Can we make Omnia i8000 media player directly play .mkv files? - Omnia II General

maybe i missed it, but I cannot directly play .mkv files from the stock media player in Omnia i8000. Is there a way to make it compatible? I am currently converting .mkv to .mp4 or .avi to play them on my i8000. BTW this player is really good. no lagging or screen tearing or anything.

i'm also looking for proper mkv player.
TCPMP is very lagging

It would be great if we can play mkv files on TouchPlayer. It is one of the good player for video files, but really frustrating to use with large number of audio files.

How to play .AVI files on X1?

i remember just dragging n dropping avi movies on my Blackberry bold ..i can just play the movie and enjoy it.
but on X1..the Windows media player says 'cannot play the file'
why?
isnt it supposed to be more friendly with such formats?
NO..i am not willing to pay for a software just to play a world famous .avi format.
avi
simple answer is NO you can not play avi's out of box. you have a couple options....either re-encode the video to another format or dl a different player. I like coreplayer and i know alot of other people like it as well. some people just get the divx player but you have to know what was used to encode the video as avi is only the container file and not the encoder.
most of my videos are DivX encoded...
so is it possible to install DivX codec on X1 and then play those files?
really sad but..i thot i can just drag n drop the movies on my mSD and watch
yeah using coreplayer or TCPMP
not sure if the codecs works with windows mobile media player though
but those 2 players does the job
Okay thanks a lot for the quick response guys.
i got hold of Coreplayer....just wanted to try.
it works..i just dragged n dropped some TV shows and movies ..and they work fine
i have yet to see such an awesome clarity on a mobile phone.
this is even better than bold because i can see the movies in widescreen and the contrast is superb

stuttering divx player with avi files

hey people,
just a quick question, what the deal with Divx player and avi files.
after a minute or so it starts to stutter (video and sound)
what you think stepping over on mp4 would be beter?
greetz gunz
oke figured it out my self.
changing to mp4 solved the stuttering
I have the same problem. Did you convert your .avi to .mp4, or just got new files already in .mp4? If you converted, mind telling how?
Did you use the AVS Converter? I just saw an add for that.
Use "mp4forhd" to convert
And than htc player to play

where to put a movie?

Hi i have a avi movie that i want to play through the built in HD2 movie player, obviously i need to put it on my 8gb storage card but how and where should i place this movie and get it to play?
Thanks
the avi wont play with the HTC player or WMP. You will have to convert it first to mp4. Either that or get coreplayer that does support avi (divx/xvid) it doesn't support ac3 audio though.
a player called TCPMP will play them and ac3 audio and that is free. Do a search for it on here.
You can put the file anywhere on your card you like mate

does mediascape play mp4 videos?

i have different video files (avi, mkv, mp4, etc.) and i usually use rockplayer since i don't have to convert the files..
avi files on rockplayer is awesome.. no lag, no errors..
but when i play my mp4 files, it lags and in some parts the sound disappears and then appears again..
and then i noticed that mediascape 'recognizes' the mp4 files and shows them on the 'recently added' section. so i played it and voila, it works perfectly without any lags or skips.. HOWEVER, i couldn't get the sound to work at all!
so does mediascape not play mp4 videos? or is it just my mediascape having problems? if so, can u guys recommend me a better player that will play mkv and/or mp4 without lags? thanks!
avi, mp4 and some other video formats are actually wrappers. what matters is the video and audio format inside. the mediascape player is actually quite nice, no lag, even play wmv straight out of the box.
yeah the only problem being that my mp4 files don't play any audio on mediascape..
Must be the video cause I got lots of mp4 files and they run perfectly in mediascape.

Check which codec was used to encode the video... could be an unsupported codec.
Mods: shouldn't this (and 10 other threads) be moved to the q/a section?

Playing 720p mkv

I was having quite a few problems playing HD mkv files, tried multiple players. The only player I found that played them well was BS player. Thought I would spread the word, I was rather annoyed that i was going to have to transcode a bunch of movies to play on this tablet but then i tried BS player and was incredibly surprised. Not sure if the pro version is worth the money, im hoping VLC will eventually be able to handle it.
EDIT: With software decoding MX player was able to play them as well. I tried DICE player as well and it also seems to work. For awhile I was having issues with those other 2 players but they seem to work fine now. It still depends a lot on other encoding settings but all these players seem to work fine with 720p mkv.
Vplayer is good also...
all these players can't play videos properly ......I would recommend u to convert video into mp4 or avi using formatfactory for PC .....once converted copy to ur tab and play using mx player or v player or stock ...........the resolution and bitrate adjustments make videos look lot smoother and plays without any hookups ......
HIT THANKS IF I HAVE HELPED
I have no problem with stock player and 720p mkv files as long as you don't use High Profile H.264 encoding. The file size will be a little bigger (than High Profile encodings) but that's about it.
