Everytime I try to watch the Colbert Report on comedy central the show plays in slow motion. The Daily Show and the commercials work without issue, its just the Colbert Report.
I've tried CTV as well, same issue(obviously this is in Canada).
I have un-installed Flash and installed the version floating around XDA.
This is a issue that has followed me from CM6rc2 to CM6rc3.
Any other suggestions I can try?
I was having that same issue on the regular stream on Crunchyroll.com and when I swapped from the h264 to 480, it stopped. It has to be something in settings cause I only had it on cm6r3, but not one of the r2 nightlys. It cleared up when I swapped to evil d's sense rom.
Hello,
I have had my nexus for about 5 months now and really love the phone.
One big feature that I use is flash video online and I watch streamed TV channels. A few months ago, when 2.2 was originally released I was able to watch any stream I cam across.
However, within the last month, certain video stream will result in my phones browser crashing immediately. The browser does not force close, and there is no error message, just immediately booted back to home screen.
The funny thing is, 2 of my friends who have the HTC desire, are unable to view the same streams. The browser crash is 100% repeatable without fail.
I am currently running STOCK 2.2, with stock recovery, stock (non-korean) radio, stock everything. I reverted entirely to stock from CM6 to see if it would fix my problem but it has not. I have tried CM6, Enomther, Kang and stock roms, Tried the froyo 4.06 radio and the Korean 5.08 radio, all of which have the exact same behavior.
A specific stream that does not load for me (there are others) is The Poker Channel, over at atdhe.net
I have tried both OnDemand and always on for flash settings but nothing seems to help.
If anyone has any ideas or also experiences these problems I would love to hear it. If you need more information or a video of the problem I can provide whatever is needed. I desperately would like to fix this problem.
I have been having the exact same issue with Justin.tv streams it was working when I was on the beta flash and right after the official flash was released. Very recently I want to say two weeks it crashes my browser. The only thing I can think of is maybe its being blocked from there end? I also tried wiping and installing the beta again and same crash

Well that is good news and bad news Im sorry to hear you have the same issue but its nice to know I am not alone.
I would like to get it fixed but I have no idea how to go about it. I have tried almost everything I can think of, including changing User Agent and all that stuff.
If anybody reads this, Is anybody able to watch the Poker Channel from atdhe.net on your phone? Other channels dont work as well, I dont even like poker, but I know that channel is a for sure browser crash for me.
So there is a new flash update that I just downloaded on my phone. Flash Player 10.1.95.1. This seems to have fixed my problem 100%, as every flash channel now works flawlessly.
If only I didnt revert everything back to stock... hahah At least I am happy to have my issue resolved.
I made sure mine is up to date and it still doesn't work it might be my build

Actually I came back to post that upon going through more channels I find that some still don't work. A majority of the ones that didn't work now do work but I still experience some channels on atdhe that crash my browser immediately. This is while using stock 2.2 still.
That changes my thoughts a little knowing your on a stock build it might be a problem with the stream itself I notice it does it only on Justin.TV streams the ones work great still

I had the same issue today. I was trying to watch a steram from atdhe which I'm pretty sure is linked to Justin TV. Just keeps crashing my browser .
Another issue I've had is watching Colbert report on CTV's and comedy centrals website. The audio plays in slow motion but the video plays normal. Everything else on those sties work for me.
I'm using CM6 nightly build.
Could someone test this for me?
Ive got an i9000m, 10.12 hw date (3rd back from bell repair).
I remember with my previous phone being able to play (smoothly) flash video from sites such as tsn.ca
I was trying to watch the world jr game last night (first time trying flash video with the new phone) and it was extremely jerky. I was on a wifi connection which was more than good enough to stream video. This was with the stock JL2 firmware.
Knowing that flash worked great with the previous phone running a beta 2.2 version, I installed darkys v8 this morning, thinking JL2 may of been the cause of the issue, and im finding the same results.
Could it be my new phone? Could someone else load up tsn.ca and see if the video streams smoothly.
Thanks
some videos are not optimized for mobile and will be very jerky and other flash vids that have same or even better quality will run fine. don't ask me why
I get that, but its just odd, as it worked fine before.
as well, sites like atdhe.net streamed flawlessly before, now they are extremely jerky (basically unwatchable)
Updated Flash Player v????
jje
Yes I have,
flash is updated to latest from market.
I have the exact same problem with www.tsn.ca full site along with several other sites like www.ign.com. Did anyone find a solution? Thanks.
Is anyone else having issues using the app HeyTell? The only ROM i can get it to work properly on is the stock AT&T 2.1, it doesn't even work on the stock 2.2 update. Basically on stock 2.1 I can send and receive messages perfectly without missing a message or having to close the app. If I update to 2.2 or flash a custom ROM, I can send about 2 messages and then it stops sending or receiving, I have to close the app and then try to send the message again. Once I open the app again, whatever the person sent to me is lost and they have to send it again.
Just putting this out there, I have emailed the developer and they are stating that they have no issues. I don't know what else to try, I have cleared the app's cache, uninstalled and reinstalled, I am out of ideas.
I've never even heard of this app before... I'll install it now and tell you how it goes.
EDIT: Okay, I obviously have no friends on this at the moment... But I've been clicking around the app and it seems fine? I'm using Paragon RC6 right now. The GPS/Map component seems to be working fine anyway... I can't really send a voice clip or message through it (no-one to send it to).
EDIT2: Okay, I somehow sent a voiceclip/message to myself and I've recorded it, sent it, and then received it fine. I'll keep playing around with this a little bit further in the morning.
I really appreciate it, it will work at first, and then just stop sending and receving, the little sending icon just spins and spins...then you have to force close it and then start it again, then it works for a few messages and then stops again.
I'm having the same problem with the HeyTell app. It's pretty much hit or miss for me, sometimes it works good for a while, sometimes it sends blank messages. I have a ton of friends using this app on iPhones or other Android devices and they aren't having problems at all.
I have emailed the developer and he states that it works perfectly for him on his phone, whether or not that is true, I am not sure.
Not trying to thread jack but for some reason my hey tell doesn't get messages on time. I'll be next to a buddy and I'll get a message that he sent hours ago. Does anyone else have this issue? I just have the 2.2 froyo update, no custom roms.
I thought for sure HeyTell would work on Official 2.2 as well but I have the same issue your stating. Like I said though, the developer states he has no issues...I am not sure what is going to happen.
HeyTell Support
Are you sure you contacted HeyTell support? I don't have any record of sending a "works for me" answer on a report like this...drop me another email to refresh my memory at [email protected] if you can - thanks in advance!
So! We're aware of an issue on the Galaxy S series phones (Fascinate, Epic, Captivate, Vibrant) introduced by 2.2 firmware (Samsung only, 2.2 makes HeyTell better on other phones). Symptoms appear to be spotty network reporting, media player issues (inconsistent record behavior), and the OS killing HeyTell during screen dims.
We're currently working hard to find a workaround for affected users (and trying to get more info from Samsung), but in the meantime, if you could do us a favor and email us your firmware revision number and any logs you have related to the behavior, we'd greatly appreciate it!
Since I had the issue with Stock 2.2 and not with Stock 2.1 I am running Stock 2.1 until there is a fix. If your asking me for logs I cannot help you there unless I put 2.2 on my phone. i am currently running HeyTell version 181, I am willing to load 2.2 and work with you and get you information, just let me know. I love this app, but my phone is kinda laggy and slow running 2.1 and I want to be running 2.2.
I"m also using HeyTell on 2.2 and having quite a bit of troubles. I'd be happy to send you logs if you could explain to me how to do so. Thanks!
Just a little update, I finally got tired of stock 2.1 last night and decided to try out MIUI. I was pleased to find that after sending more than 10 messages back and forth, HeyTell has not failed yet.... I will be testing all day at work today, I am not sure if they updated the app or if something in MIUI allows it to work. I just thought I would update those few of you that have had the same problem as me.
Everything is still working fine with HeyTell, I am running MIUI Beta 6 and HeyTell is working perfectly. I did notice an update to from the market, I am hoping that could be a fix for other cutom Roms and Stock 2.2.
As MIUI has no samsung crap in it, it should work fine, since it seems to be a samsung issue. Runs fine on CM7 as well.
We put a workaround into builds 1.1.3 -- that fixed it for stock, but didn't catch all of the custom ROMs, so we spun 1.1.4 - give that a whirl and it should work. If anyone runs into this issue again, shoot us an email with your model number (Menu > Profile > Email Support sends this to us, so that may be the fastest method, but also don't forget to include a description of the issue you hit).
Oh sweet so HeyTell should be working fine now with stock 2.2? I will test it now, thanks alot!
Ever since I downloaded the update the app works great! Thanks!
Hey Tell Message Queue Issues
I've been having a problem for a while now where message don't come in automatically, as if they're caught up in the queue somehow. I have to exit HeyTell multiple times, manually click on the message, hit the stop and play buttons, or multiple combinations of all of these just to get a single message to play sometimes. I'm using a Samsung SGS3 with Synergy. Any way to fix this issue? Thanks much!
I've got a Tmobile Note 4 running Lollipop (updated OTA yesterday). I use a Samsung Wireless Dongle and Screen Mirroring to watch some shows. I noticed yesterday that video playback has become extremely choppy since the Lollipop update. Anyone else experiencing this issue? I double checked my network settings and everything is working smoothly. Video playback on the Note 4 itself is just fine. Just choppy on my TV screen when Screen Mirroring through the Wireless Dongle. Any ideas about how to address this would be much appreciated. I am rooted, running stock TouchWiz Lollipop ROM, if that matters.
Try without the dongle? It does work wireless if you have a smart tv
I have the dongle because I don't have a Wi-Fi Direct/Screen Mirroring capable television. I did dig around in Application Manager and found Wi-Fi Direct Share, and I've cleared the cache and data for it. I'll try it out this evening to see if that will get it working smoothly again.
Should note that on KitKat, the Dongle worked just fine. It is a Samsung brand wireless dongle.
There is no data nor cache to clear on Screen Mirroring app itself nor on the Wi-Fi Direct app. So crossing my fingers this Wi-Fi Direct Share has something to do with it.
I have the same samsung wireless dongle but since I updated to 5.0 i havent had the chance to stream, ill give input in a few when i get home. Also i had a lot of freezing while watching movies on 4.4 not sure if you ever experienced that, it was very annoying. Also I'm stock.
Still not resolved
Wireless dongle playback is still choppy as described in OP. Interested to here from others. A better description might by jerky... Audio is just fine. Might dig around in the build.prop file later. Otherwise, any feedback from others experiencing this issue or others who might have an idea for troubleshooting would be greatly appreciated.
Try booting up in recovery and wiping cashe partition that seems to fix a lot of strange problems for me.
No such luck, mate. Thanks for the suggestion, though. It's bareable as is right now, but it does bug the **** out of me. Haha. I'm just wondering if anyone else out there is experiencing this. I'm thinking of borrowing a Chromecast off someone to see if it has the same issue. I mean, the video in every app is smooth as butter on my phone screen, but the TV is jerky ever so slightly via the Samsung Dongle. I know it's not just me because my wife who typically cares less about tech noticed it.
Leave it to good ol Sammy. Sort of like that BS way they built screen mirroring to break on rooted devices using third party (read:non Samsung dongle) back on the Note 3. Anyone have an idea of something I could try to edit in the build.prop file? Any other ideas? I found an app on the Play Store that's meant to fix Screen Mirroring issues after an update, but when loaded it doesn't give me the option to run it, apparently it thinks I am already patched. Oh. And Samsung was the manufacturer of that app, go figure. So apparently this has happened in in the past?
If all else fails, I may just try a fresh install. I'm trying to wait for the latest version of TWRP because I heard some folks have had no luck flashing ROMs through TWRP after upgrading to Lollipop OTA and then rooting (which is what I did; I never rooted on KitKat because I wanted to keep my 1 yr Sammy Warranty intact, just in case). I know tripping Knox apparently doesn't affect the Tmobile insurance, but I've read varying stories on whether it affects your Sammy factory warranty.
Well. I'm off off to play some AC Unity on the PS4. I'll check back later. Happy trails
I am experiencing the same issue ever since I updated to lollipop. Video mirroring to my Samsung smart TV very choppy.
Nobody has any possible solutions for this? Please give it a shot if you have any ideas whatsoever. Now we have two confirmed reports.
Quick update. Hard reset and even unroooting the device didn't resolve the issue. Definitely something baked into to the latest TMO stock ROM
I've even had the screen freeze on the chromecast when mirroring but audio still plays
@knarfies I used to get a similar issue with Netflix but Lollipop resolved it. So can you connect with Chrome cast, but it freezes occasionally? How often is it happening? The Samsung Dongle works without freezing audio or video but is jerky enough for me and the wife to notice. Wasn't like that on KitKat.
I'm running stock and im using the samsung dongle and the video actually plays smoother on 5.0, when I was on 4.4 it use to freeze all the time I'm not sure why is not playing gird for you guys, plus whatever I was on 4.4 the video playback in general would freez during playback even when I was not screen mirring.
I am currently rooted with a custom kernel and stock ROM, but even before the mods, it was no longer working correctly. Samsung has an app on the Play Store to patch problems with Screen Mirroring after a software upgrade, but when I downloaded it, it said I was already patched. Even after a hard reset and completely non rooted stock everything it hasn't worked perfectly like it did on KitKat since Lollipop.
