flash videos dont work in browser. - T-Mobile LG G2x

Using Hellfire ics, stock browser and dolphin do not let me play flash videos for some reason, I can hear audio, though.
Boat browser lets me play flash but keeps crashing whenever I rotate the screen.

You download flash player?
I heard there was a problem being addressed with the rotate fc tho, I think people are using chrome...

Yes, version 11.

Okay well get Google chrome and rotate the screen prior to starting the video and you should be fine

I've noticed this problem in Opera too.

If you are using YouTube, you must play in high quality, otherwise the video playback won't work properly.
Kind of inconvenient, but ics is still new for us.

Could be worse... you could have to watch in regular quality all the time lol

Video app only partially plays vids

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.

Did you update to flash video 10.3? because if you did the update is busted and gives horrendous problems on the G2X.
This is also true with the youtube update, so don't update to the new versions...

Try using the latest cm nightly.
it's the rom.... i also had the issue and i still do even with EB 2.3.5 and as well as the cm7 stabled Gb version.... not only with the youtube app but on some of the websites had flash issues where videos were just green lines. so i switched back to EB 2.3.3 stock Gb version. Devs are working as to finding out the problem but still no luck.
I tried the latest nightly 174 and loaded videos instantly this morning.
Will keep trying the Nightly ROMs. Will report back if I encounter the issue again.
Prefer the Youtube app, just faster.
Youtube and G2X usb mount
I am having these two issues first I noticed that phone is no more recognized by windows as usb and now this youtube issue of CM stable 7.1 , I was really liking this CM. If someone is there reading these and can help please help.
thanks
glad to know its not just me and more about the problem
i really hope this gets fixed soon but was it ever stated as an issue before so others could become more aware and hopefully put it in more demand for a fix or something?
Youtube Slow issue found
What I did I uninstalled both adobe flash player and youtube app and using dolphin web browser for youtube. I tried all those videos again through dolphin and got the instant response on my almost 2mega Byte connection. So, I guess I have to live without youtube app.

Well I recently switched from LG Stock Rom to CM7.1 stable on my P990, and have the same issue. I'm glad that its not just me having slow loading of YouTube videos on the phone. Thanks for sharing the information that the nightly build of CM might help solve the issue. How many others have been successful with that build?
I can confirm that recent nightly builds are no longer causing slow loading of videos in YouTube app. I installed CM7.1 #204
I'm happy

[Q] Videos won't play from apps or browser?

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?
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA
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)

[Q] Video pausing

I'm using the Dolphin browser but I tried the other browser suck as the stock one and Opera. When I'm watching anime on dolphin browser, I use anime44.com. Every few minutes the video pauses for an unknown reason and yes it's usually buffered by the time that happens. I have to fast forward a bit so it can re-buffer and w8 until it starts to play again. Then, I have to go back and re-buffer it again to start playing. I'm using Jelly Bean. Any1 know how to fix this?
I doubt this is a problem with your ROM or even your phone. It is probably a Dolphin problem. Have you tried using the Chrome app?
Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
Yes I did but Chrome doesn't support flash
Maybe try using the request desktop version button on chrome. Or use the same on dolphin and it may help you out.
