hey guys, on my x1a....i try to play a movie, and it plays, but is very slow...... why is this, is there a fix for this at all?
Either have a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467590
OR
get coreplayer and change the settings (Menu/Tools/Preferences - Go to Video page and change video quality to high, Audio Page - Add some preamp if not loud enough etc...)

Dear friends,
A Coreplayer (official license) user as from yesterday, but like some others I have some "setting up trouble".
Lower quality videos are playing well, but crisp high quality movies I have located on the MicroDrive aren't at maximum framerate, like it was when using TCPMP 0.72RC. These movies are also pausing for a few seconds after the first seconds of playback (happens everytime when I open the movies). This all wasn't the case with TCPMP.
To make things clear, who can please help me with the best possible settings in Coreplayer 1.1.1?
I'm asking for all the important settings, so the Preferences pages Video, Audio, Buffering, Advanced, ATI IMAGEON and DirectDraw, including all their to set values, to check or uncheck boxed, etc.
I hope someone knows all these settings and that he/she is willing to share them with me!!
Thanks!!

Just a quickie - what benefits does Coreplayer have over TCPMP? - I've been very happy with TCPMP so far.
Has any one else experienced extremely poor audio quality with the HTC Streaming Media program on the Touch Dual? (Viewing vides from m.youtube.com)?
Using the HTC Streaming Media player on my Treo 750 the quality was decent but on the Touch Dual it is so poor that it is essentially not usable and I'm hoping that somebody knows 1) why and 2) how to fix it.
I've searched the forums and found plenty of information referencing watching YouTube on the phone but nothing that hits on my problem.
Thanks,
Bob
hi
try the diamond streaming player it has also bad quality but it feels like its better u can find it in the hack and dev section in the diamond apps thread
editr use the youtube player, it s slower at streaming but it has same video/audio quality as on pc! you can also find on this forum
Thanks, I'll give it a shot. I did try one of the YouTube players but for whatever reason it could never find any Videos (I didn't put alot of effort into figuring out why.)
Still would like to know why the audio quality with the default streaming player is so poor . . .
hi,
im currently using coreplayer 1.2.4 for youtube. the simply BEST player!!! i could send you cab if you want, you can set streaming options for high, medium and low quality. high works nice and smooth here! htc streaming player is worse quality because its streaming over RTSP. but coreplayer can also stream over h264, which has waayyyyy better quality
Odd thing, I have tried many rips of movies and most play fine, mp4 mp3 192 sound 4800khz, but some listed as ac3 sound dont play....picture is fine but no sound and yet I though sgs was ok with ac3, now i can convert the film and change the sound but that takes ages.....so is there an easy way to recode just the sound or is there a problem with phone?
have you tried a different video player?
yes tried a few, rock player will play the video bably picture breaks up but the odd thing is it is able to play the sound but it is also bad and breaking up but it tries to,
I wonder if i am missing a codec? and if so how to get it.
My default video player plays xvids, divx, h.264 AC3 encoded just fine. Infact using the 5.1 option does wonders to headphone surround sound especially using quality headphones.. Are you talking of .ac3 audio files only?
Its not all but last one was a rip of HellBoy 2, stunning picture and the audio codec is listed as mp4a 48000hz, picture is fine but just no sound.
Another was a rip of Armageddon, again nice picture but mp4a and gives no sound.
There has been others but I forget what codec they were, thought some were ac3...might be wrong, anyway tried these movies and only player that even tried to play the sound is rockplayer, but the sound is broken and so is the picture.
If it is the case mp4a is not playable then I would like to recode the film but just the sound, I want to leave picture as it is but change the sound to mp3, anyone know a program for this ?
cheers
I'm very happy to have an Iconia Tab A500, it's really powerful and the price is much cheaper, i often use the a500 to play movies, most of them can be played well. but some video is clear while the volume is very low, I tried to adjust the volume control, but the effect isn't very good, any suggestions?
Hi Elisabeth, do you have an example of a video with low volume? Maybe the audio stream insidesimply isn't any louder. I would like to investigate one.

What type of video files are having the issue? Streaming videos? Converted .mp4's? Usually this issue is due to the video source not your tablet.
I am having the same issue...I can play movies in the following formats:
divx/xvid
.avi
.mpg
.mp4
If the movies are on the internal memory or on the microSD card the movies play fine (except bluray sourced xvids). If I play some movies from a network share (not streaming them, but playing them over the network) then I get low volume and sound sync issues.
I find that movies that were converted from a bluray source have the volume and sound syncing issues....I am sure it has to do with the tablet (how it reads from ntfs and codec for xvid). All movies that have issues on the A500 run smooth as silk on a regular computer. I am hoping the new update will fix these issues.
which player do you have? are you sure the sound of your player have been adjusted to be the best state?
I have also seen this happen on mine playing various avi files with moboplayer and rockplayer. I feel like it has happened after I've played music with the android player but can't always duplicate it.
Sent from my A500 using XDA Premium App
I use the built-in player of a500, playback is pretty good, and I've adjust the volume, other videos can be played well, no volume problems. i'm quite agree with a2drew, this issue is due to the video source, but how to solve it?
by the way,these fault videos were downloaded from website.
Ah, some video conversion tools can solve this problem, with their built-in editing tool, u can adjust volume easily. But I did not find a free one, any guy know one can share with us.

I suggest you can try Foxreal video coverter, which i always use. Its trail version is free, and i buy it because it convert my mkv to my Xoom successfully. It has powerful editing functions, including adjust audio volume, and the sound quality of converted video is great. It is pity that i did't know as long as to be its fans on facebook, we can get 20% discount.
Hey guys i wanna ask someone who have a xperia x2 how is video playback quality cause i have put many videos with many file type MP4 WMV and the playback was rubbish the picture isn't clear.
even though the phone is said to support HD video playback but when i play a 360p video it isn't clear.
another thing about the youtube app videos are the same not clear just like am watching a very bad video.
some one can help???
What are you using to play them back ... the built-in player?
I was not happy with it -- skipped alot and soethimes just stopped and needed to reboot ... I now use Corel player -- and that seems to work well ...
i used Media player and the slideview player. the videos did not work on core player only audio played.
as for youtube app is there anything i can do the resolution is very bad can you help?
and thank you any way.
Did you look at the settings for CorePlayer that are listed in XDA? when I first loaded it, it also did not play the video ... They are under tools, settings, then select the video page --- I have mine set to GDI video output, High video quality, Only for 50% smooth zoom, and the Dither box checked.
I think those are the only changed that I made from the default settings, but is was awhile ago, so I am not 100% sure ...
I don't use youtube, so I can't help there ... but there is a new app listed with Omarket that is supposed to provide smooth video -- but I have not tried it ...
