As the title suggests, I'm unable to stream video, this all happened after upgrading from CM9 to CM10. I've tried different apps, YouTube, TED, Netflix, neither work.
I can watch regular videos just fine, including 720p.
Any ideas what's up?

Did you tried those streaming videos on any other phones as well.
Yes, the videos work fine on other devices...
I am able to watch clips stored on my phone, regular files, and I am able to watch clips on other devices (watched some 720p videos from my laptop with MX Player)
I am unable to stream video whether they are in the browser, the YouTube app; TED Talks app; Netflix app, or anything else.
What happens when I try is the thing loads, the duration of the clip is shown in the progress bar, but it refuses to play, just goes in an endless loop of looking like the buffering is finished.

try vplayer and see if it helps
I don't think you understand.
I don't have a problem with regular video clips (which is what vplayer does), i have a problem solely with streaming video.

Hi. First of all, did you fix permissions when you installed cm10? Was it a clean install? If so, try to stream your videos over WiFi, not over EDGE network. A few months ago I was unable to watch you tube videos on my PC and on my phone over WiFi (over 3G network it worked) and I called my ISP after that, in 2 days everything was just like before. YouTube worked again. So, it may be a problem with your ISP too (if using WiFi from home although is less probable).
Ultimately you can try dalvik/cache wipe and reinstall cm10 or try a different ROM, maybe it's gonna solve the problem.
I hope this helps.
Naw it wasn't a clean install (when going from CM9), I did the usual dalvik wipe but that was it. I was going to do a clean install once CM10 stable came out anyway, so I guess I'll take your advice and do a proper upgrade now...
The problem is persistent btw, wifi or 3g doesn't make a diff, but lets see what happens after the wipe.
Thanks

So I did a proper install: full wipe, installed cm10 stable, and flashed semaphore kernel 2.6.0.
After restoring my backup, everything worked. YouTube, TED, Netflix, regular video playback, all good.
Then today, no go, video playback works, but streaming video in either apps no longer works.
The only difference between today and before is that I tried using H/W+ decoder in MX Player, could that have broken it somehow?
Before posting I fixed permissions and rebooted, no change.
Ideas?

Recently I am using the Note to record video. The quality is very good. But When I copied it to my Windows PC and play it, I find the frame is upside down (I am using kmplayer). Does anyone encounter such problem before? Please help me out.
A related problem is that the video size is very large ([email protected] generate 650MB mp4 file). Is there some video converter that can reduce the file size without sacrificing too much video quality?
Did you check with other players on PC? It may be a video player problem aslo..

First always record videos in landscape mode, never use portrait. And if you have videos that are played upside down on your pc use one of the free.softwares out there to change the orientation of a video. Try google with the keywords video change orientation or something similar.

I'm on .211 but the issue is there
I'm on 284 still no fix.
I notice it happens only with mkv. and both bs and mx player will freeze at the same place. So I assume if there's some error in the video, unlike other phone the XSP will freezes and die instead of skipping few frames.

Yup. The video play well on my fonpad too. Probably a clean installation could fix it I guess. But I'm too damn lazy to do it

this is the official support forum for xperia sp: you can try to explain you problem here..
mkv file is in the internal storage or in the microsd?
As for me, it didn't matter, both storage also prone to freezes.

The walkman on the Z1 is awful, it crashes fairly frequently, skips songs randomly, doesn't show album artwork properly and keeps trying to sign into the Sony network.

Walkman works great for me, the best player I have ever had...
The only downside is the lack of lossless formats support...
(I also own a copy of PowerAmp)
I said no google play links on poweramp!
Wecond of all, I need more tuning of the player, I have good headphones, so I want something more

Walkman is the best music app I have used. Use the download music info to get all the album art. It has never forced closed on me on my z zl or z1. Try and clear app data. As for links buy the app from google play, you won't find links to pirated software on XDA support the devs.

Not sure why your having so many problems with the Walkman Player. Have you tried clearing the data? I used many of the music players and even purchased a few (like PowerAmp) but for a free included app, Walkman is great. I fix album art with a mp3 editor app. Are you looking for a pirated copy of PowerAMP? Its worth the price.

I used to use Google Music as my primary player but I am in love with the walkman player. I used to use GMusicFS to mount those songs in Walkman but eventually found it easier to just keep my favorite albums on my phone as even with that I had skips in my music. I do keep it installed though in case I want to listen to anything else. At about 18,000 songs so far, I love that service.

If mx player has problem, you can switch between software or hardware decoder, which does make a difference.
