Issue streaming from browser

Hi community !
I'm refering to the huge community here because I have an issue with my TF700 when I'm trying to watch streaming videos on dpstream.net
We I have received my tab, I've directly installed the adobe flash player for ICS package.
I'm used to Chrome, so I installed it. When I was going to dpstream.net, I was able to watch movies without any problem.
Then suddenly (or not suddenly but I can't figure what was the trigger) I wasn't able to watch streaming movies anymore. BUT, when using the stock browser (so not chrome anymore), it was still working.
The problem is that, since yesterday, nothing is working ! Neither Chrome nor the stock browser.
What am I supposed to do ?
For your information,
- I'm able to watch Youtube from the browser (so not using Youtube App).
- I'm able to watch movies on dpstream from my laptop (so not an issue with my account there)
- When I'm clicking on Flash Player Settings (on my TF700 / Applications), it opens a browser but empty (no settings available).
Does someone has a suggestion to solve this issue ?
Thanks in advance !

What format is the video streaming in? If it's divix or avi then I don't know if those can be played through a browser. When I've tried streaming those formats I get a unsupported format icon. I can play flash video streams using stock or boatbrowser. I don't know about chrome as I don't use it. I think chrome does not support adobe flash player so it wouldn't work. You can also try setting the browser to load as a desktop and not a mobile site.

[Q] How to default open Video stream in Player instead browser

Hi xperts,
I have watchSeries app in my Note 3 to watch TV series and movies . when i click on any stream link (i.e. Videoweed , novamov, nowvideo etc) that link open in browser and it does not ask to select any player like MX playe,r BS player . It does not work properly ( full screen) sometime in any browser even i have installed flash player and tried multiple browsers ( Dolphine, photon, chrome, opera)
I have tried HUBI but that also does not support all type of links ( vshare, movreel etc ).
Is there any way that i can open video stream links directly in player instead of copy-paste URL from browser bar to players screen.?
VGET is the best option but that has also limitation. It is slow,does not detect lots of embed links . whatseries, videomix and other app does treat it as browser
There should be some plugin for browsers, which detect video stream in link in browser and when we click to play then it should ask to open video in Player instead of running in browser.
any full-proof suggestion would be appreciated .

Have you looked in the settings at the Default Applications and see if that's causing your problem?

Thanks
Thanks for reply. default setting is cleared.
Actaually I am looking something like VGET app. which can be treated as browser and can open video files in Players ( MX player or other )
bcoz Dholphin, Boat and other browsers are not good.

[Q] Unable to use mxplayer on android 5.1.1

Hi all guys !
In the past i used mxplayer for playing video from my browser (chrome/dolphin).
Now, with android 5.1.1 i'm not able to choose mxplayer for streaming online video.
I did these things without any luck:
-full wipe
-change rom (slimlp, cm12..)
-look into app manager for change default app
-use default app manager (from play store) for select mxplayer as default video player. Videos continue to open on stock browser player.
My device: oneplus one, root, broken os rom, boeffla kernel.
Please help, have a good day.

Many browsers has implemented their own players using mediaplayer api.
If you have stock browser try that. It may work.

Is possible to disable this mediaplayer api ? currently on my setup i don't have stock browser, in the future i will try with stock browser.
For now i solved some of my problems doing this: dolphin browser+jetpack+flash player always on (+flash player apk).
Thanks a lot

Were you able to install flash player apk on latest Android 5.1.1 or did you fetch some modded apk?
I have just obtained flash player apk from http://androidpicks.com/adobe-flash-player-latest-apk-download/ as this site claims it can be used on Android 5.0 and later. The same apks are also available on Adobe's archive pages. Seems like these can be used on later versions as well although these were developed for Android 4.0 and previous versions. The pathetic thing is Adobe has abandoned flash for android. And it seems like they are going to abandon it for Windows as well.
Besides, you should also try UC Browser as that still gives option to play videos with external player. Otherwise, it's builtin player is also no less than MX.

Click the button on the upper right corner of Jetpack and then select mxplayer from the list. If it still doesn't work, you can send an email to [email protected]. That's what I always do.

[BUG] or [PROBLEM]: since phone update, MX Player no longer default for browsers HELP

Background: Purchased MX Player Pro. Watch a lot of video in my mobile web browsers Chrome and Dolphin. Often for work (training). Used to be that in either mobile browser, I would browse to the video and when I told it to play MX Player Pro would be the player in which I watched the video, which is critically important and MX Player has video controls (like swiping to go forward and backward) that the system video player doesn't.
This morning my Galaxy Note 5 from Verizon got an update, update N920VVRU2BPG5. Since then, in both browsers on my phone, the video only play in the craptastic system video player. I've looked for a way to change that default and I do not see any options. Again, what I am trying to do is make it be the way it was, with videos played from either of my mobile web browsers Chrome and Dolphin being launched in MX Player by default, not the system video player it seems to have defaulted back to. (To be clear, we are NOT talking about setting a FILE default).
I don't know that this is considered a bug or not, but it's a giant problem.
What's the solution?
Thanks.

This *may* be a a different kind of thing, I've done some more testing in Dolphin and found that when I enable Dolphin Jetpack for Flash, it goes back to working properly. I'm not sure why, my two conjectures are either:
a) MX Player is not in the mix at ALL, but that the recent update swapped my browsing player from Flash based to HTML5 based, and HTML5 video players do not (possibly) support swipe gestures, or
b) By switching Dolphin Jetpack for Flash on, it enable dolphin to properly router the video playback to the MX Player.
Either way, that seems to be the fix for Dolphin, now I have to see if a similar fix can be applied to Mobile Chrome.
Thanks.

@sindyr
If chrome plays on itself it may not possible. If it's forwarded to stock player it might be different issue raised from Samsung's idiotic implementation of default apps.
FYI, in almost all samsung marshmallow devices if you select a app it's always set as default. Unlike LP there won't be a option to select once. Just go to Application Manager > Select Video (If Stock Player is default). From the "Set Defaults" option "Clear Defaults" & set the App Links to always ask. Now, Chrome will ask again to select. But, keep in mind that when you select the any other app it will be the new default.
It's not possible to intercept a html5 video from a browser. Nowadays most of the browsers are implementing their own mediaplayer based on android mediaplayer API.

Choosing Video Player in Browser

Hi all, I posted this in the Android Help thread but got no answer so figured I'd try here instead.
like the title says I'm having trouble figuring out how (or if it's even possible) to make the browser prompt me to choose "Play Online" or "Download" after clicking a video link like it used to on Marshmallow... Assuming I want to play browser videos using MX Player instead of ****ty in-browser HTML5 players, is there anyway I can make this happen on Nougat without having to copy paste the link to MX Player manually?
I use Tugapower Nougat (coming from RR Marshmallow), UC and Dolphin Browser (Flash On-Demand + JavaScript On). For MX Player I'm using latest version with the setting to Play Media Links checked. All the same apps+settings I had on marshmallow.
Is this an android nougat issue, a Rom or app issue?? If anyone knows how to disable the built-in dolphin video player that'd be useful info too. Just don't understand why it doesn't work on Nougat but worked on marshmallow. Any help is appreciated, thanks.
