Hey guys,

I'm using the MHL Adapter from BizLink and tried viewing a 720p movie with DTS Sound.

The playback lagged :(. I don't know why..

I used the Dice Player, because it's supporting DTS, also i'm using a 5m HDMI cable.

But why is the movie lagging? There are kinda microlags..

Resolution: 720p

Video Bitrate: 5586 kbps

Audio Stream: DTS 5.1

x264

Maybe the Player causes the problem, because another 720p movie was played well (Samsung stock player). btw: the phone was very hot after watching the above mentioned (DTS) movie.

Does anyone has some ideas?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] techpal:
Ya some 720p movies also lags for me in Dice player.Its better to convert DTS audio only to ac3 format,doesnt take too much time either to convert.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jojo2peter:
Guess it's the best way to do.

Just watched a 1080p movie, and the phone was only a bit warm (with samsung stock player), was AC3. Does anyone know a "good" converter from DTS to AC3?

i had to split the movie into 3 files, to be able to play the movie (4GB limitation).

Maybe Samsung will fix these two issues: DTS capability and EXT4....
[Galaxy S II Accessories] juami:
Diceplayer prior to 1.2.0 have some video lag issue.

did you test the movie using diceplayer 1.3.0 ?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jojo2peter:
I was using the 1.3.0 version.

Watched 1080p without any lags, yesterday. Was using stock Player
[Galaxy S II Accessories] LightspeedGalaxy:
As far as I know hardware-acceleration an Android will only be used when using the integrated media-framework.

While Samsung extended the stock media-framework to support more container and codecs (like AC3 for example) it doesn´t support DTS.

This means, anything you can not play with the Samsung mediaplayer will use pure software-decoding, which is slow and burns a lot of energy.

This is no surprise. With software-decoding, which obviously isn´t fast enough, at least one, but probably both of the Cortex-A9-cores will run at full speed the whole time.

The reason for dedicated decoding-hardware in the SoCs instead just using more powerful general purpose CPUs is the much better energy-efficiency.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jojo2peter:
Yes, i thought the same, because it was so warm.

I used the Rockplayer, with it you can activate Hardware acceleration, but i don't know if it works.

Thought other players could use the hardware acceleration.

From now on, i will convert the DTS to AC3, but first of, i will look for stock AC3 :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] LightspeedGalaxy:
Rockplayer can use hardware-acceleration, but only using the Android-Framework, which means hardware-acceleration will only work for the same containers/codecs as with the stock mediaplayer.

As I said Players can use hardware-acceleration, but they have to do it using the media-framefork, which means no hardware-acceleration for containers/codecs which aren´t supported in the media-framework.

In theory you could develop a mediaplayer with your own media-framework, directly programming the SoC.

But the question is how much of use it would anyway, could the hardware assist decoding for codecs which aren´t already present in the media-framework? It certainly could be useful for unsupported containers, that contain codecs which are already supported.

But the biggest problem would be that your new media-framework will only work with the phone you developed it, nobody will make android-software for just one phone out there.

That´s somewhat of the curse of the Android-plattform. It has been developed for maximum compatibility between the different devices out there. This means lots of choices in devices to buy for us, and for software-developers many devices that can run their software. But it also means we are not getting device-specific-software from 3rd-party developers.

Hopefully the Android-Framework at some time will split up the media-framework into "modules" similar to a DirectShow Filtergraph, so mediaplayers could exchange this individual modules and still use hardware-acceleration in others (which come from the device-manufacturer)

This would allow for example the support of different containers without losing hardware-acceleration in the decoding-part (if the codec is already supported), as well as doing audio-decoding in software (which could be quite reasonably done with 2 Cortex-A9-CPUs) and still using the hardware for the video-part.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] bondapher:
I never hadany lag on the stock. Even the 1080 ones
[Galaxy S II Accessories] juami:
Diceplayer use SoC's HW Decoder. + SW decoder for Audio.

check this video

[YOUTUBE]ANf4oCNSxn0[/YOUTUBE]

After Diceplayer came out, all of android device that supported by diceplayer

can play MKV(H.264/MPEG-4+DTS/AC3).

Even Nexus-S can play MKV+DTS+H.264 High profile with Diceplayer.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] juami:
Send your file to me.

I'll check it.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] NoOneCanHelpMe:
I bet it lags because of the High Video Bitrate! get some 720p movie with Bitrate between 2K - 3.5 K and try :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jojo2peter:
And why did the 1080p movie work well?

It has a Video Bitrate @10250 kbps and AC3@640kbps...

will do that, if the next firmware won't fix that :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] juami:
mal-formatted mkv file can cause some lag.

H.264 need 2-type of frame time - PTS/DTS.

but some of MKVs have wrong time stamp.

SGS2's HW Video decoder can not handle these files.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jojo2peter:
so is my sample still lagging on your phone too?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] neferym:
did you modifie the SD cache ?

> 512 kb create some lag on my sg2 with the video player.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seeraj15:
Some rom guides tell you to wipe data/factory reset after you have.flashed the rom but wouldn't this put your phone back to stock firmware?

What is non wipe and wipe because I have tried both and they wipe everything.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lunchbox115:
You can find Wipe- and Non-Wipe versions on some ROMs. So you can choose if everything should be wiped or not.

Factory reset = removing all user data :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
If you are updating same rom then generally you can use non wipe version, if you are coming from a different rom then use wipe to avoid data conflict :)

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chris_el:
Wiping after flashing won't put your phone back to stock but may put it into a bootloop. Most instructions say wipe data before flashing, this will prevent any compatibility errors you may have with an old rom or version. Just remember to backup in case things go wrong.:)

Hi i have got this weird problem with my x10 it kepps cashing apps and rebooting tried flashing with flashtool and seus nothing is working please helpppp :mad:
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Lee:
What is the ROM or firmware the phone is on? Is the phone rooted, which baseband, and which xrecovery version if you have it? Info like that will help more people help you solve that problem.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sharaz22:
I am running wolfbreak Xperia TW 007.1 which is the most stable it does reboot but not as much as others and baseband is 52 and freexperia recovery i have tried flashing it with generic firmware but no luck and my phone is not under warranty the phone is rooted with superoneclick
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Lee:
Tell me how you are using flashtool, like, which folder are you putting generic firmware.

It should be in the firmware folder.

If you have it in the right folder. What are the error messages saying in flashtool?

Do you know how to put the phone in flash mode for flashtool?

Which version of flashtool do you have?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sharaz22:
I do put the firmware in firmware folder then i click flash on flashtool then choose the firmware then click ok then i turn my phone off press the back key for a bit then connect the usb.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Lee:
So then what goes wrong with flashtool?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sharaz22:
It flashes it successfully but the phone keeps crashing apps and rebooting there is no problem with flashing
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Lee:
I always hate saying this but i think you have something wrong with your phone's hardware. Flashtool should have fixed that problem. Have you tried pc companion or seus yet?

If that doesnt, you definetly have a problem. I hate to give you bad news.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sharaz22:
The phone is stable now on all roms no more reboots for day now but some apps still crash but not as much as before and some apps don't crash i don't think it is hardware fault it is something else i think not sure
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Lee:
How did you fix it?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sharaz22:
Can a faulty battery make the phone unstable?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Lee:
Possiblly
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sharaz22:
could the reboots and apps crashing caused by battery?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kryptonetworx:
I myself have same issue, regards battery i read somewhere a guy had a reboot, crash problem, he bought a 2500mA bat and claimed no more issues? So i think if battery over a two year age then maybe time for new, maybe somewhere these bats cnt handle the sudden power requirements required any longer, i have 4 bats, each oldr than 3 years at least. Anyone knw a place in za that one cd purchase a stronger amperage bat? I cd imagine a hardware issue, bt then why do so many work perfectly but some kp dn this? I have rd many complaints regards this phone. If it still is crashing i wdnt exactly call it anywhere near fixed? Bt im sitting with this prob, and im baffled, bt i still think a stronger batry wd be the 1st solution.

Hey guys just got my $13.97 Black Armor case from Amazon. I must say, this case is just as well built as an Otterbox! My only gripe was the smokey built in screen protector, but after I gave it the windex treatment it's good to go.

All the ports are covered well, with easy access to the kickstand. It adds about .3 thickness when on the phone, but not too heavy at all.

It's a damn good deal for the price, gives me everything I want in a case! No it doesn't come with the holster, but they are available separately! Check out amazon for more colors!

If anyone needs more action shots lemmie know!
[Thunderbolt Accessories] whall85:
Got the same case (in white) from eBay for cheap as well. Definitely had to cut out the built-in screen protector; drove me nuts! Other than that, awesome case.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] sklobopes:
Yea, I sat outside with it and noticed the Smokey mess all on it. Gonna go out to a hardware shop and try to find some plastic to cut n replace it!

have on pics of it on?

Hi guys,

I've recently installed cyanogen on my IncS and thought that the Talk application has the new video option...ive flashed the latest gapps and the video option isnt there.

i thought this was odd as when i had HD Revolution Rom installed i could see the camera icons.

anyone come across this and fixed it?
[HTC Incredible S] Raithmir:
Cyanogen 7.0 is based on 2.3.3.

Gtalk video is in 2.3.4, but I don't know if it's in the 7.1RC1 (think it needs a newer Gapps package than is listed on that thread).
[HTC Incredible S] NikonElite:
The new Cyanogen RC1 for IncS is 2.3.4

I have a screenshot but i cant post outside links yet
[HTC Incredible S] Raithmir:
From http://goo-inside.me/gapps

So I guess we have to wait until there is an updated version that does work.
[HTC Incredible S] byted:
I noticed the same thing with rc1 of cm7. The camera option is not visible. I was surprised to find that it was on 2.3.4. It appears that miui latest is also running 2.3.4.
[HTC Incredible S] NikonElite:
On the hd revolution tom I can the camera icon...never tested whether it worked though
[HTC Incredible S] korpyk:
I tested video in Revolution HD but it didn't work properly, I saw the one behind computer, but he didn't see me...
[HTC Incredible S] kylechen:
If you are on CM7 RC or Nighties, Use this gtalk patch from Modaco.

Install the apk

run the app, patch the gtalk

uninstall the apk.

DONE!

didn't worked for me on wildfire....

i'ws looking for some good voice chat option for htc wildfire, found this but it just crashes if click on video option, and there's no voice option for me....:(
[HTC Incredible S] NikonElite:
So, i tried that patch - it appears to have deleted my google account and now have no contacts - and now network data access
[HTC Incredible S] kylechen:
well its working beautifully on my inc s w/ cm7 nightly 15-50.

i actually factory reset my phone and reinstall the patch for couple of times, it never goes wrong. me and my girl use gtlk video often.

i dont know why funny problems happened on your guys phone.
[HTC Incredible S] NikonElite:
The gtalk patch is working fine now, i just re-synced, re-setup my apn's and all is good.

Patch is working great

[HTC EVO 3D] MFD00M:
I think my usb/charging port is a bit loose. I was thinking about exchanging my 3D before my 30 days. I've resisted the urge to accept the OTA updates bc of the possible root exploit. Question is, if i do decide to exchange will the new phone come with all the OTA updates preinstalled? Or will i still be prompted to accept them once i boot and activate the phone. TIA
[HTC EVO 3D] mcampos7:
A: NO

I just exchanged mine today after I installed the OTA's a couple days ago. They gave me new phone in box, I told them NOT TO ACCEPT the OTA's when they activated it. I did get the prompt but declined it and turned off scheduled checks. So I'm back to original, no OTA's. Did this about 5 hours ago.
[HTC EVO 3D] zone23:
I don't know why you guys would be worried the exploit attacks the kernel which is the same regardless of whether you excepted the OTA or not. In other words the OTA does not contain a change in kernels to my knowledge. If it did someone will be along shortly to correct me.
[HTC EVO 3D] mcampos7:
My phone had legit issues, that's why I exchanged it but I'll hold off on OTA's on this one just in case. Kernels come in the form of OTA's, how else would they update on your phone? Please tell me you don't bring it in to sprint to update your kernel :rolleyes:. Until it's fully rooted,with s-off, I'm not taking any updates. Phone works great out of box. Even green hornet 3d (need to get that the hell off there, waste of damn space)

And I'll quote you "to my knowledge" and "someone will be along shortly to correct me". I've just read enough to form this opinion. VERY WELL could be wrong.
[HTC EVO 3D] zone23:
Good but my point was the OTA did not bring a new kernel to my knowledge. Yes it is possible that HTC will close up the hole in the kernel in the future but as of now they haven't.

BTW Green Hornet is on your SDCard feel free to delete it when ever you like.

Gameloft games run good on andreno 220 like nova 2 and spiderman, modern combat 2 runs great but not n64oid, i thought this be a stepup from evo 4g which did the same, my only answer is snapdragon cpu sucks with emulators cause ive heard emu run off cpu. What really pisses me off is theirs guys on here saying mariokart runs flawless on evo 3d but it runs stuttery on my phone, qnd im not a noob ive had cm7 on my evo 4g so being rooted increase performance but theirs no root for 3d evo yet so what gives, ik running n64oid v1.1.4 :..........
