yes, .vob file needs more resources. I tried playing with command line cvlc with following options and it give acceptable performance with .vob,

cvlc --ffmpeg-hurry-up --ffmpeg-skip-frame=1 --ffmpeg-skip-idct=1 <video_file.vob>

I am planning to overclock my device to 850Mhz. Will update performance with that.

I do not think VLC is meant to be a program which needs hacking on the terminal window.
zimon, what repository is the new version in? i can't find any updated version in this

yes, .vob playback needs more resources and running it on mobile device is too much. while playing with command line cvlc, few options give acceptable performance.

cvlc --ffmpeg-hurry-up --ffmpeg-skip-frame=1 --ffmpeg-skip-idct=1 <video_file.VOB> (http://wiki.videolan.org/VLC_command-line_help)

I am planning to overclock my device to 850Mhz. Will update this forum for same video playback speed.

Seems an awful lot of work to get a resource hungry app to work on a two year old portable chipset. Not to mention needs OC to play decent and that means short battery life.

None the less, your tenacity is to be commended

That said and based on the original date of the first post, this app has been coming for almost a year now.

Absolutely agree with you. Have any of you tried NITDroid and RockPlayer? NITDroid is not yet optimised - but yet this is playing much better than the native VLC agent really..

Yesterday I upgraded to power kernel (settings) and over clocked device to 250-850Mhz (ideal profile crashed couple of time). Vlc player failed to play same .vob smoothly. Command line cvlc could play it better with single option --ffmpeg-hurry-up .
It seems --ffmpeg-hurry-up is suppose to be default enabled in VLC player (as per http://wiki.videolan.org/VLC_command-line_help) but installed vlc player dosn't have it as a default enabled.

Enabling --ffmpeg-hurry-up enabled in VLC can improve speed,

[ from http://wiki.videolan.org/VLC_command-line_help

--ffmpeg-hurry-up, --no-ffmpeg-hurry-up
Hurry up (default enabled)
The decoder can partially decode or skip frame(s) when there is not
enough time. It's useful with low CPU power but it can produce
distorted pictures. (default enabled)

There isn't yet. I _think_ they would need to make one.
Also same time please fix the --ffmpeg-hurry-up as default issue (see above) also.

Yes. Nitdroid/RockPlayer is stunning. It plays anything I throw to it and it plays it good.

Can either of you confirm how this works? Do you need the android port to run rockplayer?

If so, can you run Nitdroid and maemo?

Cheers!
