Guys, a little info here. I have HTC Advantage 7510. Usually I play my encoded Video using Coreplayer and encode it using PocketDivxEncoder. In Coreplayer I can watch the encoded movie in one condition : NEVER CHOOSE ATI IMAGEON as the video driver (setting in corepalyer : menu--->tools--->preferences--->video). It won't work....very laggy...
So I use Direct draw or RAW frame buffer and the watching experience is very acceptable.
Amazingly, after I encoded one same movie using HD encoder (in order to test and compare and to know how good this HD encoder is) I CAN CHOOSE ATI IMAGEON as the video driver in coreplayer, and I HAVE A VERY VERY VERYYYYY GOOD result when benchmarking through coreplayer compared to Direct Draw or RAW FRAME BUFFER. Though I could still use Direct Draw and RAW frame buffer and the movie is still watchable, but using ATI IMAGEON gave the BEST RESULT in bechmark. Not to mention fast action scene in the movie I encoded runs and displays smoother.
Hmm...strange, but very happy Wanna say BIG THANKS to ID : projection that makes all this available to my HTC advantage 7510...wooohooo......
Get the HD Encoder from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467112
After that open the video you just encoded using coreplayer (remember to set the video to ATI IMAGEON in coreplayer) then play it....Tell me what you guys get ?
Yes, this encoded video more faster with ATI Imageon output. Some progress...
Thank you,it is right
Incredible, its really fast!
Link your favourite video converters for your mobile devices and the settings you use!
Mine:
Phone: Galaxy S
Cucusoft ultimate converter / AlltoAVI
I get pretty decent results and both can encode subs, 2,000 bitrate, original framerate
Cucusoft can create some green artifacts though, and alltoavi is a bit slow with h.264 files
I tried RockPlayer Lite and some other players in the market but none work.
Please help.

Try doubletwist. Plays mp4

It's not really just a question of what player - it's a question of what 1080p mp4 files too. Tegra 2 is extremely limited in what it will play back in a 1080p mp4 so how the mp4 is encoded matters as well. I think I read somewhere that it's baseline profile only...and that's with hardware acceleration. Software only, I'm guessing that no file of that size will play - it's too many pixels to push around.
And Rockplayer is my mp4 player of choice (to the extent I actually registered for it to get rid of the ads and the R). In hardware mode, it doesn't bat an eye at my 720p mp4s in main profile.

x2. If the 1080p video is encoded the right way, even the vanilla player will play it.
I've been using h263 1080p / 720p MP4's and they work well. Even some MKV's will work with the vanilla player, if encoded a certain way.

Any luck getting h264 1080p to play? Any specific software you recommend to convert files to appropriate encoding?
I've had success in the past doing it and watching 1080p .mov movie trailers but haven't done so since I've upgraded to TnTLite 5.0. I would recommend Handbrake for encoding and then playing with it. From using Mediainfo on them, I think they were Level 4.1 main profile with 2 reference frames, no Cabac.
I found this on fudzilla from google (I can provide a link if needed)
First of them is H.264 with sub standards Baseline Profile (B frames) — 1080p/20Mbps, Main Profile (B Frames, CAVLC) — 1080p, Main Profile (B Frames, CABAC, no weighted prediction) — 720p/6Mbps and High Profile (B Frames, CABAC, no weighted prediction).
Tegra 2 also supports High Profile (B Frames, CABAC, no weighted prediction), MPEG-4 (Simple, B frames and ASP Profiles) — 1080p/8Mbps, H.263 (Profile 0) — 720×576/4Mbps, DiVX (DiVX 4/5) — 1080p/8Mbps, XviD (XviD Home Theater) — 1080p/8Mbps, MPEG-2 (Main Profile @ Main Level) — 720×576/10Mbps, VP6 (simple and advanced profile) — 720p30/2Mbps, Sorenson (simple and advanced profile) — 720×576/4Mbps, JPEG up to 80 Mpixel per second.

Caveat - 1080p encoding is slow and the files are big. Unless you are doing 1080p encoding for some other purpose, I wouldn't do it just to play on the G-Tab. It really seems to be stretching the limits of the technology. I prefer to do a really good quality 720p encode instead. They look equally good on the G-Tab at a smaller file size - and on a 60" plasma I still can't tell that they're worse. I had floated my encode parameters for handbrake somewhere back in this section.
vitalplayer, vanilla player? What is better, what supports more formats and it is more convenient?

The only luck I've had with hardware accelerated video (the high-def stuff) is Rockplayer or vanilla player. Don't like the lack of file browsing you get with the vanilla player. You can get around that by using a file explorer to open your videos instead of the gallery.
I have a couple of mkvs that Rockplayer won't play (SD ones at that), so maybe an experiment is in order!

Added: 1080p test clips, faster links
Changed: generalize reference to all tablets and not only Tegra 2
Just received it - before ordering it, I saw some mixed messages on media playback, so I decided to conduct my own semi-scientific tests - meaning grab a bunch of samples of typical media I consume (tv/movie/anime) with some key differences (264/265 8/10 bit, 1080p/2160p) just to see what this tablet could handle. I was actually pleasantly surprised. My test bed was MX Player with the all-in-one decoder pack.
Smooth Playback via HW/HW+
- h.264 8bit 1080p
- x.265 8bit 1080p
- x.264 8bit 2160p (was a 120mbit file as well - zero chop)
Smooth Playback via SW (not supported by HW)
- h.264 10bit 1080p
- x.265 10bit 1080p
- AVC 10bit 1080p
Not-at-all smooth Playback via SW (Not supported by HW)
- x.265 10bit 4K (this is by far the most popular 4k format)
Not tested
- 4k/264/10bit, 4k/265/8bit (couldn't find any)
- anything above 24/30 FPS (I don't personally care about that for movies/tv/anime, but it did play 60fps/1080p in youtube just fine)
Conclusions
Yeah - lack of 10bit hardware decoding is a minor bummer, all but eliminating this as a 4K personal media consumption device, but its spiffy CPU seems to handle anything 1080p/10bit just fine, making it adequate for my demands.
