Just tried to rip my blu-ray movies to mp4 in 1080P, and play on my xoom. It works great.

Not to be a sour grape, but FYI this is the typical spam post I've seen in other tablet forums. Read the fine print on "About Company". They'll likely land a few catches, which should be enough for them to perpetuate the spam.

Anyone doing anything esle to rip blurays to their xoom?

I am ripping my own blu rays with Handbrake. Reducing to 720p settings at 2500kbps. Avatar looks great on it. I originally ripped it at 1080p, but I didn't really see any difference and it made the file a lot larger.

I've been using DVDFab with moderate success.

Yes, bluray can play on xoom, but you need convert it to mp4

the dvd catalyst beta has had no problem converting my blurays to 720p. Best $10 I've spent recently.
Going to try the 1080p presets for some hdmi viewing soon.

I've been ripping BluRays using DVDFab as well. Reduced the screen size to 1280X720, FPS between 22-25 and all movies have looked flawless. Audio in Stero @ 96 and raised the volume to 180%.

DVDFab is more expensive than this one as they can both do this job great

There are soo many programs out there, I found Videora that works fine, just set it to iPad and it makes a Goog MP4 file that works fine on my Xoom!

Can Handbrake really rip DVDs and Blurays? I thought it states that it is not a ripper...
EDIT: I use AnyDVD and AVS Video Converter. Unfortunately, it does not support True HD audio tracks yet I also have Cyberlink Media Suite 8 but it has only very basic settings to choose from. I think the key is to use the DivX compatible .mp4 version, not the h264 which is in my experience choppy on the Xoom. But honestly, since I have most movies ripped for my iPod @640x480 I think I'll keep them at that resolution

Using AnyDVD HD and Handbrake and I am ripping blu ray movies I own. No issues so far.
Ripped Serenity, Sector 9, Avatar, Despicable Me. Tried a variety to test it out. Working great.
I actually started putting them on an HP MediaSmart WHS server and they stream great on wifi to the Xoom.
Using tvirsity to stream off of WHS.

>Unfortunately, it does not support True HD audio tracks yet
Most converters allow "pass-through" audio. Monolithic converters aside, True-HD and DTS-HD can be processed by a number of standalone tools, to either their DTS/AC3 core, or be converted to AAC/MP3.
>I think the key is to use the DivX compatible .mp4 version, not the h264 which is in my experience choppy on the Xoom.
DivX now uses H.264 in MKV/MP4 container; it's called DivX Plus. It likely retains the old DivX (H.263) codec for backward compatibility. In other words, "DivX" the brand no longer equates to DivX the codec. Anyway, when people encode with DivX, 90% of the time they aren't using DivX, but XviD, which is the open-source, and superior, version.
You are probably using either H.264 baseline or main profile, which is simpler to decode, and (for now) works better on the Xoom.
>Using AnyDVD HD and Handbrake and I am ripping blu ray movies I own. No issues so far.
The latest HandBrake 0.9.5 doesn't support Bluray PGS subtitles, and I haven't seen indication that the nightly builds fix this. As long as you don't need subs, HB is OK for BD rips.

1080p rips + DVD Catalyst + Moboplayer = AWESOME

I finally got my rips working NICE!
Downloaded the mechanic last night in 1080p. Converted using DVD Cats highest encoding, shrunk the file from 17gb to 7gb. Plays perfectly on my 55" LED TV from the hdmi out.
just got the incredibles 1080p, used HQ2 setting sincer I wont be watching on my TV. Went from 7.5gb to 2.6 and looks/sounds amazing on my Xoom
Highly recomended

I agree 100%. I just re-encoded The Incredibles using DVDCatalysts 4 HQ1 Profile and it looks and plays Awesome, it's 1.92gb (this is the Blu-Ray of course). I also have (Cars, Monsters Inc, Avatar, Percy Jackson, MegaMind, Kung Fu Panda & Toy Story 3

Just converted a 14 gig 1080p rip of TRON to a 2.8 gb .mp4 using HQ2...
wonder if I can watch it on TV without it lookin bad...
Its nice, remote into my home desktop and do all the converting/download/unrar while im at work

Converting using HQ1 now, seems to be going twice as fast as HQ2, will report back when its done

Are you guys using the free version or did you splash the $10? I don't mind Handbrake but it's not the best/easiest GUI.

+1 for Moboplayer & DVD Catalyst. I paid the 10 bucks and it was well worth the money. Handbrake is good, but DVD Catalyst just makes it too easy to get great quality rips
The only thing I would add would be a command line interface so I could write a Powershell script to automatically encode a batch of movies in my library.

Yes, you can. you can add a multiple files in multiple locations. You can even add folders (in you want to convert a complete series season for example) of seperate files.
The only problem I am having is that if I have a multi language, it doesn't convert it to the chosen language.
btw: I have the full paid version. The USD is cheap for me in Europe

I ripped a couple 1080p movies last night using DVD Catalyst with the Xoom HQ2 settings, and for some reason when I play them back on the xoom it WILL NOT stop fast forwarding. Just skips in about 22-25 second intervals like I'm holding the seek button....Anyone got a clue what could cause that?

Are you using moboplayer?

sounds like a botched conversion.
did you test on another player on your xoom to see if it does the same thing? are these rips from disks you own? or are they downloads off the net?
did you make any adjustments to the stock settings in the program?
were you multitasking on the same computer that was also doing the conversions?
what movies?

[Q] Tegra 2 HD playback issues?

I've read a few reviews of the Xoom and now the Transformer that mention issues playing back 720p or higher HD video. Stuttering, etc. Is there any truth to this? Flash HD video I know stutters but honestly it skips on my Core2Duo PC. I'm just referring to standard video files I might load from my microSD card.
Thanks in advance.

Just got mine today.
I put a 720p MKV of a tv show and used RockPlayer.
It was not pretty in either hardware or software decode mode.

You have to check that profile those HD videos are using.
Tegra 2 can decode 720p high and 1080p baseline or main (not sure here), the problem is that Honeycomb is not fully optimized yet to use all Tegra 2 acceleration features.
I think that if you re-encode those HD videos to baseline profile, they should run smooth.
There will be an upgrade from Adobe for flash to hardware accelerate 720p videos on these mobile SoC, but it needs Honeycomb 3.1, it's still not available yet.

So is the problem honeycomb or is it the Tegra 2? I can live with it being Honeycomb but I don't want to buy weak hardware.

Supposedly, MoboPlayer and VitalPlayer are better than RockPlayer.
Have you guys tried HD videos using either?

Hi Jocelyn,
I don't know what mkv files you are trying to play, but either in software or hardware mode they suck for me. I watch Naruto Anime and its horrible using moboplayer. I don't discredit moboplayer devs as they have come up with the only player on the android market that works for most files, but mob do not work smoothly. As for other file types, they work flawlessly. I have converted StarTrek and DespicableMe and they play beautifully without lag or skipping.

Have you guys tried the optimized codec pack for Moboplayer?
Tegra 2 is suppose to use ARM V7 VFPv3 (right?).

Its not a honeycomb issue. Its a tegra 2 issue and it is not a software issue its hardware. H.264 does not work good or at all. You have to use MPEG4. I used a 720p video that plays great on my ipad 2 and had to convert to mpeg4. I tried to get good quality from MPEG4 and it increased the file size from 5.6 to 9 gigs. I swore to never buy a tegra 2 device again after testing other tegra 2 tablet & phone but I keep getting sucked back in by the hype. I hate apple but I have nothing but good things to say about the ipad 2. Everything just works and its way way faster.

And this one plays without stuttering and lag? What's the bitrate? Almost all of the series I have are in 720p with [email protected] and bitrate around 4mbps. Most of them aren't even downloadable at 1080p so I don't mind if these 720p are just working fine.

This is what confuses me, I keep hearing it's honeycomb (and hence s/w issue which should be fixable by s/w udpate) and then I hear it's Tegra 2 issue (and hence h/w issue which can only be fixed with Tegra 3 device).
If it is Tegra 2 issue, I am leaning towards canceling my order and waiting for Tegra3. I have a lot of videos which are H264 720p Hi profile that I was hoping to watch on the TF.
I currently have a SGT which will tide me over....
What I would like is some confirmation that is indeed h/w issue....
KG

Is there a good Handbrake profile available for the Transformer?

Its a shame that the Archos 101 plays 720p mkvs just fine and the tegra 2 sucks at it, hope this will be fixed soon!
btw. here is a preset for Handbrake, rename to .plist:

This is a duplicate thread to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1053125
Another user posted a Handbrake profile in that thread to get your mp4/mkv to play smoothly on the stock Honeycomb build (assuming it's software related). The only downside to this profile is that it will double your file size since it's baseline and uses less compression.
As for the hardware vs software issue, we should know soon assuming Google releases HC 3.1 at the Google I/O conference May 10th.

[Q] lack of video codecs??

i know there is a converter and some people having problems with mkv and i know about h.264 and im starting use my atrix as multimedia i watch some movies in "dvdrip" i doubt since seems quality it lower, i try with an anime dvdrip .mp4 and i cant watch so im wondering wich software i can use to convert in the desire format without lose quality. i have any dvd converter.
so not sure how to convert and what settings. this start annoy me since my n1 play several formats. sorry if this was covered but i didnt find the right solution.
thanks a lot

I would appreciate an answer to this as well.
I have found that the Affix will play most of the .avi movies that I download. I haven't had any luck with the few mp4 or mvk files I've tried.
If anyone knows how to convert any format to something the Atrix can play, please let us know..
Thanks!!
Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk

Instead of converting just install a player that can decode all of these files. There are a couple of good ones out there. I've read good things about Meridian and VPlayer.

I try rock player no luck ,i download from youtube the google io in hd 60 fps 1280x720 and .mp4 and surprise I can't play.
My one year old nexus one do fine stupid motorola y try convert with any dvd and was awful the video was so fast not sync with sound,i guess because 60 fps and max van convert its 30 fps any more tips? Thanks

The issue is not codecs, it's Tegra 2 cannot handle high profile HD decoding (at least at the moment)
If you stick to Main profile and no B-frames you will likely be ok. Which also means you are likely having to re-encode your video.
More info here
Handbrake preset here

qqplayer works

If you add the video with motorola media link (think that's what its called) it will convert it to play on your phone.

Our video player supports:
All video formats (need to choose "software decoding" mode in most cases)
Popular subtitle formats such as SRT, ASS, and SAA
Subtitles built in MKV, MPV, MOV, and others
Multi-audio streams and multi-subtitles
Playlists and continuous play on same type files
Videos streamed through HTTP, RTSP protocols
Media libraries and sort videos by type
Thumbnail displays of videos

strange dude, my atrix plays all formats, i think that have one, that only comes audio, but this video was 1080p(HD) and i dont made even 1 update in my atrix

it's not that simple.
just because you can play one individual 720p h.264 file doesn't mean you can play them all. there are different profiles / bit rates etc.
For h.264 Tegra 2 supports main profile but not high profile. Xoom owners have done all kinds of tests on this. To date no video player has been able to overcome this.

I bought this tablet for two things.
I cannot save money.
My girlfriend moved four states away (NY to VA) and I wanted something to do while on the train for 7 hours. I did nothing on it for 14 hours total but watch movies (OTG cable) and play solitaire. It does both awesome!
Screen is great, headphone jack is nice. If the 10" was cheap I would buy one too!
Battery life while watching movies isn't stellar, however nothing is

Best small portable movie player I know of.
Use headphones in a noisy environment - helps the sound a lot.
I am fond of MxPlayer from the app store - plays .avi movies (ripped DVD format) without converting.

I also happen to think it's perfect for watching movies - having used both a phone and Xoom for comparison. I think the 7" form factor is perfect for tablets since you can comfortably hold the thing in one hand.

Works great for movies, when rooted you can use an OTA cable and stickmount and play off external storage. However, I think external storage taxes the battery a bit more than on-board storage.
Root, stickmount, MXPlayer, VLC, and you're set.

Use dice player. Or mobo player best two video apps on android. On my 16gb ver without ocing I can play 720p h264 flac or aac audio with subs without any issues what so ever with dice player. As 720p h264 with flac or aac is really taxing and you need a high end device and the nexus7 fitted that to the T. smooth frame rate none or extremely little frame skip is not really noticeable at all unless you are looking for it and even if you are its hard to notice.
Best experience with video watching to date for me with android devices. Droid x2 was OK in the video department cause it had the tegra 2 and the dinc2 is just pathetic with its adreno 205. But this nexus7 plays videos much better them my own laptop. And my laptop is not really a pushover either. 380 dedicated vram, 4gb of ram, 1 tb 5400rpm HDD, dual core 1.9ghz turion (sp?). And this thing does the job either the same or little bit better or little bit worse depending on the video file. So far I have 1 video that won't play. But I think it was encoded improperly because only my PC with cccp with mpc can play it with no problems.
But highly recommended. And especially with dice and mobo player it should be hard to find and issues.

It's perfect to watch movies. The colors may not be perfect but the image is pretty sharp. The only disadvantage is that the screen is not very visible outside with sun directly at it. But this is with pretty much everything. It's also very portable and comfy to watch a movie. Specially if you have to hold it in your hand

This is the seventh reply to verify the Nexus 7 is great for watching movies. I use the Dice player for h264 720p HD movies. After the 32GB is full, the Nexus Media Importer App and an OTG cable lets you stream movies from a USB flash drive. No rooting required.

Thanks all I will be picking up a nexus 7 from PC world on Tuesday hopefully.
