I used to have a Galaxy s4. All videos on my SD card played flawlessly and I could fast-forward/rewind with no issues. I've put the SD card into my new Axon 7 and the videos run very slow. Almost in slow motion. Fast-forwarding takes a while to process. This is frustrating.
I've tried opening with the default Photos app, Video app, and also installed Piktures. Same result with all 3.
Is there a fix for this?

Heya. I've recently copied a lot of 720p .mkv files on my phone to watch while commuting.
It worked flawlessly with the first file I copied. I was able to pause and play it without any harm done.
When I finished watching the video, I deleted it off my microsd and earlier today I copied two more (at the same time) to my phone.
I found that whenever I paused the video, the sound and video became out of sync when I started playing again. There was a 3-4 second delay between what happened on the screen until the sound came. It's very annoying.
Has anyone else had similar problems? I'm using a Sandisk Mobile Ultra (16gb) card, it's class 2 but considering video playback is flawless if I don't pause it, I don't think the class will matter? My transfer rate with the card is about 7mb/s.
I also noticed that when I paused videos there was a split second delay between when the video paused and when the audio was paused. Maybe this contributes to the syncing problems when I play again?
Did this only happen with the last video you copied? Have you tried it with the one you didn't have trouble watching intially? I haven't found any such problems, but perhaps a reboot of the phone might fix it for you unless the problem is with the file itself.
This has happened to both the second and third file to be copied onto the memory card. And yes, I tried to reboot the phone. I also killed all the running apps with advanced task killer.
Well it could be that the phone doesn't like the codec of the files? Try RockPlayer and see if that gives you the same problem. Also try the original file that you didn't have a problem with perhaps?
Hi,
I was having some problems last week with an unresponsive UI and some people recommended rooting my phone and using a different ROM to solve the problem, others just said to factory reset my phone and re-format the SD card.
Well, I factory reset my phone and re-formatted the SD card and this has pretty much solved the slow UI problems (for now) and I thought that it also might fix another problem that I was having: unwatchable low camcorder FPS.
It doesn't matter what resolution I am recording in but the FPS of video is usually around 8 or 9 (according to my computer when I transfer the video file) and if you watch it there are like 2-3 second "hiccups" during the clip where the video is just frozen but the audio continues normally (this is during playback on the phone and on my PC).
I thought maybe I had a bad SD card and the re-format would fix it but it didn't. According to my SD card testing program it has a write speed of 5 MB/s which seems like it should be adequate.
Is there something I can do to fix this? Do I just have a bum phone and need to call and get a warranty replacement?
Any help would be MUCH appreciated...
My wife has a UK stock unbranded S, updated to GB via Kies. Things have generally been ok for the couple of months she's had the phone, but I think there's a pattern forming of wibbles after she's record a video.
On Froyo, shortly after recording a video the phone rebooted leaving both internal and external SD cards corrupted with stuff in lost.dir. Videos and most photos gone.
On GB, shortly after recorded videos the phone stuck with black screen (wouldn't wake up). Had to pull battery to reboot. Videos gone (but nothing in lost.dir this time).
I initially though it might be down to the external SD card, but the last occurence was using the internal for storage.
There were probobaly other similar glitches she didn't bother to 'report'. All seem to be shortly after/during taking videos. Photos seem to be ok though.
Does this sound like a hardware fault? I can't see anything similar in the forums so I'm assuming so?

I have read numerous accounts of people being disappointed with the video capability of this phone. I have experienced numerous times that while taking a video the video will temp. freeze. After some trouble shooting with different kernels, ROMS, camera apps, and everything else i have found the reason for this freezing. It seems that if you use sd card for storage by selecting choose sd card storage within the camera app the video will always have tendencies to freeze do to the write speed limitation of the sd card. I have a 32gb class 4 and the write speed is not enough for the high quality video to write without problems. If you are fortunate enough to have a class 10 this may not happen. I have also found that selecting internal memory when using ROMS such as CM7-CM9 although CM9 does not have a working video camera yet, the problem is not present. Just wanted to share for those who bash the Atrix but won't go to another phone and stop *****ing.
Hey Guys,
I just got this phone and instantly updated to 6.0, then performed a factory reset and cleared the cache. I was testing things out and it looks like all videos, whether played through Youtube or the built in Video App, stutter for me a half second every 10 seconds or so.
*Update. Turns out formatting my SDCard as internal storage contributed to this, as the phone tells me the card is slow even though it's a brand new Class 10 UHS card. I formatted it as portable storage and the lag is gone on the phone. Now it just lags when on Screen Mirroring, right next to my 2 year old Note 3 which doesn't lag at all using the same features.
Any thoughts? Thanks,
Nila
