Just noticed my One X video capture crashes everytime I use it, the camera still takes photos but the second I hit the video button it just quits.
I've only tried to record video once before and it was fine, but this was before the update was pushed out.
It's running stock 1.28.401.9. Please Help.
Have you tried rebooting your phone?
Hey guys when ever i try to play 720p hd videos on my xperia active running ics 4.04
i get the error message "sorry,this video cannot be played"..and after this i wont be able to play any
videos till i turn my phone on again..and then for few minutes it plays smoothly and again it stops with that message..but in gb i never faced any such
issues with the same videos
i think it may be due to phones gallery app..so i opened those videos in MX player but there the video plays in S/W decoder mode and i cant change it
to H/W decoder mode because H/W decoder mode isnt available u can see that in the below screen shots.but after restarting everything will be ok ..
i formated my memory card but still the same ..only modification i made was that i rooted my phone..
PLEASE HELP...

Seems to be some kind of bug. Have you tried downgrading ICS from 4.0.4 to 4.0.0 (vanilla)? If you never encountered this problem before it's most certainly a software problem.
I don't know what kind of device you have, but there could also be some kind of compatibility issue. Try downgrading to vanilla or GB and see what happens:fingers-crossed:
I've experienced that on my S2 running 4.0.4 aokp.. but in my case it won't play 1080p high bitrate and .mkv videos.. tried mx player and i got the same problem.. on stock rom however, it plays fine and smooth without third party apps..
I think it's a matter of codec/libs that are require to play such file.. it's one thing that is still missing on aokp builds..

As the title above, what causes this? I play a 720p movie in my Sensation using the MX Player and it have some distortion in some part, the distortion last for 3 - 6 sec though. After that it was normal but after around 5 minute or such it appears again. And i use the jelly bam rom. Is it because the codec? But some vids in game show that problem too.
Do i need to turn off like force 2D in the dev or such?

I have SGH-I997 and this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2232538
Final Build.
The problem is in Video Recording, Camera flicks a lot and then sound flicks too when I view the video recorded.
It's seems like screen is refreshing or something.
It flicks when there is normal light. In low light it doesn't.
U can see the video here:

Is there any solution to this?
did you even try searching?
There'll never be a fix for that unfortunately becoz of Samsung's custom chip and the old kernel this phone is using as no new official source code for ICS or JB has been made for this phone
All ICS+ ROMs for infuse will have this skipping. Use standard mode 480p for video recording without skips!
You can also try to tick these in Developer settings:
Disable HW overlays
Force GPU rendering for 2d
Force 4x MSAA
These changes can sometimes enable 720p hd video recording without skips ( if you have not used your phone heavily, it may work. If not then standard video recording only)
These settings also remove skips from hd video playback on your phone. But they increase battery use however

This is because the phone cannot record HD/720p videos at 25fps with normal settings.
Either use standard/480p for recording which is fine or use
the magical 3 ticks mentioned in developer settings to remove video playback flickers, but 720p recording will continue to flicker but reduced flickers or no skips at times
See your autofocus time for blurr?idk

thanx for the tip Fullmetal...however, i changed my video record quality to SD 480p and the flicker stopped but the view is still blurry...the camera only focuses perfectly on very very close objects but becomes blurrry at a slight distance from the object.....i even used the magical 3 tricks in developer settings yet it is still blurry and equally changed the focus mode from auto>macro down to face detect...yet its still blurry in all of them.....plz what can i do to make my camera sharp....thanx alot for your help:good:.....i appreciate...
Try reducing the autofocus time in settings,put JPEG photo quality to normal or fine , but not superfine!
Try cleaning your lenses or might be that your camera unit is damaged??

Device Manufacturer & Model: LG Nexus 5
Android Version: 5.0.2
Rom Info: CM12 02/28 Nightly, tested also on CM12 02/15 Nightly
Detailed Problem Description:
Hi. I have encountered a very specific issue with MX Player. When I am playing full HD portrait video and next video is full HD landscape, the Android video driver seems to completely crash in the event when videos switch. E.g. when portrait one ends and landscape one starts playing. Sometimes the device freezes with corrupted graphics, sometimes it recovers, but graphics are shifted and reboot is needed to resume normal operation.
I have reset the settings to default when reproducing the issue and only setting I am using is Display / Settings / Screen / Orientation : Auto rotation. I am holding the phone in portrait, so basically the first video should be full screen on my phone and the second should be scaled down a lot to fit in portrait. It happens with both HW and HW+ codecs.
I have recorded two short videos which can be used to reproduce the problem. I have also recorded the behavior on the phone using another camera (this time the phone "kind of recovered").
Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Install MX player.
2. Set Display / Settings / Screen / Orientation : Auto rotation
3. Play attached videos when holding the phone in portrait, the crash should appear when the first ends and the second starts.
See recorded video for details.
Logs from MX Player
Video 1 - portrait
Video 2 - landscape
Issue recorded using another camera to show what happens on the phone
It works in default video player and does not cause anything similar. I did not have a chance to try it on stock ROM yet. However, I have a lot of videos with different sizes and switching between them does not cause the issue. Just full HD videos.
Let me know if any more details are needed.
It happens on stock 5.1 too. Very annoying if you have mix of portrait and landscape videos recorded.

It looks like ROM issue if HW has same issue.
FYI, HW is default media player actually which is provided by the OS.

I did some more testing. It happens on all factory images I had for Nexus 5, 4.4.4, 5.0.1, 5.1. All of them exhibit the same problem. I tried also the SW decoder, but that did not tell me anything, as SW does not follow the tag for portrait orientation, so the portrait video showed up as landscape anyway.
Now the interesting part is that default player does not crash like that, when switching between the videos. But it takes longer to switch. It seems that it deletes the whole drawing surface and starts it again. Contrary, when switching videos in MX Player you can always see last frame of previous video stretch to the following video size before it starts playing.
