Mkv/720p or above movies - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, playing with my new toy. Have a DHD and quite experienced with rooting etc.
Im currently having some lag issues with mkv and or 720p or above movies. Tried mobo player and the normal one.
Currently have the revolver rom, feels quite good i like the update app which came with it. Going to try revHD rom later tonight to see if there is any improvements.
Whats a recomended video player or rom for movie stuff? Answers on a postcard, Thanks!

Also, hd video is really difficult for the Tegra 2 that barely handles 720p. You can have 1080p, and smooth, but it will most likely need to be re-encoded so that the hardware will like it... you might want to try to overclock, often that solves the issue, even if not always.
If you go for the re-encode way, use h264 basic profile, that's the biggest deal.

Thats really a bummer since i thought the tegra 2 is well capable to display atleast 720p mkv videos having a hd screen. Is it the tegra Architektur which doesnt play nicely with hd mkv material or just software related?

Really? The mkv videos I downloaded the other day works just fine.. but I guess it could be because I'm overclocking? I mean, it was 720 p and it was working way smoooth with Mobo so I don't know where your complaints come frmo..

It has to do with the type of encoding. You can get 1080p to play if you encode it right

just tried a 720p clip and it does play smoothly with HW encoding but can not play the sound back. Is it because of the sound track being dts 7.1 ch?
How long takes to convert a video with handbrake?

Don't reencode the videos. Use a MKV -> MP4 Tool to reencode the audiostream to aac. It's way faster.

Have a look at my tests http://painfullyrandom.blogspot.com/2011/08/testing-android-video-decoding.html and/or search here on XDA for Tegra hd video. Sadly it's not the best choice for video play... It works but it's far from optimal.

I've said it before, I'll say it again. Try Diceplayer. The only reason it won't playback ANY file well, is because the bit-rate is too high for Tegra 2. All the videos I download are 720P h264 and it plays them just fine. The only time it struggles is when there is fast panning (which results in a higher bitrate if it's a variable bitrate). All things said, I have no issues playing any videos, even those with 7.1 channel audio.
Also, use the search function. This is discussed at length in a few other threads in the transformer forums. I think it was specifically in the Themes/Apps forum.

yes, Dice Player is the best so far. Playing videos is a hit / miss with the rest of the free players...

same here but the audio is "only" AC3 5.1 the video is super smooth but there is no sound.

I don't know where you get your files, but I'm almost sure I don't want to go to that site.
Example:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/420077/Indiana Jones 4_HD 1080base.mp4
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/420077/Indiana Jones 4_HD 720main.mp4
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/420077/Indiana Jones 4_HD 480high.mp4
those are a few seconds from the trailer of Indiana Jones and the crystal skull grabbed from the PSN "some time" ago. Play them at 1ghz on the Transformer with Dice (or whatever you want), and see what works well... I encoded this stuff in a way that shows my point. Same bitrate for all of them.
The original file is main profile, full hd and slightly higher bitrate. Still plays at 1ghz.
Keep in mind that if you make the file hard to decode, the size could be quite small, once I've watched a reasonably good dvd rip that was 250mb. That's the whole point of h264 vs divx, same quality, smaller file. Or same size better quality, depending on your point of view

I just tried the dice player and it plays the test file without problems being 720p mkv. I think Asus should had intergrated such a mdiaplayer by default

Poor MKV 720p Playback

I was surprised that after using a captivate to play back 720p MKV files that the inspire would struggle so much with these files. I have tried almost every video playback application in the market and all stutter with 720p files. Is there a chance this will change or was their something special with the captivate ad 720p files?
The files are H264 L3.1 MKV's.
having the same problem as well, i transfered over a simple dvd rip and the playback wasnt terrible but it wasnt flawless 30+ fps like on the captivate, gonna try to convert using handbrake hoping that it will make a difference lol. Captivate played everything perfect even 1080p blue ray movies, kinda disapointed if there is no fix for this.
Rock player seemed better but no question that Captivate playback is better.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Dissapointed as well, the captivate played mostly everything I threw at it great, this one has some trouble, try V Player though, seems to be the best for me.

Video player for MKV MP4 HD...

anyone know a decent video player for TF? wiht Tegra2 it even can play decent 720p MKV...
Haven't tried it for MKV containers but Buzz Player works perfectly with x264 encoded mp4 encodes.
Would love to find a player that dims the on screen Honeycomb buttons like the stock player though.
mobo player with codec
change the setting of mkv to software acc' in the setting
I use RockPlayer. Works perfect for me. Don't think its on the market though.

Lite version is but not the full version. The watermark on the top left can be pretty annoying.
It's been mentioned in other forums- DICE Player works very well! The dev mentions in the app description that Tegra 2 might have some glitches, but so far it's been able to play most mkvs i throw at it- even those that mobo and mx (and others) play with no sound!
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.inisoft.mediaplayer.trial&feature=more_from_developer
sadly tegra 2 is unable to fully decode HD using its hardware. dice so far has the smoothest frame rate in all the players out there, but it still lag at certain scenes where there is a lot of movement or fighting. hoping they be able to solve the problem.
anyway was wondering by increasing the processing speed of the tegra 2, will it be able to process mkv better?

It has nothing to do with Tegra 2. Samsung's Galaxy S series are using Hummingbird and can fully decode 720p. It's all software and codecs.
You could always just convert your move to mp4, I've done it to loads of HD movies (LOTR and such) and they run great, even streaming through to the TV via HDMI.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA Premium App
well mkv works the best in dice player atm. hopefully they can optimize it for tegra.
DICE Player is the answer to your problem concerning MKVs. Give it a try, the developer is VERY active on the XDA forums especially in the Transformer forum.
Converting something to another format is unacceptable in the hardware that we're getting. And honestly, it's a waste of time to convert. Just get DICE Player and you won't ever have to convert again.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16224858#
Go there. The developer is actively talking in that thread. Another new version was released today to fix some problems with subtitles and multiple audio streams in a single MKV. Honestly, it's the best player and well worth the $4US to the dev.
MX player is the best the guy above ^ is 100% right.

[Q] Does the overclock improve video playback?

Just got my new transformer and im very happy with it except 720p mkv playback is horrible. but i knew that before i bought it since its still an outstanding device and im happy with it even if i have to run handlbreak once in a while. unless 720p mkv playback improves though i do plan to sell it and buy the new transformer 2 when that comes out.
anyway right now my transformer is running the stock firmware but its a b6O model so i should be able to root it if i want.
My question is, does overclocking improve the playback of 720p mkv files? because those are the only files im having trouble with and really the only reason to root my device right now since Netflix is working.
Thank you for reading this!
*EDIT* should have mentioned that dice player is my player of choice since it handles 720p mkv files the best out of all the players. but any answer is appreciated *EDIT*
It does, but not very effective. Tried using mxplayer.

The problem with the transformer is that it can decode H.264 but not all the profiles. A lot of the files downloaded off the internet may not be in a profile you can decode in hardware, but if you are encoding the files yourself you can get them to play fine if you encode them with the right settings.
I am sure OCing will help especially on files that are being decoded in software (ie, the CPU) but might not really help of the files are already being decoded in hardware (GPU).
I noticed that mkv don't play smoothly even in DICE player with supposed hardware acceleration.
Will overclock help with that?

yes overclocking helps with dice player. I pushed mine to 1.2Ghz and it can play decently almost every single 720pmkv i throw at it, though it will lag at certain places where the fps is higher.

choppy 1080p flash video playback on ARHD ICS

Hi guys,
I am currently using Android Revolution HD 6.5.1 XE on my Sensation and I have several major problems:
1. I realize that 1080p mkv videos that my phone can play smoothly on Gingerbread (including Youtube HD 1080p) now become laggy. Even with SD videos (fully HW accelerated), sometimes the playback is choppy as well (I use MX player and Dice player). Can anyone help me confirm whether you have the same problems? I believe ARHD ICS does not have GPU overclocked as on Gingerbread, hence the choppy video playback.
2. On random occasions, I cannot get any sound on any applications, but notification sounds and stock music player are working normally. I can still listen to music through the stock player but cannot get any sound for videos. Everything will return to normal when I restart the phone.
3. Wifi randomly turns on by itself. The last time I check, this problem seems to be unsolved, but I may be wrong.
Any kind souls willing to give me some directions to solve the above problems? ARHD Gingerbread ROM does not have any of the problems above, but I don't want to go back to Gingerbread.
Bump, still waiting...
Imo bad flash, I never had those problems. Video playback even on flash has been buttery-smooth.

Yes, ARHD ICS does not have GPU overclocked. But that shouldn't be the reason for your video playback problem. Because of your other problems I also believe in a bad flash...Try a reinstall.
Bad Flash or using a wrong kernel.
I have tried flashing the ROM 3 times (also redownload the ROM, check md5), with both stock kernel and Sebastian's kernel (at 1.2, 1.5, 1.7 Ghz) and the video playback is still quite bad. I just flash the latest 6.5.2 on my Sensation and it is still the same problem with video playback. Just to confirm, can you guys watch 1080p youtube hd video without any problems?
The playback problem disappear straight away when I go back to GB.
Like I said, yes, I can. In both the app and on Browser with flash player.

Hey man, in MX player, are you hardware accelerating or software accelerating?
I noticed that HW accl is laggy, buy software accl is smooth

Yes, I am sure that I play my videos with hardware acceleration, and about your observation, I beg to differ. The way I understand it is like this: with hardware acceleration, the task of video playback is offloaded to the GPU, hence better rendering, frame rate and better battery performance. If you use software rendering, the whole task is given to the CPU, which will need to run at full speed to decode, and there is no guarantee that it plays smoothly. For instance, on my Sensation, without hardware acceleration, 1080p videos are impossible to play.
I am still trying every possible solution to my video playback problem. Yesterday I also tried Sebastian's latest kernel, with GPU overclocked, the frame rate is getting better, but it is still not on par with Gingerbread's performance.
Any other suggestions?
I think my description was not clear enough. The correct word for my situation is actually micro-stuttering, it is similar to situations when you are playing computer games with either nVidia SLI or ATI Crossfire.
I officially give up, don't really know how to solve the problem now.
why dont you try flashing another rom?
you keep saying its ARHD fault so flash something else and see?
Even i am facing this problem on my XE. mkv high bit rate videos ( more than 10mbps) are having micro stuttering. Hell even 720p hight bitrate videos. I am coming from galaxy S2 and these high bitrate videos used to play buttery smooth. Cant adreno 220 handle 720p videos? this is shame. i can say 1080p mp4 videos are playing fine though.

I will try other ROMs when I have enough free time, but someone told me that it is the same problem for all ICS ROM on the Sensation.

I just want to clarify with you: there is no problem with video playback on Gingerbread, only on ICS that the problem occurs, so it really ROM-dependent, you may want to give ARHD 4.1.13 a try instead of those latest ICS ROMs. Having said that, it is a known fact that Mali-400 MP has much higher performance than Adreno 220, even in terms of graphics and video playback. I think h.264 high profile videos with higher than 10mbps is too much the Sensation, it is a hardware limitation after all. If you want to watch any videos without problem, the ASUS Transformer Prime is the only choice.
Just for curiosity - why bother playing a 1080p file on a device with a (much) lower native res?

There are two important reasons:
1. There is no need for conversion. I can use the same files for my laptop and my phone.
2. Quality: It is all about the video quality, you just have to see it to believe, it is just like day and night. You can put 2 youtube videos with SD quality (say 480p) and full HD quality (1080p) on your phones (in this case, the Sensation) and compare them side-by-side. Image quality, colors, details are much better on full HD and the differences are obvious, regardless of your phone's native resolution. In a sense, it can be comparable to your laptop situation: should I buy a Blu-ray movie to watch on my 720p screen laptop? If you have watched Blu-ray movies before, you definitely will know the answer.

Yeah, because you compare apples and oranges.
Obviously a downscaled 1080p looks better than an upscaled 480p.
Also, the used color space is not bound to the resolution.
And yes, a BR will look better on your 720p screen. Obviously. DVDs are 576 mpeg-2 encoded ^^

I have, and i agree. But one should think trough why, and when it makes sense.
No offense, one should do whatever he wants to do.
I (but that may be me) would rather have a 540 movie with high bitrate than a 1080p with a lousy one, just to say "hey, it's HD"

Blurry pixel screen when watching HD anime

Hello,
I'm new on this forum, so I will shortly introduce myself: My name is Ruben, I live in the Netherlands and I just bought a TF300t a week ago. Please, excuse me if I make some grammar mistakes.
I've got this weird problem: when I am watching my (downloaded) anime series, I sometimes get a blurry screen. This is mostly with dark colors, but sometimes with light colors too. There is no sign of any laggs. The "blurry pixels" just come and go. This might help you:
Using: MX player
Playing: HD anime (720p/1080p)
When does it occur: In H/W+ and H/W decoder enabled.
Let me tell you this, when I'm using S/W decoder, it's perfect. No blurry pixels but the problem then is that it is lagging.
I've tried a few other players, but neither of them worked. Just some little differences.
I've tried to change some settings in the MX player, but nothing worked out for me, unfortunately.
Watch the thumbnails for some examples.
I hope you can help me with this. It's very unfortunate I can't fully enjoy the HD-feeling on my new tablet.
It's certainly the video itself.. Possibly A bad conversion.
Definitely nothing to do with the tf300. Try other video players, like VLC and check if there's still the blurry pixels you say.
If it still persists, it's the video which is the guilty

Both Bs player and Mx player show the same problems. EXACTLY the same. So the blurry parts come exactly the same time, every time. So you are saying it's the video, if this is the case? So what can I do? Download better quality, or lower quality? It's pretty sad, because I download the episodes when they just aired so I can watch them immediatly. It's always very good quality (720p or 1080p) and perfect on my desktop and for everybody else who are downloading the same torrent, but not for my tablet? I don't get why it's the video...
If the S/W decoder worked without laggs I would be satisfied already... Too bad it laggs. It doesn't show these blurry parts.

Nope, my desktop plays it smoothly. Strange, isn´t it? :s
Robgee789 tried the same video's on the same tablet as me, and didn't get this problem. It's so strange.
I just downloaded a non-anime movie: Harry.Potter.And.The.Deathly.Hallows.Part.2.2011.BluRay.720p.H26
It didn't show any signs of blurry frames in H/W+ decoder. So I guess it's only my anime video's. But then again, Robgee789's same tablet doesn't have any problems with this.
Is it my tablet, or some settings?
EDIT:
Harry Potter was a MP4 file, all of my anime series are .MKV
But, I tried a 720p .MKV movie (also Harry Potter) and everything went fine too. I'm not sure, but the resolution of this video says 1280 x 544 (so not 720p??) and my anime series say 1280 x 720. But then also I got one anime serie which I can play without problems (720p, 1280x720) while other series with the same 720p, 1280x720 resolution are blurry. And I'm talking about .MKV files. So where lies the difference?

It could be and most likely is the render that was used. If other formats are not giving issues my money is on it being the video file. I've already watched non HD movies and had the pixel faults. But, those same pixel faults were on my laptop as well.

Is my tablet broken? Maybe a full reset is needed?

Didn't work. But hey, watch your private message please, I think I found "something". I can explain it here too after you confirmed me something.
Take a close look at this picture.
Green: These files can be watched flawlessly. Great!
Red: Every file gives a blurry screen. Mind the different subbers (People who give subtitles to the episodes, so different uploaders).
Yellow: This is why I think I get a blurry screen.
Blue: The files which are working are all from the same subber: "HorribleSubs"
I now want to confirm if you dowloaded files from "Commie" or from "Horrible Subs". I forgot the link I sent you. It could be I changed by accident the links because either Horrible Subs as well as Commie both do upload the same series. If you downloaded from Commie, you "SHOULD" get a blurry screen too. If you downloaded from Horrible Subs, you shouldn't.
Actually this problem is caused by both device and video
I'm assuming that that video is an .mkv right? and the size is below 200MB?
okay, mkv is famous among pirated videos, in this case Anime (I don't stream, just download)
furthermore to avoid large sized videos (300 and sometime 400MB in 720) people encode them whether it's hVEC, h.264 or h.265... and that's where decoders barge in.
and due to android devices having weak capabilities of processing graphical memory (except snapdragon 830, that **** is godlike) in any form, u get that fuzzy blurry output using hw dec and lag using sw dec.
I haven't solved this issue yet so I try to stick to 480p if available
Hi,
does the problem still exist?
Can you check your files with MediaInfo?
I would like to know if the Format is
[email protected] or High [email protected] or something.
Cheers
