Download mx player, and install the codec for arm7 tablet.
you need to install a third party media player. the stock media player in android dosent play alot of files(or at least not very well). there are several out there just pick a good free one. most people use moboplayer and it will install the needed codecs when you open it(but last time i tried it ,it didnt work on acer android 3.1 why i dont know) so I use rockplayer light for now. it plays most files with out need for other downloads.
There are tons of media players just go to market and find one that you like and that plays your files.

i had success playing all mp4 files using quicktime
i had the exact same problem. any video i transferred to my pc would not play. quicktime would play 3gp files, but not mp4. no other software would play my mp4 files except for vlc player. i'm assuming it's an error in my windows installation or registry. i'm gonna transfer a couple vids to one of my laptops and see if they play on there. then i'll know whether or not it's due to my windows installation. if they play on laptop, i'll do a clean install of xp and see if they play.
Super will play them as well as the newest realplayer....
Hi
Why u not try Ultimate Media Pack or Classic Media Player? U can get this soft on www.9down.com
download quicktime OR download and install this then you can play the vids in wmp on your pc

I had the same problem, I just rename the video files from .mp4 to .3gp on my computer and it plays them just fine.
loving my streak ive just come to put an avi file on it and it wont play ... from reports the streak will play any format ??
is this not true or do i need to download something for an avi file to play
You will need rock player to play avi's.
Hi mancuk29
No idea where you have seen it reported the Streak will play any video file as the built in player plays limited amount of formats Divx and Avi's not being in the list. But as zero.fx has already pointed out Rock Player is a great player that plays most formats and is free with ads or not that expensive for the no add version but make sure you get the v7 version that supports the Streak best. As long as the files are well encoded it should play virtually anything you throw at it in great quality.

see also vplayer, plays my avi just fine & is free from market (prob someone has uploaded apk on here somewhere)
& no, i don't have any association with vplayer developer in anyway!!
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......
Going to finally get around to putting some videos on my tab. I just wondered what format was best? Do you guys use the stock video player? Probably will mostly be anime stuff and am planning on just converting with Sony Vegas.
Any help would be great!
the best format for the tab seems to be mp4, but I play 720p mkv files fine too, including over wireless. The stock video player won't cut it so you should get a better player. There's plenty on the android market, mx player and mobo player are free, dice player is not. I use mx and it works fine.
I haven't yet found a format that BSPlayer won't play fantastically Plus it's free, so there's no reason not to IMHO...just remember it'll ask you to install a plugin first time round - install whichever one it asks you too, that'll improve performance as it will use hardware decoding
Change your video format to mp4 with a xivd or dvix code, you will find it so cool in this tab. This format support 1080p video.
This tab is weak with h.264 code.
Thanks to all you guys got it working great with Bsplayer!
I have new kindle fire in original form. I have not rooted it or made any changes. Can i use any video player like VLC or mobo player ?
I tried to download VLC and MX player , but are not working on my kindle.
please let me know any video player to use without rooting my kindle.
thanks in advance for all your help.
MOBO player is the answer
sideloaded it as soon as i got my Fire. Copy videos into whatever folder you want - presumbably "videos" folder, using USB connect to PC
ON you Fire, use File Expert or ES File Explorer to browse to file and play it.
ALSO, if you set up your WiFi and share you media folder on your PC, File Expert can browse to it and play you media files, using MOBO. you may be asked to open file with a browser [i think ES file explorer does that] just click ok and it will open in MOBO
with that and Netflix, i'm using my fire to watch videos all the time!
I tried rockplayer and BSPlayer, they both work fine, but you need to select software rendering, otherwise you can't watch videos.
I'm on stock 6.2.2 and MX Player works fine for me. I also use MoboPlayer.
I have tried MX player, Rockplayer, VLC for Android (alpha) and others I don't even remember now. All of them got freeze while watching mkv files.
Now finally happy with QQPlayer. Available free from market I can run all of my mkv/avi files without any problem.
KF can play 1080p & 720p very smooth no loop with GPU POWERVR SGX540 decoder. You can use stock, mobo, or mx player.
But:
With HW decode, you have to re-encode the video with the following link:
