HD Videos on P3110 - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
When I try to play HD Videos or streams it will mostly be shown in slowmotion and jerking (audio is normal),
sometimes it works normal.
Has anybody an idea on what the videoplayback depends or what configuration can be set to make this
contantly working.
I run CM10.1, AOKP Kernel, 1,2 Mhz, interactive gov, cfq shed
Regards
Michael

What player are u using? I had an issue where I was having trouble playing any videos...they would be basically like watching a series of all photos...I switched the setting from h/w to s/w decoding and that took care of it

Hi,
MX Player, maybe thats a hint, I remember, that I put it in the settings to h/w.
Actually I am installing CM again and I will try it when its all installed. Thanks so far.

Does anyone else have problems playing movies?

I had the same movies on the first atrix and they played flawlessly. They're .avi and either they won't play or they lag, and audio isn't synced. Please let me know if this can be fixed or if it may just be my phone. I have already reflashed my phone back to stock and it didn't fix the problem, thank you.

Do you also have problems them playing with DicePlayer?
I normally don't use the stock player as sometimes it lags or doesn't play some files on my SD card so I used moboplayer

I guess I'll try downloading different players... also do you guys remember the way we could play music, videos, and see pics through HDMI on the ffirst atrix? I don't have that option, I can only mirror my display -_- and playing movies like that really screws with the quality

Try .mpg/.mpeg and see if that helps.

Check the audio on the files, if the audio is 48hz then playback skip crazy like
I have the same problems. For some reason the Atrix 2's hardware decoders aren't adequate. I can play a 720p mp4 file perfectly but when playing avi files it gets really choppy.
I simply used MX Video Player. Great video player. It let's you select the folders that it scans for video files. The player tries HW decoding and if that doesn't work it goes to SW decoding. Since most avi's play in HW decoding just click the screen's HW sign to change it to SW or SW fast. Also, I found it better to leave the deinterlace option unchecked.
now, I just use this as my phone's go to "vlc player"

ICS 4.0 incredible S ---video in green screen

Hello,just want to ask is anybody know why my screen turned to render green while playing any video file?
Sent from my Incredible S using xda premium
What Player are you using? Assuming it's something naff like the default one, i would recommend using a better one from the Market. Try vplayer, moboplayer... or any of the other decent ones.
Did it do the same when on Gingerbread?
If not, I'd reccomend an alternative player as Dirk suggested
Thanks for replying..i'll try other player on market 1st..just want confirmation is anyone using this ROM in incredible s exprienced the same problem?

Maybe Your roms hw codecs are messed up, but you have let developers to fix it, but you can use mx video player to watch videos on your phone but it doesn't work with online videos, with mx when you start to play video, right top on your screen there should be box with hw, sw or sw fast reading in it if it says hw, press the box and change it to sw or sw fast

MX Player Video PlayBack Works on ICS Roms

Just wanted to share that MX Player using the Codec for Tegra 2 is able to play videos on ICS Roms. It uses S/W decoding as opposed to H/W because well we don't have hardware acceleration. But the S/W decoding has just as good quality as the H/W decoding. So if you want to watch videos on your ICS Rom you can try Mx Player. I have tested it on PanaroidAndroid build 5 and it works nicely.
How do I find the codec? Max player doesn't even start for me

That's weird are you sure you are using the right codec and on the top right when you open the player is says either s/w or s/w fast and not h/w? Because for me H/W works but it is massively laggy because that needs hardware acceleration but S/W fast work fine.

That's weird. It works really well on ParanoidAndroid maybe the EB dev team can talk to the ParanoidAndroid dev team and share fixes.

try panaroidandroid it at least works on that ROM
It also works with Genesis Stable ICS release. I tried it just to see after previous failed attempts on many ROMs but was surprised and excited that it worked.
It worked fine for me on every hell fire release too. I have a feeling the only reason it doesn't work on the egb is because you guys are doing something wrong, or like you said the devs need to talk to hell and the guy that makes paranoid

1080p HD video playback

Hey guys i just want to ask if any of you have tried playing 1080p or even 720p videos on the nexus s because im running on slimbean 3.0 marmite kernel and I used bs player to play HD videos but it will not be a smooth playback... does anyone have any idea on how to make the playback be smooth? Poor maybe this is hardware limitation?
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
Use MX player. 720 is fine.
Accidentally sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note 2
Try MoboPlayer
Sent from my Nexus S using xda app-developers app
If you haven't come across any solutions, I'd suggest Dice Player.
I've tried VLC player and it runs HD videos smoothly and amazingly. It's still in BETA but it's amazing. I'd give it a try, it's free so you won't be losing anything. It also plays any format and you can use it to listen to your music. Another cool feature is it allows you to stream videos on it.

I don't know if BS Player has the option but use MX Player and while your video is playing, choose SW Decoding, since HW decoding makes the video stutter

Try diceplayer, it renders 720p decoding perfectly

What rom/kernel are you on? I'm on Synergy and it would flash back to the home screen using the default (Ziggie's) kernel. I switched to Lean Kernel, and it worked. I haven't watched a full movie yet, but it appeared to work ok. Did you install MX Player as instructed?

Thanks man, I dont know what all that neon stuff means. Mind explaining?
It seems kind of complicated, it seems like it'll make graphics run smoother, and it is also supported on our devices, so I'm about to try the neon versions of mx and xbmc

I never terry it, but i tried it, works great with allshare cast dongle.....:silly:
Ok so I have the neon versions. All videos (tmz, news, wimp.com) play well except for full tv or movies from icefilms and project free tv. Icefilms stays stuck trying to load a list of movies and project free either gets stuck loading in the mx player when I try play a movie or tv show, or it'll play with tons of buffer issues, I'm talking every couple of seconds

Still on the non neon version and it works perfect for me.
I'm thinking There's just something wrong with those particular channels like Icefilms.

Ice film is working perfect for me though. After I installed non neon MX and non neon XBMC I opened MX Player and downloaded the codec it wanted me to download. After that I closed it out and opened XBMC. Acted a little funny. Went to application manager forced stopped MX player and cleared data, did the same to XBMC. After clearing everything out I then opened MX Player again, closed out and opened XBMC. Everything seems to be working perfectly.
Edit: Could it be your signal? When I drive to Orlando it says I have 4G but its weak as hell. Lags while watching videos. This is around Waterford Lakes Town Center.
Well I've only tried it on Wi-Fi, 4g is great for me. I get close to 3mb a second
