You do realize VideoLAN will be releasing VLC Player for Android very soon.
Re VPlayer ~ since the dev went Paid only with this App it's caused quite a bit of negativity.
So, whilst waiting for VLC I would also recommend Rockplayer.

I used vplayer on the tablet, and noticed it was struggling with 720p MKVs, while the native video player was coping just perfectly.
Have now discovered mVideoplayer, which does handle MKVs perfectly, and is now my preferred video player.

Anyone tried QQPlayer???
http://android-apps.com/applications/media-video/qqplayer/
Mobile QQ player is one of the best video player application running on Android smartphones that supports all the popular formats of videos on the market, including RMVB, AVI, FLV, MP4, 3GP, MKV, MOV and etc. Its smart core technology auto detects video formats and makes it much easier for you to enjoy smoother, better quality videos with limited resources and smaller screen. Download from the Android Market for free now!

Mplayer was just ported to Android 1.6+. It was on XDA's twitter feed this morning. Haven't tried it yet on the Tab, but it should support pretty much every codec and container out there.

M player feels ok not really happy using it.

I am not able to find good video player which can play 720p mp4 files. I have tired vplayer, rockplayer which does not work for these files. Default player and QPlayer work fine but no audio .
How do i get audio back on default player or Qplayer.

i watch 720p video files that are in the mkv container just fine on the sgs using rock player what are the video and audio codecs inside of the mp4

I have tried rock player but it cant play videos properly. BTW here is the codec details
Video codec:- H.264 / AVC
audio code:- MPEG-4 AAC audio

Google it. To compile it you need the sdk

factory player not play multichannel aac this is true and there are lot of such in typically mp4 container... the other problems is vplayer and rockplayer not use hardware accelerated decoding in native mode so with strong files you will in trouble... more over these I simply don't know that fir the original player seems to need just some correct splitters as seems the decoder is very good for almost everything... maybe core player will play everything with hw decoding... hope...

What´s the best player for dreamdoid? With vplayer de-interlacing does not work very well and i have FCs

tried it but didnt play mkv file, may be the file is bad as nothing else plays it well either.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App

would recomend mVideoplayer,, it plays my 1080p files, i can get subtitles from mkv files too.

Finally a player that is better than rockplayer

Today i have a free application to recommend (MoboPlayer) , it's still on beta.
Official website : http://moboplayer.com/moboplayer_en.html
Tested this application with a 720p MKV anime and it can play smoothly on it, tried it on rockplayer and it lag like hell.
However I think it's only work on 720p with around 30fps since Sony capped the max fps. Tried it with 24fps video and no problem with it.
It's support almost every type of video files just like rockplayer but have a nicer interface but you have to add the video into it's library in order to read.
Download link extracted from the website: http://update.moboplayer.com/android/release/mobo_1.0.120_v7_neon.apk
Please try it and comment below.

it did not even find my media,while other players did!

Awesome player! Confirmed but not high volume videos.

VITAL player is best

VITAL is better i guess
I have a 200MB .mkv file It plays in VITAL
Laggy in moboplayer/

i`ve tested a file with vital player
720p - 28 minutes - 1GB - mkv file - audio ac3 5.1
the vital player cant play it smooth and correct.
its very laggy. will test the mobo player next...

Now i can uninstall QQPlayer Vplayer nice...

V Player is BEST !!

I use Meridian Player and it seems to play files very smoothly. I shall give this one a shot though.

I´ve tested mobo player now with the same file...
i cant understand why everybody is talking that kind of **** in this thread!?
pls believe me that there is no player for sony x10 which can play "real" 720p files well without async audio and laggy frames.
buy next phone with dualcore and i think its possible...

THE BEST Video player i ever seen for android .... way better than Vplayer's stupid interface ..... thank you very much

I really LOVE MixZing for all my MP3s! Its got a clean, simple, and dark interface. For video I use mVideoPlayer for Anime because its the only one I know that automaticly got subtitles for my episodes.
VitalPlayer I've been using for video, but I don't like how it doesn't have a list of your media like mVideoPlayer.
I'm gonna try this new one and see what I think... the hunt to only use one continues.

Amazing it's the best player to this moment ..
I test a lot of player but this is the best thanks man ...

Which version of Vital Player is for the X10 as our devices are Arm7 but on Market it states that Vital Player Neon is suitable for our X10s, even though that version is suppose to be for Cortex A8 devices only???

Sigh... That's just plain ignorant... The X10 has a hardware decoder that can handle even 1080p without any problems... BUT since it's a hardware decoder, the video stream has to be in a format it understands. In the X10, that means H.263, H.264 and MPEG-4.
Any other codec needs software decoding and for that, there isnt enough CPU power to do at more than ~15fps for 720p. By dropping frames, that wont desync audio but it will be laggy to watch so that statement is just plain wrong. Dualcore also wont change that one bit.
As for container, atleast from what I've seen so far, no third party player has ever handled hardware decoding themself but always relied on the built in videoplayer for that and simply showing the output. That however limits you also to containers that the builtin player understands for this, which is only MP4, AVI and MPG. But that may very well change and if OP states that this player can play 720p MKV files, it may very well be the first player to properly implement calling of the hardware decoder itself. Will be intresting to see.
But please, learn what it is you're bashing before doing it. It saves people from having to come correct your misconceptions about what you're bashing.

read the first post and you can see that he was talking about MKV FILES !!!
But its the same with an 720p avi file... i dont have the chance to test the mp4 at the moment...
everytime i want to play a 720p movie (and not a camera record) its laggy on my x10.
you mean if i rip a movie in the mp4 there would be no problems at all?

Ok, so I just tried this player... and it is super awesome!! Easily the best one I've tried so far! Thanks for sharing!

it took my application sound files and paired it with my audio files. not cool.

Thanks for all your feedbacks. The 720p (1280x720) h264 mkv file that I tried run smoothly on it. As some of you stated it's still lag, therefore i tried a 720p mp4 file and the video is quite smooth however there's lot of distortion in the audio maybe due to the 5 channel audio.
Will try again tommorrow if I have the time.
Anyway one of the good points of this player is
1) Better interface
2) Able to choose dual audio track (English, Japanese) or dual subtitles (English, German etc)
3) Much more smoother than other player
4) More gesture function.
Hope you all can get the best out of this player. Have a nice day.

Guys !!! succesfully played alot of mkv's (movies, animes tv-shows all HD)
this one is much better than rock player gonna buy this app definetly !
edit: when i click ''about'' in the app it crashes to the main screen !

found a bug.. if you have a mkv file on the sd-card and you click show thumbnails in the settings the program crashes !

awesome player! but while integrated MKV subtitles do show up (720p mkv). the separate .ass subtitles don't show up(maybe because still only 3 subtitle encodings) they DO show up in rockplayer and vplayer. One more thing it could be awesome if you could implement audio tracks switching. i'm very interested in buying this player but i need all my subtitles to work and audio tracks switching =(

Does it support SRS?

It crashes with some of my videos, if thumbnail-preview is enabled...

Can it play 1080p mkv video with no lag ?

Not being able to play even 720p mkv's, laggy and no sound at all.

the fault must be on your end then.. mine works great with 720p mkv/avi/divx

1st player i have tried that can play my 720p MKV files without lag or dropping files.

I bought it based on the reviews. Can't wait to try later when I get home.

The only similar thing that I find is the "content filtering" and is already selected to "Show all apps".
That is it? If yes, unfortunately doesn't work yet.
OK, I need to recognize that I am noob on Android, so it could be probably something that I am not doing right.....

Wow finally got a chance to drop some 720p films on my phone today. They look and play great with this app thank you.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App

this app runs GREAT! so much more smooth than vplayer! only one problem I found so far since I watch a lot of anime with embedded subtitles. Most are .mkv with .ass subtitles. .ass subtitles embedded in .mkv don't seem to load although .srt load fine.
Can you integrate support for .ass subtitles?
I attached an example .ass subtitle (i put it in a .rar archive since xda didn't allow .ass as attachment..)
Thank you !

[Q] Which Video Player are you using?

I'm looking for a videop player that can play avi, mkv, m4v, and mp4. I'm currently using mVideo Player Pro, but it seem not to like avi, mkv, and m4v. Any help would be appretiated.

QQplayer
QQplayer android market

Try LittlePlayer, there's a free version that plays 5 mins of video to see if it will play what you want. It's the only video player besides stock (that I've come across) that fades out the status bar at the bottom of the screen, a MUCH appreciated feature. More video players need to do this or we need more people to support this player.

good find!
...are you from cuba?

I use Vplayer (from the market). Seems to work ok so far, I haven't tested all the file types yet though.

I try and use the default player if possible (as it using hardware decoding) but otherwise I use Moboplayer.

Rock player! it plays every format!

MoboPlayer, no lag with MKV files. Lovely

mVideoplayer is running fine. It plays all my 720p High Profile mkv's (re-encoded according to the guide @xda).
Moboplayer and Rockplayer were also playing the files, but together with subtitles (srt's) they didn't get the job done (smoothly without subtitles, but with much lag when subtitles where shown) where mVideoplayer does it right.
I will give Littleplayer a try, because of hiding the status bar. Hopefully it's capable of playing subtitles.
Unfortunately Littleplayer does not support subtitles, but I like the hidden dockbar very much. If I could mix Littleplayer with mVideoplayer I would have the perfect videoplayer.

I don't know, it just plays all my movies from the start. I was experimenting with almost all players, but none of them were good for my demands (working subtitles). mVideoplayer plays every movie which I've encoded. I don't know in what way you open the movies, but I start them from an explorer, not from within the program itself. Maybe that works. I also had these problems with Rockplayer and Moboplayer. All my mkv's are re-encoded from the guide found here @ xda.
All movies should be re-encoded to change the ac3 sound to aac, otherwise you don't have any audio! I think this solves the no-sound issue with the mkv's.

Can you share this link for the guide?
My 720p or 1080p LOST Blu-Ray rips are playing in amazing quality on MOBO player but no sound unfortunately. I installed all the codecs from MOBO but still no luck. The picture quality is impressive though.

Doing a quick search i came up with this:

I meant this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1060825
When you're on HC 3.1 you don't have to encode the video anymore, only the ac3/DTS sound to aac to have sound on the TF. Then, the guides above will also be good enough and these will take less time to encode. When you're on HC 3.01 you have to encode video too.
I just used the attached presets from my link and I got perfect videoquality and sound, with seperate srt's I also have subtitles.

I had been using RockPlayer on my Android 2.2 GTab and it was my best choice for video playback. When I got my Android 3.1 TF, RockPlayer Lite would work but you couldn't activate it because of the HC OS. They have a new HC 3.1 release now and it works perfect for me and activates perfect. (I did have to buy another license but a great program and worth the $9.99 for me...)

Best video app?

Whats the best app for video? This is my first android so i don't know what is "best." i need it to play MKV, Mp4, AVI, etc.... all @ HD.

MX Video Player

Thanks i will try it.

MX works very good on Fire.
Just watched Modern Family mkv in HD (720p), hardware accelerated, without lags and nothing.
PS. The only problem was the audio channel that didn't work in HW mode. Just changed that to SW decoding and everything was fine.

what about vplayer?

I have always trusted in VLC Player, however, technically its still in closed beta for Android, and not available for direct download via the Market.
With the OP being new to Android, I guess I might be expecting a little too much to say, Google for it (VLC-neon.apk), and sideload it?! But I'm putting it out there anyway!

How do you get it to work where you the gray pullup bar on the bottom doesn't interfere with the onscreen controls? Also, do you know if it can stream from Dropbox/Sugarsync? I haved some vids on SS that I stream on Moboplayer, but can't get them to stream on MX.
