[Q] wathing hd films on x8. - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all xda members.I have a question about watching hd films on x8.Can i watch hd films (720p,1020p),when i can whith app is best for this.
Thanks for repiles.

I dont think so, maybe it will play but will be laggy. Try resizing the movie first. Theres a lot of converters out there.
For the apps I recommend MOBO player.

20-23 max, if you can overclock to 800mhz 25-26 max

Thanks for fast help.

There is really no point in playing HD video on X8, because on 360p screen (480x360), you obviously can't watch 720p (1024x720) or 1080p (1920x1080) in their real resolutions
so for an example:
if you have one video in 360p, 720p and 1080p, and let's say that you want to watch this video on a device that supports 1080p but it has 360p screen (like X8),
you will end up with that, that you can't distinguish 360p from 1080p video
so my advice would be for you to resize it to 360p, put FPS on 20-23, maintain the sound quality, and that is as much as you can get on X8 regarding playing videos

use popular converter such as FormatFactory.
MP4 DivX Codec
480x320 WxH
20-30 FPS
Birate: 580KiB/s or higher until 2500KiB/s
Audio AAC
128 KiB/s

I never actually tried playing HD vids on my X8 before cuz I I know it will lag, but I think all the apps I would of recommended have already been mentioned

Thanks now i resize films for my x8 in format factory and give 20-23-30 fps,360p.

You can edit FPS when you're encoding video. You can't choose FPS in games.

there is absoletely no way? even a pay one, like armv7-armv6?
when you make a game dont you set the values of fps? so cant we edit it?

[Q] Flash 11 slower than 10.3

Anyone notice that after updating Adobe Flash to 11 from 10.3 video playback seems more choppy?
I can barely play 480 line videos now.
I use 10.3.185.25. It's the only one that will play online video using cm7 based roms
11.1 can play on miui, but have several problems , even with 10.3, adobe and flash sucks

Where can I find that version ?
I'm now using 10.3.186.7, downgraded and haven't looked back.
Sure, its not the greatest but 11 is total ballz.
Just do a search for "Adobe Flash 10.3 apk" eventually you'll hit x.186.7
The best version for me is com.adobe.flashplayer.v10.2.157.51.apk. But I still can't play 720p videos smooth, on youtube from browser. Can somebody help with that? if it's possibile.

Your device wouldn't benifit from playing it in 720 so wtf would be the point, best your small screen would do is 480.

There is a diffrence is in the coding i think. 720p looks better eventhough the screen is only 480p.

Lol....no.
@Forforce when you connect via hdmi the image is upscaled very well you would not notice the difference between 480 upscaled and 720 besides that the roms that do support 720 flash in the browser still don't do it very well so performance will still be choppy and isn't worth using 720 over 480. Maybe ICS will change somethings and support it better but i doubt it.

Not supported with stock player and with mx only s/w not h/w. So basically not supported from ob's hardware.

I don't know much about technical and stuff about phones but i guess if lg releases ics sometime with new ti drivers for the ti omap 3630 then it may be able to play the other videos you uploaded.. don't know for sure though. Please don't flame me..

Try MediaCoder on PC to convert movies. It can convert almost everything to everything. Not too easy to use, but if you get used to the software, it will be a walk in the park.
Oh, yes, not to mention that it is a FREE software!

Though videos must be 480p for smooth playing

Absolutely yes, its faster and detects more codecs
Format factory.
If you want an High Quality & High Compression video....
Use Handbrake to convert it.
Just rename this user_presets.txt file into .xml & paste it into C:\Users\"Username"\AppData\Roaming\HandBrake\ after installed handbrake.
Drag n drop video into handbrake, Click another preset & click back the X8 Xperia Preset & add it to queue, Then start the encoding.
Or just use this parameter
weightp=0:subq=10:rc-lookahead=10:trellis=2:cabac=0:8x8dct=0:me=esa:bframes=0:ref=12sy-rd=2.00,0.00:analyse=all:merange=32

Remember its running ICS on a 600mhz Processor, with 512 Ram and almost no power behind the Adreno 200....
Suggestion is to get something that is made to play videos or.... re size the videos with a converter to a less demanding format / definition.

Yea I realise it's not very powerful so it's not gonna play any high quality videos. I mainly just watch music vids on YouTube but I've just noticed generally videos don't look very good when compared to my old x8 but I guess the different screen size might have something to do with it.

Spot on my friend and the best bit, the X8 had a better processor etc haha ^__^
Its not just the screen, its how quick the processor is aswell to process data thats downloaded etc, in the form of videos.
Mine plays SD videos(600xYYY; 700xYYY etc.) quite good. Only problem are mkv videos, I guess the CPU is too weak to decode them properly.
I'm using MX player or BS Player with ARMv7 codecs.

I've always wondered why people would wanna play movies with resolutions that exceed the resolution of the mobile display itself... You would get better picture quality playing a video on the device native's resolution. And of course reduce the load on the CPU saving battery....

For who suggests to enable force gpu rendering, thanks but it doesn't work. Even restarting the phone.
For who wonder why I try to play a 1080p on s advance its why I have a friend with a samsung S II and another with samsung S III and if they send me their camera video via Bluetooth, my Samsung S advance play only audio! Ok I pay less I get less but its really so different hardware? I wonder why? Gpu, codec, a simple boolean switch.

Buddy it's your lucky day... i have been in shoe's for a long time and got fed up by the suggestion that "why would i want to play 1080p on a 4 inch screen" why don't people get the question i was asking them about ''how to play'', not about will it look great on my screen...
any way after trying about a dozen player i finally got to play 1080p using dice player:laugh:
i played many 1080p videos with medium to high bit rates...hope this will work for you...
Ps: in dice player the videos are shown to be HW decoded but playing them will make your battery back up/charge drop like "Turkey's in thanks giving" Damn i always wanted to use that line:laugh:
Hit thanks if i helped you..and help others who are in need of it
atheesh
Try BS player. Working great for me.but sometimes u will get only audio, no video, but when u try to play it again, it will play.
Best player for 1080p on S advance.
