Video player and music player

So i just came from the hd2 and i liked the music player on it. The evo's player is way different and im not happy with it. is there a way to get the hd2s or similar player layout?
Video.. what program can i get that will play mp4 avi and all the other codecs?
Do i need to root to be able to do any of this? or can i install some app?
any help would be nice.

Try DoubleTwist for Audio and mVideoPlayer for Video

Rockplayer wotks with most codecs, but is still in beta.

does rockplayer have a website to download the app?

Found this one. its actually very nice.. almost exactly what i was looking for.

What about the video player? I can't get some of my mp4 videos to play on my EVO. I will get sound but no picture.

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.

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

Best video player for sensation

Tried dice player. It only shows half my videos
Tried vplayer and rockplayer.
Rockplayer seems much more crisp and clear than vplayer.
Anyone know any good ones out there?

I use MoboPlayer. It plays most format, have nice looking UI and controls.

I use the "Meridian" player, it has awesome gesture support.
But no idea on what it support, cause i recode everything.

i'm using vital player, plays almost everything, and also subs

can you suggest any player support mkv and external .srt sub?
moboplayer does show sub but no audio. dice with audio but no sub

send yout srt file to me

Hi juami,
I have sent some srt files to you. At the moment, none of the sub are displayed, regardless of type of movie (avi, m4v, mp4, mkv). Please check and let me know when it is fixed. Looking forward to viewing videos with Dice in its full glory.

Mobo player is the best

i use moboplayer and mvideoplayer
but my phone is sgs2

i use RockPlayer which play everything with great quality.
I loaded a HD 720P clips to my storage card and i play them via RockPlayer and its great quality both Voice & Video

SW decoding Player : vPlayer is the best for Sensation.
vPlayer is multi-threaded app. it can use full dual core.
but other player - rock , mobo , vital use only single core.
HW decoding Player : Diceplayer is the best.
Rock/v/vital/mobo/qq can't use hw decoder ( if file is not supported from system)
if file format is mp4, all player can play HD.
but file format is MKV(+DTS), you can see huge lag.
only diceplayer can play MKV(+DTS/FLAC) HD movies.(+longer battery life )

thx for your post, i tried Dice player and its playing well mkv files

+1 for Dice Player, I have all the others installed too, but Dice Player is the best (I watch a lot of 720p MKV, some use DTS sound).

hi,
just checked Dice Player on my Sensation. its really great app. showing 1080p videos almost flawlessly.
my question is, if dice is lowering the fps to show video more fluently?
Thanks

[Q] What is your video (movie) play back with various video players?

For some reason EVERY video player I have has some flaw in it when it comes to video playback on the Sensation. Rock Player used to be my go to player on the hd2. On the sensation, I am getting slow playback and the voices will not sync properly. mVideo is the same thing, but more so. I used to use this one for for music videos. With the voices not in sync it really sucks. The video player that comes with the Sensation has the best sound, but I put in an .avi of a movie and the playback is pixelated.
I don't convert movies because I never did it on the hd2 and the two codecs I primarily use, .avi and .mp4, have NEVER given me an issue. Should I be more worried than I am? Is it only my Sensation? Should I take it back? your thoughts/experiences...

DICE Player has worked for me. It has a trial as well.

I used the default player and MoboPlayer

mobo only for dice player FC always

mkv playing with no sound :S Player Suggestions that don't lag ?

So playing mkv files with original videoplayer and mx player streams the video really well but with no sound :/ Do you guys know any good video player that doesn't lag, run smooth and support sound. ? btw Vplayer is lagging but sound works.

in this section, look for the thread regarding blu ray ripping. the answer is in there.

There are some posts already about this. I use BSPlayer.

bsplayer ftw

ffmpeg is the key
With BS Player or Dice Player, you need to use ffmpeg library. You need to copy a file named libffmpeg.so to /mnt/sdcard/. Sorry, but XDA rules forbid me to post URLs (not 10 posts yet). If you need the file, i can send you a dropbox link by MP.

MKV is a container format, meaning it can contain multiple tracks for video and audio in different formats (even subtitles and chapters are supported). The sound track probably is in DTS format. There are only a few players around for android that can play DTS encoded audio. BSplayer and VPlayer.
Depending on the bitrate of the video, VPlayer does "lag" on some movies for me, BSplayer hasn't done that yet.
edit:
If you can to know what tracks and file encodings are in the mkv check out MediaInfo (windows) or mkvmerge GUI from MKVToolNix (cross platform).

BSplayer streams all my 1080p from my server flawless. The fact that it gets subs auto is amazing. Best player i tried so far tbh
