.mkv movies - HTC Desire S

I have tried many apps for testing videos and I stopped to MX Video Player and MoboPlayer. I`m trying to see an .mkv movie (1.5 gb). Using hardware decoding I don`t have sound and using SW I have sound but image slows down. Any ideas? (all apps tested have this problem)

Hmm.. i haven't tried playing a .mkv yet.. but i've tried a 1.5 .avi file w/o any problem.. hope someone can jump in here re your question.
m using Mobo btw..

.avi files are playing fine.

m4v is fine here. Haven't tried mkv yet though.

I had issues with. mkv as well. Since then using .avi or.mp4 and no problems.

mkv's don't seem to work. Especially if they're HD. I think the only way to watch them is to convert the file unless your phone natively supports mkv which the desire s does not.

HD mkv works for me in MX Player when I overclock to 1.2 ghz. No syncing issues.
But does not work on stock ROM.

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 watch 720p video files that are in the mkv container just fine on the sgs using rock player what are the video and audio codecs inside of the mp4

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.

Best video player for sensation

Tried dice player. It only shows half my videos
Tried vplayer and rockplayer.
Rockplayer seems much more crisp and clear than vplayer.
Anyone know any good ones out there?

I use MoboPlayer. It plays most format, have nice looking UI and controls.
I use the "Meridian" player, it has awesome gesture support.
But no idea on what it support, cause i recode everything.
i'm using vital player, plays almost everything, and also subs
can you suggest any player support mkv and external .srt sub?
moboplayer does show sub but no audio. dice with audio but no sub

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

Mkv 720p player

Sorry for my poor Eng.
Today I tried buzz player and it played my mkv 720p files with no lag at all (with internal buzz decoder), thought it suddenly stopped after period of time and then I couldn't see any media files, had to close and opened the app again. There're still some mirror problems with this player when working on honeycomb but I think it can play 720p mkv smoothly.
I tried moboplayer, mplayer, rockplayer and vplayer, rockplayer and vplayer couldn't play at all, mobo and mplayer work laggy.
So hopefully someone will have a look.
Plz correct me if I am wrong.

Video Playback

How is the Video playback on our Sensation?
I'm currently at Android Revolution HD Rom.
And I can run some 720P 600MB MKV BDRIPs
But when I tried a 1.5GB 720P MP4 File it won't work and the phone seems lags/freezes. Black screen no sound
Btw I'm using Mobo Player
Anyone can recommened a better player?
I just want to test the power of Sensation plus the large screen with qHD Resolution is really a great treat.
Diceplayer is the best

i made a thread about this a few days ago. I hate to keep comparing this phone to my hd2, but this one does not handle simple processes fluidly like that one did. the hd2, once you had the right player, handled all codecs properly and it did not matter how big the file was. I played a 2 gig Watchmen .avi movie and had NO hiccups. I have gone through 5 players to try and find the one that will handle movies smoothly. None works as it should. I did not have to convert movies either. This is really irritating me.
Try arcmedia. It's the only player that won't cut off sound when I watch a movie for nor than 5 minutes. Ive tried 11-12 players and this is the only one that worked.
Hope it helps

i am using DicePlayer 1.1.3. It is hardware accelerated and I can play 720p TVShow mkv (1,09GB each) flawlessly. 720p and 1080p mp4 can play in default media player app. I have even tried 1080p mkv, file was source.code.2011.BluRay.1080p.DTS.x264-CHD DicePlayer handled it wery well without any lag and video & DTS audio in sync all the way.
I dont know if I am allowed to attach apk's, if I am I will attach the file later...
HW Acceleration don't work. Using Dice Player 1.1.4, Just blackscreen but the seek is still counting, with no sound. With Software Acceleration tried it on MoboPlayer. It got video but the sound is ugly fcked up
newset diceplayer version is v1.5.2
try diceplayer trial version.
I bought vplayer at first, but because it only used SW rendering the quality was far from great. Then I bought Dice player, as it supported HW acceleration. I've had my share of problems with it, but it was definitely worth it. Updates almost daily removed the crash after 5 minutes, improved the interface, added better subtitle support. I don't understand, why people mention the version 1.1.4, which is quite old. If you base your decision on such an old version you're making a mistake. There's really a huge difference since then and the program is updated very often.
Picture quality is just awesome and I managed to play everything so far. Didn't try HD yet, as I only have limited card space.
so its not just me....
From looking at all the responses it appears that some of us are having a problem with the way the Sensation is handling video playback. I have already paid for apps that worked on a lesser phone. This is a real concern to me.

Mkv files, no sound?

I got my tf300 yesterday and it great except for one thing. I get no sound when i play my mkv 720 movies or series? I have tried both streaming and local. Tried diceplayer, the built in player and moboplayer without success. MX player worked when i turned of h/w and used s/w instead but then the movies "lagged". Cant get it to work, Anyone have a clue what i can do to make it work?

MX will play them via HW but you need to click the sound key next to the HW/SW button and select the other audio track. Worked for me.
Ah, that works, Thanks. Anyone get any other player to work?
I have had good results using BS player lite. And it is cool because you can change brightness by swiping up and down in the left side of the screen and change volume the same way on the right

DO NOT DOWNLOAD VLC PLAYER FOR ANDROID!
VLC is still in development, and apks have not been released. If you find a VLC apk, it is not real or it is based on very early, probably buggy code. One person that mentioned having it said that s/he had very intrusive ads. Judging by all other VLC releases on every other platform, the real VLC for Android will not have ads, or at least not obnoxious, intrusive ads.
Diceplayer plays 1080p nicely, as long as you don't got dual audio.
Glad to hear MX player can handle different audiostreams! Now i can get my anime on!
I'll guess i will use MX or bsplayer then. I just find it a bit odd that the same files plays with no problem on my galaxy S2 with dice player..

SOLUTION!!!!
Absolute EASIEST SOLUTION!!!!!
Im running serviio from my pc and typically steam to my samsung tv's
But the easiest solution to stream directly to my s3 (i747 aokp task650)
Is:
Download and install these two apps
1.Bubble upnp https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bubblesoft.android.bubbleupnp
2. Joe VLC https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=the.joevlc
Ive used mx and bs in the past, but this solution is just too easy and fast...
P. S. Ive streamed everything from small avi family guy episodes to 15gb mkv bluray files and this setup is boss..
Only issues i found was minute pixelation when in full screen mode on large files 12gb+ and some buffering when i jump around in said video but other than that its awesome.....
Enabling hw decoding in JoeVlc app takes care of any pixel issues but eats battery...
Happy streaming!
got it
yo
just do to ( in the MX player) Settting -> Decoder--> download custom codec
than u will be direct to a website .. just follow the instraction
worked perfect for me..
thank u it works good
VLC media player has been officialy released some time ago works great with .mkv
