Hi, after upgrade to Oreo I have strange problems with sound and videos. Don't know for what reson the sound stops suddenly and the video works frame by frame. It does not matter if it's video from gallery or YT or music from spootify or built-in player. After reboot everything is ok but no one knows when it will happen again.
EDIT: ok I know when this start to happend. After using of @cstark27 google phone app ;/ Anyone can confirm that?
look for an apps that eats CPU or has memory leaks.
however you might put it... your installed apps are to blame
I can confirm that problem. It also happens with other gcam mods. I guess for now using the stock camera app seems to be the only solution :/
EDIT: It only seems to happen when using HDR or HDR+. During the HDR post processing (which is inidicated through that little loading animation in the gallery app) music suddenly stops playing.
EDIT 2: I think i found a solution. As odd as it may sound, but enabling camera.raisr in the developer settings stops the camera from breaking music and video playback.

Mhmm very strange. I did reinstall the app tough. Maybe the combination of reinstalling, enabling camera.raisr and clearing the apps cache afterwards fixed it
Unfortunetly still the same...Have no idea whay is wrong.
Does enabling the camera.use_photos option on both apps, and force closing/rebooting solve it?
So it seems that to fix the issue, one need to do this in that order :
• Clear Data from both apps
• Reboot (might not be needed but sound safer)
• Go back under Developper settings of both apps and uncheck camera.raisr and check camera.use_photos
Seems to be stable after this, even after subsequent phone reboots
Will add this to this forum sticky
Thanks cstark ! Will keep you posted if the reboots come back.

I can't seem to find an app that records video in the background on my phone. I am running Task650 and Ktoonsez's AOKP build 6.8.12. I have tried Secret Video Record, Mobile Hidden Camera, Hidden Camera Spy Camera Free, and a couple others. These don't record video in the background correctly. The videos come out scrambled (with green lines usually). You can tell when the camera is being moved but you can't tell what is being recorded at all. Does anyone know how to fix the problem or of an app that works?
That ACLU secret recording app might work. Don't know if it saves video locally or on their servers though.

I am having the same problem. The video won't even play for me. Everything else works, just the background process causes it to screw up.

That's because Android does not allow recording video without showing preview (SurfaceView) to the user. When you hide preview and Android detects it - preview surface will be destroyed. Furthermore then surface is not longer valid - MediaRecorder (which records video) will crash.
All those apps try to overcome this restriction in different ways.
I've also tried to do it and published app: Hidden Video Camera.
Google Play link: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lofatsoftware.hvc
Application website: http://lofatsoftware.com/hidden-video-camera/
I've tested on bunch of different devices and it worked like a charm. You can try it for free and check if it works on your device.
Tried both stock 20A and fulmic 20c 2.0. When taking HD and FHD movie using either rear lens, the camera app will freeze and have to force quit. I track it down to the anti shake mode. So either "Steady+HD" or "Steady+FHD" will crash, using OIS is fine. FHD60 and UHD in either antishake mode are fine though.
Anybody have the same problem or try to reproduce? maybe I have hardware problem because I search and didn't find anything. I'm on T-mobile but i think the camera app should be same across all models...Thx
When does the freezing occur?
After stopping the record or while you are recording? Or when you press the record button?
Sent from my sh!tty LG-H860 that is beyond crap
It froze when I press record. I then has to force quit the camera and when reopen no video is taken. I will see if i can get some logcat going....
Seems like nobody else has this problem? which is puzzling because it seems like a software issue.
Have you tried the hidden menu?
Test your camera there
*#546368#*850#
850 is your model number. If you have a 830 change this to 830

Oh wow thanks for this post. Mine started crashing exactly the same way in the last week. I ran into your post and sure enough, switching to OIS "fixed" the problem.

i had that problem with video recording and freezing long time ago when i tried to scale up video bit rate,when you reset your firmware this issue should have disappear
Hey guys so i just updated the mi 8 lite to pie 9.0. I just noticed that there's a 10 second delay in the video camera. Photo mode works perfectly. I even tried clearing the data and cache and still the same. I downloaded open camera and that works fine. Anyone having this problem?
I have the same problem too

Did you figure it out yet? It's driving me crazy lol
So changing the save location from the SD card to internal seems to fix the problem if anyone is having delays with the video recording. Hope they make a fix for this as this only occurred after the pie update

*******Guys just to let you know that after updating to the latest update (10.3.1) the problem is now solved *******
Ho guys, i'm going Crazy with this issue, please help me....
Idk why, but Yesterday(After have bene using my mate 20 pro since August without any issue) the streaming apps won't show images but only sound. I've tried everyting like clean cache of these apps, unistalling and reinstalling them, i've tried to disable the colour correction(as i've found on internet), no everyting Is update... It seams to me like some protection issue, like if the streaming apps blocks on purpose the video playback for a lack of security(? Idk, but YouTube and now tv works fine).
As you know, the mate 20 pro Is certified wilevine L1 the maximum level of protection.
Please help me, i'm getting really annoyed.
Ps: i've Also checked if some app update have been done in the previous day, and the only one was "Google services for AR" or something similar, but disabling hit haven't solved anything.
Have you tried running the app in battery save mode? i read someone else had this issue and it worked for them. Hope this helps
Do you mean the mode you can change in smartphone settings? If so, yes and nothing changed, i've tried everyting less an hard reset that i want ti avoid as much as possible. It seams to me like prime video, Netflix and infinity turn the screen black becouse they think you are recording the screen, there Is a way tu run an app and kill all other process?
Thank you
Hi i have the Same Problem but only with Netflix. Prime is okay. Only Sound with black Screen.
I have solved the problem. Idk why, but switching from"intelligent mode" in the display resolution panel, in settings, to HD fixed the problem. Try to set HD, open Netflix and see if It works, than change again to full HD or quadHD. At Moment i'm using quad HD settings, and i'm no more facing the black screen problem. I've not tried the intelligent mode again.
Hope It can help you aswell.
Ps: try Also to disable color correction in settings accessibilities. For someone It worked, not in my case.
Thanks, the solution was Like you Said, Switch to FHD+ .now all Work. :fingers-crossed:
Hello the Problem is back. After testing a while i found an other solution. I added the 2 apps which only shows black Screen and Sound (Netflix and Amazon Prime) in the settings of Fluid ng .

I also have the black video problem on YouTube or Prime Video. I think it's related to some overlaying apps on top of the video. When I use a speedcam overlay on top of other windows I noticed that the video goes black. I also often use split windows, so I need to clear the split windows and restarts the video for the orientation to go away. The resolution of the phone does not make a difference.
Edit: Found an app that works, see comments.
Hey, is there any currently working way of disabling audiofocus for centan apps?
I want to listen to music on spotify and play video audio out of chrome or opera at the same time. I would prefer for the sporify audio to duck (reduce the volume) when opera is playing audio, but not stop compleately. If ducking isnt an option, playing with the same volume is fine too.
Ive tried the ADB command thing here on chrome, but it just made chrome not able to play any video. The video would play for .1 second and stop everytime.
Also ive tried samsung sound assistant, but a) there isnt an option to disable audio focus on apps anymore, b) my tab s2 (gts210velte/SM-T819) cant run the app anymore after installed lineage os 16.0 (android 9)
I dont care if its an app i have to buy, but i just need to be able to play multiple audio at the same time. If i cant mess with audiofocus is it possible to make spotify automatically play the music again after the other audio stops? Now i have to lower the drop-down notification bar and continue evrery time and its driving me crazy!
Also, the tablet is rooted via magisk.
Any help is appreciated
Bump
Anybody?
Nnm, if anybody has the same problem: found an app called app ops (root) that allows to disable audio focus.
First touhgt i had to disable it on opera browser, but when i did this opera wasnt able to play anything, then i disabled it from spotify and now its working as intended.
99% sure it works on chrome too.

Thanks! app ops offer exactly what i want and even more!
Wow, i forgot how i did this. Recently got a new phone, started googling and found this thread i forgot i made.
At first it wasnt working, but noticed that if you are using viper4android you have to change settings to "Legacy mode". Im guessing it will work fine if not using viper.
Im trying to achieved the same thing. Successfully gained access to disable audio focus but when i do that it just doesnt allow apple music to play anything. Any specifics i should do?
Hello,
Using App Ops, I disabled "audio focus" on the Spotify app, and was able to simultaneously play YouTube in browser (m.youtube.com via Kiwi).
Thanks for this discovery !
