First post here :) Great forum

First of all thanks for the great APP, this is the best app for mkvs so far.

Unfortunately I am on the same boat here. I use ES-File explorer to mount my WDTV via SBM. I have tried to stream .srt along with my mkvs but i have no luck at all, can these feature be added on a further version ??? i would love to.

BTW i feel your pain also on the XBMC thing , i got it running on my ipad and what do you know it handles all of my high 1080 mkv without a problem. I feel so frustrated that android is not getting any XBMC love.

But this thread is for dice player so to stay on topic is there a way we can stream mkv files along with srt files ????
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Seppiesama:
I'm also streaming with ES but also without streaming this still occurs.. Hope it get fixed soon :)

With MoboPlayer you can choose the sub while streaming with ES but the video itself is really bad
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Anndy:
Hello,

Have you tried Buzz Player for streaming (one of the Best players for ipad BtW)?

It works all right with full streaming capabilities.

Cheers,
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Anndy:
For the non embedded subs, long click on the film and choose "play subtitle file".

;-)

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Seppiesama:
Just tried it and the subs work but the video itself (720p) itsnt running smooth at all unlike DICE Player.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] lrissman:
I like MX Player a lot, thanks to this post for introducing it to me. I have not used Dice mentioned a lot in this one too.

I do have a quick question for all those out there. I dont have any issues with the video decoding, between me doing re-encodes to optimize space on my unit and well done video, I dont have playback issues. What I do have issues with is my 2 yr old daughter watching my re-encoded dvds on the tablet.

I come from an android 2.0 tablet where the controls lock button actually worked. On android 3.0, the control lock buttons do not seem to disable the buttons on the bottom on the screen (Escape, Home, App switcher, SEttings, and notifications). Any thoughts how i can lock out all controls except maybe a specific unlock sequence? That is a feature I would pay for.

Thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] AcIdC0R3:
Do you mean to lock the whole app or just a certain function of an app? Here is THIS app which will lock the entire app with a passcode.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] lrissman:
Hi, thanks but no. I am not looking to block access to apps. I am looking for a way to keep the video playing after I hand the tablet to my daughter who thinks it is great touch the portions of Dora the Explorer in the video and inadvertently stopping the video or returning to the home screen.

MX player has a control lock that works for the standard pause/play/seek type controls, but doesnt block out the home button on the bottom android 3.0 bar. The lock that MX has would work quite well on a pre-honeycomb android version as there is no bottom bar and it truly would lock down the entire screen while a video is playing.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] AcIdC0R3:
Ok I get you. Actually Dice Player does have a lock feature now that allows for locking the screen and won't allow any key presses to interrupt the video except for the little lock at the top left corner of the screen.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] lrissman:
I just downloaded the trial of dice and tried it. Yes, the lock works, but the same as MX player. It doesnt prevent one from pressing the home button and returning to the home screen. (otherwise, also a nice player)

Any other thoughts?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] AcIdC0R3:
Yeah, hrm... There is THIS app, but you will need ROOT access in order to utilize it's features.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] turbulent28:
I guess youll need a aplayer that hides the bottom bar. Then lock the screen and your little one shuiodnt be abke to stop the mivie.

Ive hesr peoplple mention wqnting a player that would hide the task bar..but i dont think its been discovered.

Dint mind the mispelling. Im on an asus keyboard...
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] lrissman:
Hmm.. a button remapper. I will have to think about that a bit, seeems like a possible solution but it is not immediately obvious to me how to do that without impacting my general use of the tablet. Maybe two profiles and a profile switcher like phoneweaver.. hmm.

I am not worried about rooting the device, It was the first thing that I did on my last tablet but havent had a need yet on the transformer.

Maybe I should dig into the SDKs and see if there is an API hook to go true full screen vs the full screen that leaves the button bar... But that isnt a conversation for this thread.

Thanks all for the hints!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Muchoaliento:
Well thanx to all U people in this thread I came aware that TF does not natively play 720 mkvs.

Good for the Dice player that seems to do so. Will check it as soon as I buy my TF
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Shocky2:
Dice player works for mkvs but it's very glitchy, it seems to be a hardware issue, how on earth did nvidia screw this up?

Files that play fine on the Galaxy S/II default video app and even my old i8910 won't play on Tegra 2 because the hardware can't handle it. :mad:

I hope they fix this with tegra 3 or I won't be touching them.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] droid_does:
Has anybody experienced mxplayer cutting off the subtitles when using HDMI out?

The subs would appear fine in my tab but once outputting to my the the subs would disappear

I noticed this only happened since the 3.2update (running prime) seems like HDMI is cutting more of the screen oh than before?

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ajamils:
The latest MxPlayer plays 720 mkv beautifully with HW accelerate but unfortunately it does not have any sound :(
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] droid_does:
+1 on that

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] gtsfrost:
there is an update in the market? cause apparently my mxplayer hasnt gotten any recent updates, recent = like 2 days ago, but however it stills play music with HW decoding. mind if there is a link for the latest mxplayer? thanks.

cause the current one am running the frame rate is still not as smooth as dice.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ajamils:
There hasn't been a new update in last few days. The one that I got was from the market, so whichever version that was.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] casanovafrankenstein:
I think mobo does this, except the hone button can still bring you back to the desktop
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] satanius:
New version of MX player released yesterday now supports HW video decoding plus SW audio decoding, works fine with 720p mkvs with AC3 and DTS audio that i tried. Also has nice, totally redesigned GUI. It's for sure great free alternative for DicePlayer now.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] DaveRichardson:
The latest MXPlayer update makes is phenomenal. Everything satanius said, + disappearing menu bar. Perfect Honeycomb video player. Set it as default, combine it with the 'Mizuu Movies' video management application and you have the single best video-playing experience I've encountered.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] dgcruzing:
looking good..

playing files that wouldnt before..

.mkv .avi

loaded in the new drivers..

I think we are now on to a winner with this as this was the thing that was missing..

will test it more over the next few weeks..

but so far living up to the promises...

I think the rom developers will be happy.. as will take a bit of heat of them on this issiue..

[HTC EVO 3D] monkeybone12:
Finally pulled the trigger on the 3D, and I have been reading quite a bit on it. I wanted to know from you lucky folks having had some time with it already, what is your favorite part about the phone? What features caught you off guard, overall impression of the phone? Looks like some people are getting stellar battery life, and coming from the Evo OG, I have high expectations. (Running Synergy on the OG now, and I am digging Sense 3.0!)

Applications that REALLY belong on the Evo, and anything I should REALLY avoid.

I have been looking at the rooting community pretty closely, and it sounds like there is a wee bit o hate and discontent, but I'm sure it will settle down if and when the goodness happens with permanent root.

Thanks guys!

ALSO - What applications have you found to be PERFECT on this phone? I just snagged up a Nook Color just to flash MIUI on it, so I do have my flashing solution in the meantime... :P
[HTC EVO 3D] -Apollo-:
Congrats man! You'll enjoy it, sounds like you've been keeping up on the threads so you know kinda what to expect. 3D is awesome, and I'm an old guy compared to most on here, and it amazes me. Hell, I even purchased Spider-Man and I am not a gamer, but it's a good one I think with some nice depth...really fun. My suggestion is to try to not look for faults in the device, just enjoy it as it is a huge upgrade to the OG and hopefully very soon we'll be some ROM flashing fools! As you can probably tell people are getting pretty edgy and a lot of wars going on here, too much time on our hands, so hopefully real soon lol! So welcome aboard, you're gonna love it!
[HTC EVO 3D] Randy D:
A breath of fresh air :-) Welcome aboard! Great phone, you will enjoy the heck out of it. Thanks for the enthusiasm.
[HTC EVO 3D] Shaquiel Harris:
Lol your rooted sense 3.0 experience won't compare with this device stock. It will be better on your evo 4g until this device is rooted. Just so you won't come compare the experience.
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
Its a great phone, you won't be disappointed
[HTC EVO 3D] chlehqls:
Camera freezes are the biggest thing for me to worry right now.

Otherwise, this phone is awesome.
[HTC EVO 3D] Riff76:
If you're not a flashaholic then its the best phone you can buy right now. Even if you a flashaholic, you cannot the deny the dual core 1.2 GHz and 1 GB ram balls this beast has.
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
No way man, coming from the 4G running sense 3 the 3D blows it away man. Add in the two chichitec batteries and my battery life is close to double what my 4g was getting with a similar setup.

I'm content with temp root for the moment but the second I get s-off i'll have this phone flying.
[HTC EVO 3D] Addictedtothegreenguy:
Man welcome to hell this phone sux huge balls 3D is bad really bad. I have light leakage my screen is crooked my battery life sucks I only have 1 core and there is no permanent root for god sakes I want to be able to flash roms. Idk what these guys are talking about this is such a Downgrade from the OG. If no permanent root before 7/24 I'm taking it back.....

Now that you've heard all the bs, this is the best phone i've ever had my hands on and 2011 I had most of the new hot smart phones my favorite was the OG Evo. This phone is a keeper for sure the 3D is wonderful the phone is completely fast as hell and I really don't have any complaints.

Bang.... That's the sound of my shooter.
[HTC EVO 3D] monkeybone12:
I did notice that. Fortunately the Synergy Rom is providing some meantime amusement. I'll have to look into the spideman game, I've been such a nut for Plants v Zombies, abduction 2, and quite a few others I was lucky enough to get from that Amazon free application deal. Thanks for the words, and I'm pretty sure I'll be enjoying it!
[HTC EVO 3D] monkeybone12:
Thanks man, I can't wait to do all the stuff I already do.... BUT FASTER! Lol...
[HTC EVO 3D] monkeybone12:
Good to know. I'm sure it will tide me over until development allows for alternatives.

SIDENOTE:

Do you have the T-Mo Espresso still? My Fiance has that, and I really haven't found a Sense based rom that is really stable... You know of any? She's on one of the latest nightlies of Cyanogenmod, but I have not been able to find a dumbed-down-enough method of S-Off, so it is still S-On, and I have to do that "update" anytime I want to enter the custom recovery. What method did you use for S off? Seen any good sense Roms?
[HTC EVO 3D] monkeybone12:
Glad to hear it! :)
[HTC EVO 3D] monkeybone12:
I can deal with that. Hell, from CM and MIUI and all the things between that I've flashed, I'm rather used to a bug here and there... lol
[HTC EVO 3D] monkeybone12:
Self proclaimed flashaholic... but I think I can deal. That's the exact reason I finally went for it, the dual core really sold me on it. Truth be told, I have not even had the luxury of putting hands on one yet. The first one I see will be mine! I feel like Cartman waiting for the Nintendo Wii...
[HTC EVO 3D] monkeybone12:
Now THAT is good to hear. Temp-root still sounds good to me. If they've gotten this thing to 1.8mhz without a meltdown, I'd assume it can take some pretty decent frequencies consistently. Time will tell.
[HTC EVO 3D] monkeybone12:
LOL... Yeah, I've heard most of that, and still made the purchase. :)

Good to hear, again, I haven't been lucky enough to lay hands on it! Good to hear your favorite was the Evo, ditto on that! No buyers remorse here!
[HTC EVO 3D] Zoidpilot:
Hey just wanted to add that I noticed you said "finally pulled the trigger". Good pun considering you just bought a "Shooter" haha....

I'll tell you what really caught me off guard was the little things they implemented in sense 3.0. On my OG EVO I had to get different apps to do things that are now built-in. It was a welcome surprise. The back speaker disappointed me a little at first, but I weened myself off of it and I'm used to it now. Overall its an awesome phone, but you don't need to hear it from me... I really feel like I have the top of the line for now, and it seems that its only gonna get better.

Welcome to the Shooter family!

Sent from my Shooter 3D
[HTC EVO 3D] monkeybone12:
Lol... yeah, unintentional pun to be honest. :P

Well that is good to hear about the 3.0, I've grown pretty accustomed to Sense 3.0 Elements on the OG!

It IS the top of the line, for now, as is all electronic hardware. But I think it will be able to hold up for a full year. Imagine, soon we will be looking back at the Shooter wondering how we ever got along with such a slow 3D phone, especially when 5G and 6G is all the rave... lol

I'll have it in the next day or two... Xmas coming early!
[HTC EVO 3D] life64x:
Welcome...you enjoy the speed of this demon....don't you..:). I miss synergy also but we are shortly ( hopefully ) getting custom roms to take care of that and others that could not be run on the evo 4g. You will notice a few things different and they what ever they are I found are quickly forgotten the more you use the phone. If you haven't already...temp root...download barnacle for wifi tethering and what ever you use...get your titanium and you will be all set. There is a lot of bickering around here...that is true...but one thing I noticed..it is the new users who have no idea what's up come in here and start them...or haters coming in and bashing the 3vo saying it is not this or that( most of the time, they don't even own one).. Or long time community members with a agenda..you are right..once perm root comes along with unlocked phones..it will settle down and become more positive.
[Acer Iconia A500] silverball.slayer:
I don't have an Acer A500 anymore, instead I got a Xoom. I thought it would be the 'one', but I'm noticing that the Xoom has pretty substantial 'ghosting' on dark images which can be attributed to a low refresh rate on the LCD. Can a few of you check out this ghosting test and tell me how the acer display performs?

http://www.prad.de/en/monitore/testsoftware/ghosting.html

I don't expect the acer to be significantly better, but when I had the acer I didn't think it was nearly as bad as the xoom (the xoom is pretty bad).

[Acer Iconia A500] sanaell:

A500 is Ghosting same as a old PSP 2000 model :D

but somehow I like this ghosting in some case :D that give a kind of motion blur effect hahaha
[Nexus S General] ActaSanctorum:
Hello,

So after doing my first unlock/root, on my launch date Nexus S (T-Mobile, non-4G, I9020XXKD1 , Android 2.3.4), I lost my ability to connect to use wifi. Note that I am able to connect to EDGE/3G networks, but I have problems when attempting to connect to my wireless router.

What happens is I can "see" and select various networks around me, and I can attempt to connect to it, but I am unable to proceed past the "Authenticating" part of the connection process.

I have done a fair amount of research and concluded that my root method and my Wifi configurations somehow do not match and therefore it does not connect.

Is there a radio image that I can use to flash onto my phone in order to fix this issue? Or any other method to fix this?

Thank you :)

EDIT: I actually came across this thread about radio flashes. But I am unsure about this and do not want to completely disconnect my wireless capabilities by flashing the wrong radio.

Try to put your router on an channel below 9. Worked for me...

EDIT: Sorry, too tired... Didn´t read your post the way I should. I couldn´t see my network at all.
[Nexus S General] ActaSanctorum:
The thing is, it's not really my router that's a problem, it's my phone unable to connect to the router. I'm going to try to match channels though, to see if that works.
[Nexus S General] jojje_2009:
I do have the same problem at work, phone is trying to get an IPnr but can´t get one. However, I haven´t had the time to try to fix it, and I don´t know what channel it is on. Will try to work it out during the next week...
[Vibrant Android Development] roffee:
where you can find TASKER 1.1b4

i only find Version: 1.0.21 in offical website

BTW, why don't just turn off gps, i don't think this can drain battery.
[Vibrant Android Development] gamikzone:
yeah i dont think it does i leave mine on and i get good battery life
[Vibrant Android Development] strictlyrude27:
Check the link I posted.

Disable/enable for the GPS driver itself was based on a conversation in the CM7 nightlies thread (can't find it because there are WAY too many posts in that thread). In Trigger Redux#13, Roman introduced an "Enable GPS" checkbox in his EDT Tweaks that loads or unloads the GPS driver. This Tasker widget just emulates that functionality, but with a few more bells and whistles.

It may or may not impact battery life; I haven't run enough tests to truly understand the impact of leaving the GPS driver enabled, but GPS functionality disabled. I do know that at the time of the original fix (nightly #54 or thereabouts?) it was, correctly or incorrectly, associated with moderate to heavy battery drain. I've always used EDT Tweaks to load/unload the driver ever since; I just wanted to share something that made my life easier, and might make others' lives easier too.
[Vibrant Android Development] mi3x:
Yes I confirm, GPS enabled does not actually waste your baterry life, it only uses it when the gps icon is blinking. I keep my gps on all the time, but this is a nice profile nevertheless.

Hey all,

I'm trying to downgrade to 1.2.6 via RSD Lite and I am getting this error at 93%

It seems to try to 'Switch phone to BP Pass through mode' at 93%... fails to do so, and times out. Anyone else had this happen?

I can still start the phone, get into the OS, it says 1.2.6...so I thought maybe it did work...however, when i then try to update after rooting, the update fails to install. Thoughts?!?! Thanks!
[Atrix 4G General] TechnoNeto:
try flashing to .83 maybe where you unlocked bl or on a different ota?
[Atrix 4G General] Crymson:
I got my phone with 1.8.3 on it and was trying to downgrade to 1.2.6. The downgrade failed, however, the phone does start, and it does say 1.2.6 and I can root...I just can't perform system update, as the install fails.

You are saying I should root, and then go to 1.8.3 via RSD Lite, and not through the system update?

Also, I have not unlocked the bootloader yet, is that needed for this? I thought it was only needed for CWM?
[Atrix 4G General] TechnoNeto:
If the ota updates aren't working I would use rsd. You do not need an unlocked bootloader I was asking if u have one cause it could have affected the phone
[Atrix 4G General] Crymson:
If i root in 1.2.6, then use rsd to update to 1.8.3, wont superuser be gone, and won't I lose root?

Will the afterupdate.bat in gladroot still work if i use rsd to update and not ota?
[Atrix 4G General] Crymson:
When I get home, I'm going to try to flash 1.2.6 again, using some of the tips and tricks for flashing SBFs. Shorten the name, put it in C:, run RSD as admin, and update to v5.3.1 (was using v5)

Hopefully this will stop the RSD error
[Atrix 4G General] Jnewell05:
Try rebooting your computer, and reinstall drivers from Motorola.

If that fails use another computer.
[Atrix 4G General] TechnoNeto:
Try the new rad and update drivers
[Atrix 4G General] Crymson:
Yes! Thanks to everyone for their help! I updated RSD Lite, and switched computers, and it flashed perfectly now. I have since unlocked the bootloader, went to 1.83, and got root. Now to pick what rom i want, any suggestions?
[Atrix 4G General] plasticglock:
I suggest deleting RSD. Now that you have the unlocked bootloader using it will brick your phone. I unlocked mine and have not tried any gingerbread roms yet. I am still running 183 with ginger blur. Everything works great on it, and I want to let the new roms develop for a while and work out the kinks before I jump in. Just an option.
[Atrix 4G General] MdX MaxX:
No. I've unlocked my bootloader and I've successfully flashed the 1.8.3 SBF multiple times with no issues.

If you flash the HKTW Gingerbread or 4.5.91 through fastboot, you won't have to worry about bricking your device.
