can DEFY PLUS play (720p/480p avc [email protected] cabac/4 ref frames) in stock player or dice player or mx player hw mode?
here is 720p sample;

and here is 480p sample:

Well, this post is a bit too late. But i guess it might help others.
The 720 p video plays on Mx player in stock ROM of Defy plus, but there is some lag which is noticeable only to the meticulous eyes.

Hello !
Yesterday I was very much surprised when I downloaded all mp4 HD video from my SGS2 to the TAb and neither file couldn't be played on stock player. After hours of rush in the Internet I tryied almost all other known players but the bext I achieved was slow motion video in dice player. What is your expereience? Did anybody run smoothly HD videos on his device?
720p is fine. 1080p is not. You can grab bsplayer free from the market, very nice player.
I believe the only hardware accelerated codec is H264 so any video not in that format would have issues with 1080p. I personally played a 720p Xvid, over the network, using MX Player last night. DICE had speed problems with it.
In my experience DICE is better for MKV and MX is better for AVI etc.
there's discussions and recommendations about this in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1306457
If there is any app that would do it if the hardware was up to spec it would be Dice Player. It eats all my 720p MKV's for breakfast but still can't do 1080p.
I'm using rooted official 2.3 rom. when I play mkv 720p movies , video plays at lower frame rate than usual and problem in audio video sync. I use mx player and hardware decoder is not available for mkv. can please anyone suggest me some tips to play 720p smoothly. and is there hardware decoding available in new adreno driver in dzo ics for mkv?
I m using bsplayer lite tha supports mkv.
720p on nearly 480p device?
Professionals can correct me, there are few reasons why it won't play in full speed:
1) .mkv files need usually the same space as .mp4, but it has better quality. BUT needs more power to play. That is the disadvantage of matroska. So if there is too high bitrate on the video, it lags/wents off sync. Overclocking might help.
2) 720p??! Really? This phone CAN record 720p video with good fps, but only in good light conditions. You can even watch them (because they are so low-bitrate), but if you have like 720p movie, it lags due to high bitrate it needs to look clear. BUT why would you want to play 1280x720 (16:9 ) resolution video in 800x480 (16:10) resolution screen? Shapes will look odd... I would prefer 480p (854x480).
3) I'm guessing that your movie is on your memorycard? If your memorycard is too slow, can that be the reason for lagging too. This can be fixed with faster memorycard.
4) Switch to Moboplayer. I don't have any experience of mxplayer, but Moboplayer can use hardware decoding for that.
I am using 2.3.5 official update.
720p videos are working fine with MX player with hardware decoding on.
But 1080p videos are not working with hardware decoding. It plays with a lot of lag with software decoding in MX player.
I am wondering if I overclock the device will it play 1080p videos with software decoding.
Is there any other way I can play 1080p videos on this device.

1080p videos are working well in MX player but with some slowness on CM7.2 (.32 kernel) and with overclocking to 1.8 Ghz. That's for me, maybe it'll be different for others.
which video player ll support mp4 1080p format on ma defy plus?
No one.
The Defy's screen doesn't support Full HD. You can always play a video using any video player. I recommend MX Player.
Hi, here is a guide to play HEVC H.265 movies/videos fluently on the Moto G 2014. (HEVC on Wikipedia: https://goo.gl/9xFc3).
As you might know, the new HEVC H.265 video encoding standard is a quite CPU intensive codec and the Moto G 2014 doesn't support hardware HEVC H.265 decoding, resulting in choppy video playback with frequent frame drops, freezes, and so on. All software implementations with all optimizations enabled I've tried so far are not even able to play fluently 720p videos.
But I found out that there is a configuration which enables fluent HEVC H.265 playback (At at least [email protected] colors).
By using MX Player (https://goo.gl/GQPa7) + a custom optimized codec from XDA (http://goo.gl/S98AnH), I got 720p movies working fluently (And MX Player says that the video is being Hardware decoded??).
It has even better artifact filtering than switching it to SW decoding.
I was surprised how well this is working, and I really don't know how they achieve Hardware decoding (must be some kind of partial acceleration I guess).
Stuff to note:
- 10 bit color videos won't work and are just viewable using SW decoding which is too slow. If I'm not wrong not even 10 bit H.264 videos are supported natively.
- I only tried 720p videos with 8 bit color. Not sure how well it works with 1080p videos with 8 bit color.
GUIDE:
1. Install MX Player from the Google Play store: https://goo.gl/GQPa7
2. Download this optimized codec from XDA: http://goo.gl/S98AnH
3. Extract the codec to you phone SD.
4. In MX Player, go to Settings > Decoder > Custom Codec. Click on it and find the custom codec on your SD.
5. Enjoy.
Hope this guide will be useful to somebody. I took me some time to figure this out, and I found this basically out by surprise.
Greetings.
I don't know if its right but maybe HW support is already there

I did everything like you said but I'm still getting SW decoder with HEVC videos :crying:

Coincidentally just a few days back, I saw another post from you saying that it works on CM13 and I already made the switch. It works great! Thx :good:

Meaning with the above MX Player + Custom Codec
or generally with video player/s on cm13?
P.S.: I would like to merge as much as possible to h265/opus/mkv video files.

Here is the XDA thread of the codec: https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=19112#downloads
But since MX Player has been sold, everyone wants to try the alternatives VLC or mpv-android.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=is.xyz.mpv
mpv-android is a video player for Android based on libmpv.
Features:
* Hardware and software video decoding
* Gesture-based seeking and volume/brightness control
* libass support for styled subtitles
* Play network streams with the "Open URL" function
