Can anyone recommend any video players that will play this smoothly? I have to buy the ac3 plugin to test on the default player, but I didn't want to buy it without confirmation it would work. The 3rd party players all seem laggy and skip sound.
Try BSPlayer
Why not buy the cinema plugin? In my opinion no player can test the Archos player.
With the cinema plugin no problem

not able to play 1080p videos smoothly by default player. i tried playing 1080p mkv .im getting video without audio??? any players to play 1080p? i think we can use dice player .Other than dice player???
Suggest me guyz
Thanks,
I'd like to know this too.. im aiming on getting a RZR and want to know what player plays .mkv files the best.. well 720+ videos atleast.. i tried on my TB and just stutters and plays like crap..
i had no problems playing 1080 mp4 music video in the stock player. the video's been downloaded from youtube. however.. there seems to be a problem with mkv audio so if you want to play mkv videos, use MX Video Player. it works just fine and it's free... it's one of the most popular video players on android and it has great performance. if you want to play avi files, you have to switch video to SW mode tho.
Using MX video player this phone is capable of nearly everything. The only thing swedroid had problems with was the bird scene from planet earth in 1080p high profile and ac3 sound.

mx player is a good choice
Hi!
The Best : MX Video Player !!! - is the first video player that performs multi-core decoding !!!. for dual core - performance improvement = 70% than single-core .......what you want more ???
these app store freeware video players are all heavily infested with spyware especially MX i would use VLC as its clean
Mx is good, but
For ac3 audio mx player is an answer on the phone. I usually watc movies on my full hd tv and videos with 624x352 reulution became choppy, They're smooth in mobo and bs player, but they can't use sw for audio and hw for video. In a forum on moto's website that they're working on the ac3 audio codec. That was on 9 november, last year.

Do tell!
i only use dice player...
i think diceplayer is the best for playing 1080p music video..
the video can play smoothly n high quality sound :good:
Anyone have a favorite video player? I want something that will play all types of files, like MP4, AVI, MKV.
Aside from finding the 'best' one, a problem is when I download something like MX Video Player, I see all these add-on apps like codexes that are for specific processors. Which should I choose?
Thanks for any help or advice.
I think this question was already answered in another forum... but I downloaded MX Player and didn't have to install any codecs. For my atrix the mx player app prompted me to download... i think the armv7. But for the note, everything just played fine. I didn't get to try mkv's though.
MX Player can play 1080p mkv's just fine in hardware mode.
I use that in conjunction with file manager with samba support to stream from my NAS.
Another vote for MX player. I've even uninstalled the stock video player and just use the MX player for my main video player.
MX player will automatically prompt a codec download if needed. You don't need one with the Note.
Dice player is another good one but it had some slight lag when I was watching a movie which was disappointing. That never happened to me before with dice.
Loving vlc alpha. No pros in software or hardware mode with a 720p movie for 3+ hours.
I find MX to be jittery in HW mode on many video files (doesnt happen to me on my international Note). I run in SW mode but the quality appears to be slightly worse..?

Yeah MX seems to be a bit jittery with my .MPG files... it wont even play them in HW mode, i have to use SW mode.. and even then i have to use SW Mode Fast Decoder to get it to play properly
however the quality looks excellent to me. I'm still amazed by this f*ckin screen. 1000x better then my atrix.
Anybody know the best conversion settings for Handbrake? I read on another site that these were good choices, but seem to be for International version:
Video
Codec- H.264
Resolution- 1280×720/1280×800 (HD)
Bitrate- 1500kbps
Framerate- 30fps
Audio
Codec- AAC
Sampling rate- 44.1khz
Bitrate- 160kbps
Channel- stereo
I use Moboplayer and it seems to work fine. I wish vlc would be final.

MX Player has been working great for me...
Rockplayer and dice play everything I need.
Mx player will attempt to play anything you throw at it. I used it until I realized that's not necessarily a good thing. It will play files that it can't play well...with no video, with audio sync issues, at half desperate, or down-scaled. Not what I wanted.
I use CIFS Manager to mount windows shares locally. This give you access to more players. If you have issues, a TVersity install may be an option.
I am having strange problem, i had some videos on gingerbread which i am not able to play on ICS even if they worked without problem before. There is a sound but no video? I will reencode them if there is no alternative but is there something like codec pack for ICS?
An alternative could be to download MX Video player.

Use another video player.
mx video player has the most range of codecs plays everything i throw at it avi mp4 hd vids etc.
I have tryed mx video player and it still doesnt work. Is this maybe some DRM feature (movies arent DRM protected) as i dont use google market and prevent all connections to the internet from it (i dont even have account there).
Ok, i have figured out the problem, the mx player is using hardware decoding which is uncapable to decode movie. After forcing it to software decoder it works.
Hi!
i'm looking for a good video player for our tattoo, that can play video files smooth.
i've tried MOBO player and BS Player, but the video was not synced with sound.
can you help me?
cumpz!
Hi.
You can try MX Player.
Hello.
How about Act 1 video player. Or Meridian player. Although I use those on my chinese tablet, not on my Click, they are great video players.
Or you can try Seaman player, it's UI is ugly, but it's good player.
Pop Player (Speed-Control Video Player)
I highly recommend the free Pop Player app. I recently made a couple of reviews on it on YouTube.
This new video player allows the user to utilize speed-control. The slow-motion
and speeded-motion are extremely smooth too and audio syncs perfectly with
the video at any speed. :laugh: It can definitely be useful for athletes and students.
Some people I know even use it to replay their golf swings in slow-motion
in order to improve their form.
This player plays MP4 files that contain H264 and AC codecs.
Check out my review of this app on youtube by searching "Pop Player Free Android App".
I suggest mx player
It has a good forward option, yet the best thing is the subtitle menu if you are watching a movie.
I have a Asus tf700. It has a 1080p rez. like this Z. I bought it used from amazon for $300 but I'm returning it because video skips and It only gets 2 hr.s of battery life after viewing my mpeg2 1080i video. All my shows are mpeg2 since thats the way come off my Tivo. When I look at battery use in settings I see about %70 is my mxvido player. I'ts the only player I know that will play my mpeg2 shows. The next big usage is screen at about %20. This is with outdoor viewing so screen was bright. Can anyone tell me how many hours of mpeg2 1080i video playback you get? Id like to consider this sony if it can do better. Or wait for the The new Asus Memo Pad FHD 10 inch 1080p tablet. I dont game.
Already tried other video players like BS Player, Dice Player, MX Player, Archos Video??
It's very dependent on the decoder (and the kind of hardware acceleration) how battery-consuming and CPU-/GPU-intensive playing movies is.
I admit that I often are quite unnerved by people who rate devices by the pre-installed software. It's normal that the pre-installed apps don't cut it and that only with 3rd party apps a device can shine.

Dice player refuses to play. BS, like MX player will both work but only with software decoding and framerate is choppy and both kill my battery in 2 hrs. I installed Arcos player but says it needs $5 dollars for mpeg2 codec to playback the ac3 audio on my mpeg2. Does the sony z tablet's naive player playback 1080i mpeg2 videos? How many hrs. does it get? Does it use hardaware acceleration as no players seem to achieve this using my asus tf 700
No, you can download "Archos Video All Codecs" plugin for free in the play store, then the Archos player can play all formats!
Nor MPEG2 nor AC3 can be decoded in hardware by Snapdragons. You're out of luck here. On a modern format (H264 with AAC audio) you'd get much improved video playback times, smoothness, quality and compression.
