[Q] No prompt to choose video player lollipop/videos playing inside browser - General Questions and Answers

Hi guys!
Im on a OnePlus One and recently updated to lollipop
One of my main problems is that any video that I play will play using the browser's internal player which looks like this http://i.imgur.com/oMhlDXE.jpg
(Yes that is from pr0n but I needed a quick screenie)
So as you can see at the bottom, that is the video player all videos play with
I have tried multiple browser's including chrome, naked browser, lightning+ and now browser pro
If I play a video on my SD card the prompt to choose a player does show up
Using dolphin browser, I have to set my user agent to desktop for it to play using dolphins own player
Any help would be much appreciated!

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.

Hi!
Download Dolphin Browser from Google Play.
and then go to:
dolphin lab - search for it in Google
and download flash player
Set flash player as "always on" in settings of Dolphin Browser and set user agent as PC.
You can also download adblock from Dolphin Lab but in some cases you need to disable it (sidebar) to watch a stream.
Without dolphin browser and flash player I dont have any sound as well:/ Maybe somebody will help with this issue? I would prefer to watch streams without flash player (it "eats" my battery really fast) but without sound I stay with the flash player solution. Soon I will have the Lollipop update and it seems that flashplayer no longer works with Dolphin Brower under Android L.
PS. Im not allowed to post external links (I need at least 10 post on XDA forum) so if you have a problem then send me a message.

Thanks fo
Thanks for your reply.I use android stockbrowser for watching live streaming through flash, but i think the quality of video is better playing it by 3rd party media player.I tested also other media players but unfortunatelly no sound!!!Maybe the fault is hiden not in media players, but somewhere else in the decryption of the audio files.

[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.

[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.

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.
