yes YXFlash works but it;s pay app and options are limited.
Don't understand there isn;t any good FREE player. Android is Linux based so it should be easy...
CorePlayer is working in andoid version but no release date on their tweeater...
i find that 98% of the videos I try to play...video files, video podcasts, and most youtube videos are out of sync.
anyone else has similar issues?

i came from the n900 multimedia powerhouse tablet and this is like a full downgrade lol
in this category anyway
Hmmm this is a bit of a blow.... I was just looking at getting a Legend or maybe Desire but With no decent movie player it could be a non starter
Out of interest I notice that the Legend is similar specs to the HD - how does it compare? anyone had both.... I find the HD sluggish with later WinMo ROMs and Android to be honest.
Rockplayer Plays it all.....
Its in public beta for now.

yeah i was going to say what about rock player, its in public beta but it plays it all. might as well grab it while its free even if it is a tad bit buggy since its a beta. plus i'm pretty sure it plays everything, even divx
didn't rock player use armv7 ? when the legend support only armv6 :\

Rockplayer is working great on my legend so I would say no...
the new rockplayer public beta has support for armv6 / legend
Im glad there is a nice player finally no need to convert that much anymore saves a lot of time
I hope they update it and stays free

What will happen with Rockplayer if the public beta time is over..Anyone know something about this?
1. Will be blocked (unusable), except you pay for it (pay app)?
2. Continue as freeware and with tons of new updates?
I am in desperade of having a good FREE video player. ^o^
Works pretty good on Desire
and somehow they decided to only make it available to the country with access to paid apps. long live market enabled

Got it... will use it as my default for a while, see how it works out.
Does it do multitouch??
anyone care to post the apk? can't get it from the market....unfortunately i stay in australia where i have no chance to get alot of good apps...
Took it straight off, poor design and looks cheap...
lol....but it looks good on the video demo...just wanna try out playing flash on it.
it's clunky but...

...video playback is great. UI's a bit iffy, and the zoom (it does support multitouch) is in steps, but the killer feature is the video playback. Just tried some online content and it looked excellent - worth keeping just for that I think as an alternate browser.
yup, thats my point actually lol, just for the sake of the video playback...
someone please get me the apk =D
it's on the market now
ya i know its on the market if you read my previous post....
anyways i found where to download it =)
http://get.skyfire.com/dl_android.php
and if anyone wants a link to a great site with alot of movies and tv series then pm me =)
i just watched grey's anatomy on it, and tried to watch alien, =D works wonders all on my amazing HTC Desire wooohoo
I couldn't get nothing to play lol

skyfire 2 is brilliants. It is still beta so no true serverside flash rendering yet, but it works just like the default browser with multitouch and with compression tehnology. Loving it.
I tried this app for ages yesterday but could only get one site to actually play any flash videos which is kind of the point. The site was redtube purely for research purposes of course
Sites that wouldn't play include:
itv player
demand five
megavideo
quicksilverscreen
empflix
vho
Can someone post some good video sites that do work? This app has a lot of potential but at the moment it's not living up to it. It is in beta though and I hope it will improve over time.
It is a pretty good browser though with multi-touch. Another nice feature is one button "connect as" - you can choose Desktop, iphone or Android which can load a mobile version of a site (or not)
purely a personal feeling, but I think the stock browser is way better, for what matters miles ahead of every other phone I've tried.
still, a lot of options is always an excellent thing...
Sent from my HTC Desire using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
yes the stock is way better, just that it cant play flash video like skyfire period..
i tested megavideo, it works 1 out of 10times.....dont know why.......
there are other websites that are working and i watch a full movie of alien on it streaming on a website...=)
I might have been lucky, flash worked 9 out of ten times on stock browser for me. good to know I can rely on skyfire when problems happen however.
my 'mistrust' for skyfire comes from trying to use the last version on WinMo and finding it really slow compared to old versions. sort of different on modern devices...

Me too even the BBC site loads the video but you cannot click on the play button it just sits there at the first screen or am I doing something wrong
Flash didn't work at all for me on Skyfire. Pinch to zoom was terrible aswell, it has this weird "acceleration" which means it zooms for half a second after you stop moving your fingers which I hated. I uninstalled it for now as the stock browser seems far better.
i am playing flash videos that i can't play on the stock browser....skyfire works great for me...
maybe all the years of helping old ppl crossing the road finally pays off, i am getting a good return...
This was posted on AF by Yumms with a link to Flash 10.2.155.67 apk. Couple reports are very positive. Enjoy

Thanks, it's pretty good and better than the 10.1.
Installs fine.
How do you test Flash? (what websites?)
I tested Youtube in 360p and a video on stern.de (I don't know the resolution). But I will test more videos.
Giant plus one on this! I used the flash that is over in the zoom forum and it works great! I've tried every different iteration / hack out there and have never had usabel flash, 10.2 FTW!

Thank you!
this is assome!this works much better than old 10.1 release.
i have an A101.
Finally theres an really good flash release for our gen8 devices.
Awesome !
Thanks for tellin us this !

6 replies and only 2 thanks? Hmm...
lol j/k
I tested it as well and youtube was very watchable in HD. It was the mobile site, but I assume the same would be the case for the full site. I did have a problem with Dolphin HD freezing, but I think that was the browser itself, not having anything to do with Flash.
Has anyone tried this w an A43?
Jim
THANKS a lot !!
Just installed it, my browser crashes each time I try to view a flash video...
Edit: Just rebooted the 101, it seems to be much better
It's not installing for me, the whole tablet freezes... tried 3 times and had to keep the power button pressed for it to come back to life. Did you guys uninstall 10.1 first? I have a 101 on the latest fw release.
i have had installed flash 10.1 first and then 10.2 from here thanx again for that post

Ok... tried again and it installed the fourth time, but whilst the video is smoother than with 10.1, the audio is out of sync
Any advice?

What browser are you using? I found that with the heavier browser like Dolphin HD, it was giving me problems. I tried Opera browser and didn't have much problems playing flash vids.
Thanks for this,
I have tested this on the app 'Tv Shows' and and the BBC iPlayer app, it seems much better than 10.1 so far and hasnt crashed of had any audio/video sync issues.
Awesome sauce! Works like a dream on my 101!

A70S?
I've installed it on my A70, and it doesn't seem to work. Is it not supposed to on the A70? What sites beside youtube can anyone suggest? I'm always redirected to the m.youtube site.
I have been digging around for a video player to use with my Shift that supports XviD and MP3 audio. Well I finally found one called RockPlayer, but it seems like it only works correctly on Sense ROMs. It is built off ffmpeg and works lag free 100% using NFX Shift 2.0, but the latest CM7 starts playing the first 0.5s and then stops. I attached the player APK; maybe some of you can take a look and report back what ROM you are using & your experience. Thanks
rockbox was cool but didnt play anything i had smoothly. i went from the epic (which plays virtually everything) to the shift with plays virtually nothing. i just downloaded arcMedia from the market (free) and it works very well. been watching movies off of it for the last week and never had a problem. this is running awesomerom (sense based).
just my $.02
Thanks for the response & advice. One conclusion from all my tests is that you need a SENSE ROM in order to get proper video playback using MPEG4+MP3. I've tried some ASOPs like CM7, Evervolv, and others, but none work so I will keep on trying until I can release a fix.

I've used Rockplayer and it's buggy, slow, and won't play all types of files. MoboPlayer is superior in every single way. Plus, it's free. It's the VLC player equivalent for Android haha.
im using vital player and it seems to work fine for me
Hey guys!! First post but im daily xda atrix forum visitor. Anyway, I installed the new cm9 beta 5.0 yesterday. It works great and I love it (thanks jokersax!!). I have been goin back and forth between cm9 and cm7 for the past 3 months. I love cm9 but there was always a couple a nagging issues that prevented it from being my daily, therefore, I always reverted to çm7. I thought this version cm9 was going to be my daily; up until an hour ago. Playback of videos are bjorked. Videos that have been working perfectly fine in previous versions of cm9 are so sloe and choppy in 5.0.
Sorry for the long post but any advice would be appreciated. Btw I spent the last hour searching the boards and Google but did not find anything. Sorry in advance if this has been posted before.
TIA!!!

Use MX Player with software decoding. Hardware video decoding on ICS is borked until we get proper drivers.
OK thanks! I figured that was the case. The only reason I asked is that I could've sworn playback was working on previous versions on cm9. OK thanks bro!!
On a side note. What is the video recording app everyone is using since thats been borked for a while and does Skype video chat work?

Thanks for the quick reply!!! When trying to do Max players code I get this error: "incompatible with other applications using the same shared user id"
I looked everywhere an couldnt find an answer.
Thanks guys

Uninstall older versions first. If that doesn't work, try clearing market data.
Skype and GTalk video chat don't work, but Tango definitely does. just FYI.

I got same thing on MX 1.6. Fixed for me by downloading to PC from MX website, transferring files to phone, and installing from phone afterwards.

thanks but mxplayer still was extremely choppy (with soft decoding enabled) and i tried mobo player and put it on soft decoding and the videos are also very choppy. i guess all type of video playback is borked in cm9
this is my first time on a computer since monday (was on tapatalk yesterday and couldnt thank you guys) so ill be hitting the thank you button right now

Hmmm... I'm getting fairly good results with MX Player. But I re-encode my videos for the Atrix's screen size (max. 960x540, if source is smaller, keep source resolution). 720p (and up) movies are still choppy. I guess our CPU can't handle decoding HD resolution movies using software only.

oooo ok i see what ur talkin bout. im sorry i wasnt clear enough. i was talkin about playing my videos that i shot with the video camera (before i had cm9). although i guess it would be the same thing. i shot those videos in 1080p so i guess like you said the cpu cant handle it. that stinks! i was hoping to play my videos to family when i get back to NYC. i could always save the vidz on my computer then re-encode them i guess.
o well, thanks again!!!
