Have you tried moboplayer from the marketplace, I've found that whatever media file I throw at it it plays fine.

mp4 video playback
I use Rockplayer, it seems to play everything I have tried.
Try MoboPlayer and don´t forget to download the Codecs too.
This should be enough to play it.
I use Vplayer for all formats

I thought that the Vega could only play 720 vids?

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.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
hi,
Download this tool:
http://fixounet.free.fr/avidemux/
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
Regards!
I've tried:
.mpg
.avi
.wmv
none work, using the stock movie player, rockplayer AND vplayer or whatever it is.
Using software and hardware codec.
Do I need some kind of codec to play videos? This is ANNOYING
Anyone have a small video they know works I can troubleshoot with?
If it helps, I converted my wmv files into mp4 format and it works.
^ or try using moboplayer
With Rockplayer, When you load it up, instead of picking an option just wait a few seconds and see it plays. If you don't select it autoselects a codec. Seems to work ok over here.
+1 on MoboPlayer
mobo worked, thanks guys
i have played avi with rockplayer
hi, just wanted to share my experience on finding a worjing solution for my movie playing needs:
- my phone is a galaxy S and i expected tegra2 to outperform it in every way, movie-wise, that's not the case.
- normally i use mvideoplayer but since it relies 100% on native decoding, it wont open most of my files, avi, mkv, etc
- i installed vplayer, rockplayer (normal and optimized), qqplayer, moboplayer, besides the bundled nemoplayer and none was able to correctly decode a 720p mkv (1.5gb game of thrones episode). a couple were able to play it with sound, but they all lagged too much.
- for SD XviD rockplayer worked fine but it doesnt support subtitles, qqplayer displayed subtitles but it dropped frames. moboplayer + armv7vfp3 codec decoded the avi correctly and with subtitles.
- 720p youtube "rips" from tubemate worked fine on mvideoplayer, they use mp4 container and most likely base or main profile.
so... for tv shows from torrent, use avi and moboplayer. for hd content, hopefully they'll be 720p and main profile.
anyone knows what kind of file are the "BRRip" flying around on the net?
cheers.

I had an identical problem: I was also dismayed at not being able to watch a Game of Thrones MKV file!
I gave up on MKV and tried watching a 720p AVI (BRrip in Xvid/AC3) on moboplayer, and it worked flawlessly--even got the subtitles file to work. It's a huge pain in the ass, but converting to xvid/AVI might be the best bet. I'm going to do it remotely on my home PC while I'm at work
yeah, MKV files not working properly or at all is a bit of a bugger, but now i've been converting them into high def (720p) mp4's using some custom settings for Handbrake that i found either here or another forum (can't remember which, lol), works a treat and looks great on the A500!
i looked around for 720p avi files, i didnt think they would look so good.
i still saw some dropped frames but that could have been because i was using CIFS to acces the 2tb hdd on my htpc.
but i still wonder the mp4 BRRips, there's something weird with those filesm even the galaxy S refused to play some of them...
anyway, in short, if available prefer 720p avi...

How did you get the subtitles to work? Did you use .sub or .srt subtitles? And witch program to convert?
I have found that if you use rockplayer in hardware mode and your videos are x/h264 video and AAC audio the results are very acceptable playback
@Ramius71: no conversion, just an SD .avi file with .srt subtitles
the .avi was a 174mb tv episode and the .srt downloaded from opensubtitles
@Yatyas: could you give an example please? .mkv or .mp4? i have several .mp4 that play well but most are ripped from youtube or things like that...
downloaded HD movies and TV episodes don't work for me, even in rockplayer...
has anyone tried VLC on the Iconia yet?

I have found that as long as it is encoded with x.264 or h.264 on the video and AAC on the audio regardless of the wrapper .mkv or .mp4 I get very good performance from the hardware decoding when using Rockplayer.
I have found many .mp4 and x264 files that have AC3 for the audio and I re-encode using handbrake changing just the audio to AAC and everything seems to work well
Hi,
I just got a new TF101G, and I would like to transcode some of my TV records for the Transformer.
So I just went along using Handbrake and created a MP4 file out of my TS recording.
The re-coded movie has a resolution of 720x572 (that's the original size, I didn't changed anything in Handbrake). But when I play that using the stock app, the aspect-ratio during playback seems to be odd. I basically followed the settings on http://www.transformerforums.com/fo...onvert-video-transformer-using-handbrake.html.
What am I missing here? Is there any "trick" to re-code movies for the Transformer?
Try Mx Video Player on the market. Works for just about everything. I would post a link but I can't yet.
OK; I will try that - but shouldn't the video also work fine with the stock player?
I use the stock player for movies that I have made into mp4's using handbrake. They're not HD so I have not changed any setting in handbrake either. They have all played fine so far.
I have also used dice player to play a video that was downloaded and mx or stock would not play it and dice player did, so who knows with this stuff
What resolution are your movies that you re-coded to mp4 using handbrake?
I was having quite a few problems playing HD mkv files, tried multiple players. The only player I found that played them well was BS player. Thought I would spread the word, I was rather annoyed that i was going to have to transcode a bunch of movies to play on this tablet but then i tried BS player and was incredibly surprised. Not sure if the pro version is worth the money, im hoping VLC will eventually be able to handle it.
EDIT: With software decoding MX player was able to play them as well. I tried DICE player as well and it also seems to work. For awhile I was having issues with those other 2 players but they seem to work fine now. It still depends a lot on other encoding settings but all these players seem to work fine with 720p mkv.
Vplayer is good also...
all these players can't play videos properly ......I would recommend u to convert video into mp4 or avi using formatfactory for PC .....once converted copy to ur tab and play using mx player or v player or stock ...........the resolution and bitrate adjustments make videos look lot smoother and plays without any hookups ......
HIT THANKS IF I HAVE HELPED
I have no problem with stock player and 720p mkv files as long as you don't use High Profile H.264 encoding. The file size will be a little bigger (than High Profile encodings) but that's about it.
