helping YouTube buffering as well. Need to do some more testing with that.

lol i think they read this
once you have set your profile you dont need to bother with it..so no problem here if its not fixed in BSplayer.
maybe they can fix it but then you probably need root anyway.
i think all N10s perform the same so its no chance you can get this smooth playback with the default setting.
as i said..300mhz is alot for adding performance to an app
