Full Screen video player on Nexus 7 in tablet mode. - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When i use the MX Player on my nexus 7 and watch a video the bar at the bottom disapears and i get use of a full screen when watching films.
Now when i change the DPI settings on my Nexus 7 (to 160) and turn it into tablet mode and then watch a video the bar does not disapear, now is this because MX Player has not updated there software to work on Jelly bean on tablets? will this everwork like it does when the DPI isnt changed? Is there a player that works in full screen mode in tablet mode.
Any advise will be good as the Nexus 7 not in tablet mode is crap.

I don't have an answer unfortunately, as I'm looking for one too, but I'd just like to add that I'm having the same issue with the YouTube app. So it's not just MX Player.

It has to be that you are changing the DPI. I am running Pure AOKP Build 2 with baked in tablet UI. Using MX player and am not experiencing the bar not disappearing. Screen shot is from Hunger Games using MX with Stickmount.

Video Playback Issues

Videos played by my nexus have an odd choppy feel. Every five seconds or so, the player pauses for a very noticeable moment, then continues. Is anyone else experiencing this?

No problems regarding smoothness.
The only problem I have is that nothing seems to have audio (using mxPlayer)

Now I seem to have problems with games. Is this a hardware issue or OS related?

No. My nexus runs very well. Are you on 4.1.1

Yes.
Is it a background app causing it? I read about a few phones having this issue in the past.

I'm on 4.1.1, not rooted and I've noticed the same problem. When playing a video or certain games every 5 seconds or so there is a slight pause. I've tried different video players and still the same issue.

Having the same issues but it seems to happen more with games especially tegra 3 games like a riptide. the funny thing is is I swear I remember playing riptide and It had no lag. I can't remember whether it was prior to the 4.11 update.
Same here! I tried watching the Transformer movie we got for free and it kept freezing up! This is irritating, I'm going to try a factory reset. I'm exchanging this thing any way cause the headphone jack is defective.
From my long awaited and totally worth it EVO LTE!
Same issue here after upgrading to 4.1.1. Anyone here having this issue on a custom ROM? If not then I'm flashing a ROM ASAP.

Try other video players (MX Player, BSPlayer)
Was this apparent before 4.1.1? I just got my 7 yesterday and updated right away and do notice the stutter w/ my high profile 720p vids. On my Prime stuttering was fixed with over clocking and running an interactive governer.
Edit: this is for 720p high profile movies stored on the device, happening w/ dice player and MX player. Don't use stock since it doesn't support ac3 audio.
stock n7 with latest ota updates, unlocked and rooted. No problem playing any game and video, either stream from play store (transformer movie) or stream my my home network.

It doesn't matter if it's on the device or not, it happens when I stream the transformer movie and/or any YouTube video. I'm about to return this back to Google if I don't find a solution soon. Going to try a data factory reset and see if that helps.

Yeah looks like its happening for me on YouTube as well.
I just put a video on my device from my PC and it played fine. But if I stream anything it plays like crap
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Did some more testing. Tried the stock player and no stutter but no sound due to no ac3 support. I have another 7 coming in on Monday and will test that one leaving it as is (before 4.1.1 update)
I just got off the phone with Google and they said it's probably a issue with my router streaming media on the device. I'm going to test another WiFi connection sometime soon and see if the issue persist or not.

I'm having problems with this, I can't watch a single video on this device without the lag. I've tried the youtube app, Netflix, dice player and a few other video apps and everyone of those lag.

[Q] Video playback (MX Plyer) soft keys and quality

Hi,
I have a galaxy nexus and I use es file and MX player to stream stuff. On the phone the soft buttons disappear and HD mkv files play really smooth.
The nexus 7 though leaves the soft keys as three small dots and the play back isn't anywhere near as smooth.
Is this simply a case of waiting for MX played to update?
Anyone else even notice?
Cheers
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Yeah. Though I think it is a case of ICS versus JB. On my ICS ROM's, the buttons used to disappear, but on JB, I get the three dots as you described.
Same issue with MX Player on Nexus 7, I assume an update will come until then I have started using V player as it does remove the soft buttons and goes full screen.
Only played 720p mkvs with it but they were fine.
Snowdan.

Feel free to leave him feedback. Or you can use gmd hide bar as a temporary solution like I suggested on my thread.

Web Video Player 0o ?

Hi,
Is there anyway to fix or improve de Web video player? Because the stock one really suck, once I get in full screen, all the button (Play/Pause/Go Forward or Backward) stops to work so yeah it is pretty much annoying.
Edit: I'm talking about video player in Chrome Browser
If you want some website to test out, http://youtube.com (Please don't tell me use youtube app as there is no app for other websites)

The standard Nexus 7 is not supplied with Flash. Yeah, I know Google decided not to include it because it is yesterday's technology! However it can easily be sideloaded. Just google it. Make sure you install. Version 11.1.115.11. There are problems with some of the other versions floating around.
Have you tried another player like "dice player" or "mx player"?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Thanks,
1. I wasn't talking about flash at all but the Web Video Player itself
If I download these apps, will it replace thw video player on Chrome?

You'll have your choice between the player you install (mx is a good one too) and stock.They won't "replace" stock though, it'll still be an option.

4.2.1 PA music players crashing

Hi,
Got the latest pa running on my nexus 7 bit whenever I try any music players from the market they all crash immediately after starting. I have tried player pro, n7 music player, poweramp and many others. Winamp seems to be the only one that works as well as Google music app. They suck though. Anyone experiencing the same?
Oh and also running latest Franco kernel on a 32gb UK nexus 7.
