Hello everyone.
So errr... Before I fall in love with " Xoom " , I had a Galaxy Tab. My Galaxy Tab can play every Flv files ( at least most of my flv file ).
When I bought this, the 1st thing I was like : GOD DAM**** MOTH***** because It couldn't play flv files.
So, any Solution ?
Thanks in advance.
P/S : Yeah...well my english is kinda bad so if you don't understand, I'm truly sorry.
download mobo player, the stock video player is useless.
+1 for mobo
+2 for moboplayer. Also, Plex is great if you're willing to stream it. The app is $5, but the interface and functionality are terrific in honeycomb.
+3 for moboplayer, plays flv files with no problem.

i remember just dragging n dropping avi movies on my Blackberry bold ..i can just play the movie and enjoy it.
but on X1..the Windows media player says 'cannot play the file'
why?
isnt it supposed to be more friendly with such formats?
NO..i am not willing to pay for a software just to play a world famous .avi format.
avi
simple answer is NO you can not play avi's out of box. you have a couple options....either re-encode the video to another format or dl a different player. I like coreplayer and i know alot of other people like it as well. some people just get the divx player but you have to know what was used to encode the video as avi is only the container file and not the encoder.
most of my videos are DivX encoded...
so is it possible to install DivX codec on X1 and then play those files?
really sad but..i thot i can just drag n drop the movies on my mSD and watch
yeah using coreplayer or TCPMP
not sure if the codecs works with windows mobile media player though
but those 2 players does the job
Okay thanks a lot for the quick response guys.
i got hold of Coreplayer....just wanted to try.
it works..i just dragged n dropped some TV shows and movies ..and they work fine
i have yet to see such an awesome clarity on a mobile phone.
this is even better than bold because i can see the movies in widescreen and the contrast is superb
I know that the tab is divx certified but, i would like to know if it is possible to play divx in the browser? On sites like stagevu, loombo and vidxden.
Thanks in advance.

That all said, my Tab is loving XviD dvd rips
I mainly want the Tab for Xvid DVD rips. Do you know if the Tab plays avi's that our encoded with an AC3 soundtrack rather than MP3. a lot of dvd rips have Ac3 rather than MP3 and I heard that the galaxy cannot support multichannel soundtracks.
It has played all files I have tried until now. avis' in a lot of formats, divx. h.264 all new series. It even does mkv files in 720p with no problems or lag at all
ac3 is supported. But the stock player has decoding problems. Try vPlayer alpha - its the best atm.
so with vplayer alpha does it play 720p mkv files with AC3 (a52 codec) soundtrack, dont want to convert everything to AAC 2 channel or MP3.
Any word on firmware upgrades to fix stock video player???
None yet... but youre right, the stock player is very good otherwise! I love the browser and media library. And of course the ar control.
so can someone confirm does it play perfectly with another video player instead of the stock one.
As I said really interested in playback of 720p mkv with AC3 (5.1 sound)
Gonna try it when they are for sale next week, take my sd card and see if it works
Yep works fine in vplayer. But remember, no files larger than 4gb on internal storage.
Also, the 1080p playback advertised for the galaxy tab refers to divx and xvid I believe, so high profile move are square in third party player laps. Lets hope they make fixes too!
Anyone struck this hurdle yet ?
Got my tab all set up yesterday... charged it over night, played with it today... thought, right... about to go to bed, might load up a few videos to watch...
Well... I think i was expecting to much for it to play anything out of the box when i went looking for the video player app and there isnt one. You can open files in Gallery... but there is another issue... divx/xvid files with avi extensions do not even show up as being on the device. MKV files do. And they play... all be it with no sound. This started me on a quest... over to the Xoom forums to have a look at those guys... download all of their suggestions... Ok, got the divx sorted. every video player i downloaded would play divx/xvid files with ease. no surprise there... still no files showing up in gallery...
The closest i got to playing a 720p mkv file was with rockplayer... but i ran into the similar issues with rockplayer. when i used it to play the mkv files, if i used hardware decoding, crystal clear picture... no sound. If i used software decoding, sound works... but now the picture it all chopped up and way out of sync...
For the moment it looks like it's back to encoding the mkv files back to xvid... As for this device being able to play 1080p video... i wont hold my breath. From what i have seen of how it plays 720p, it may come in the next update, but for now it even appears to be struggling to play 720p let alone 1080p...
Any ideas, tips or trick you have found that works for playing different video types???
I'm using MoboPlayer which downloads the needed codecs from the Android Market. Tried both divx and xvid, works great.
Also using rockplayer. Will try mobo.
Sent from my GT-P7100 using XDA App
I've also tried QQPlayer which isn't bad and Vital Player, which so far seems to be the smoothest player I've used so far.
I haven't tried mobo yet though.
mobo rulles
no suggestions on MKV yet ??

MoboPlayer is supposed to support the mkv container format (haven't tried myself).
Quote from MoboPlayer official site:
"The current Mobo version will not support mkv, mov container format which have built-in subtitle streams, but we will complete this feature as soon as possible."
So, it supports MKV as long as it doesn't contain built-in subtitles. I will try it later tonight and report the results.
mVideoPlayer: mkv + subtitle
Mobo player plays .mkv incl. streams. That is ofc on a Galaxy S phone. On a tegra 2, device as far as I have read, there isn't much luck plying .mkv files as the soc doesn't support them. Go figure.
Hello!
I would like to question one thing... can we play 720p videos?? and 1080p?
I'm sorry for the newbie question.. but i have already tests on my tab ( i have shared the video on my network).. and it did not work, it gets lag a lot
I have light speed 2.0 custom room whit honeyvillain kernel.
Sorry for my bad English
Depends on the player and if you're willing to pay for it....
I use rockplayer and it works well with most stuff, diceplayer also as a backup and mxplayer too. Don't use the stock player very much...
If you're playing HD stuff then go here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1184002
This will give you encode advice, instructions and help you out...
Cheers...
BS Player is great for playing videos. The best free one. 720p should be no problem.
1080p videos are highly reliant on how they are encoded. You will probably not be able to play the 1080p videos you already have on your PC.
I tried tons of free players (wasn't willing to try all the pay players for obvious reasons) seems Diceplayer & BSPlayer to be the best, with my nod (for what it's worth) going to BSPlayer. Will play HD content , subtitles (internal & external) & allows selection of multiple audio tracks. (Will even download the subtitles for you!!!) A very sweet player
Hi I wan to know that nexus 7 can play Hi10p file or not ?
cause I have a problem with tegra 2 that can`t play Hi10p.
thx
I have a BSPlayer paid version on my N7, I see there is an option for Hi10p file in setting. So I am not sure it can play or not, cause I don't have that kind of file to test. But for x264 [email protected] video, my N7 can play fine using BSPlayer.
I can test it for you if you provide a short clip for me to download.
Please go to 4shared and search hi10p
http://search.4shared.com/q/CCAD/1/hi10p
and try to download some file
thx
Um, I said short clip... but anyways, I did some googling and found this post, which says that the Tegra 3 doesn't support hardware acceleration for Hi10p, which isn't surprising since I don't think that any mobile chipsets support Hi10p yet. I did download one of the videos and I tried using both Dice Player and Mobo Player. Dice Player's video lagged behind the audio, and Mobo Player did a good job of keeping audio and video in sync but the video had artifacting and dropped lots of frames.
