I've noticed that when using YouTube and playing something through a PLAYLIST and tilting the phone towards the right that the volume will cut out until the screen has rotated. The volume will also cut out when tilting the screen from the right position to the straight up position.
After more testing I have found that this issue exists when playing any video from any app or gallery that the video is being played from.
This does not happen when tilting the phone to the left.
I have the 6P and I've noticed it on all 6Ps I've come across.
In order to get fixes for things like this we need people to confirm the issue.
just found your post on here when i looked for youtube app issue with 6p. I tried yours and can confirm that audio was cut off when rotate to the right instead of left. i do have another issue atm that everytime when try to watch vids from youtube in landscape from my playlist, went back to playlist and it already scrolled back to the top and not at current position like my other phones. However if in portrait mode it is fine to stay where i watch when go back to the list. Is there anyone has this issue or just me? thanks

Same issue here with playlists not holding its position. Also, sometimes while scrolling in playlist the app crashes.
Does this happen outside of the YouTube app. For instance take a video on your phone and test it like you do with YouTube. If it doesn't cut out then at least it's narrowed down to YouTube.

This is an issue that exists in the entire phone and not just youtube. You can play a recorded video from your gallery and try rotating your phone and the same issue will appear.
Has nobody else noticed this?........I am shocked!!!
Come on guys chime in
The audio does cut out for a bit, but it actually makes sense! When holding the phone in portrait mode or rotated left, the top speaker is the left channel and the bottom speaker is the right channel.
Flip the phone to the right, and the speaker positions are reversed, so the phone has to reverse which channel each speaker corresponds to. Being that it has to switch the audio, there probably won't be a fix for it.
Note this happens with any audio source.

Thanx in advance for you time.
I just got my Imagio last weekend. I didn't flash it to any roms or anything yet, because I kind of like it like it is right now. The only thing is, I downloaded a movie in mp4 format and put it on my phone and here's what happens:
I play the movie. (It plays nicely.)
Something happens that I have to pause the movie. (Be it a call or knock at the door or what ever)
I come back to my phone and play the movie from where it left off.
But now, every 5 seconds almost exactly the navigation (Play, pause, stop, forward, etc) bar comes up as if I touched the screen.
It goes away and comes up again in 5 more seconds.
It does this through out the rest of the movie.
Any idea on how to stop this? (or maybe suggest a player I can download?)
I really didn't want to switch roms yet.
Thanks in advance to all da uba leet intel of the XDA Developers
try loading the video from file explorer and see if it does the same problem. that was my fix.
Results
Yes I tried it that way first then the other way (through the album tab) and still the same result.
It only does it if I ever pause it once. Then it (the navigation bar) comes up over and over all throughout the movie. =\
Thanx everyone for your time and answers. XD
Happens to me too. Hope someone comes up with a solution.
Same problem here. But when playing back video from the camera.. no problem.
what video framerate are your videos at. When my videos were at 25, this problem would happen.
when I set them to 15, it would be fine.
I am going to try a video at 24 and see if it still happens, will let you all know
This issue is just downright annoying. Has anyone come up with a solution as of yet?
I noticed it only happens with H-264 movies not with regular mp4 movies bitrate and framerate didnt really matter
any fix yet
any help
maybe a better wvga htc fullscreen player cab
any help updated roms have similar issues
I've searched and haven't seen a thread about this yet, so sorry if it's a double post.
Yesterday I started playing some music on my HD2, and all went good. The volume change was nice, with that bar appearing instead of the grey screen. However when I changed to a different artist, and went to increase the volume, the music paused for a second, then continued at the higher volume. The volume bar did not appear.
I went back to the original artist to see if maybe some partially corrupt MP3s were causing the problem but no, it happens no matter what now. If I change tab and play with the volume I get the grey screen and it all goes smoothly. I've tried with audio booster on & off. And I've even restarted the phone in case it was just stress getting to it - no luck.
Anyone had this problem? How did you fix it?
I have this problem too, drives me crazy! More so since the sound quality is superb! I noticed that sometimes this switch to "volume problem" follows answering the phone with or without BT ear piece, but I cannot be entirely sure. Does anybody have any solution?
I have this problem too! The same thing happens in the streaming video app as well. Also I find that it's very hit and miss when the green volume bar appears (the horizontal one) as opposed to the grey one (vertical) Anyone else find this?
I had this problem the first day with my Leo, but it suddenly disappeared. Never seen the problem since...
Just to keep you all posted - the problem went away by itself
Hoping a fix is found to stop it recurring though.
Im having this problem too... also when using windows media player (sometimes it leads to phone crash)
I've seen similar issues addressed elsewhere but with no explicit solution:
When I play music on any player (i've tried 3 of them so far) the playback stutters and stops only to resume when the screen's turned on again. Similar posts said the issue happened at the end of the song but not in my case. The playback sometimes restarts with long gaps an stutters.
Has anyone had this issue? Found a fix or a workaround?
Ps: Stock hc 3.2.1.
player
i had this issue too with google play music and some other players
i now use n7player and it works fine for me
its so light beautifull and usefull
u can use handsfree buttons with it and lock screen controls
its available on play store
thanks, in the meantime I had also found out that double twist did the trick as well, unfortunately it didn't work with zimly which is by far my favorite player on a tablet. Double twist is nice on a phone but ugly when stretched to fit a tablet's screen and n7 is really nice too but you have to pay to get features you can get for free elsewhere and it's missing a landscape orientation which is the one I most commonly use on my tab.
When the One first came out, I bought it and ended up returning the phone immediately because the phone's speakers would crackle when watching videos on YouTube. After trying out the S4 for a few days, I decided to bring it back and "settle (don't think that anymore)" for the HTC One. Once I got the phone, I transferred all my music onto it, and when played back, there was no crackling or popping. When I opened up the YouTube app, I noticed 8 seconds into any video the speaker would crack, and then it would happen continuously throughout videos. I found this odd, since the phone had no issues playing back MP3 files. So, I launched the stock browser, went to m.youtube.com and watched the same video. Oddly enough, when you access YouTube videos through the browser, there isn't any crackling or popping. The audio is clear, crisp, and clean. Immediately, I switched back to the YouTube app, watched the same videos, and heard the crackling. So, here's a quick tip for anyone using this phone: bookmark m.youtube.com (if you have subscriptions you can bookmark the subscription feed so it takes you there directly), and stop using the YouTube app. I found the mobile browser version of the site has clean, clear, crackle-free audio, and this issue was originally driving me nuts.
Just thought I'd share.
Cheers.:good:
I don't have the phone but from what I've heard its because of having Beats audio active, try disabling it when you listen to YouTube, if you haven't already

The problem is so there even with beats turned off
Never actually encountered the crackling sound on the youtube app. But who knows I always update my youtube app to latest version.

Actually I found the problem does go away with Beats Off.
But Beats is available to YouTube and the Browser but like OP said only does it on YouTube.
It definitely sounds better with Beats On and I usually don't care for that stuff but it really smooth's things out and adds needed bass to the tiny speakers so that it's actually pleasant to listen to.
try turning on /off gpu rendering.
I noticed the same thing when using Youtube app. First I thought that it's from the wireless connection, but reading this I understood the situation.
yeah same problem here... anyone actually also notices this crackle noise during voice calls? Its about the same but not as loud and happens not very often and randomly...?
Anyways I can still return my phone for a new one but it seems like all ones have this issue? since it only happens in the app and only during loading I guess its a software issue?
danv28: I just noticed the same thing. It's definitely a software issue that will hopefully be sorted shortly.

The One sounds like crap through the speakers with beats off. I haven't experienced this problem. 1.29.708.4.
Mine had this issue up until I upgraded the firmware then it went away when I re flashed the ROM.

Still better for rock/alternative, instrumentals and techno with Beats off

Well, there's a reason for that. See video:

When beats is turned off, the equalizer doesn't go back to neutral levels, it actually lowers the bass and adds treble to make it sound way worse than it would at neutral levels.
That's how they get you...

Thanks OP, I thought my phone speakers were crapping out on me
I also noticed some games, like flick football (forgot it's real name), would cause distortion with the volume at max levels.
Has anyone else had an issue with their S7 edge with playing youtube videos? If I play a video in youtube in portrait mode all is fine but if I rotate to landscape all heck breaks out...
I get green pixelated blocks and and loud whine then it will have to reboot or reboot on its own. I've even factory reset and tried again... same issue. I am now sending it back for a new one. I made a poorly made video of it but can post as I am a new poster...

I haven't had that kind of issue. You did right by sending it in...my YouTube sometimes glitches when i put 2k quality. But usually going back in the video fixes it. So it's a BUG I don't know if it's googles side or samsung side
"when askin' for help, appeal to people's self interest, like looking out for you it's good business "
happened to me while watching youtube video on chrome... had to restart the phone
My YouTube video freezes and I can hear the sound playing still if anybody knows how to fix that I would appreciate it.
Me too.
Mine freezes also, had this same exact problem with my v10. Must be android or something to do with snapdragon

Same here. I can drag the progress bar a little bit to recover the video, but it will freeze again.
