I am fully stock, no root or unlock with the newest jelly bean for AT&T on my optimus g. I noticed when using chrome to view videos on websites the video turns black as soon as the on screen controls fade in full screen mode.
This is happening when using the newest version of chrome. is anyone else having this issue?
Here's how I reproduce the issue.
view any website with embedded video players such as gawker.
play an embedded video
set it to full screen
on my phone as soon as the on screen controls fade away, the video also becomes black.
I'm seeing this too
It's just an issue with chrome. It happens to us Sprint users as well. Use the stock browser. You won't have the problem.
ME TOO!
I would love to use Chrome and all of ts features but the lack of fullscreen video playback is a deal breaker for me. If you go back to the original version of Chrome that comes installed in the phone it works fine. But who wants an old version of Chrome? I mean the whole point of using the chrome browser is for all of its cool features and upgrades that happens when you update it. I left them a 1 start review on the comments hopefully they fix it.

Thanks
Thanks from me also.
I have been digging on the net and uninstalling programs to see what the problem was.
I should have known it would be something simple.

Netflicks now has an update that fixes some issue as on the mega you don't have to turn the mega into landscape mode to start any movie and now works on android 4.3 as i have this on my note 1..it should be available as your device should notify you of the update..works awesome now.
Can't see the video on Netflix
I can log in, choose a movie, the movie starts, but though I can see the subtitles I can't see the image. Can you help me?
My phone is a GT-I9500
The pictures and videos are beautiful. Watching Netflix or Hulu are just as beautiful as they were on the Note. Extremely pleased customer....
I have i9305. On all the custom Android 4.4.4 ROMs i tried i cannot play YouTube videos in browsers properly. The sound works, but graphics are bugged:
In Android browser:
Playing the video shows it as black screen with the Youtube text copied in the middle (see attached screenshot). Maximizing results in black screen, but which shows a video frame when phone orientation changes or screnshot is taken.
Navigating away from the video results in browser crash.
In Chrome:
Playing the video works nicely even with graphics, but maximizing again shows black screen, also briefly working on screen update (phone rotated etc).
Navigating away again results in browser crash.
Youtube app works fine, but i am afraid the bug might show for another site / game. I didnt install any Flash manually, so i think the problem is with HTML 5 support. When i reverted to 4.2.2 or used stock samsung 4.3 everything worked as it should.
So is it a problem with i9305 only or with Android 4.4.4? Or should i flash a new kernel or something? Thanks for info.
I do have the same issue on my GT I9300. I even tried a Lollipop ROM but the issue is still there. If anyone knows where is it come from

It seems to be an asop error. Get a mod to move this to the 9305 area for more help with your model.
Have you solved the problem?
Hi, have you solved this problem? Please share solution if you did.
Thanx
Hi there, this is my first post but I'm not new to the world of custom ROMs.
I have had many ROMs over the years and have recently flashed the slimsaber 4.4.4 v9 with dorimanx 3.14.
All seems to be well apart from a few minor issues that are not of any concern. That is apart from YouTube! My favourite app. It will no longer allow my to select anything greater than 360p. Kind of annoying. I have tried many things to fix this. Like flashing the ROM again. Adjusting DPI to 200. Even used xposed installer. And I can't figure it out.
It was working fine on my previous ROM (jb. I went back to stock ROM) I have not reflashed since the problem but might try as a last resort.
Please can someone help with this. I have read many forums that date back a few years relating to this issue and have tried suggested fixes.
Why is this happening? Could it be a hardware problem?
Thanks
Mark

Hi
I suppose you searched already in slimsaber 4.4.4 thread for you tube problems? I saw several posts concerning this matter.
Does you tube properly work when using Browser (test not only with stock Browser but others like Dolphin).
Sent from my STAIRWAY using XDA-Developers mobile app
Thanks for quick response.
YouTube only plays audio on stock browser. On dolphin it works the same as the app.
I'll check the threads again.
Are there any video drivers that can be installed. Is there a way of formatting that will rectify it? Any one have any suggestions?
@elemenopy
I don't quite get what the point is. I think our device's screen resolution is only 360p, right? So it doesn't make sense to try bigger resolutions in YouTube, as you will see no difference. Someone correct me if this is wrong.
As far as i know screen resolution is 480 x 800 pixels

Hi,
You can't install any video drivers onto the ROM as the correct ones are provided by the kernel.
If you really want higher than 360p, try using this modded youtube app:
[MOD] YouTube 4.4.11 (v5b), *1080p* / 720p HD (over WiFi & 3G), screen off playback
Please note that the screen resolution is 480p, but youtube only defaults to 360p.
Note: Dev-host link is a bit dodgy because one of the download buttons seem to be an ad. The correct download button is safe and I've used it on my S2.

Yeah, forgive my ignorance on that part. I'm back on stock 4.1.2 and YouTube only allows 360p. However, I guess the reason why I was hunting for this 'fix' was due to a pixelated image on YouTube when on the slimsaber rom. Also the stock browser would not play video image only audio. This has now gone back to normal now that I'm on jb.

Cheers saber.
I'll give it a go.
I have been experiencing this weird bug where after a day or two, videos inside apps like prime video, youtube, vanced stop working (tested only these). The video works fine when I open youtube in browser but these app seem like stuck in a loading state. Even funnier thing is that I couldn't record my screen when this happens. The screen recording floating window hangs as well. The only thing that I know fixes this is a restart.
Please help me out guys. If you want then I can record the screen using another device.
Haven't faced anything like this on my nord 2. I advice you to do a factory reset and do check whether you are in the latest build or not.
I am facing similar issue please someone help
