Does anybody know if the xoom has limits on to what type of videos it can play?
I have the xoom and galaxy tab and had due date in avi format and played great on my tab
But when I load it on my xoom won't play for some reason
You should be able to play that file in rockplayer or a similar app. Natively i am not sure if the xoom can play avi files.
thanks that worked tried other players and they wouldn't play
Completly forgot about rock player

loving my streak ive just come to put an avi file on it and it wont play ... from reports the streak will play any format ??
is this not true or do i need to download something for an avi file to play
You will need rock player to play avi's.
Hi mancuk29
No idea where you have seen it reported the Streak will play any video file as the built in player plays limited amount of formats Divx and Avi's not being in the list. But as zero.fx has already pointed out Rock Player is a great player that plays most formats and is free with ads or not that expensive for the no add version but make sure you get the v7 version that supports the Streak best. As long as the files are well encoded it should play virtually anything you throw at it in great quality.

see also vplayer, plays my avi just fine & is free from market (prob someone has uploaded apk on here somewhere)
& no, i don't have any association with vplayer developer in anyway!!
I know that the tab is divx certified but, i would like to know if it is possible to play divx in the browser? On sites like stagevu, loombo and vidxden.
Thanks in advance.

No,
i am not able to play divx videos from web.... its showing the plugin symbol
That all said, my Tab is loving XviD dvd rips
I mainly want the Tab for Xvid DVD rips. Do you know if the Tab plays avi's that our encoded with an AC3 soundtrack rather than MP3. a lot of dvd rips have Ac3 rather than MP3 and I heard that the galaxy cannot support multichannel soundtracks.
It has played all files I have tried until now. avis' in a lot of formats, divx. h.264 all new series. It even does mkv files in 720p with no problems or lag at all
ac3 is supported. But the stock player has decoding problems. Try vPlayer alpha - its the best atm.
so with vplayer alpha does it play 720p mkv files with AC3 (a52 codec) soundtrack, dont want to convert everything to AAC 2 channel or MP3.
Any word on firmware upgrades to fix stock video player???
None yet... but youre right, the stock player is very good otherwise! I love the browser and media library. And of course the ar control.
so can someone confirm does it play perfectly with another video player instead of the stock one.
As I said really interested in playback of 720p mkv with AC3 (5.1 sound)
Gonna try it when they are for sale next week, take my sd card and see if it works
Yep works fine in vplayer. But remember, no files larger than 4gb on internal storage.
Also, the 1080p playback advertised for the galaxy tab refers to divx and xvid I believe, so high profile move are square in third party player laps. Lets hope they make fixes too!
Hey everyone I am just wondering if anyone is having problems playing video on the tab. I am trying to play video that i played on my galaxy s but the wont play on the tab. I thought they could play the same amount of files types. Is there something i have to enable?
Thanks
the tab and the phone have the same codecs. should play almost anything... mine plays everything i've thrown at it.
I have the same problem, my Tab won't stream the movies my EVO will, it says this video not authozied for this device
I'm having issues trying to play mov hd files, I can't find a good player
Sent from my SGH-T849 using XDA App
Mine wont play any mpeg movies.
My porn is mpeg!
Ok so i have checked a few different file types and seems like it won't play divx but has no problem with xvid.I noticed on the bell galaxy tab box it does not say any thing about being divx certified did they remove this? The message is unsupported file type and the codex is divx v5 I know that these played on my galaxy s from bell.
Hi,
Does anyone know if the Adam will play MKV files, cause I stored all my movies in this format?
Waiting for the shipment of my Adam.... (timeslot 15-22 Jan, but no confirmation yet)
i'll let you know when i get mine tomorrow
Thanks in advance.
(my new shippingdate is lacked to the 29th by the way...)

The Tegra2 chip can play MKV video... however, please keep in mind that MKV is just a container, so it depends on the way the video was actually encoded. That being said, a number of people with the ViewSonic G-Tablet which runs the Tegra 2 chip reported that 1080p h.264 High Profile videos will not play.
Some of you may remember that the Boxee box was originally slated to have the Tegra 2 chip, but they swapped it out late in the game due to lack of support of 1080p High Profile h.264.
okay i tried have Adam read two different movie files off a USB key. I tried to play back with VideoPlayer (NI), Movies (google), and mVideoPlayer (supposedly support mkv files)
1. a 1.4 g divx files (avi) plays back very nicely
2. mkv files, doesnt recognize the format by any of the three apps above
if want me to try any other video players let me know
Have you tried vplayer?

NEVER MIND!!! I found out how to play them. Dont use Sniffer to play them. I located the file with Astro Manager and "Open As" ==> video ==> your player
Android Google Video ==> plays the video just fine, no subtitles
VideoPlayer (NI) ==> plays the video, no subtitles.
mVideoPlayer ==> plays the video with subtitles. Shuts off after a minute (maybe because it's a demo version)
vplayer ==> doesn't open my mkv file
and this is all from the USB key
Usually i like to see Naruto Episodes from Taka and One Piece from yibis so far both play fine with thng e default player and have subtitles, even tho i noticed some stopping and desync sometimes.
Going to finally get around to putting some videos on my tab. I just wondered what format was best? Do you guys use the stock video player? Probably will mostly be anime stuff and am planning on just converting with Sony Vegas.
Any help would be great!
the best format for the tab seems to be mp4, but I play 720p mkv files fine too, including over wireless. The stock video player won't cut it so you should get a better player. There's plenty on the android market, mx player and mobo player are free, dice player is not. I use mx and it works fine.
I haven't yet found a format that BSPlayer won't play fantastically Plus it's free, so there's no reason not to IMHO...just remember it'll ask you to install a plugin first time round - install whichever one it asks you too, that'll improve performance as it will use hardware decoding
Change your video format to mp4 with a xivd or dvix code, you will find it so cool in this tab. This format support 1080p video.
This tab is weak with h.264 code.
Thanks to all you guys got it working great with Bsplayer!
