Use mx viedo player from market

it plays 1080p videos but with too many lags.........but as far as i know nvidia tegra 2 can play 1080p videos , like lg optimus 2x..................

I do own a EEE pad transformer also powerd with the tegra 2 chip.
Search in the market for MX video player. It's free and, with soft decoding, it plays well.
If MX video player doesnt wrok (good) then try moboplayer.

Well, I heard that "best" solution for playing HD movies on Tegra-2 is Dice player. Because, they are trying to use GPU power of chipset to decode video stream in replace of missing 128-bit commands NEON module.
Anyway, HD video with profiles different from base (main) 3.1 will have lags or skip scenes, even freeze. The only way to play such files - convert them to much lower bitrate and play with MX player, for example, in fast software mode.

From what I have tried dice player runs 1080p .mp4 files pretty fine.
But it seems you are trying to play very high bit rate 1080p .mkv/.mp4 files which I guess gets a bit too much for R / most other smart phones to play.
If the above is true then you'll have to convert those videos to a lower bit rate format.
Hope it helps.

But those videos were running on my friends sgs2 properly without Any third party apps
And I have read that sgr supports
Full he playback and now the native player is not able to do so.

becoz our tegra supports 1080 p video playing capabilities.... (as we can play in optimus 2x but only 24 fps)
butt somehow samsung has blocked some of the capabilities of sgr

1080p playback?
So in short we can't play 1080p videos on our SG-R?

We can play them buddy . . . !
I have played some good quality 1080p MP4 videos on my device. Its just that it shouldn't be a very high bitrate. I have yet to try any mkv files though, will try & update here.
Tegra 2 naively supports recording of 1080p videos which had been disabled by Samsung due to some reasons currently not clear.
But they can't block a device which naively supports recording 1080p videos from playing Full HD videos as it depends on which video player you use.
The generic Samsung player doesn't play 1080p videos but Dice player does and its currently free.
Hope this helped.

Unable to play 1080p 50fps videos

Hi,
my note is unable to play my 1080p 50fps videos (from my home HD camcoder), i tried MX player but no succes (HW,HW, SW decoder) - I get only few frames per second... Is there any solution?
Thanks.

Try Mobo player.

I suggest bsplayer, it did the trick for me.

I like BSPlayer. It seems to work well.

I think that 50 fps are over 30 fps max of HW video decoder capabilities.
Also i suspect a very high bitrate from a video camera file...
I don't think that you will be able to play it smoothly with any software.

I have Mobo, MX and BSplayer. Absolutely BSplayer does the best job. If it doesn't play your video, nothing will. You may have to re-encode with Handbrake.

Just tried the BSPlayer, you are right, it plays everything even files that the Mobo couldn't, thanx a lot for the tip!

I'm currently using non rooted galaxy s duos. my devices is unable to play hd videos.whenever I try to play a hd file via mx player it is unable to use h/w+ decoder while h/w+ decoder works fine while playing non hd content. so what is preventing it from playing hd files? is it Samsung or the hardware specifications.will rooting the device help in hd playback? please help as I have seen devices with lower hardware specifications that are able to play hd videos like xperia neo v.
waiting for some good answers.

no i'm trying to play a 720p video.

looking at the specs of your phone it must allow at least 720p playback. have you tried other video players like vlc or dice player?

i tried most of the apps bt none of them has helped.my friend's hcl u1 tablet also doesn't support hd playback by default but when i tried playing a 1080p movie in mx player by enabling h/w+ decoder it played flawlessly so i'm wondering why i'm unable to select h/w+ decoder in my galaxy s duos while playing specifically hd videos only otherwise h/w+ decoder works fine fr non hd content.

if you want you can root and use scripts like thunderbolt to boost your phone's performance.
h/w+ codec doesn't work for all videos. so its no use thinking about it.

In gallary of galaxy s duos it should run 720p video of avi and mp4 smootly but the other for the format we need to install player
But u have installed the mx player it should had detected video format to run smooth
Try different player like Bsplayer or go to setting of Mx player and switch to s/w decoder for all the video It should work

i have tried every thing but nothing is helping me out...

it works
changing the decoder from hardware to software in mx player did work! Really!
1080p runs like a charm, at naturally smooth frame rate.
answer is simple, graphics hardware in s dous is not capable of handling the video on its own and with full hardware acceleration. point of shame, though, ace 2 can even record camera at 1080p. on the other hand, processor is good enough.
my guess is, class of sd card also matters. there may be other apps using the card and for mx player, it only gives a fraction of the full read speed which makes the frame rate look bad.
I used class 10 scan disk, 16 gigs and s/w encoder in mx player, it runs as smooth as the screen can bear. not as robust as my galaxy s2 does. but it goes to the better screen quality, instead..

[Q] cant play some mkv's

Hey there,
I mainly use my tab for videos and ebooks, and i faced problems in running some mkv's.
basically i was trying to play an anime video by coal girls but the player did not play it.
These are 720p videos with flac audio.
Also happens with videos by re-packers like horrible subs and gotwoot...
I know that the tab can play 720p mkv's watched a lot of 720p movies on it flawlessly. But then why does it fail to run these.
P.S. : I also tried mxplayer but it plays the video on s/w decoder and that too very poorly even after enabling multi core decoding for s/w decoder.
Thanks in advance.

cant play 10 bit video's as well
well i tried playing some more videos, could'nt play 10 bit-720p-BD-AAC video's as well.. :crying:
Tried a lot of players, default samsung can't play it and players like mx and dice default to s/w which stutters so much that the video is unwatchable ...
I was hoping that someone had experienced it before and tried a custom ffmpeg i.e custom codecs to solve the problem.

plays fine on nexus 7
I played the same video on friend's nexus 7 and s2 which plays it pretty well on s/w decoder, however the tab 2 lags like hell in s/w decoder.....
Don't know what to do now...
Can anyone try the video sample i uploaded in post 3 and post the results....

Or you can use splashtop 2 (free on market) to stream the video to the tab... Works perfectly for those who don't want to convert tons of videos...
Final conclusion : There seems to be a problem with the native h/w rendering capabilities...so no software can help it..
720p mkv + flac audio or 10 bit 720p videos are not playable natively mostly due to the poor gpu, and poor performance with s/w decoders.

I use BS player. It plays everything, using H/W decoder. Plays local, or off the network.
Use the ARMv7 version, and also download the BS hardware decoder, it is vastly improved over the stock or AOSP one.

Installed bs player free + arm v7 vfp cpu from market, but it still plays the video using s/w decoder with terrible frame rates. Frame dropping option also dosen't help. And when i choose h264 hi10 to be played on h/w decoder , there is black screen with only audio.
Try the sample which i have uploaded in post 3 and post the results. I'm on stock rom so maybe cm/aosp plays it better. If so i may install a custom rom..

not possible to play 10 bit videos at the moment
So i finally dug around the forums myself and realized that there is no android device that can play 10 bit encoded videos at the moment, not even tegra 3.......
source : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1425664
At the moment, 10 bit encoding i fairly new and requires much more power than ur 8 bit mkv's which were used to have earlier.
So basically our tab can play 8 bit 1080p videos flawlessly, but fails to do so for a 10 bit 720p video on h/w decoding i.e ur stock samsung player will refuse to play it and all the players that u will try will play it on s/w decoder no matter what u try and yet u'll get very bad frame rates.
SO the solution is to :
1) re encode the videos, which did'nt work for me cuz i lose the subtitles while converting(some error)
2) can stream using splashtop2 ( free in play store) which is okay but need to have very high net speeds..... :/
If u cant play ur vid's properly, first see the details if they are 10 bit or hi10p if yes try the above.
Cheers
