[Solved] any fix for video playback in GSI? - Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) Questions & Answers

Hi, I tried 3 gsi rom's for our device and I found that the video codec or something else regarding video playback is not right :crying: because when I play any video in YouTube it plays only audio not the video and sometime the video glitches very badly but audio works fine. So my question is that can it be fixed? By flashing some zip or overriding the codec or something else , it doesn't happens only in yt app it also occurs in other video players using HW Codec.

I used a bunch of GSI ROMS and I faced 0 problems playing videos. It must be something else. Did you follow this guide correctly?

Hi, could you recommend the best GSI rom you have ever tried?

FIXED : I think the issue was with the one ui rom itself, I downloaded quantum rom which was a little modded ver of stock pie (Samsung one ui). So, flashing GSI over that rom was giving me video playback error. Therefore I simply flashed official pie rom through Odin and flashed GSI over that and it fixed all my video playback issues.

Everyone will like a different based on their needs. I use HavocOS v2.8. You should also try LiquidRemix. And see which one you like.

I found the problem. When i switch my display size from 1080p to 720p, the video playback issue starts. So, I switched back to 1080p and everything is fine.

Other users have also reported similar issues. I would try tweaking the settings in DSP Manager to see if that helps but the video drivers in CM7 are not fully made and i think that may be causing the problem. If you regularly watch videos on your phone the only solution would be to revert back to a froyo ROM.
I would wait for CM7 to be complete first
Try this:
- Copy alpha7.update.zip/system/lib (whole folder)
- Paste it in alpha8.update.zip/system/
- Install the update.zip and choose 'fix permissions'
It might work.....

Why don't you try it???Video recording will work perfectly but after some time when you will go to record video it will fail without any reason but will work surely after reboot....
i can try it but i do not know about the battery backup of the rr rom.becauese to explore bugs in it.i need to use it for some days.BTW the fix you gave for CM13 rom..does it solve recording issue? i have used that cm13 for like a fortnight and i was content with it...
---------- Post added at 05:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:18 PM ----------
also ..if you have tried both RR and CM13 ...which one would you suggest to be best as daily driver.Consider battery backup as well.
Google camera is not working for video recording

is vedio chat on duo or messenger working? and whatsapp audio calls?
i tried the installation file with TWRP
(now the camera seems to be recording, the file is stored, but there is only the first image and no sound.
is there an extra step ? permissions are set during the installation ?)
ok, after a "clean" install it is working fine !
what i've done:
re-flash RR rom , flash final fix, wipe cache and dalvik (i keeped data)
so working : microphone for apps like google voice... , sensors for screen rotation, camera + video, ans till now everything
thanks

Bro I have told if video recorder freezes,you can make it run again by rebooting and play the videos which you have recorded then,not before rebooting...and videos recorded before rebooting will still be frozen....only sound a still image...
But I am finding a solution.....

Thanks.. I know the dev who made this file.. Also tested the same while this created in multiple oreo ROMs.. it's same like we're already using Footage as a workaround.. But still we cannot send Videos on whatsapp & maybe on some other social media apps.. We need a hardware level fix.. not a Software level which we already got a long ago...
if snapchat is broken then hell no

No Audio

First I installed Validus 8.1 ROM with Magisk, next I tried Resurrection Remix 7.1 with Magisk. I am having an issue with audio coming from any type of video- VLC movies, YouTube, etc. The videos play fine (in720p, of course) but I get no audio from any of them. I also tried music files on VLC with no luck, nor will they play on the stock RR music player or Power Amp Pro. The stock music player did work with Validus ROM.
So what am I missing here? Do I need to download/install a codec package? Do I need to install another kernel? What am I overlooking here?
Thanks!

Yes it is working without custom codec.So the problem is with custom codec.

Yes, it appears that you are using an older version of a custom codec by renaming it. Please use a custom codec built from the latest sources, and you shouldn't have this issue.
Yes I Am using now latest custom codec it is working now.
I have the same problem on my Xiaomi Mi Box S. I've downloaded latest custom codecs (v1.32.0) and installed them from here, but subtitles won't be displayed.

To anyone who is facing the same problem. What I did is update the MX player pro. Though the update was not available on the playstore but I updated it from the official website. This problem is due to custom codec for me and for most of us. Just update somehow and use latest codec as mentioned above already by MXPlayer.
