720p mp4 with ac3 audio plays without audio or choppy video

default player will not output audio on this file. other players may output audio, but choppy video.
i can give file details, but i think it definitely should play. maybe i need to install avc codec or something? sure hope our device can get full playback support on mp4 files!
is there any reason this file should not play?:

I am having this problem too! with hardware decoding, it plays 720p files smoothly but with no sound, with software decoding, it plays sound but its laggy!

anyone?....

which app are you using to play the video?

[Q] Certain .mkv file cannot play

Hi,
I download MX player on my Toshiba L4300VM Android TV and stream the movie using MX player from my computer through ES file manager networking feature. Working great so far, but there is one .mkv file I not able to play (but I able to play from my computer), and it cause my TV restart everytime I click on it.
I use mediainfo to compare the 2 working videos and the not-working one, any idea why?

That's the problem. Yes it's an mkv container, but the video is encoded in RealVideo format. Since RV is proprietary, I doubt your device supports hardware playback. Since it's proprietary, I don't think ffmpeg supports it. MX Player is based on ffmpeg, so whatever ffmpeg plays, MX Player can play.
Try playing it on software mode. If that doesn't work, then you'll probably have to reencode the video.

[BUG] H/W+ Decoder Displays Blocks

When I want to play a 576p (16:10 anamorphic) PAL file, I get these blocks on my device.
i.imgur.com/zFFauHW.jpg
Sound is fine. If I switch to S/W it hiccups but without the blocks. I can't use the H/W decoder because it's on my NAS. When I download this file onto my device, it plays fine in H/W mode, in VLC and in my stock player. I have multiple files like this, but all have blocks. PC plays it fine. I don't get these blocks when I try to play files with an 572p anamorphic PAL setting. I've tried tweaking my Handbrake settings, but I get these blocks every time, only in MX.
I'm using the latest MX Player and custom codec on a Samsung Galaxy Tab GT-P1000 with Android 2.3.6

Would you share one of your videos?
Thanks

The original files are about 800-1000 MB, so here is a 50,7 MB (68 seconds) sample. Same problem happens

Are you using stock ROM? I've tested your video in my Galaxy S which has Hummingbird platform and running Android 2.3.6 just like yours.
But cannot reproduce this issue. I will try again if I have a chance to try Galaxy Tab. For the meantime, please use HW decoder instead.
BTW, custom codec may not compatible with test version (beta version). Does it happen even with default codec?
Thanks.

The original ROM when I bought it had Android 2.2, but I updated it via Samsung Kies to 2.3.6. With the original ROM, H/W+ videos were impossible to play.
I have no idea what you mean with beta version, but I've tried it with and without the custom codec. Same result, even when removing the one(s) downloaded from the Play store

I've tried a few, but the blocks still appear.
About a year ago I had a similar video that displayed that problem but I didn't think to report it at the time. Also a PAL anamorphic widescreen video

So, there's no blocking with HW mode when the files is stored on device?
Also curious, does HW+ work or does it block?
bleu, think it might be to do with the 25.000 fps? This is just a guess on my part.

There is no blocking in HW mode. I cant test it when not stored on my device because HW only works with mp4
H/W+ only blocks with these videos on my NAS, external sd and internal storage
I have other 25 fps videos that play just fine, same handbrake settings

After encoding all my files, I found one file that didn't block like the others. It uses the same handbrake settings except for a extra 2 pixel crop on the right side (36 instead of 34)
Also I noticed something missing that does occur in every blocking file: the Original display aspect ratio is missing in this one. Might that be the reason of the blocking?

After encoding all my files, I found one file that didn't block like the others. It uses the same handbrake settings except for a extra 2 pixel crop on the right side (36 instead of 34)
Also I noticed something missing that does occur in every blocking file: the Original display aspect ratio is missing in this one. Might that be the reason of the blocking?

I've tried this video on many devices but not Micromax Canvas.
But can't reproduce this issue, looks like a device specific issue.

It happen with some 2-3 files only .other files are working properly.

I can confirm that I'm facing this problem too.
I'm playing a movie and it's going fine. Then I pause & minimise it to do something else. When I go back to movie, the screen is dark and it doesn't play. Sometimes only the audio plays and the subtitles roll by, but video remains black. Sometimes if I press the "go to beginning" button, video resumes, but if I try to seek forward, it goes black again. Then I switch to sw codec, and everything's fine.
Using default codec on lollipop 5.1, Nexus 10 (manta).
