Hi,
Before I move to Windows Phone 7 on my HD2, I would like to know if it supports playing of AVI series and movies?? I currently use Core Player to watch AVI files on Win Phone 6.5.
Really looking forward to a reply on this !!
I did try but did not succed.

thanks. is there anyone else that has tried and succeeded to play avi files on WP7?
This is one of the reasons not to switch to WP7. The other one is lack of a decent navigation program.
So then are there any programs in the WP7 app store that can play AVI's ???

i dont think so. Zune can transcode it. Zune convert it when you sync. But you cant open avi files.
In the wm6.5 you can play avi files in HD2 ??? I think cant. So convert him to mp4.

Transfered a few avi files and the sound is well out of sync tried playing on in built player and real player. Spec does say avi files can be played hence why I've not changed the format. Any ideas?

Download Rockplayer and try that.
yxPlayer should be ok. Didn`t try it yet but heard it is one of the best.

YXPlayer isn't worth the time or effort...... Rockplayer all the way! Imagine TCMP from the WinMo days albeit without the functionality. Plays practically every format you will ever need it to at good framerates.
Regards.
Rock player on software decoder perfect just shame you have to buy it to get rid of nags will test it out before I fork our $9. 99

thats a big licensing issue,
GOOGLE could add those codec into their Rom and it is not difficult for them

Yes, it is difficult for them. As A Linux user, I can attest to this; proprietary/patented codecs cause licensing issues, pure and simple. Therefore, they can not be included in Vanilla (Open-Source) Android. And given that the point of the Nexus line is that they run Vanilla Android, you see the issue.
You can help solve this problem by converting your videos to open formats like Ogg Theora and/or WebM. That way, you can play your videos, and you help reduce the trend of technology being hampered by proprietary licensing. </rant>

I just dragged and dropped a 4GB mp4 movie and watched it on the phone with no issue. Are you sure you video isn't using some other form of compression?
remember .mp4 is just a container
So let me get this right ... there is no way to play divx / avi files even using 3rd party software?!
They are currently working on making rockplayer work on the Nexus S.

I'm right now watching an episode of Mad Men that I ripped from my DVD using Handbrake on Ubuntu. It's an .mp4 container, and if I recall correctly I used H.264...
.mp4 will play just fine, it can be a baunch of different ways though because thats just the container, best program I have found period is Any Video Converter Pro. Just select Mobile devices/ Google Phones/ Nexus One. Perfect fit to screen and great quality. All it needs to be to run great is .h264, AAC audio, 800 x 480, about 1200 bitrate for video and 160kbps for audio and it will look and sound stunning. Most video players except mVideo Player are broken in someway on the Nexus S.
Rocklplayer has been updated on the website but not yet in the market. It now plays an AVI file on my Nexus S.

How do I upload movies to my phone from my pc. I transfered movies to my phone but it only plays for 3secs then stop. What am I doing wrong?

You may have to convert it first. I made a folder called Movies on my SD card and use Xilsoft (software program) to convert them. Once done i just put it in the folder. Works great!

If you get Rockplayer (android market) it will play nearly any format movie (mp4, avi, 3gp etc) without the need to convert. If you wish to use the default player mp4 is your best bet.
Arc media is one I use. I'll have to try the other ones

Hello. There is a problem in my video player. The sdcard has two videos by default, tutorial.mp4 and xperia.mp4. The videos can be played before the upgrade (android 1.6). One of the videos (xperia.mp4) cannot be played anymore after updating to eclair. Video codec changed or something? Thanks!

I cannot post outside links. Maybe because I'm new here.
I'll just send you a message for the link.
It worked fine with me.
Eclair version too?
Do you guys really need those videos? Cuz i don"t see anything usefull one them.. xD
Anyway, just try to convert to mp4, using the video converting option on atube catcher or any other app to convert videos.. that should work

Yeah its not that useful. Just wondering why the video is not playing anymore. It is working prior to eclair, some codec might have changed to render it non playable. And if you have some video with the same codec properties, it will not work too.

Both.
You can also download QQPlayer from Market,and it'll work.
Quality of videos is soo Gud than other ROM player
I also have Xperia X8 it plays all types of MP4 files without any problem. But Quality of videos in offical player in Eclair 2.2 ROM is too Gud than any another ROMS. It plays only in Landscape mode its also a gud feature.
oK is it just me or we all have the same problem, downloaded HD videos from youtube and it wont play. Anyone??
??? anyone?
Try a different video player. If that doesnt work then there may bot be the correct codec available

Try Mobo Player. Also, Atrix hasn't had 1080p update from Moto, so if your videos are 1080p they likely won't play if I am thinking correctly.

I believe your attempting to play baseline or highline x264. Unfortunately our nvidea chip will not run that. But, I'm not sure if it is a problem that can be fixed through software. Anyone?

i have done some research on this matter, yes the tegra chip won't play any high profile x264 HD movie (either 720p or 1080p). you have to convert it to main profile x264 and it will play fine.
u can try "handbrake" to convert it and our beloved Atrix will play. you can make a google search to see the tutorial for converting using "handbrake"

Yeah man, very desappointing news... Althought I still have hope that we will be able to do that. After all, we have "Atrix - The world's most powerful phone"
Try using arc media player, out is available on that market for free. Let me know if out works for you

I have not come across a video, hd or otherwise, that I could not play on my Atrix. If one player doesn't work, I go to another one.
The best player for atrix is moboplayer with codec pack.
I can play most of my movies without problems in HD but I have great news for HD mkv viewer.
Power DVD are developing a application which can play HD mkv movies and more.
I read it on androidpit.de

So I tried mob with all it's codecs avail on the market, also tried arc both of them are lagging as if im playing HD video on some low end cheap phone. Man o man what a disappoinent e'h. So much hype for the qhd but really its crap.
Try it for ur self I downloaded and tried to play transforms 3 trailer and metallicas nothing else matters hd. And they both played like crap. Dunno about you fellas but I never expected these results from my attic they are calling this the most powerful phone.
