Hi. I have some serious issue with my vibrant which is just 3~4 months old
Recently, my vibrant had problem playing video files. When I play a certain
video, it stops playing within 1 minute, pause, and I have to manually press "play"
again in order to start a video again. The problem is, same thing happens
after I press the play button, within 1 minute, video stops, pause, and I have to
do the same thing over and over. This happens when I play a video with stock
video player. Let's say If I play a movie with "soul movie," then the different problem
persists, where this time the video turns into black screen and then continue on
playing for about another less than a minute again. Although I do not have to press the play
button in the "soul movie", the video doesn't last 1 min before it turns into black
screen and resume again.
I haven't had this problem at all until recent days, I tried everything I could,
rebooting, re-inserting micro sd. It can't be codec problem cuz I used to play
this video flawlessly before. Now, I hope I don't have to "factory reset" the
phone. I'm very reluctant to do it. (Also, I don't know how to...)
Can anyone please help me with these issues. I'll really appreciate it
Thank you and HAPPY NEW YEAR.
try an alternate video player like doubletwist and see if the problem still persists.I know I don't use the stock music our video players for anything, they're kinda bad.

thanks for reply. I tried doubletwist and same thing happens as when i play movie with soul movie.
So, it's like
STOCK MOVIE PLAYER-----> PLAY, STOP PLAYING, AND NEED TO RESUME MANUALLY
SOUL MOVIE, DOUBLE TWIST-----> PLAY, BLACK SCREEN, AND AUTO PLAY AGAIN
THIS ALL OCCURS WITHIN 1 MIN OF PLAYING ANY MOVIE
Running Vegan 5.1.1 Froyo and after roughly 15 mins of playing videos it freezes up then reboots with the "popping" sound.
Another issue i've encountered yet could not replicate was that when playing the standard android music player it spazzes out sound wise then restarts to the start of the song but the time on the song is still where it left off.
According to my searches apparently the Archos doesn't sleep like normal android devices and when the screen shuts off a few seconds after it shuts down all the podcast players I've tried. Anybody have a podcast player that works.
When streaming video from youtube, or other sites and I hit pause during that stream, the entire loading of the stream will stop. Whatever is buffered will play but the stream will not resume loading from that point forward.
Example: Say I'm streaming a cartoon from the web and the clip is 5min long. About 2min into the clip I have to pause it because the phone rings. When I come back it will only play another 30 seconds and then stop (the stream which was already buffered plays). The player will just show the little symbol for loading/buffering but the wifi transfer icon on the tablet is doing nothing. I will have to reload the page and the video from the beginning.
The same can happen if I try moving around the clip. If I wanted to jump 30 seconds into the clip or backward in time it can trigger the player to stop loading. It will also happen if I open another app and return to the browser; like reading a new email. If I'm using netflix to stream I don't run into this problem. I assume its because of their programing in the app etc.
Is this a limitation to streaming video on mobile devices when it doesn't complete the buffering if interrupted? A computer will just continue to buffer it into memory for playback but are mobile devices set up to stop that loading so that memory is kept free? I know our primes have browser issues with freezing and rebooting but I don't know if this is part of the browser issues the broader prime community is experiencing.
I am on stock os, I use boat browser and the stock browser, and tried the suggested remove all browsers, uninstall flash, and reinstall trick. My phone has always been bad at streaming video so I can't really compare that with my tablet.
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?!
