Enable Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 to Play AVI/WMV videos smoothly
Summary: In this guide, you will learn how to put/play all AVI/WMV movies on Samsung Galxy Tab 2 with best video quality by converting avi/wmv to Galaxy Tab 2 h.264-compliant mp4 videos
As you see, Samsung's Galaxy Tab 2 supports playing HD video content in a wide range of mulitmedia formats(MPEG4, H.263, H.264 and more). And most of the times we can enjoy AVI, MP4, WMV, MKV videos on Galaxy Tab 2, but things happens when we can not play AVI files properly or missing audio when playing WMV videos on Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 or 7.0. Besides, there lots of other formats (VOB, MPG, TS, TiVo, etc) that Galaxy Tab 2 does not support. In that case, to play these AVI/WMV videos on Galaxy Tab 2, we need to convert them to H.264 or MPEG-4 encoded format first. Here I would share with you a good way that ends up with optimal video conversion for Galaxy Tab 2 for movie fans.
To start. Make sure an application for video converting installed on your computer. If you're looking for ease of use, I've had success using Pavtube's video converter to convert AVI/WMV to Galaxy Tab 2 h.264-compliant mp4 videos. I've found the quality to be excellent, and see no difference when compared to playing the original videos themselves.
The Galaxy Tab 2 Video Converter supports wide range of video formats, like TiVo, MXF, MVI, EVO, VRO, VP6, MTS, M2TS, ASF, MOD, TOD, DV, RM, RMVB, MOV, 3G2, QT, VOB, MPG, MPEG, MKV, FLV, F4V, AVI, WMV, 3GP, H.264, DviX, XviD, etc. Most 1080p, 1080i, 720p, 720i HD footages shot with cameras also can be handled well.
Now, i just take this tool as an example to show you the detail steps on how to put and play AVI/WMV files on Samsung Galaxy Tab 2.
* Choose output profile for the Samsung Galaxy Tablet. Here I recommend you "Samsung >> Samsung Galaxy Tab H.264(*.mp4)". This profile works for Galaxy Tab 2 7.0.
If you using Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, just choose "Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1(*.mp4)" from "Samsung" category. This format is specially designed for Galaxy 10.1 Tablet with HD playback quality and supplies full-screen effect.
Wait patiently, when the process is done, transfer the converted video to Galaxy 2 Tablet. Then you can watch AVI/WMV movies on Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 without problems anywhere. Hope this article helps.
