FLAC Support? - Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm running Urukdroid 1.5 on an Archos 70 and when I attempt to play a FLAC audio file I get an error stating the player doesn't support this type of audio file. From the specs I've seen online there is FLAC support. Can someone tell me why these are not playing?

[Q] slow playback when trying to play. WMV file

I downloaded a short clip video from a website on to my phone. It's a .wmv file about 8 megs in size, when I try to play it back in rockplayer it playsback very slow, like it's in slow motion. Yet when I playback a video recorded by the phone playback is normal and smooth.
Anybody know why?

What media player are you using to view the file?

wmv files are always a pain in the ass, they always play slower than usual if they are really using the wmv codecs, this is seems more a codec issue than a phone issue.
Have you tried other files with same extension?
hook the file to the computer and check the codec using Media Player classic from K-lite codec pack, on the properties you can see the codec used.
If on your computer the file get heavy/slower to jump from one time to other this is for sure a codec issue.
Do you get any additional lags anywhere?
Maybe the version of rock player that you are using is not the good one for your phone.
Are you using hardware acceleration? (rockplayer config)

Yes I am using whatever the latest of rockplayer is.
No I'm not using hardware acceleration. Where do I get that?!
Gladbto know it's more a codex issue than a phone thing. Still annoying though.
So is an easy fix to use hardware acceleration? !

You can try QQPlayer if it ends up being a codec issue, or system player will even play some wmv.
Is it a 720p video? High resolution or bitrate could be the problem too. Hd video is just impractical to use on x10 unless it's from the video camera.
Stick with sd mp4 trailers if you can find them.

Vital player plays Wmv ok for me, had slow speed with arc media.

[Q] flac playback

Hi all,
I seem to be having trouble with flac playback.
The music app (the new google one) seems to be able to read all the info in the flac files, including length and album cover... everything's there, but when you hit play there's no sound...
I've had a look at other players on the market that say they support flac and the same thing happens. (or they even think the files are like 200 hours long or something weird)
Has anybody else had any trouble with flac on the x10?
Thanks in advance,
Russ
look for Mplayer on xda

Poweramp plays flac on my phone without any problem...

Best video player

hi guys, i just got myself this tablet and im loving it, im trying to play mkv files on the tablet but the player i have been using on my phone doesnt work that well on the tablet, (QQplayer)
what do ye recommend to play mkv files
MXplayer.....
and witch codec is it? or you dont install any codecs?
No codecs needed
I think BS Player Lite is better then MX Player. MX stopped support for DTS decoding and MX plays AC3 on SW mode and not HW. BS Lite has it's own HW engine and play AC3 on HW mode.
I agree, Bsplayer also have lan mode to stream without problems from my pc
Tried BS Player and it works fine! Plays Mkv without any problem and with sound
thank you for the suggestion

Yeah, I agree. I was using MX Player and was getting the force close issue where it intermittently quits playback. I changed to BS Player and no more issues.

I'm using MX Player for long time now and I had no problems with it (pro version).
Other interesting video player is:
Super Video, Floating & Popup

Mostly because of floating feature
I like mx

But as no dolby codec how to get ac3 with mkv file types?

I used Rock Player but have now switched to BS player, working well.
BS player lite too...
I don't need MX anymore since i'm able to lock android buttons directly from OS
(BS player is not offering any lock option)
I tried XBMC yesterday but it seems to use installed codec...

How can you get the VLC player on TF300T ?
I went to Google play and didn't show any VLC player (even Beta).
I like VLC player on my PC. It can play almost anything (avi,mkv, iso, vob, etc...)
Thank you.
MX Player Pro - plays everything I through at it (.avi .divx .mkv .mp4, ect)

It doesn't decode DTS audio anymore.

Anyone use MX Player lately?

I found they upgraded the app recently with new h/w+ features. I can now get louder volume off mp4s which is what I primarily watch with downloaded podcasts. Performance is pretty zippy too.

Yes I have and it fixed the problem where it sometimes used S/W mode instead of H/W.
Not exactly sure what H/W+ does... Or what it does better than reg H/W but oh well.
Just got the 1.7 update and H/W+ makes everything better for anime. Also love the custom codecs, finally got DTS working with a compiled ffmpeg codec i made.

i love mx payer but i still keep bsplayer as a back and between the 2 ive not found anything that wont play
omg MXPlayer almost handles 10bit perfectly. I can see a bit of pixel problems sometimes, only needs a bit more of a push and it could literally play anything.
@everyone who says Bsplayer can play everything.
Try a 10bit mkv anime episode. You will see what it does.
Latest 1.7.2 is the best!

[Q] i9100g Flac support

Hi, I am new on this community.
I want to know if anyone have problems with Flac files?
I can add my flac collection to Apollo or Play Music, this apps can read the Flac tags but does not plays the music.
Thanks!
Nacho, i'm sure there's an app for that flac or whatever you got there.
Sent from the little guy
Yep you need an music app that plays FLACs. Try Poweramp.
Thanks a lot. I thought it could put of the flahs
