As you may be aware that our beloved Galaxy R is not among the best cellphones out there in terms of video playback. The native video player cannot play a Full HD (1080p) video without some form of conversion/down scaling in terms of resolution and bit-rate to a format compatible with the Galaxy R. Even 3rd party video players like MX video player use s/w decoding for such unsupported videos which leads to stuttering and skipping
Galaxy R is a WVGA device ie. it has a screen resolution of 800 x 480. So a video which has been down scaled to this resolution looks best on our device. Though it can natively play some(Not all) 720p (1280 x 720) videos, such videos are a waste of free space in my opinion because Galaxy R does not support video out(MHL) nor does it have a HD screen resolution, as such that extra resolution is wasted.
Rather what I have noticed is, down scaling a video to the native device resolution (800 x 480) with a higher bit-rate gives a much more smoother video playback (equal to or even better than a 720p video). The in-built video converter that pops-up on your computer when transferring a non-compatible video does not produce videos of the best quality because of lower quality codecs used. After researching with a few video converters I have concluded that Handbrake is the best and optimum video converter for our device with superior quality codecs plus it is a freeware:good:
How to use Handbrake for converting videos?
OR
What are the optimum settings for our Galaxy R?
1. Download the Handbrake video converter from this link.
2. Install it and open it.
3. Load the video to be converted using the Source >>> Video File button. Once loaded, Click on iPod Legacy in presets and then change the settings to resemble this: (Picture Tab)
Note: Don't forget to set the destination file name. For those of you who still want 720p videos remember to change the width and height to 1280 & 720 resp.
4. Head over to the Video Tab, change the settings to resemble this:
Note: Higher the avg bit-rate better the quality of the video. You can increase the bit-rate as per your quality choice.
5. Head over to the Audio Tab, change the settings to resemble this:
Note: Keep the bit-rate maximum for better sound quality.
6. That's it. Hit the Start button and wait for your video to be converted.
7. Transfer the converted video to your device and enjoy!!!
Note: The above settings are known to work and give optimum results.
If you are feeling more adventurous you can play with a few advanced settings like audio gain, different sound codecs, frame rates, bit-rates etc until something breaks...

Hey Droidster.. Great post.. :good:
Can you post some stats.. about size reduction in the resulting video files? i mean.. if we have a 1280x720 50 mb file, how much will it reduce in size when we use your optimum settings on handbrake with 800x480 resolution?

It actually depends on the bit-rate that you are using. If the bit-rate is not high, then there will be a considerable size reduction. A 50 MB file would come down to 30-35 MB. But if you want higher quality...you need to up the bit-rate a bit...which leads to size increase of around 5MB per 5000Kbps.

Superb buddy..Now I felt the real HD in R

I found it interesting. ..but want some more details
Actually I got fitted a mega audio system in my car which supports 800×480 resolution and when I used handbrake for descaling some videos for the same..videos get converted but are not played on the system...win ce is the operating system and 6.2 inc is the display

Any ideas why this is showing as "This item is not compatible with your device" for my HP Touchpad running jscullins CM10.
Has anyone tried side loading it?

Until XBMC gets hardware support, this is pretty viable option. Good picture, and full removes the navbar on my nexus 7 for full screen. I CANNOT get it to pull all of the meta data for all films and tv shows though. XBMC pulls everything down perfectly. Archos is probably 80%. Incredibly annoying.

What's in this version:
IMPORTANT: MPEG-2 plugin must be updated to latest version to avoid crash
7.0.10 - January 11th, 2013
- Correct aspect ratio on some H264 video
- Add H264 Hi10p SW decoding support (animes)
- Add VC1 & MPEG2 HW decoding when natively supported by platform
- Fix camera video playback on OMAP4 (Galaxy Nexus)
- Add preliminary WTV support
- Fix wrong color conversion on some Galaxy S2/Note2
- Fix HDMI output on some devices (essentially Samsung based hardware)

First of, as far as I remember you could not post link to paid applications! especially as this has no free version!
Second, to comment directly on the topic, I think that, no matter how good it is (and I have the vague feeling it is not), to pay both for the application AND the codec is pure robbery! and, in the application page it is not written anywhere that you need the paid codec! you will buy the app and then realize that in order to be able to play you need to buy the even more pricey codec! yes, you put the link towards a free codec, but in my opinion it is even more confusing.

I didnt know we cant link to paid links. And you are wrong, the UI on this app beats others out there with similar attempts
Yes agree that codec price is rip off hence the link to the free codec
50% off sale now on
7.1.3 - January 24th, 2013
- Fix a major bug that prevented to read long MP4 files on most devices
- Fix MPEG-2 decoding on tegra2 devices

Free version now available
7.2.0 - February 13th, 2013
- Allow to use another video player application when launching the video playback (OFF by default, must be enabled in preferences)
- Keep database information (poster, description, resume point, etc.) for removable storage (external SDcard, USB drive) for 30 days. Restore it when the storage is plugged again.
- Fix UTF-16 subtiltes support
- Add more languages in the subtitle downloader settings
- Longer time-out for SMB discovery

Can this player work on 2.3.7 system. Did anywhere download for this syste, because write work on 4.0 or later.

Really needs more ways to sort. I sort my media by date modified to see what's new today. Alphabetical is nice when I know what's there already.

I use Archos Video Player in Sony Android TV to play videos from SMB shares on Open Media Vault running on a raspberry pi.
I dont see a way to resume a video from where I left (Resume button missing?)
But, I was able to Resume videos when i played videos from USB pen drive connected to Android TV.

Hi
I’ve paid version but I canno read HEVC video (x265)
Could you help me please?
Regards
Fausto

Is it possible to load external audio track?
I have a mkv format video with internal ac3 audio and external mp3 audio track. MP3 audio file has the same name as vidio one, but archos player doesn't pick it up.

Hey guys, so I purchased this for my Shield TV and I love it for the more part, but I am having some annoying problems.
- Archos Video player won't let me add some files to the library, simply nothing happens after I select it. Even if it was in my library at first and then removed.
- Some files won't be updated with a poster, and I cannot find a way to manually update it! This is super frustrating.
- Same with backgrounds, cannot seem to find a way to manually update them, very frustrating.

Hi
latest HEVC with mkvmerge v11.0.0 "Alive" don't run with Archos Video Player
do you have any solutions please?

good I'm trying to play with archos droid player with Google Drive but I do not know exactly how you recognize the files if you can tell me

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

well the embed subtitle still there.
1. I tested these:
open/disable : Gui hw
open/disable : setting/subtitle
===> embed always there. (only ext subtitle can be controlled. )
but every condition, the embed subtitle loaded 3 second later after ext subtitle. (or 2 paragraph later)
2. two srt file are the same. (I made this mkv file )
work fine on my galaxy s4, all these two can be disabled and controlled.
I use the pad as hdmi source to my tv, movie file is mkv, placed at my router's hdd share.

Goto Settings > Subtitles > text & disable "ignore fonts specified in ssa". It should work now.
Infact It's disabled by default. You might have enabled it.
It look like the rendering is rotated when MX Player uses other fonts​ instead of the one from ssa. We will improve it in future.

Yes, I enabled it. Because if not, it takes a long time to cache the font.
P.s. The SSA is just a few KBs large, I don't think it can contain a CJK font in it. So where do Mx Player cache the font? Mx Player never successfully to play a video with CJK SSA subtitle on my device if I don't enable that option, it just keep caching the font for a long time (Once I waited 30~40 minutes, but it still keeps caching. Is it really caching the font?)

It may happen due to font cache corruption or invalid/broken font.
Even if you select "Ignore fonts mentioned in SSA", MX Player will still cache the fonts.
goto settings » general & clear the font cache if the problem persists.

[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.

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

sounds like it. Thx
Now my quest for finding the PC version can go on

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.

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
