video format not supported? - T-Mobile LG G2x

i'm using both opera and miren and can't get espn mobile site to load videos. opera says video format not supported. miren says you do not have permission to access this. i also can't get espn video clips to load even on full desktop page view using these 2 broswers. it just shows a picture and no options to play. i uninstalled the stock browser since i don't plan on using it. i doubt that has anything to do with. adobe flash is already installed. can anyone help me out?
edit: apparently it does since i installed the stock browser back and it works fine on opera but not miren. the quality of the video is horrible though. is that normal? i don't see any option that relates to that.

Link? So I can try it on my phone?

[Resolved] Web browsing question on flashed ROM?

I noticed that live video streaming doesn't work like on the stock rom or maybe its just my phone. All that happens is it will go to the page but not show the live streaming window, its just blank. I flashed back to the froyo stock rooted ROM and it works fine, can anyone explain why? Thanks!

Did you check your network settings and wifi on the stock.
Yes, the same options were checked off in new ROM as well. So I don't know what caused it to happen. Tango, Qik, and all that works fine. It's only when I go to a web site streaming live video.

Browser Problems

About twice a day, when browsing with the default browser, it will lock up, give the one vibrate followed by two...stay locked up, do the vibration pattern again and then present a black screen. About two minutes later, it appears it rebooted but never showed the Samsung or AT&T logos...
Anyone else having this issue?

Has not happen to me.
It could have been the site you visited. Try Dolphin HD, much better than stock browser.

All of the Galaxy S phones experience this occasionally when viewing certain heavy websites like the pocketnow.com desktop site, especially if you get a few tabs going. Nice to see Samsung still hasn't fixed that. I suggest Opera Mobile.
I can vouch for the browser crapping out on any large website, this was one of reasons I switched from the captivate to the inspire. Used an infuse today and noticed the browser froze right away on anything with flash content.
I like the stock browser but I will try Opera Mobile for a while to see if it helps...it was my browser of choice on WM 6.5

If I remember correctly on my captivate there were a few development who had tweaked the browser.apk to fix rendering issues and freezing. Will have to go back and read changelogs on some of the custom roms

This happened again today...on both of our phones...anyone else encounter this lately? It is starting to become a show stopper for us on this otherwise awesome phone!
I had the same problem. The stock browser is a RAM hog. Use opera mobile, much much better and faster!

Well here's my quandry... I like the stock browser and I didn't have this problem with my Captivate... I am just really hoping that we can find a solution for this. I did reset the browser back to default settings and so far in the past couple days this is not happened... I'm not saying it fixed it but I will monitor it for a few days.
Side note however..
How can I make one of the other browsers the default browser and also where do I go to reset that back to the stock browser?
Thanks...

If you're having problems with the stock browser just switch to an alternative like dolphin or firefox etc. Many improvements over the simple UI and limited functionality of the stock browser anyway.

I'm trying something different now... I think I was on wi-fi each and every time that the browser locked up the phone and rebooted... I am going to try to keep it off of wifi for a few days and do regular browsing see what happens

Opera always works for me.
Think you have to press download, then "try again" and download and it should work.
What he's saying is that it loads a blank page no button to press I'm having the same problem on stock 2.3.4

I noticed this yesterday as well.
I think the problem is that mediafire doesn't like the android user agent anymore.
If your browser supports it, change your user agent to desktop and refresh the page. You'll be able to download after that.
The browser I used was Boat Browser btw. You guys should check it out

There's a downloader app in the market place that's supposed to help alleviate this issue as well as downloading of large files or files that tend to fail. Sadly I don't remember what it's called.

Video playback issues on all Web browsers, help.....

No matter what browser I try to use it keep getting this message
Can anyone suggest a possible solution, thanks.
Running stock ICS.
Edit: it seems that this issue is only with ESPN.com, I played a video on yahoo and no issues.

you don't have flash player
even if you already installed it, it won't work because of ics.
there is one browser who support flash by rendering something on their servers, i don't remember the name but it has a bird on it icon.

If video playback is working on other websites, and reading that error message, then common sense would tell me that ESPN.com has made the conscious decision not to allow their videos to playback on an Android device for whatever reason. Citing that it worked in the past doesn't mean anything because things change.
HULU does the same thing and blocks video content playback on Android.
because some web sites aren't using only flash to broadcast their videos, they are also using html5 with mp4 (i think) the player isn't cool like flash. but it has the basic fonctions.

Streaming In Browser?

Anyone have a surefire way to get streaming to work from sites like atdee.net?
I've tried Firefox, chrome, dolphin, and boat browsers.
Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Keeps saying update codec. I've installed flash 11.1 and thought that would do it.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
