Mx video player works with sd card and for streaming videos from your network. You need to add sdcard2 as one of the sources in settings. Hope it helps

So does Mobo, and is far to more customizable.

Thanks. How do you connect to the network drives please. I tried mobo with bubbleupnp and it wouldn't play avi files.

You can try ES file explorer and tapping on the LAN tab. Then add the server you're trying to play the files from and you can then tap on a file to play and choose to open with moboplayer.
I am using MOBO player. It's working great. Free and easy to configure.

BS player has hardware acceleration and works great on Tablet S. I think it supports SD-cards, but not sure. The .srt subtitles work great though. It also has a function that searches subs for you online. No more searching!

I use a similar setup as you. For my file manager I use HD file explorer for honeycomb and set up my network through the lan connection. Then I play the videos through MX player and music through Mobo. Some videos play better than others depending on the format but for the most part it works well. What I like about HD file manager is you can access everything from your network drive and it easy to setup. I just wish there was a way to create a play list for music files from my NAS without transferring files to my SD card. Any ideas on this?
Try CineXplayer I have had any issues also locates files for u when opening so no need to manually find files. No ads full screen no stuttering videos. Good quality picks up where you leave off in videos if stopped while viewing when opened back up.
Yes mobo player is pretty sweet, free and clean looking a must download if u wanna watch movies n things.
MX player does both (SD card, SRT titles) flawlessly. So impressed I bought the ful version.
no stop in mxplayer?
How can you stop video from playing in Mxvideo?
I do not see any stop button?

just tap the screen and there should appear reverse, pause and forward. just press pause´. There is no actual stop button.
u can change that in the settings actually I believe (i.e. always show controls). Can't imagine why its necessary, you want full screen video normally don't you?
Strange. So when I start a 3 hour video and notice after 5 mins that I have seen it...I need to look it to the end as I can not stop it. I need to try mobo....

I noticed the picture viewer will play m4v videos that I put on the device through USB, but not FLV videos. What video formats are supported?
Is there anything that will play .flv video files? Any recommendations for better video players?
Thanks
I just purchased KalemSoft Media Player from the App Catalog, the price a little high but it plays many more formats than the stock webos player. I am happy because it's playing my divx movies so it was worth the cost for me.
What formats is the stock software supposed to support?

[Q] Video: Streaming via SMB
Hello world
how can I do to watch movies on my touchpad streaming via SMB?
Are there any applications for it?
I thank you for your help
guys,
i need help to find out a good app to play .avi files on the touchpad ...
i tried installing Kalemplayer, it opens up the file and plays it but the screen is pretty messed up ..
i also did the touchplayer, but i cant seem to make it navigate to any of the file locations.
any help would be greatly appreciated
Stream Video
I would really like to have a good video player on my touchpad which could stream over my home network (samba). The best program I've seen so far is the one which comes with the Archos tablets.
What do you mean you cannot navigate using TP?
for some reason the kalem video player in preware is messed up, you can get a good copy by going to the kalemsoft website and downloading it from there, preware should install it when you try to open it.
http://www.kalemsoft.com/site/downloads2.html
it should be the link highlighted in red
Unable to install Kalem media player either. I was able to download it onto my touchpad but says 'Cannot open MIME type'.
Was one of the many that got it on sale and still pretty new to it. How do I get around this and get it on?
Try the touchplayer. It's back up on Preware.

When you install it, you have to make you are on 3.0.2. Also, your best bet, install Internalz Pro then install TouchPlayer, after they are installed reboot the device 2 times [for good measure]. They should install all dependencies that you will need.

I cant tell you a way to do it via SMB, but even if I could then you would need to start worrying about compatible codecs.
I would instead suggest Kalemsoft media player. It is seven bucks in the market or Free for the older version on their website.
If you download the server app, setup a DDNS account and forward the default kalem server ports you can stream your home moves to anywhere you have internet access.
If all you care about is streaming while at home, then I would use UPNP...

kalem soft works the best .. still no luck with touchplayer. thanks for the link duplissi
When you use Kalem, you're video isn't lagging at all?? I tried using Kalem and TouchPlayer. Honestly Kalem is better by far because at least it plays my video.... but otherwise, are those the only two video players out there ?

I've installed mobo player.
i've just put on avatar, transformers 3 and warrior. as i dragged them across the pc started converting them. each of them looked ok in the folder. when i unplugged the phone and tried playing them they were just about 5 minutes long with just a bit of music.
i'm completely stuck and baffled...
just tried again, and again, only 4 minutes 51 secs of video played. i don't understand why. is it because i'm uploading using my pc?
why is the pc trying to convert my file format as i'm trying to transfer it? confused!!!
I play 720p mp4 flawlessly with Mvideoplayer. I wasn't promted to convert my MP4 files when I copied them from my PC to my phone, but it did come up when I did it with some AVI files. I clicked no to conversion and they play fine on my phone.
OK, so i've now tried loading another type of file, avi, to the phone. it was a 6.2GB movie. It didn't load, said it was too big!!! WTF!
this is some FAT32 issue right?
But this still doesn't solve my original problem.
I've loaded many different files, many types, different sizes.... But it seems like all the stock video player (and now MOBO Player) wants to do is play only 4 minutes 51 seconds........
but when you look at the file through astro or the pc, it shows the true length of the file.... thnk i'm missing something here, it may be basic, but please help someone. been at this all day with no luck!!
wmv
anybody knows about a player for wmv files? I tried using the Mx Video Player but it says it doesn't support it.
I don't whether you guys looking for the free or paid apps
but
I personally using rockplayer lite and it does work with almost every thing especially if you use "play with hardware acceleration" then every thinh up to 3.5 gb film is work pefectly
I got also a PowerDVD mobile (violation of the xda ...) hacked one so it work well.
so i cannnot post a apk.
Try diceplayer
Sent from my XPS using xda premium
I transferred movies onto mine, six files ranging from about 700mb to 1.6gb in avi format and they play without any problems on mobo player,I also have power dvd mobile legit version and that plays them as well, the only thing I find with power dvd is it stops playing now and again and I have to press play for it to continue.
I'm on windows 7 and that asks me do I want to convert it,I don't generally but with the planet of the apes I did but it played ok just a smaller file size.
The only thing I can suggest if you haven't already done so is instead of drag and drop, try right clicking on the file and copy/paste and see if that makes a difference??
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
i tried like mx video player. mobo player etc almost anything with neon codec support. it can barely play a 720p wmv properly, audio just out of sync and video is laggy. something is not right here. however i try some other resolution like 480p and it works fine.
my ex optimus 3d can even play almost all video format with hardware acceleration support.
some media players does not use hardware acceleration!! thats is way is not work fluently

This was the kind of answer I was looking for.
I've spent al most 2 days trying to figure it out.
I've used mp4 files, other formats, normal transfer and transfer using pc companion.
I will try avi files, and no to convert.
hoping this works. stay tuned...
what kind of video can the galley-app play?
I would much like to stream to my Sony TV without HDMI-cabel, same way it works with pictures
Hi,
What is the best program to play movies and subtitles for XPS?
If you try to copy videos or audio it will sometimes ask you to format the file, simply don't allow this when the window pops up.
This will be different for every computer depending on what codecs you have installed.
Also sounds like your possibly not waiting long enough for the files to copy over? Might not be showing the progress bar for what ever reason, slow pc?
Replace the miniUSB cable perhaps with another.
Try a different computer to drag and drop the files across.
There's a 2gb file size limit with the fat file system, a 720p or lower avi movie that's about 700mb is plenty quality for a screen this small, you don't need large blueray 1080p clips taking up memory for a very minor difference in quality.
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
Also you can put files anywhere on the memory, player will pick up the files automatically.
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
If you use a combination of bubbleupnp and dice player you can play almost all movie formats just fine. It is perfectly possible to play videos from other dlna servers as well as play videos from the phone on other dlna renderers.

Can you recommend a free Windows program that can convert these into one package that my S3 can play?

instead of converting you can try using mx video player from market, it has support for all types of subtitles
That's a good idea, and I will probably go with that - however at the moment I'm wanting to show off the features of my new phone to work colleagues, and popup play (although it's a gimmick) seems to impress! So I want to use the standard built in video player for that reason
Any suggestions? Is it even possible to combins .mkv & .srt into one file? I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to audiovisual stuff :-D

I tried using that and it seemed to be doing the job ok - (using the associated program MKVExtractGUI) it allows you to select the elements of video/sound/subs you want.
However the H264 file it spat out at the end won't play properly in VLC on my computer - it's jerky, jumping up and down from about 8 frames per second to 25fps and back again, lots of artifacts, and no sound or subtitles (despite me selecting those elements to be included).
If it barely plays in VLC on my laptop I doubt it's going to play on my phone...
Any more ideas?
Have you tried using the stock video player? It plays MKVs and subtitles out the box.
I tried that, that would be ideal - but it didn't play the mkv files i gave it. I'll try a couple of others and report back...
Ok well I've just found the first chink in this phone's armour:
It's very fussy about the .mkv files it will play.
It outright refuses some. Others it will play the video but no audio. Some it will play perfectly, unless you try and activate subtitles under the settings menu, in which case it craps out, freezes, and gives me a "this video cannot be played message." Even if I do manage to get it to play subtitles along with the video and audio, it's well out of sync - like minutes out of sync....

Well if you do have to end up re-encoding your videos, try out Format Factory. It's free and has a ton of options.
I would suggest using MP4 and 'burning in' the subtitles. If you can't understand the the language you might as well have them a part of the video.
Thanks, I'll give that a try
Ok here is the problem I am having. Im using my PC in my office as a media server. I am able to connect with my DNA and pull up all my videos with ease. Thing is not all my videos are in .mp4 format majority are in .avi. I am able to see the thumbnails of the videos but when I play them it says cannot be played. So on the side there is an option where you can search for wifi players. Tried that and even though I have video apps like mobo, vlc, and mx video installed. HTC doesn't recognize these options as wifi players. So should I convert these movies to .mp4? Im trying not to because most are HD movies over a gig each.

Clear the defaults for your stock video player and tap on the movie you want while using a file explorer then pick what player you want. The player option is for you to stream from your phone to a device that can hande the format, not an app on your phone.

Hi,
Can anyone help with this one?
I've got a few video files in MKV format, which play fine if they are stored on the tablet (SGP311) or on the Micro SD card.
However, when I try to stream MKV files from my Windows Media Center (windows 7) library, I get the message "Cannot Show media. File format not supported"
MP4 files stream ok from the same location, so I'm confused.
I'm using the stock player. I have downloaded MXPlayer, but not worked out how to stream from WMC with that yet.
Can anyone explain why or suggest a solution before I convert the videos over to MP4 format?
thanks
Andy
Are yuou playing it right from wmc? If so, i think its in the software because it has to play within..
If you want to play the video from the location folder you can try gomplayer it plays a lot of video formats (even an mp3 file).. Currently using.

Use rockplayer. Mxplayer does stream mkv though, you do need a filemanager though.

I had the same problem and I didn't figure out what was that.
So I found a cool media streaming app called ArkMC. It supports all video formats. Works smoothly.
