Hi all, I've got a Flyer 10.1 which has been upgraded to 3.2 Honeycomb. What is the best format to convert a movie to, is it MPEG or MP4? any help would be much appreciated!
Basically you are referring to the same format since .mpeg is MPEG-1 and .mp4 is MPEG-4. These are just different versions.
I think there isn't much of difference in which one you use.
Put any format, like mikpel said over me
But for watching the movies try to use the MX player... for the PRO version, just google it
If you get some lags on the video, switch to S/W and its gonna work better but just if the video gets lagy
There is a difference as an mp4 can be in various codecs such as h264 or xvid whereas a standard mpeg video cannot.
Most common mp4 formats use xvid or h264 video codec with mp3 or aac audio.
Flyer supports mp4 in h263, h264, divx and xvid codecs with mp3 aac or wma audio.
Best for quality yet smaller filesize is h264 video with aac audio but an xvid avi mp4 with mp3 audio can be played on pretty much any thing and is similar in quality though produces slightly larger filesizes.

I am able to play this particular video file, but am not getting any audio. Is there a certain audio codec that I need to download?

It is because Galaxy S can't playback audio with 6 channels , i did not try this my self but that is what others observed.
Yes, I think it's limited to 5.1 channel audio encoded videos.
Also, that 4608kbps audio rate is awfully high.
Try using rockplayer and see if it works.
Was having a hard time w a video, wouldn't work in act1 nor the stock video player, worked great on rockplayer
Free on android market
Keep in mind Rockplayer is purely software player , it will not take advantage of phones Hardware acceleration , it will not play high resolution with good bitrate without dropping frames like crazy.
It would be better just to recode audio track.
I was just curious, because this was the same file that I had on my SD card that was in my BB Bold, which was able to play it???
Hello Guys,
I have used both Vegant and Latest TNT 2.2 and both lag while I play 720P .mp4 encoded videos downloaded from youTube, I'd like to know if its a software or hardware limitation? Does anyone else have the same problem with 720 .mp4 files from youtube? Does it lag (as in audio and video lose sync - audio plays faster than video).
ive incoded some 1080p bluerays using handbrake normal preset H.264. container mp4 also had to do this with 1080p .mkv files couldn't even get them to play otherwise. after that they played great on my tablet
The Tegra 2 chipset cannot handle h264 encoded as high profile. Main profile works fine. I know this confuses some people, but grab the excellent "mediainfo" tool (http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en) and you can see how your file is encoded.
MP4 containers seem to work best, although I believe Rockplayer can play MKV's with hardware acceleration.
i wanted to ask what is the deal with 3gp video recording on desire hd and htc hd2 custom android rom... I can't understand why android phones record video in 3gp??? i have desire hd and hd2 both record in 3gp file type... Does this mean that all android phones record video in 3gp? Can i somehow make my phone record in mp4 or some other video format? And after this, i officially say that desire hd is my last phone with android until they make avi or mp4 recording... I am happy i have a windows phone...
3gp's are basicly mp4's with a diff audio codec. Just rename it to mp4 and you should be fine.

@king_slavcho: 3gp, avi and mp4 are just containers. Knowing the container tells you nothing about which video and audio formats are inside, all three of them can store several different formats.
@InfiniteRisen: It's not a given that audio will be different, as 3gp can also store AAC audio. And just renaming the filename is *not* the thing to do, as the containers are slightly different. It might work most of the time, but that's just by chance.

As someone who has programmed using the FFMPEG API--which is considered the standard in the media encoding world-- I can vouch for what this man says; The AVI, MP4, m4v, etc are just formats(or 'containers' if you will) that hold the encoded video information. 3gp is probably more ARM friendly though.
Hey folks, I was trying to watch a video on my TF101 that I made with my Galaxy S II today, it's a 1920x1080 17Mbit/sec h264 video file. MX player won't play it in hardware. Any way to fix that?
Try Dice Player with the tegra plugin.
Freemake Video Convertor
Easiest converter I've used....take your 1080p file select 720p mkv or what ever other extension and press convert. Might look into the audio settings a bit more tho. (I haven't yet) but the audio comes out not as loud...
Then use MX video...with HW video and SW audio.
Also this might save you time if you try the converter...don't use the Android setting...didn't work for me...wasted 4 hours (slow laptop).
Swyped using my Pinky
I really didn't want to have to transcode the video.
Diceplayer didn't work, even with the plugin. It was a stuttery, frame dropping mess. At least in MX, it plays in super slow motion.
For me, BS Player seems to be the best for playing HD mkv files.
It's not an MKV file. It's h264 in an MP4 container recorded by my Galaxy S II phone.
Did you try playing it in S/W mode? I've had to use it for 1280x720 videos on my TF101 and Captivate with MX.

Argh, sorry. I really suck at multitasking.
I was just transfering a mkv file over to my Transformer when I wrote that comment. lol
What I meant to say was that BS Player seems best for me to play HD movies (with big file size).
Guys I have HTC sensation,
Can any one tell me the configurations to convert the video to play on my phone..
like wise,
video size
bitrate
frame rate
aspect ratio
etc
video codec
I use imToo video converter..
I need HD video..
everytime i convert I see quality is gone worse..
Help././
Just use some more advanced media player, like MX Video Player. Streams mkv, mp4 and avi seamlessly over upnp - So ill guess it plays most others as well.
I'm using DicePlayer. It plays everything so far.
Either use MoboPlayer

Or convert your videos to be 960x540
