guys - i copied some HQ movies to my atrix and they play great on my TV~!!!
is there a way to play the movie and do other stuff on the phone?

Is there a way to do what on the phone? If you're asking about playing back movies, you can so that with the natiave video app

playing the movie is fine - i want to do other stuff WHILE the movie is playing on my tv lol
Ooh, if you to to the home screen I'm assuming it closes the video out?
I doubt it; the phone is powerful but I don't know if it would support playing a video while plowing you to do separate processes in the background.

i really want one, but i have heard that you cant't watch video on this? i have loads of tv series and films on my pc, and i would be using this xoom for watching on the train and and the gym....
will i be able to do that? someone told me there is an issue ?
The issue is lack of software to take advantage of the hardware. 720p and 1080p videos have an issue I believe. It varies depending on the file type you're trying to play. MKV files have the biggest problem. As far as I know, divx play fine..?
Once someone like Rock Player update their app for Xoom support it should be fine. The hardware can handle it, just need the apps!
I have personally played a ripped copy of Avatar, I own on blu ray, for a Xoom I own. I have played it at 1080p and 720p. There is just a specific baseline format you need to rip it at. I like the 720p setting as there is little visual difference and it is a lot smaller file. It is definately HD.
Apple has the "ready to go" movies by iTunes you can buy where the Xoom you currently have to rip in a specific format. The movies I rip though are of much higher quality than from iTunes currently. Several of my friends own iPads.
Once flash is out for the Xoom Amazon Video on Demand will work. I have tested it already on my Droid X.
In my opinion Apple wins right now is easy of use getting movies, where the Xoom smokes it in quality.

So the movies / TV shows you purchase from iTunes, can you play them on other non-apple devices or are you stuck with them in apple products? ie, can you purchase from itunes and play on the xoom?
When the ipad first came out there were issues getting videos in the correct format, until software was updated/released.
At least with the Xoom, once the software is available, any video you have from just about anywhere will play on it. iPad/products still require the video to be in a particular format no matter what.
I've been using Rock Player on my Xoom to watch ripped DVDs of the simpsons and friends. Technically, they are indivual episodes ripped as mp4s. So far, it works very well.
It depends on their format. Mp4s seem fine.

most of mine are avi's will that be a problem?
AVI's work fine with rockplayer for me
great thanks mate!

You could download Big Buck Bunny, it's a 10 minute (or there about's) HD animated film, try it out for yourself and see how it plays back.

Hey there, I just made a video showing you how the Xperia Z works well with the Madcatz Fightstick PRO.
It's probably the first time I do a video in english so is not the best thing you've ever seen.
Anyway, If you have any question just fire it.
Hi!
After reading and using this forum for a while, i have finally sign up to ask you a problem impossible for me, but fortunately there are people with much more knowledge than me (many of them in this community) who might solve it, so here i am!
I have a bunch of devices an i would like to use them all together, because i hate having useless things and this could be very handy too.
i have got a mini projector picopix 2330 and i would like to use it to see videos from my NAS in my bedroom (mpg files + srt subtitles). the trivial solution was to find a cable from my cellphone to rca, just connect it and play videos on my phone and watching them in the projector, but this does not work so easily
so, the projector is the philips picopix 2330, candidate cellphones: xperia ray, iphone 4 and xperia z1c.
xperia ray doesnt have the output video option, the iphone 4 can't play this videos with subtitles and i am not sure if it can send video out, and the xperia z1c just send digital video.
my best shot are hdmi - rca converters, but they are really expensive or very suspect... i dont think just a cable with digital one side and analog in the other can do it... do you think i could get it?
