[Q] quicktime .mov videos - no audio

Tried playing a Quicktime video on my Galaxy S2 (stock ROM KF3 and stock player)
The result: the video plays smoothly, except there is no audio.
The file codecs are:
audio: MPEG AAC Audio (mp4a)
video: H264- MPEG-4 AVC (part10) (avc1)
These are the videos I tried: http://www.animusic.com/downloads/index.php
How can I play these videos correctly? preferably using the stock video player, but if I need to use a different one let me know.
Hmm try "Diceplayer"(trial or paid) and or "Moboplayer"(free) both have decent software decoding. Can utilize native decoding also.
Yes, Dice play it correctly, thanks.
Is there a way to install additional codecs or something like that to allow the stock player to play it?
Nope, that's not possible.

Video files.

Hi guys,
I have some news to share, if you would call it news XD
Recently, .mkv video files started playing on my player through the stock video player.. And before, it said "Video cannot be played." Weird right? Has anyone experienced the same, video files that are not supported by the player start working all the sudden?
Try with VLC for Android. In PC is the perfect video player...

No, I'm saying .mkv files started to play on the stock video player, which isnt supported..
The "mvk" is just the container of the "real video" (audio + video) and doesn't tell anything about the codec used in audio and video streams.
You can get both audio and video, you can even get only video or only audio and sometimes you get nothing, this is because the stock player can't decode the streams due to codec missing.
Just try a different player. On my PC I use K-Lite Mega Codec Pack and on android I found MX Player truly complete, so i'd suggest this.

Adding AC3 support to stock video player / Allshare video streaming

Anyone had any luck adding support for AC3/DTS audio codecs to stock video player? I've tried methods in this thread, designed for 32-bit devices running KitKat, http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-sound-support-galaxy-tab-pro-8-4-tw-t2964732, but it didn't do anything on my Galaxy S6 Edge.
Dice Player, MX Player of course have the necessary support for these codecs. But when it comes to streaming videos to TV via an Allshare Cast Wireless Hub, only the stock video player is able to play directly to TV "DLNA style", rather than just mirror screen. And that results in considerably smoother playback..
What's your best combination of software/hardware for streaming videos from your phone to TV?
I use vlc player.

MX Player Issues

Streaming Movies with MX Player, Movie just stops. No Issues when running VLC Player. Streaming thru Terrarium TV Apk.
Settings in Player don't seem to make a difference.
Thanks!

Try ARCHOS player. It's far better than MX. The interface is great, the sound goes Dolby trough HDMI.
