I need to try VLC, but I'm using Dice Player Ad from the market right now. Plays everything I've thrown at it so far. I tried MX Player first but I was having to use SW decoding to get audio to play with my mkv files, Dice doesn't have that issue.

MX PLAYER really did good job on TF300T
audio in AC3 coded is not supported by the system default, MX Player could play that.

Is your player a free app or a pro apk?
My MX player pro that I got from google crashes every couple seconds
I downloaded the free version, which there is no difference besides a ad when you aren't watching

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 app?

Whats the best app for video? This is my first android so i don't know what is "best." i need it to play MKV, Mp4, AVI, etc.... all @ HD.
MX Video Player
Thanks i will try it.
MX works very good on Fire.
Just watched Modern Family mkv in HD (720p), hardware accelerated, without lags and nothing.
PS. The only problem was the audio channel that didn't work in HW mode. Just changed that to SW decoding and everything was fine.

Yep, MX Video Player is the best video player for the Kindle Fire.

It's working on my mkv files very well. I also had to switch audio to software decode.

what about vplayer?
I have always trusted in VLC Player, however, technically its still in closed beta for Android, and not available for direct download via the Market.
With the OP being new to Android, I guess I might be expecting a little too much to say, Google for it (VLC-neon.apk), and sideload it?! But I'm putting it out there anyway!

How do you get it to work where you the gray pullup bar on the bottom doesn't interfere with the onscreen controls? Also, do you know if it can stream from Dropbox/Sugarsync? I haved some vids on SS that I stream on Moboplayer, but can't get them to stream on MX.

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

issues Streaming xvid over wifi

Has anyone tried streaming an xvid video over wifi via a samba share using ES File explorer? Mine will not play. I'm on the stock kernel.
I've not tried to stream from ES but ive done it from splashtop browser no problem.
Sent from my GT-P3113 using xda premium
Samehere. Ended up using allshare..works great.
I just set up a share in Ubuntu 11.04 and copied a Sherlock (tv show episode) xvid video to the shared folder.
I am using a Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 with stock rom and NOT rooted - NO mods.
Oddly enough, when I click on the video using es file explorer it gives me the choice to run Mobo Player OR Mx Video Player but NOT the player that came with the tablet.
I couldn't get the video to play with the Mobo Player. I was able to get the Mx video player to stream and play it perfectly BUT only after setting the Mx video player to software decoding. It would not play with hardware decoding setting activated in the Mx video player.
Mx video player is free on Google Play apps.

annoyingly I am having similar problems. Hardware decoding only seems to work properly when I am playing a file locally. Whenever I am streaming a file via dlna it turns into a glitch fest.
What is strange for me is that nothing worked at all not even mx player until I had installed v player. Prior. To installing vplayer i was having errors about filetypes. Eg 'unsupported filetype video/x-msvideo.
Now vplayer is uninstalled and still everything functions correctly however I am still left without hardware decoding when streaming.
I am currently using minidlna server because its cli based, simple, light and faSt.
Anyway I hope someone has some answers as to why this is happening
The audio format might be causing probs. Also hw decoding does not like variable bit rates.

Stock Video Player

I have few MKV video files in my GS3. On stock video player, i can see the thumbnail of that mkv files, but when i played the file, it keep telling me that it can't play the files.
is there anyway to play MKV video files in stock video player?
I highly doubt you will be able to play MKV files on the stock player. But don't take my word for it. Try googling it and do let us know what you find. In the mean time, I could recommend a good free video player I found on the market which works fine for me - MoboPlayer. It's highly rated in the app market and has been perfoming pretty well for me. I've never had to use the stock player ever since I got this.
Yea mobo now let's you have the floating video on home like the stock ones does. It also gives you screen gestures for volume and brightness. Mx video is also a good player as well
