Before I purchase CorePlayer can someone please verify that CorePlayer is able to play 640x272 x264 video and AAC-LC audio on the X51V without lag? Basically what I'm wondering is if it possible that the X51V, along with CorePlayer, has the processing power to play these types of videos without lag. If not I'll just stick TCPMP and XVID video and MP3 audio. Thanks.

I am sorry, but I simply do not understand your post.
What is a 640x272x264 video? 3 dimension??
CorePlayer will play AAC files (as will TCPMP) but I have no idea what AAC-LC audio files are.
1. x264 is a free software library for encoding H.264/MPEG-4 AVC video streams
2. 640x272 is the resolution I'd like to encode
3. AAC-LC is the "Low Complexity" profile for Advanced Audio Coding (AAC).
I'm sure CorePlayer won't have a problem playing AAC-LC. I'm just trying to find out, from experience, if anyone has has success using this player with H.264/MPEG-4 AVC video streams. Thanks.
UPDATE: Just to add a little more information about my encodes. I'm using MeGUI to encode movies using x264 codec HQ-SLOW profile and CT AAC codec CTAAC-LC-96Kbps.

Thank you for your explanation.
I am afraid that I cannot help much.
CorePlayer will play MPEG-4 files but there is no mention of AVC.
I don't use MPEG-4 so I cannot tell you if there is any lag.
Unfortunately CorePlayer does not have a trial download (unlike virtually all other software in this price range). If it did then you could try it and see. Maybe they will have a trial download one day???

CorePlayer is capable of playing back the h.264 video, but I don't know about the audio codec. I have encoded mine with simple mp3 audio. I think you might have trouble driving that resolution -- I've gone back to a 320x240 baseline for my videos and they are no problem. I think I did one 640x480 at a low bitrate and had about 95% playback.
If you post a video encoded as you describe above, I would be happy to test it. Either post a link here or send me a PM.

Try this Quicktime trailer. Right click save as. Change the file extension from .mov to .mp4. This isn't the best example because I've heard that AAC is stored differently in .mov than .mp4 but it's just a test. Please report back. Thanks.

It plays it, but not at full speed (about 85%). So to answer the original question, CorePlayer does support h.264 video and AAC audio.
It is watchable, but the frame drops are obvious. The audio continues to play correctly though. I'm confident that if you dropped from 640 to 320 you'd be fine.

Just to add on:
Coreplayer, palys x264/h264 at 640 or higher, but got around 10fps... not the usual 25/30fps for other mpeg4.
I also found it annoying that coreplayer couldn't browse the network, but I have discovered that in Resco Explorer, if you map the network share, then in the preferences, set the network to display as "Network folder" rather than "My Network", you can browse to any of your mapped drives in Coreplayer. Just browse to the "Network" folder to find all your mapped drives.
