My Samsung Galaxy s2 Stock Media Player dosent play ac3 Audi files or Mp4 FIles with Ac3 audio decoded. I was able to play those using Dice player or rockplayer.
The official Samsung Site or other specification says this (This is from Wikipedia)
For audio it supports (FLAC, WAV, Vorbis, MP3, AAC, AAC+, eAAC+, WMA, AMR-NB, AMR-WB, MID, AC3, XMF). For video formats and codecs it supports (MPEG-4, H.264, H.263, DivX HD/XviD, VC-1) and video formats (3GP (MPEG-4), WMV (ASF) as well as AVI (DivX)).

Issues:

1. Stock Media Player dosent play ac3 Audi files or Mp4 FIles with Ac3 audio decoded (Stock Media Player gives the Option 5.1 to be enabled but ac3 not playing)
2. Other players play it Under software decoding, But main Problem is 5.1 isn't working with Head phones
I googled and found some Users were able to Play it with stock media Players. Read something like "I dont have any problem playing those files, I just copy and play them"

Great app but it's no longer available on the market

Anyone know why the full version is now available and how to install the app having paid for it when it was available?

Free version shows
*** Currently can not purchase the full version because the checkout account is suspended.

This is the only video player I found that could playback 720p mkv through dnla on my Samsung Galaxy S. Here's my setup.

Samsung Galaxy S / Skifta / Diceplayer (Full purchased off the market in Nov 2011)
Server running Serviio dnla server

1080p stutters but I think that is down to the single core in the Galxy S. 720p smooooth.

I paid £3.35 in Nov for the full version of Diceplayer from the market but I now need to reistall since changing rom but can't download from the market?

I didn't backup my apps with titanium before doing the upgrade or I could restore app only.

Any ideas?

I have emailed the developer with my receipt but have received no reply.

cheers
