My phone has had the error report screen for shell32.exe come up several times (over the past few weeks).
Also If i click to watch a video on a website It launches HTC streamingvideo player and that crashes after it starts buffering.
So I tried WMP, pasted the address in the Open URL screen, then it crashed too...
Any ideas on this?

When I add new music to my internal storage via Active Sync and WIndows media player, all files are transferred correctly, so until now no issues.
But when then navigating to the Music tab in Touchflow3D, The screen says it's searching for new music (no little circle on the toolbar appears) and stays there forever searching.
After 1 day I decided to reset the Device and then when going back to the music tab, it searched again but now got the little circle running in the toolbar and after 1 minute all the files were scanned.
I'm using build 35
Anyone else having this issue or is it normal you have to reset your device after new music has been loaded ?
Or is there a tweak or option I didn't see yet ?
yep having the same issue - i have not been able to find a solution so am going to try getting shot of the music tab and install S2P
try updating your library via windows media player
Yeah i tried this - i deleted the file in HTC under apps data to force a new search but no joy - I can add 1 or 2 files and it works as soon as I put a good few on it stops working no matter what!
I'm having a problem playing videos from the gallery app.
I can see them in the gallery, but when I click on them I get a message saying "Unable to play video".
If I try to open it from Astro I get "File type <WHATEVER> not found"
However, if I open Rockplayer it works fine. I'm assuming it's because I used TI to delete the stock video player app (thinking rock would just take over), but I can't say for sure.
Has anyone else seen this? If possible can someone link me to the original video player app so I don't have to flash back to stock to get it?
Did you try clearing the defaults in settings?
Unless I am thinking of the wrong thing (settings > applications > manage) I have the following options that sound like they could be applicable (meaning there might be some I'm overlooking):
com.samsung.mobilevideo
com.sec.android.app.videoplayer
rockplayer
none have any defaults set.
is there a way to just globablly reset the defaults?
problem solved
Go to settings, all programs, gallary setting, clear data, force stop if it is currently running, disable the app, wait for few seconds and again enable the app, on first start it will ask default video player select whatever u want and enjoy.
Problem may be the default vedeo player set earlier is uninstalled by u. Thanx
I am having a very similar issue. I record a video. 30 seconds long. I stop recording tap the image of what I recorded, it opens gallery.- I select to play the video. the video opens. I click play and a grey message comes up (unable to Play Video) the standard played just fine. I made no changes to the phone after rooting and installing custom rom. it worked fine. now all the sudden. it will not play videos. (only videos I recorded on the phone) everything else such as web and youtube work fine. this is not the first time I have run into this the only option was to install a retail rom and everything worked great. this is a Samsung galaxy s5 g900v I have spent over thre hours on google and bind searching for a solution and I can tell you..it would seem this is an issue many people are having. I don't like VLC I like the stock player. though I dont know what it is called but I have this Rom (VZW_BPB1_ODEX_DEODEX_V9) it has no file browser and no purple video Icon. (thats the one I dont know the name of) and I am not sure what this rom uses to play video. ..so if anyone has a solution please post it. I tried the above and they did not work. I also tried solutions that were offered on other sites to no avail.
Hi all
Last week got the N700XXLA4 update.
Now I am unable to use Allshare to play back videos (or music) on my Note. The vids are on my Netgear NAS. Allshare sees the NAS, allows me to browse the folders, shows the vids, but when I try to play one, the screen turns black, and after about 10 - 20 seconds, I receive an error message. "sorry Allshare needs to close, please try again later" or somesuch.
Restarted the phone, did not help.
Anyone else having this problem? Ideas how to solve it?
thx
Clearing the app cache may help..
Sorry to say that clearing the cache did not help.
Am I correct in assuming I am the only one who has this problem? Can you guys use Allshare to playback videos (stored on a NAS) on your Note?
I bet an arm and a foot that you've changed the DPI?

Please send them in a fresh box through UPS. I hope you have been working out and they are strong and reliable.
Did not change anything. My device is not rooted - I don't even think it is possible to change the dpi if not rooted.
Anyway, I found a work around. I just use ES file explorer, browse to the NAS shared folders, and open the vid files like that. Then they stream.
Still, bugs me that Allshare won't do it.
I've searched multiple forums and attempted to work with Samsung support (they want me to send tablet to them).
If I try to load a video (not take on this device) from Google Photos app, the video preview comes up but the loading circle just keeps spinning. The same video through Photos app on my android phone on the same wifi connection doesn't have any problem and loads instantly.
I've tried some replacement apps and they seem to do the same or similar thing.
I have a fairly new SM-T810 (only a few months old) and this issue has always been this way...just haven't dug into the problem until now..
Overall, internet browsing on the table is relatively quick and if I go to a site like ESPN within Chrome and play a video on the page it loads fine.
I am currently using DHCP to my router, though I have tried manual setup. I am using a 192.168.1.XXX setup.
Through forums and Samsung, I've tried the normal clear cache/data, uninstall updates, restart tablet, factory reset tablet.....and nothing seems to resolve the issue.
If anyone has a suggestion, I'm certainly open to it. If more information is needed I can certainly make it available.
Thank you in advance.
The photos app is able to stream it direct from google servers, however I think it's only a preview and not full quality or it will play the local version.
3rd party apps will play it, but will download it first.
Samsung keeps saying the only way to fix this is to send them the device. I just find it hard to believe this is a hardware issue.
Seems like it's a software issue with the tablet itself or at least it's integration of handling videos. Smaller videos seem to load after a while (loading instantly on my android phone)...but large videos never load at all (after waiting minutes). Again, start playing within a second or so on my android phone.
Every other browser is playing the video correctly.

Samsung's is downloading RhinoShield_ShockSpread_A_Materials_Science_Breakthrough.mp4
BTW I have the Rhinoshield Bumper... Today I ordered the back protector and came across the problem.
Resetted all the standard app settings and globally revoked all permissions, even uninstalled... problem still persists.
Am I the only one with this strange problem on this website?
Plays fine in Samsung browser for me

It did the same for me also. It saved the mp4 on my SD card.

So, what happens in other browsers? Does it play within the website, or does it go into Video mode? You might have set default action to Downloads. When I went to the website, it asked me to either OPEN or Download. I selected OPEN and with Video Player and it started playing.

I did have the same problem. Not sure how I mitigated it but I no longer have that problem. And at one point nothing would even happen when clicking play it wouldn't even download anymore, I think I deleted Samsung beta and disabled samsun internet and cleared cache in recovery. If all else fails factory reset I presume
I encountered the same issue using Samsung Browser 6. First time I clicked the link it as me to choose Video Player or Download. I didn't choose either & closed the pop up but it defaulted to download anyway. Then anytime I visited the page it would download the mp4. That is pretty annoying.
I also tried resetting app deafult but no matter what I couldn't get that pop up again asking which app to use, I tried clearing app data for Downloads Manager & even freezing it but could never get that pop up to appear again.
I had made a nandroid earlier that day so I restored. This time when I got the pop up I choose Video Player & it would play it instead of downloading. But it wouldn't set as default so everytime I visited the page it would always ask me.
Now I'm using Samsung Browser 7. With 7 it never asked my to choose Video Player or Downloads, it always prompts you asking to save the file. At least it doesn't automatically download it anymore & no need to delete the mp4s everytime you visit the page.
I chose video player when I got the pop up and it streamed it fine. However, upon checking the whole mp4 was still downloaded onto my SD card.
