I read somewhere where the dual core snapdragon could play xvid and mkv's. Just want to see if someone can confirm.

[svargas05]

mkv files?

I doubt it man.... I dont know of anything that has native MKV support. That would be great though.

Do anyone know what format a 3d movies has to be to view in our phones? also do anyone know where to download 3d movies?

[acstewart82]

+1. Being able to find more 3d movies would be awesome!

[puchdog]

I think .mp4 will work but the movie will have to converted to mp4. I just will like to know of a web site that i can get them from.

[DavidML3]

Id like to know as well. Im surprised they chose a poor choice of movie such as green hornet. This movie is fake 3d(post production 3d filter). They should have chosen a movie like Avatar, or a animated movie to show off 3d on this phone

[Djblue]

I wish this was a movie...the 3d is amazing

[acf3passion]

So.. I can just take my SD card, put any movies on it and I can watch it on Evo 3D?

It will play .mkv too? What's the full list?

Also, Green hornet is 1.7gb which plays smoothly. Do you think the phone can handle 6-8gb 1080p movies (like Planet Earth compressed copy I have).

I'd be VERY surprised.. some of my older desktops can't play those smooth.

mkv didn't work for me.
I think you need to convert all your videos to work with the evo 3d. I used this tutorial and it worked perfecty with my copy of avatar
The phone can playback 1080p videos so the one you mentioned should be no problem

[DavidML3]

That article state the E3D doesnt like any videos over 2gb. Also isnt the max resolution 720p? Why put a 1080p movie on it and waste uncesseary space when it cant even reach the mark?

[enthuz]

Max playback is 1080p...Max record is 720p

[hyabusha]

mkv didn't work for me.

I used handbrake to convert the 3D file. But when I play It on the EVO 3D It's just a split image... ;(

Is this guide just to convert standard 2-D videos or does this also work with 3-D videos?

If it does 3-D, have you tried converting a 3-D movie with it? How were the results and how long was the process?

[fred72matt]

I used pwnyoutube to download 2 3D movie trailers from youtube. I downloaded them as mp4 1080 and they played and looked awesome.

[WisdomWolf]

I doubt it has native MKV support, but it wouldn't be unheard of. Samsungs Galaxy phones all support mkv natively.

[RomanHelmet]

Download vplayer from the market. There's a trial, and it costs about 5 dollars. I played a 720p h264 mkv file with subtitles almost flawlessly.

[Djblue]

When playing the3d video did you press menu, than 3D. If that still doesn't work for 3d you may want to use dvdfab

[frankie945]

I just used youtube downloader to download a gopro 3d trailer. Works great just make sure you download it in mp4. Your good to go. Here is a link to the downloader.

those aren't movies though....just youtube videos

[jcthorne#ac]

Trial and Error....

I can tell you that h.264 video at 720p, AVC level 4.1 with 5 ref. frames plays fine. This did not work on the 4G.

AC3 audio is still unsupported. Likely like the 4G, only AAC audio....bummer that it does not support the full mp4 format spec. This means that connection of the 3D via HDMI will not have DD 5.1 surround sound either.

HTC needs to publish a spec advising the encoding limits. Perhaps an aftermarket player could be added to support things the built in one does not. It would have to use the built in hardware decoder to work though and none of the the current market apps do this. That is why rockplayer does not work in hd on the 4G. Might on the 3D with its better processor. Will give it a try.

Do these converters convert the movies in side by side? Cause if don't we can c it. I downloaded a 3d movie but it wasn't a side by side and it didn't work for me.

[trup522]

So surprisingly, I'm really impressed with the 3d part of the EVO 3d. My only problem is, where can I find more 3d movies besides the green hornet? I thought that the blockbuster on demand app would have some, but searching for 3d brings up movies that don't explicitly say they are in 3d and I don't want to spend the money to find out if they are or not. So besides YouTube and like 4 games from gameloft, where the heck is the 3d content?

[chubbs123]

I think that's one of the problems right now. Not enough content available in 3D at this moment, but I think you will see that change in the very near future with the release of The Evo 3D, LG Optimus 3D, and Thrill 3D.

[dwaynewilliams#WN]

just guessing, but I don't think there is a whole lot of 3D content now because there aren't really a lot of mobile devices with 3D technology. There should be more in time.

[monty22001]

3D is still in its infancy. There isn't a whole lot of content, especially for mobile devices. It'll get better though. Can the Evo 3D play 3D from Blu-ray over the MHL?
