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.

whereever you have installed your core player just put the files below into and heypresto your up and running - saving lots of time batch converting etc..
Remember you may not see the files in the device window as they are hidden files... if you want to see them I am sure you know what to do...

Error 530 login incorect
BRILLIANT!!!
Thank for the fix. I have tried numerous files, but this was the one. Good job!
I absolutely hate that the phone saves video's in ".mp4" and have some weird sort of "amr" audio codec involved? I can view these video's just fine on the phone, but if I pull them over to my computer, they play without sound. I have tried VLC, Quicktime, WMP, etc.
Now, I can rename the file extension to ".3gp" and it plays without any problems in Quicktime. But if I try to play it in VLC with the pre-defined extension, it says it doesn't have "SAMR" support, and only plays the video. I Googled it, found out all the reasons why (proprietary), and why it wouldn't ever be supported in VLC.
But is there any way to change the format the phone saves it in? It would be nice to able to send these video's from your phone to a friend and know that they could view it just fine.
I looked in Settings under the Camera....and nada.
Thanks!

From the video camera screen, go to Menu/Advanced/Capture Format and change it to H.263.
You are correct about changing the .mp4 extension to .3gp to allow it to play in Quicktime. But you should be able to play H.263 files on your computer without any changes.
I left mine in .mp4 and just downloaded the Klite codec pack, which lets you play .mp4 videos in classic win media on your laptop/PC. Works well on my laptop. Just make sure you choose custom install and deselect all the video options except for mp4 format. Otherwise it will conflict with other existing codecs such as divx.
http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/KLite_Codec_Pack_Standard/1094057842/2
Absolutely agree with Klite. All the time I install Windows,I don't use anything else than Klite codec pack in combination with very old(but really rocking) player ViPlay on all PCs/Ntbs in my surround. I can play almost everything without any problem.

Thank you, that worked. I had to actually make sure I was in video mode FIRST, then go to settings and the option to change the format was there.
Thank you!
And to others, I'm not complaining about not being able to watch the video on my own soo much...but I'd like to know that I could send the video out to friends and have a higher success rate in them being able to play the video.

I'm converting blurays to video files 1080p for my TF using catalyst and anydvd. Which video format allows embedment of subtitles but also allows me to turn it on and off when I watch? I know with mp4, once the subtitles are embedded, you are stuck seeing it forever. Any advice would be appreciated.
Try MKV. You can insert several subtitles. If you have a decent player, you should be able to play it with or without subs.

How do I change video format in catalyst? The default is mp4. I'm sorry for being so noob. Tired and can't seem to find the option.
Get mkvtoolnix.
Since mkv is a container you can insert audio/video/subs to them despite the audio/video/sub format.

I really appreciate your help. I really do. But I'd rather just use it straight from catalyst. Remember that I'll be doing my entire bluray collection. I don't want to manually add in subtitles each time. All I want is to find the correct settings and then insert and press go everytime.

Please enlighten me about catalyst, since I don't use it...
I suppose you can drag your files and make the program convert all of them to a specific format. If the program is able to extract the subs from the blueray, I would suggest to make it save them separate from the video (if possible). For example, having Superman.avi and Superman.srt, this way you don't embed the subs in the movie and you should be able to turn them on/off in your player.
Aside from that, .mp4 supports embed dubs, so it should be possible also to do it that way.
You might want to take a look at handbrake; I don't have much experience with subtitles but remember seeing settings.

MPEG-4 Part 14/MP4 is also a container format. The difference is in Matroska/MKV are probably less limited in what you can shove in it.

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...

I have a couple of seasons of a cartoon in mp4 format on my Galaxy Tab 2 and having never had a problem with MX before, now some of these files skip erratically and the audio and visuals are jumbled up in several episodes.
I assumed this was an issue with the file, but they play perfectly well on my PC through VLC.
Have updated to latest version through Google Play but still doing it.
Other files are fine, including .avi and another mp4.
Thoughts?

P.S
Im a bit of a luddite tbh so please use small words and not too many of them in the hope i understand what to do.

It may related to video resolution. Galaxy Tab 2 is not so fast device to run high resolution video.
What is the video resolution of your mp4 files?

Long press any video file
Select properties
Here you can see some basic info about video file.
Just check resolution for the files which doesn't have problem & the one which has problems.
Provide us with the media info of the video causing problems, as it will help us diagnose the issue. You can extract the media info using a PC app such as MediaInfo.
