Supposedly it does support 4K playback at main profile.
Qualcomm's marketing does say yes.
I don't have any content so I'm not sure about codecs an players.

I am running the latest HyperDroid-CM7. Which video players (are there any) support hardware decode? If there are any, which codecs are supported for hardware decode?
I've been encoding in H.264 via Handbrake but I'm getting lots of stuttering in the players I've tried. If I need to try a different format, I just need to know which one(s).
Stock video player, RockPlayer, MoboPlayer etc.
Practically any player can play in HW mode. Just make sure to enable Hardware Decoder in settings
I am using MoboPlayer and there is an option in settings called "Default Using Soft Decoding". It was _not_ checked. I checked it an now I'm getting much smoother playback.
Did I just _enable_ software decode? If so, why is it playing better?
I think I'm not understanding something here.
As far as I know, HD2 doesn't have hw support for H.264 but for H.263. So when converting your movies in Handbrake, use H.263 as output.
I swapped ROMs to NexusHD2-Gingerbread and now MoboPlayer is working much better than it did under HyperDroid. I think it might have been a HyperDroid issue.
Try diceplayer.
Mobo/Rock/VPlayer can't play MKV(+DTS) in hw decoder mode.
diceplayer can play MKV/M2TS/AVI using hw decoder.

For anyone else interested in this:
diceplayer is indeed good, play flawless video with hardware decoding
Hi,
anyone else having trouble with mkv files with AC3 audio?
Tried MX player, BSplayer and vlc.
MX player has no sound and smoth in HW and sound in SW (audio only) but really choppy.
BSplayer won't play in hw at all and vlc has horrible quality (artifacts).
Is that working for anyone or is that a general problem? (codec?)
Anything that i can try?
thanks
Try sending the MX Player dev a message mentioning the problem, it's likely something to do with the cutting edge hardware in there not being 100% supported just yet. MX Player is a great app, and I'm sure the N10 will be supported in no time at all.

I am using MX for MKV with AC3 - in the Decoder tab in settings, set the decoder to HW+ and in the Software decoder section, tick the box 'S/W audio' to force software decoding for Audio - then you should get smooth HW accelerated video playback with soft-decoded audio.
I also use MX with EZ Usenet to stream these types of files directly from Easynews, and it works perfectly with HW+ setting, software for audio
tried using a vlc nightly? What version did you use?
VLC: used the armv7-android-neon nightly from 2 or 3 days ago
MX: with hw+ its stutters even worse than with hw when i have software audio
i stream directly from files on my computer, can that be the cause?
VLC works intermittently for me and MX Player works pretty good, the only issue I've had is what seems like missing frames or slow playing video but then the audio is ok. To me VLC seems smoother but it's very tempremental.

is that a general assessment or specifically to AC3?

No problem use a custom code:
"Custom Codec v1.7.32 is fully compatible with MXPlayer 1.7.33
As Usual supports all codecs incl DTS & DOLBY (AC3)
(Old Custom Codecs are not compatible with the latest MXPlayer v1.7.33...!!)"
P.S. the version of MX Player that has AC3 support removed is v1.7.33 so you need to at least refresh the codec you have installed or install the latest ones.
Here is the post with all the various devices compatible custom codecs and installation instructions. I just did a successful before and after test. After installing this AC3 audio is a non-issue.
Too bad both the owners of DTS and AC3 need to such dicks about their decoding software. I have no issue when they charge for encoding.
MX AC Problem
Hi, I just wanted to say thank you. You guys worked successful and it is easy to follow through. Thanks once again. I am Karuhiu from Kenya

None of the available soc support h.265.
So it can only be played via s/w codecs. And s/w decoding for h.265 is not optimum. You will experience lags and out of sync audio.
So there is no way to play hevc efficiently on Android.

try cm 12 ,I tried it h265 are playing very smooth
Try BSPlayer. Its h/w decoder is more efficient than MXPlayer's.

By default H265 is disabled. BSPlayer -> Preferences -> Playback Preferences -> Codecs played in HW mode -> Check "HEVC/H265"
....and make sure you are using HW decoder (Decoding mode >> 3rd option)

this codec is for to support ac3 and dolby audio
H.265 is tricky because many video players which claim they support this video codec failed playing it as tll. My way to play H.265 video is to save it to more commonly H.264 MP4 with Pavtube, the playback with VLC or WMP is great.
Lemme clear this .. Actually in cm12 r is working properly which is bugfree but in cm12.1 nuplayer is faulty thats y it lags .. Wait for its fix and x265 will be played smoothly on cm12.1 too.. U can see it in developers ie use nu player instead of awesome player

Few media players online can afford H.265 directly. You'd better encode H.265 into H.264 mp4 first so that you can play the videos.
Hi
is the phone capable of hardware decoding h265 videos?
please try http://www.libde265.org/hevc-bitstreams/bbb-1920x1080-cfg06.mkv ( dowload it first)
with mxplayer in hw or hw+ mode ( not sw mode)
does it stutter ?
you can also try http://www.libde265.org/hevc-bitstreams/bbb-3840x2160-cfg02.mkv , but it is a 4k maybe too heavy for the phone
thanks
I'm unable to play the first file with either mx player or bsplayer.
HW mode black screen, HW+ extreme lag. SW similar (maybe 0.1x speed).
Thanks
It is Strange.. look at this http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2mETT1RlX38

We probably need to download that codec in the description and point MX player to use it.
The first video works in VLC - better than on my Core 2 Windows even - but still get slow down in many scenes.
H265 hardware support will be hit or miss for a while, and sadly may never catch on due to the patent holders starting licencing shenanigans. See the article in the link

Please ,
import this codec to mx player and try.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/mx-player/mx-player-custom-codec-dts-support-t2156254

evem nexus player ( same gpu as this phone) play h265 https://www.google.it/url?url=http:...D835Wg&usg=AFQjCNFNXj03opshGE1Ti5gmGlIW4Rohig
Hi,
I have a OP5 (5.1.7) and when I play a .mkv video HEVC/10bit using HW+ with MX Player the audio works fine but the video keeps black all the time, just works with software decoding.
OP5 does not support HEVC/10bit decoding?

Do you have installed the codec for mx player? Or just use vlc, it should play it.
Yes, I installed the codec for MX Player, but didn't work.
And I tried others players like VLC, KM, BS, Kodi.....
but didn't work too.
Writing this for all the people finding this thread in Google
I got 10bit 4K H265 working on my Oneplus 5 in Kodi (no stutters) by doing this:
(I'm using the Estouchy skin, you can swap to it in settings > interface)
Go to settings > player
Click on the settings cog in the bottom right
Click on the Standard option until it says expert
Scroll down to the processing section (this is in the videos tab btw)
Turn off "Allow hardware acceleration - MediaCodec (surface) and keep the other hardware acceleration one on.
Enjoy your 10bit content!
