I've been using this app and have run into a problem. There is no audio and I get. Little error message at the top saying this video is not optimized for mobile. However when I try to play an HD stream it works fine. Can anyone else duplicate this problem? TVnow lite is free in the market and I was using the Simpson's as an example. HD streams work great but regular ones have no sound. Does anyone know of a possible solution to this
Edit: I'm having the same issue with playon now. All video no audio. The volume is Turned aall the way up. Any ideas?

Question: Hi there
the stock video app on my tab plays videos partially then stops and goes back to the video list. Is this a known bug and if it is does anyone know how to fix it? If i access videos via the file explorer it plays fine!
Also is there any way to play all videos continuously and randomly or a player that does this?
Thanks

Hmm. Playing the video partially is weird. What if you keep tapping the screen? will it finish playing?
If you click on the menu button, there is a option that says "Auto Play Next".
Hi there
the video stops suddenly so i am unable to tap the screen. It then returns to video app screen. The same video will play fully if accessed via the file explorer, that's the weird thing. This means i can not use the auto play next feature within the video app although the video app is what plays the video when opened via explorer.

Does this happen on all video's?
Hi there yes it does?

Have you tried any other video players just to see if it also happens outside of the stock player?
Yes, i jave tried numerous apps such as qq, zimly and mixzing and they all work fine. They just do not have what i need, which is the ability to arrange videos in various orders such as date or size as well as auto play next or random play. The stock player is perfect for this need. As above, if i open.the videos via the my files folder it uses the stock app to play the videos and the problem is gone. This would be fine but this way you lose the ability to auto play video. Its extremely frustrating! The video app seems to play about 2 mins of videos then audio goes slightly jerky and it stops and returns to app. Is there a way to re install the video app? Thanks

Reinstalling the video app would require Root. Have you done that or considered it?
By advised rooting does invalidate your warranty. Samsung issued a newsletter to all service centres advising them if they received any phones that had been rooted they were not to carry out repairs under warranty.
Anyway, has it happened all the time since owning the Tab or has it only started playing up recently?
If it has been playing up all the time it may be something to do with the codecs of the video where when you select direct from the player it picks up the problem but misses when you select the video using a third-party selector (My Files you mentioned).
If that is the case there is nothing you can do about it other than ensure your movie files don't have the same codecs.
If it has been playing up only recently it will be some form of corruption that has crept in.
The only way you are going to get around this is either root your Tab and reinstall the Player.app (providing you can get hold of one that is).... or carry out a Factory Reset that should clear the problem.
Hi thanks the advice. I will try a factory reset abd hopefully that will work as i do not want to root the device.

Have you looked at real player? I noticed that es file manager will pop up as a choice as well when playing videos. Real Player can be kind of funky looking when it stretches widescreen.
I don't know if this is what you are looking for. I have been getting fc's after trying that "killall mediaserver" video fix. Don't know if related, but it is weird. Just fixed permissions to see if that helps.

Have some roms to test, but then i will reply, if this particular 3d player is as good or better, or worse than stock :cyclops:
i use mx video player. free in playstore.
Great touch/sliding features for brightness and volume plus works perfectly with non-DM locked 3D video files. :good:
3dvplayer is very good. Personally I use
MX Player on the market has also supported 3D videos for a while (no depth change option though)

Of course you can't. That's because CM Roms don't support the 3D and HDMI features.

mx player plays 3d videos in cm. also you take 3d photos and video but you cant view 3d photos
Good
it works pretty good on my o3d:good:
How do you get MX Player to do 3D? Also has anyone else noticed that CM7 doesn't play. Video in full screen properly? Sometimes too small sometimes offset left or low, sort of stopping me from using it. CM7 does seem buggy to me.

yes i played 3d videos in CM7. I turned off auto rotation (system settings-display). after that select only 0 degrees and turned off animation (Settings-CM7 Settings-Display I dont remember it now") and Edit mx player settings to always use landspace mode while playing.
that is all. i can play 3d videos without bugs. ( If you dont turn off rotation video gets bug. video starts shaking)

That works for 3D but for all normal video (on my phone at least) the video is offset left and low. Not sure how to adjust this, anyone else have this problem? I attempted a screen shot but it just turns out black while playing video.

Last update of 3dvplayer 4.0.0 has some bug 'cause can't play as "system player" (hardware) on O3D
I've [ROM] DNA_GB 3.3.3 V21E base.
Can anybody confirm this?

Ver 4 No good here either... just keeps replaying that darned annoying intro over and over again if I try to play any video.

With older versions, still could not stream with their network feature (only have sound) but manages playback of the downloaded video file OK with both moving pictures & sound. Proprietary .3DV extension for these files ? Seems very low resolution for the files I happened to try. But its free...
What is the experience for the rest of you?
Sent from my LG-SU870 using xda app-developers app
After the ICS update, I tried again and the network feature of this player is now working! I'm running an older 3.x version.
Also I came across a video file they hosted that was of decent resolution! If it's about 400M for 60min of 3D vid then it should look fine. It varies from 1 vid to the next so keep digging... they're not all low rez blurry messes!

Hey I'm having a problem and wondering if anyone is experiencing the same thing or knows anything about it.
Whenever I try to watch a video I get some kind of playback error. I can play videos I already downloaded but if I try to watch from youtube or any other app or from a website in my browser, I get an error.
This started a few weeks ago and Its getting extremely annoying.
If anyone can help that would be awesome. Thanks in advance.
Are you using a custom ROM?

Oh yeah I'm running CM_Merged (the last release) sorry for leaving that out.
Thanks for the reply!
Youtubes broken, and video player is missing on rage, try using rock player for streaming and use youtube 2.1.6 apk, might work better than the current youtube app.
thank you so much! any ideas on other apps too? (like adult swim, onion, etc)
Sent from my SGH-T839 using xda premium
Not sure for the other apps.
When I watch a video through YouTube or chrome/Facebook it distorts with white and color lines. If I watch a video through the play app or watch a video already on my phone it's fine. Has anyone had this issue it kind of sucks trying to show off your new phone and you can't even play a YouTube video clearly
Also b4 anyone suggests it I unchecked the nuplayer option in developer settings and it still does the same thing
I guess no one else has had this issue?
