According to Wikipedia, it should be able to play hevc.
Yes, It does. Just tried it and all works fine!!
At what resolution? 4K?
(yes I know G4 doesn't have 4K screen, but just in case the source files is 4K...)

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:

HW works for me on cm13 with x265 files.

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.

I did not try stock video player. it was working on mx player.
The link isn't working!
MX Player Custom Codec

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

Hi,
Is the Nexus 6P supports HEVC encoding? When I record a UHD video, it appears to encode using H264 and I don't see the encoder in android.media.MediaCodecList.
Seems unexpected since the Snapdragon 810 offers HEVC capabilities.
cheers

In addition, it seems like I cannot use the AVC high profile. When I request so, I always get: "Use baseline profile instead of 8 for AVC recording"

There's a few things that really burns my butt about owning a Nexus 6P. One is no 1080p 60FPS and the second is it doesnt record in h.265. I feel your pain.

But do you think it is only a software constraint that could be worked around, since the snapdragon 810 has hevc encoding capabilities?

I feel as if it is. There's no reason why it doesnt use it. The phones fast enougj, the ram and internal storage are fast enough it just doesnt nake sense. Maybe it's the sensor? If the API doesnt have support for it through the driver then it won't happen anytime soon

Well good news, I have installed Android N and the HEVC encoder is available (not sure about [email protected]).
Hi guys, G4 plus for is there any 1080p 60fps application and mod ?
I don't think there's hardware to encode 1080p at 60fps and the CPU is not strong enough for software encoding. I don't know if even 720p can be done.
Stock slowmotion is something like 540p so 1080p is so much larger than that even 60fps is not feasible

Similar characteristics phones making 1080P 60fps, I think g4 plus is enough. for example; samsung galaxy s5 making record 1080p 60fps, even doing the 2160p 30fps
The processor we have does support video recording up to 1080p 60FPS. However, I do not know whether other hardware on the device inhibits that or not.

Would be nice to provide a solution for ALL here on xda instead of another platform. The purpose of XDA is to provide help for all from all xdaians. Keep in mind.

Hello,
I am very interested in buying OnePlus 6T for it's screen, performance & battery, but the only thing holding me back is that i don't know if it supports playing HEVC 10.bit videos as HW\HW+ Decoder in MX Player?
Your help is greatly appreciated
Thanks
Best phone out right now.
Use Nplayer as it has many more audio decoders built in. Just tested a 10 bit HEVC 4k video @ 10mbps with DTS and worked fine with HW decoding.
Buy it.

Thanks for your reply,
My htc u11+ keeps stuttering while playing HEVC 10bit videos using HW+ decoding, guess will switch to the one plus.
According to this the Fire 8 HD Plus (2020) has the Mali-G52 MC1 GPU:
https://www.gsmarena.com/amazon_fire_hd_8_plus_(2020)-10246.php
From what I can tell this GPU should support hardware 10bit HEVC decoding but MX Player Pro and XPlayer both force themselves to software (choppy) when playing those files. Non 10bit HEVC seem to work fine.
Am I missing something, shouldn't this work?
Edit: This also indicates it should support Main10 1080p Level 4.1 @ 30 fps (which are my test files): https://developer.amazon.com/docs/fire-tablets/ft-device-specifications-firehd-models.html
Edit 2: These are test videos you can try, I can't get any of the Main10 videos to play hardware accelerated (all the non Main10 HEVC files do play hardware accelerated):

You can check the codecs using AIDA64 to support 10bit HEVC or not.

Doesn't help, I doubled checked of course it lists HEVC, which I already verified, but that doesn't tell me if it supports 10bit HEVC. I mean obviously it doesn't since the players are forced in software mode I'm just asking why that is if the GPU seems capable.
Edit: I also checked AIDA64 on my phone which does play 10bit HEVC hardware accelerated and in the codecs list it just lists HEVC just like the 2020 Fire 8, there's no separate codec entry for 10bit HEVC in the AIDA64 list.
