Android O Beta - No video playback - Google Pixel Questions & Answers

Hi I am running Android Or Beta 2 and have noticed something very strange. When I try to play videos on Instagram, Twitter or even YouTube they all get errors or just never play. Very strange. I have tried uninstalling/clearing data but nothing seems to work

It happens to me too (YouTube). I had to close the app and wait for sometime before trying again.

If the app is not working sometimes you can use the browser to go to http://m.youtube.com. Click a video and it should play in your player.
i have the same problem
I'm having the same problem with the mobile site and the app... none of the videos are working properly. I have to keep clicking over and over again until it plays.
Its on the 1.5 kernel . seems Youtube updated some things on there end. Maybe its coincidence , but when i used the 1.6 or 2.1 dev roms Youtube seemed functioned fine then. We have to wait and see when the new roms come out

QFT - Seems to be 1.5 YouTube app is broken.
Yes Kcarpenter that as well./They just need to fix it wow it sucks
WAIT! Mine works now, but not all movies - thats been a problem for ever. I rebooted and tried again and I can play about 6 out of 10 movies.
I wonder if this is to do with the html5 switchover that youtube is working on.

This really pisses me off. I watch YouTube like all the time. I have a G2 and that has no problems.
G2x just has issues and this YouTube debacle is like the final insult. Browser has stopped forced close on 174 but was forced to stop browser. Its is only two.issues affecting cm 2.3.7
Switched back to nightlies
also Netflix stopped working so went to a backup. No video just audio
miui is a cyan base rom
and the browser version works ok but the youtube app is giving loading issues
so y u just open youtube from browser?easy and same as youtube app
or u can uncheck option that force u to use mobile site
so u can open youtube as desktop site

Try using the latest cm nightly.
it's the rom.... i also had the issue and i still do even with EB 2.3.5 and as well as the cm7 stabled Gb version.... not only with the youtube app but on some of the websites had flash issues where videos were just green lines. so i switched back to EB 2.3.3 stock Gb version. Devs are working as to finding out the problem but still no luck.
I tried the latest nightly 174 and loaded videos instantly this morning.
Will keep trying the Nightly ROMs. Will report back if I encounter the issue again.
Prefer the Youtube app, just faster.
Youtube and G2X usb mount
I am having these two issues first I noticed that phone is no more recognized by windows as usb and now this youtube issue of CM stable 7.1 , I was really liking this CM. If someone is there reading these and can help please help.
thanks
glad to know its not just me and more about the problem
i really hope this gets fixed soon but was it ever stated as an issue before so others could become more aware and hopefully put it in more demand for a fix or something?
Youtube Slow issue found
What I did I uninstalled both adobe flash player and youtube app and using dolphin web browser for youtube. I tried all those videos again through dolphin and got the instant response on my almost 2mega Byte connection. So, I guess I have to live without youtube app.

Well I recently switched from LG Stock Rom to CM7.1 stable on my P990, and have the same issue. I'm glad that its not just me having slow loading of YouTube videos on the phone. Thanks for sharing the information that the nightly build of CM might help solve the issue. How many others have been successful with that build?
I can confirm that recent nightly builds are no longer causing slow loading of videos in YouTube app. I installed CM7.1 #204
I'm happy

Facebook videos freeze

I'm on ARHD 7.3 and with the latest facebook app version. When I try to play any uploaded video on the facebook app it plays for about 2-3 seconds and freezes for the rest of it while the audio is still going. I was wondering if anyone else is having this issue and what could solve this...
I don't think it was like that before. I think it started since facebook changed their layout again.
Same problem. any fix?
I have the same problem. Also appears on YouTube videos.
Any fixes at the moment?
Any suggestions?
Tried to revert YouTube & Facebook to stock versions, didn't work.

Instagram, Vine, Gallery Videos and others LAG!

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.

does it constantly 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 just played a few videos and have no lag running cm11s.

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.

Video doesn't load and when I download it, no video is being output thru VLC.
Also are you using Xposed? ART?

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..
Restored it to latest CM11s thus removing custom recovery, root etc and still same problem
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

Google Photos Videos jerky playback on cm12.1?

Videos play fine when on the phone through Video Player.
If I load Google Photos, play a video there, the playback is crazy jerky. Same video on google photos app on iOS does not do it.
Can't recall having the problem on OxygenOS but was wondering if anyone else had this issue before going back to O2 (1.01 broke touchscreen for me)
Thanks
Simpler request:
Could someone running 12.1 tell me if video is choppy in google photos please? Wish to see if the problem is on my end or an issue with Google Photos.
Many thanks!
Wiped, re-flashed Oxygen OS 1.0 (not 1.01), still same problem with Google Photos video playback. Choppy. The same videos are not choppy on iOS nor on desktop website (in chrome).
Perhaps a bug with Google Photos app?
I have this problem too. I hadn't tried the stock gallery app until I saw this post. It worked fine.
I wonder is its just oneplus related or dies it occur on other phones too?

Searching the web, saw that many users have issue on nexus devices (6 and 10). Seems like the latest versions of Google Photos are to blame. Haven't tried uninstalling current ver and installing old one through apkmirror yet to confirm.
I can confirm this issue.
OPO COS12.1, Google photos last version (1.4.).
Had the same problem on COS12.
When I revert photos app to version 1.0.1 the video plays fine.
Definitely photos app problem.
I will stick to 1.0.1 version of the app until there is an improvement in the app itself.
