MKV playback

Using a player like MX Player or Dice, is playback smooth for you with mkv files using hardware acceleration? Do you get sound if the audio is ac3?

I am using BS Player (mostly) and 720p mkv playback is actually (and surprisingly) even better than on my Asus Transformer.

Don´t know about that.

I'm able to play 1080p anime that has ac3 audio, .ass subtitles, in an mkv container and the video track is in h264. I'm able to play it with MK Player. This device handles it like a champ. No lag here!

Please can you try http://www.auby.no/files/video_tests/ video 'birds'. Please download it first ( not streaming) and then play it with a hardware accelerated video player
thanks

It goes smooth with RockPlayer.

+1. I'm getting also slow playback with some video files (not only mkv) if HW activated with DICE or MX Player. Software Player is working like a charm on the other hand... I don't know if this is normal behaviour... In fact we don't have "hardware" to help decoding, have we?
@other people in this thread: note that he's asking about hardware decoding... You're all reporting smooth playback, but you don't specify if you use hardware decoding.
bye!

BTW, I can't play that "birds" file smoothly with my HTC One S. Tried Dice and MX Players, Software and Hardware.
I don't think our phone can handle 40 Mbps MKV smooth... No way.

Are you sure? I can't... Hardware player throws an error (something about system player can't play that file)... and software player is slow as DICE and MX... ¿¿¿???

Was watching a .mkv file with MX Player and it looked not that great. For what ever reason Mx Player wasn't supporting H/W Accelaration for this particular video. So i tried another player (BS Player) and the H/W Accelaration worked flawless and the video looked nicer =)

I was able to watch the birds video on mobo player without any perceived lag. From what I could tell, it was using HW acceleration by default, but I can't confirm that it was actually doing so.

quick question does your htc one s heat up when you watch those videos like 720p or 1080p?

Yup. Try with RockPlayer…
And, as asked, I tested by hardware… software just can't handle that.

I don't understand then... There's no config involved here, so I just can't understand why we can't play that file and you don't see an problem... ¿?
This is a screenshot of what I get if I try to play birds file within RockPlayer, in hardware mode:

As I said, there's nothing to configure, so I don't understand...
Do you use stock ROM, or a cooked one?

Stock…
Try download again, maybe the file is corrupted.

If it's playable in software mode I don't think it's corrupted... But I'll try anyway.

I had a copy of The Boondock Saints that had AC3 audio and the audio wouldn't play.
That doesn't answer the HW question but it might have just been the copy I "borrowed".
Sent from my rooted and debloated T Mobile HTC One S

I might found out what's wrong: I just did the update (to 1.78.401.2) and now I get the same error "this file can not be played with System Player".

Not the case I think, as I'm still with (branded) 1.53.(75).3. But definitelly it has something to do with versions, as you've seen.
bye!

Well before I had a older version: 1.53.401.2.

Then we could conclude that from version 1.53.xx.3 (mine), we've got this problem... ¿?
Third number is a rom id (401 is no branded, 75 corresponds to Orange Spain branded), so it doesn't care.

Problem with h/w + on N8010

Hey, i had a problem with the dts codec but i installed the custom codec from the forum successfully. The problem is, that the video can only be rendered by h/w, but there is still no sound (i have checked the s/w audio). with s/w the video can not be played and i have read in the forum that the h/w + mode works in this case. But if i enable h/w +, every video ( including the ones with ac3) doesnt work. it says the video can not be played. how do i get the h/w + working?
Thanks for your help

If the video plays well in HW mode & you are not getting audio with custom codec, SW audio means custom codec is not loded properly.
Is it showing the codec path under custom codec?

yes it is and there was no error with loading the custom codec

H/W+ is not compatible with all devices. If you are facing problems with H/W+, then you can still play with H/W with S/W audio enabled or S/W mode.

ok. but with h/w and s/w audio it doesnt work for dts movies. what can be the problem?

Are you getting video without problem?
Is there any toast msg like unsupported audio codec?

the .mkv movies with ac3 codec runs with sound and without problems.
no there is simply no sound available

What about video files with dts?
Are getting video or not?
Is there any error messages like unsupported audio?

I will be able to check it quickly if you share this video.

the ones with dts have video but no sound. its like the audio part is deleted.

@Sayazuri
When asks for resume don't resume. Press start over for first time. I think it's causing the problem. Else clear history from Settings 》General. It will erase the all activities record.

@bleu8888 do you want a dts sample or a ac3 sample?

I checked your video clip with custom codec.
And audio can be played with custom codec uploaded here.
Please try with latest custom codec. your custom looks like old one which is not compatible with latest MX Player.

i have installed the custom codec yesterday from the forum. it should be actually. it could be another problem on my android system. maybe from the new 4.4.2 update for my note N8010 ?

oh thats true. sry it was my fault the sample works on my device with audio too. but the movie still doesnt? i dont understand this. could the sample be in ac3?

I have found the problem ! i was trying to play this movie from my external harddrive with otg. i had a idea so i copied the movie to my sdcard and if i play this from there the sound works. looks like the mx player or the custom codec has some problem with OTG storages?

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+.
device info: http://specdevice.com/showspec.php?id=5aba-a03d-2fe5-94bc0033c587&lang=en
2. only way to turn off subtitles is at setting->subtitle, but at player ui , I can't turn off the mkv's sub, ( i also tried to turn off h/w acc at setting/subtitle)
i wan to: disabled subtitle in mkv, and show the one I downloaded (srt)
pic here:
two subs here, big one(srt file), small one(in mkv), mixed together, same layer?
I can control the big one's appearance, but not the small one

no, because a local streaming service is missing. so you need a special chromecast streaming app (i.e. LocalCast https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.stefanpledl.localcast&hl=de)

Well, VXG Video Player supports really all video/audio formats and containers. For example, MX Player doesn't. Also we have unique stream record and file trim feature.

Wow, we have reached 1 Million of installs! Thank you!

It is great! Congratulations.

[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.
Supported formats​
Audio: Vorbis, Opus, FLAC, ALAC, PCM/WAVE (μ-law, A-law), MP1, MP2, MP3, AMR (NB, WB), AAC (LC, ELD, HE; xHE on Android 9+), AC-3, E-AC-3, DTS, DTS-HD, TrueHD
Video: H.263, H.264 AVC (Baseline Profile; Main Profile on Android 6+), H.265 HEVC, MPEG-4 SP, VP8, VP9, AV1
Containers: MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV, Ogg, MPEG-TS, MPEG-PS, FLV, AVI ()
Subtitles: SRT, SSA, ASS, TTML, VTT, DVB
HDR (HDR10+ and Dolby Vision) video playback on compatible/supported hardware.

App shortcut for direct access to file chooser (Android 7.1+)
3rd party equalizer / audio processing support (e.g. Wavelet)
Media Session and Audio Focus support
Pause playback when disconnecting headphones
No ads, tracking or excessive permissions
Then there are the little things like supporting notch, fine tuning the brightness curve, making file open dialog remember its last position, forcing landscape when playing video...
To load external (non-embedded) subtitles, long press the file open action in the bottom bar. The first time you do that, you will be offered to select root video folder to enable automatic loading of external subtitles.

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

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
