I've been using MX player to watch my videos on the One, and I've got some issues with it. The video occassionally freezes (audio continues) and I have to either wait a couple of seconds for it to catch up, or I have to rewind/forward to get it moving again. This happens on every single video I've tried (at least ones that I've copied over via USB) and I can't seem to figure it out. Already tried using the custom ARM7 neon codec too as suggested from MXplayer but it didn't make a difference. HW+, or software renderer does not make a difference either. Anybody else having these problems ? If so, were you able to fix it, or find a workaround ?
Forgot to add that I'm still using the stock ROM.
Try uninstalling the codec pack, you don't need it unless MX Player specifically asks for it. I can't say I've had video go out of sync before though.

Thanks! I installed it just yesterday to see if it makes any difference. Until then I was using the default codec that comes with the player. I'm using the free version of MX player if that makes any difference.
Bump
No one else having this problem ?
Maybe try a factory rest and see if that fixes it?

Yep - also have this problem sometimes - not tried uninstalling the codecs yet so will give that a try.
You could try VLC Player for android - works great for me with no lag or O/S problems.
Im Rooted, Tampered and running Android Revolution 9.2, with custom 1.29 Audio files(tfa) and PureXaudio 4.0

Hey guys.
Yesterday, I went to a Bullet for my Valentine concert here in Brussels. I took my brand new HTC Diamond with me to shoot some videos.
After that, I got home and decided to view them.
I couldn't hear no sound! (Volume of the phone checked)
Then I tried to shoot another video while having the phone in normal mode (not silent as in the gig) and still same isue...
Any solutions?
Regards
While in the video recording mode, click on the settings tab (bottom right, gear icon).
You should now be presented with four options, choose "Advanced"
Now at the bottom of the screen you should see a right and left arrow, click the right arrow once.
The second option from the top is "Record with Audio" I would take a good bet that yours is set to off... yeah go ahead and change that to on.
Hope thats your problem... if not, your outa' luck
I guess I'm out of luck then...
Does your mic work in general, such as in a phone call.
If yes, then your simplest solution but drastic fix. Is a hard reset.
Yeah, mic does work properly. I guess I'll try a hard reset then.
Thanks!
Hi,
I have the same problem. The sound while recording video is very low. looks like the hands free sound record type is not active while recording videos.
A hard reset doesn´t help. do you know if there is some king os tweak to solve this problem?
Greets
same problem here
i didnt have this problem on htc offical rom
but after upgrade to dutty rom i have this problem
i think it because the camera software it self
in dutty rom he use the latest update of camera software i think this version use deffrent audio format .samr
even the computer VLC player cant play this format
---------
erorr : No suitable decoder module:
VLC does not support the audio or video format "samr". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this
---------
this erorr from VLC Player
Have you guys found a solution to this? i have Dutty's ROM and it will not record with sound. My previous ROM was fine, this one does not work...
anyone????
You will be amazed, but... open Media Player (and any other player that is installed) and modify the sound volume to maxim. After this, try to record video...

Try to uninstall TCPMP and other players or programs that could interfere with sound on your Diamond, soft-reset, and try to record again... maybe this could help.

Well this worked for me.. see if this works for you.
Copy the file to pc. Rename the file and change the extension from ".MP4" to ".3gp".
Should play now on the Real Player or QuickTime.
Lemme know if it works!

I love my Xperia X1 so far. Mostly good things, but some issues:
1) Video playback very choppy = no solution (same: http://www.inxperia.com/forums/xperia-x1/281-xperia-x1-will-not-play-video.html)
This is heart-shattering for me. I have my anime that watch @ breaktime at work and couldn't believe that there's no decent video player (TCPMP doesn't work with X1 + coreplayer has no video acceleration and is choppy as hell). Windows Media Player works, but the interface sucks compared to TCPMP/Core and doesn't support a lot of formats. Having to convert each video by hand with SUPER isn't a viable solution for me.
2) Buzzing sound during phone calls(same: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4219836#post4219836)
3) My last phone was a SE W810i. I have a Plantronics 520 BT headset and it does NOT search and connect with the 520 when it's in range. I have to manually press the button on the bluetooth headset after I reset my device/turn off > on BT to "pair" the headset to my phone. Please, is there ANY way to prevent this behavior? I just want my phone to find my headset, connect to it, and stay connected. It's difficult to let go of this behavior since my previous (inferior) SE phone did it perfectly.
Have you tried updating it to a new ROM?
A custom ROM perhaps? I'm using Valkyrie 2.9, and it is very good at playing high quality videos---and I have not noticed any buzzing problems with a call.

Hi Fuzalert2K,
No, I haven't tried a custom ROM. I've been mostly scared of bricking my new gadget. I've done them before on my Axim X51v.
RE: high quality video playback -- how is that possible? What video player are you using? Did you compress in a special format? I was under the impression that unless you used WMP/formats compatible with Windows Media Player, videos would run choppy on the Xperia no matter what; this is because there's no compatible video player that accessed the graphics driver.
Can someone clarify this? I would gladly flash to another ROM if it meant video was fixed I use Coreplayer. Unfortunately, TCPMP didn't even run (both confirmed problems on XDA)
Shameful Bump. Can anyone confirm this? Will a hacked ROM solve the video choppiness problem?
try to update to via seus maybe u dont have R3A... im using custom rom and dont have problem with video also... and for video playback i use core player or windows media player or media panel...

I'm running a High Resolution video on my Xperia using the Xperience Panel. The Xperia handles MP4 videos without much problem..
I highly recommend you "hard-spl" your phone,
then flash it using the micro-SD method.
I have flashed my phone a little over 50 times, without the slightest hint of anything going wrong.
If you want a new interface (TouchFlo 3D), I suggest you use Valkyrie 2.9 FS, or if you don't, then go for Valkyrie Xperio. Both roms are created by agent_47 under the Xperia ROM development section. They are really fast. You can also enjoy high-resolution youtube videos!
Hi guys,
Yes, Windows Media Player does fine because it has the graphics acceleration drivers, but because HTC did not release the graphics driver chipset software, so there is no hardware acceleration for videos on Coreplayer or anything else except for WMP. How in the world are you guys not having this problem? Legions of users on XDA/Coreplayer forums are having the same problems. What FPS are you guys getting?
Also, does TCPMP work on your Xperias w/ custom ROMS.
I think thinking of trying the "Valkyrie XPERIO". I want a minimalistic ROM built for 1) Stability 2) speed

What is wrong with windows media player anyway? (Is the one in the Xperiance Panel?)
I do think I'm running at least 25 frames.... not much lag.

WMP does not support a variety of formats, doesn't even come close to the configurability, ease-of-use (once configured to one's own preferences), updated frequently, and overall much better than WMP.
I'm very interested to hear from people who run custom ROMS -- does Coreplayer experience the same lag as before?
Shameless bump. Anyone?

I tried a custom ROM -- Touch_X_10_1_X_TREME_BLUE -- a favorite on XDA.
Wonderful improvement over OEM, but alas DID NOT FIX video choppy problem. Whoever states otherwise is either mistaken, lying, or has ridiculously lower standards as to what constitutes "playing video" on the Xperia. I can't even get watchable rates with coreplayer. WMP works if it has a format compatible with it. Stuff like Dattebayo's Bleach (AVI)-- don't even bother.
It really sucks that HTC won't work with Coreplayer's devs to open up and give them the ability to add video acceleration. Stupid HTC

Try another custrom ROM such as energyrom or valkyrie. I myself do with these roms and they are pretty good. By using coreplayer i can watch most kinds of video format (except realplayer format : .rm,.ram...) without any lag (WMP does). So just try, it's safe & fun.
I will try valkyrie and install it very carefully using RUU method (direct microsd method doesn't work for me).
Unfortunately, I just don't see how a custom ROM solves the video lag problem. Can someone post a video of coreplayer playing dattebayo's bleach episode 233? (http://www.dattebayo.com/t/b233.torrent)
On my X1, it plays, but is choppy; choppy means that the subtitles are not smooth and jump around.
I've been searching and reading for quite a while and haven't seen any mention any where of getting the stock Samsung video player that will work with ICS4.0 rom.
I tried installing the stock Samsung Froyo 2.2 apk on my Galaxy S Captivate that has a ICS 4 rom installed but the install failed and I'm left with no video player at all....
I want the stock Samsung player because it is head and shoulders better than ALL other video players. It will play back 720p .mkv files with out a single hitch or glitch, super smooth and perfect, nothing else even comes close to it in performance...
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Won't work on ics. The framework is different. Try rock player
QQ player is pretty solid as well. It plays almost every format imaginable.
Did Samsung include a version for the Galaxy Nexus stock ICS? You could take a look there and extract it. See if that works.
Thanks for the suggestion of finding a stock ICS4 to check, I found one, but can't figure out how to extract the apk files from the system.img file ????
Here. I found a CWM zip for Galaxy Nexus and pulled the videos.apk. Hope this works for you.

Thank you very much for the file, the phone I was originally working on this on is gone to a new home, but I've got another one here I'm experimenting on too, just now researching the best path to follow to get it from i896 Rogers Canada stock 2.1update firmware to ICS with good video playback working....
thanks for the video.apk but it just show the available videos do not play them
If anyone else is following this at all, there IS a native video player in the current ICS I have loaded, but it isn't the same as the previous native players, its much worse. The video is smooth for HD MKV, but there is no sound, so obviously it uses hardware acceleration properly for video, but can't do hardware video acceleration and software audio decoding simultaneously like the excellent native player that was included with previous versions.
Is there any way to use the previous native player with ICS ? Can it be "converted" or anything like that ?
Thanks.

I have just opened a bug for Android about video play subsystem failure on Nexus 4! None of my previous Android devices had this problem and this is really bothering me! Anybody else having the same problem?
Android Bug report Link (Please star this if you want it fixed):
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=50814&thanks=50814&ts=1361480369
Problem Description:
I have downloaded a video file to my Nexus 4, opened it in stock Gallery application tried to play it with stock video player and the Gallery Application hanged and crashed! After that, you can't play any video files with the device, not even video files recorded with the device camera. The problem persists until the device is rebooted.
Sometimes, when I open an application that fetches thumbnails of videos (like VidTrim), then without even trying to play the unsupported video file the video play capabilities of the device are completely gone!
You can download a video file that causes this problem from here:

I don't know if happens only for MKV files. I have other MKV files that does not cause this problem. But this specific file causes the problem %100 on my stock 4.2.2 device.
Can some people with Stock Android 4.2.2 and Nexus 4, try to play the file that I shared and see if the problem occurs?
If the problem occurs, after playing that file, you shouldn't be able to even play videos recorded with your Nexus 4.
Please use the stock video player only for testing.
Wow. Finally! I've got the same problem. Maybe because N4 has minimum codec? I wish 4.3 can solved this.
Edit: In my case, even I can't play YouTube when it happened.

By the way, YouTube does not work for me too after trying to play that video file.
Yep, i've noticed it in the last month or so, some of the transcoded movies off my plex server cause it and the phone then requires a reboot before it will play anything at all, good to see it hasn't gone unnoticed by others.

Considering "MKV" is really just a container for other codecs, have you tried seeing what the video and audio are encoded in for this file as well as a file you are not having issues with?

Well, I don't know what that will be helpful for? I'm not the one to fix this problem. Google engineers should do that.
Regardless of the video format and codecs, if the format is not supported then it should not cause all the videos subsystem to break down. It should just say its not supported.
By the way, Android 4.3 improved a little bit. Now the problem is not so easily reproducible like in 4.2.2.

Hi guys,
I updated my Nexus 7 to 4.3 today and I'm now no longer able to play my previously working video files. I've used both VLC and AVP, the file plays but I get sound only and no picture.
The thumbnails for the files are displaying correctly. These are movies in .mkv and .avi format which used to work with no problems.
Has anyone else experienced this and do you think it may be a 4.3 issue or perhaps an app compatibility problem with the new Android version?
Thanks.

It isn't just you. A number of video players are not functional with 4.3. All you can do is review them in the play store and tell them. I am sure most of the App Devs are probably aware of this, but who knows...
This also happened from 4.1.2 to 4.2, just wait a day and it will be fixed by app updates

This is true, but most were a couple of weeks to be re-coded, including MX Player. What is funny is that right after I installed 4.3, MX player and a couple of others worked for a few hours then I got the Unsupported Android Version. I thought that was rather odd...
Cheers guys, I figured as much. Just wanted to make sure nothing got botched along the way!

Vplayer now supports 4.3
Videos in some games are tiny for me too, meh.
The stock video player still works of course, even for mkv files. Except no subtitles and it can't play hi10p.
Just found out I now prefer Vplayer to MX Player.
Ive always looked no further than MX cause I thought it was the best, now that Vplayer has had an update for 4.3 I tried it and like it very much. Very similar to MX but much more appealing.
