Hey Guys, I tried Almost all the media/Video players present in the MARKET
but those are unable to play some MP4 files on custom roms(almost all roms).
Only stock rom can play them
but i don't like stock rom. So please help or share your idea if anyone have?

[Q] When does the Sony Bravia Engine 2 work?

Searched online came out empty.
When does the engine2 work?? YouTube videos? Movies that I add to the phone?
Any pictures or videos that are viewed in the Sony Album app perhaps?
THanks!

It works when viewing pics on the album, watching movies with the standard video player. It also works on youtube and with some 3rd party video players that support hardware decoding, such as MX player
It also should be noted that when you unlock your bootloader, you also lose BE.

As stated before videos, pics and supported 3rd party players. you can notice the effect if you open one of the standard sony pics from the widget. it opens it up and then changes the color nocitebly

I found this out pretty late too. I do it with a lot of apps, like buffering mx player in the background.
Ive read that an update is coming and that background playing is going to be possible soon with youtube

Thank you kind Sir. I was looking for a way to do this for quite a while now.
This trick only works with the version that is currently in the Play Store, not the current modified (screen off and 1080p playback) one that is floating around XDA.
Still, once switched to the homescreen, screen-off playback works too.
Just download viral from the play store it allows you to play YouTube in a small window or run in the background

There are many apps that do this. But this is a great way to do not without the extra apps. Thanks OP!

Yes, there are many apps for that, but I asked myself, why using other apps when I can use original YouTube. Anyway, thanks for support and nice comments !
Does it work all the time?

Yeah but you need root + custom rom to use Halo (I know there are some app that emulate it). Viral can use on any device and its very fast, probably use less resources than the Youtube app itself. I can even use it as an offline video player if you set links to open in pop up mode (which then can be fullscreened), I don't even need MXPlayer anymore. Also with Viral you can select YouTube videos to play in any existing resolution available.
Do you guys have any rom review suggestion for me? I want to do review of some rom

YouTube has always driven me nuts with this issue. Many times I just want to listen. I hope the make some changes. The TV connect always popping up in the way, the new comments system.. Etc.
Haven't tried this mod yet but sounds good.

Youtube question--

how do you get it to keep playing in the background? without enabling multitasking windows, through status bar?
Thanks in advanced..

The only way to do it is to get a modded YouTube application.

I cannot either, my N910T doesn't allow it either. Where is this aforementioned 'modded' YouTube?
