+ 1 for mobo player or rockplayer, with these u won't need to re encode anything.

DICE Player. Plays 720p mkvs smooth.
Look no else.
Good alternative is MoboPlayer and RockPlayer though. But if you want to watch MKVs and all that, DICE Player is what you're looking for.

Are any of them free i dont want to pay off the dtore as ibread that my bank will charge me as a import currency

Look for the post in general that I replied to someone asking the same question. Miro video converter is the easiest but no batch processing. Pick nexus preset.

Best video app

RockPlayer and Vplayer work both good for be (newest Versions of both) I tried yxplayer months ago and it was very slow but i didnt tested the newest Version of it.
Rockplayer

Nexus s play hd?

im going to upgrade to a nexus s 4g this month, and i have 2 questions about playing videos on the phone:
from what i understand, the nexus cant shoot HD, but can it play HD videos that i load onto the phone?
is there an app that can play .avi cuz id really hate to convert my videos.
No I dont think HD video work, I forget the app but there is one to play .Avi it wasnt flawless tho
RockPlayer. AVIs are flawless, MKVs are flawless as well but there is a bug with no audio being outputted when hardware decoding MKVs. .AVIs have absolutely no problem
MoboPlayer is pretty good too
Ill havd to try rockplayer is it free? I tried a app that needed unlocking after 15 days

thanks for the info
i meant really. rockplayer is still my recommendation of choice, paid app of course (you have to get it through his website)
I Dont know it man, trying the free version on the market and it keeps freezing every time I open a 720p AVI file
my nexus s love mobo player.
720p working great with it. (subtitle support also)

Any good FREE media player?

I want a good media player that can handle divx and MKV files. I heard about diceplayer, but its not free. Is there a good free player or thats the only option?
rockplayer works well for me, but there is a limit it can handle, i think 720p mkv is the highest...dont quote me on that tho, i dont watch a lot of HD mkv's on my fone, thats what my lappy is for
720P is fine for me.. thanks!
I really like Vplayer
I currently use moboplayer but I'm not sure if it meets your needs.
I heard mobo player is best. I have it as well

I use mobo player..try it...

giving mobo a shot now, i really like the interface...lets put it through its paces
EDIT* wow..just wow...i stand corrected, go with mobo player, its f'ing sick, really slick interface, and the controls are superintuitive and unobtrusive
I use Vplayer because Moboplayer gives me audio issues on some MKV files.

try this one
MX Video player is great, is supposedly optimized for dual core and has hardware acceleration enabled. it has played everything i've tried.. u might like it. free version has ads but you won't see them if you have a modified hosts file

Vplayer was my favourite until the developer went against his original statement of it will always be free and then changed it to a paid app.
MoboPlayer has played every video i have ever had my my Sensation (and previously DHD) without any problems.

I had a couple MKV's that it wouldn't produce sound for. I wish it played everything I threw at it because the interface looks better than Vplayer.

The BEST Media Player for Android - Bsplayer

I searched the forums for this and did not find it.
bsplayer is the best video player for Android ever! It will play any media file that I throw at it. It will also stream VOB files from a share drive!
I am not the dev for this but I wanted to give him exposure so that more and more people use it. For those who have used it what are your thoughts?

It's a matter of personal preferences of course, but I've found that MX Player interface suits me better, but otoh I also keep bs for local network streaming which it does much better.

ya, i also find mx player interface suiting me better...
best
it is realy best player
in my opinion , RockPlayer2 is the best media player on android, with really great UI and performance, and It has some unique feature, like 'Rockshare" , users can share their videos with friends just use their phone, but not exchange SD-card.
yes, after installing dozens, this is the only one that plays my 4 gig 720p DTS audio mkv file. But the video color quality can be better.
I always go back to vplayer

.mkv movie plays skippy?

I have the lorax blue ray rip. Its 720p, 3.5 gb large, .mkv file, and encoded in x256.
When i play it with rock player its all skippy and not even watchable, but it plays the audio just fine.
When i play it with the default player the video is just beautiful, no skipping at all. However no audio plays. What can i do to fix this? Other blue ray rips play just fine and the lorax i have plays fine in other computers.

Just encode it into something that plays. Mp4 on a phone will still look beautiful. I use handbrake but there free or free to try out there. Check cnet downloads.

I perfer mxplayer. I get 0 issues out of it
Motorola lied and I'm still locked mb865
Mx player is the best, even vlc plays a broad spectrum of formats. A HD movie in avi format wasnt playing properly in MX, which played flawlessly in vlc.

+1000 for MX Player. It is so good I paid the $5.60 for the paid version, which does nothing extra except no ads. But I felt the Korean developer deserved some money because it is such a good product.
Dice Player is the best, at least on the Xoom.
