[Q] Weird music playback bug [JB] - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

I noticed i had this thing only happen when i flash JB roms (works perfect on ICS).
Whenever I'm playing music from any player (Apollo, Google Play, Music, Sony Player) it works just as it should but the weird thing is whenever i stop/pause any MP3 track it stops like it should BUT for only 2 seconds then continues to play for another second THEN it finally stop.
I tried flashing different JB roms (CM10, Codename X and such) and they all do that but ICS w/ Sense works just fine (last rom was KingCobra 1.5). Also tried rebooting, closing DSP manager, close all players then trying each separately without other players running, no dice.
Has anyone ever encounter this before? This is really the only problem, well a minor annoyance, and this hasn't happen with older JB builds from October. Is it the November builds? Someone throw me a bone (a metaphorical one) please and thank you in advance for reading my first thread.
AT&T One X Rooted, Unlocked on CM10 11/14 w/ TWRP.

Just an update:
The song actually continues to play in the background but in some kinda of muted mode.
It's like this: Music plays > I hit pause and it completely stops for 2 seconds > then it starts playings automatically but you only hear the first second of it > then it goes into some mute mode where it looks like it stopped but it's actually playing but no sound > you hit play and it gets unmuted but the timer of any player starts to move where YOU paused it, not where the part of the song actually is.

Well I'm kinda shocked I didn't get one response so far, not even a basic 'try rebooting/wipe/flash/check X settings/stop X process'.
I decided to go back to sense based roms for now and currently using ViperXl (which is the best sense based roms I've ever tried so far) and the problem is non-existence so maybe in a week or two after more JB roms get updated I'll give it another shot.
When I do decide to go back to JB I'll make a YouTube video of it so you can see first hand what I'm going through. Cheers.

I have also had this problem. Noticed it with RebelMOD and CyanogenMod. AOKP works correctly but has mms sending bug that I can't deal with. Didn't notice it when I had AOSP roms a while ago, maybe it happened when CM10 nightlies stopped for awhile because of the compiling issues. Sorry I don't have an answer but at least I know that I'm not crazy.

Same damn problem here on my EVO LTE. Sense with ICS is perfectly fine but CM10 has this issue.

Nitrogen 1.1 problem

Has anyone else experienced a stutter in music when playing music with Nitrogen and then turning the screen off? It plays fine normally with the screen on but when ever switching it off it tends to skip frequently.
Using HD2 Cell Evo V1

Hi thanks for the reply, however that is not the problem. When using that "screen switch off button", the music does indeed not stop but it tends to skip and jump, almost as if I was running loads of applications and it was struggling to find the resources to play properly. I don't have anything else running and so this isn't the case. Im thinking it may perhaps be an issue with the custom rom Im using as the manila tab music player doesnt work properly either, guess I should try flash a different rom and see!
I too have this problem - I have the custom O2 ROM. It got so annoying that I reverted to using the Windows music player, which does not share the issue.

its a strange one isn't it. On my Touch Pro 2, scrolling through the list of songs used to be jittery like it wasn't fast enough to handle it, on the HD2, scrolling is fine but suffers the music playback problem, strange!

[Q] BBC Iplayer APP Problems

Im running 2.3.2 CM7 & 2.3.3 Detoxed with netarchy's kernel, and everytime i go to watch a video over wifi on the app the video plays normally for around 15/20 mins then the problems begin.
Video crashes totally but sound continues.
Video goes to small view on the app, with double sound with a delay between the two.
Video plays normal but with the media controls showing constantly and cant remove them.
When this happens i have to go back to the iplayer main screen pick the program again and seek to the position where it crapped out, however if there is more than 15/20 mins left it will repeat the errors again forcing me to seek back to the point where it crapped out again.
I have 10.1 Flash installed and have tried re-installing it and fixing permissions, and these errors happen under 2.3.2 & 2.3.3
Anyone else getting this ?
it's fine on stock 2.3.3
I've found it to be a very unreliable and buggy app in general. So I doubt its any problem with your device.
Just hope they are working on improving it!

[Q] Camera / Video playback

So back when I was on Froyo and GB + root the camera and video playback worked flawlessly.
Since then, I've updated/flashed over to Slim_ICS + Lightning Launcher. I can record video just fine. But when I go to playback any sort of media, whether it be from youtube or facebook or something I've had on my SD card already, or something I record with the camera; the screen with flicker constantly and the frames will freeze (sound will continue to play). If it tap the video it'll pause play back and then catch up and resume. Sometimes it will work after the tap, sometimes it won't. I'm led to believe it has something to do with the latest flash over, since on the two previous builds it never gave any issues...
I also downloaded a aftermarket app ( MX player ) and still the same issue. Any ideas?

Does this only happen on SlimICS + Lightning Launcher?
Tried just SlimICS?
Try any other rom?
Does this happen on CM9 r8? (without lightning launcher.)

It seems to be on the SlimICS + Lightning Launcher.
Previously I was running GB + root + CWM + basic with a twist KJ6 and ADW.Launcher, and everything was good. I have not tried any other roms yet. I'm looking into the next one to try actually. Been thinking about going back down to GB or at least changing to a new launcher.
If it makes a difference, I did jump from GB + KJ6 over to SlimICS without previously having CM7 or CM9 installed. (I did this for two reasons, 1.) as I was doing my research on CM9 I noticed a lot of issues that I wanted to stay away from, 2.) erikmm himself said it wasn't necessary to have either version previously installed.) Now could this be the red-flag issue? I did a complete wipe/factory reset before the flash over. Though I did not flash over the zip twice as one user said to do in order to do the jump smoothly.
Just thought I'd post an update.
Went ahead and switched to GO Launcher. Cleared cache and rebooted phone. Video playback works fine now!
Though I think I'll go back to ADW.launcher. I like it more than GO so far.

[Q] Instagram - purple video on lollipop roms

When lollipop builds were first released for the one, there were tons of bugs. Since then much of them have been cleaned up. I've had two consistent problems, through at least 4 different roms.
1) recording video, and you hit stop. It doesnt stop, it just hangs and keeps recording until you force close and lose your recording. It doesnt appear to be happening in this rom however. So this is solved.
2) The current issue I'm having is that no matter which lollipop rom I use, if I try and take video using the built in camera, it shows heavy people static and can't take the video. I have multirom recovery installed, but I'm only using the primary rom. And I've now switched to AK kernel thinking maybe it was a kernel issue... But to no avail.
Anyone have any tips? I'm at wits end. Only happens with instagram.
Currently running a fresh install of darkobass, with ak kernel...
But it's also happened on CR droid, 2 of the first cm12 daily builds that released, blisspop, and on paranoid android that I just tried before darko.

youtube freezes randomly

youtube app freezes randomly while playing videos. it starts playing again after 10 seconds or so.
i 've also noticed that if i pull up the keyboard in another app (while youtube video is frozen), the keypress sound doesn't work.
it seems like the audio component of android craps out at random times which causes the freezing issues.
happens rarely but it's annoying nonetheless. and it only happens in youtube. never had any audio/video issues with mxplayer.
is it just my phone, or is this also happening to other folks with the z5?
running official firmware 7.1.1. I was using NOBA firmware (7.1.1) before, but i have since switched to Canadian firmware(7.1.1). So far so good, but I'm sure this problem will come back soon enough. I've also tried 7.0 Global firmware and youtube crapped out on that too.
No unlocked bootloaders/roots or anything like that. Running pure stock mode.
Full wipe and flash last rom.
