Hello, I'm a new member here. I've browsed the forums from time to time but never registered until today because I'm in need of some help.
After browsing and searching online and on this forum, I haven't seen anyone with a problem similar to mine.
So, being brief:
Not a single type of video is playable on my phone. Youtube.com, YouTube App, videos from my phone's SD Card, videos I recorded with this phone a few days ago, nothing. Videos I was able to watch on my phone before also suddenly stopped working. I also can't record videos.
On the other hand, my camera works perfectly, so does the music player.
I haven't added any weird adds or anything of the sort. I've attached screenshots of my "About Phone" info, and two other screenshots of what it looks like when I try to play videos on the YouTube App and videos that are directly saved on my phone.
If help is available, I'll appreciate it highly.
Thanks in advance!
Pedro.

Going through "All" Apps and there isn't a single one with the name "Video" on it. This may be the problem lol. Any idea what I can do?
Thanks!

Yep. Like this:
System Settings > Apps > [DOWNLOADED] [ON SD CARD] [RUNNING] [ALL]
They are ordered alphabetically, went down and this is what I get (attachment picture).

hmm..looks like your video player is missing, did you by chance delete it? or something? , another option would be to install another player from google play
https://play.google.com/store/search?q=video+player&c=apps just try MX player..its great

Nop. Never mess with any of that. Just installed it and now I can play videos from my SD Card, thanks!
However, nothing on YouTube or YTApp.
Any idea how I can get it back? The stock video player I mean.

you may need to reinstall the video player (you have to find a stock video player to re install) or you can do a factory reset...that will wipe out all your current settings , contacts , downloads etc
Did you try clearing youtube data and cache ?

cause your earlier installation is still in your system, it has to be un installed first, for this to replace it. Can download a root un installer from google play and check ( try to un install the video player, not the mx player , if your video player is hidden somewhere in your system
The other option is it has to be flashed it by using odin or by using update.zip in recovery mode.
you can also download from google play the youtube app, and let it install by google ( it can either update it or replace it ) would solve that problem

Ok, I'll try that now.
I just reset my phone, backed up my contacts through Google Sync and had barely any apps so it wasn't a problem. Still no video after factory reset.
I'll give it a go now!

The problem has to be with the rom you using, you are on ICS 4.03 , you need to check with the developers of this rom as I9000 stock rom is only Gingerbread

There was no problem before though, that's what's weird. I've had this phone for about a month and a half, and installed ICS on it on day 3 or so. Ever since, the videos were working properly, lagless and flawlessly.
Just a few days ago problems started appearing.
Just installed a root-uninstaller and it didn't find any Video player at all. Uninstalled YouTube and re-installed it, nothing.

you may have to revert to gingerbread but first try and post into the ICS 4.03 thread, to see if this is a common problem or they have a fix or quick solution for it.
I have little experience in that area as my unit is a korean Galaxy as and only Gingerbread is possible with it.

You have tried to use MX player app?
Just go into official twitter app settings and make sure 'Sound Effects' are off. This will resolve your problem.

Yeah I tried MX Player but didn't work.
Well, had to install another custom ROM. It seems the one I had wasn't compatible with the Kernel I was using. Problem has been solved, and now I'm using 4.0.4, so it's all good!
Thanks a lot for the constant help!

Ok, so yesterday i found something about this "hacked" version of Adobe Flash Player so i decided to install it (install apk, reboot) but it doesn't work. I'v upgraded my Android to 2.3.4 hoping that way works, but guess what... still doesen't work.
P.S. I tryed with default and Dolphin browser
Sorry for my bad english (Romanian)
Phone: Samsung Galaxy Mini GT-S5570 (S5570SERKPK)
It's because the processor itself didn't built to be able to run Flash.

Flash player actually works.... That is you can play .swf animations and games using swf player or FLashbox Game Pro or any other similar apps. But, what I noticed is it is unable to render the graphics from the web... I tried playing a flash game and I didn't see anything (i think i heard the sound, not so sure, though)... But it may also be due to my very poor connection It is worth a try by yourself though
Overall flash works very well now and if you have some flash animation you can at least view them offline...
# anuneanu yes that thread

Flash works pretty fine so, don't complain about it. WHat i noticed though is --there is some lag while playing flash animations and games online because of our hardware (and might be due to my slow connection too) but you can play swf files locally with the help of swf flash player...

Hi!
Most of the time I use gallery to browse my photos and videos. Videos don't work either from gallery, ES File Explorer, MX Player and QuickPic. Same result as I open them directly from apps.

I figured that this is a kernel related problem. On stock I'm able to play videos. Semaphore and Devil have problems on CM10. I'm about to try SlimJB and see if it is better.

As I don't have enough posts to report a bug found in this ROM's developer thread, I decided to do this here and hope Oliver read this.
When streaming an html5 video on full screen mode, I just get a black screen with the sound running.
I tried this with stock browser, opera mobile and chrome.
Flash-videos run in full screen., but only in stock browser, as this is the only browser, I use, which supports flash.
Hope this can be fixed.

Youtube freezing everytime I playing a video but the sounds still playing and it's going to not responding after tht. It happend after I update to newest youtube. I didn't got this issue when I'm still using TouchWiz, I got this after I using CM 10.1 and 10.2 by Maclaw.
Not sure if it caused by youtube itself or CM.

Go in recovery & wipe cache & dalvik cache only.
Try with older version. Worked for me.
Or dangerous solution. Open YouTube app and put your phone in stove/microwave/warming device of your choice. After some time it should be unfreezed.

Hey all. I was wondering if anybody knew of a place to get the stock Note 3 video player. I was having problems with my google account after a mess and flashed to a new ROM and my account works fine now. The downside is that the ROM does not have to stock video player. Normally not a big deal. But I have the Showbox app and a Samsung smart TV at home to stream from my phone to my TV. I need a way to still do that. Im open to suggestions for other apps or ways to do it. The ROM is AzureROM Five. Uses MX Player. Thanks

I found a video player that works. Sorry for not updating this thread. Thank you so much for that though. The app I found actually works better than the stock app. It is twonkybeam. Where the stock player would not fully buffer a lot of things I have not had any issues with this player unless I am also doing a lot on my phone at the same time. But again, thank you so much.
