Hey,
I've got rooted galaxy s5 with OmegaRom installed on it(latest versio) and I have an issue!
Whenever I try to watch a video from the gallery it says cannot run this video.
Now,its a video that I have recorded from the camera app so there was not sppoused to be any problem...
Now I think I figured it out...
After cleaning cache of all related apps which didnt help,I downloaded BS Player.
Now as an app which replaces an other app,I expected the phone to ask me which app to use - gallery one or BS Player...Suprisingly it didnt!
There is any chance i just dont have the ability to run video's on the phone because I dont have the app?
If so,someone can send me a link to download it?
Thanks! :good: :laugh:

If you record a video with the stock camera it's supposed to be watchable in the gallery app. Maybe it's an Omega related bug. Try VLC player, try resetting defaults in the gallery app's info in settings.

is anyone having a video playback problem with HTC video player ???
I have, tried openeing a rather low-res MP4 video, and it wouldn't open it; the screen was black and it only said "loading" or whatever.
I tried 3 or 4 times, and during the last attempt it said something like "fatal error - blah blah - ARM11"
I didn't risk trying openening any videos again
No problems here at all - with mp4 files. Any other format is... disappointing. Except maybe if you install another video player app.
the problem, i am experiencing is the video recorded with the handset can not be played at all. i had to do hard reset couple of times just to have it work again. this happens after i install some applications. i tried uninstalling the apps, but in vain.
really appreciate if anyone can help me out here !!!

If it works after a hard reset, but not after installing some apps, do a hard reset and then try playing a video after each installation. That way you can identify which app is causing the problem.
Sounds like you'll need another hard reset afterwards, but at least you'll know the app that is breaking the video playback, and you can let us all know so that no-one installs it again!
I will bet you its right after you install the youtube app, because it uses similar files (you may notice the video playback uses a UI similar to that in the playback in the YouTube app) Would like to know if this situation can be fixed myself, without having to resort to flashing a rom and losing my warranty

You're spot on dude. I device was playing videos very well until I installed Youtube. Noticed straight away it was that causing the problem. I haven't removed youtube simple because of the fact its a brilliant app! works brilliant with wifi. Such a shame its the only place I can see video footage!
SOME ONE PLEASE FIND A WAY TO FIX IT OTHER THAN UNINSTALLING YOUTUBE!
remove youtube app and still watch youtube on opera
You may find this thread useful in getting opera to work properly when you visit youtube dot com. That way you can get rid of the app and still watch vids from there - you can even cue vids up in a playlist exactly like on a desktop pc.
Is there a video player app in the phone? I searched around but couldn't find one in my apps. But I can still find the videos through Myfiles and then play them. Is it supposed to be like this?
I think there should be some stock player app called video player or something. Thanks.
The stock video player is called Gallery. This had me for a while too, heh.
Well what do you know. I was looking everywhere for it too after deleting MyFiles and low and behold, it's in the one place I looked at and dismissed because I view pictures there -_-
Thanks. You can play videos from gallery, same as using Myfiles or Astro. I do find there is an app "video player" in /system/app/. Maybe, Epic 4G just hides it from the app menu, which is different from other galaxy S phones. Don't know why.

The Epic was gimped slightly... either because of Sprint or limitations when trying to adapt Touchwiz to landscape mode. We can only hope we'll get all the stuff back when we get the Froyo update.
Yeah. I hope so. I hate having a video player that restarts the movie every time I navigate away from it.

The only reason to use the stock video player is if you're playing an MKV file or something crazy. "act1 video player" can play AVI files just fine, and it remembers where you left off for every video you play in it. So if you start 6 movies and dont finish, it will remember your position for each one. Great video player.

I have similar problem the video is divided in 3 parts and in black and white
i solved it by reinstall you tube app
youtube on PA 5.1
I'm having a similar problem, but it is not limited to youtube. I have tired plex too, and it also fails to play a video.
When I play a video youtube I just get "There was a problem while playing. Touch to retry"
In plex the video fails to play telling me to restart my plex media server and to reboot the phone.
I have rebooted the phone and it makes no difference.
Anybody have any ideas on how to fix that? Everything else seems to work properly on this rom so far, and the stock rom is getting more and more laggy which is why I'm trying different roms.
Anybody have any ideas?
**Update**
For some reason a video would start without video at times. When that happens if I change the quality to something lower than 480p, it actually works.
MX player works perfectly regardless of resolution.
Plex is completely broken, it will not work regardless of what I set the video to, it fails.
On a HTC One M8
I am having some trouble with videos after the recent BlackBerry camera update. Everything time I take a video, it records and saves fine but when I try to play the video back, using any different video player it just looks like a green jumbled mess. It does this on the regular gallery, QuickPic and even Instagram. See the screenshot below.

Are you using MX Player to play videos by any chance?
I am not. And I discovered that it also does it on other people's instragram videos and snapchat stories so it must be a playback or codec issues

I have some music videos and I use MX Player to play them. In decoder settings of that app, there was HW+ option which I would enable on every phone that I had, but on Priv I had to select HW instead because videos came out green and distorted.

I'll see what happens when I use it. I hope this stuff will be fixed in an update.
Edit: I'm an idiot and I had AwesomePlayer enabled in developer settings. Using NuPlayer fixed it.
When I record videos with any camera and try to play them back, there is no sound. Anyone else have this happen? I tried multiple camera apps, playback methods, and made sure the volume was up and not on silent.
Thanks

Mine seems to be working fine on video capture resolutions (1080p 30fps and 4k). I replayed the videos back in gallery and MX Player with the ARM7 CODEC.

I'm recording at 1080p 30fps and playing back in gallery to test. No luck. I can record videos in other apps like Facebook Messenger, send them/play them back and they are ok. But any regular camera has this problem -_-

Did you try clearing the app cache and data? If you're hearing the audio in other apps, then it's obviously the app that's the culprit.
Also, I'm not having any issue with the stock camera playback.

I didn't before but I just did. It's still broken. It's across multiple camera apps though, not just the stock one. I'm going to backup and flash FreedomOs and see if it's fixed on that ROM.

Have you looked into this on stock OOS? Could be something broken on custom ROMs.

After flashing FreedomOS, video recording sound is back. Had to be something with the xXx ROM which sucks because I was having a great experience on there.
This happened again on FreedomOS. I believe after reverting the Stereo sound mod for the phone speaker that it's fixed. If anyone has this issue, try to remove that mod and see if it helps. I thought it might have been Viper but it doesn't seem like it.
If you are rooted and have Magisk installed, flash the "Android Mic Fix" module, it worked for me
