Any ideas why this is showing as "This item is not compatible with your device" for my HP Touchpad running jscullins CM10.
Has anyone tried side loading it?

Until XBMC gets hardware support, this is pretty viable option. Good picture, and full removes the navbar on my nexus 7 for full screen. I CANNOT get it to pull all of the meta data for all films and tv shows though. XBMC pulls everything down perfectly. Archos is probably 80%. Incredibly annoying.

What's in this version:
IMPORTANT: MPEG-2 plugin must be updated to latest version to avoid crash
7.0.10 - January 11th, 2013
- Correct aspect ratio on some H264 video
- Add H264 Hi10p SW decoding support (animes)
- Add VC1 & MPEG2 HW decoding when natively supported by platform
- Fix camera video playback on OMAP4 (Galaxy Nexus)
- Add preliminary WTV support
- Fix wrong color conversion on some Galaxy S2/Note2
- Fix HDMI output on some devices (essentially Samsung based hardware)

First of, as far as I remember you could not post link to paid applications! especially as this has no free version!
Second, to comment directly on the topic, I think that, no matter how good it is (and I have the vague feeling it is not), to pay both for the application AND the codec is pure robbery! and, in the application page it is not written anywhere that you need the paid codec! you will buy the app and then realize that in order to be able to play you need to buy the even more pricey codec! yes, you put the link towards a free codec, but in my opinion it is even more confusing.

I didnt know we cant link to paid links. And you are wrong, the UI on this app beats others out there with similar attempts
Yes agree that codec price is rip off hence the link to the free codec
50% off sale now on
7.1.3 - January 24th, 2013
- Fix a major bug that prevented to read long MP4 files on most devices
- Fix MPEG-2 decoding on tegra2 devices

Free version now available
7.2.0 - February 13th, 2013
- Allow to use another video player application when launching the video playback (OFF by default, must be enabled in preferences)
- Keep database information (poster, description, resume point, etc.) for removable storage (external SDcard, USB drive) for 30 days. Restore it when the storage is plugged again.
- Fix UTF-16 subtiltes support
- Add more languages in the subtitle downloader settings
- Longer time-out for SMB discovery

Can this player work on 2.3.7 system. Did anywhere download for this syste, because write work on 4.0 or later.

Really needs more ways to sort. I sort my media by date modified to see what's new today. Alphabetical is nice when I know what's there already.

I use Archos Video Player in Sony Android TV to play videos from SMB shares on Open Media Vault running on a raspberry pi.
I dont see a way to resume a video from where I left (Resume button missing?)
But, I was able to Resume videos when i played videos from USB pen drive connected to Android TV.

Hi
I’ve paid version but I canno read HEVC video (x265)
Could you help me please?
Regards
Fausto

Is it possible to load external audio track?
I have a mkv format video with internal ac3 audio and external mp3 audio track. MP3 audio file has the same name as vidio one, but archos player doesn't pick it up.

Hey guys, so I purchased this for my Shield TV and I love it for the more part, but I am having some annoying problems.
- Archos Video player won't let me add some files to the library, simply nothing happens after I select it. Even if it was in my library at first and then removed.
- Some files won't be updated with a poster, and I cannot find a way to manually update it! This is super frustrating.
- Same with backgrounds, cannot seem to find a way to manually update them, very frustrating.

Hi
latest HEVC with mkvmerge v11.0.0 "Alive" don't run with Archos Video Player
do you have any solutions please?

good I'm trying to play with archos droid player with Google Drive but I do not know exactly how you recognize the files if you can tell me

Really good app.
And try to always post the apk link as many of us don't have access to the market.
I for instance have H1droid in Samsung H1 i8320 and unfortunately no 3g signal and no wifi.
updated to v1.2.. see 1st post
Can't get it working on my Nexus S....
Is it possible to get this app to see /sdcard2 and /usbdisk for those of us using devices with internal storage and USB host?

It is not working with Gingerbread yet.
Check back on the Market for when the Dev updates to 2.3 Compatible.
Few things that comes into my mind:
Two of the best ones I consider is rockplayer and vplayer. Here's a few feedback:
1) In terms of speed/playing file types , at least on my phone they're all about the same, probably because they are all based on ffmpeg. Every 720p plays with the same issue. This is above vplayer because of hardware support and on par with rockplayer.
2) Love the interface. Its pretty well-designed. Love how the RR and FF have an adjustable seek Very useful. Just wish there is gesture support as I'm a bit spoiled .
3) Love the black and white mode. Makes it seem like you are watching one of those old TV back in the days. Really nice effect.
4) Hate the 'R' logo in rockplayer and ads in general, but this one is not very intrusive. Very nice .
Overall one of the top video players out there.
Your player is AMAZING !!!
ANd as you know, Your player does not have one option...
And this would be best for listening to audiobooks....
You know that feeling when someone talk slowly.....with.......not...................so important.............pauses
.................and breaks............................and you want just to
......................listen for information............and this is so annoying .
And as you know it is possible to talk faster....
And as you know this would keep listener focused......
So now.... when you know that this feautere could be important...
You can just why not add option to increase speed of playing without changing pitch of voice ?
Just to have some slider to increase tempo as user want, for example 2 times faster, or 1.5.
Without changing pitch so it would not make voice silly high...
Because that feature can make your player best ever.
has anyone tried it on the x10 mini pro?? is it smooth?? does it have any widget function?? cant wait to try it later on..
Player would fine I guess​s, but without a way to remove ads and watermark I do not want it. I would pay for an as free version.
Here in my Motorola Milestone 1 2.1 firmware didnt played MKV, it frozen the video a lot.
Sorry for the english.
Works on HTC Legend with Gingerbread (CM7) smooth!!!
Thank u!!!
yeah this player is really good,install to my Dell Sreak and plays smoothly.But one option missing that is screen orientation.
I think the best player ever for now.
Plays great, but mp4 files, and files converted to mkv format via mediafox play too fast - sound seems ok but it's playing almost 2x speed. Any ideas?
Vplayer
Hi
I am assuming you have created the Vital player or Vplayer. I have bought this app and i have to say its very impressive in terms of play back. But what i would like to see is subtitle support. I cant find anywhere on the app for where i can attach a subtitle that i had previously downloaded.
Another app that does this well is mvideoplayer. This has the option to search on your phone a subtitle and attach it to the video. But the playback is kinda jerky and laggy. Is there any way of getting subtitle support.
Thanks

This is a movie manager for your tablet (and soon phone running ICS).
Your movies and TV shows are identified and in just one click you could watch them with your favorite player.
free version (no ads) :
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.adree.moviebrowser
paid version with UPnP/DLNA support :
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.adree.moviebrowser.upnp
little bump just to let you know the app now support samba (without root) and new layouts for ICS phones.
best wishes
Hi
Great app just got the paid version. Me I had trouble since my server lost often upnp connectivity but samba as protocol overcomes this problem. Nevertheless further improvements are visible. I would like to remove manually some movies it detects and would like as well to manually change some movie information.
I think especially for series the automatic detection works only poorly.
Hope some will be fixed in next update.
Keep up the good work !
nice i think but to try
Thanks for the feedback,
I know I need to work on a way to manually identify series, atm I'm working on some little UI improvment like creating tabs for video sources and grouping by seasons then I will work on that for sure.
Regards
Hi welcome
Actually I judged a little bit too fast, most series I was able now to include. Is there a way to differentiate between the different seasons ? For example I do have multiple Dexter seasons but can't distinguish them until I click on one of the item. Then it would say season 1 or 2 but they do have the same icons...
Would this work with a Pogoplug device as well? The device support UPnP so I guess it would right?
Obviously yes, and in case the device as trouble to be recognised you can still use Samba.
If you want to be sure try the free version, the browser in the setup screen will show your device if its recognised.
Great App!!!
This is a great app I got the paid version.
Just finished renaming a bunch of my TV episodes.
Some of my movies didn't translate to the right IMBD number Example: 2012: Ice Age was resolved as Ice Age:continental Drift with is a Animated Movie. Not sure if there is another option to maybe include more description in my File Name to get the right movie.
I need some help with the Samba settings in moviebrowser and windows 7. Is it possible to look at the movies over 3G?
[Edit] I figured it out to configure samba in my own network, but over the internet seems it be a bit more complicated.
Hi
thanks for the latest update, really brought some improvements!
Any progress on two important points, manual editing and manual removal of unwanted
movies ? The first one I overcame now by just renaming the files, but the second one
keeps being a little bit annoying. For example I do have a few movies which
then contain several video files, only one being the actual movie. Not being able
to remove the other ones adds unwanted extra films which I cant remove.
Keep on , updating !
@sweborn : To browse over the INTERNET you should look at upnp/dlna. some servers offer this option and its easily/safely configurable.
@ebioman : Its coming soon now have lot of idea in mind its just a matter of prioritizing.
best regards
Does it work on smartphone?
Just want to say I love this app and bought the pro UPNP version!
I was so happy to see the addition of the TVDB api and I just LOVE the ability to fold all seasons into one using tabs!
Great Feature since I have a lot of TV stuff on my Server.
But there are still some bugs in the scraping aspects.
For one I can't seem to get the Looney Tunes collection to scrape properly. I know this is a special case as it uses years for Season Info not the usual 01,02 Etc...
S00 Scrapes properly but I suspect in the API implementation you may be truncating the season as the 4 number seasons do not seem to scrape properly and be incorporated into the season.
I also have an issue with remakes such as Day of the Dead where both wind p with the newer icon despite proper year being noted in the title.
Again I would suspect the full title (like the fll season number) is being truncated somehow.
As to what everyone else said I would love to be able to manually edit the Images and descriptions for movies I have that would not scrape because they are personal or un documented.
But all that aside I love this program you made!
EDIT: One feature I would like to see added is if the default meta source (in my case MovieDB and TVDB) comes up empty that the program should also look at IMDB
How can you choose which video player? I have bsplayer and MX player and I can't choose bsplayer

Click to expand...

Well for one your selections for players are limited by the filetype your trying to play and where your playing it from.
You choose the video player on first play and I suspect you may have set one as the default which would inhibit the program from asking again.
What player does it default to on playback?
Find that player in you Settings Applications and clear any defaults it has set.
Go back to Movie browser, try and play something and it should pop up a list of the players it can use.
If your bsplayer doesn't show in that list then it doesn't support that filetype.
If you don't check use player by default it will ask you for which player to use each time.
Filemasks for search?
Any chance to get exclusion filemasks for search setup? For example the recordings from my htpc all have the channel name being included as part of name being searched: Example: "A Walk in the Clouds WWLFDT2" and the lookup fails due to the channel name...exclusion filemasks could be added so that _WWLFDT2_ in the filename gets converted to just "_" before doing a search.
Any chance we can have a version that works on Android 2.3?
I just bought a media player an having this app would be awesome
its this one btw.

Been using this for a while on my tablet (TF101) and has been great (uPNP version)!
just got a google tv box (logitech revue) and have downloaded this for its primary use on there (I have ESFile Explorer and GTVBox players installed, vplayer and other not working) - seeing the following issues:
1. The view in google TV means that you can only see 2 movies at a time, makes it quite slow to move around - can you a include a specific theme for gtv (for me, would be a wallpaper of all covers, with a second page for individual movie details?)
2. I cannot get a movie to play from the browser - it seems to be favouring GTVBox over ES video player (even though no defaults are set) and goes to a blank screen with the honeycomb circle (please wait) showing continuously
I have the movie files on an external hard drive connected to the USB input, so no uPNP issues to worry about - I will try moving a movie onto the internal memory tonight to see if that changes anything??
any tricks to try would be appreciated - looking for this to be my main app on the lgoitech (so that my son lets me have my tablet back!)
Improvements for GTV
I am actually glad I read this. GTVBox has been giving me headaches in the video streaming category & I was curious about this on when looking through Google Play. Other than the issues below are you planning on adding a more in-depth video search? Most of my videos are in their own sub-folders & they are divided up by genre.
Plus I did see that the app appears to go to the GTVBox video player which makes me apprehensive in purchasing the full version. If you can add like genre folders & have the app point to the default player when selecting a movie I'd by this in a heartbeat. But seriously, 15min is not enough time for me to fully test out the paid version to see if this is what I am looking for.
I am impressed with the movie database look-up though, really cool!

RockPlayer2 's UI is so simple and clear for users, you don't have to learn to use an app anymore.

The media library find and show all your media files automatically with thumbnail and other info like type , last play time and so on.
Or...you can shake your phone to hide some files you dont want others to find.
Let's talk about the "Unique features"
RockShare : with RockShare , you can share your files with your friends just use your phone, your don't have to find a PC and USB line, you don't have to take your SD card anymore. RockShare is available for both Android and iOS, You can exchange files with any of your friends whose phone installed RockPlayer2 and in the same WIFI with you . File transfer speed can be as fast as 9MB/s.
Customize Pannel: To make the playback View simple and clean , we make the control bar customizable . Users can choose which button they need and where they put it .Just long press any button of the control bar , you will get the customize pannel and find what you like. So you can get most of the view for movie but not like some other player app , put all the buttons on a playback view .
we also add great support for gestures and streaming playback , you can handle everything just using one hand.
At last , here I make a movie for RockPlayer2, hope you like it .
For more information ,please go out website: http://rockplayer.com/rp2/en/
hope more guys know and try my app
This is a cool idea, any way to make it pull music from google music?
looks interesting but not a big fan of the notepad background. IMO keep it simple and clean.
If you make it pull music from Google music I'll purchase it for $10

I tried RockPlayer2 out for a little bit. I ultimately settled on MX Player. MX Player appeared to offer smoother playback for my HD MKV files AND it supports subtitles far better 9embedded and external).....just my 2 cents when I tried out both Players on my SGS3 today.

Thanks for trying RockPlayer2, cause we rewrote decode engine , we still need more time to optimize for different phones to make it better . The subtitle support , we have just finish the code of better support , we will push it in several days with some other amazing features, so please give me more time .

The log doesn't contain any information.
Can you post the screenshot of extended properties (enable more options on Properties)?
How many subtitles are listed in the subtitle pop up window?
Have tried after unchecking the "Enable Embedded subtitles" in Settings 》 Subtitles ?
If It's still not working uncheck "Enable Subtitles" option too. If you are still getting means subtitle is hard encoded to video frame. In that case it can't be disabled.
Regarding S/W decoder issue, your cpu amlogic m805 is not a powerful one. Since S/W decoder uses the cpu to decode, it needs powerful cpu. So,there will be lagging depends upon the video quality
sorry for the later reply.
1. they said it has 4 core at 2ghz with mali m450-mp. is it power enough to do the hw acc+ thing? h/w acc is fine, but not h/w acc+.

well the embed subtitle still there.
1. I tested these:
open/disable : Gui hw
open/disable : setting/subtitle
===> embed always there. (only ext subtitle can be controlled. )
but every condition, the embed subtitle loaded 3 second later after ext subtitle. (or 2 paragraph later)

[APP][5.0+] Just (Video) Player - no Bluetooth lag / ExoPlayer / FFmpeg audio codecs

Just Player is a video player based on the ExoPlayer library/framework from Google. Just Player is fairly trivial right now - most work is done by ExoPlayer and I have just added few actions and controls here and there. The whole app is basically just a single screen with an option to load video - no library view or application settings.
Why?
Compensation for Bluetooth audio lag. ExoPlayer does that automatically, plays video in sync with audio.
All special audio formats. Thanks to FFmpeg, ExoPlayer can handle even special formats like AC-3, E-AC-3, DTS, DTS-HD, TrueHDetc.
Free / open source
(Clean, uncluttered GUI)
I wasn't able to find any video player satisfying all above needs. I personally use nPlayer which does well with both Bluetooth and audio codecs. Another competitor to Just Player is SimplePlayer (also ExoPlayer based) though Just Player tries making the UI easier.
I also found out that VLC isn't able to play HDR videos properly (colors are washed out) or that MX Player isn't that able to play 4K 60 FPS HDR video without shuttering (even on Snapdragon 855 / OnePlus 7). Tested with "The World in HDR" video from Kodi Samples. This Player plays it just fine.

What's next
It's amazing to me that in just a few hours of work and few hundreds lines of code it is possible to create a video player that I actually can use. I probably won't be adding support for features that are too big for this little player - like playlists, media library etc. but I should probably be able to improve things like subtitles (it should be easy with ExoPlayer). So just let me know what do you think.
The app got suspended on Google Play for listing compatible subtitle formats.
Check the link - it's ironic because I reused the description from a Google library (for playing videos) and this is what caused the suspension.
EDIT: Fortunately the app was reinstated few hours later.
Great app, especially for the feature i am asking about:
There is a "timeshift" if i access certain free TV-Streams in Germany. The only program for the PC is a version of KMPlayer, which -and that's different- starts the stream up to -2hours* from now w/o the option to seek up to the "live feed" (i could save the stream-starting in the past or speed up the play speed but it's no fun). Just Player can seek to any point from -2hours* to the live feed.
Is that included by accident or on purpose, if so what is the name of that feature or how does it work - is there a "proxy mechanism" involved? D
No other player (i dare to say i know some) on Android or PC beside the 2 mentioned have that feature...and i would like to seek to any time* on the PC.
* the time to look into the past varies...but the last 2 hours is mostly true.
Example - probably geo-blocked: https://derste247livede.akamaized.net/hls/live/658317/daserste_de/master_1280p_3328.m3u8
i tried to find international streams but they go back 1Minte max.
Any insight would be appreciated
@ks123_reloaded This player uses ExoPlayer which is a library from Google, primarily intended for integrating/creating streaming apps on Android & TV. They probably care a lot about media consumption and supporting the ecosystem as a whole so they really integrate the streaming well. The feature you are asking about is probably something like this: https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/issues/87

sounds like it. Thx
Now my quest for finding the PC version can go on
Maybe I didn’t understand something, but E-AC-3 and DTS formats are not played on Ugoos X3 pro and Mecool KM6 delux (silence), but on MI Box S, which has a DTS license, everything is in order. So E-AC-3 and DTS can only be played with hardware codecs? Or is there some settings? Vimu plays everything on all devices...

If the connected device doesn't have E-AC3 or DTS capability, it should fallback to the FFmpeg decoder. This is managed (default behavior) by ExoPlayer so I suspect it's some device specific issue (reporting/detecting wrong capabilities). Currently there's no setting for that but based on the feedback, I will be adding that.

Do we have the list of the compatible devices?
For instance are Samsung Galaxy S20 FE compatible? or is it just devices such as nVidia Shield?

Most latest phones have HDR displays, so does S20 FE - you can check here: https://m.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s20_fe-10428.php
Only Dolby Vision is limited to very few devices.
I just wanted to say that Just Player is the ONLY player i could find as an android TV app on my Sony X900H TV that can play Dolby Vision and some other HDR movie files properly off a USB drive connected directly to my TV. The native player, VLC, Nova player, MX player, none worked ! Plex did work but i had to stream from my PC and it stuttered badly.
So Just Player has been a lifesaver It is amazing and so far plays EVERYTHING !
Not asking to get too fancy, but maybe a slightly nicer interface when navigating your drive to select files would be nice.
I have a request for this app: Can you the developer of this app please add an indicator in the video player that shows when a HDR video is actually playing?
When i'm playing a HDR video with the Samsung Video player on my Galaxy Z Fold 3, then it shows a HDR logo in front of the video name.
Adding this would be awesome .
Hello, thank you to the developer for this wonderful video player that I use on a shield pro 2019.
I don't know if it's possible but I will have 2 recommendations.
Movies in 23.976 fps switch well in 23.976hz but movies in 24 fps and 25 fps switch respectively in 120hz and 50hz for me. Would it be possible to change that?
Also, concerning the resolution, would it be possible to create an option to automatically switch the screen to the original resolution of the films?
Thank you very much and sorry for my English :s
