Hey guys. I finally rooted and installed CM7 latest nightly. I do miss the stock music and video players which have DTS support. Does anyone know where I can get these? And if/how I can I install them in CM7?
Also is my g2x still Divx ceritified with CM7? Not sure if it because of hardware or software. Thanks very much guys.
I made a backup of the OTA in case I really miss them.
Thanks.

From what I have gathered the SGS supports a lot more video/audio formats than Nexus S out of the box (correct me if I am wrong). Will it be possible to port these codecs from the SGS over to the NS?
Video Player Nexus S
Helps. Need a video player for Nexus S. I switched from my G2 to this. With the G2, i used ArcMedia and it played pretty much anything without any conversion. Now all i get is FCs on the Nexus S. Sad panda i am right now.

[Q] How to play vidoes/movies on Nexus S?
So i was thinking about watching a movie this afternoon on my brand new Nexus S and started looking for some sort of video player under the appications. Is it true that the phone doesnt come with any kind of Video Player? How do i watch movies? What format to use for the movies? I download all my movies and they're all .avi. All the help, comments and suggestions are highly appreciated.
AVI is just a container. It can hold any kind of codec inside. I heard people reccomend rockplayer is good though. Try that and report back on how it works.
Rockplayer doesn't work. Lots of players crashes on the Nexus S right now. They all need to be updated.

You're right. Nothing works at the moment. Is it true our nexus came with absolutely no video player?

When I try to open a video file from astro, among the choices of program given to me is one called "movies"; this uses the same icon as the "gallery" proram, comes preloaded on the phone, and also fails to open most video formats.
Playing M4P via Meridian and it works great.

Let me look up meridian. I guess I am gonna have to convert from avi to the extension you mentioned.

Gallery is the video player.

So is the issue that the nexus s doesn't come with an xvid codec or that apps with software decoding of the codecs like rockplayer just need to be updated ? Sorry if I'm a little dense about this.
I guess the 3rd party apps need to be updated.

So is there a specific file type that the galley plays? I just created a movie folder with 2 avi files but gallery isn't showing anything other than pictures on the same storage.

M4P is a .h264 container. Most videos on the internet or torrents for phones come in M4P format. Best quality for the size.
Most phones can play M4P right out of the box. YouTube is a big supporter of the container.

quick question regarding the camera, how do you upload videos to picasa.
I went to the gallery and hit menu to get the option to share, but I only see the option there when its photos. I thought you can upload videos also.
I could not find a way to upload on mine. I have just used "Picasa Uploader" from the market. It's free and uploads video and pictures.

Nothing that I have ran across....that would make sense to include your service in the phone.

Yeah I know.
BTW did you check the videos you uploaded on picasa from your nexus?
I just uploaded one using the same app you said, and it seems that the quality is not the same than that which was taken on the phone. Its a much lesser one.
Alright, I just flashed the latest and greatest Bali kernel to my phone, and noticed that when I take a video with the camcorder at any resolution i get an audio lag on play back in the stock video player and double twist. When I play them on my computer or upload them to Youtube, the lag is gone.
Curiously, I had this problem before I flashed the kernel, but all the videos I had prior to the flashing are now fixed in that respect. The only difference is I can see and hear the difference while the video is recording.
I've seen posts about this for the I9000 as well as other phones, but none for this specific phone, on top of there being virtually no known fix to my knowledge. I would really appreciate any insight on this topic. I know it isn't being caused by the kernel. Can anyone shed some light on this problem?
I also get that problem but i think i also noticed that problem with stock...my brother's Vibrant also had that problem on stock.. idk why they have that issue
Well I am going to flash a rom on here tonight and see if that yields any results.

try going into cwm --> advanced --> fix permissions. if not. look into icbnb or the audiophile roms. they have a fix for 1080p recording.
Yea..some roms dont have the audio lag..abd audiophile doesnt have 1080p recording yet
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA Premium App
Well I just got around to flashing ICBINB with theme. Still got the problem. Thanks for the tips Jager, but something is still up. :\
On a happier note, I would like to thank everyone who develops on this phone. I couldn't be happier with ICBINB, and the honeycomb theme for that matter. It's just wonderful.
Keep up the good work.

I just said that there wasn't 1080p because someone had said that there was a "fix for 1080p"... didn't mean to say it as rushing you to finish it faster.. thanks for working on it though

No rush Raver.
but alas, double twist has been uninstalled. I even tried a few players from the market to no avail. Thanks though.
I'm am curious to know if this miracle of 1080 on our phones would fix such a problem. I bid you good luck on your endeavors Mr. Raver. As for me, I shall try to dig deeper into this problem.
Is there anyway we can get an apk of the default LG video player for CM7 based ROMs possibly, or is it one of those system apk's that doesn't like custom ROMs like the Lg camera? I like everything the CM7 ROMs have to offer, but this is the big thing that is avoiding me from flashing. I'm a frequent video watcher and I love the DTS mobile.

want DTS on my g2x with CM
it would be appreciated alot if i can have default video player with DTS feature(zip or an apk) that i can install on my G2X after flashing a custom rom
I don't think its possible the app requires LG files that aren't present in the cm7/cm9 roms

With DSP manager and a Kernel with voodoo sound, you can get better sound than DTS would ever deliver.
i use mx video player.. works good for me... With DSP manager (i am using Singh UI currently and it says it has Beats Audio) probably thats why.. i like it so far

+1. Unless its an OTA based rom, you can't use any LG apps, whether it be the Camera, Video Player, etc.

Any other folks having issues with no video, only audio on all versions of Netflix running ICS 4 for Optimus V? reflashed to any GB rom and Netflix works fine, but with ICS all I get is audio with no video.
Thanks to all the devs and their hard work!

high quality videos wont work
only low quality works in ics
Odd. HQ videos play over smb using Max player and Netflix worked fine on other GB rooms. Oh well. Got me a Skyrocket now!
I do plan on developing roms as I've been writing software for more years than I care to count. Just wish I had access to more devices. I wonder if a device trading/donation site would be a good idea.

Hi, Netflix newer versions are with hdcp protection, download may/16 version from apkmirror.
I can play some videos with vlc. But any and all youtube players say this video can not be played click to try again. Again, I've tried the official youtube app wonder player and a slew of others. I've even tried installing a codec pack flashable zip that was supposed to help but didn't. I can play using a JB build but that build runs so much slower on this old dx2 which other than that works much better. And this phone has much better reception than my sgs3 ever dreamed about.
Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks for any help.
