The file is 4.36 gb , .mkv format and is DTS .
Thanks !
Never mind , gave VLC a try and it worked flawlessly with audio dts too Thanks to anyone who was willing to help me !

I had issues with video playback from my mp4 videos and such they were showing flashes and played but were choppy.i installed flash 11 from the market to fix the issue.lost sound when i did this.so i uninstalled it now everything plays perfect even hd.so if anyone has this issue this worked for me.
What player are you using? I used Rock Player to test some AVI videos yesterday and it seemed to work perfect.

How big were your files, and what format if you don't mind me asking? I tried playing a few mkv files, at first they didn't work, I then rebooted and one of them would play, albiet, choppily (MX Video Player). The files were 700MB-1.5GB.
I did download a 720p mp4 video of Lion King's "hakuna matata" from youtube, that played fine.
1080 videos of various sizes and i am just using the native player built in cyanogen
Try Mobo Player, if it doesnt work as it is, download its ARMv7 codecs from the market
The Rezound plays my MP4 Movies great. Tried playing a Movie in AVI format and the stock player will not have it. I downloaded another video player from the Market and the Movie does play nearly as sharp as the stock player does with the MP4 Movies. Any Ideas? Is there a way of using the stock player with AVI??

Maybe the format of the AVI is not comparable to the MP4 you played?
Have you tried MX Video Player? You didn't mention which player you tried.

it's actually best to just convert everything to mp4
Thanks for the imfo.
I use mobo player for everything else.. avi's (Divx/xvid's....etc.)
fantastic... the language is a little lost in translation but the app works wonderfully and has a nice interface for scanning/seeking and volume control while watching a video.
mobo is ok but I'm another who prefers mx player
Try diceplayer.
You can play 1080p+DTS/AC3/AAC MKV/AVI files with Full HW Acceleration.
and dice has SMB/FTP/HTTP support, you can play over 4GB files from PC and NAS.
Great info guys, thanks again. Checking them all out. Amazing the choices available.

Does Xperia S plays DivX/XviD/WMV/MP4 without installing external player from Google Play
I didn't try, but who what's the problem with installing external player ? MX Player is a beast .. it's the VLC for android !
It just plays everything .. !
It does play my divx avi's and mp4 files with the stock player. Don't know about WMV.
If you need an external player I recommend diceplayer which plays everything I have tried.
I really need this info, Because if the stock player plays all these files then there would be no issue in connecting the XPeria S through DLNA
Xperia s supports only h264 mp4 format under hardware acceleration natively.
Wmv,mkv,divx all require external program, and playing any content with 720p and above via software encoding causing lags and audio sync issues. Hope Sony can fix this..I have tried mxplayer, rockplayer etc. with all those problem still persist. I don't have any problem like this with my optimus 3d (wvga) probably Xperia s have hd screen ?
I just made a test and plugged USB stick to my phone
with .avi movie inside, and played it perfectly fine from the XPlore, apparently it was native video player which played it.
I also have a Dice Player which is said to support most formats and play them with hardware support.
The Xperia S also does XviD in .avi containers just fine with the native player. I was quite surprised personally.
BSPlayer is godlike, i think its even better than mx player, thanks if you think so

Yes I can confirm this, my xvid had 5.1 surround sound though, which the Xperia S understandably couldn't play.
Since I got my prime (Jan) it has always played MKV files (mostly at 720p) well using either Diceplayer or BSPlayer. It was recently RMA'd and after having had to re upload the apps MKVs are problematic. On BSPlayer there is a significant audio lag and Diceplayer won't play MKV files at all. I've also uploaded MXplayer and that plays the files but without audio. The stock player also plays the files without audio. Other files, e.g., mp4 720p seem to play fine. Any thoughts out there as to what may be wrong?

For the audio issue, that might be caused by trying to play DTS audio. DTS codec has been removed from DICE & MX Player.
You can try using a custom codec with DTS enabled, see here.

I'm pretty sure they are all straight DD tracks...?
One thing I have noted is that if I click on the audio icon in MX player then the audio option radio button comes up as unchecked - if I try to check it then nothing seems to happen...
Also tried Rock and Mobo - no MKV audio, yet fine for other file formats.

Have been through pretty much the whole playstore - only vplayer and qqplayer gave any audio, but both had really choppy video playback. What's up?!
safest bet as of right now is to convert everything to mp4....I loaded 32 gigs of different format movies for a week-long vacation and when I got on the plane every video player i tried played everything really choppy and slow...I had one mp4 on the sd card & that played perfectly....I tried the stock player, mizuu and mx...all failed miserably....and I was pissed....
I have some avi video files and the playback is choppy, if i use mx player and choose s/w decoder they play as they should. Other formats like mp4 and mkv play fine with the stock video player its just avi. Anyone else notice this?
Never mind i think its just a certain batch of files i have, it must not like the codecs or something. i have tried other avi files and they run smooth
