Hi,
I recently got an HTC Wizard and I like the PDA Phone very much. However I am having problems with video playback. None of the video files I have play very well on the Wizard. I get very jumpy video and choppy sound. I have tried playing WMV and Divix files and they will not play on either TCPMP WM Player. I tried closing all running programs but the videos still do not play well. I thought it might be a slow SD card but the videos play perfectly on my Dell Axim X50V. Is there a better Media player I could try? Or maybe updated codecs?
Thanks

ER, simple tip:
Try resampling the videos to 240x320. Resizing the videos(any one of them, shrinking) takes a lot of oomph, which the Wizard does not have.
Tip:
1.Use PocketDivXEncoder. Simple tool. You can't mess up with this.
2.Overclock to ~240MHz
3. The Dell has a FASTER processor, so there might be some hiccups on the Wizard.
Hi I've just received my HD and overall I'm very impressed. I was a smartphone user previously so I’m having to come to terms with TouchFlo and Windows Mobile all at the same time!
The only real problem I’m having is playing .avi video. I've transferred an .avi file to my memory card but it won't play in CorePlayer (need the AC3 codec I think) and TCPMP doesn't load (get a crash screen) and mobile divx plays the video but it’s a mess on the screen.
I've even tried to encode the video file with PocketDivXEncoder but I think this needs TCPMP to play and it looks terrible in Mobile Divx.
So my question is how do I successfully play an .avi as this is one of the main reasons I bought my HD.
Also one further question with appointments in the calendar when I get a reminder the notification pop up doesn't appear till I click on the alarm icon at the top of the screen - is this due to touchflo and can you force WM6.1 to always show the notification - I’m finding I’m forgetting about meetings because of this!
Thanks in advance of your help.

I've tried playing avi (divx) files with great success. I have been using CorePlayer (v1.2.5). Maybe you should try another video file? it should work
Interesting - are you using a special codec with that or just the player?

I now see your problem, I had originally tried only avi movies with mp3 audio (like most of my videos). I tested it with a file with AC3 audio and it appears that CorePlayer doesnt have that codec.
Guess your only option with movies with AC3 audio is to convert them, or you might be able to get an AC3 codec somewhere.
So is there a way of converting my video into avi + mp3 rather than AC3 as it sounds like that would sort my problem?

You could try the freeware video converter program 'SUPER'.
SUPER allows you to convert easily many aspects of a video including size, frame rate, format of video and audio, etc.
I use it all the time to convert my camera videos for use with my Hard Drive TV Media Player.
Don't try and download it from the developers web site it's a minefield in how to get the program.
Instead get it direct from Download.com here:-

I'm about to buy a Touch HD and was wondering if someone can confirm that it can playback video files (.avi) that can be found around the web (e.g. tv shows, movies and such) smoothly without conversion. (just transfer and play)?
yes please, can handle a typical rip of 350mb tv show or 700mb movie without problems?

It certainly can. I watched a whole divx movie i downloaded in full resolution (640 i think) without any conversion, and it was working great. havent tried a TV show yet but i guess it will work fine.

How did you manage that, mines plays the videos but they are jerky, seems like it's caching the film. I've even tried same file on iphone & hd, iphone was much smoother. what am i doing wrong??
Peter.
I've got to agree here with edwardscdr. I have no problem whatsoever in playing .avi files using Core Player 1.2.5
I believe the problem that others are having is down to what software and system associated files individuals have installed on their Phone. These could be effecting the performance of the playback.
It's a bit extreme but one sure way of finding out the problem is to hard reset the device and install ONLY Core Player (I personally did this when I first received my Touch HD).
Next transfer a video/movie file and play it........ Do you notice any improvements?
If so then at least you know it's down to what was previously installed.
To then eliminate the culprit that was causing the problem is to install software titles one-by-one and on each occasion check the playback of the video.
When it changes and no longer runs smoothly then BANG.... you have your culprit.

its the ac3, core player can't play it
i wish i can convert the audio via super...
sound can be changed, the audio codecs will show different results when using a different container, im just used to the .mp4 container so i didnt see an audio codec change to mp3
AC3 will play on the old TCPMP beta, the screen is buggy (missing buttons etc) but it does work. If you set up file extensions (in the options settings in both apps) to play on different media players you won't have any trouble (eg: AC3 plays on TCPMP, divx/xvid plays very well on Coreplayer).
The only videos i have trouble playing are in the H264 codec, but that's not a surprise as it is an advanced codec that can make some older desktops slow down.
As far as I am aware, the only media player that takes advantage of hardware acceleration is the built in media player with the HD. For optimum video playback you'd probably want to convert your video files with a third party app into mp4, BUT as an experienced heavy user of video files I find that a combo of Coreplayer, TCPMP and the built in player works just fine for nearly all occasions.
Hope this helps.
the videos are kinda bit pixelated also in tcpmp, the play buttons are center below but u cant see them until u click them ahha
Had anyone used the galaxy s media player yet?
Is fantastic compared to the media player that was on my hero, and also far better than anything that I have downloaded from the market too.
After 12 months,i finally have a fully functioning and customisable eq on my android device.
Very impressed with this phone in all aspects.
Is the dogs danglies!
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Agreed.... I thought my HD2 player was very good but this one is simply superb.
Plays all my files without a hitch
Hi,
Does the player allow you to see embedded images in podcasts?
can you skip chapters on podcasts?
Thanks.
does it play flac and vbr aac? Alac?
yes this is really a nice and great and fast media player and i love the EQ and sound quality (I keep it on wide =D and custom EQ)
is the organization of tracks as good on the HTCs???
on my i8000 Omnia II for instance, when u go the the "artist" tab, all the artist's songs are just packed there, instead of showing "Albums", which sucks imo...
Does it play unedited 720p and 1080p files. I know there is no point due to screen resolution but it will give an idea about the performance capability of the device.
Mine plays unedited 720p .avi files fine, doesn't seem to like 1080p, but then I've only tried over allshare. I might try copying one to the actual drive and see what happens. Mind you, to my mind, flawless 720p playback from my server upstairs on my phone in the garden is damn near magical anyway .
I seem to be less lucky with .mov, they won't play. Not sure where the files originally came from though, they were Iron Man 2 and, um, something else (Ice Age maybe) trailers in 800x480 mov format. Are we meant to be able to play .mov files on this thing?
umm can anyone rip the app and post it here ? or is that illegal ?
How does it handle Xvid/Divx and MKV scene releases?
What app do you recommend to transfer albums too it ? Where we could perhaps edit the tagged data too?
I've tried using WMP but its clunky and seems to either want to sync everything or have trouble syncing anything?
Ideally I would just like to view whats on the device and edit the alum name, album art etc.
I've seen this http://www.doubletwist.com/dt/Home/Index.dt & http://www.getsongbird.com/ but never used them before. I loved sharepod for apple devices - I'd like the equivalent

DoubleTwist doesn't import FLAC, so I can't call it ideal for an audio junky, that's its biggest flaw as a music transfer (I'm not in love with the software, but it's not bad).
Does the Galaxy S media player come on carrier branded phones? I didn't anything obvious on my captivate.
It plays almost all the formats I own.
Both 720p avi as well as 720p mkv work splendidly. But a huge problem if your into Anime releases. It has a problem with displaying the subs from the mkv files.
avi releases work (the subs are after all embedded in the video)...

+2 on the player
its an exceptional player
eq better than anything on any device anywhere
the auto eq (i think it reads idtags of files for genre and applies corresponding eq preset) is amazing. I wish i can edit presets tho for the auto eq.
the 5.1 SRS made the already exceptional soundstage of my triplefi even more amazing.
my niggles would be slight in that it doesnt support press twice to next track and press thrice to go back from the inline mic button.
Btw, anybody went and check the service for the mediaplayer
i saw coreplayer service active, but i have no knowledge of coreplayer being ported to android. AFAIK, coreplayer is still purely a winmo app, and a very good one at that, maybe the best in winmo.
But if the one on the SGS is really coreplayer, then it should be good

Extract the ass/ssa file from the video (videohelp.com or use just use mkvtoolnix), save it with the same title as the video file, upload both on the phone (SD or Internal memory). Download mVideoPlayer from the market and play the file. I tried it myself yesterday. It works I tried seitokai yakuindomo from [Ayako] at 720p.
Enjoy
Dunno if I'm as big of a fan of the media player...
When I try to open a .wmv I get either 'File type wmv not found' (in Astro file manager) or when it does try to open (when opening it in root explorer) a 'Not supported file type' message... This for multiple different wmv's (they play fine in rockplayer btw).
Also the same for an .mp4 file. A 'This video can not be played' message...
Anyone else with the same issues? Rockplayer plays all my files perfectly but if the built in app could do the same that would be great...

Hi guys,
I'm having some problems trying to play the website iphone anime. It streams just fine on the iphone and the encoding is mp4, so that should be ok. I can only download the files and then play it, I cannot stream it. I've been trying to change the default player but I can't seem top do so. Any our ideas?
Just tried with Meridian and get the error message about "streaming to this device", might be a 1.6 issue.
can somebody test this in 2.1

If you have trouble streaming .mp4 files it may be becasue you have uninstalled mediascape. I found that i couldnt stream .mp4 any more after i uninstalled mediascape & MediaPluginManager.apk, one quick reinstallation using adb later and its all working again.
i never touched mediascape so it isnt that. Try websites like this... http://iphoneanime.net, http://mediamp4.com ,http://iphonehentai.com/ and play any of those listed movies. They are all in mp4 format (great sites by the way for movie buffs who love to watch streaming videos)
I never was able to get them working while i was on 1.6 and after 2.1 the default player still says unable to load file. I then tried Vplayer (awesome, get it from the market) and now i am able to stream 50% of the movies on these websites. I think it has to do with the native streaming support of the base player. it just isnt any good......
I have been experiencing persistent difficulties playing high definition 1080p MKV rips on my HTC One, since day one. The video playback frame-rate always drops and the lag was apparent. My HTC One is rooted, so i was able to install FPS Meter to test the frame-rate during playback and it would always oscillate rapidly between 10 and 30. I always used MX Player Pro for video playback on Android, so i stuck to the latter and in order to enable DTS audio support, there's the settings option in-app to download the required custom codec (it's the ARMv7 NEON for the HTC One), which coincidentally opens up a link on XDA where a developer has been compiling the DTS audio codec. Here's the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2156254. You can download and extract the libffmpeg.mx.so to any folder on your phone. Then, in the MX Player Pro settings, point it to the location of the libffmpeg.mx.so file. But in my case, even after all that, the lag wasn't solved. I thought that maybe the Snapdragon 600 SoC wasn't powerful enough to handle these bulky (around 10 GB) 1080p MKV files. That is, until i came across the following FREE media players which solved the lag completely!
DicePlayer
1. Download and Install the FREE DicePlayer app from the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.inisoft.mediaplayer.a
Try to play your video file. For me, the DTS audio was supported right out of the box. Maybe it was due to the custom DTS audio file that i had already installed previously for the MX Player Pro? In any case, you should first try to play your video file to see if it's fully supported.
But if you get no audio, follow these steps:
2. Download the DTS Audio Codec to your PC: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/7909146/DicePlayer-DTS-AudioCodec-libffmpeg.zip
3. Extract the downloaded zip file.
4. Transfer the extracted libffmpeg.so file to the root of the internal SD card on your Android device. DO NOT transfer it to a folder or sub-folder. Make sure to place it in the directory of your phone's internal storage.
5. Launch Dice Player on your Android device and open the Settings Menu
6. Scroll down to Custom Plugin and check the box
7. Go back to the main menu.
8. Select your video file. You should now be able to play DTS audio on your HTC One!
Archos Video Player
1. Download and Install the FREE Archos Video Player app from the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.archos.mediacenter.video
2. Download the Archos Video All Codecs Plugin to make sure that you have all the required video and audio codecs: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.m4rk3t.libcopy2
3. From the main menu, select "All Videos" and then choose the video file that you want to play.
(Credits to @spawndk for suggesting the Archos Video Player and its codecs pack)
VLC for Android
1. Download and Install the FREE VLC for Android app from the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.videolan.vlc.betav7neon
2. From the main menu, just select the video you want to play.
3. Enjoy!
Note: The video file tested has been copied onto the phone's internal memory via USB, so if you stream the video file from your PC or online, the result might differ. If your video contains embedded subtitles, the video playback might lag in VLC and the image itself might appear corrupt (that would also depend on your video file). Since the VLC for Android player is currently in beta, some bugs still need to be ironed out. However, in DicePlayer and Archos Video Player, the subtitles play without any issue. Conclusion: use DicePlayer or Archos Video Player if you need subtitles. I tested the smoothness of the playback with power save mode on and off - it made no difference, so you can leave power saver mode on (when enabled, the power save option lowers your Snapdragon 600 CPU frequency which could cause lagging and stuttering if there is a high-enough CPU load).
Since there are many different types of codecs and bit rates used in 1080p MKV files, here is the exact video file that i've used for this guide (just in case anyone wants to replicate the steps in this guide to verify if they get identical results with the exact same video file):
Pacific.Rim.2013.1080p.BluRay.DTS.x264-PublicHD.mkv
Runtime ............: 2:11:17
Size ...............: 13.8 GB
Video ..............: 1920x1080
Bitrate ............: 13300 kbps (H264 [email protected] CBR)
Audio 1.............: English DTS 5.1 Ch 1510 kbps
Audio 2.............: English OGG 2.0 Ch 64 kbps -Commentary By Director Guillermo Del Toro
Chapters............: Yes
Source .............: 1080p Blu-ray AVC DTS-HD MA 7.1-PublicHD
Subs ...............: English French Spanish Portuguese
Using MX Player Pro, that same video file would lag all the time. No amount of tweaking in the settings would fix it.
Disclaimer: I own that movie on original Bluray disc, but instead of re-encoding it myself (my PC is too slow and i'm far from being an encoding wizard to know the best settings for optimal compression while preserving image quality) to play on my mobile devices, i got it from torrents. I am in no way promoting piracy. If you like a movie, definitely buy it.
I also tried playing the same thing with mx player .. it played video but no idea .. then added dts codec from xda and now no hiccups at all
Dts is patented and the company that has the patent doesn't want to license it to any Android player, last year most players played Dts out of the box until they got trouble from the patentholder.
Software patents suck but to ban reverse engineered playback
Good post Electronical
Still, Id like to suggest to try my favourite player Archos Video
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.archos.mediacenter.video
And the free codecs that give support for AC3 and DTS audio
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.m4rk3t.libcopy2
Plays all my mkv's 100% smooth not only on my HTC One but also on other devices I own.
And it grabs movie info, coverart, auto download subtitles etc. etc.

I tested that app and its codecs pack with the same full hd movie and there was no lag. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll add it to the main post. :victory:
I have found that es file explorer plays 1080p mkv better than anything else.
1080p mkv files play fine for me on mx player. at first audio did not work but that was fixed by using hw+ decoder or even sw decoder (battery hog).

HD mkv on HTC One
Hi, would just like to ask all poster above the following:
When playing this large HD mkv / 1080hp file where are you actually playing it from?
1. Are you streaming from PC to phone?
2. Is it stored on the phone itself?
3. Are you streaming it from the internet?
I ask this because I have been pulling my hair out over the last 3 days trying to get a 1080hp HD mkv rip of several different movies (between 3 and 5 gigabytes in size) to play successfully on my HTC One (M7). Movies are being streamed from a Synology NAS DS213j
NAS is connected to a VirginMedia SuperHub router.
This problem only happens when I try to stream over the internet via 3g to the HTC One.
Streaming over Wi-Fi over my LAN works perfect - can stream from NAS to Windows Laptop, my HTC One, the wifes iPhone, the kids P.C running XP four different movies at once or the same movie to all devices.
Tried bucket loads of different Video player for the HTC but nothing will play these movies stored on my NAS without buffer, lag, stuttering, choppyness whatever you want to call it.
I have done lots of research over the last few days and I am not sure whether it has something to do with Transcoding the movie on the NAS before being sent over 3g internet - really would like some clarification on this from an expert please!
According to a speed test, I am averaging 2mbps upload speeds on the virgin router - would an HD movie require more than this?
Thanks.

I updated the post to add that the video file tested in this case is copied onto the phone's internal memory via USB. I haven't tested any of these video apps relative to streaming from PC or online but the limitation is not set on the HTC One in this case. It's most likely a bandwidth throttling or low performance decoding issue.
Thank You so much!
I am so glad to have found this. I actually used new MX Player Pro and downloaded their custom Codec directly from them and configured.
I have DTS and am streaming over my network on 2.4ghz on Shield Tablet (5ghz is an issue). Beautiful and stutter free.
I use ES File Explorer to browse my SMB shares and it launches MXPlayer to play the files. Everything is instant! I tried Dice Player because I own it from my first Transformer Tablet. It is painfully slow browsing SMB shares and crashes on file launch if using ES File Explorer. A shame really, back in the day it was great app.
I actually switched to a Win 8 Tablet just because I wanted to be able to watch ANY file on my shares on the tablet. Well that Win 8 tablet is now getting given to my daughter (who keeps "borrowing" it anyway) and I am getting a Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2 to replace it.
Thanks again XDA-developers!!
Somtimes you may meet some problems, some MKV files playback without sound, while some MKV files even can not be recognized even with popular Android MKV players like BSPlayer FREE, Dice Player and MX Video Player.
The real reason behind that is MKV can be encoded by different codecs, some of those codecs are not compatible with your Android tablet or phone, so you are unable to play MKV videos on Android successfully. To get those MKV files to play nicely on your Android phone or tablet, the easy option is to convert MKV to Android commonly supported file format (H.264 encoded MP4 is highly recommended).
