Hi,
Really enjoying my flyer but having 2 problems and wondering if it's just me?
It plays videos but every time I pause or fast forward or in any way try to change position of the movie, it.freezes on a single image and the soundtrack continues to run. It does this whatever video programme I use.
The other thing is that when I type in internet programmes, swype typing doesn't work.
If anyone can help with this, it would be greatly appreciated,
Andii
Is that a 1080p video? And what resolution is it? The flyer's codecs may be getting overwhelmed. Try downconverting the video to a lesser size.
Hi,
Thanks for your reply. It behaves the same with any size/resolution of video - although video playback online eg: via youtube works fine. I'm in the UK, as yet I haven't received the firmware update.
I haven't had that problem yet, but I can see it being an issue on any tablet or smart phone for some videos
Greetings from Portugal.
Before I start, yes, I have tried searching for it. Found a couple of old threads that didn't help much...
My question is: Is there a way to watch any video format without it stopping every few minutes?
If I use the stock player everything is fine, but it cannot support several video formats like avi, rmvb... etc. I use the MX player, but on some types of video, it stopps every few minutes. It's sooooo annoying!
From what i've seen in some threads, it happens with other video apps too. AND, when i am watching something directly from the internet, like fastpasstv, the video stops loading also every few minutes. I have to restart the loading from the middle... not hard, but also annoying. (using stock browser, and this doesn't happen on youtube for example)
Is the issue related? Since it seems to be happening to both online and offline video viewing...
I am stock, non-rooted, and non-unlocked... Wifi is fine.
I have the same problem. But it is a MX Player specific one for me. BS Player works fine (but has other issues).
Edit: I tried with the 'Performance Mode' and it works so far. Maybe a workaround?
I never have this problem when streaming one of many video formats from my PC to my Prime using ES File Manager to find the video files on my PC and MX to play them as streams.
Is this something that you tend to experience with streams/videos being played directly on the Prime?
For me it is locally played .ts videos.
Meanwhile I found this thread http://groups.google.com/group/mx-videoplayer/browse_thread/thread/533d7296c0305183
It might be a Prime/ICS problem. There seems to be no solution up to now.
I get this same issue trying to stream video from sites other than youtube. It is when I'm streaming that I get most of the lock ups with the prime, reboots, etc. Maybe it is something to do with the allotted cache size of the browser being used up and cleared to make room for more buffered video?
It is rather annoying. You basically have to let it load and watch the whole thing as it goes. If I hit pause or so anything else then it risks stopping the stream where ever its at in the buffering. It's nice to have it start loading up, hitting pause, and walking away for a few minutes to let it buffer up. But then when I come back it would have just stopped about a 1/3 into it or 1/2 way. It would require hitting the reload button at the top or having to close the browser, kill it in the task manager, and then reopen it.
I don't have this issue with Netflix though. They did something right in their app.
I used to have this issue with mx player. It really sucked having to restart a movie every 5-10 minutes.
You want to use Dice Player. It's played everything I've thrown at it. All in Hardware rendering so the screen goes blank when plugged into HDMI.
Haven't had any issues since. I'm using the paid version, I assume they are both alright though.
Hi. I've been using M5 for a few hours and noticed a problem with Vlc for Android. I'm playing video content via IPTV app in Vlc. The problem is, i can't exit full screen or close the Vlc app. If i double tapp the screen, the content goes to pause, but that's it, there're no floating buttons. If i lock it with power button, it just goes black and i have to force reboot it. I noticed same problem with few other players, BSplayer works fine, but Vlc is quicker at opening m3u. Can anyone else confirm this? Best regards.
Yes... Changed to mx player instead.
I can confirm, created another thread here (I also have pretty much the same problem with Play Movies): https://forum.xda-developers.com/mediapad-m5/help/video-playback-t3772149
The only way I found is to turn the tablet in portrait... and you find the control again... Quite bothering me...
The problem was fixed with the update.
I noticed a small stuttering while streaming m3u on VLC through IPTV.. The video just freezes for a milisecond every 8-10 seconds.. Can anyone check?
P. S. : the stuttering is present only, when subtitle track is selected.. When the line changes, it glinches.
Hi guys,
How can I prevent the freeze I get after about 30m-1h? I've searched all over the web for an answer but to no avail. I use bubbleupnp to stream TV channels (m3u or m3u8) to chromecast with my samsung s8, and the streams almost always freeze, it kinda pauses (still pic, no sound) and I have to go back to my tv app and press play again for it to start again in real time.
I tried everything, tried changing various settings but they always freeze after about 1h or sometimes less. Sound and video start to either play out of sync or stutter sometimes and after 1 minute or so, everything just pauses and the stream is kinda dead. Sometimes the freeze just happens without any signs or warnings. Not all channels behave like this, but almost all do. I tried using vlc and they work fine. So it is 100% something with Bubbleupnp. I tried using a server, same thing. I did buy the license and made a battery rule for it so it's not that.
PLEASE HELP! Feels like i paid for something that doesn't work at all!
Bump
Can anybody respond lol?!
Hi everyone, i have a Mate 10 Pro and a uni USB-C to HDMI cable. With that cable i connect the phone to a monitor, and i can do everything without problems: with both Phone Mode and Desktop Mode, i can watch VLC videos, play emulators and use remote play apps, and other things.
But there is a problem when i use streaming apps with DRM contents like Netflix, Disney+ and Prime Video. With Phone Mode, whenever i use these apps in their menus it seems all fine, but when i play something there is a strange behavior: on the monitor i can see the video and hear the audio, but there are no subtitles and i can't see the UI of the app, while on the phone there is everything. Usually is not a big deal, but sometimes is uncomfortable, like in a movie where someone speak a foreign language and there are subtitles to understand him but i can't see them beacause of this, or when a episode is over and there is the menu to go to the next and i want to stop it but i can't see it and so the next episode start.
I also have tried the Destop Mode, and is worse: when i play something there is the audio, the subtitles and the UI, but the video is black.
I understand that is something related to the DRM, but there is a solution to this? At least for the Phone Mode...
Thanks for the help.
