Is there a way to set another video player as the default in the browser? I'm trying to watch videos through ORB and they appear as a small square rather than an expanded video...

I not familiar with orb. But is there a high quality option as Youtube had a similar issue. When the video was playing in low quality at default, you needed to press the menu button to choose High quality so it would play in full screen.
I thought there was an orb application in the market have you checked it out?

I have a MP4 movie that I want to watch
There is sound but no picture if I open in the TF3D built in player (plays other formats fine)
If I open in WMP, it's fine until I change to full screen
Because its in letterbox format, you can still the edges of the movie as if it was in portrait mode
Hopefully the attached pic explains it better
My orbit never suffered with this
Anyway to make the TF3D app play more file types
Anyway to fix the screen issue with WMP
it's now working in TF3D but the windows media screen problem is still there
Any ideas why ?
I've had a problem almost since the beginning where video shoot on the N6 plays back very jerky using the default video player in Photos. Never been able to figure out why, but changing the default player to MX or VLC fixes the playback issue... for a time. The problem is that at some point videos I click in Photos stop opening with MX player and go back to the default player. And the video gets jerky again. I have not been able to figure out how to force Photos to actually use the default video app. Any ideas? BTW, Photos doesn't let you "clear defaults" like other apps I don't think. At least that doesn't work for me.
Thanks.
Hey all,
I am using a Droid Turbo XT1254 Android 5.1 with kernel 3.10.40;
I recorded an HD(720p) video of a buddies proposal and I would like to edit it for him as it looks really great!
The problem is when I export the video out and plug it into video editing software on my computer, the audio loses sync with the video and is near impossible to fix. Has anyone else had this issue and is there any known work around?
I'm very worried that this video was all for not.
Thank you!

Does the audio become more increasingly out of sync (2 seconds, 3 seconds, 4 seconds) or is it consistently a set amount (like 1 second) the entire clip?
Have you only tried to play it on one piece of software? Drag the video to your desktop, click on it and play it with WMP, VLC, Media Player Classic, etc. When you play it normally in Windows Media Player, VLC or any of the other free dozens of media players, does it play OK? If so, then your video editing software is to blame. It's not a "phone" issue, it's your video editing software.
If it's out of sync even when playing it with a computer program video player -- not your video editing software but WMP, VLC, Media Player Classic, etc -- there's still ways to fix it.
1) If it's any good, your video editing software will have audio sync options. That's a standard task in editing video, to fix audio lag called "lip sync" issue.
2) you can always re-edit the audio -- just like you would with a piece of music you might want to start at a certain point. (if it's consistent in the amount it's out of sync). You would just edit the audio track to be offset by the amount of time you wish.
3) try another video editing software.

Thanks for your response!
The audio becomes increasingly out of sync as the video goes on. I was using adobe premiere pro as well, I did try to re-edit the audio back in to sync up with the video, however because the rate of change is increasing throughout the video, it is near impossible to line things up correctly.
I will try another video editing software tonight, do you have any suggestions? I just need to have the video playing with a smaller video playing(Picture in picture style).
Is this a known problem or have you never experienced this?
Thanks!
I was hoping it was a simple, constant value for the delay.
I was also hoping it could be repeated using any video player ( which would mean the problem was actually with the file, not the editing software). In which case I was going to suggest something like this:
http://www.hecticgeek.com/2013/02/fix-audio-video-sync-save-permanently-avidemux/
You still haven't said whether it plays fine in other video players (not editing software, just players).
But the increasing variability of the time worries me.
To give you an analogy, when I add subtitles file to a TV show or movie, if one is PAL (25 frames per second) and the other is NTSC (29.97 frames per second), then the subtitles will be increasingly out of sync the further into the file as it plays.
I have software that will let me do a "visual sync", but that doesn't work if the rates are not the same.
That's just an analogy, because your audio/video shouldn't be on two different standards like that.
So, I'm curious, when you play it with VLC (free) or Classic Video Player (part of the K-LITE Mega Codec Package (free), is the video/audio out of sync?
If it plays fine in another video player, then there's just some messed up setting in your Adobe editor.
Hi Folks,
Does anyone know?
In Settings > Apps there's no default video player displayed. In Settings > Apps > Configure Apps there's no "video app"... There's configuration for Home App (Launcher), Browser, Phone, SMS, Camera, Gallery, Music and Mail. No video?
The stock video player is pretty lame so I'd like to use something decent like MX, VLC?
Thanks in advance

Settings - Apps - 3 button menu-- Reset app preferences .
It basically removes all the defaults . And next time you watch a video ,, it will ask you which player to use.

Thanks for the reply, but nope it doesn't work - it still loads up the default video player? I can't believe Oneplus doesn't give you the option of choosing the video player... I should add this is only in browser streaming.

To my knowledge, in Browser streaming, the browser-built-in player is used and not the player that comes with your ROM. I may be wrong, though.

I figured out what the problem is and it was really quite a simple one which I've spent hours on...
On my old HTC M7s I have Dolphin as my main browser... I've also got the Jetpack add-on installed that includes a media player which plays flash. It's this player that is loading up for the majority of videos I view on that phone... What has me a little stumped is that it also loads up in Chrome too. I downloaded Firefox to the M7 today and it didn't load videos in the media player - it played them in Firefox's native media player. It was the same process as the Oneplus 3 so it got me thinking.
I think if the media player hadn't loaded in Chrome as well it would have been a lot quicker to work out that this was a "Dolphin only" add-on perk.
Sadly the Jetpack isn't supported in Nougat.
It's not a big deal but we've no choice (as fair as I know) but to watch any videos in the normal browsers' players... Which don't have the on-screen brightness / sound / video search capabilities like you see on the stand alone players like VLC and MX Player.
If anyone has any other ideas :good:
FYI: I've tried Puffin and Photon.
Just a shame browser vendors don't give you the option to view web videos in an alternative app as default. Firefox is really the only browser that sort of half offers that option.
Not sure if this might work, but you can try an app called better open with. You can set defaults for certain type of file types like video stream, audio stream, PDF, etc. Either way, better open with is a better alternative than the stock defualts dialog.
I love using the stock video player on my note 8, especially being able to screen mirror a movie AND still use the phone in a normal manor without disrupting the film. Only negative is it's terrible when it comes to codecs.
Anybody know of an app/or a way were I can play any movie regardless of codec and be able to screen mirror in the background? I've tried loads but none have that one feature the stock video player has.
Any help would be appreciated!

Mostly, it depends of the device you are trying to mirror. For example, if you have a smart TV with mirrorcast you can send videos in background with YouTube vanced, the same for Roku.
It's a downloaded film to my devices internal memory so YouTube Vanced wouldn't work in this scenario
