That would I also like to know.
Edit: Mostly for the .sub files. I have tried Mobo, Rock, QQ, and Vitalplayer and none of them supports .sub files as far as I can see.

I use rockplayer for my series n movies, srt files are working well.

Yes +1 for the mobo player.
I use dvd Fab for all my movies,it also gives you the option to hard encode subtitles in the movie file.
Sent from my A500 using XDA Premium App

I can confirm Moboplayer supports SRT subtitles. As best I can tell, it looks at your video's filename, and then looks for the same filename except ending in .SRT. ALL CAPS file extention was the only way I could get it to work. Good luck!

Rockplayer works fine .. but my Iconia shutted down a couple of time while watching movies in RockPlayer .

Try Mx player from market. It has an option to play in full screen and also to employ hardware acceleration /software acceleration.

dice player is good too!! give it ago!

If you get Freemaker video converter, which is free, for your PC you can convert your videos.
I use Act 1 Video player because it let's you zoom the size.

Qq player work great

mx video player. Avi file with srt greek subs. works perfect.

another person for mx player

I've tried about every player available -- BSPlyer Lite, VPlayer, MoboPlayer. MX Player is all around the best - the only player that streams avi movies from SMB share (used with FS File Explorer). I also like MoboPlayer.
I believe the best player for Tegra 2 is DicePlayer - paid ARM 7. It sucks that the paid version is not available and who knows, may never be available from Android Market. VLC is still in beta - looking forward to that one!
Does anyone know what's going on with Dice? Seems like they pissed someone at Google off...

+1 to MX Player, plays everything I have thrown at it, if not in H/W then in S/W mode. Loads subs, dims buttons and resumes play even from LAN.

Video Player that can play .wmv

Hi,
In my phone i have MX Player, Real Player, Zimly, Mobo Player and Easy Video player. But any one of the above are able to play >wmv video files?
Can some one suggest me a video player that can play .wmv files smoothly.
Thanks in Advance.

our p500 cant play some video files smooth..because we have low h/w acceleration..

Smoothly....idk but I believe mx video player has support and its free on the market....download the video player and the armv6-vfp codecs
Sent from my LG-P500 using Tapatalk 2

Yes I can confirm that. I played a 720p wmv file with MX player weeks ago (but of coz it's not smooth on my ICS rom)

I already tried that. MX player plays only audio, it doesn't shows video for .wmv files.

Did you try software decoding(SW) mode?(on the upper right corner while playing).
Otherwise video probably has big resolution and you need to convert it.(480x320)

I tried to play through software decoding but it say "this video can't play using software decoding".
And the video resolution I am trying to play is 640x480. Is this resolution is compatible with our optimus one?

Yep.,640*480 videos are playable on p500.
But if you are on ics rom then it is lagging. Try to play on any GB rom, it's playing smoothly.

Rockplayer shows most of the archive formats, but don't play some of them smoothly.

Video player?

Hey guys, any idea about a good video player , which one should I chose ?

I'm using MX Player, it's perfect!

> if your on ICS.. and you only play videos on your local storage.. use MOBO player.. better soft decoding playback than Mx.. hd videos plays no lag... but if you use youtube.. Mx is will be appropriate.
> and one more thing.. if your asking questions.. post it on Q/A section here.

^+1
I recommend MX player with ARMv6 VFP codec.. you will find both in play store!!

Dude,practically it is impossible to play any hd video on ics on our device.
So don't confused on video players choice.
The main problem in ROM;not in lg p500.

MX
The mx player is perfect for lg p500,other option for u might be moboplayer both with arm6 codec.

I've been using mx player for the last year and there has NEVER been a bug or problem and plays every format.

MX player is the best. the new update brings a new feature h/w+ which works on p500 and makes it the best video player

I'm having a hard time playing certain videos that I had made on my tablet like some avi files and some mp4 and I'm using mx player is there a codec I have to download to use on here

There is a arm7 codec available in the market for the mx player. I am running avi files without issues.

Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app

The arm7 codec is for Tegra 2 processor. It will install the codecs but if you don't have a Tegra2 processor theres no real point. I know this as I need to install the arm7 codecs for my Acer A501 but have installed them on my SGS3 too. I deleted them with no difference in playing videos from the S3. They are not needed and aren't used by anything other than the ARM7 cpus... Waste of space and time installing them...

MX Player is great! Have you tried switching to software mode? Usually if it doesn't play in HW mode then SW mode fixes it.
I've stopped updating it since version 1.6f. That was the last version that still had DTS audio support and it still works great!!

Yeah, software decoding is good but I prefer HW decoding for video and SW decoding for audio. Works brilliantly well... :laugh::good:

I have yet to run across any video to stock video player will not play. What type of problems are you running into you with a stock video player?

I have had a few where a weird rip has happened for audio. Video plays and audio won't on stock player. I tend to use avi, mp4, matroska(mkv) and other video files but depending on how they were ripped I find certain players work well and others don't. I've also found some of the larger files use the cpu intensively for video and audio goes out of sync. Software for audio seems to fix this...
Most files work on the stock player but it's annoying to find one you can't play...

Hi,
i've faced the issue not having a GUI interface anymore when i touch the screen.
Anyone else faceing this issue? And yes, i've set the option to do so.

How to play HD videos without lagging??

How can I play HD videos on my device without lagging??

Use mx player.
Sent from my GT-S6102 using Tapatalk 2

There are two common type of videos
1- avi encoded with xvid
This plays fine on galaxy y with mx player
2- mp4 encoded with x264
This will not play on stock based roms without lag
You can use CM7 roms and then enable hardware acceleration in mx player but due to limited hardware libs for this device it will not work for every video

Can i refer everyone to my post above
It doesn't matter what player you use - result will be the same
convert the video to avi encoded with xvid if you need to play on phone but you will need to use a pc to do it - would take days to convert via our phone

Have you tried to wipe cache or data or format your phone ? i think ur problem is ur phone.. try uninstall other app that contains to much memory .. or clearing ram before playing can do also.

Does anyone read my posts
it's impossible to play high definition videos encoded with x264 on galaxy y without lag although some may play a little smoother on cm7 with hardware acceleration turned on in mx player but due to limited hardware libs it doesn't work for all videos
you can try every video player in the world it's not going to make any difference
the only video type galaxy y can play smoothly is avi encoded in xvid & non hd video eg low res mp4 not encoded with x264 3gp mpeg
so convert the video if you want to play on phone or see if there is an avi xvid alternative
