[Q] How to play 1080p video on L5 II? - LG Optimus L3 II, L5 II, L7 II, L9 II

Hi. Is there any way, how to play full HD (1440x1080) MTS video on this device? I use MX player, it does not work with HW decoder, only SW. I have installed MX player codec ARM V7, I used also Neon version. The video plays, but not smoothly and the sound is not synchronized with the video.
BS player did not work well, VLC player either. It is so slow CPU or the graphics device does not support this video format?
Thanks for the help.

Ok, it seems that the only way, how to play the video smoothly, is NOT to enable deinterlacing. It is not enabled by default and enabling cause better picture, but poorer performance. If disabled, the video playback seems to be smooth and synchronized with sound. The only supported decoder is SW.

It only supports s/w because h/w can't handle that. Also why would you want to watch fhd file on some small screen, you wouldnt notice difference if you compared it to 480p lol

Yes, it does not make sense to watch 1080p video on 4 inch screen. I just wanted to be able to open this kind of files without converting to smaller resolution.
edit: maybe some overclocking could help. I tried CPU tuner, but not find a way how to overclock it to more than 1001 MHz, which is CPU default.

You can play video 720p in HD2?

Hi guys
My question be possible video playback in 720p with the power of snapdragon? someone working on optimizing its software?
Coreplayer works with 720p? what formats if is the case?
Thanks guys, with this 4,3 screen, video in HD would be impresive
a greetings!
May I ask why you would watch a 720p (1280x720) video on an 800x480 screen?
Just so that we wouldn't need to re-encode everything specifically for the HD2.
I mean, videos i would watch on my HD2 first are on my PC - hence, i always download the highest resolution i find. stuff i transfer to my HD2 need to be re-encoded, possibly transmuxed, which is indeed a hassle. If there was a way to read at least 720p, it would clearly be good.

Coreplayer fails at his, but it may be due to the H264 codec, as most 720p videos use this codec.
I am not aware of a player capable of decoding H264 to this date, which is a shame.
coreplayer decodes h264 just fine, but can't play a video larger than 1008 (if i remember right) pixels wide.
This has been discussed many times before. 720p playback is not enabled in the hardware and software decoding is not up to the task. And frankly if it did work you be draining your battery decoding details the screen couldn't display.

Exactly, many videos and trailers have them in 720, and is very annoying having to recode, I prefer to occupy the space, and if, although it is 480x800 anyway looks awesome
I tested a video 720 in tcpmp, the audio ok, the image very slow, but tcpmp is very old soft, and no optimized

Video size has absolutely 0 to do with codecs.
CorePlayer doesn't use any hardware decoding on the HD2, in contrast to the Album/WMP, and I believe Snapdragon is locked away from 1GHz/hardware 720p decoding anyway.
Hell, I can see stutter on H264 800x480 videos no matter how I encode it.
AFAIK snapdragon is capable of running 720p video but windows mobile isn´t.
@Yunabeco: did you try this Encoder? stutters on my xperia, but on the HD2 it works like a charm.. tried only some files, i encoded from 720p with subtitle and it looks great with the built-in-player..

Not in theoretical terms, but that's not what I wrote. I was joint pointing to the fact that most 720p videos use x264 compression due to being recorded from H264 encoded HDTV or downsampled H264 Blurays. As he said, he doesn't want to reencode.

There is a version of coreplayer that does use hardware acceleration. 1.3.1 build 7141. Don't know why the following ones don't...
benchmarks on my hd2 showed an app. 20% improvement with that version compared to the 1.3.6.
But then again, coreplayer is limited to 1008 pixels wide, so still no 720p anyway.

Doesn't have anything to do with Windows Mobile. The question is whether the device has the necessary drivers or not.
To answer the thread: No, it is not possible.
And even if it was possible, you would still have to reencode all the videos.
That's because even if a phone is capable of playing 720p, then it only plays certain file formats that it can harware accelerate.
This should answer everything. 720p gives no benefit at all because reencoding is always necessary.
720P play in ACER S200/F1
I can play 1280x720p wmv9 encoded movie in ACER s200/F1 with windows media player. but coreplayer can not. wmv7 and wmv8 encoded movies can not play with windows media player or coreplayer.

[Q] Any working video player for the x10 mini?

I have a SE x10 mini wich has a MSM7227 processor, wich is ARMv6 VFP CPU with Adreno 200 GPU. Like HTC Legend, and some other phones.
I've tried rockplayer, vplayer and moboplayer (in all versions when other build than arm6 vfp was aviable) and I have this problem:
1. If I use normal hardware decoding, the video does not play (blank screen) and the audio sounds bad and plays like 3 times faster.
2. If I use software decoding, the video and sound plays, but synchronization is lost and the framerate is not smooth.
Tested with several normal avi (xvid mp3) files.
download vital player..its really good u can also try qq player..both r free and available on market..
Thanks.
qqplayer lags too. Vital Player works, keeps audio and video synchronized, but has some framerate issues.
Any other options?
It seems to be a problem with your decoding when you convert your videos. The absolut best thing to do is to use Format Factory and use the preset for iPhone. Then just modify the pre-setting a little regarding screensize and boost the framrate a little. When it´s converted into *.mp4 it will run fine even on the mini´s stock player.

What folder do you have to put the videos to be listed in the default player?
I have my videos in a folder called "video" on my SD. I´m not sure if I made the folder myself or if my player made it...
Yxplayer is the only one I found with acceptable performance. Allows me to avoid transcoding as well.

Thanks. It's true, it plays really smooth. Another thing I've noticed is that a lot of video players creates artifacts, like scanlines. I think it is because the qvga resolution.
XY plays smooth and cristal clear. Vital player is the second best, with some framerate drops and artifacts. I really hate the XY interface, but it works, so...

Meridian player is my favourite both for in 2.1 and 2.2 ROMs, stable to both firmwire, and a click on the power button will turn the screen off, and thus we don't have to convert those mp4 files into mp3 format to listen to.
but the recent update is NOT good. it just adds ad... So I have to downgrade it manually to get grid of those annoying ad.
QQ Player is good too to save battery life by lowering the video quality, who care decoding 720p video in such a tiny screen, no I don't ;-)
Rock Player for V6 ARM processor was used to be my beloved, but it's NO LONGER a freeware, so I gave it up.
Hope these may help.

Diceplayer plays mkv with HW acceleration!

Trial at https://market.android.com/details?id=com.inisoft.mediaplayer.trial&feature=search_result
Try it out!
Edit: Diceplayer and ES filemanager is a nice combo, plays mkv via wifi very nicely
Limitations
1. S5PC11x Chipset can play 720p(h.264 high profile)
2. Tegra 2 based phone can not play H.264 high profile clip.
3. Froyo Galaxy S/Tab can not play movie. Gingerbread is required.
4. 2nd gen. Snapdragon can not play H.264 High profile level 4.0/5.0 clip.

Impressed! Works perfectly
Thanks for the link, buying it!
Does it play x264 high profile encoded 720p and 1080p mkv files?
Works perfect so far! Even plays across smb!

Can someone check the playback of the following video clips, using Diceplayer? These clips are taken from this thread here. This is what the OP of that thread says:
This is a survey to see how well current tablets can play 720p and 1080p H.264 movies. Attached below are 6 sample clips from Avatar, each is of the same scene, encoded in H.264 high/main/baseline profile and 720p/1080p resolution. Please try all clips.
I've selected Avatar since it is full-frame and requires more bits than a normal wide-screen movie. This particular sequence is very high action, and serves as a worst-case test. (For playback, please minimize system load by closing down other running apps.)
http://mediafire.com/?15ec78k8s57db1z 1280 high MP4
http://mediafire.com/?pylvj2fa9kzynh2 1280 main MP4
http://mediafire.com/?9uk4z06ig651x3u 1280 baseline MP4
http://mediafire.com/?ge1nwgd5003s3ak 1920 high MP4
http://mediafire.com/?8aarftw6r499dga 1920 main MP4
http://mediafire.com/?7yqwhma8yhrhusq 1920 baseline MP4
The above video 1280 high profile play just fine with stock player. Android 3.1 handle highprofile mp4 with the right spec.
The 1920 highprofile freeze my tab and only gets audio. And when do people want to play 1080p? Better to use 720p with good quality and bitrate.
The thing that's stand out with diceplayer is that you can play .mkv.
It Evan plays videos with dts.
If you want use to test and see different between diceplayer and stock you should upload videos that don't run on stock player
Have tried some highprofile mkv and its almost ok, for the most time it runs smoothly, but sometimes the picture hangs,studder.
It's almost there but it don't reach all the way, hopes that we will see updates so the playback gets better.
Also think that mp4 baseline and other video plays smoother in movie's when there is alot of movement and panning.

Same here, it opens, sits for a second, then closes.
Works pretty well with these ([email protected] AC3) TV shows that I download. Not bad since Mobo couldn't play these smoothly. Video has some hiccups but audio is smooth.
Downloaded a sample video ([email protected] DTS) and there was no video. Then the file stopped playing half way through (27 seconds in).
But I don't watch movies on my tablet anyway, only TV shows. And this seems to work great. Let's see if it'll be able to stream the TV shows smoothly. Thanks OP!
This plays my 720p x264 mkvs perfectly. Fantastic find, Doc, thanks.

Ahh finally, since neither stock nor mobo could play my .mkv's (tv series) this is godsend.
I'm running HC 3.1 & TW.
Got Diceplayer playing back a 720p .MKV file (not sure if it was high profile or not) - not buttery smooth but better than anything else I've seen so far on HC3.1
Got a couple of questions, I was wondering if anyone can answer...
1) Diceplayer claims to offer hardware accelerated video decoding - is this for .MKVs?
2) Is that hardware acceleratation for Tegra 2
3) IF so, how are they managing it where so many others have failed? (Wasn't the core problem with offering HW acceleration for .MKVs down to lack of support from the nVidia side of things?)
Cheers
1) Diceplayer claims to offer hardware accelerated video decoding - is this for .MKVs?
=> Yes. it use hw accelerator at any format with MPEG-4/H.264
you can play MOV / AVI files with HW accel.
2) Is that hardware acceleratation for Tegra 2
=> YES.
It plays 720p high profile mkv without any issues. With 1080p, The video stops playing, but the audio still works for some, but wont for most of the 1080p videos either mkv or mp4. I think this might be achieved in the future.
720p playback is great !
1080p just freeze the tab but hey not even my Galaxy S II cant handle Full HD besides the resolution is useless for now anyway

I don't think it (Galaxy Tab/Tegra2) can handle level 4.1 or higher. But plays the rest better than anything else I've tried.

Awesome.. which leads me to question 3.. *How* are they managing to implement HW acceleration where the other software vendors have failed? e.g. the reliance on core NVidia software library support (or lack of it apparently) ??

mpeg2 1080i playback choppy?

i use mx player s/w decoder to playback my mpeg2 1080i tv shows but some shows playback a little choppy. would overclocking help? i used cool tool to monitor cpu and it didnt go over %50 although mhz hovered around 1512. i understand standard player doesnt support mpeg 2, nor does h/w decoder on other players but i dont want to sacrifice quality by converting file format.
I honestly don't see why you would need to over clock in the first place

[DISCUSSION] Best H265 player

Hi all, I've a Snapdragon 801 and I'm looking for an optimized player to see Full HD H265 videos. I tried with a 1920x1080 8 bit 4,7Mbps video but:
1) With VLC it pretend to play smooth, but it lose the colours.. I tried all combinations, enabled HW acceleration, chosed the mediacodec (seems better between choices), it helps only a bit.
2) Tried MX player with dedicated codecs. Enabled HW acceleration as well, It lags.
3) MM video player lags (the video works about 5 fps) but it looks the best way to watch movie.
Any chance? maybe trying other settings, or a player with optimized ARM decoding.
Anyone would share a comment here?
Thank you for your opinion!
anyone interested?
