MoboPlayer updated with Tegra 2 support
- Thread starter keitht
- Start date
Hmm I just re-downloaded Moboplayer with the codec it recommended from the market and now sound isn't working on anything...
I haven' tried a MKV yet but I will in a few, the market download gave me the same issue with no sound so I uninstalled everything and did a manual codec install from within mobo ... working perfect now 
just tried with a downloaded MKV of a TV show...
Video played, but no audio. VIdeo was a little jerky...
here is the file info per MediaInfo..

I think this is an Android limitation rather than a Tegra 2 issue. Either way its hit and miss for me. One enccoder works flawlessly at 4500 while anything encoded by handbrake at that bit rate is choppy.
I thinking the "base only" profile was an h.264 limit...
and got a little confused by the CODEC ID: V_MPEG4/ISO/AVC thinking it was MP4, not x264 inside...
Funny the video plays fine, but the audio doesn't.
The ones I've run through Handbrake to turn into MP4's play a little smoother, at least on the Xoom's screen... HDMI out to my TV is still a little jerky

As well as the Moboplayer.apk please. I have a serious issue where any file from the market will download and as it comes to install MyApps FC's and the app just won't install. Don't know what else to do, I've cleared data and caches from Market and MyApps, but still no joy.
I also have this problem when playing h.264 MKV files. However, there is a work around.
Within Mobo Setting, there is an option called "Default using soft-decoding" under Playback section.
The video will have audio playback, but it might be jerky or there is lag between video and audio depend on video file.
This works for me, but I don't really understand why it's necessary. I have an mkv file with mpga audio and it plays the video just fine, but no audio. Isn't there a way to play the audio without taking the performance hit?
Just to clarify, this does _not_ use Tegra hardware acceleration, its just optimized for the ARM core (Like using an SSE optimised binary on a PC)
The _only_ way we will get usable 720p+ h.264 (main profile) and/or use an MKV container is if the _platform_ gets updated with support for the MKV container and Nvidia update their OMXs for the platform.
No app will improve of the default playback
