So amazon updated their android app to support their instant video service. I updated the Amazon app, chose a video, allowed it to install Instant Video and nothing plays.
Can any of you other Amazon Prime users test this to see if I got a fluke?

Just tried it on my G3 and it works fine. I only tried a little 20 second snippet from a random show just to test, but it worked.
Only works with Davlik I discovered.

I was just going to say changing the runtime from ART to Dalvik fixed the issue for me.
Thank you to both of you for your responses.

What's up,
So I've had my Tablet Z for just about a month and the only real complaint I have is the YouTube app video quality is pretty bad! What little setting adjustments there are don't do anything to help. It looks like my player is playing lo-res 480p video on an HD screen even when HD is highlighted as the play option.
Netflix, Sony Video player and inline/embedded videos all look great so I know it's specific to the YouTube player.
Hoping that the update that's due out this week will alleviate the problem, part of the update addresses the YouTube app. I didn't know that manufacturer's had their own versions of the Google core apps, learn something new everyday.
Anybody else?
Thanks.
They don't have their own version of the apps. They can't. Youtube, like many other apps, is closed source. The fix includes something in the file system related to YT, but not the app itself. I guess the update is related to videos most of the times stop working in the middle of it for no reason. Embed with a browser, and other apps, work just fine.

Check out the app called viral it solves the problem plus you can use it in floating mode or minimize it to play while screen is off when I started using viral it could go to 1080p which looks gorgeous on this device but for some reason I can only choose up to 720p but it's not tacky like it is on the official app

I think it runs at least 720p on supported videos... I think there is a hack to force use 1080p, not sure...
So I uninstalled the most recent update and the video quality dramatically improves! I'll stay with 4.5.17 until they have another major updates.I'll miss some of the cooler navigation features of the new version, but is rather have the picture quality back.
I'm surprised I'm there's only one this affected.

You're not the only one.... Same issues here, as well as on my dad's XTZ and my Nexus 5.... Seems like the new version of the app doesn't upscale from 720p to 1080p very nicely at all.....
Hi guys.
I need some help with my tablet. It cannot play videos on offical Youtube app (on Google Play). There's only sound, no video.

Please help me if you could, i am using Vido N90 FHD with 4.1.1 stock rom from Yuandao.
Thanks.

Let's see if this helps - go into Settings -> Applications ->All tab
Scroll down to YouTube - tap it. If running, Force Stop - then Clear data - then Clear cache.
Next - relaunch YouTube - and report back if this fixed anything or not.
Cheers..

so bad, it's still showing black screen.
It's weird that it still play audio from that video.
If I watch Youtube from the default Browser the video played fine.
Thanks for the advice anyway. Any more advice?

Hi,
Last week I installed OMNI 4.4.4-20140724-TF101-HOMEMADE on my TF101.
In the beginning everything appear to be functioning normally and very good. Thanks!
Yesterday I noticed that video's imbedded in a website not play in a window (Standard, Chrome, Dolphin). Audio is playing.
Video and the audio are playing normally after zooming the window to full-screen.
Is this a known bug with this ROM? Maybe something else wrong?
Today I see the new Rom 4.4.4-20140815 is out there.
Is the mentioned problem solved with this new release?
Kind regards,
installed Flash Player ?

Does anyone notice this;
(I've also tested this with my friends OnePlus One, manufacturers dates are about 1 month apart)
With instagram videos, vine videos, gallery videos, etc.. When I play them and then pause, I notice when I play it again it lags and the audio countinues to play but the video just stops unless I keep playing/pausing back and forth till the video resumes again. Don't know what this is buts its really annoying. Googled the answer for this and it seems no one has this issue.. I've tried several roms including CM11s gives me the same issue. Any solution or fix?
I think it has to do more with the app loading the video than the phone itself. I don't have issues playing videos in my gallery, but on Instagram and Vine, even Snapchat sometime lag.

Yes. When I play any types of videos and pause them I get a lag (video frozen but audio countinues to play) when I press play again. Sometimes it will lag for 2-3s then continue to play.
Wipe the cache on the gallery, vine, and instagram.
You PM'd me about this earlier. I don't use Instagram, Vine, or Gallery Videos (I use Gallery but I don't notice any lag in videos, I rarely ever use it though).
Some suggestions,
- Have you tried? http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/themes-apps/mod-smooth-scrolling-mod-mahdi-rom-t2840934
- Have you tried any custom kernels? If so, which ones?
- Are these fresh installations of Vine/Instagram/etc? Or are they backups from prior phones. If they're not fresh installations, try @Nexii's tip. If it continues to proceed, reinstall the app.

Same thing happens to me. Happens mainly on Instagram.
Like I might replay a video and the beginning of the video freezes but the audio continues to play. It has done this one every ROM I've used on the OnePlus One. May be hardware related.

I'm starting to believe that too as my other friend is not affected by this.
It's not hardware. Hardware wouldn't make your videos lag. It's software and is caused by your set up. Take a video of the lag if you must demonstrate it.

I'm having the same problem through Windows.But downloading the video to my note 2 is no problem. No Xposed or Art enabled. I tried ART aswell same issue..

No lag on my i9505.

Update;
I flashed the XNPH25R and went on with the phone, the phone did not have any of that absurd lag..
After flashing the next update in sequence, XNPH30O, the lag exists. Maybe related to the firmware updating from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4
On my other phones I'm able to play videos thru Hulu just fine. But on the mate 9 it just shows a blank screen forever. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app still doesn't work. It will still let me stream videos to my Chromecast though
I've had exactly the same problems. I've written a comment to the developers through the play store. You should as well. More people that write more likely we get a fix
Hulu works just fine on my Chinese variant 6gb/128. Although I downloaded my hulu through the amazon store. Maybe uninstall the one from play store and try installing the version through the amazon underground app?
I tried downloading thru Amazon app still has the same problem. I'm going to try one more thing tomorrow downloading the app and side loading it. Hopefully that works
