720p video playback in ICS worse than HC - Eee Pad Transformer General

I saw there was a thread kind of about this but that got derailed...
I'm using Dice Player, MX Player, and BS Player. BS seems to work the best, but still not as good as Dice was back in HC.
Does anyone know if it's just a matter of those apps having to be optimized for ICS?

Well it's not ICS that is killing some 720P file, it's the Tegra...

i find ICS a lot better than HC, but still unable to play high profile 720p mkvs without lag.
DicePlayer is even worse than honeycomb though. MX and BS player are barely watchable.

Have you restarted at least once since upgrading to ICS? I had video issues that went away after restarting.

I'm having similar issues

I can play mkv normally but audio seems to not work.This is using the stock player.

I confirm the same, Bsplayer plays the audio but not the video . As for the Dice it always crashes ! I will lnstall Revolution HD 3 and see if this will play the 720p videos !!!

all those having issues- you need to reboot.
also bare in mind that video playback issues are not the OS's fault, Tegra 2 is underpowered to play video at 720p and 1080p, always has been, always will be.

I disagree , before ics i had revolver and i was able to play 720p without any problem. I rebooted 7 times after the update but still nothing , even the camera stopped working in panoramic mode !

me too, you need to do an ICS reinstall, my video playback is the same as on revolver now.

rebooted around a dozen times between lockups and just actual reboots, i've noticed no difference in any app.
i find it strange that people seem to have very different experiences than me. i have no issues getting them to play, it's just the lag.

do a reinstall of ICS.

i don't mean to be a ****, but in all your posts i see you give nice suggestions, with no help. how about including some help in your future posts.

Seems about the same for me. High profile really tears apart the Tegra2. I love this tablet but man the Tegra2 sucks.

Wtf? You are a member of xda...why do you not no how to install a rom? There are like 5 threads in the dev section on how to install ics .....you want hand holding you should walk up from the basement and ask yer mom...
Not to be a Richard........

yep
tried to played 720P
yestarday
very very choppy
same files that i play usually on HC that plays smooth
i personally reverted back to HC

There was a thread somewhere about best settings for Handbrake for encoding mp4 to suit the Transformer. These are the settings:
"Start with the Regular/Normal Preset
Container: MP4 File
On the Video tab, choose:
Video Codec: H.264
Constant Quality: RF 24 (Lower number is better quality but higher file size, I wouldn't suggest going lower than 20 in this case)
On the audio tab change the Mixdown to "Stereo", bitrate 160
On the Advanced Tab:
Maximum B-Frames: 0
Uncheck "CABAC Entropy Coding"
Uncheck "8x8 Transform"
Uncheck "Weighted P-Frames"
After those changes, you can save these by clicking on Presets -> Save Preset and name it something like "Transformer". "
This is an exact quote of the post, I don't have the original on hand to thank the original poster. But he does deserve my thanks, as this made 720p video beautiful on my FT101.
Doesn't work so well when streamed via wifi, I think 802.11G is a little too slow, maybe I need to go to 802.11N. Works fine via a portable hard disk, or a microSD card, or even a USB stick. If you have the dock or the usb converter adaptor thingy.
Sorry for those who don't have access to a grunty PC for converting using handbrake, I guess my post isn't much help to you. I'm waiting until I get my TF101 back from a warranty repair to try a few things out, including ICS. I'm currently running Revolver, and I'm VERY happy with it.. kudos GNufabio.

You have over 1000 posts here
You list a ton of devices in your signature(what's the point anyway?)
Yet, you don't know how to reinstall a rom
what the f?
Furthermore, you go on to demand that the person who gave you a nice suggestion should help you even more by holding your hand through the process.
You must be a fat American.

well one person got reported for being a douche.
and yes, i'm well aware of how to flash a rom.
most of us here however are running stock ICS from the update with no root or anything like that. So simply saying reinstall ICS is not a very intelligent statement.
If i have an issue with my nexus i know how to back it up and reinstall because i have CWM installed.
however on this, as i just said, i'm running a totally stock device. i've never rooted, never installed a custom recovery, and i don't want to.
and personally, i also think the suggestion of installing ICS is BS and won't make a difference.
anyway, thank you @squire-au for that. i have seen that post and have been hoping there would be another way since totally encoding can take a very long time. but i will be testing that out overnight to see what happens.

I agree though, 720p is very stuttery now when it was fine before the update.

Audio always out of sync when playing back converted video :(

How can I solve this? Ive converted using MP4ForHD and something else called encoder or something (forgot now). Yet whenever I try to play a video thats been converted for the hd2 specifically, the audio is out of sync. If doesnt happen on videos I record, just others that are converted.]
Might it be the Leo's media player? would anybody recomend using a different media player (free) for the device?
Thanks in advance
~~~BUMPETY!~~~
Please help
I used 4 convertors (handbrake, HD, MP4 and the media coder mentioned in the forum)
all of which will result in out of sync audio.. even while vieweing in computer!!!!

This is a well-established bug which HTC has so far refused to acknowledge. Your best bet is for you and everybody else to keep complaining to HTC tech support until someone higher up gets to hear about it.

What annoys me is not so much the bugs but the impossibility of getting hold of anyone at HTC to tell them about them; there seems to be virtually no communication at all between "tech support" and "head office". The bugs wouldn't be a problem if we could report them and get them fixed, but there isn't anyone we can usefully report them to.

Do the videos in this link play OOS?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5341496&postcount=32
As above, try setting an audio delay when encoding (if you can with whatever software you are using).
Works fine for me.

Hi, erm I think they play correctly, ( I tried the star wars one ) Its hard to tell when theres no lip movement, but yeah it seems right
So do you recomend using those settings in that single thread?
(might I ask you, what starwars thing is that? it looks so epic )
I've raised this issue with HTC support. Clips that are perfectly in sync on the Touch HD2 are out of sync on the HD2. I'll let yout know what they say.

Sure, just go along with kr00t0n's audio delay if my profiles give OOS results.
At least for me, my current setup on that thread gives me the best looking videos without too much fuss. But it also depends on the videos you feed into it. MKVs with dts/vorbis might encounter some problems....if you have those we can talk somemore.
That's Star Wars : The Old Republic iirc....upcoming video game.

Well I have a ton of mkvs lol, but Ive converted most of them to avi already so its not a problem. I tried that method, with your profile with the slight delays ect and it worked great! really high quality as well (Although I couldnt find where to change the FPS to 30)
The only problem was it took about 25 minutes to encode a 20 minute show which is pretty long @[email protected] Especially on a quad core pc
Here are some more 0.400 delayed 720p encodes:

This is why you should turn your pc on in the morning, queue up the videos, start encoding, then go to work, lol!
After some testing, I have found that the resolution of the original video needs to be factored in to the resolution used in WinMEnc.
Most videos are 1280x720, which is 16:9, but 800x480 is 16:10.
This will cause encoded videos to be stretched upwards slightly, or in the case of more cinematic resolutions (the Legion trailer is 1280x608) stretched quite a bit.
Using this website, you can find out what settings you need in WinMEnc.
Find out the original resolution and put it in the lefthand boxes.
Then put 800 in top righthand box, and calculate.
1280x608 needs 800x380 to maintain aspect ratio (no stretching).
I edited the ini to be 800:380, as you can't edit this in WinMEnc itself, save, then load.
Comparisons:
http://www.kr00t0n.com/Kjam/Legion.mp4
http://www.kr00t0n.com/Kjam/Legion800x380.mp4
no sync issues here. I use HDencoder @1000kbit Video 128kbit Audio and check Normalize Audio.
Never had a out of sync problem converting MKV to MP4.
Some MKVs contain an audio delay for specific audio tracks, which most converters cannot read. Have the same problem when converting/muxing MKVs for PS3. Maybe this is your problem here....?!
why bother converting??? just get coreplayer and play avi's....happy days??

absolute best VIDEO player for honeycomb?

So far i have tried rockplayer and moboplayer....rockplayer had a lot of FC's because I don't think it was compatible, plus the video playback kinda sucked
I recently tried Moboplayer and it works great...even saves where you left of on multiple videos
is there anything better? Thank you
i swear by rock player, not an issue yet. Maybe try reinstalling? Other than that, what does it need to be able to play?
Yeah WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER 12 / VLC MEDIA PLAYER.......

Moboplayer seems to have a lot more downloads, hence popularity

Both are made by the same dev of believe. Mobo is much better than rock however. Be sure and have the latest codec pack installed.

Mobo player doesn't dim (and by dim I mean turn them into small dots) the os buttons and time at the bottom, this is the sole reason I am considering uninstalling it, but I haven't found one to beat it yet.
Does it "dim" for anyone else?
Sent from my Xoom using XDA App
I like the way control volume, brightness on moboplayer.
Feature-wise Moboplayer still has a lot of room for improvement. But in terms of codec support and performance (some stuff that wasn't smooth on other players played smooth as silk on Moboplayer), MoboPlayer is my favorite.

yea same here...its very neat
Mobo doesn't play very smoothly in software mode for 720p content... Unfortunately the Xoom doesn't playback enough formats natively so software mode is a necessity...
I swear by MoboPlayer as well, though sometimes I drop back to RockPlayer Lite just to see how it handles things. Love how Mobo remembers where you've left off regardless of how many movies/videos you've watched in between.
On the other side of the spectrum is mVideoPlayer, it has an awesome interface but only supports stock Xoom codecs. They recently updated to support sub/idx support for subs, but that whole stock codec only support kind of ruins it for me. I use this for any YouTube videos pulled w/ TubeMate.
I tested QQPlayer as well, it's not too bad but I was really searching for subtitle support so I could enjoy foreign flicks on the road. It didn't really offer much aside from srt support, but I figure I'll keep it in the hopes it'll see more development in terms of sub support (I believe it's developed in China or Korea, so sub support would have a higher priority).
any players allow you to make playlists? I like to fall asleep with a few episodes of stuff in the background
FWIW -- QQPlayer plays everything that I need it to play....
Vital Player is the best player on honeycomb I love you can turn the volume just using the screen.Same goes for brightness & full and widescreen.Vital Player updates regularly.

Poor quality video with Flash since the update 3.1

Do or problem as well ?
Some streaming site worked well with 3.0.1
...and now the video is degraded with 3.1
I got same problem. Now flash movie on web site not run smooth as 3.01.
my personal experience is the opposite, like no question here at all, on 3.0.1 i would get stutters and laggy playback, and since the 3.1 update i have seen literally no lag or stuttering playing back 720p on imbedded video playback, youtube, anything. i keep seeing all these issue posts and threads about the 3.1 update but i am personally not experiencing any of them, my browser is an snappy as my ipad's browser, games/video playback anywhere (any quality) is perfect, navigation of any part of the os is snappier than before, battery life is exactly the same, i am happy with everything, i just want to be able to root 3.1 without adb and ill be 100% happy..

Why are you watching youtube using flash when we have an app that lets us view the video using hardware acceleration?
flash seems to have improved for me
My Flash has gotten so much worse in both the stock Browser and Dolphin that I have gone back to using my ipad1 whenever I want to access a site that has an ios version. It's strange that the degradation is only when you use the browser, not an app.

i did not factory reset, but i havent ever rooted because i wanted the 3.1 update from asus and i read about some disadvantages in primordial, but i really didnt do anything special, just the official update, and i definately meant youtube specifically from the youtube app itself, but from the browser streaming and playing 720p from imbedded videos and/or other means than youtube hasnt lagged on me either (yet** i dont have the invincible tf), the one video "provider" that just plain doesnt work is vimeo for me, i think its a flash 10.3 issue or something because when hitting play the box goes black and never plays. i was just relaying my experience, i think after an update or 2 honeycomb is really going to make apple nervous though
I can't watch ESPN videos anymore. Does anyone know why? I think it was a result of Flash 10.2 and not Honeycomb 3.1. I've done some searches, but I haven't found anything really for the transformer.
Does anyone else have this problem? It just shows up as a picture and never plays video.

you do not know that the net uses a lot of flash video with the same cuts completely different? Flash knows how to manage everything by cons if the hardware part is not done properly, Flash is degraded.
This is Flash movie with 3.0.1 and after ! 3.1
If you understand what I see.
Yes youtube work fine, but not all websites.
can you post a link to that video so we can try the same one please
no, it's a subscription service
Mine was choppy before on 3.01 and still is on 3.1, no change it seems, sux
the above pictures highlight the problem perfectly, i have a second batch transformer and upgraded after first boot to 3.1 i was also thinking steve jobs was right re flash my ipad1 pisses all over my transformer, in every video test ive done, granted its rooted\jailbroken but at this moment apart from the dull UI the only thing it cant do is read anything over a 1 gig usb stick or sd card for movies. I now find it incredible how slick the ipad is with only 256mb ram. Even google are working away from flash. Still loving my transformer, but so wanted it to be everything my desire hd is compared to the iphone 4. I have even found my self going back to my ipad for invoicing and word processing, pages and numbers are slick. Come on google, this thing has loads of horse power and is running like a vw beatle.

Just a quick note to the above, i have just uninstalled flash 10.3 and adobe air and my tablet is running as fast as my ipad, html5 videos are working, flash is definatley buggy on honeycomb. Even when plugins were enabled on demand it was slow. Going to have acplay with a few options.
Hello,
Following the problems encountered, I wrote the team has adobe flash. After several exchanges of mail, they understood the problem. The person I spoke with said he passed the baton to the service of development, and they would arrange to get a tablet asus to see what happens.
Hi,
That's very helpful, thanks for the information. It's definitely something we want to look into.
I've opened a bug, and I have an email into our customer engineering team to try and get a tablet to test with.

new Flash Update in market dont get excited

dont get to excied with the newest update from adobe flash, everything still lags and no changelog included
i thought the latest version of honeycomb was supposed to enable hardware acceleration for flash? Seems no different to me or maybe flash adverts run smoother..had a Toshiba folio which was running 2.2 back in November last year. Flash seems to have not really improve since then. To be honest I am getting sick of waiting and wonder if this is down to limitations of the tegra chip again? I want to be able to watch BBC I player in HD. Just stutters. Definately think if the frame rate improved it would look amazing on the transformer. Standard play black looks very pixelated. Ipad performance in term of playback is miles better on the Iplayer site (know the BBC would of optimised performance for the ipad) whole point of having flash on a tablet is sites like Iplayer should run smooth without special support.
i dont have laggy flash...?

Have i tried maximising the screen? Yes it makes playback even worse lol. Flash is pants, works for adverts and SD video if you are lucky again thought 3.1 was going to enable harware acceleration.

Hmmmmm. Most posts I have read disagree. You Tube only works smoothly via the app. I player is smooth but only when watching Sd video. If you try and stream anything HD it falls over.. You have to change the settings in your browser to appear as a desktop otherwise the bbc website defaults to mobile and all content is standard definition. Things like the BBC HD channel won't even be listed. Sorry the other person who posted that flash performance on the Asus was just as good as their desktop must have a poo PC........

The test video does not load. I have a 30 mb broadband connection but it is only showing just over 3mbps for utube speed average and my connection to the router is 72 mbps which i thought is fairly good. May have a quick play with my wireless router.
For those with flash lags, what site(s) is this happening on? I'd love to test them out. Flash has been quite solid, but it's not working on the browers I use (Firefox, Opera, etc.).

No lag here.
There's no lag with 420p were getting lag with 720p wich was supposed to be fixed in 3.1 and it was clearly not
Well i read this could be an issue with my ISP virgin media. However, not sure how likely this is my PC performance with both youtube and iplayer is excellent. Unless this is a specific issue with android and my router which is possible. Sorry can I check again can anyone in the uk access BBC Iplayer with watchable playback in HD? Could be a wider issue with some types of routers. Anyone getting more than a 72mbps connection speed to their router.

My biggest disappointment with my 3.1 TF is that it does not play flash videos properly, via any of the browsers.

I see what you mean. For that site, I would either have to say the problems are coming from the unconventionl player they are using or perhaps the streams are coming from overseas.
Does that page play well on a computer?

I haven't got my TF with me, but it runs fine on a macbook.

Video playback in cm9

Hey guys!! First post but im daily xda atrix forum visitor. Anyway, I installed the new cm9 beta 5.0 yesterday. It works great and I love it (thanks jokersax!!). I have been goin back and forth between cm9 and cm7 for the past 3 months. I love cm9 but there was always a couple a nagging issues that prevented it from being my daily, therefore, I always reverted to çm7. I thought this version cm9 was going to be my daily; up until an hour ago. Playback of videos are bjorked. Videos that have been working perfectly fine in previous versions of cm9 are so sloe and choppy in 5.0.
Sorry for the long post but any advice would be appreciated. Btw I spent the last hour searching the boards and Google but did not find anything. Sorry in advance if this has been posted before.
TIA!!!

Use MX Player with software decoding. Hardware video decoding on ICS is borked until we get proper drivers.
OK thanks! I figured that was the case. The only reason I asked is that I could've sworn playback was working on previous versions on cm9. OK thanks bro!!
On a side note. What is the video recording app everyone is using since thats been borked for a while and does Skype video chat work?

Videos never worked properly even in the previous versions. No skype video doesn't work.

Thanks for the quick reply!!! When trying to do Max players code I get this error: "incompatible with other applications using the same shared user id"
I looked everywhere an couldnt find an answer.
Thanks guys

Uninstall older versions first. If that doesn't work, try clearing market data.
Skype and GTalk video chat don't work, but Tango definitely does. just FYI.

I got same thing on MX 1.6. Fixed for me by downloading to PC from MX website, transferring files to phone, and installing from phone afterwards.

thanks but mxplayer still was extremely choppy (with soft decoding enabled) and i tried mobo player and put it on soft decoding and the videos are also very choppy. i guess all type of video playback is borked in cm9

Hmmm... I'm getting fairly good results with MX Player. But I re-encode my videos for the Atrix's screen size (max. 960x540, if source is smaller, keep source resolution). 720p (and up) movies are still choppy. I guess our CPU can't handle decoding HD resolution movies using software only.

oooo ok i see what ur talkin bout. im sorry i wasnt clear enough. i was talkin about playing my videos that i shot with the video camera (before i had cm9). although i guess it would be the same thing. i shot those videos in 1080p so i guess like you said the cpu cant handle it. that stinks! i was hoping to play my videos to family when i get back to NYC. i could always save the vidz on my computer then re-encode them i guess.
o well, thanks again!!!
