yea but is to slow and when you push the full screen botton you only cant see a white screen with the sound and nothin alse not another player ?

Mplayer is nice

Act 1 video player is pretty good. Pause and play with a tap of the screen and ff or rw by sliding your finger forward or backwards. full screen works great on the nexus.

Personally I just use the built in media player, works in fullscreen and gets the job done just fine.

Ok I give, where is this video media player? what is the app name on the N1?

if your movie isnt playing in full screen, then you didnt encode the movie to the correct resolution. encode your movies whether they be rips or mkv's, make sure you encode at 800x480 mp4, 24fps, AAC 96, good to go. if you have no idea what i'm talking about, then do more reading

It's called "Gallery." Your videos are listed alongside your pictures. Or choose a video with any file browser.

Yeah, I should've mentioned where it was, not exactly intuitive in my opinion. As carnegie0107 says it's the gallery app. I had actually installed Act 1 Trial because I couldn't find the built-in one and when I launched a video file from a file browser it asked if I wanted to open it in Gallery so I gave it a go and it worked like a charm. So no need to spend money on a video player unless it adds support for more codecs

Act1 is great. I had a 640*480 video that needed to be stretched to the full 800 pixels for proper viewing and Act1's full screen mode did the trick. It also shows battery level and time without being obtrusive and has quick access to brightness controls.

No. It doesn't work. I hope it has a video player like apple's. After click a key, the picture will be stretched at top and bottom. The left and right side will be cut a little. Note screen is 1280*800, but the 720p is 1280*720. if have this, it will be full screen.

Try MX Video Player it has extra codecs and such. Runs fullscreen, easier fast forward and rewind.
Unintentionally sent from my Nexus One using xda Premium app.

Tried all five codecs, I think the 'crop' mode should work, but it's same as full screen, there has a problem.

Is there any good movie player apps for it that will play mkv files?

I think someone told me of one that you have to pay for a few weeks ago, but wondering if there is some free apps now. For the pc there is a bunch like VLC, Gom and KM player that play every video format. It would be nice to be able to take advantage of the hdmi output.

There is VLC Player for Android and it plays mkv files

No Way!!! I'm going to do a search and see if I can find it. It must be on the VLC website I imagine.

I didn't see it on the vlc website. Do you know where to find it? I did a search, but nothing came up. It did mention the ability to play files from your computer remotely, but that is streaming so it wouldn't be HD or great quality I imagine.

I've never been able to find this mystical VLC player for Android when I've looked.. Only VLC remotes. If you find it let me know.

Same... there was one talked about for WM also, but never seen. Please share.

VLC hasn't been ported for Android yet.
That said, the guys that are releasing a PSX emulator and working on an Android N64 emulator, are supposedly going to working on porting VLC in their spare time. http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/playstation-emulator-coming-to-android-courtesy-of-yongzh-and-z/

Look for yxplayer on market... plays mkvs.

I just installed yxplayer and it won't play a 1.4gb mkv file well at all. It is just a picture every few screens. Maybe the phone can't handle the file size, but my friend has an mkv player he got from china and it is bad a$$. It plays all file types and has mini hdmi out and I doubt it has a processor and ram as much as the evo. It's been out a lil while I'm sure. It has it's own screen but will output to an hd tv and looks just like you were playing a blue ray.

Probably thats the case... my mkvs were 640x480 anime shows. Havent tried anything hi-def...
On a side note, yxplayer is available as a trial only (2 min play time limit, tho some vids played for more and some reqlly did cut off after 2min), and if you wanna buy/pirate it - you won't be able to. The app for some dumb reason uses phone's imei for registration, which is gsm-only =O

Ok, so I'll wait for vlc, or another player to come out. Although I really won't need to play many movies on my phone. I will use my laptop if anything.

Dont forget about CorePlayer... they're working on a version for android as well. CorePlayer for winmo played mkv and nearly everything else I threw at it (performance on the other hand was a totally different subject, lol)

Any idea of a release date for Coreplayer? I've been converting my files for the longest time now but sometimes I don't get a chance to in the case of downloading a football match.

Its been in development for year(s) now, waiting for better NDK on android... Froyo seems to be exactly what they were missing so we should be seeing the app in few months, i hope...

[Q] Cant play videos,

Hi All
After much thinking, reading and youtubing, I decided to take the jump and buy a nexus s yesterday from the carphonewarehouse.
Upon opening my nexus s it was obvious the phone had been used (preloaded apps and lots of dust under screen cover) . I took it back and got a replacement pronto.
Turned it on and WOW, the screen is just amazing, WOW, I thought my htc desire omled was good but this is much! Much! better.
My question:
On my htc desire I was able to upload movies and shows, I’d downloaded, some were hd quality , and play them with no problems without any file conversions etc...
I can’t get the same files to play on my nexus s,
Is there any way to play these files (avi, mpegs, divx etc) without converting files as that is very time consuming. Is there any player in android market which may help?
Thanks for your help
PEACE

I'm guessing there's no way but to convert the files?
If so can any one recommended a reliable program or way to convert the vids?
Peace
Sent from my Nexus S

Download one of the following:
- VPlayer
- RockPlayer
- MPlayer
..etc
on the market. Only thing that doesn't work for me are 720p videos, they stutter but DivX standard works fine. Really need the codecs ported to the Nexus S for 720p video playback :|

no problem rock player is my choice as well, I've always preferred it. VPlayer is a pretty good alternative as well (trial version). But why buy VPlayer, there are many alternatives out there and it doesn't really have features to distinguish itself from others to justify buying it. I'm personally waiting for VLC for Android to come out.
Can't wait for VLC for Android to come out, it should be out early this year (as reported by several websites). Hopefully no delays and will enable 720p playback without stutter on Nexus S (or ported codecs.. one feature i miss from the Galaxy S series)

[APP] Moboplayer: the best video player for Android apk

I've paid for and used both rockplayer and vplayer. But rockplayer sucked on the droid x after version 1.2 and vplayer hiccups a little too often. Lately I've been using vitalpayer and soulplayer. Both are available for free from the market and actually seem better than both the paid rockplayer and vplayer.
Then I came across this new video player yesterday and I have to say, it's the best player I've tried. The UI is very slick and user-friendly, especially the file manager aspect. It also plays every file I've thrown at it (but haven't tried mkv's yet) and has both hardware and software decode mode. (Just remember to long press on video file to select software decode mode).
It's still in beta testing and says its limited to a certain number of testers but I was able to sign up directly from the app without issue. You have to provide an email address for testing purposes (I'm assuming) so if you're not comfortable with providing its, this app is not for you. But for me, it was a no brainer.
Awesome app.
View attachment MoboPlayer_v7_neon.apk
Should work on all high-end ARM V7 CPU Android devices
Would give credit but don't know who to give credit too. Will update when I do. Enjoy!

So, good chance this will become a paid app eventually?

Probably. But like I said, I've paid for several other players so, if it's as good as it been, I'll probably pay for this one as well.

THanks!

i really liked this app.. high power rendering.. can render a mkv file of 180 mb and not too bad fps too for the same.. but the audio video sync is little buggy.. i think it needs to be fixed... else its a wonderful and the best app available as a multi format video player!!

Very nice player, best I'd ever tested. But I don't like the License violation of ffmpeg. :/

For you Reference, It supports low end devices as well,
http://www.moboplayer.com/moboplayer_en.html#download
It requires registration(closed beta). I tried it. It does not play wmv files and even HD flv file ( where vitalplayer plays it nicely )
But UI is appealing !

Wao..! This is much nicer than vPlayer.. in terms of UI. Like the vol and brightness control on the right and left side.. making tweaking them a breeze!

I was reluctant to try moboplayer because it requires registration. But rockplayer was made much worse since version 1.2, after part of the original team left for moboplayer. vplayer is now free for Chinese users but it has a lot of decoding problems and random crashes. UM Player (悠米解霸) is barely usable at all.
In my case, moboplayer has by far the best video decoding (smoothness and artifects) for universal players I ever used/tried, and the best file management (though still minimal):
moboplayer >> rockplayer (below 1.2) > rockplayer (1.2 and above) > vplayer >> umplayer
My only problem with moboplayer now is the forced update. I understand the reasons behind but it just don't feel good being forced. I'd rather pay a few bucks for peace.

for me mVideoplayer is still best
AlsonBC : its stupid and wrong to say : render mkv

I have never needed another video player. I download music videos mostly in mp4 format and they play fine on the stock video player on SGS running froyo. Is there any SGS user here? Recommending another video player?
For others, is the stock video player not good enough?

i got the sgs vibrant and there are still some videos i can't play with some players...this one comes close but one video i play can't hear the audio...is a mkv format..

gotta say really like this player - does the job nicely
resuming, subtitle support, HD support (on the Galaxy S), MKV
excellent

Thanks!

I still use rockplayer(beta). Can anyone say this moboplayer is better?
Rockplayer(beta) does good for me except for +2GB wmv files, where I lose any ability to FF or REW.

Message has been deleted

Anyone tried a 720/1080p mkv movie with it yet?

Also, is there any list on compatible formats?

This is really good. Most video players I've tried have problems on my 2.2 nook color. However this plays perfectly. Thanks!

Nice work, Thank you

[Q] Movies Freezing

I use a registered copy of ChewTune to rip iTune TV shops for watching on my TF700.
The transfer will state completed and apepar the correct size but about halfway to three Q's through the show it will free with a loud buzz.
Nothing I have tried such as moving beyond the point will help.
Tried several movies players with same results.
My question is there software that would scan the movie file and report or fix coding problems?
Thanks

Sounds to me like you either have something configured incorrectly in the ripper, or its buggy, but in either case it is unlikely a simple edit will fix the videos. The problem isn't likely a playback issue on your TF700, but try playing the vids on a pc and see if they work. If they do you might need to encode them differently. If not, then you might need a new ripper.

I am experiencing similar thing, but any show/movie stutters from beggining.
I use BS Player which worked perfectly fine until 4.2 version of android.
I think it is the ROM, not the movies. As mentioned, they work fine on PC/BoxeeBox - and they worked just fine on infinity, too - but not anymore.

Using MX Player on both 4.1 and 4.2 with no problems at all, perhaps your problem comes from BS Player.

I can second. I'm on CM10 using MX Player, and it can play my 1080p/5.1 bluray rips without any problems.

Been there, done that! Guys, loose both BS and MX and get Dice Player and all your problems will magically just go away! Works flawlessly over wifi too. Took me a month to figure this out and I had all your same issues. Thanks @jtrosky!!
