The next release is almost ready, guys! My beta testers are doing a great job of testing it as we speak, and once I get the green lights, I'll publish the update on Market.

Here's another preview of one of the changes - improved manual identification with plots and movie covers.
[Android Apps and Games] iGLOMP:
Looking great!
[Android Apps and Games] devteam:
This looks great! Will definitely check it out when my Tab 10,1 arrives. :)
[Android Apps and Games] FricoRico:
Any chance you can add any stuff like UPnP, DLNA or other network support so that I can acces the files on my NAS?

My Tab 10.1v has really limited capacity and all my movies are on my NAS
[Android Apps and Games] MichellBak:
Yeah, I've got it on my todo list, but since I'm not too sure on how I'm going to add it, I can't say when I expect it to be included in the app. For now, you can use a third party application for accessing the NAS and then add the directory as a custom path in Mizuu Movies. That should work :)

@ALL

The next release is almost done. Just gotta fix one small bug, and then it should be ready for primetime. Thanks for your patience :)
[Android Apps and Games] innerspace:
I don't know what devices you use (add a sig lol) but I use cifs on my g-slate and sensation to access smb shares on my lab via cifs manager which is available free on the market. Cifs is available as a module that can be loaded via insmod on many devices. The creator of your favorite rom can also easily build this capability in to their kernel as well.

I also requested dlna as an additional discovery method as well as support for xbmc libraries. I'm researching the two in my spare time but home mizuu'ss dev will figure it out, fully accepting that it is currently low on the list of priorities.

I'm waiting anxiously for the next release :)

I have noticed that SUPPORTED LANGUAGES are Danish, English.

Maybe I could help with transaltion to Polish?

There is also huge movies database with covers and descriptions in PL language.

[Android Apps and Games] MichellBak:
Thanks, I'll keep you in mind :)

I won't be adding additional movie databases. The database in the latest version is awesome - it's the same that Boxee / XMBC uses. Besides, it's open! Anyone can add movies to it, so if you're experiencing files that can't be identified, you can just add it to themoviedb.org and it'll show up in the app within 24 hours or so :)
[Android Apps and Games] MichellBak:
FOUND A SMALL BUG - FIXED NOW!

It's been fixed and v1.5.1 has been uploaded. It affected people with less than five videos during the initial setup.

Version 1.5.1 (August 5)

Fixes bug during setup if you have less than five movies on your tablet
[Android Apps and Games] HTC-Gunge:
hi I like the updated layout but I find the latest version to be a step back. The film identification doesn't work aswell as it did. I I have my Harry Potter films named like "HP Y01 - The Philosophers Stone" the old version found it the new doesn't. But worst than this is a bug where my 6 star wars films the first three are identified as the same film, so in the grid view I see the same cover 3 times and they all show linking to the same file but that means 2 of the films are missing. It's hard to explain...

Looking at the market feedback a number of others are having problems also.

Love the app, and love the new layout. But at the moment unusable.
[Android Apps and Games] MichellBak:
Hi!

After having spent quite a bit of time on this update, it's a bit discouraging to hear that you feel it's a step back.

It is against IMDb's terms of use to use their data, so I simply could not use it, although I wanted to. When I found out, I immediately switched to TMDb, which is free and open for every one to use. It's also the same as XMBC and Boxee uses.

Admittedly, TMDb isn't as great as IMDb at getting the correct results when dealing with incorrect names, such as "HP Y01", but that's something I'll be working on improving (and it works great if you name your files correctly, like you should do).

From the looks of it, all your problems are caused by your naming of files, and it's easily fixed by either renaming the files or using the built-in manual identification.

Hope it'll help.

Cheers,

Michell
[Android Apps and Games] MichellBak:
Thanks for that lovely tutorial, I'm sure many will use it :)

I just tried running Mizuu Movies with my external harddrive, containing more than 500 video files. The setup was a bit slow (500+ files, what do you expect?), but it ran through all of them without any problems. Check out the screenshot above for proof.

Some files, home videos and such, weren't identified, but that's what you can expect. This app is for movies.

I went ahead and tried to go through all the movies in both the grid and scroll view from top to end - no problems. Tried re-identifying one of the movies that were identified incorrectly and it crashed.

Looking at the crash report, it seems that the XML parser was having issues parsing a completely valid URL - this is not something I can do anything about, but I can make sure that it doesn't crash.

Once it crashed, that database entry was corrupt and it lead to the app force closing when trying to start the application. I have now fixed that issue, so that you can start it even if one or more entries are corrupt.

I've still got some work to do regarding bug fixes, but I'll try to push it out as fast as I can.
[Android Apps and Games] innerspace:
I'm sorry that post became so long! I'm glad you're ok with it.

I tried to scan my CIFS share and it crashed about halfway through the second phase of discovery. I can send you a log if you would like it but I imagine the issue I'm experiencing is the one you described in your last post. I've been spreading the word regarding your application and look forward the next release. :) Just got USB host working on the G-Slate (thx to Faye and Chiefzreloaded) and am certain Mizuu will come in handy in the future.

Cheers.

[Android Apps and Games] MichellBak:
Yes, please go ahead and send it. I can never be too sure :)
[Android Apps and Games] HTC-Gunge:
Ok sorry you had a bad feeling after my comment as I said I love the app and the new layout and the ability to change the cover art. So lot of create features added. As I say I just had a bad feeling with the identification.

After your comment, this morning I checked out TMDB and looked at the Title and Alternative Titles and renamed my files to match. Now the identification works perfectly!

I still think there might be a slight bug some where.

When I had three files named like this:

Star Wars Episode I.mp4

Star Wars Episode II.mp4

Star Wars Episode III.mp4

The app found three films identified them all as Star Wars Episode III I think it was and when you then went into the film the file name on all three showed as Star Wars Episode III.mp4.

Little bit of a mute point now that I've renamed them but just for your info.

Don't know if you added it this morning but I see now in the market you clearly state "Please make sure that your files are correctly named!" so that's good.

Thanks for all the hard work now I've got my files named correctly this really is an amazing app and a big improvement!

My wish list:

An interface for TV Series - Would be good if on the grid view you could see one cover for like "Game of Thrones Season 1" and then you select that and get the information and a list of the episodes and you click an episode to play it.

Be able to restart playback at last point - Kind of guessing this wouldn't be possible but would be great if I stopped watching a film say an hour into it that next time I came to play it, it would start at that point.
[Android Apps and Games] innerspace:
could you please point me to the crash report?
[Android Apps and Games] MichellBak:
Thanks a lot, I'm glad that helped.

The reason for that error is that it currently looks up movies based on their name, so if it identified all three as the same, it would look up that name and return the first result. I'll fix this soon.

Regarding your wishes - I'm working on a TV shows app, which will be awesome. It's a separate app, because I don't want to clutter up the interface, and it also gives me the possibility of doing special things for each app.

Regarding your second wish - it actually does that! You just need to play the video using Android's default video player. Unfortunately, there's no way for me to tell a third party player to start the video at a given point, but the default video player will prompt you when you start playing.

You can send it when the app crashes in the dialog that appears. Otherwise, you'll need to have it connected to a PC with adb.

Wow!

I´m waiting for this!
[Android Apps and Games] mddsd:
I think I've found a bug. :)

I'm running 1.5.1 and Android 3.2.

When selecting a movie or an episode the app sometimes select the one to the left instead of the correct one. This has happened to me several times.

Also would it be possible to add support for The TVDB and perhaps have this as a selection when pressing Identify. The one that is used now does not have great support for TV-Series. Also the TVdb is free to use and is also used by XBMC when dealing with TV-Series.

What is the difference between NIGHTLY and BOOT179 nighties? When would I use either one? Is there a difference how I apply them?

Thanks
[Defy General] 57op:
Both version include boot.img and devtree.img in the zip.

Nightly doesn't write those file into their relative partition, so it's supposed you've already installed CM7 ( rc or boot version ) or flashed froyo cee version ( 179 ) before flash the zip.

Boot version will write those files, so you don't need to flash froyo sbf if you come from different rom.
[Defy General] gabrielgagz:
How install boot179 nightly?

Like Jordan nightly's? Or i need full wipes? Thanks
[Defy General] 57op:
If you come from a different rom, you'll always have to wipe.

[Defy General] 57op:
If your base rom is Froyo CEE 2.2.2 ( aka 179 ) or CM7 RC1(v2), you don't need to flash a "boot-cm7".

In few words, you'll have to flash a boot cm7 version only if you know ( or don't know ) you're running a different kernel.
[Defy General] twa_priv:
carlo93, Thanks for your answers.

Here's my CM7 "history":

Started with stock US Froyo (3.4.2-107_JDN-9)

flashed JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_177-005_NORDIC (not sure if this was necessary but did it just in case)

installed CM7 RC1v2

installed cm7-110715-1018-NIGHTLY

If I understand everything correctly then there is not need for me to install a boot179 and I can go with normal nightlies, correct?

The exception would be the latest cm7-110723-1251-BOOT179-4, which includes the latest 179 kernel, in case I would like to try it out.

Also, I've read quite many posts regarding Rom Manager and that it is now supported in CM7.

But I'm still a little unsure regarding:

Can I use ROM Manager if I'm on cm7-110715-1018-NIGHTLY-Jordan? My current bootmenu version is v0.9.7-defy (CWM 4.0.1.0-defy as latest recovery and CWM 4.0.0.7-defy as stable recovery)

Or do I need to install a later nightly?

I found this post from Epsylon3 http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15665594&postcount=8716

"first time in rom manager you need to click on flash recovery.. that will ask you if you want to use current recovery... answer yes"

I installed Rom Manager 4.3.2.4 and it gives me the choice of CMW 2.x and CWM 3.x as the recovery versions I have manually installed. Which one should I choose or does it matter?

Thanks
[Defy General] shorty66:
I have a similar CM7 history and i recently flashed Boot 179-4.

Its one of the best nightlys i flashed so far and gives me a very good Battery performance. I recommend check it out.

Now we have BOOT-179 and and BOOTSEA nightly. I always install "nighltly" build...should i install BOOTSEA instead?
[Defy General] marci9464:
So we have to flash the boot version with rsd lite? And all our data will be deleted? Not like in nightlys were we its like just an update?

Sent from my MB525
[Defy General] Twist79:
The Boot Nightly are still just an Update. Just wipe Dalvik and normal Cache after you install them.

BTW: Battery Runtime with SEA boot nightly is better IMHO.

Someone tell the developer because I still can't post to the right topic in the right forum....

Is the overclock bug still in cm7-110727-0001-NIGHTLY-Jordan ?

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chubby_Skunk:
I thought that the Tegra 2 could play back 1080p. I ripped Sucker Punch from my Blu-Ray copy so that I could play it on my XOOM. Instead of 1080p I converted it to 720p just to be safe. When I tried to watch the file it wasn't showing up in Gallery.

I used Moboplayer (recommend by lordao) and when it played it, it would skip and be extremely laggy (as in less than 5 fps and the video on my desktop runs at 30fps). So I tried VPlayer and that worked but it would be a little choppy (it sorta worked).

The movie's format is 1280x534, MP4 Video, and 2.18GB.

Any ideas? or is it just the Tegra 2 and how Nvidia lied? :mad:
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kevterminator:
What is the File Format, .mkv?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wolfcry0:
It sounds like you didn't convert it to a proper file format, if it doesn't show up in the gallery you didn't use the correct format.

Moboplayer can play it because it uses software decoding for unsupported media, but as a downside can't play HD files very well since it can't use the hardware acceleration that the tegra 2 offers
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chubby_Skunk:
no. I used mp4.

Normally use AVI and it works flawlessly in Moboplayer.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chubby_Skunk:
Just to clarify, you're saying Mobo can't play it in 720p because it doesn't take advantage of the Tegra 2?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kevterminator:
If the File Type isnt supported by Honeycomb (like .mkv) Mobo will use Software decoding and run extremly slow, if the file is supported Mobo will use Hardware acceleration.

Maybe your file is containing a weird video or audio codec because AVC mp4 f.e. is played even with the Standard player in 720p flawlessly ,i recently watched 3 mp4 720p Movies. :)

If you have a computer with an Nvidia graphics card, look into Badaboom for fast conversions.

Either way, use h264 with baseline encoding for best playback.

They play so good on the xoom that now the last reason to keep my ipad2 is gone, so I've sold the ipad2 lol

I want to convert some anime with .ass subtitles for playback on the SGS2, so I'll have to hardcode them into the video, but what are the best settings for the best quality? H264 or Xvid? Mkv, mp4 or avi? I'm using StaxRip, but I'm willing to use other converters.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raudi1:
Afaik subtitles don't have to be hardsubs. Softsubs should work on stock player, or at least with other players such as mvideoplayer, diceplayer, vplayer, rockplayer...

But I've read they don't show through HDMI when hardware decoding is used.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dejong12:
Those subs come with all the fancy stuff, karaoke, typsetting you know. I don't if they work because my SGS2 is still on its way to get here, but because I'm going on holiday very soon, I'd like to have my video's pre-encoded so that I can drop them onto my phone and play.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prodygee:
Yea, the advanced styled ones don't work. The fancy anime karaoke subs are most of the time baked into the video. The fancy effects are nearly impossible to do real-time.

Convert them to srt and they'll work, but that'll surely ef up your subtitles overall. Just bake them into the videos with some nice tools available at video-help.com (amazing site).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dejong12:
I was originally planning to hardcode them into the video, but I want to know which settings, what is the best container and format? I don't want the video to be effed up. At what settings do you usually encode video's or movies for the SGS2?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dejong12:
Can anybody help me?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghost77:
Asking witch one is best is not easy to answer.

I encode my HD music videos to 720p mkv , high-profile 3.1 x264 or H264 (same thing i think).

For reference SGS1 and 2 , can play "high profile x264(mkv) 720p@59.97 fps" , SGS2 can play MP4 1080p@30fps (had no success with 1080p x264).

Decoding HD video does take more processing power and eats thro battery faster. If you want max battery encode in "baseline MP4" and aim for 800x450 or under depending on aspect ratio.

Encoding with "high-profile x264 (mkv)" will result in lower file size and much better video quality then "baseline (mp4). SO its up to you if you want max battery or max quality.

Most anime and movies from Internet will play without any transcoding mkv,xvid,avi,divx.

If you get free 3rd party video player from market my personal favorite "mVideoPlayer" it uses SGS2 hardware samsung codecs to play media also support for

SGS2 has best media compatibility of all the phones but it still can't match versatility of PC.

Some badly encoded videos with none standard settings custom compression matrix ect. will not play or play with artifacts, in that case try one of the software players that don't use samsung codecs "Moboplayer" or "Diceplayer"

As for encoding/transcoding videos i use "MeGUI" but its not noob friendly. There are several noob friendlier converters but i found them lacking.

Anyway don't waist time transcoding if you don't have SGS2 , wait untill you get it test your media and only then transcode ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dejong12:
Thank you for your explanation! Say, if I encode one video with high-profile x264, 848x480@23,976fps, it would work on the SGS2? Is it better to have mp4 or mkv with this? Can I send you two of the same videos for you to try on the SGS2?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghost77:
Yes if you upload them to something like megaupload or mediafire i can test it for you, you can PM me links.

SGS2 will play that easy. If you encode with above settings it doesn't matter if its mp4 or mkv as those are only containers your encode will be "high-profile x264".

Benefit of mkv is you can integrate soft subtitles that can be turned on or off. If subtitles are hardcoded then there is no noticeable difference.
