Which Mali Video Processor does the Galaxy A30 have? - Samsung Galaxy A30 Questions & Answers

Hello everyone
I know that the chipset in the Galaxy A30 is an Exynos 7904 (edit: some seem to have a 7885 instead), and that it contains a Mali-G71 MP2, but that is independent of the version of the hardware decoder (Mali Video Processor) they put in.
So what I would like to know is: Which Mali Video Processor does the Galaxy A30 have?
According to Samsung the Exynos 7904 (edit: the 7885 as well) can do the following encoding and decoding:
"Up to 4K 30fps encoding and decoding with HEVC(H.265), H.264 and VP8, and decoding with VP9"
So it should be a Mali-V61 or a Mali-V52 or a Mali-V76. Does anyone know which one it is?
Alternatively, can anyone share experiences on whether they managed to decode H.265, 10bit color, 1080p, 30FPS in real time with the hardware decoder?
Thank you.

Galaxy Tab S 10.5 and 10 bit videos

Hi
Please somebody confirm is Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 capable of playing 1080p 10 bit (mostly anime) videos?
(please also include info what player you have used, mode of playback, hardware, sowftware, version of a tablet etc)
I am really interested in buying this tablet and the screen is just gorgeous but I am also an anime fan and would like to watch my anime in the highest possible quality on it.
Thanks

Bump!
I'm considering getting one of the Tabs to avoid carrying my -huge- laptop to watch stuff in other rooms. Also, maybe there's a difference between exynos vs snapdragon regarding video playback capability. Any input appreciated!
And just to confirm... from what I've been reading, T700=Exynos and T705=Snapdragon? there's no T705-Exynos based?

I have yet to see the first Snapdragon for the Tab S series, all of them have been Exynos, i believe that they might use Snapdragon in the NA models to come around november to Verizon and T-Mobile but right now, the LTE and WiFi versions T700-705-800 and 805 are using Exynos.
Video playback has been smooth on my T705 (lossless 1080 flac).

So T700 is Exynos-wifi, and T705 Exynos-LTE.... if they finally roll out Snapdragon based TABs, there should be a new model number, right?
I tried a Hi10P video on a Snapdragon600 based S4 mobile and playback was very choppy -using BSPlayer-, do you know if there's 10bit HW decoding support on the Exynos running the new TABs?

What player were you using? SW or HW decoding? Prolly in SW decoding mode any of these won't be able to produce smooth playback and from what a quick reading on the specs and a couple of sites, the Mali GPU on the Exynos SoC would not support 10bit video decoding... so if I'm not wrong, there goes my hope...

There's no GPU, PC or mobile, that supports hi10p decoding. That said, I have a hard time believing that the Tab S wouldn't be able to play 1080p hi10p videos smoothly as my old Nexus 10 with a far slower CPU almost pulls that off and my Z1c with a Snapdragon 800 plays them smoothly (granted, it's a much lower resolution screen but still) with MX Player.
I've put a test video in the link below that people can try to see if it plays smoothly. MX Player is recommended.

Lol full metal alchemist... love the anime... it play fine on my tab s 8.4 with bsplayer and its extra 7arm codec.
Mxplayer was ok last time but now since they lose some codec due to licensing issue some of the high quality video just play choppy since its use sw mode only.
Btw the tab s also lacking some codec. Dont know why samsung left out some of the codec although the device are capable.

HW wasnt supported. so it was SW.
It's working just fine on my tab 10.5 exynos processor. However i had to turn off all the codec codes and run on pure hardware acceleration for it to work. Goes to show the exynos processor can play videos just fine without any hardware codec or software aid.

I wouldn't know about the Mali GPU capabilities, but I also thought a Snapdragon800 should be able to playback Hi10p, hence I was interested on getting the 'supposed' Snapdragon version of the Tab S 8.4.
The new Mali -T764- though, seems to support 10bit decoding and H265/HEVC, so I was kinda hoping the T628 Mali would do also 10bit decoding...

I hadn't read you... so you got that Hi10p sample that CazeW posted playing back smoothly? which player did you use?
That clip played fine on my 10.5 thru BS Player but SW mode only. All my 1080p rips play in HW mode so not sure... This is still a great device for multimedia.
I use a media player that is banned by ios and android called xbmc or soon to be renamed to kodi. The best media player ever!
It runs great on either software or hardware accelerometer alone.

Where do you guys get these 10bit Anime series from. I normally stream them from Anime.fullfights so quality is never really HD (it says 720p but most likely a bit compressed)

General torrent sites or dedicated anime trackers.
BTW i just bought a Tab s8.4 today, and tried the sample straight away using vlc, smooth playback, will try with the video I could not play with an galaxy s4, which is higher bitrate, if it plays back I would be officially in love with the thing.
No luck, tried a high bitrate video (with embedded subtitles), the same I used on the Galaxy S4, and it plays better but is still unwatchable Both with VLC and KmPlayer. I will install xbmc and BSPlayer tonight but I fear the results will be the same :/

Hi eousphoros, last night I tried with MX Player, HW+ mode did not work, but software&multi core mode seemed to play it back about fine, not absolutely perfect, but watchable, as soon as I flash a custom kernel a play with settings a bit I'm sure it will improve the missing -tiny- bit. Thanks for the tip. Will try also BS-Player&XBMC.

[Q] Does the Z1 support H265 / HEVC

Hi,
I was pretty sure the Snapdragon 800 has support for HEVC/H265 decoding.
Now I googled a little and some articles said yes and some said no.
Playing back a HEVC Video with MX also used the software decoder, so does it really not support it?
Regards

Does Note 8 support h.265 UHD video recording?

I've read Snapdragon can't do this, while Exynos should be capable. Is there an option to choose the video recording codec (interested in UHD specifically)?
I believe the zero cam mod w/ app purchase can do it. Need to be rooted though.

H.265 10bit hardware acceleration support ?

Is A30 with exynos 7904 support h.265 / x265 10bit video hardware acceleration ?

General [CLOSED] Finally Enabled 4K_(2160p) and 2K_(1440p) @24FPS Playback For SM6225

NOTE *To those who say 4K and 2K on 1080p doesn't make difference*
Why 4K?
1.While watching 1920x1080p Youtube videos in Full Screen Mode you need to zoom-in as that you loose some quality and not utilizing your FHD+(2400x1080p) display to full range.
2.Gives more detail and prevent loss of quality while zooming in for Full Screen Mode in Youtube or MX player.
3.Snapdragon 675 was having 4K Support so why not SD680 being senior in number by +5.
4K_(2160p) Playback is an artificial limitation for SD680
here's why?
SM6225 reffers to SD680 and SD665 :
Both Soc having 4+4 Cortex A73 and A53 and Adreno™ 610 GPU, the difference between SD680 and SD665 is in processing node 6nm Vs 11nm and 2400MHz boost on A73 Vs 2000MHz and 1900MHz boost on A53 Vs 1700MHz and 1114 MHz GPU Freq Vs 650MHz with improved arm design and optimized ISP and new Vk & Egl drivers.
Okay, if SD665 previously support 4K_(2160p) on "Redmi Note 8" Ginko why not SD680 should support 4K_(2160p) on "Redmi Note 11" Spes.
QUALCOM did this to differenciate 600 and 700 series Soc cuz 695 was performing better then 720G or 732G, if a user get everything on 600 series why anyone or OEM's would preffer 700 series ! just think about it___
* IMP NOTE*
1.Adding 4K buffer on stock Youtube apk Jitters on [email protected] and [email protected] FPS Videos and cause Resolution Drop isuess on [email protected] FPS videos to 1440p......it is adviced to use Youtube Revanced, Youtube Vanced or any other Youtube Mode apk..
2.Currently the FPS on 4K and 2K resolution is limited to 24 only so you will only able to play [email protected] or [email protected] on Youtube Revanced, Youtube Vanced or any other Youtube Mode apk......if you try to play [email protected] or [email protected] the resolution of watching video will drop to 480p.
!____ SOON RELEASING THE MODULE ___!
*keep tracking this thread....once betatesting is over the module will be out
