AVI is a container, xvid and divx are codecs.... even myvideo.divx is in an AVI container.
OP is seeing a codec issue, just needs a player that supports the codecs he's trying to use.

Rock Player Lite or Mobo Player works fantastic.

+1 for Mobo

speaking of moboplayer.... they have so many codec packs optimized for different chipsets... which one should we use?

ARM7 - but MoboPlayer will install the proper one by himself.

I use Moboplayer, Vplayer and Rockplayer. They all play divx, avi, xvid and the occasional mkv.

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 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.

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.

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] 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:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1092965
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1102243
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.

It's working on my mkv files very well. I also had to switch audio to software decode.

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.

Playing MKV DTS Videos?

What's the best option for playing MKV DTS movies on the TF300? All the new players won't do DTS audio, but I hear that older versions of some software, like Dice will. But, I'm not sure that the older versions will support/use the Tegra 3.
Thanks in advance.
Found solution, but shuttering: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34649108&postcount=16

Says it does multi-core decoding. I'd like know how well it plays your mkv files.
MX Player with h/w+ decoding plays mine just fine. I use DSP Manager for all my Audio.
Thx, but VLC doesn't play MKV DTS videos.

So you have no shuttering issues even with 1080p KMV DTS videos?
The shuttering is probably network related as I'm streaming it over WiFi, especially large files.
There's also XBMC for Android, I haven't tried it yet, but going to now: http://xbmc.org/download/
XBMC for Android works but isn't great at playing MKV files, really slow, shuttering.

Have you found a reliable option mate? I tried MX, Dice, VLC and all have problems with DTS. There is an option to use external filters in MX, but its unreliable. I tried several files, with bitrates from 2-3k to 20+k. MX with HW+ encoding plays smoothly, but no sound.
I think I tried SopCast player and it might have played DTS, don't really remember, maybe you can give it a try.
I'm using Galaxy Nexus. If you've found a solution, don't hesitate to PM me.
