Samsung S4 cannot play MP4.Video from Sony XAVCS - Audio Codec not supported

Hi,

I download the video file from my Sony RX100M3 which has XAVCS format (basically MP4 like AVCHD but with more detail preserved and bigger file size).
when I try to play in it in my Samsung S4, it keeps saying audio codec not supported.
I've tried to use many different apps in Play Store like MX, VLC Player, etc but none can play it smoothly.
The only one can play it was MX but the video played like in slow motion mode.
Can someone please help? Thanks in advance.

Well, it just doen't have the codecs. Try converting it on the computer.
It's laggy due to high resolution, bitrate, or not perfect decoding.
