    • RockPlayerBase Allows You To Play DivX, H264, MKV, and AVI Files On Your Android Devices

    One of Android’s major shortcomings is its lack of compatibility with many audio and video file[​IMG] types. Fortunately, doubleTwist stepped in to fix the audio problem, but what about video playback? That’s where RockPlayerBase comes in!


    Compatible with a plethora of video formats, including MKV, AVI and DivX[​IMG], RockPlayerBase combines great compatibility with a simple interface. Controls are overlaid on the screen, so you can still see the video track whilst using the controls.


    [​IMG] ​


    When testing on the Nexus One, I found playback quality to be predominantly good. I tested a DVD rip encoded in AVI which played back without any problems, although audio output[​IMG] was sometimes a little pitchy and inconsistent.


    I also tested a 720p MKV file, albeit with less successful results. Whether it’s a hardware or software issue is debatable, but video playback[​IMG] wasn’t even remotely smooth, and I was lucky if I got even a second of audio playback before having it cut off too.


    FeelAndroid tested the player with various formats, and found some interesting results…
    MKV
    H264 High profile, 720 x 304 @ 24fps @ 405Kbps
    AAC 44.1KHz
    perfect quality
    14 to 20 FPS


    AVI
    DivX 5, 704 × 1.097 @ 384 Kbps @ 24 FPS
    MP3 @ 128Kbps 48KHz
    perfect quality
    22-24 FPS
    H264 High profile, 848 x 480 @ 24fps @ 302Kbps


    AAC 48KHz
    lots of artefacts
    no subs (ASS, Advanced Sub Station)
    8 to 15 FPS


    MP4
    H264 Baseline profile, 800 × 3.120 @ 448 Kbps @ 30 FPS
    AAC, 44.1KHz @ 151 Kbps
    perfect quality
    13 to 16 FPS


    MP4
    Main profile H.264, 1280 × 720 @ 30 FPS @ 5.994 Kbps
    AAC @ 66Kbps 44.1KHz
    perfect quality
    3 to 6 FPSMP4



    H264 Main profile, 1920 x 1080 @ 10Mbps @ 30FPS



    AAC, 44.1KHz @ 192Kbps
    perfect quality
    1 to 3 FPS
    ​
    It’s worth noting that the FPS count appears on the screen by default, but this can be turned off by tapping on the DivX logo in the control panel.


    RockPlayerBase has the promise to be a great video playback application. Hopefully, the developers will add more support for HD playback from MKV files for more powerful devices coming on to the market. The app currently isn’t available on the Android Market, but you can download the apk for Android 2.1 and 2.2 from here.

    Weren't previous threads closed because rockplayer's closed beta got leaked out and wasn't supposed to be available for the public? Or was that another forum I was browsing.. hehe.

    Just wanted to note, I have tested a version of rockplayer and it had a lot of trouble with flash formatted download's audio playback.

    Yeah with avi and divx playback i had a great experience, however, with flv (flash video) not so much as I previously stated. If they could get that up to par, i would be loving it!

    Has anyone gotten this to work on a non-rooted Droid Incredible? I downloaded and installed it and I just get a blank screen with "RockPlayer" in a gray bar at the top. It doesn't seem to do anything else.

    Yep, tried that. The Menu button does nothing (I get the vibrating feedback from it, but nothing comes up).
