I am trying to stream google play music from my HTC One to Media Link - but it won't play a song while connected to media link. Works fine when not connected to Media Link. I can force it to play by disconnecting from Media Link start playing a song on Google Play then connect to Media Link - but then it only lasts for that one song. Anyone else have this same problem or have any ideas? PowerAmp works fine and all other streaming including netflix.
My HTC One Google Play Edition can't play Google Play Movies. After I click the play icon, there is a spinning circle for quite a while and then I get "There was a problem while playing [-2147484648] Touch to retry". Retrying gets same error message. I've downloaded a movie and get the same result. Playing YouTube videos works fine.
If you have a GPe, can you play Google Movies? Is this a general problem or specific to my phone and I should ask for a replacement?
Thanks,
Martin
i get the same issues
I am on 4.2.2 HTC one and Google movies just don't play
Hello everyone,
I'm having a problem playing music from my device using the htc Music app.
When I had the Evo 4g LTE, it worked fine. When I would connect my phone to the media link and play a song, the media link would stop mirroring my device and bring a screen up specific to the music app.
Now with my One, it just continues to mirror my phone, which makes the playback incredibly unreliable.
Is this a problem with the ROM that I'm using, or just with the One in general?
Thanks for your feedback!

I recently (early February) factory reset my HD+ and then let it update completely to the newest stock software version before rooting it. Now, whenever I try to play a video, whether it is an m4v/mp4 file I manually placed onto the SD card, or a streamed video from Vudu, or a downloaded video from Vudu, or a streamed video from Google Play Movies, or a downloaded video from Google Play Movies, it won't play. At all. It opens up whichever video player I choose (I've tried the built-in player, BS Player, MX Player, and VLC), but the player will then load endlessly. I can't seek forward by clicking the progress bar. When I try to play a movie direct from the Vudu app, it buffers endlessly, even for a video I've downloaded. Same with a video from Google Play Movies. Sometimes the loading circle or buffer notice will freeze, and I'll get a notice that whichever app I'm using is not responding and if I want to wait or close.
I haven't been able to find anything about this issue that anyone else is having. Any ideas?
I'll take a wild guess that its from rooting stock.
When I stream an audio file on my Note 5, it plays in the Google Play Music app that came with the phone. If I click off of the app as it plays the file, the audio stops playing altogether and the app basically closes. I have to restart the stream and then find the point that it stopped to resume. So, I cannot do anything on the phone with the audio playing the background it seems. I believe this happens if I play a video via the stock video player app as well. Is there a way where I can play such files in the background while I surf the 'net or do other tasks on my phone? Is there an app that might accomplish this on Android??? TIA.

How do I do this? When I click on any audio file on the Note 5, it only gives me the option of playing it (streaming it) with the Google Play Music app or downloading it. If I download it, I can still only open it and play it with the Google Play Music app. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Go to Settings > Application manager > More > More > Reset Apps preference > check ok. Now you can choose to play files over gplay music, stock music player ot 3rh party apps

Great! I did that and it does now give me the option of playing via Google Play Music app or the stock music player. However, I still cannot do anything else on the phone without the audio file pausing and/or stopping the playing of the audio file. For example, I just downloaded a podcast file onto my phone, opened it and told it to play it with the stock music player app. It will sit there and play the entire hour-long podcast just fine. But, if I need to go check a text message I received or look at something on the Internet, the stock music player stops playing the audio file (pauses playback of it) until I finish checking the text message or complete the Internet task and go back to the stock music player and click on the "play" button. I would prefer that it keeps playing the audio file when I minimize it to go check text messages or e-mails or do something on the Internet. Or is there maybe a 3rd party app that will do this??? Thanks for your help!

It appears that you use "my files" to play your music..you have been using the pop up music player and thus it will stop when you exit. Try to play music via the music app, search your music in the app itself and not from your downloaded files. Once you are in the stock music app,go to tracks and all your downloaded music will appear

Don't ask me why I didn't think of trying this before, but I didn't. I just opened the stock music player and went to tracks (just ask you described), the podcast files were there. I clicked on the one I was listening to last night and proceeded to check my text messages and e-mail and the audio kept playing in the background. Thanks for mentioning this! Really appreciate it! :good: :good: :good:
