The latest released Samsung Galaxy S5 with 5.1-inch, 1080 x 1920 pixel display no doubt adds more fun to your digital entertainment. But when you wanna transfer some personal video files like Xvid, FLV, MOV, MKV, VOB, AVI etc to Galaxy S5 phone, you would find the Android OS phone can’t play these videos well or even can’t recognize them. To play and watch movies on Galaxy S5 smoothly, what you need concern first is the Galaxy S5 video format.
So, what video files play on Galaxy S5? What video codecs does the Galaxy S5 support?
From Samsung official website, I know MP4, M4V, 3GP, 3G2, WMV, ASF, AVI, FLV, MKV, WEBM, H.263, H.264(AVC), MPEG4, VC-1, WMV7, WMV8, VP8 video format and codec can be natively supported by Samsung Galaxy S5. For other HD files in XviD, DivX, M2TS, MTS, MOV, VOB, MKV(DTS encoded), etc codec or formats, Galaxy S5 will not open and read.
