Screen Locking Video Player - T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a video player app that locks the screen so that you can't use the capacitive buttons or mess with the touchscreen . I need this for my 1 year old daughter
I'm on CM12 rom by the way.
Thanks!

The stock video player does this. Just press the power button while the video is playing and it locks it.
Whoops my bad, didn't see the cm12 part. I don't know about that one. I think mx player had something like that.
Never mind, with mx the home and recent buttons still activate.

Poweramp and poweramp only. Although I've been playing around with voice commands in the stock music player - not bad. But not good enough to make me switch over from poweramp.
Poweramp. Hands down

Poweramp all the way. Been using for over a year and no complaints.

I use Music Folder Player - Simple, efficient with screen space, no unneeded chrome. I've got no complaints.
Only thing I wish it could do is play off an SMB share without mounting the share, with appropriate buffer sizing for playing over a network (doing it by rooting and mounting the share has skipping issues if network conditions aren't perfect... And it requires root - which i have now, but didn't have on my last phone)

YouTube app?

When I had my s3 I had a YouTube app that was modified so that the screen could be turned off and still have the audio playing. does anyone know of this app to be available on our phone?

You can try OgYouTube. It is just like the latest version of YouTube with a little modification.

I have one that works perfect. Works when youtube is minimized too.
Only problem is that its an older version of the youtube app.
I think this is the thread... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1529715
After you have it installed, hit the Menu button > Advanced Settings (scroll all the way down) > Check the Screen Off Playback button
Thats pretty much it....

Using Optional Music Player

So far, my Gear is stock.
I am wondering if I can control any other music player other than the stock one?

I believe you can control any music app, but you might loose some functionality of the controller.
I'm using PowerAMP on Note 3 and I can only change songs, volume play/pause but i can't see albumart of track name etc..

That's exactly the one I want to use. And I don't need to see the album art.
So I guess I would just freeze the native player then?

I have it sometimes. Soon as some Custom roms are available, it shouldn't be an issue.

Random sound when off

Randomly my phone will make a sound that is not my notification sound. It seems to happen when the screen is off and I pick it up and it's very random. It's like dooooodiloop
