Firstly, im running 318
I have a couple videos I downloaded on here that say this file is audio only on the side when I play them, but they play the video fine.
Also, if I take a 720p video, the first time I play it, I get the same message and again, it plays the video fine. If I play that same video again, the message is not there.

Correction, the message is still there replaying recorded video. Any suggestions?

Are you playing it back on the phone? What video player?
Sent from my Dell Streak
Yeah playing them on the phone. And whatever the default player is, that's what's playing them.

Hmm sorry mine seem to be playing okay on my stock froyo. Wish I could help.

you have stage fright enabled in build.prop,
either play videos with"drmplayer" or disable stage fright
Or replace system/lib/libomxvdec.so with this one (but you need to change the file permission to the same as the other files in /lib if you do so)

I just redid my phone over today and did everything fresh, no backups, and also did not apply the 2.2 performance fix and it seems to not be giving the error. If it shows up, I will dig more into your suggestions.
Oh I just remembered something. This might be related. I froze dell video stage in titanium backup. Maybe now its using a different player, but I'm not real sure what to think. It looks the same.

Dell video stage isn't a player for videos on your device. It's for renting videos and stuff. When you play a video you recorded it uses the built in android player unless you install a different video player.

stagefright isn't the same as dell video stage...
stagefright is the 2.2 (froyo) media framework that "supports local file playback and HTTP progressive streaming"..
google switched from opencore media framework in 2.1 to stagefright media framework in 2.2, but seems some people are having problems with it that apparently gets solved by disabling stagefright in the build.pop....

Has anyone had any luck with using the Digital copies that are now coming out on DVD/Blu-ray combo packs, on their dell streaks?
I have tried using the WMA version on one, but my Streak will not play the WMA file. I haven't tried downloading an iPhone version, simply because I didn't want to waste another digital copy doing this.
Anyone doing this successfully? Please post how you are doing it. I'm sure many besides myself will be grateful.
Have a great day & happy new year!
P.S. I'm using DJ_Steve's 1.5.2 latest build, just installed it yesterday and it rocks!.
I'm not sure if this helps but when I wanted to play divx movies I couldn't. I downloaded an apply called rock player. It works like a charm for any movie I rip or drag off the PC
Sent from my Dell Streak using Tapatalk
Vplayer is a good app to watch dvdrip movies also. Subs are supported also. I also have rockplayer and I think both are equally good.

Is there a way to get the streak to play mkv xvid or divx? Encoding everything with handbrake just seems like a whole extra step, it would be awesome to just play them directly.
1.6.1
Rockplayer lite (+mvideoplayer if you want to be able to select subtitles)
That might be an idea. Watching my first video since flashing 1.6.1 and I have a message on the screen while the video plays. It says the file is audio only. Very annoying. File is mp 4 converted from xvid using handbrake with dell streak preset I saw somewhere, lifehacker or streak smart or someplace. Does anyone know how to make the message go away?

Well rockplayer lite works fine for mp4 it seems, tomorrow I will throw other video file types at it and see if it can hang.

I have a stock EB13 that has been rooted via oneclickroot cwm 2.5.5 - no roms or kernels except stock, the only that I have done is install the camera/video lag fix
Question, I have and identical setup (same apps, launcher, etc) of my Epic on my Samsung Moment that I keep as a spare. I don't know when it happened, possibly after my froyo upgrade, but I have an app called Movie, and when I open it, it says Flixster.
My Moment with eclair 2.1 and "when" my Epic was on elcair 2.1, they both could play the movie trailers from that app, but now that my Epic has froyo 2.2.1, it cannot play any movie trailers from that app- it simply says it cannot play video, now I was able to have my Epic play one movie trailer right after I flashed the EB13 camera/video lag fix. I thought that was the problem so I flashed it again, but it didn't work. So it's got to be a software glitch, but from what app? Was it the camera/video lag patch. I could always go back I guess to stock kernal with the bad code in it and see. I hope it is not froyo that is the cause.
Can anybody with an Epic with froyo 2.2.1 try and play a movie trailer if they have that app and let me know if it works? - fyi, it is a very nice app if you do not have it.
All other media functions, for that matter everything else works perfect on my Epic.
Thanks!
i have the same exact problem and just deleted my post on this after i saw yours....
i have no idea what to do...i used this app quite a bit as well....
funny how nobody on the Market is complaining about this not working with Froyo....maybe there is an apk that the Syndicate rom excludes, that Flixster is looking for?
not sure
On eb13, have not flashed a replacement kernel for the camera fix. Just watched 2 trailers no problem.
try clearing app data?

I actually did the camera patch fix on my stock kernel, I wonder if that is the cause of it although I saw the code of the patch and can't see how it would have affected it.
Anyways, I can play any movie or trailer on my browser and apps that are like Flixster.
Clearing what app data? - if you mean Flixster itself, that I haven't tried, but I have uninstalled and reinstalled it a few times with the same no play results - you would think uninstalling would in a way erase the app data?
I have been able to make it play a few times out of like 10 tries - but that is not acceptable to me, especially since my phone works perfect in every other way - oh well, at least I have replacement type apps that do the same function. Its just I was so use to Flixster - I used it all the time
Try going to settings -applications- manage apps - Movies - clear data. Then try to view a trailer again.

same problem was working after updated rom but i think after adobe flash update now don't work. imdb same thing don't play trailers
I put up a post about this a while back, but the thread kinda died. I tried out Cyanogenmod 7 recently and as we all know...they only have nightly versions. Nothing stable. When I tried it I liked everything EXCEPT the fact that I couldn't view my old videos. I'm not just talking about old videos taken with my blur camera. I'm talking about REALLY old videos that I took over the years with older phones. Anyway, I wanted to know if there's a fix for this. Please let me know bc I REALLY like the other aspects of CM 7. Thanks!

Haha double pasted this link lol... this is a link to vlc media player alpha, with this installed on my DX I can play all old blur videos and multiple different file types that CM7 wouldn't play, not sure but I bet it'll play your old .3gp files as well. Make sure to follow the instructions on their site to determine if your processor is neon or not, my DX and SGT are both neon, but yours may be different...

Well, I just tried it out on my stock rom before trying cyanogenmod again and vlc player wouldn't play sound on my REALLY old videos. The newer stuff would play though. Ugh....I still need a better solution to this. :-/
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
You might have to convert your really old 3gp's to a different format... will the stock rom play them with any player?
Sent from my SGT running CM7
There are many other third party players you can try. Rockplayer and mxplayer come to mind. Worth a shot?
Sent from my DROIDX using xda premium
@hoot- yes, the stock player still plays my super old videos.
@runn- I tried mxplayer last time I had CM 7 on my phone and it didn't work. I don't remember if I tried rockplayeror not tho. Maybe it's worth a shot. If I convert my old files what should I convert them to anyway?
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
I would convert files to something general like maybe avi or mpg... something that any player will play... if you don't have access to a computer, I think there are apps on the market that allow you to convert files... look around a bit

ive recently realised that when i play videos on my nexus 4 majority of the video is pixelated. which makes any movie or anyting completely useless to watch.
at first i thought maybe its the video file. so I tried it on my Xperia T, but it was fine no pixelation whatsoever. I tried it on my pc, no pixelation. I tried it on my ps3 and ps vita again no pixelation. Also BTW its not just a specific video file, anything i try to watch on the nexus 4 goes pixelated through majority of the video.
Then I thought that maybe its the media player that im using on the phone. it wasn't. i tried MX player, vlc for andriod, ES player and even the default video player. same thing on all of them; it pixelates in exactly the same places.
something that i also noticed is that on MX player when i play the video it doesn't play using the HW decoder only HW+ and SW, which is even more mind boggling because on my Xperia T it plays fine on HW.
can someone please help me with this. i would like to avoid factory resetting the phone if possible but if all else fails i may have to do it.
any help is appreciated.
THANKS
