Rock Player - MKV Issues
 

Just curious if anyone else is having stuttering issues when playing DVD rips in MKV format? Before you suggest re-encoding, my whole movie collection is in MKV format, and I'm not about to rip them all again into MP4 or re-convert them from MKV into MP4.

I'm wondering if it may be an SD card issue (being only a class 2 card) as well, though 480p video shouldn't use up that much card bandwidth...

Are you using the standard Samsung 8GB Class 2 SD card?

one thing I'm noticing is that when playing a video after a couple of minutes, it stops playing and returns to the menu,.

I've dled a few mkv movies they played fine on rockplayer,i have a 16 gb class 2 sandisk

I have Rock Player and I noticed that it doesnt play every movies format. But I've been using Rock(divx)Player and it plays everything. The only problems is it keeps stopping during playback and returns to the menu of movies

A class 2 card should be plenty to play 480p..most of the time a class 2 card would go at same speed a class 6 or even 10 card goes for consecutive reads..only time it starts to vary is when the card begins to fragment.

That said Rock Player uses "Software Decode" rather then hardware decode, hardware decode is a lot more efficient, in software decode it puts all the pressure on the cpu/gpu..even though the movie is 480p thats only the resolution there are other things that can effect it such as filters and etc...its probably likely that the snapdragon cpu/gpu cant keep up with the processing power required.

As for subs..there are different formats, such as .sub, .srt, .ass that are embedded into the mkv..make sure that the player supports the embedded sub format.

I have a class 6 16GB card and have never had any issues with videos stuttering, MKV or otherwise.
