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 ?

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!!

Just wondering... Could it be a player's problem? Did you try using another player app? I don't seem to have this problem playing mp4's in the stock player.

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

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?
Rgds
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.
It just gets stuck on 00:00. While streaming, loads fully but does not play. And when I forward it, I can see the video Images but won't play. I tried updating the app and tried many different versions of the app, but still no luck. The same videos play well in stock or other players. But I really want Mx Player to work. Please help. I'm using DN4 Rom on my Samsung galaxy s3 i9300. Ty in advance.

In which decoder?
If you have enabled H/W+ decoder (Network) or S/W decoder (Network), disable them and try again.
H/W decoder may work better in some occasions like buffering or authentication issues.
Ty. It's working now. Seems that the option "Stop other players" was causing the problem(see attachment). After almost going through each and every possible option and different settings. I found that disabling this option was the only thing I needed to do. Lol. Now all the videos are playing fine during call and when not on call. Ty for ur help and support. Peace ¥

I have this exact problem. I'm using an Android media player. MX Player used to work but recently, for an unknown reason, videos do not play and they are stuck at 00:00. The above solution did not resolve my problem. Disabling H/W+ (Network) did not work. Using H/W+, H/W or S/W encoding didn't work either. Neither does uninstalling and installing again.
What can I do?

I am keeps on asking logs. But, no one is providing the logs. There can be multiple reasons for a similar problem. So, until or unless we look into logs we can't provide the exact solution for your issue.

you can force MX Player to start the playback even when it fails get the audio focus by disabling "Play Alone" on Settings > Player
