CWM= Clockwork recovery mod. What version of android are you running?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nbell13:
This. Rom manager sucks. I would use odin to flash one of the leaked gingerbread builds, and then flash a custom kernel, also with odin (boogs kernel comes to mind), which has clockworkmod built in. Place the cyanogenmod install file, along with google apps, on the internal sd card. Then it's just a matter of holding power and both volume buttons until the phone reboots, when you see the white at&t screen release the power button but keep holding the volume buttons. You should eventually come to a black screen with green writing if memory serves me correctly, this is clockwork mod. I actually don't remember what color the writing is, but it should say CWM recovery at the top. choose the options to wipe data/factory reset (navigate with volume keys, select with power key), wipe cache, then go into advanced, and wipe the dalvik cache. once this is complete, go back to the main cwm menu, and select "install from sd card", then just find the cyanogenmod zip, select it, and let it go. it will reboot once to repartition to the mtd file format, and then it will automatically continue the install. Welcome to CyanogenMod. Use the same method to flash the google apps package. It sounds more complicated than it actually is.

hello guys, anybody tried to play 720p HD mkv or 1080p mkv?

KF can play this video format?
[Kindle Fire General] CrackMonkey91:
Best way to find out is to try it right
[Kindle Fire General] animefun135:
I haven't Kindle yet and can't try ... I want to buy it but I need to know how HD video works on KF.

Can't put link to HD video for test... need 8 posts... sorry...

Let try find 720p video on torrent/tracker etc...

P.S If you open a standard player does not work, please try the MX Video Player or Mobo Player and make sure that it is accelerating HW and everything goes smoothly...

Thanks.
[Kindle Fire General] MichaelVash7886:
I didn't hear anything about mkvs, but I did hear it can play 1080p and I read it did a solid job of it as well. Seems file size is limited to 2 GB max though.
[Kindle Fire General] animefun135:
maybe mx video player can play mkv on KF?
[Kindle Fire General] asb2164:
It will play 720p mkv's it gets a little choppy not sure if it is from streaming over wireless causing it or if the hardware is just not up to the task.

I am using Skifta + mx video player.
[Kindle Fire General] ipccheng:
I used Moboplayer to play 720p mkv and it played like a champ.
[Kindle Fire General] qq552:
Hi, How do you get moboplayer running? KF auto reboots once I tap a video in mobo.
[Kindle Fire General] drcalypso:
I tried an 720p mkv of "The Art Of Flight" (amazing piece btw). using mx player and mobo. it runs pretty solid but not perfectly fluid. so it seems to vary from movie to movie, but once those apps get updated to be more optimised for the fires cpu/gpu we should be pretty save.
[Kindle Fire General] shug176:
i have sent a 720p mkv of cars 2 quality is outstanding and plays with vplayer:D
[Kindle Fire General] zalmann:
I downloaded 720p anime trailer and sideloaded MX Video Player but it couldn't activate hardware decoding and thus played very choppy. Given the processor is the same as the Archos G9 tablets, they must have messed up on the codecs.
[Kindle Fire General] jakaka:
I tried 2 hours long 720p movie 3GB in size and it was playing decently, only in some fast action in was tearing a little bit.

Anyway I don't really see much sense in this as movie like this is taking up most of space available. Normal SD quality stuff is playing fine.
[Kindle Fire General] zalmann:
Ok this time I tested this 720p sample clip of the Californication intro (mirror here) and MX Video Player could only do software mode so it was choppy.

Has anyone ever gotten MX Video Player to use hardware mode on this thing?
[Kindle Fire General] jakaka:
My MX is saying that it's actually in HW mode in one movie that I tried.

On this one it's working

and on this one it's in SW

There doesn't seem to be that big difference between these files and yet it's working only on one.

EDIT: It appears that only H.264 mp4 files are HW accelerated.
[Kindle Fire General] screwyluie:
Perhaps not ideal for everyone, but I keep my movies I'm my computer and use the emit app to stream/convert and download them at will to the kindle, it all works very well
[Kindle Fire General] a1exus:
i've tried mx player and vplayer and for both some audio delays apart from video.. any ideas?
[Kindle Fire General] Vyrlokar:
Too bad this tablet does not have HDMI out. With the 1024x600 screen, it can't really play 720p/1080p videos, even if the CPU is up to it. I've heard that the CPU is more suitable to playing those videos than the Tegra2, am I right? because even with BS Player I'm having issues with some frames skipping on MKVs
[Kindle Fire General] manifest3r:
I'm playing American Psycho at 720p, and its an mp4, works gloriously :D
[Kindle Fire General] zalmann:
But the first video you tried was MKV :confused:
[Kindle Fire General] jakaka:
mkv is a sort of container. Inside can be different video formats, including subtitles ...

More interesting would be to find out why the second one is not playing in HW, as used codec appears to be pretty much the same.
[Kindle Fire General] zalmann:
Yes, so as long as the video player app is capable of getting the streams out of it and passing them on to the hardware decoder, it should make no difference. So the question is what is the issue here - did Amazon screw something up?
[Kindle Fire General] -Zeta-:
Guys I downloaded the Man In Black 3 Trailer (1080P MP4) From YouTube and plays very smoothly on Kindle Fire using MoboPlayer with no extra codec installed.

Take it as a reference. (I cant post the embedded link as I am a newbie here, Sorry about that)

[Kindle Fire General] mr_gem:
Hey it's me who commented on your clip, did you try mkv clip ?
[Kindle Fire General] -Zeta-:
Hey, thanks for replying the vid.

Using the same version of MoboPlayer, I am able to watch a 720P MKV clip smoothly.

I don;t have a 1080P MKV in my collection so could not help right now.
[Kindle Fire General] animefun135:
You can't just say "smoothly" by the eye. Install MX Video Player and you will see SW mode decoder. In dynamic scene 720p mkv laggy cuz SW dercoder can't handle with this container. 1080p mkv has 3fps.
[Kindle Fire General] ITS ME DAVID:
On your Pc DL and install mkv2vob it will change the container to mp4 under settings without reencoding
[Kindle Fire General] Entropy512:
16 bframes is INSANELY high. I think the second video used some very aggressive or nonstandard encoder options (For example, I don't even see a constant rate factor setting in the second one - looks like some other method of specifying rate control was used)

End result is that the second vid has a much better compression ratio (look at the bits/(pixel*frame) value) but probably has some codec option that isn't compatible with the hardware decoder.
[Kindle Fire General] animefun135:
mkv2vob just change *.mkv to *.mp4 and that all. Kindle Fire still can't play mp4 files muxed by this program.
[Kindle Fire General] e.mote:
>16 bframes is INSANELY high

Not really. It's what you get if you use x264cli and the --veryslow speed preset, which many videophiles use to get the best compression.

The setting specifies the MAX bframe count the encoder can use. Typical live videos with dynamic scenes won't ever use the max. It's with animes and cartoons that will use the max setting.

>For example, I don't even see a constant rate factor setting in the second one.

It's using 2-pass with specified bitrate, which then determines CRF. CRF is normally set for one-pass.

>mkv2vob just change *.mkv to *.mp4 and that all. Kindle Fire still can't play mp4 files muxed by this program.

You can try this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1102922

==========

I've posted this video test in here when the KF came out, but it scrolled off, so I'll repost it here. You can use the 1080p clips in the link to test for performance:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1348488

The differences between the 1080p_min, avg, and max are compression settings and bitrate. The _min uses baseline profile, CRF23, and --veryfast preset. The _avg uses high prof, CRF21, and --medium. The max uses high, CRF20, L5.1, and --veryslow. The speed setting determines the compression settings used.

Most 1080p scene encodes approximate _avg clip in compression settings, although they typically use a higher bitrate. The _max clip would be the most demanding BDRIP you'll run across, since most compression settings are maxed. Likewise, the clip itself is an especially intense scene.

The MP4 container (w/ 2.0 AAC audio) was used to allow hardware playback, so you can use the standard Android player. This allows testing of just the hardware.

Give feedback on whether your KF can play the 1080p_avg and _max smoothly and with audio in sync. If so, you can try the _master clip and see how the KF fares with that.

[Kindle Fire General] e.mote:
http://google.com/search?q=avisynth+devil.dll

http://openil.sourceforge.net/
[Kindle Fire General] e.mote:
@jakaka

The reason for the 2nd clip invoking SW mode is probably because of the subtitle track. You can use my script listed above to remux this to MP4, which also extracts the subtitle to external SRT file. Since audio is already in AAC, the remux should take only a few seconds.

Another possibility is the "header stripping" mode. This was used in recent versions of MKVToolnix, and may still be an issue with some decoders. You can set MKVToolnix to disable the header stripping, and remux the file.

no hw decoding in any video

I tried with rockplayer lite, mobo, bsplayer. And in all, when i try hw decode, i get a message like "this file cannot be played with system player". I tried mkv, avi. Anyone had this? Cant seem to find in forums. Avi runs nicely with sw, but mkv's were quite low fps.
[Kindle Fire General] cronoser:
Have you tried the MX Player?
[Kindle Fire General] peachyskin:
for 720p mp4 files all the video app I'm using (Mobo player and MX player) including the stock video player seem to be working well with no problem at all

for 720p mkv file Mobo Player can't handle it but MX player is working just fine

also AVI files play nicely with Mobo player and MX player
[Kindle Fire General] cenkoloji:
Works better with MX

Yes, I try MX Player with a mkv now. It says "Can not play this file with HW mode". However when I chose SW fast, it shows a quite good performance. Thanks!

Also one more thing, which application is the stock player? Amazon Video?
[Kindle Fire General] animefun135:
I now wonder why the Chinese Tablet for $ 199 can play 1080p video and 720p mkv videos without any problems, but our Kindle Fire can not?
[Kindle Fire General] cu6apum:
I second the previous comment. Maybe the problem is located in the player that is not fitted well for our device?!

I tried avi mkv ts vob mp4 et al, NONE of them play in hardware-accelerated mode (mx player), most of 720p files lag awfully, and 100% of 1080i/p files just freeze for seconds when played. An iphone4 with XBMC plays them better!!!

Just can't (and won't) recode my 80TB of movies into mp4...

I have CM7/TWRP2/CifsManager. So the vids don't get streamed through kindle. Tried to put them onto /sdcard, same results, plus 2gb limit...
[Kindle Fire General] trvor:
Attempting to add 720p flix on the Kindle Fire will be the next project for me. Right now I am leaning toward the Vplayer and Mobo.
[Kindle Fire General] cu6apum:
Mobo works even worse.

BTW, is there any kind of hw acceleration supported in CM9 already?

UPD. Vplayer shows black screen on mkv/mpeg2 when "hardware decoder" checked in options. On mkv/h.264 it quickly displays a screen of garbage and instantly reboots the kindle...
[Kindle Fire General] Cyberxdadevelopers:
I use the BSPlayer and tried it successfully with different Jellybean Roms (e.g. the formidable one by twa_priv) which have the advantage of boosting the performance by setting the maximum CPU frequency to 1200 Mhz. The BSPlayer uses HW acceleration and smoothly plays any mp4 and mkv file, even if you use a hard disk and access the files via OTG.

Hi guys,

Just wanna ask, when I load a custom rom or revert to a stock rom, am i over writing the radio.img too? or is that separate and untouched when switching through roms?

Just asking because im trying to pinpoint a battery usage problem. cheers. :)

(ps, I searched, and cant find any info specific to what i need to know)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtwrk:
if the ROM doesn't specially indicate it has radio, then flash ROM won't effect on your current radio
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectre Nine:
Ahh i see. Does that mean that completely stock un rooted roms re flash your radio with the stock radio? Just wondering as im making a last ditch attempt at fixing this battery issue before returning it to the shop, which i'll have to unroot and lock bootloader for etc. :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suksit:
Normally you can just open the zip package and see if the radio.img file is there. To be sure that it will not flash the radio, open the zip package and take a look in META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script

If there is no line like this:

write_raw_image("some filename here", "radio"),

Then your radio is safe :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectre Nine:
Brilliant stuff, your a genius. :D

I don't mind if it has been, I just need to know if it has or not so i can rule it out as a reason why I'm flying through battery.

Stock Evo 3d SD Card Contents *.zip *Now LIVE*

Here are the Evo3d stock file contents of the SD CARD as you would get with a new phone coming from Sprint. Just format the card and copy only the contents inside the SD directory to the card and boot your phone for a full stock experience with the Green Hornet movie and other files.

Please do not flame me if this is in the wrong section. I thought the development section may be appropriate for this content, given so many may want to have access to it. Thank you.

Directions:

1-Unzip file to directory

2-Open SD Directory

3-Copy all contents of /SD directory to cleanly formatted SD CARD

4-Enjoy

Remember, you will need to have hidden files and folders enabled through tools to view the hidden files located on the root of the SD card zip file to have a full transfer of all content.

Not sure about the evo but the atrix does this and what has worked for me is let it charge over night, leave it plugged in and pull the battery. Wait until the missing battery comes up then put the battery back in and leave it there for about 15 minutes. Reboot into recovery and clear battery stats. You should be good then if the evo is like the atrix in this matter, if not I'm not sure but maybe worth a try! Just be sure to leave it plugged in threw this process until you are booted into the ROM, then unplug.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] spimonkey34:
At&t LTE and Verizon LTE are incompatible so your answer is no.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] kholk:
Epic fail.

LTE will possibly be achieved on INTL RAZR, by Moto or by us. And as far as I know, LTE is LTE, there shouldn't be any uncompatibilities between an operator or another, but I can be wrong on that.

It should be like saying ATT's HSPA+ is different from H3G ITA's HSPA+..... :)

Coming from some examinations, the LTE capability is enabled in the INTL RAZR radio (CDMA is disabled). It's only a RIL problem.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] spimonkey34:
Ah, I missed your sig. Disregard my answer.

In the US the RAZR will not be compatible with At&t. Different LTE frequencies as well as CDMA vs. GSM.
