Hi guys. Firstable I want to say hello, because im new here. I will start instantly:
I've got a problem with my Xperia u. Since i've installed eXpirience v2 (before i was using stock rom and i haven't noticed any video bugs) strange thing happened to my phone :E. When i am trying to play any video using player "films" or "ES Video player" i can see semi-transparent stippes which are more visible when i'm opening gui. I'm not sure if it's caused by damaged phone or software becasue i bought my Xperia a week ago and i have installed eXpirience one hour after my phone arrived to me. I hope you will forgive me mistakes. I'm learning english yet and i can't speak perfectly. Thank you for reading my topic and i hope you will say me what is the reason of my problem and may solution.
If it's just videos, it's a software problem. Try to play your videos with MX player and if there is no changes, try to reinstall the ROM or change your ROM! I find eXperience very uglyyyyy

Seems like it's happening while playing videos only. When I'm exploring websites or menu or even playing games it looks like everyting is ok. I'll try to install new ROM and give a sign here if new soft is the solution.
Edit: MX Player is doing the same : ( I'll try to reinstall ROM and install stock for example, but i will to it tomorrow. After testing i will post here how it's working
We've got a problem. When i'm exploring internet i can see the same strippes but only horizontally and only in one part of the screen. They're also visible only at site. I can't see it on Opera bar or that bar at the top of the screen.

Change the decoder to sw instead of hw..it will work..and untick the 2d hardware rendering option in developer option
Sent from my ST25i using xda premium
2d rendering is unticked by default. I have changed decoder and so far seems like everything is ok while playing videos. Hope it will keep actual condition. Thank you guys and got one more question: Why is it happening when i'm exploring websites and only if there's a picture on the screen? What is the reason?

Hi. I have 2 hero phones and a desire hd, so I love HTC. Anyhow my dad and wife use the hero phones and recently my wife complains that YouTube won't work. It says this video can't be played. Almost all videos are like this. My dads says he thinks his is the same but I will need to check.
The phones are not rooted and run 2.1. What can I do to fix this. All YouTube used to work fine when the hero was my own main phone. Would rooting and custom roms fix this.
Cheers des
Just a update. Videos older than about 1 year ago play fine, but newer than that won't play. I have installed tubemate and I can use that to watch newer videos, but it isn't as good to use as YouTube app. Also YouTube on the internet brings up a yellow ! when I try to play. Cheers.
Is this normal or am I missing something. Thanks guys.
It is because the new videos are played in HD. If you turn the phone to landscape, there is a HD button at the bottom. Press that and you'll be fine ... I hope ;-)
sent with love from me to you
Ok I tried this on both the hero phones and still the same problem. I can't play videos less that about 1 year old. What am I doing wrong. Cheers
hix
same me
i sometime i can play on youtube, now,i cant use flash play video
No one can help us ?
Try running the videos through Flash from browser m.youtube.com not Youtube app
Normally these kind videos run if you un check HQ option in the landscape mode
Post the video URL here, we can check if it works with an updated rooted phone.
This works for me. Where you see the HQ thing shows up just tap on it and it works.

the (adb install YouTube_signed.apk) should be (adb install signed_YouTube.apk). Good luck.

They should work if HD is turned off, but it doesn't seem to do so :/ I have no idead
Started having HD video problems with all miui based ROMS, Galnet, standard miui and wiui, videos either start playing and crash, dont play at all or just get a black screen. My recorded video from cam is also choppy. To check it wasnt my phone I loaded the latest chkrom, video played ok.
Want to stay with miui as anything I put on after miui just seems so clunky, anyone else finding this.
Mine does a similar thing although im not on a custom rom, ages ago my phone stopped playing .mkv's and now just recently it wont play certain .avi files or any .flac files at all however it still plays .mp4 fine
Im waiting for the proper ICS release to do a complete wipe and hope they work again.

you on stock rooted sammy rom then?
Ask on the Miui forums ?
Been using Galnet Miui for several months, have never had a problem playing videos of any format with either the native video player or MX. Same with test videos I've taken myself.

cant post on either forum, havent bothered to find out why to be honest as there isnt really much in there in the way of help like on there.
Can you tell me exactly what version you are on now, mine was ok on earlier versions. Everything played smoothly on stock video, mx player and dice, now nothing plays well and sometimes not at all.
Right now I'm using the newest MIUI weekly 2.2.17. The only player that seems to work with all kind of movie files is DicePlayer. All other are causing crashing and other strange issues (specially with HW mode). It should work ok for you as well tbh.
And you know this without even asking there ? Stunning piece of logic there champ
I've used 1.11.9, 2.11.26, 2.1.20 & 2.2.1 with different builds of Siyah and have never had a problem playing any video in any of the common formats on either MX or Galnet Video, nor have I had problems playing back test videos (short. I'm not about to make a 2 hr test video purely to see if it crashes a video player) I've recorded.

will give it a try, on a side note have you even been able to install the reboot options on a standard miui rom that you get with galnet?, tried a couple of times with no joy
i am using ndt miui, so far i didnt see any problem. maybe you can try to update the new one or another miui roms from others developer.
much better with DICE, mx still no longer works though and it was great before, smoother than DICE, not sure whats happend.
hi guys,
looked through the fora but could not find something maybe someone can help me out.
I have bad lag when i watch flashvideos in my browsers. all of them same lag. standardbrowser, skyfire, mozilla, dolphin.
Anyone with the same problem and even better anyone a solution?
Yeah I started thread couple week ago. It's in a q& a section. Unfortunately, there's no solution as of yet regarding video freezing but sound keep playing when streaming on network. Playing on wifi works fine.
One thing I found helps is restarting phone before starting Netflix for example or watching from browser.
Also note YouTube app does not suffer from this, so sometimes if it's a YouTube video embedded in the Page I just click on video link to be able to watch in the app instead of browser.
Waiting for JKay mod on GT-I9300

mine does the freezing on wifi too.so i am not the only one out there. i got to call samsung holland i guess. can not keep restarting the phone. but tell me what is this Jkay mod? can i do it on a non rooted phone?
Yes I'm also suffering this problem. On network or WiFi on all browsers. Pain in the arse!

Flash doesn't lag on the GS3. But it does freeze frequently. If it lags then very likely you aren't actually using flash but the html5 player instead.
Netflix app does not actually use nor is dependant on flash. Also uninstalling flash completely, so that videos that do play, default to html5, still freeze while sound keeps playing, which leads to conclusion that it's not flash issue.

Try ICS Browser+ from Google play...
Flash videos did lag for me initially, so I tried clearing the application data but that wasn't possible. So I installed flash 10, which was incompatible, then updated it using Google Play to flash 11 and it seems to work better now.

Hey guys im pretty new to this, i have been running my xperia U (rooted) on the old gingerbread for sometime now, finally bit the bullet and unrooted it and upgraded to ICS 4.0.4 via SCC. I quite like ICS its smoother and the phone runs faster (although battery life now suffers) the only issue i am having is I cant play videos on my phone; this includes camera video in the gallery and embedded videos on the browser. I have factory reset about 100 times still hasnt worked and have tried installing adobe air, flash etc still nothing. When i click on a video in the gallery for example i try touching the play button but nothing happens, the thumbnail and video still image is fine just there is no response from touching the play button.
Am i missing something? or am i being a complete tool, iv looked all over the forums for help on this but everyone else seems to be getting some kind of error message, mines just doesnt respond to the touch....
Help please! appreciates
thanks
Chris
please!
Maybe there is a problem in lib.
Sory for my bad English.
Press thanx if i helped.

Thanks for the replies guys but i would prefer to use the devices own video player as i like my menu to be as clutter free as possible with out any uneccesary apps. Update - I reinstalled firmware using SCC last night and video works perfect! untill i start removing the bloatware (like gmail, talk, movies, play now etc) using titanium backup and then the video goes to the same problem again... any suggestions?
could i try reflashing kernel? any one had this issue before?

hey mate thanks for the reply, everyone has recommended this but i dont like having apps on my phone that i really dont need i should be able to use the stock player, but its unresponsive. this goes for embedded vids too!
ALSO
i tried re installing firmware, got it working again but then as i was using Titanium back up to remove the bloatware it stopped working (also made sure i didnt accidently remove important files or programmes that the video player is dependant on...) im stumped! not a disaster but i like to watch the office before i go to sleep at night hahahahah
UPDATE- Found the problem i deleted the "movies" app in titanium which stops the videos from playing in the gallery, what sort of stupid **** is that!
