Hi, I've got some Mp4 video's i've been playing back quite happily on Custom ROM R8 and have today put Vegacomb 1.7 on and these files do not playback. The only way i can get them to play back was to load Moboplayer and use software decode.
Anyone got any ideas or is this a bug in Vegacomb? Tried to post it in the Vegacomb forum but couldn't.
Cheers.
On custom R8 you played them with default media player?
Did you download Moboplayer codecs?
Hi, yeah sorry, on R8 I used the default player. On Beta 1.7 the default player just gives "Fail to load" message.
Even in Moboplayer just selecting the movie gives the message "this file cannot be played by the system player, please long press it, and select soft decoding mode to play it"
As far as codecs go not sure which on i need for the Vega? can anyone advise?
Thanks
I use Vplayer with 2.2 and 2.3. maybe he will run with 3.0

So I ended up going back to MoDaCo R8 and all is well. All movies play with no need for an additional player. I did however load Moboplayer and it plays all files using hardware decode (which did not work on Vegacomb.
Thanks for the replies.
I have the same problem. I don't like to go back, I like the VegaComb. Isn't there anone who can tell how to solve this problem?

Seems like forever but the 1.2 err wait no the 1.2 "preview alpha tech release whatever" has been released. I tried to play a recompressed divx mythbusters from my SageTV but it just plays a frame every few seconds.. I messed with all the settings and sometimes CorePlayer would just close. Using some of the reports here I was able to play the test dog file, but never my divx. Anyone have any recommended settings?
Edit: Just for kicks I tried both files in TCMP that comes with the 3.0 rom and it plays them fine. So I suppose this issue is useless since TCMP works fine.
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......
hi, i think that core player is the best player i had tryed on my HD, BUT when i try to play somne .divx or .avi video, it doesn't play sound, 'cause AC3 is not supported in this version. i tryed to look for AC3 codecs or newest version, but notsuccesfully.. i've tryed another players(pocket divx, divxmobile,...) but they failed- getting frozen or lagging.can you give me some tips for another player that doesn't have that problem with sound, or something else what would help?thx
What build is it? Mine is 1.3.6 and plays everything out of the box, perhaps you should check settings. As for other players, don't bother searching - tried them all, Core beats each one of them.
version 1.3.0, buid 6213
H/W video decoding is now properly working for mkv (H264 content) on MX player. You can choose to decode audio in software.
I've tested that on Stock 3.1 HC on the Iconia A500.
For some strange reason i can't get it work on Taboonay (2.0), HoneyVillain (1.1 and 1.2) or Lightspeed. Maybe it's because of the kernel ? No clue tbh.
To be able to do the same go to groups.google.com/group/mx-videoplayer?pli=1 (or directly to groups.google.com/group/mx-videoplayer/browse_thread/thread/5ef1796ab98af826) and download MX Player 1.3b3.
You should been able to do H/W for video and S/W for audio.
Edit: can't post external link
same here. Not able to use h/w no I idea what to do with this. And mkv videos are so crap..
EDIT: omg sry! I don't know why i put "not" in there. xD
Read my post again, I'm saying it's working.
Thanks soooo much for the find!
It WORKS like charm [I'm with Stock Rom 3.1 ]. Love it!
I hope this version will be available as PRO too as i hate the AD's
here's the link that MastahFR posted:

Now we have to find why it's not working with Custom ROMs.
it works on Taboonay 2.1
Just installed on Taboonay 2.1, and it works without any problem. I tried a mkv file with video hw decoding and audio sw decoding.
cool. gotta try this. hopefully will works on my taboonay 2.1

Both thor ver.3.5 and richard ver.3.4.
My MX player ver. from market is 1.3 not 1.3b3.
Hi, i've just ran into a bit of a problem. I was planning to watch Avatar (1080p) (.mkv format it is in) on my Nexus 7 to see how well it would cope. I started using mxplayer but it had no sound, dice player would play the movie so i then use BSplayer FREE and it worked. Job done. Until i found that i forgot to enable subtitles for the na'vi speech so i could understand. In BSplayer Free when i press in the top right, then select subtitle, then select active subtitle it doesnt find any, but when i use my computer there are 3 subtitle tracks within the video. I've also tried putting the .srt file in the same place, called the same as the movie, but it still wont find it.
Any ideas?
Try Moboplayer?

Moboplayer is laggy and doesnt play the sound. Wont use hardware decoding, attempts to use software decoding and sucks. Bad.
Vplayer Terrible lag.
QQ player Terrible lag.
It seems that only MXplayer and BSplayer play it fine, but MXplayer has no sound. Oh, forgot to mention that Mobo player found the 3 subtitle sets fine so it has to be the apps >.>
did you try SW decoding for MX?
Also, the full version of DICE player was made free last week. There is an option to manually select your sub file.

Dice player (yes i got the full one) says "sorry, this video cannot be played"
In MXplayer i get the 2 S/W options S/W and S/W fast. Both laggy and no sound. Going to try another method of coding the subtitles to the film.

MX player works beautifully for me.. no lag at all
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda app-developers app
MX works perfectly for me, just remember to keep it set to S/W mode and not S/W(Fast mode).
hmm. That sucks. I haven't run into the AC3/Tegra issue yet as SW mode has been able to handle my files, but I've only tested 720p stuff for MKV. 1080 MP4 was fine.
I'll check if I have any 1080p MKVs later tonight. I have a feeling most if not all my 1080 stuff is mp4 though. I really try and avoid MKV since it's a PITA for 360/PS3 and i've never gotten those "on the fly" converting media servers to work. Curse you MKV!

11gb of download son, glad my internet recently got buffed for free though!
At the minute using mkvmerge and Avidemux to see if either will hardcore them into the video itself properly and not softcode.
I spent almost 45minutes today getting the subtitles to match up with my copy of the film. Really frustrating getting that to work properly.

you should use custom plugin and libffmpeg.so on sdcard.
it may be a DTS issues.

Fixed it, by default subtitles are disabled in BSplayer, for whatever reason that is, and then it worked :/ I had to spend ages altering the timing of subtitles though as the subtitles werent the ones for the copy i had Works fine now.
