I am about to download a 720p 3D movie
but one problem it's mkv
will it work watching it in 3D?
if not is there a way to convert it to mp4 so i can watch it
thank you for your help
MKV and mp4 are just containers. What matters is the codec it's encoded in. MKV files will play as long as they are the right codec.

Hello,
I tried playing a MKV video with 1280x720 h264 definition. It didn't run well and subs weren't included. Is it possible for it to run smoothly and include the subs? Thank you in advance!
Never tried it personally but this might work for you

Edit - Just noticed it will only play mkv files if the phone natively supports it. If this doesn't work you might try Vplayer or Rockplayer.
Mobo player..and get all the codecs for it on the market lol

diceplayer works for anime mkv files! i tested this personally. though only with horriblesubs fansub group
Has anyone found an app or workaround to view hardcoded subs for MKV files or other video files?
If not, can someone post a link on how-to extract subtitle files from a video file into .SRT format?
correct me if i'm wrong but i thought hardcoded subs were placed directly onto the movie vs softcode that use an srt etc file? shouldn't they just be there?
Some video files have subs embedded that you can toggle on/off with no need for separate files, I guess he's talking about that?
You must mean softsubs as boondoc said. Try mVideoPlayer on the market if that does not work you can use mkvextract to export the sub file.

Sorry, I meant soft subs included in the same file. Not hardcoded, my mistake. I will give mvideoplayer a shot.

You can also try MX Video Player. Uses 2 cores on sw decoding and also having hw decoding.
I recommend Dice player also, for those couple of files MX Video Player can't play properly.
I found MX Video Player to be the better of the two recommended. HW decoding works great for high resolution 1280x720 MKV and XviD encoded video.
mVideoPlayer works ok for XviD and DivX, but the MKV file audio/video was choppy. I imagine the SW decoder is optimized as well.
Thanks to both of you guys for the suggestions!
Diceplayer support MKV subtitle without extraction + Full Video HW acceleration
+ DTS/Flac/AC-3 audio.
Hi,
I have nearly the same issue, but on an eeepad Transformer. I created a mkv file with the programm makeMKV. This programm creates one mkv file with everything inside (video, all audio tracks, all subtitles). If I play this file with vlc on the pc, I can choose between all audio tracks and all subtitles. But, if I play the file on my asus eeepad transformer with mx video (or with any other app, for example vPlayer) there's only the possibility to chose between the diffenrent audio tracks. Subtitles can't be chosen.
Has someone an idea?

Does anyone know if the stock video player can playback AC3 audio in the MP4 container? I got some MKV movies that I extracted into h.264 and AC3 files then placed them in an MP4 container. I didn't want to encode the audio down to 2 channel AAC, but I don't know if the Galaxy Tab can play AC3 in MP4 container. Don't have my Tab with me at the moment to test it.
Sometimes MP4 files with AC3 audio cannot be played well[/URL]. To solve this issue, I know a quite nice way. It can help can convert various video to MP4 video with AAC stereo (2 channels), MP4 video with AAC 5.1(6 channels), MP4 video with AC3 stereo and MP4 video with AC3 5.1. In addition, it can convert various format video to AVI with MP3 or AC3 5.1, MKV with AAC or AC3 5.1 audio, MOV with AAC 5.1 audio, MPEG-2 with AC3 audio as well as convert video and audio to audio only AC3 5.1, AAC 5.1, AIFF 5.1 and WAV 5.1.
The versatile video converter presets ready playback video for many devices like Apple TV, PS3, iPod, iPad, iPhone, Zune and more. So you can enjoy movies with excellent video and audio quality on your devices wherever you like.
To find it, google search "step by step guide on how to convert and play MTS/VOB/MKV and more video to MP4 AC3 5.1".
I would like to know what others are doing as far as encoding video to play on the Nook Tablet. The consensus seems to be the H264 encoding for video? What file format, m4v, mkv?? Does it make a difference? What about audio?
I have heard discussion about HW versus SW playback, what does this mean?
What resolution do you keep your videos in? How large should I expect the average full length movie to be?
usually 720 since they're smaller
2.5gb and mp4 or mkv
using mxvideo
sw btw for mkv and hw for mx vid
hd movies will be about 2-2.5gig
normal dvd's will be ~700meg-2gig(avatar) for h.264 format mp4/mkv

huh? Sorry, still don't get it.
Most videos play fine without converting for me. I just drop it in the tablet and use MX Player.
Also, .mkv is not a video format but a container.
hi i want to ask,
i had problem with playing mp4 h264 files in 720p or 1080p,
the default player cant play the files and the other player (rock player, etc) can only using software encode and the result is lagging.
after i read some article, it said that the other phone that using tegra 2 is having the same problem.
is there any solution for this?
or maybe there's custom rom that could use some hardware encode for playing mp4 h264 HD files without lagging?
thanks and sry for my bad english.
