However, due to the format limitation, sometimes you will find you cannot play MKV files on Galaxy Note 2 or missing audio when enjoying MKV movies on Galaxy Note 2. So how if you want to get these 1080p/720p MKV videos playable on your Galaxy Note 2? Get frustrated? Here you'll find the best solution.

The reason you cannot get MKV videos working on Galaxy Note 2 is simple: the default and downloaded Android Video player on the Note II cannot find a suitable decoder for the codec in the MKV file. To solve these problems, a great method is to convert MKV to Galaxy Note II compatible video formats along with some help from third-party tools.

The above statement is quoted by:
Cannot support mkv videos on Note 2

I am not sure, whether this is true or not.

Another fake Note 2 ( look at his CPU specs ) - dirt cheap only RM 1350 Korean set
Those who are not knowledgeable will fall for it

Theoretically, yes it can...
But bare in mind that some external HDD requires external power to power up the HDD...
Note 2 with USB OTG cable might not able to power up the external HDD but u can give it a try...

So true, a few days ago I tried calling the seller selling note 2 from mudah.my..
Unfortunately, nobody is replying, it just keeps on ringing..
Well, I guess it's definitely con case..

okie. tq and frutie as well for the info. try it 2nite.

I have bought an USB hub from China, superb stuff at only RMB 18 (If I'm not mistaken).
It can power up 1TB external HDD, tried before but not on my Note II as I know it won't work... Mine is in NTFS format.

Plugged in the hub into my OTG, I can use mouse and keyboard at the same time.

What crap is this? I'm using MX Player and never have to convert any video formats.

MX Player is like the best player ever.

High five!

Well I dont have any problem playing any video using mx player...I have been using this app for playing my video since last year.

he loves to do overtime job, let him be lah....

Agreed that MX player is very good.

But when i used it to view MTV in my car pairing bluetooth with the sound system. When disconnected it seem that the Media server is still running, which caused battery drain. I had to clear the data for mx player to solve this issue. Not sure if its caused by the app, my car player or its just me.

As for browser, I prefer Dolphin browser.
The only issue i faced so far is when typing a post in LYN forum, sometimes when i press the backspace the text insertion point will fly to somewhere further top, erasing the text that i don't mean to. Any way to fix this?

also work with launcher??

yes

Positron just ignore him
As in s2 thread he always like create issues
And not everything you read in web is true
His posted article is not a general truth perhaps only certain cases only. That guy is promoting the software n so obvious from his posting.
I have zero issues playing mkv too using mxplayer pro

to be fair to positron, he din mention MX Player. he only mentioned stock player... which is quite true. i have issues with the audio formy MKV file. as i shared earlier, same movie... no problem on MX Player.

but to have to resort to converting the file... sorry... i dun wanna go down that path. its so like some fruit product...

Yes, it plays most of the format flawlessly and I find it most optimized for any phone.

I'm being fair here. He/she said as if converting the video is the only way to play mkv on Note 2. Whereas we can use, and always use other apps to play mkv.

This positron is like not using this Note 2 at all.

As usual it's him. Don't even know whether the purpose he bought his phone is for normal usage or to experiment videos on it.

To be honest i am yet to try the stock video player to play .TP files, which is higher bitrate than MKV i suppose.

But with MX player it play smoothly, so IMO we no need to do those converting etc...

p/s: just tried it, stock player cant play TP files, else i can have my video play in popup window...
