Using which player app? Try BSPlayer, and try all the possible combinations of hardware and software decoding.

SOUND in MKV Files?

How can I get the sound to work in the MKV files with my. Nexus 7
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
software decoder
Just use something like MX Player and select software codec for audio, it should start working.
Also BS Player plays it all without a problem automatically (tried AAC and DTS soundtracks)
BS Player worked best for me with mkv's, smoother playback & less battery usage.

Putting movies on N7

Can someone point me or explain to me how to transfer movies from PC to tablet? What programs do I need?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
The N7 mounts as a USB using Windows. Click and drag.

On a windows computer all you have to do is drag them over and drop them in the sd/movies directory on your tablet using windows explorer.
You can also just copy them over over the lan if you are using a file explorer on your table and can access your network.
I used es file explorer's built in FTP server. Turn it on and connect from your computer then copy wirelessly.

If you download a lot, then most formats won't work.
Download vplayer or another media player that will run them once on the device.
Or get an OTG cable to hook flash drives into it and download media import and use it that way.

Handbrake is also a good conversation program and it can it runs on win and mac
A good player is the mx player, it can even play more formats then the stock player and it has subtitle support
VLC player beta just got an update that fixes the random crashes on N7 devices. Been using this ever since

I would purchase a OTG cable, and use any memory stick or external hard-drive you may have.
Put your movies here, and play them from that.
If your rooted use - StickyMount
If not then use - NexusMediaImporter.
Could someone confirm the below,
Stickmount = read n write to USB drive (root)
nexus media importer = read only (non root)
Is that correct?

no idea about media importer but stickmount lets you read and write

That's correct. Latest version of importer supports ntfs which is good if you have a large mkv movie rip.
MX Player seems to work the best for me.

Thanks for clarifying, have you tried VLC player? The new update fixes the random crashes on N7 devices, been using it and its worked so great so far.

VLC lags a lot if you try to play 1080p video. MX player with hw+ decoder doesn't.

Didn't know that, never tried a 1080p movie but thanks for the advice.

The USB has to be in FAT32 in order for me to write to it right?

I confirm, MX Player with hw+ plays everything perfectly.

MX player with HW+ has played everything I have, smoothly. But I find the standard gallery app more power efficient, so I use that when I can

low fps while playing 1080p video.

tried BSplayer, MXplayer and VLC player.
all of them has low fps. i dont know is codec problem or what.
i believed the player that can play 1080p is Samsung Video player.
and one has the APK file to share?

The N7 is 720p. I assume that is the issue. Try a 720p video.

+1 for Mx Player. I also have GPlayer (formerly super video player) installed as a fail safe just in case.
