External videoplayer for browser videos - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is it possible to view online videos from the stock android browser on an external video player app. Now the video just opens in the stock browser. I don't always get the video choose prompt when viewing a video on the stock browser.

Streaming Video distorted picture

I'm having problems viewing streaming media in Dropbox and via Plex Media server. The picture seems distorted. See attached picture.
Watching local videos goes well... Using stock player or mxplayer...
I'm running stock cm10.1 nightly 25 januari.
Any ideas?

I've tried several 4k videos and there was no lag/stutter or issues with regards to overheating.
Try an alternative video player? I recommend BS Player, excellent player. Plays every format and even supports subtitles. :laugh:

MX Player is also awesome. I bet it also boils down to codec, bitrate, size etc. so keep that in mind.

1. YouTube compresses all videos, so you're not getting full quality
2. The Android YouTube-app only supports 720p.
3. Download a genuine 4K video and transfer it to your Ultra. YouTube is ****ty for this purpose.

I tested a little but really don't know much about video. Did notice tubemate will let you choose 4k to download but uses another app to prices it for storage , then MX will only use s/w decoding to play it. Dolphin browser with hacked flash player will play 4k from YouTube but then I have poor network for tested.

Doesn't help. The resolution will be "4K", but it won't be near full quality. You won't get true untouched 4K from YouTube. Google " 4K test file" or something instead, and do not use streaming services to test video quality.

Yeah never overheated or lagged when playing 4k content my Z ultra. Only thing i noticed was that sometimes it caused the homescreen to redraw when i pressed home. Sometimes.

You may be playing true 4k or above. Some devices won't even play videos that have resolutions higher than 4k. Try 3840 x 2160 for example.

[Q] Video wont play, audio will?

delete thread, issue solved
If I understand you correctly the app is opening up your browser and the video within the webpage won't play..try using Flashfox browser, it's in the playstore.
