This right here tells me that you most probably have a problem with your video files. Sorry, I am not familiar with the BS player (BTW, who the hell in their right mind would call their software BS? Huh?), so I can't help you with that. But if the stock player throwing an error, I would suspect the video files...
playing movies from external card error

Hi,
I have some question about the video and the HD2:
Which is the best format that the phone can play? Witch application do I have to use to watch at the movie? Windows media player is it ok? I tried to watch at an *.mp4 but it freezes. I tried an *.avi and it doesn't work. Coreplayer works fine but it jumps every 3 minutes. Cannot understand the reason.
I suggest a simple wiki to help everyone...

I use divx player if you search the forums you will find. It works great with HD2 and I tried .avi and it plays perfectly without any issues.
I transfered some 720p .mkv files to my tablet (external sd) and the video plays fine in both the built in player and in mx player but I don't get any sound. If I play a smaller .avi file it plays fine with sound in both players. Any ideas?
Sorry if it has been posted before.
try using another player like diceplayer. I used to have this problem when playing mini 720p with the stock player, but not with the diceplayer
I'll just leave this here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1686675
Long story short: use software decoding for the audio.
Dice player works fine. Can I somehow watch full screen with out the black row with the three dots in de bottom?
Starting to hate this tablet more and more every day..
If you're rooted, get GMD GestureControl from the Play Store, and install Busybox.
Im noot rooted. Will probably root when a good port of AOKP is out

Why hate this tablet? it's the 3rd best atm!
And it's not the tablet's fault! Your video might have an unsupported audio format, or it may be corrupted.. Try playing the video from your tab on the pc. And can you precise what format is the audio?

I hate the lag when i browse the internet, my SGS is faster when scrolling around on internet pages. The internet apps I have tried freezes up ang gives FC at least 5 times every time i on the internet.
And many other things.
The videos works fine on my PC. It worked once with dice player but now I don't get any sound with dice player =/

New device, new fw, new problems. Most will be fixed by updates. The build.prop tweaks, for instance, made my .17 DE internet browsing _in powersave mode_ totally lag free (!).
You should wait for firmware updates, though. I'm afraid of what will happen if you accidentally brick your device.
Sound in players is accomplished by choosing software decoding of the audio.
I use a registered copy of ChewTune to rip iTune TV shops for watching on my TF700.
The transfer will state completed and apepar the correct size but about halfway to three Q's through the show it will free with a loud buzz.
Nothing I have tried such as moving beyond the point will help.
Tried several movies players with same results.
My question is there software that would scan the movie file and report or fix coding problems?
Thanks

Sounds to me like you either have something configured incorrectly in the ripper, or its buggy, but in either case it is unlikely a simple edit will fix the videos. The problem isn't likely a playback issue on your TF700, but try playing the vids on a pc and see if they work. If they do you might need to encode them differently. If not, then you might need a new ripper.
I am experiencing similar thing, but any show/movie stutters from beggining.
I use BS Player which worked perfectly fine until 4.2 version of android.
I think it is the ROM, not the movies. As mentioned, they work fine on PC/BoxeeBox - and they worked just fine on infinity, too - but not anymore.

Using MX Player on both 4.1 and 4.2 with no problems at all, perhaps your problem comes from BS Player.
I can second. I'm on CM10 using MX Player, and it can play my 1080p/5.1 bluray rips without any problems.

Been there, done that! Guys, loose both BS and MX and get Dice Player and all your problems will magically just go away! Works flawlessly over wifi too. Took me a month to figure this out and I had all your same issues. Thanks @jtrosky!!

I've always selected HW+ decoder but SW decoder always worked just fine for me too
Also have you tried playing other videos, or playing these videos on another device, to make sure it's not just a bad download or something?
Oh I just saw it's an mkv file, I use almost exclusively mp4, that shouldn't matter (android tablets are capable of playing both). Maybe try an mp4 or avi just to check and see
The problem is that it is japanese and i need english subs.
Will try thanks.

try symlinking the external sdcard directory to the internal sdcard
busybox ln -sf /<external card location of>/<goofy movies directory> /sdcard/<desired-location>
i thought hardcoded subtitles couldn't be changed or turned on/off ?
maybe you need to install mx player and it's codec pack as well?

I forgot to mention the codec pack, good call. Symlinking the external sounds like a good idea too. I also was under the impression that by definition, hardcoded subs cannot be turned on or off, that's what makes them "hardcoded."
I use VLC player on tab 4 7.0 and it works fine with all subtitles as long as .srt/.sub file is named same as video file.
Ok so here's the deal...
Ive had the phone for like a month now. But i just realized that the phone has an odd problem with playing videos (some high quality ones)...
The problem is the movie constantly lags and gives a maximum of 2 or 3 fps...
Ive tried different players and using other file explorers...
And one thing i have noticed is that the time of the video keeps jumping and ticking like 00:48 to 49. 45. 47 and then 50....
Ive tried restarting the phone and the software is up to date...
I updated my phone to newest fw (.235) and I'm using MX Player Pro, watched the new logan movie in 1080p bluray. Worked flawlessy.
If you're not already on .235 you can try to flash, if you are you could try and reset the phone.
Or just try MX Player.
I used vlc and it worked ok...
The mx and the original player still lag tho...
I don't have any idea for it , can you help me ?
