I found most shows come with .ass subtitles and Android video players primarily support .srt. You can use mkvmerge to convert .ass to .srt easily enough. Worked for me in Meridian but converting to .srt removes all formatting and whatnot so things can get pretty dicey.
I have HTC Desire HD and not play the video files.
Please help.
Hi,
What format are these video files? Encoding, resolution, etc...
Have you tried re-encoding them with Handbrake?
The default player will play .avi video files which are mp3 encoded.

hi,
Download this tool:

It is imo the best video converter available, and its free.
Simply select from the side 'MPEG4 ASP (Xvid)' for video, and AAC for audio. And for format select MP4. The reason why these are the best settings for the Desire HD is that these codecs are supported at the hardware level.
Ok after you're done selecting the formats, the important thing is when you click save, you must write .mp4 at the end of the filename. Without this then the file will have no extension.
You should get the app Rockplayer from the market to play your vids. Its great because it has a hardware playback mode and will play any file you converted, VERY smoothly as long as you chose the settings i described above. I was stunned when i watched a trailer from Gran Tursimo 5 that i converted.
Anyway hope this helps.
Format is 480p BRRip Xvid AC3-FLAWL3SS.avi.
Before I have the Galaxy S and watched moves with mVideo Player, so as I got my HTC installed the same player, but it could not run a movies. I started to install different app palayers and managed to let them in VPlayer beta.
Hi,
I use RockPlayer, you can play Divx, Avi, Mp4... no need change the format I have a full version from 1.5.1 Mod edit: warez url removed from my Megaupload Account

I have problem to find app which support movie play via HDMI output with subtitle.
On my device I see movie playing with subtitle (.srt) but on TV I see only movie but withouth subtitle.
Does anybody have any proposal how to fix that or which app do show subtitle on output HDMI. To include subtitle into movie as is not optional becouse I can't convert movie every time I want to look TV via phone MHL.
For movies I think format like .avi, .mkv, mp4 etc...
thanks for proposals...

The standard video player support subtitles!
I have tried both standard and mobo player, both show subtitle on the TV using MHL!
redzion: Does the sub and video file got exactly the same name? And is the sub file an .srt file? If not, try converting the sub file to .srt
ok. problem was in filename.. strange that subs did work on device but not on tv, now when subs have same name work on boths sides..
thank you...

You're welcom, glad it worked!
What i have found about stock player is you can't have more than one subtitle file for example:
nameofthevideofile.ENG.srt
nameofthevideofile.SPA.srt
I know mVideoPlayer can load different srt files but i'm not sure it can display the subtitles over MHL. I'm going to try it and post results.
Ok my little experiment with subtitles and MHL:
Stock player shows subtitles both phone and MHL
mVideoPlayer only shows subtitles on the phone screen
MoboPlayer only shows subtitles on the phone screen
RockPlayer shows subtitles both phone and MHL only in software decoding mode. In hardware decoding software subtitles are shown only on the phone screen
DicePlayer only shows subtitles on the phone screen
Those are the tests so far. Only mVideoPlayer allows me to choose the srt file (several languages for example).
Had the same problem and answer bellow helped me to see the subtitles on TV screen. The only limitation I currently see is that the internal player control the size of font on the phone screen but not change it externally. In addition, the subtitles position in both screens are slightly different, which point on different processing for internal and external view.
In addition I had a problem that the Hebrew subtitles does not shown but I saw question marks.
After some investigation and tests I found that the internal player on my Galaxy 2 accept only unicode srt files, designed for RTL read. Since most of the subtitles in Hebrew are historically published as ANSI and LTR read (since the DVD appliance days that were limited to this format. Currently most software and streamers read all formats) I had to convert it twice:
1) Open the ANSI file in Subtitles Workshop and fix punctuation (Subtitles Workshop works only with ANSI files).
2) Convert the file to Unicode (using Notepad "save as" command and choosing Unicode or UTF-8 format).
BTW, usually I use mVideoPlayer. It requires RTL file so I had to do the first step any way before transferring the movie to the phone, but then it doesn't support the Unicode file that I saved. After more test I found that it plays UTF-8 files. Since the internal player is luckily support both Unicode and UTF-8 formats, I can keep only one file in UTF-8 format and RTL direction of punctuation.
The only problem is that Subtitles Workshop doesn't support not Unicode neither UTF-8, so if the srt file is originally in these format, I can't fix the punctuation direction (I didn't find another tool) unless I lose the special characters like notes you can find mainly in musical.
Hope this helps for other users, specially for RTL language users (Hebrew/Arabic).

You just made my day.. looking for this answer for 1 week
Thanks
I use MoboPlayer and BsPlayer and both reproduce video with subtitle on TV via MHL, only you has to play the video with Soft Decoding.
Hdmi with subs
I dont know if i help you but i made it to see movie from samsung galaxy s2 to tv with subs.I open e.m. total video converter,put movie with subs for permanent use and i play with mvideoplayer on my tv and the subs play perfect.I am from Greece and my subs play ok.Sorry for my English.
I am unable to play any MP4 videos on the Thrive at all . I have tried the MX player with the codec that it has you download along with the built-in player and they all just hang, any suggestions?
Try pressing and holding on the video to bring up the pop up menu and select software decoding (I think that is what it is) and then playing the video. You can also try Mobo Player.
I used HandBrake for video conversion to watch on my Droid Incredible. I just copied those over to my Thrive and they work great with the native Toshiba player.
