[Q] Cannot stream videos? - Motorola Droid 4

Hey guys, I have my Droid 4 running AOKP - JB from Hashcode and I've started to notice I can no longer stream youtube videos (from the app or the website), also have the same issue with the vevo app.
As well, I can receive live video from Skype but cannot send live video. (It'll take one frame and send it as a still picture, if I turn off the video and turn it back on, it'll grab one frame again).
I'm sure these are two separate issues, but couldn't help but to clash them together.
Anyone have any ideas on this or am I the only one having this issue?
Update: I can now play High Quality YouTube videos but normal still has the issue.
Youtube issue: Trys to load, plays a little, goes to buffer, then buffers, then restarts again, then pops up saying "There was a problem while playing Touch to retry."

I'm experiencing exactly the same, but haven't tested the issue with skype. HQ Videos work, normal streaming same problem as you have.

I also have problems viewing videos. Mainly the youtube app. Using youtube through the browser works like a charm...strange.

Problems playing YouTube and other online videos

I just bought the ATT nexus one and I am new to android. My problem is that sometimes when I play YouTube videos it will play only the sound and it will show a frozen screen, however the sound will still play. Then I have to force close the video stream.
Whats weird is that this doesnt happen all the time... other times it works perfectly. This problem isnt just YouTube its any video online that the browser can play. The only thing that I found to rectify this problem is turning off my phone then rebooting. Any advise is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
My problem is watching online videos such as youtube or other videos is that there almost unwatchable.. The sound doesnt sync with the faces and the whole experience makes me feel very not entertained... Actually watching youtube videos is ok, its watching other videos online that lead the bad taste in my mouth. Anyway to improve the video experience?
Is it brand new stock nexus or do you have a different rom? I had an older MoDaCo Sense rom and I had those exact issues, but when I switched to enMothers Rom, havn't had an issues since.
It is a brand new stock rom. I have not rooted it or anything. Just the normal app downloads from the market place. Its only about 2 weeks old.

Youtube HQ

I could have sworn I used to be able to watch HQ videos in the YouTube app. But now, it's like my Hero can't handle it. When I try enabling HQ, the video doesn't show, I hear jittery audio, and my phone becomes very unresponsive. Unchecking HQ fixes all of this, but... SD is so blurry
If it matters, I'm running CM6.
I notice this problem if the video is available in 720p/1080p on YouTube. But if it's only available in 480p or lower, the video plays fine. I think it may be a problem with the app (plus our phone being underpowered).
I never tried the HQ option with the new builds. I'll see if I get the same issue.

I suspected this was the case... too bad there is no way for us to set 480p to be the maximum. I have tried playing 720p .mp4 files and indeed they experience the same problem, problem solved when using 480p.
Yeah. It's definitely choppy. No way to correct it?

Nexus 6 Video Playback Lag

Hi all, I wanted to know if anyone else is experiencing this as well as any possible suggestions. I have noticed when watching videos I have recorded on my phone via ANY camera app produce fine videos. When I attempt to watch them, however, there is noticeable stuttering and lag where the video does not completely freeze at all but looks almost slightly jumpy. I have uploaded a few of the videos to YouTube and noticed when watching those there is no stuttering. I have not had the chance to try Playback via PC. Does anyone else notice this? Is the phone just lagging playing the natively recorded video files back? I'm only doing 1080p btw, not 4K. Thanks!

mine plays back my 4K recorded videos just fine(of course its not in 4K on the phone when watching)..
Bump! I have this same issue. I thought it was my video recording choppy, but now that I checked on another device I see it's a playback problem. I'm on 5.1.1 T-Mobile Motorola phone.
Anyone? I still have this problem, which is only playback related. If I can give MX player to play the videos things are fine, but somehow Photos eventually takes neck default control and its a pain in my ass!

Video showing green screen [sometimes]

Sometimes when I play video in xperia video or album app, the view will became green. The audio still played but there's no video. But later after not using the phone for a while, the video will be normal again. Does anybody experienced this? Why does this happen? Btw, i'm using stock rom with root access.
Hi,
Sometimes it happens due to some problem with running the video, did you notice the same issue happening on other players? I can strongly recommend the MX Player, been using that ever since 2011 and very rarely I had problems (the problems I had were related to how powerful the device was, as in, the device itself wasn't able to process the video not the player).
All the best,

Youtube video playback Stuttering

Hello guyz,
Has anyone else noticed small occasional stuttering while playing back 1080p+ Youtube videos? Like randomly its stuck in a frame for 0.3 second every few seconds and then resumes normaly. I am not talking about HDR which stutters a lot and is a known issue. I tried clearing app's cache+data but the issue remains.
Same here. Looks like YouTube needs to update app and optimise it.
That 1440p Costa Rica video on YouTube doesn't play very smoothly on mine.
