Can it do it with the HDMI adapter and a video player like mvideoplayer ?
It is possible if you have the player in Software (S/W) Decoder mode, for both .avi files with external .srt files and .mkv files with the subs muxed in. Subtitles will not display if you are in Hardware (H/W) Decoder mode. It should be the same with MX Player Pro.
Hope that helps!
It should handle the 700MB avi in Software Decoder mode ?
It should. I tried with a 1.5 gb avi file in software and it worked
you can, just rename the subtitle as the same as the video file ex: theraidredemption.mkv --> theraidredemption.srt
tested with stock video player app and dice player app (both in H/W decoder mode)

How did you get the stock video app to play subtitles? It does not have any options for it.
You just have to rename the .srt the same as the video file, video.mkv and video.srt, when you play the .mkv it will auto load the subtitle, you don't need to change a single setting, it works on my tablet too using the stock video player.
Ah, good to know. Shame the stock player doesn't handle subs within mkv files.

My nexus s isn't playing back AVI videos regardless of what application I use. Is this abnormal or do I just need to get an avi codec somewhere ?
you need rockplayer

I've tried:
Rockplayer
Mvideoplayer
arcMedia
None have worked. Rockplayer began to play a file and then stopped.
Avi is just a container, you need codec support for the video file inside. Try Rockplayer.

Thanks for the suggestion but I'm not having an luck with Rockplayer either. As stated above when I use rockplayer to open the avi files, it plays a second or two of audio and then quits back to the file select menu. Are you sucessfully using rockplayer to play back avis ?
Yes, you can play avi's depending on what codec was used on the video file inside the avi, an avi file can have any type of video file inside of it; h264, mpg4, divx, etc...
rockplayer probably needs to be updated to work with 2.3 like allot of other software
need to port codecs from galaxy S then we could play anything...with hardware rendering
Hey there,
so far , I've been trying every player I could find , the one which play the AC3 sound got bad video or can't play .srt subtitles.
the ones that support .srt dont play sound.
basicly I live in Israel , I'd like to watch movie with Hebrew subtitles.
I'd love to be able to download movie and play it as-is without re-encoding it which is time consuming.
is there any solution ? or any working player ?
Have you tried MX Player yet? After playing with this player for a while, I decided to remove all other players.
MX Player is all I need. It play 720p mkv, sub (.srt and in .mkv). It has S/W decoding and H/W decoding...
Nice player up till now!

Try diceplayer.
diceplayer can play 720p High + DTS + MKV + SRT/SMI subs
If sub charset encoding is problem.
convert your subtitle file to UTF-8
Can anyone advise on the following.
Dice Player:
Is there anyway to disable the showing of subitles?
MX Player:
How can we enable H/W decoding. I only get the S/W options when playing a MKV
Thanks in advance
In MX Player I know that S/W is the only option to play MKV properly. I don't use Dice Player =/

Did you download the ARM7 codecs? I can play MKV with HW decoding on MX player. Maybe it's to do with your rom.

MKV is a container - the contents maybe different.
Dice Player - Start Dice Player - Go to settings > scroll down > untick Show subtitles.
I have a bunch of mkv's I decoded myself from some dvd's using a free software for windows, but when I play them with mx player on the note 10.1 I can only use sw and not hw.
Anyone who knows what the problem may be?
No, but I have the same experience. Many video's need SW b/c HW will either not play, or produce audio mismatch.
I use hw for video and sw for audio... Works fine but doe go out of sync when just using hw...
Why do you convert dvds to mkv ?
You can convert them to mp4 or avi with ac3 audio.
The files are smaller and the video quality is the same.

cos it's an easy software and process: put in the dvd, select language and subtitle, click convert and in a few minutes I get the movie ripped to an mkv file.

Hi,
I tried to search and look around in this forum and still cannot resolve my problem.
I just installed MX Player pro. I ripped and made one MKV movie file from bluray with embedded subtitles in the file.
I tested the file with my TV and DUNE HD player and also tested this file on my computer with XBMC, VLC media play. The movie can be played smoothly and I can control, select, enable, or disable subtitles as usual.
However, when I loaded the file to my Samsung Note 8, MX player pro can play movie smoothly and fine. The only problem is that there is no subtitle shown, although I selected or enabled subtitles.
I also tried enable and disable in Setting > Subtitle > Enable Subtile and Setting > Subtitle > Enable Embeded Subtiles , but it doesn't help.
Please suggest.

Did you check subtitle track button on the playback screen?
There may a speech balloon button on the upper right corner of the playback screen, if video have one or more subtitle tracks.

Hi bleu8888, do you mean the mini button on the right corner? There are H/W, subtitles, audio.
Yes I checked it. I enabled one, two, or sometimes even all of them, but no subtitle is shown.
Note: I just tested the file with "VLC for android" and it works as expected. All subtitles work fine.
Thus, I guess there must be some missing or incorrect configuration in my MX Player Pro. Please help.

Hmm, pgs subs shouldn't generally cause a problem... as bleu requested, mind sharing your file somewhere? If the file's big, could you clip out a few minutes and share that instead?

Hi bleu8888
I installed it. It looks like an updated part, doesn't it? Anyway, it works as expected now.
Thank a lot!
You can use Avdshare Video Converter to removing subtitles from MKV with the help of an MKV Subtitle Remover named MKV Subtitle Remover.
