What is AwesomePlayer in android?

Question

I was looking at the logs on my device for one my apps, however, I see a lot of logs generated by AwesomePlayer. Is this the default media player used by apps that plays videos. I have no idea why this is coming up. Is this a default android app doing this? Below is a sample to see what it looks like.

Device: Android 3.2 Galaxy 10.1

Any hint will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Solution

The awesome player is something that comes equipped on some devices (Mostly newer ones). There is apparently an alternate according to this post.

The Awesomeplayer succeeeded the PVPlayer compenents that were in older devices.

From this it would seem something regarding the way you are trying to play your video is not set up properly.

Side Note:

It is also the name of an application on the market.
