(mpeg, avi, mkv, xvid, etc are not formats they are containers. AAC, H264, mpeg2, AC3, are codecs.)

Mobo Player is free and plays just about anything. Of course, if the codec, res, bitrate, container, or settings are not compatible with the native hardware, it will have to use software decoding, which will GREATLY reduce the battery life and could cause stuttering (especially at higher bitrates).
