more information would be just great
like what roms have you tried
and did you even bother to read or search in those rom threads
to see if maybe just maybe there might be a fix for it

Installing different players is great, but have you tried MX Player WITH the Arm v7 Codec (on the market as well)? Most vids play flawlessly for me with that setup. Also do what Kameirus said and check the ROM thread for fixes, and it would also help to tell us which ROM and what version of that ROM you're on.

Maybe you're trying to play a 1080p video?
What are the specifications of your video? maybe it IS the problem, not the phone?

Good video player???

Is there any video player like coreplayer on windows mobile? I know there is YXFlash but when I play movie it is not smooth (choppy)...
use meridian , but it will not play divx videos
same here i am missing a good divx player on android !
is it possible to play divx on android?
Sent from my HTC Legend using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
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.
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
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
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
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^

Htc desire z not playing videos wth hardware coding

Does anyone know why? Causeit use to work before but now it doesn't. I have to use software coding and the videos lag.
Thanks.
So is it Just me with the problem?
some video formats doesn't support hardware coding...
try another format (by converting it, not renaming it), and put hw for video, and sw for sound

Desire Z HW accel. works only up to 720p and 30fps with max level 3.1 (h.264).
From your avatar and location, it would seem your are on ICS. Since ICS is a port, and lots of hardware aspects needed to be hacked together, I imagine this may be the issue. Do you mean the movies played before you flashed ICS? Or they worked on ICS, and now they don't?
I have had the issue on my Flyer, where it seems like there is some problem with the hardware codecs working correctly (using Rock Player). Then I reboot, and they work fine again. If you haven't tried to reboot, that may help.

How do you choose HW for video, but SW for the sound? I ask because I have a lot of videos that will play back full speed, but with no/bad sound! How????

Some more background would really help. What ROM? Have you switched ROMs recently at all, or made any other changes? What player are you using.
You haven't really given us anything to go on.

No but it was to work fine on mx player I tried other ones but dame result.
Man still not working. Could this be cause ur phone gets too hot?
Um, no. Not unless you're putting your phone in the oven or its really really hot in your house.
It is odd that it was working before, and not now. Are you sure nothing else has change in the meanwhile (installed any apps)? And the exact same videos that worked before, right? Have you tried uninstalled your player, and re-installing it?

720p video playback in ICS worse than HC

I saw there was a thread kind of about this but that got derailed...
I'm using Dice Player, MX Player, and BS Player. BS seems to work the best, but still not as good as Dice was back in HC.
Does anyone know if it's just a matter of those apps having to be optimized for ICS?

Well it's not ICS that is killing some 720P file, it's the Tegra...
i find ICS a lot better than HC, but still unable to play high profile 720p mkvs without lag.
DicePlayer is even worse than honeycomb though. MX and BS player are barely watchable.

Have you restarted at least once since upgrading to ICS? I had video issues that went away after restarting.
I'm having similar issues
I can play mkv normally but audio seems to not work.This is using the stock player.

I confirm the same, Bsplayer plays the audio but not the video . As for the Dice it always crashes ! I will lnstall Revolution HD 3 and see if this will play the 720p videos !!!
all those having issues- you need to reboot.
also bare in mind that video playback issues are not the OS's fault, Tegra 2 is underpowered to play video at 720p and 1080p, always has been, always will be.

I disagree , before ics i had revolver and i was able to play 720p without any problem. I rebooted 7 times after the update but still nothing , even the camera stopped working in panoramic mode !

me too, you need to do an ICS reinstall, my video playback is the same as on revolver now.
rebooted around a dozen times between lockups and just actual reboots, i've noticed no difference in any app.
i find it strange that people seem to have very different experiences than me. i have no issues getting them to play, it's just the lag.
do a reinstall of ICS.

Seems about the same for me. High profile really tears apart the Tegra2. I love this tablet but man the Tegra2 sucks.

Wtf? You are a member of xda...why do you not no how to install a rom? There are like 5 threads in the dev section on how to install ics .....you want hand holding you should walk up from the basement and ask yer mom...
Not to be a Richard........
yep
tried to played 720P
yestarday
very very choppy
same files that i play usually on HC that plays smooth
i personally reverted back to HC
There was a thread somewhere about best settings for Handbrake for encoding mp4 to suit the Transformer. These are the settings:
"Start with the Regular/Normal Preset
Container: MP4 File
On the Video tab, choose:
Video Codec: H.264
Constant Quality: RF 24 (Lower number is better quality but higher file size, I wouldn't suggest going lower than 20 in this case)
On the audio tab change the Mixdown to "Stereo", bitrate 160
On the Advanced Tab:
Maximum B-Frames: 0
Uncheck "CABAC Entropy Coding"
Uncheck "8x8 Transform"
Uncheck "Weighted P-Frames"
After those changes, you can save these by clicking on Presets -> Save Preset and name it something like "Transformer". "
This is an exact quote of the post, I don't have the original on hand to thank the original poster. But he does deserve my thanks, as this made 720p video beautiful on my FT101.
Doesn't work so well when streamed via wifi, I think 802.11G is a little too slow, maybe I need to go to 802.11N. Works fine via a portable hard disk, or a microSD card, or even a USB stick. If you have the dock or the usb converter adaptor thingy.
Sorry for those who don't have access to a grunty PC for converting using handbrake, I guess my post isn't much help to you. I'm waiting until I get my TF101 back from a warranty repair to try a few things out, including ICS. I'm currently running Revolver, and I'm VERY happy with it.. kudos GNufabio.

You have over 1000 posts here
You list a ton of devices in your signature(what's the point anyway?)
Yet, you don't know how to reinstall a rom
what the f?
Furthermore, you go on to demand that the person who gave you a nice suggestion should help you even more by holding your hand through the process.
You must be a fat American.

well one person got reported for being a douche.
and yes, i'm well aware of how to flash a rom.
most of us here however are running stock ICS from the update with no root or anything like that. So simply saying reinstall ICS is not a very intelligent statement.
If i have an issue with my nexus i know how to back it up and reinstall because i have CWM installed.
however on this, as i just said, i'm running a totally stock device. i've never rooted, never installed a custom recovery, and i don't want to.
and personally, i also think the suggestion of installing ICS is BS and won't make a difference.
anyway, thank you @squire-au for that. i have seen that post and have been hoping there would be another way since totally encoding can take a very long time. but i will be testing that out overnight to see what happens.

I agree though, 720p is very stuttery now when it was fine before the update.

Video playback in cm9

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?

Uninstall older versions first. If that doesn't work, try clearing market data.

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!!!

Like I said I cannot convert mx player plays awful with x264 and kacend plays it but a little choppy so I'm hoping for a custom mod someone has written
sgy support hw accelerated h264, but supported video resolution is very2 limited. default youtube resolution (320p or 480p maybe) still playable. beyond that, you need to convert.

Please read before posting - Iv tried all players from play store and as iv said kacend works best but is not perfect
I was looking for a custom mod script or codec to allow playback without slow motion picture
Well i'm sure it's possible, when i play a laggy video(on mx player), i try to pres play pause (on and on)-» means if developer kindly force to refresh per video frame i think is possible.
On second tought better encoding on higher PC is take the utmost factor. I don`t know if you like anime or not. Please try this site `www.anime-60mb.net` and download 480p video(the latest/ new release ep) run smooth with no lag!!
then try the download from darklegend 60mb you will experience some lag. Again It's just example
