[Q] Playing m2ts/AVCHD Video on Transformer - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was wondering if anyone who's received their transformer could tell me if you can play m2ts video files on the tablet? One site I found said they used rock player lite on the xoom so I'm guessing it wouldn't be much different on the transformer. I'm a relative novice when it comes to video but what I hope to be able to do is record games (I coach basketball in the winter) and then watch them afterwards on the tablet. Because I'm looking to watch them right after I do not have the opportunity to convert the files to something else. Wondering if anyone could help out and shed some light on this. Thanks in advance!

Any help here?

I've tried playing my ripped blurays (m2ts format) on every player I know of with no success. I've tried stock player, rock player lite, moboplayer, tried streaming through mynet, and nothing has worked for me. I'm not saying it won't work (I'm still a noob), but nothing has worked for me so far.

Need Help. What player can play stream video?

Hi all,
I need some help. I couldn't find any info on my problem in TF forums, hence created a new topic.
The problem is that I can't watch an Online-TV (I use etvnet(dot)com to watch some Russian TV) on my TF. I tried stock player and Mobo player, but both of them can't open the file.
I don't know all the technical details, but I know that the video streams as WMV-file using MMS protocol. Any suggestions on what player can play it?
So far the only way I found was to watch it from my PC using Splashtop HD, however it's kinda slow and works awful in "full-screen" mode.
You can try plex to stream it from your PC to your TF101. Or use handbrake to re-encode it to something that the tf101 can play (search the tf101 forums for handbrake)

Archos Video Player

I've always liked Archos software for video and I'd love to get this running on the Note 10.1 but it sin't compatible.
Has anyone tried to side load it?
If I purchase it for one of my compatible devices, how would I pull it out and get it over to my Note 10.1?
Yeah.
Works great - looks great BUT... I actually use VLC beta might not look as good but plays everything!

I bought on my note 2 and transferred a titanium backup over. .however. .I find mx player better and more built in codecs..
It looks nice but functions poor

Can you tell me if it plays mp4?
Can't you purchase extra codecs? I use mvideoplayer now but really wanted to play around with the Archos player.

Ya sure when I get home I'll test one for you. .I bought the extra codecs but it didn't help. .
It pays everything I put on it but like mkv for example. .it stutters and jitters..

have you tried the stock player. it plays almost everything and the stock player widget displays the last viewed video (kinda like archos, i still have my 101 and still thin it was the best media player until this tablet came along).
man, just check out the app and it reminds me of the old 101 media player that i loved. might have to snatch it up and hope the fix up some of the problems.
bought it an tested it. i'll keep it since it merges the functions of mizuu along with a decent player. it's not as good as stock since you can't use the entire screen (it doesn't hide the bottom bar). it also chokes on a few videos. i haven't check the media info to see what it could be that makes it stutter, however going into preferences and selecting "force software accel" fixes that. given that bs player doesn't seem to use that more more in hardware vs software accelleration i'm hoping archos does the same.
there's no widget like in the old verion on my a101 and there's no way to select default folders. it automatically searches for the files, but like mizuu you can search a db to grab media info and then it'll organize the files into tv or movies.
so far i've played wmv, avi, flv, mkv and mp4. the only problem was one mkv that i had to force software playback. it good and worth the $5, but i'm not sure it'll replace samsung's default payer just yet.
There is a free All Codec for Archos package in Play Store. After using it, Archos plays everything.
I use Archos actually, since it plays 1080p MKV HD material without stuttering like MX Player does for me. Will go for VLC tomorrow, I will have a look if there is this problem with HD material.
Love the ui, havent experienced anything like it, its beautiful. The problem is that when I tried it, it failed to output hdmi, there was no video just black screen. That and the fact that it doesnt uses the full screen keeps this from being the best imo. Stock player works wonders and does what its supposed to do but not as pretty.

i agree completely. it's got the best ui of any media player i've used, but no other app besides the stock player can use the whole screen.
on another note, my nook hd+ is the inly tabket that plays netflix in full screen. i wonder why gn101 doesn't.
Unfortunately it didn't pick up any of the videos I have at all so its not much good to me. They're all on an external sd which is the only possible reason I can think of, anyone else had the same issue?
When I click on the icon at the right in Archos, I get fullscreen, no problems so far, tested with 1080p mkv
What it makes better than VLC for me is UPnP/DLNA and SMB(!!!) support, that VLC doesn't have so far by now. Since I have several Synologys in my LAN, I want to use them and not my computer as streaming host.
I decided to give it a try since it is on sale today for $2.50. I cannot figure out how to port it from my GS3 to my Note 10.1. Both are rooted and have TiBu.
I have already tried to backup the app on my GS3, move it to the Note and restore it via TiBu but maybe I chose the wrong options because it did not work.
How did you get it into the Note 10.1?

[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!!

online videos with sound but no image

Hello,
My tf101 is currently running dolphin or default browser on katkiss 4.4.4 and when i try to watch online videos apart from youtube it plays the sound but the image stays black. I was wondering if there's anyone that had the same problem and solved it? Videos on youtube website play well but other streams do not load, when i play from youtube website it appears to be using a different video player from the rest which i assume it would be why im not able to see the others. Is there a way to change this?
Thank you!
