Garbled audio when uploading to youtube - Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've found that taking a video that's been recorded with my phone and uploading it to youtube results in a garbled mess of audio but the video is fine.
It seems to do this from a direct upload or saving the 3gp and uploading it to youtube from the PC.
The audio sounds like a voice scrambler on a walkie talkie (if you've ever heard/used one)
I've uploaded videos in the past when I had KaosFroyo, but GSB didn't seem to work.

I'm guessing Youtube doesn't like the audio codec being used?

[Q] Sound Disappears on some recorded videos?

I've had two videos randomly lose sound this last week recording video clips. They both DID work with sound at first, and when I played them back/uploaded on youtube they mysteriously lost sound on the phone and youtube - I can't quite figure out what it could be. It has a 'pop' sound at the beginning of the video like it wants to play the sound, but doesn't. I've test uploaded some videos to youtube and can't reproduce it. I've recorded many videos and it seems to be random...
Thoughts?

Are you covering up the mics when you record? Remember, there are two.

[Q] MSM8660 video playback [MKV issue]

Firstly, I use mVideoPlayer pro (an excellent video player) which doesn't include any software decoding. The player only uses the soc codecs but adds subtitle support and it recognizes the .mkv extension.
The latest version now supports:
- srt, ssa, ass, sub/idx, mpl, smi, txt, sub, sami.
- Internal MKV Subtitle (srt, ssa, ass)
Anyway, I have 2 identical video samples (.mkv), but only one of them will play. (using mvideo or stock player).
I am wondering if this is a software bug and if anyone has had the same issues?
The samples are both H264 MPEG4 AVC, 23.97 frames with DTS Audio (no audio is expected). One video is 1280x544 and the other is 1280x532. The only difference is that one has internal subtitles and the other does not.
Any info would be appreciated.
I'm having similar issues . One video will play audio just fine but will freeze playing the video a few seconds in but continue with audio. The other video is just extremely stuttery. I don't have codec specifics or video specifics at the moment but it is an issue .
Grrr!

Funny enough, some of my videos start off blocky or have that green video effect for the first 2 seconds, but then play fine afterwards. I don't get any freezing during play. If a video starts to play, it continues fine for me. (Although, I haven't watched a full length movie as yet).
Did you get the 2 HTC updates? I did a check for HTC updates and factory reset my phone as soon as i got it. (lost the stupid hornet movie)
I am downloading more 720p video samples for testing. it may be the internal subs causing my issue, which would be strange.
(EDIT: xvid has the same problem, some video plays some don't)

Wow, this app seems really nice. I was using the latest rockplayer because it had hardware decoding, but I noticed that it wouldn't play audio on any of my 720p mkvs. This app looks much more polished, and the video plays back every bit as smoothly, but it appears to have the same problem of not playing any audio along with the video. God, we're so close!!
Oh, I tried samples with DTS and some that were just 720p rips from broadcast tv, and neither had audio. For that reason, I didn't test enough of the video to verify your issues, sorry for the threadjack.

It wont play DTS audio and that is expected. Only my Archos 101 could play DTS audio out of the box, but Archos added that decoding feature.
Try encoding with Handbrake, the default setting will convert the DTS audio to MPEG AAC stereo.
So I tried more random MPEG4 AVC with DTS videos and I am very confused:
video #1 1280x720 had subs, didn't play
video #2 1920x800 no subs, video played
video #3 1280x534 no subs, didn't play
video #4 1280x720 no subs, video played
More tests:
I used mediainfo and compared codec data between several video files that played and some that didn't play and they all look the same.
I even used mkvmerge GUI to remove the audio and subtitles out of some of the videos just to see if that would work, but they still didn't play.
try dice player.
diceplayer can play 720p H.264 High + DTS +MKV flawlessly.

[Q]-Posting YouTube videos from Eris

I recently tried posting a video to YouTube that was taken from the standard camera app on my Eris. When posted to YouTube, the audio codec is messed up. Normal speech comes out massively garbled and then the audio cuts out about a minute in. I converted the 3gp file to an avi on my PC but it comes out tilted 90 degrees when I do that. Does anybody know of a way of sharing a video to youtube and have the audio work properly?
I had the same problem. The only thing i found that fixes it was to just delete the video and upload it again. might take a couple times to fix though. somebody might have the issue solved.....i usually upload through my gallery and not the youtube app, i dont have any problems when uploading from there
I did the exact same things. I even took the file down to my PC and uploaded it from there. It seems like YouTube is not supporting the file format. It plays fine on the phone and plays fine on my PC using quicktime. I uploaded the original video several times and another one and the problem kept happening. I'm also uploading from the gallery by clicking share>YouTube. Any other ideas>
ok here is what i have found out. with my stock video recorder - the sounds comes in for split second then the video just stays on a single frame and doesnt move but the video bar on bottom shows its playing. So then i tried with the Miui camera app i have installed - it plays the video just perfect BUT with no sound. Right now im looking into apps on the market to replace the stock camcorder, found one but it forcloses on me after recording. Its called "anCorder" try it out it might work for u. I know for a fact that the app called "videocam Illusion" does upload to Youtube and does upload just great with no problems.
Thanks Ricky. I will try those.
Ancorder definitely FCed just as you end your video recording. Videocam illusion did great in a small upload test. I noticed the format was .mov instead of .3gp so I think that helped.

[Q] Best media player utilizing HW accel?

I am looking for something than can play wmv/ogm/mkv/xvid/mp4/etc supporting multiple audio streams and multiple subtitle tracks
Any suggestions? I would prefer something that is accelerated so the phone's specs will help video run well as the resolution and file-sizes of the video files are quite large
Dice player....

Thanks
Works well, but my MP4 video 5.1 sound files have a horrible crackling noise when it gets to loud parts. Decreasing volume doesn't help.
Ack double post! Just wanted to update on my progress:
Mobo player - won't open video for some reason, says it "can't open /mnt/sdcard/extsd........" error. Doesn't seem to be codec/decoder related as it does it regardless
MX Player - Works only in software mode, regardless of which decoder I use the video switched to "SW (FAST)" mode and shows HW as unavailable
Dice Player - Like I said above works GREAAAT except for popping/crackling audio. Software decoding works with audio but makes the video horrible and slow and laggy.
[EDIT]
RockPlayer Lite - Will not play the video file
VPlayer - Crackling audio, slow video playback even with codec/decoder
[EDIT 2]
Dolphin Player - Will not play the video file
[EDIT 3]
QQ Player - Will not play the video file
Shameful triple-post thread BUMP
Desperate for a video player with HW acceleration that decodes 5.1 AAC without terrible crackling noise.
Other alternative is to re-encode all videos but that is waaaay too much work, and is only a last resort.
Must be something in the encode it doesn't like. Stock player should play mp4 just fine, dunno how it handles 5.1.

sound on videos

hi guys i am running an xt910 on 676.226.3 with the beats audio app and i am facing a strange issue on video playback. it plays the video but it doesnt give any sound output. i have tried mx player, stock and a couple of others but nothing. also it does the same on youtube videos with all the browsers, opera, chrome, stock, youtube app. the strange thing is that if i open a video file with poweramp it plays the sound, but poweramp is for audio files so i have no image. on the 672.180.33 the videos played correctly with sound but on the 676.226.3 i dont remember trying it without the beats audio. what should i do?
the problem was caused by the beats audio app i frozed it with titanium and everything is fine now
