Guest cchalk Posted August 20, 2012 Report Posted August 20, 2012 Does this phone support H264 high profile 3.1 standard definition resolution using hardware decoding? I'm assuming that it can play video mp4s with a resolution lower than 800x480? Thanks.
Guest ScutulatusCrotalus Posted August 20, 2012 Report Posted August 20, 2012 Does this phone support H264 high profile 3.1 standard definition resolution using hardware decoding? I'm assuming that it can play video mp4s with a resolution lower than 800x480? Thanks. Well, I cant say, but I've succesfully played full HD video on this phone (MPEG4 Video (H264) 1920x1080 25fps [Apple Video Media Handler - MPEG4 Video (H264)] with AAC 44100Hz stereo 320 kbps audio - it was kinda laggy (I would say that it was played at about 10 fps).
Guest cutcutcut Posted August 20, 2012 Report Posted August 20, 2012 I've played some sd quality MP4s ok, I can't remember if they were H.264, I'd have to check. It couldn't handle 720p MKV files I threw it at though. Very stuttery and out of synch, unwatchable. I don't think it was using hadware decoding though. There was an option on MX player to switch it on, but it was greyed out, I wasn't able to switch it on. Maybe this has something to do with the open gl thing? I dunno.
Guest Hogweed Posted August 21, 2012 Report Posted August 21, 2012 (edited) MX Player switches to hardware decoding on supported videos just fine for me. Slightly annoying as I have to force it back to software decoding (S/W decoder network option) for streamed media (as opposed to locally stored) or else the sound and picture go out of synch. This is a known problem and occurs on other phones as well (which is why MX Player has the option to default to software on streaming media). But bottom line is hardware decoding is definitely functional on my G300. I am currently still on GB. Edited August 21, 2012 by Hogweed
Guest cchalk Posted August 21, 2012 Report Posted August 21, 2012 Thanks for the replies. I will be buying the phone in a few weeks for replace my broken Huawei U8800.
Guest mark ryan Posted August 27, 2012 Report Posted August 27, 2012 so is it confirmed that H264 high profile mp4 works on this? (i want to buy this phone)
Guest buddn07 Posted August 27, 2012 Report Posted August 27, 2012 Do you have a (small) test file? Happy to try one for you.
Guest pelago Posted August 28, 2012 Report Posted August 28, 2012 Can I ask what video player software people like on the G300?
