Motorola Xoom HD Playback on VPlayer with Tegra 2 support

First offering of Tegra 2 supported HD playback with the Vplayer App. The video I use in the demonstration is from a site hosting full screen 720p and 1080p trailers for the Xoom but you will see the player with Tegra 2 support fails at an epic level. Pulling up one of these videos on just a slightly larger screen shows they are not of any real significant quality level, so playback should not be that much of an issue.

Disclaimer for Trolls.. This video is not claiming that all video playback on the Xoom is as bad as shown, however video at its current best on the Xoom is not up to standards I expect from a device that was marketed as an HD video playback device. Your acceptance of current playback performance as being good does not automatically mean its good playback.

How is that the Xoom's fault? That someone shouldn't get the Xoom.

@MFizzle777 This video was on the application itself to show how it failed at acceptable hardware acceleration on its first attempt. So no that is not completely the Xooms fault. The Xoom however does lack in HD playback performance regardless of which current player app used. The playback is not as bad as shown in this video but it still lacks an overall fluid appearance.

I have the LG Optimus pad which has the same Tegra 2 chip and I'm very disappointed with the Tablet .. 720p MVK are totally dire as well

HD playback is disappointing on the XOOM, lower res videos (480p) play smoothly though
