Media Player? - EVO 4G General

I have been looking on youtube everywhere but nobody has demo the music player so i'm guessing its the same as on the Hero.Evo owners can u tell me if it is the same or post a pic of the music player?

its the same

get real player beta hands down the best

the stock player is pretty decent, but the best music player i have used is MixZing. read the reviews, it's awesome.
for video playback get mVideoPlayer

does Mvideo play any container?(or most containers?)

it is a thin wrapper around the android video playback architecture, so it will play what android normally plays. your best bet is h264+aac in an mp4 container with the proper settings (basically anything the iphone will play, without protection). it also adds some nice features the htc gallery app doesn't have, such as saving your spot in your videos, subtitle support, etc.

Cool thanks I was hoping for something that would let me play my files unconverted but with handbrake it's not much of a hassle to convert

It's pretty much the same as the Hero, but it seems to do steaming MP3s and whatnot now. Before with my Hero, it would have to download them, and then I would have to play them.

stock music i'm sure is the same.
there finally is a music player with an eq, but i don't remember where it is. i think the apk can be found in the nexus forums. seems to work okay.
right now, i'm kind of digging 'cubed' (actually named with a superscript 3 on the market, but if you search for cubed, you'll find it part way down the list). beautiful interface, and widget. i finally may have found an app worth donating to, lol

I like meridian .. have tried them all..

i don't have android phone... do any of the media players allow you to create playlists from the phone? that way i can dump all my music on my phone and organize it on the fly.

mVideoPlayer is great. cheers

Does anyone know of a way to tell the cubed player which folders to look for music in? It keeps pulling in game sounds from sniper vs sniper....

Video Player with on screen controls?

I'm currently using Core Media Player and it's work fairly well, but I'm annoyed that it doesn't have any on screen controls when videos are played fullscreen.
I'm looking for a video player that has on screen controls like the built in YouTube player. (tap the screen for controls, tap again to to go back to the video).
This makes it much more convenient to skip through videos while in fullscreen mode.
Does anything like that exist?
I recommend Kinoma Play, It's a super player/app for many reasons. And it has all the features you asked for!
I actually bought It!
Haven't tried all features yet...
For some reason It didn't recognize a file, once, that I had on my memory card so I alternate between Kinoma (mostly for the awesome streaming support) and CorePlayer.

Thanks. I bought Kinoma using Trialplay. The interface is very nice, but video playback is aweful. I read on the Kinoma forum that it's designed for streaming and not for local playback.
I wish there was an optimized setting for local playback as well. The interface is MUCH better than CorePlayer.
I hope they update Kinoma to have better local playback at some point. Right now it's unuseable.
What version of core player are you using. I have tried every version with my TMO TP2 and none has worked. I don't mind if it's not touch screen, do you have a cab your willing to share. Thanks

Which applications to install first?

I'll be new to Android, and don't really know what is available. I did a search for Android Marketplace, and got "This is a showcase for some of the featured and top ranked applications and games available on Android Market. For a comprehensive, up-to-date list of the tens of thousands of titles available, check out Android Market on your handset."
It's not particularly easy to find stuff, when you don't really know what you're looking for. I will find out tomorrow what the marketplace is like, on the EVO.
But, in the few remaining hours before that becomes possible, I wanted to find a few applications to install and play around a bit and try to get a feel for the system.
So, what should I/will you install tomorrow (or later)? I'm sure I'll find some cool stuff on my own eventually, but some suggestions from current enthusiasts would be welcomed by me, and others I'm sure.
I figure everyone's got a favorite app or 5, how about some suggestions?
one of the neatest, but only useful in clear sky at night, outside, preferably in the country, is google sky maps.
fring rocks for syncing up skype and gtalk. you'll dig it for the new vid call thing, i'm sure
weatherbug elite is my weather app of choice
andexplorer is what i use to navigate through my sdcard
cubed is a good music app. very nice looking (app actually spelled with superscript 3, if you go looking for it on market)
chrome to phone is good for sending links to the phone, but i think it needs froyo
google navigation should come stock, but it's a rockstar
vlc remote
terminal emulator
others - where, layar, wikitude, and adfree for sure, if you're rooted
Excellent list, thanks!

Thank, but I am looking for something to play my locally stored music and videos, not streaming.
I found and installed the cubed app, but it just says it can't find files in the playlist or some such thing, and the only choice I have is to exit. So a no go on that one also.
I'll keep looking
let me know when you find it the player!
im kinda disappointed that there is no flash viewer (*.flv) for files that reside on the sd card. unfortunately it looks like we have to wait for coreplayer to come out.

Good media player?

Just wondering what people are using for a media player primarily a video player?
I am using RockPlayer and to be honest it is faultless. Plays everyting I throw at it including h/x264 and ac3 sound.
There is one small issue and that is with configuration. I wouldn't mind a few more features like volume boosters etc.
I commute so tend to just drop videos on the phone to watch. Amazingly smoother and faster than winmo.
i personally use and like DoubleTwist. i havent' used RockPlayer yet.. but i have heard many good things about it.
Doubletwist is nice but seems to be okay with h264 but not xvid
Is there any app out there that lets you change the song in the middle of doing something like using gamedroid? Kinda like the home button on the ipod touch when you tap twice it brings up the media player?
i use mixzing for song playback. and i use mvideoplayer for video files (doesn't play divx but offers nice playback control and stuff)
Just so you guys know, there are Android general forums that might get you more replies and ideas.
Android General forums and Android Apps subforurm.
The only reason why i used rockplayer is cuz it plays rmvb and rm files (a MUST have for hardcore chinese drama lovers =P)
if anyone knows of another that can play realmedia files, please let me know cuz i'm also looking into other options
+1 for doubleTwist here
I use one called simply 'Music Player' (it was the top hit on the apps store). Excellent, fond my music straight away with no configuration, small footprint, instant start with no lag and a great FF/REW function. Unlike Windows Media Player :0)

[Q] Best Music Player and Best Video player

Which is the best music player and best video player for Milestone 2 (considering hardware n stuff especially when it comes to video)??
It would be nicer if the video player can support formats like avi, divx , flv etc.
I bought PowerAMP as music player but haven't really played around with it. Though I think it's a decent music program. Others swear on winamp. I never had this program on my computer, since I looked for something else. On the marketplace PowerAMP had really good rankings!
For videos VPlayer is the way to go. There is this 30 days trial shareware. Try it out, it eats everything you throw at. Avi, of course, divx, I think xvid, not sure about flv. Try it out and buy it if you like it!

Thanks for the reply mate..
I myself have found WinAmp pretty good..
As far as VPlayer goes, I did try the trial version. But I had sync issues with a 720p .flv . After trying it this question actually came up..
There also is this VLC Player coming for android. I heard rumors. Are you following smartphone news?
Here you can see the progress: http://git.videolan.org/?p=vlc/vlc-android.git;a=summary
I do read around. But did not stumble upon that.
Seems like good news. May be we'll see VLC on android soon and hopefully it will live up to its desktop counterpart.
And I must add Cinema (by Greg Millam) is a nice video player for Android. Though it only plays whatever your stock player plays (as it uses hardware decoder). Still it is good.
Okay, Im going to give it a try. Thank-you!

I used to use PowerAMP.now I get soundbest player in my phone.I think PowerAMP is the best,but I donnt like its dazzling setting and its UI.
I recommend MX player and Dice player.
For music I use UberMusic... it's beautiful and very functional. Worth every cent.
For video I use MoboPlayer.
Give a try to the awesome ³ (Cubed Player) from Filipe Abrantes, if your music has correct tags.
MX player for local videos, vevo and vimeo for their online great stuff.
musicXmatch for music and MX Player for videos

PowerAmp is just an awesome app!
Power Amp Agree its awsome but i have to use apollo because power amp dont start automat when i plug headspeakers ;/ pilot didnt work to. Also have a problem because power amp take all audio from sd card... so i listen to music and...i have movie..and i have my recorded voice calls...this is ridiculus
Hi i prefer the rocketplayer for music(very good for all formats) it has good equilizer setting possibilities,and for video i take MX player too, there are more codecs included.

Hi,
I also use power amp and mx player. And for both apps you can choose the folders to scan to avoid having your ringtones or other sounds played by the player... as for me, power amp starts playing music when I plug a jack. I am using cm10 from Tezet.

Stock video player vs RockPlayer/VPlayer

Hey guys, I'm wondering... I can pretty much play everything with the stock Samsung video player, even 720p MKVs (would that be due to hardware H264 acceleration on the Hummingbird?), but I've been thinking... those other players, like VPlayer and RockPlayer seem pretty popular. Are they any better in quality, compatibility or take a lighter hit on battery? Are they worth my time and money?
I believe they just give you more options like playlists and such. I personally have never found any need to download a third party player to date.
Pretty sure those exist because most android phones do not have the codec support the vibrant has out of the box. I haven't felt the need to get it.
mVideoplayer is the best third-party app among the bunch imho. It has playlist options, slide finger across the screen to forward/rewind instead of steady press on a button and such. Tap on one side to bring up volume rocker, tap on the other side for brightness settings, and on another for bookmarking a scene. Plus it remembers the scene from which you stopped watching on each and every video you have - which the native video player does only for the current video you are watching
And one more thing, it has better zoom options than the stock player. Some videos i downloaded via youtube play full screen where the native player only plays it with a letter-box.
I prefer the QQplayer: support also avi-files and srt-files
MoboPlayer is the best!

i use only the stock video player, but I cant play .mov files, so I have to use rockplayer
Also the stock player won't play .flv files

My stock player plays them just fine...
Any player that will work with files having 6 channel audio? I could never find one.
Mobo is king of players, if it can't do it none can.
