Hi,
Whenever I try to play mp4 or mkv files in my SGS, the video comes however, there isn't any sound... I have tried searching on various forums but didn't find any concrete solutions... Any idea why this is happening and how to fix it?
I have tried various players available in the market... However ended up with same result of no sound...
Please suggest some way out...
Samsung Galaxy S
Android 2.2
BaseBand: I9000DDJP2
Build: Froyo.DDJP6
Thanks,

If a video fails to play sound but video plays then its usually the wrong format for the codecs in the phone .
The phone is unable to play the specific format the media consists of .
Solution find a media player from the market that will play that format or convert the files to a format the phone plays .

I would recommend using mvideo player. When you adjust the volume settings while the video is playing you get no sound at all?

Absolutely... I don't get any sound... Even for Mvideo player it is the same thing... No sound at all...
Check in your settings, sound and make sure system volume is max and media volume is at least over 50%?

Volume is at max level...
Have you flashed custom kernel or anything?
If not, I really believe it may be the actual video files and not the phone.

Nopes, I haven't flashed the phone... However the phone is rooted....and i have one click lag fix installed...
did you use a video converter or something to pull the videos from youtube or something like that? I really believe that files themselves maybe the issue then. Root and lag fix shouldn't give you that trouble.
You need to find what format the files are then check if phone can play that format .

Hi,
Have you try to put your. Flac in the internal sd, for me it's working with docrom based on jm9

Make sure the flac files are 16bit, as it will refuse to play 24bit files.

1. I have 2e recovery.
2. No want downgrade losless qualite my music(2.1 playing everything without problem).
3. rom - Goodbye RFS 0.2 (another 2.2 have this problem to)
I've got same problem with playing flac files... not all, but some of them, mainly Hemi-Sync records (90 mins long). With 2.1 no problem, with 2.2 phone crashes!
[OFF TOPIC/] Flac on a portable device is just .....
FLAC is scientifically not worth the hard disk space, if your only goal in encoding to this format is to listen.
The reasoning behind this fact stems from the intelligent nature of the lossy encoding process. If you take any MP3 or AAC file of standard encoding rate (192K or higher), and polarity inverse it with the same file as a FLAC, you will hear very little difference between the two. This is because even though you've taken a lot of information out of that lossy file to make it so compact, the frequencies taken out of a compressed file are frequencies the ear does not respond well to. No human ear can detect the frequencies removed from any 320K MP3 file because the frequencies are either extremely high-pitched (well above 22k) or extremely obscure and irrelevant (a very specific frequency like 12.5008k or something like this).
Anybody who says they can hear the difference between a standardly-compressed MP3 file and its FLAC counterpart is either lying, suffering from placebo, or needs to tell me where I can get a drug that would heighten somebody's senses that much.

And we all know that the sound that come out from our SGS is far from perfect that why supercurio try to improve it but listening to something over 192Kbps on a mobile device is just waste of space. It's like saying that you want to use a 1920x1080 image on your sgs screen and that you can tell the difference ..... 192 and higher is not for listening.
[/OFF TOPIC]
It doesn't work because it's Goodby RFS and sztumpy has given not enough memory to the system for flac music that might be why with a 20MB file it freeze the player
I have same problem on all 2.2 My solution is to use another player. It's working fine on player pro, and now on poweramp. There is one tip that maybe help you: player pro is crashing too when you try to play flac if you browsing your music library by albums. When you switch to folders without album arts is ok. I'm no longer investigating this since I'm on doc and kalpik froyo v5.1 and poweramp player. It's tiptop now.

Yea i would disagree with that, you will definitely hear the difference between 192 and Flac is you use high end IEMs, even more if you listen to music through a good full size amp with speakers. Well that's my opinion at least
Back to the issue at hand, my flac files work fine and i'm under jp6 ("vanilla" jp6)

Are you playing the movie back on your computer or the phone?
If it's the computer, yes you need a codec, or I think it should play OK in VLC player. You could also get a video converter and convert the file to another format (I do this anyway so I can do other things with my movies too).

pb is on the phone !!!! (if it was a pc problem i d go to a pc forum)
Hello every one,
I recently (two days ago) upgraded my rom to ICS (Dark night 3) which i found simply amazing,so smooth and fluent, i actually wanted to thank the guy for his work on the developpement section,but since i'm new here i can't post there,so i'll just thank him here for his great job...
Well no return to my problem,i can't play WMA files,i had another rom GB i could play them perfectly,but the media player on this rom doesn't support WMA files,is there any solution for that?? (beside purchasing an app that play wma ,i actually tried the trial version on one and i really don't like it,it consums battery and i'd rather prefere the original music player instead)
So is there any solution for that???
What about trying winamp? Maybe it can play WMA.
Wait... are the files downloaded with tube mate WMA files? Because I also can play them with stock gb music app and power amp.

Thank you for your replay,i actually am trying the power amp,it works fine,i can play wma files,but i need to purchase the full version within 15 days, so that's why i'm looking for a substitute beside the power amp display each song in double,so i need to listen to each song twice or to change it each time it finishs...

That's not a rom issue. BTW I found out that you can play files not shown by your player if you choose them with es file explorer (or another explorer). It's just very uncomfortable.

Actually it is a rom issue,since i can see the files,and when i try to play them an error message telling that the player does not support this type of audio file...
I am using Zeus 6.11n. All videos are out of sync about 0.3-0.4 sec. Am I the only one with this problem and is there a fix?
out of sync when... watching at phone? transfer and watch at pc/laptop? uploaded and watch at youtube??
One thing I can tell you is, I don't know why but when I upload directly to youtube it say something like "sound could be out of sync" or something like that... so before I upload a video I use a video converter to make it avi or mpg or whatever [original video file is 3gp] and the upload it to youtube and is good to go

Every video I watch on my phone is out of sync. I watch it on my PC and it is fine. When I transfer it to my phone it goes out of sync. Even youtube videos are out of sync.
What video player are you using? Are you using a hard-decoder or soft-decoder?
I had the EXACT same problem when i was trying to watch a highly compressed mkv through moboplayer and mx video player.
I trie using MX Player, Mobo Player and even the stock LG Player, using HW decoding. I get the exact same result. I tried the same video on my Optimus ONE but there it works fine. I will try software decoding and edit this post.
EDIT: It is the same using software decoding.

Try to reflash your device and if it doesn't work download a fresh patch of the rom again and flash it............
Tried reflashing. Even tried flashing other rom. It seems to have fixed itself when i flashed cyanogenmod RC1. Every rom based on the stock one seems to have that problem.
Try moving them to the internal memory as sometimes sd cards do that (especially slow ones such as the one included with the phone) see what happens and report back. Try withthem on the sd of the other phone u have and see also. Last but not least try with lower res vids to see what happens. If all fail send it to lg and see what they reply.
I had similar problems before changed my sd card with class 10. Also dumped Mobo player and now use BS player. No problems now.
I have bad sync in every long videos recorded with my OB in any rom.
SD problem maybe?
When I watch some 720p MKV files with Dice and Stick It players, the audio is pretty badly distorted. It will sound fine for a few seconds, then make crazy bleep-bloop robot noises.
I found the the VLC player nightly actually will play the videos with sound, but it isn't really suitable for use because of lag/sync issues.
AVI and MP4 files work fine.
I've been using CM9 for a long time and haven't had this problem before. I moved back to older builds when it worked fine, yet the issue persists.
I can't blame the players, because they haven't changed. Can't blame the ROM, because old versions that used to work now don't. Can't blame the sound hardware because other videos work fine. Did a system wipe/factory reset as well.
Any ideas?
Try MX player .It plays all my files Inc MKV.

MX Player is great, it plays all my files also. Don't forget to get the codec (Armv7).
MX is a another player that used to work for me and doesn't anymore.

The only thing I can think of is to run acmeuninstaller, then install android again with acmeinstaller 3.
Good luck..
