Anyone get .wmv or .wma files to work

I downloaded vplayer beta on my Evo and it works great. Tried it on the nook and it doesnt work. Anyone get anything done???

I used Zimly to get around this on my HTC. Just tried it and it does not work with wma files.
I have used mcebuddy to transcode mediacenter tv programs to generic mp4. it works with the nook stock player, but not zimly...

I have successfully played .wmv with yxplayer. It's not free however.

yx has very mixed reviews... how is it on your nc?

It works ok. But I only have 1 wmv file.

just tried winamp... that didn't work either, though at least it could read the tags. yx has such terrible reviews that I don't want to go there.

RockPlayer
The best media player I have found to run on my Nook Color is the RockPlayer. I have not tried .WMA or .WMV files on it but it is very good with .AVI, etc.
A brief description of a recent release, that I found on the web, reads as follows:
"RockPlayer is a powerfull media player for android phones, it offers support for a wide range of video formats which includes AVI, MKV, RMVB, MP4, FLV, 3GP, MOV, WMV, ASF, RV40, DivX, Xvid, and H.264."
I believe I downloaded my copy from The Android Market.

Rock player works for many different formats. I have played .avi files perfectly almost as good as my home dvd player. However .wmv didnt work correctly. I redownloaded Vplayer it seems they did a little tweaking and I played 2 .wmv files that were email attachments that i downloaded to the nook perfectly....

[Q] Best Media Player for X1???

Anybody knows about a Media player which can be used as an alternative to the Windows Media player for PPC...
I have tried the TCPMP and Core Player...but both of them are having lags while playing videos...

Well, i think it's time to confirm that the built-in Windows Media Player is still the best Media Player for X1...

Well for music, PocketMusic is the best. Has a lot of options and customizability, and tons of equalizer effects to choose from and doesn't lag at all.
For video, Core Player is probably the best, however it doesn't lag for me at all so it depends on what version you're using. I'm using the latest btw.
Or, you can give SmartMovie player a try. Other than that, TCPMP is the other option which you've already tried.......so ya there aren't much you can choose from for Windows Mobile unfortunately.
Oh and if you want to play .avi videos then try Divx Mobile player too. But that sucks.

you can convert the vidio first to mp4 or to 3gp first with xilisoft or Super converter video... in desktop computer...

yes, but I would also like to do direct streaming from my dreambox to my Xperia, in this case the player should be already installed on the phone...

[Q] Can't find a good video player...

I have tried VPlayer as well as a couple others which I can't remember the names right now.
But nothing seems to work to watch movies on.
Can anyone suggest a good player that will work on the Streak 7?

i had the same problem, i now use coreplayer on windows mobile or rockplayer for andriod. both of these can play most files downloaded of the net and drag and dropped onto your sd card

I use Media Player Pro

Video Player
I have been using Vital Player. It is free on the Market.

+1 for rockplayer. My son watches his movies with it great player.

Movies on galaxy tab

I am relatively new to android from a blackberry. I have a verizon galaxy tab and I have downloaded ttorrent in the market and when I download movies (so far I have tried avi and mp4 format) and try to view them they do not play with the media player and I do not get an error message it just goes to a black media player screen and doesnt play. I have tried implayer and arcmedia media players in the market and when I try to play the files it plays but with no sound and says I need to download coral player at real.coralplayer.com which apparently is a media player for a comp. Am I doing something wrong or does anyone have any advice on what media player to use. Or if anyone has any recommenda rt ions on apps that allow you to download movies and watch (preferably free). Thanks

Generally i dont encourage piracy so i will assume that you legally own these movies (read forum rules). Bottomline you cant watch this movie until you convert them into friendly format for the galaxy tab.
Follow this guide: http://www.thetechjournal.com/how-to/convert-and-watch-movies-on-samsung-galaxy-tabhow-to.xhtml

It should play just fine, no need off a other player, the stock one is as good and even better then the one's you find at market.
Just be shore that it not have DTS,DD audio, because Galaxy tab can't handle that audio.

Unless the Verizon one is crippled, those files should play just fine as the tab supports DivX, mp3, h264 and AAC among the other things. Could be an audio issue, but honestly i have trouble imagining an avi with an audio stream that's more than stereo. Then again, i've seen some of the weirdest stuff, like an h264 video inside an avi...

I used this workflow to convert some of the Blu-ray rips we have on our HTPC, as well as converting a few SD movies, worked perfectly for my tab. Movies play in stock apps.

From a quick Google, if you are being asked to download CoralPlayer, then the movies you are downloading are not actually usable, and you are being scammed.

What application allows us to download paid movies similar to iTunes? I have an iPad but prefer to use my Tab for watching flicks instead?

Thanks for the info. After further te st ting the only movies that seem to play for me.so far are mp4 movies. I have been using t torrent to dl movies. Anyone else have any other recommended apps through market.

Try installing mvideoplayer and vitalplayer. Those two should play everything else.

Dude you were so right...this is by far the best player out there right now! Thanks for the tip!

mobo player is very nice...one fantastic feature is that is sizes the video to the full screen. I was watching avatar on my train ride and the stock video player had it centered and not full screen....finished watching it wtih mobo!
thanks for the tip.

check diceplayer on market (GB required )
you can play 1080p MKV+DTS(or Flac/Ogg)

Here are top 5 Android movie APPs for movie lovers. You can use some of these APP to download or watch movies on Galaxy tab conveniently: " Netflix (free, streaming: US only)", "IMDb Movies & TV (free)", "VLC Direct Pro ($2.86)", "Movie Collection (free, ad-less version for $2.99)" and "GetGlue (free)". In addition, you also can rip DVD TO GALAXY TAB, but you need to consider the issue of legality. Good Luck !

Mobo player is great.
It now has support for subtitles within MKV containers without having to extract them. subtitles are great for foreign movies or for the hearing impaired and anime.
It also supports selecting audio track from within the container file. ie, Eng, JP audio track selection. I see a bright future for this app.

[Q] Best video player for Anime?

Hi all,
Just wondering what video player apps (free/paid) that's best for playing ANIME with Subtitle? (similar to PC's Media Player Classic thingy?able to choose audio and subtitle?)
Not sure anyone has hobby like mine, but I do carry some anime with me on my SD Card to watch on the go on my previous PDA (HTC KAISER) and it plays perfectly. (althou some doesn't have subtitle)
Anyone have similar situation and some advise to this android newbie?
17/02/2012 updates: (tested anime with .mkv files)
***Tried MoboPlayer 1.2.200 - great at playing the videos, but no subtitle
***Tried Mobo Video Player Pro v1.0.6 - laggy when playing anime, no subtitle
Regards,

Try either Dice or mVideo player, both work well with anime.

MX Video Player ( https://market.android.com/details?id=com.mxtech.videoplayer.ad and its codec pack at https://market.android.com/details?id=com.mxtech.ffmpeg.v7_neon ) has worked just peachy for me. It does have support for multiple streams et. al., and it's also plenty fast, too.

MX Player all the way! ever since i discovered it it's been my only video player! love it

VLC is in my humble opinion the better choice.

MX Player is the best ! I watch only anime & it has never let me down even once. The new HW+ decoder works wonders :thumbup:

Why don't you try my anime player and downloader? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43351881#post43351881)
It won't let you down

BS Player
BS Player
It's free and has all the codecs you'll ever need built in.
MX Player was my player of choice until they had problems securing MKV codec and others.
If you want something that plays practically all file types, is free and lightweight, then BS Player is the one.
Find it on the Play Store.
(I can't add the link, it is against XDA rules, sorry.)

Im using ARCHOS video Player on my GNOTE

How do you organize pdfs? Pdfs are the bane of the organized people. You need to put them in a site, or a subfolder, with all the files similar, yet you also can't have duplicated pdfs.
