Video Player for iOS

wozza2k · 2 Nov 2012 at 14:21

So looking for the best video player for iOS preferably optimised for iPhone 5.

I previously had CineXPlayer which was only any good for divx/avi, and I also had BuzzPlayer which it seems they've taken off and replaced with a new version which I read isn't the greatest, so I am searching for that all in one amazing video player.

Any recommendations?

Streaming?

Plex or Air Video.

If you want videos on your device i know VLC have a couple of apps.

There are many video player apps available for iPhone5 like flex player, GoodPlayer, Video Stream, RockPlayer2 etc. I prefer to use RockPlayer2, It Supports plenty much of video formats such as MKV, AVI, WEBM, FLAC, etc. a universal video player. RockShare, FreeSeek, Custonizable play control bar, Gesture control, Media file management and even TV Support features makes this apps outstanding.

I have been told OPlayer is the one to go for but I am struggling to find that many people vouching for it

Be aware a few apps have begun dropping support for the AC3 codec due to patent licensing issues.

I've noticed this, something to do with a patent dispute so I believe, just as the apps get updated for the iPhone 5 too, great timing. Are there any decent video apps that support AC3 and the larger iPhone 5 screen too?

What's the best one that still supports AC3?
