Okay guys, I don't know how many of u came from an epic to photon, but for those of u that did, I'm sure u noticed the stock video player sucks. If there anyway we could add the ability to play mkv files or any other format? The video plays but there's no sound....any ideas?

I've been using MX Video Player from the market lately. It seems to support a lot of formats that the stock player does not.
Hi, first time android owner so just figuring things out. I downloaded mobo player and it works great and it allows me to play different video formats. I end up downloading movies and tv shows in flv format and copy them to my phone and it wokrs great. The built in player would not allow me to play them. I believe Mobo claime to play all video formats.
Try it out and let us know. And btw...sorry but i don't know what an mkv file is. I will google it though...peaceout!
thanks for the suggestions guys, i was looking to just stick to the stock video player, but i don't think that's gonna happen, mkv is just another file type, just like avi, mp4, just another video type. I downloaded Vplayer and that works fine for all video types, I just hate having multiple apps for one thing....I guess maybe i just got used to the epic stock video player. Well anyway thanks again, in case anyone else needs a suggestion on video players, Vplayer is good, but not a freeware. If you don't mind supporting the devs who make this stuff i recommend it.
Weather Channel Codecs for Photon
I downloaded The Weather Channel app, but the videos on it won't work like all the other videos I just spent three days trying to find the right codec info for. Is there ANYTHING I can download that will make them work since converting them isn't an option?
Here's what I have:
Stock Android
System Version: 45.3.6.MB855.Sprint.en.US
Android Version: 2.3.4
Build Number: 4.5.1A-1_SUN-198_6
Many thanks to anyone who can assist.
I use meridian player revolute and paid for the pro version verifier. I'm having problems with the videos freezing when I play a playQ or try to play videos in a folder. I haven't had this problem since i upgraded to ICS 4.0.3 and I was curious if anyone else has this problem or could test it. I have all videos in mp4 format, they play fine, but at the end of one, sometimes it just hangs till I hit Next on the screen.
I emailed the developer and he had no help for me, told me to make a music playlist and try playing that, which is nowhere near what I wanted to do. I want it to be video and it want to be able to randomize it. If anyone knows of a replacement app that could do this with ease, and load my video file list fast, let me know please!

Does anyone here know of a way to get the music player that came stock on my Sprint Galaxy S2 Epic 4g Touch onto my new Droid Razr MAXX? I can't stand the stock music player, and no other player that I've downloaded so far has had the kind of flexibility that the GS2 player had. The biggest problem is that none of the other music players have been able to play from a specific folder. They all have the basic artist, genre, album, etc. functions, but I need one that can break it down into specific folders.
Is it even possible to get the GS2 player onto the Razr without rooting? Does anyone know of a third-party player that can do what I need?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Hello XDA,
I have a few movies purchased on my HTC one, and they won't play in HD (They were bought in HD). I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but it was working fine on Sense, however once I flashed the Google Edition RUU, they will only play in SD. This happens both when I try and stream it, and when I download it.. That's weird because I have my download set to HD. Anyone else have this problem? Maybe its a Movies update?
Thanks,
Hi. I've got a Motorola Atrix 4G with the original 2.3.4 GB rom. I'm about to go on a trip and I'd like to use my Atrix to watch videos through HDMI on a TV, as title says. I've no mini PCs so the Atrix would be just perfect. I've tried using Entertainment Center to play my videos but I've got some issues, such as:
- audio in avi files is not played with video
- mkv files can't be played
While mp4 and 3gp seem to be played correctly.
Is there any alternative I could use to exploit all Atrix's potential?
I've searched in xda forum but I'd like to receive a more technical advice, and I need it fast since I'm leaving on Monday.
Thank you in advance
