I am running RC1 of Cyanogenmod 7 and just noticed that I'm unable to play any videos. I've tried a few different video players off the market including Mobo and RockPlayer with no luck. Anybody have trouble playing videos and get them working?

Hi everyone,
Since I bought my Galaxy S, I was stuck with the stock firmware because CM's ones doesn't play 720p videos with the phone's hardware.
Dice Player works fine, but sometimes it "forgets" it can play videos in hardware mode; all I have to do is to reboot my phone, and it comes back to normal.
I also found a well known player from the Windows world which can play 720p videos in HW mode: BSPayer.
It has one feature I find really useful: playing videos over LAN throught SMB/CIFS.

Thanks for the tip! BSplayer works really well for most videos. You can also try MX Player or Moboplayer. Both have no problem with 720p MP4 videos.
The only problem I still have is playing WMV videos. Both BSplayer and Moboplayer can't play them smoothly. And while MX Player is able to do it, they play with no sound in Cyanogenmod (in stock firmware they're ok). Any help?
Thanks
Edit: After taking a look at the MX Player forums, I've found that version 1.3 can play WMV with sound.

The thing is that lack of hardware acceleration provided by the platform we are stuck to e few video players that has their own hardware acceleration support... For example I really like mVideoPlayer. You can swipe on main screen to seek back and forth in the video. You can also set the sensitivity of it. It doesn't have its own hardware acceleration but on stock firmwares it can play 720p HD videos super smoothly... On CM it doesn't even open the file...
