Hey I am wondering if there is a video editing software that also streams to Google devices. I have this one app tested on my phone called vplayer. and it changes the aspect ratio, but doesn't convert. And then there is this app called androtrim that changes the ratio. Which I may eventually buy. But can someone suggest an app that streams the converted video as well. I have downloaded some movies with bittorrent and I want to resize them to fit on my screen. I may have missed a posting similar to this, but I would love to know more. And I don't have this tab right now. That's a question i need answered so I can buy. Because I won't buy a tab if u can't do what I'd like to do.

Maybe "Video Converter Android" (paid app) could solve SOME of Your issues (it always depends on the codecs used)

From what I have gathered the SGS supports a lot more video/audio formats than Nexus S out of the box (correct me if I am wrong). Will it be possible to port these codecs from the SGS over to the NS?
Video Player Nexus S
Helps. Need a video player for Nexus S. I switched from my G2 to this. With the G2, i used ArcMedia and it played pretty much anything without any conversion. Now all i get is FCs on the Nexus S. Sad panda i am right now.

[Q] How to play vidoes/movies on Nexus S?
So i was thinking about watching a movie this afternoon on my brand new Nexus S and started looking for some sort of video player under the appications. Is it true that the phone doesnt come with any kind of Video Player? How do i watch movies? What format to use for the movies? I download all my movies and they're all .avi. All the help, comments and suggestions are highly appreciated.
AVI is just a container. It can hold any kind of codec inside. I heard people reccomend rockplayer is good though. Try that and report back on how it works.
Rockplayer doesn't work. Lots of players crashes on the Nexus S right now. They all need to be updated.

You're right. Nothing works at the moment. Is it true our nexus came with absolutely no video player?

When I try to open a video file from astro, among the choices of program given to me is one called "movies"; this uses the same icon as the "gallery" proram, comes preloaded on the phone, and also fails to open most video formats.
Playing M4P via Meridian and it works great.

Let me look up meridian. I guess I am gonna have to convert from avi to the extension you mentioned.

Gallery is the video player.

So is the issue that the nexus s doesn't come with an xvid codec or that apps with software decoding of the codecs like rockplayer just need to be updated ? Sorry if I'm a little dense about this.
I guess the 3rd party apps need to be updated.

So is there a specific file type that the galley plays? I just created a movie folder with 2 avi files but gallery isn't showing anything other than pictures on the same storage.

M4P is a .h264 container. Most videos on the internet or torrents for phones come in M4P format. Best quality for the size.
Most phones can play M4P right out of the box. YouTube is a big supporter of the container.

quick question regarding the camera, how do you upload videos to picasa.
I went to the gallery and hit menu to get the option to share, but I only see the option there when its photos. I thought you can upload videos also.
I could not find a way to upload on mine. I have just used "Picasa Uploader" from the market. It's free and uploads video and pictures.

Nothing that I have ran across....that would make sense to include your service in the phone.

Yeah I know.
BTW did you check the videos you uploaded on picasa from your nexus?
I just uploaded one using the same app you said, and it seems that the quality is not the same than that which was taken on the phone. Its a much lesser one.
Can anyone tell me what are the best settings to encode movies or a good free program to use?

a player that encode it on the phone while playing is mobo player and i use handbrake to convert it on my laptop! i think this is what you want to hear!
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA Premium App
+ 1 for mobo player or rockplayer, with these u won't need to re encode anything.
DICE Player. Plays 720p mkvs smooth.
Look no else.
Good alternative is MoboPlayer and RockPlayer though. But if you want to watch MKVs and all that, DICE Player is what you're looking for.
Are any of them free i dont want to pay off the dtore as ibread that my bank will charge me as a import currency

Look for the post in general that I replied to someone asking the same question. Miro video converter is the easiest but no batch processing. Pick nexus preset.
I'm considering buying a Xoom, and I've been trying to read up on it, and it seems as though video playback has been discussed to great extent. Most of what I've read is about HD files (.mkv).
How is the video playback of .avi files on the stock player?
If it sucks, would you recommend any other apps? Or would I need to re-encode them?
I will use this when travelling, so I can't use any streaming software from my regular pc.
I have no problem with rooting and installing custom ROMs if that would improve anything!
Thank you!
Is it so much of a diffference it's worth doing it? Is it unwatchable if you don't?

In my opinion it is not worth doing. Just download Mobo Player from the market and you'll be fine. Not had 1 .avi that would not work with Mobo, nor noticed any difference in the quality.
No issues here either, there are a few things that I've reencoded due to size but not found any issues..
fyi I've been using freemaker video converter to reencode stuff if it needed doing.
On the xoom page on motos website it says that .ago is not nativly supported by the android OS, and that using decoders may reduce battery time if its not done on a hardware level. Any of you having trouble with battery life?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Mobo does both hardware and software rendering and there are other players on the market that will use hardware rendering.
As for battery life, I cant honestly say that I have seen a decrease that would make a difference to my useage.
Thank you all!

What do the people say?
Should I include ALLSHARE ? or is it trash?
i like the idea of all share but.... never use it
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Toss it...
me to.. i like it because its 'not in the market' but there are other apps that do the same thing in the market.
I never use it either, I personally think its bloat, but I see alot of other roms are including it so I figured I would ASK!
Thx! Plz vote!!
bloat, keep out
Bloat.

Toss it. There is a better option.
UPnP and DicePlayer.
I have used AllShare A LOT. The problem is that it limits you to a stripped down version of Samsung "Videos" app. With an Exynos processor you'd never notice, but for the Skyrocket the Videos app doesn't work well with XviD. As a side note, to fix XviD choppiness, I run Gamecih 3.0 and set it to transparent, and all the lagginess is gone when playing XviD on DicePlayer.
Also, when you want to skip forward on DicePlayer when streaming over DLNA, it is simply stunning because it is so instant and responsive, unlike the Videos app which seems to have buffer issues.
Lastly, tou can download an updated AllShare from the Market if you really like AllShare or want to share your video on your phone to another DLNA device.
I searched the forums for this and did not find it.
bsplayer is the best video player for Android ever! It will play any media file that I throw at it. It will also stream VOB files from a share drive!
I am not the dev for this but I wanted to give him exposure so that more and more people use it. For those who have used it what are your thoughts?

It's a matter of personal preferences of course, but I've found that MX Player interface suits me better, but otoh I also keep bs for local network streaming which it does much better.

in my opinion , RockPlayer2 is the best media player on android, with really great UI and performance, and It has some unique feature, like 'Rockshare" , users can share their videos with friends just use their phone, but not exchange SD-card.
yes, after installing dozens, this is the only one that plays my 4 gig 720p DTS audio mkv file. But the video color quality can be better.
I always go back to vplayer
