I have a CS918S box that has quad core A31S and PowerVR SGX544MP2 but I can't find any version of XBMC that plays back videos properly.
This box is apparently capable of 4k video playback but I can't even get 720p or 1080p working smoothly.
Does anyone know how I can get it playing video consistently?

I am using Himedia H7 which has the same A31S. I installed the latest XBMC (ver 13 official) and found the same problem.
I went to set up page - video - accelaration, and changed the decoding method to sofltware decoding with multiple CPU. After that, I found it can play 720p video smoothly. Very pleasant surprise.
It can't do 1080p but I am happy with 720p.

I've found the Beyond XBMC and Semper from the Ouyforum works best. So far [email protected] works perfectly. Currently trying to figure out how to get full 1080p working

My first post on forum, my first tablet and first android device in general =)
First of all, thank you guys for all that great job.
Now the question:
I flashed my G-Tablet with vegan-tab 5.1.1 + supplement update + pershoot's OC Kernel 1.4 (set it with setCPU)
Tried to test HD video on youtube (720 & 1080) but it is laggy as hell (image stutter, audio/video asynchron.), tried stock browser and dolphin HD. 480p plays fine.
I know that froyo ROMs shouldn't have problems with hardware decoding or flash video is another story and all that is normal for g-tablet?
Thanks for quick reply
I don't think hardware acceleration will help with flash content. But I could be wrong.
thank you
anyone else?
I've been wondering about this myself. Is there a native YouTube app that has an option for HD playback? I know there are froyo/gingerbread "YouTube HD" apks floating around from a few of the EVO roms.
It seems ridiculous that a Tegra 2 chip wouldn't be able to handle downscaling 720p to our 1024x600 screen.
I have gtabcomb 3.3 on 1.1 and I have the same problem
Is there an hc from that work?
Happens that, in my Atrix with Stock Rom With the Latest OTA, when i download a 720p mp4 video with the Keepvid app, The system player simply says that it cant play it. if i download the normal version, without 720p it works. i've searched for it here and other forums and it says about of the video encoding being H.264. then they reached the conclusion that tegra 2 cant decode it natively... okey, but i went to the acer iconia tab of my brother who has the same tegra 2, and it played the 720p flawlessly, with the stock player! the same video! it cant be hardware if that worked.. do anybody know if this is just disabled in stock? or maybe a feature of Android 3.0+ ? Thanks in advance
Comeon people nobody ever tried this?

Is it possible to get youtube to run in 1080p on December hdx7 rooted. I edited the build.prop to 4.4.4 but still only 720p works.
is 1080p not working on CM11 / CM12?

Why? Absolutely no difference on a 7/8.9" screen. Just consumes more bandwidth and potentially slows playback.
After months of researching why video playback fails on my device, it is because it is using cpu rendering not GPU. That also prevents me from playing +240 videos on YouTube. In VLC beta, I can change the playback device to OpenGL 3.0 and video works awesomely. How can I do this system wide?
You can try SW decoder to play some video

This is not a real solution, we want to have hardware accelerated playback like on any normal system.
There is another problem too, I've seen few people mentioning it. It probably affects only integrated intel gpus, hardware accelerated vids look like ****, they have extremely low color depth.
This problem doesn't occur under recent Androidx86, so I hope that they'll switch to new kernel as soon as possible.

Works like real shiiit on my pc. We have GPUs and we want to use them. Maybe the kernel update in the next version will fix it? Let's hope so.
Hi all,
samsung xe700t1c - ao4uk convertible laptop tablet
core i5 quad core 1.7 ghz - 2.6 ghz turbo
4gb ddr3
intel HD 4000 ( 2GB video memory )
running version 3.0101 (Marshmallow) from a 544MB/s 64GB Msata drive in a USB 3.0 Enclosure
everything working very fast system (INCLUDING SLEEP AND WAKE UP but havent tested every sensor etc). Sim card function not working so jide please enable sim card function for calling and internet data. Thank you.
so far with an Antutu score of 124,000 i have tested 1080p 60fps HD video playback which plays smooth and crisp and 3d games like Dead Trigger 2 work perfectly.
by default the remix os is in powersave mode but all cpu cores stay on and high which causes battery drain and cpu heat but with a software called 3 cpu manager the problem can be solved easily by setting the max cpu frequency to 800 Mhz on all cores and you also have the ability to change from powersave to performance mode which is what i used to acheive smooth 1080p 60fps video quality! (without overclocking the system 1080p 60fps footage is not possible and laggy!
please enable HDMI audio and widget capability and please make remix os unrooted and create a method to easily root for users who want root that way you have both audience users!
I think you should post your message to this feedback page so that it reaches the developers

Hello,
i have tried to moonlight streaming from PC to Androidx86, but its not working, i got message that ROM doesnt support H264, otherwise Games with OpenGL 3.2 and mesa are working.
Is there way how to fix it?
I understand this is quite an old post, however if you check out my fork of moonlight I think I got it to work but am unsure of the preformance of it, feedback would be appreciated https://github.com/foxtrotdragon/moonlight-android-Android-x86/releases
Thanks, there some problem with last Android-x86 release on my Netbook, but will try it, if not write back in 2 days, just remind yourself.
Hmm, error is still the same device or rom dont support h.264 playback..
