[Q] Video player issue in jelly bean - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi 4 all.
I'm having a problem with my stock video player. When I'm trying to play a video I'm receiving this message: Currently unable to play this video. Stop play the other video and try again. I don't know what to do to resolve this problem. Somebody can help me with this issue? Thanks in advance. :highfive:

Yep use VLC

Tks for the answer, but I want to use the stock player. I installed the VLC, but doesn't play correctly the video, it looks pixelate and the sound is not synchronized with the video. I've noticed that it happens this unsynchronization in BSplayer. I have the flash player installed, doesn't resolve the issue.

My CSC is Hungarian, but I've flashed the ROM for Germany, because the ROM for Hungary didn't come out at that time. Now, is possible to flash the Jelly Bean Hungarian version, over the German ROM? I have to do something special or I can flash like the first time when I've flashed the German ROM?

Same way you flashed the german rom using ODIN.
Are you having problems with other video files or just a certain one? This could be simply a strange codec used that's not supported by the note... Until you can update the codecs in the note then you may be unavble to play this file. This may be the case if other players are having a hard time playing it as well.

Tks 4 the answer! Yes, I have problems with all the video files, but only in this player. In BSplayer no problem to open the file, but as I've said the video is unsynchronised with the sound... and I wish to use the stock player... after all, why it is on the ROM? Which codec do you recommend to use for the player?
Meanwhile, I noticed that switching between screens freezes sometimes and when I try to open some applications in task manager window, the beast tablet ... makes a screen-shot. I don't know if the ROM is to blame or the shell that I use.

[DEV] Fixing streaming video problems on DHD ports?

As some probably already know some video streams don't work on Desire HD rom ports (this affects all DHD roms ports ), One of them is m.spike.com. We get only audio no video
Here is the log from trying one of the videos
http://pastebin.com/9hK9cDTd
I have tried the most basic and idiotic approach, replacing all called libs with libs from standard Sense Rom. Of course didn't work.
I am not a developer myself, maybe someone with more skills can figure it out

its not just streaming video, mp4 at the native resolution wont work either, so if you record a video at 800x600 you cant watch it back

Someone tried Rockplayer?
I use Leedroid 2.2.f not any HD rom, so I have no experience, it is just an idea.

yep rockplayer works, for all video formats, its a issue with the native android codec or codecs.

i tried to replace libvoH264Dec.so
libvoMPEG4Dec.so
libvoVidDec.so
libvomemedia.so
with standard desire lib files but it makes no diffrence obviously i know theres more lib files associated with the video decoders but i just wanted to see wether i could get mp4 or 3gp working

I am using robis hd rom and rock player does not work for me.
The rom i am using is excellent, fast and stable for me(v14b with d2sd) and everything is working great for me apart from the 720p recording and the sound but no video on various streams. I can live without the former but a solution for the latter would make a great rom perfect for me.
Please try to keep this thread going so we can hopefully get some developers involved and hopefully reach a solution.
I am just a noob i'm afraid so can't be much help!!

rockplayer (premium) works fine for me, it uses its own codecs tho not the native android ones
I've always had an issue with rockplayer being out of sync.
I have an MP4 i did of the mrs when she appeared briefly on question time. (about 20 seconds).
always worked fine on stock roms players but rockplayer it's always oos.
Would be great if devs could sort this for HD roms internal player.

Sorry if i am not understanding but, if i install rock player premium, will i be able to use it to automatically watch videos streamed from spb tv and my player?
I amm having problems using these two applications and m.tvcatchup however bbc iplayer mobile streams work as do you tube application streams.

no you cant use rockplayer to strem from websites, flash works fine though i was watching bbc one on bbc iplayer last night.... i miss coreplayer from windows mobile, you could use that and tcpmp as a streaming video players
I've got rockplayer installed but it doesn't show up as an option to view the file when clicking on a streaming video link - i.e you can only watch a video with rockplayer if you open it using the file browser built into rockplayer...

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
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
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?
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
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.

[Q] can you set the YouTube app to not be seen as a mobile device?

I didn't think it would make a difference using the YouTube app instead of the website but there are a few videos (funimation for example) that give an error saying not available for mobile... so like the switching the browser to desktop agent is there a way to get these nonmobile videos to play in the app?
Yes I could use the browser but the app is a better experiance.

I can run flash content without ADOBE FLASH PLAYER!!!

Hi,
I don't know how it is working but now i can run flash content on my galaxy fit using opera mobile v11.50. It was definitely not working few days back but now i checked and it is working. Youtube, dailymotion, miniclip etc etc. i can see everything . No major apps installed. Just a barcode scanner is the only app i installed few days back. Any reasons guys??? Of course i'm happy but still curious to know why is it happening.

ohk...on whatismyflash.com it is showing "Installed Flash Player: None(or disabled)
and i am using the factory ROM...i did not installed any other ROM ever before also. whenever i open the video page on youtube or dailymotion, it shows a BIG white play button, i click on it and it goes full screen, it loads and the video runs on the basic mobile player. I used to see the BIG WHITE play button before also but couldn't run the video at that time. But now its working!!! I used opera at that time and now still using the same version(automatic updates are disabled ) And of course, i always use the desktop agent to view websites and not the mobile version of websites. Phew...any more gusses?????????????
ok now its clear.if video plays in basic mobile player then you dont have any flash player install and neither you can play flash stuff.the basic use of flash player is to play the video itself on the website screen rather than by mobile player.
and ques about opera not playing that before could be because of an update by them as before we could only download the video by clicking on it.[this functionaly to play flash video in mobile player is common in browsers like dolphine]

flash means "swf files"
all other files can be run by the stock browser using the different available android services.

Video problems

Hey there, i have a problem with youtube on my phone, everytime i load a video, my screen starts flickering, only the video, NOT the hud, i un-installed it, cleared data and tried every thing, but nothing works, could it be my rom or kernel??
Thanks for your time

Hi, maybe some problems with flash player.
Try uninstalling the flash player or update it via the play store.
There is a small possibility that your gpu is ****d up, you can test this by playing a game or try to play a self made video that u captured with your phone. If all works well, the flash player itself is to blame.
Good luck!
??????Question
:cyclops:When did it work last without doing that? Have you changed the device in anyway since then?
reflash the rom
I fixed it, just updated my rom , flash player didnt work D:
Thanks anyways <3
