+1 for mobo, only one for me who plays all my file formats without reproduction problems

MXVideo is the best I have used so far. My uhhh... Special videos need to be hidden though.

I use the vlc app...works great for me

Mobo Player is the best, no doubts!!!
Works very smooth and like a charm in my HTC Desire

Mx player is the best no doubt.second place goes to moboplayer.however if ur using ics(cm9/one cosmic)which are pretty much alpha use moboplayer which works well on ics.mxplayer1.5 has issues which are being fixed..if not ics then go for Mx,its the best.

Mobo Player is top notch for videos in sd card
Dice Player is good for streaming from site.
VLC is good for streaming videos on computer

Mx Player Best !

MX Video Player is good. And Mobo video player is also not bad.

I like stock player

Mx Video Player here. Works pretty nice. Many options.
And what i love - subtitles options (background, font, size, color, centring....)
And free version has all the features of paid vs. but there is an add in free

moboplayer, just the best

See now that's weird to me. I have dropped frames on MX on hardware mode and software mode works but the quality is definitely not as good.

Based on what I read above I eagerly downloaded MX Player. It was in no way as smooth as Zimly media player.
I picked up Zimly initially just to play music, I don't like bothering with playlists, I just wanted something to shuffle tracks.
Since I don't want to start another thread. I'll just ask it here ..
Is there a video player that can play mkv files WITH subtitles? Like Anime videos?
Thanks in advanced.

AOKP Video Player

I've been rooted for a while but just recently decided to take the plunge into some ics roms. Been running AOKP for a few days now and am loving it. The only issue I'm having is I can't seem to find a decent video player in the market. All the ones I've tried are either choppy or seem like they're playing in slow motion.
Any recommendations for a good video player that works well with ics/AOKP. Ideally, I'd like to get back to the stock player which worked perfectly for my purposes.
Thanks for any suggestions/help.

Despite the good reviews, MX player doesn't seem to jive with my device (everything's in slow-mo). Bsplayer seems more promising.
Is there any way to get the stock player that's been updated for ics?

I have a weird issue that MX Player (and BS player) won't HW decode some videos, says its not available. With the software decode there is an audio delay. Its a SD AVI file, plays other files fine, even some AVI files. Switched back to SHOstock2, and the TW player plays great. One thing I always miss when on non TW ROMs is that amazing player.

Hi. codecs ARMV7 suits defy. No need to instal the others. I`ve tested almost all video players on market and have to say that in my opinion MX rulez. Perfectly works with my web browser, local movies, dlna. Has touch screen brightness and volume control, adjust the image size...etc. Never failed.
Did the player ask you install automatic or you just did it manually.

hi guys, i just got myself this tablet and im loving it, im trying to play mkv files on the tablet but the player i have been using on my phone doesnt work that well on the tablet, (QQplayer)
what do ye recommend to play mkv files
MXplayer.....
and witch codec is it? or you dont install any codecs?
No codecs needed
I think BS Player Lite is better then MX Player. MX stopped support for DTS decoding and MX plays AC3 on SW mode and not HW. BS Lite has it's own HW engine and play AC3 on HW mode.
I agree, Bsplayer also have lan mode to stream without problems from my pc
Tried BS Player and it works fine! Plays Mkv without any problem and with sound
thank you for the suggestion

There are numerous threads that exist already on this topic... MX Player devs are currently working on an update for the N10 but as of now, BS Player is your best bet.
Oh sorry i did not see that when i made the thread .But thanks for the heads up..

Just wondering, bsplayer is better than vlc? Never used bsplayer.
MX Player not really hardware accelerate (certain MKV file got sound issue and can only software render) for Nexus 10 at the moment. I am using BS Player now, it work nicely at Nexus 10.

I still get the 'DTS unsupported Audio Codec' error when I play HD mkv files on MX Player.
The videos plays just fine, but I don't get any audio.
BSPlayer on the other hand works perfectly. I would use that.

BSPlayer works fest for me, MX Player is a bit slower and has problems with some files.
This is in newest update already. I like MX's Interface Bettler though
Even with the update MX player still slightly stutters with mkv files I have tried 720p and 1080p
For me MX better (smoother) plays mkv 720p on software decoding.

Tried that out and you are right much smoother! Wonder why HW decoding stutters so badly compared to SW decoding.

Just know that SW decoding will drain your battery much faster than HW.
