    Have to say I'm very impressed with the Rock player demo. It is extremely smooth, and it'll slide forwards or backwards through a tv show smoother than VLC or Media Player do on my laptop. It does highlight just how crap the speaker is on the Desire though!

    Fantastic player. Just tried it out with one of my divx movies and it was flawless

    It's probably not compatible with the processor in the Hero, it's too slow. Either that or it needs Android 2.1+

    Same thing here, as I said above I'm using the htc hero and tried installing with 1.5firmware but wouldnt let me, got the 2.1 update and now allows me install the .apk but when I try start the app it bring up the folder selection interface , I select a .avi file to play and it too goes landscape for about 2seconds then exits to the main screen of the handset?

    I suspect its the processer as was said above, anyone else have this running on a htc hero?

    I used astro file manager on my stock meteor desire and got it installed that way just put the .apk on the sd card and looked for it using astro.

    It appears it needs the snapdragon processor to work but future release will work with Legend...

    Great app. Most of my video is 100 - 300mb MKV format so this is perfect for me.

    Now I just need my 16gb SD card.

    $9.99 for the ad free version. Bargain IMHO.

    Aren't they ripping off FFMPEG and the GPL?

    Aren't they a China-based development team? Ripping off is what they do best.:)
    To be fair, they are providing the product for free (ad-supported), or $9.99 for ad-free.

    Anybody else having trouble with this app?

    It worked perfectly until it updated last night, now I can't play MKVs (picture is jumpy and no audio)
