Just noticed today that when I play back videos I recorded on the HD that the "expand" button to make the video fullscreen has no effect. Then immediately went into the youtube app to test it there and same thing. Again cannot change the orientation. Seems to stuck the way it is.
Can anyone suggest anything?! Thank you for any help!

Hi for some reason video playback is choppy while using Netflix.
When I use hbo go it is smooth.
I think it's because hbo go buffers for about 15 seconds and Netflix doesn't.
Is there a way to force the Netflix app to buffer or select a lower resolution ?
Hi everyone,
On any phone I have had to date, videos from the browser that I wanted to watch in full screen mode were played through a video player app. On the essential phone, they seem to be played within the browser still (tried chrome, Firefox, and others). The video quality is pretty poor this way and I was wondering if there was a no frills video player that could be configured Las the default app for watching full screen streaming videos from the browser, and how that would be configured.
I hope this makes sense. I was surprised to see no threads on this topic but I suppose the grainy video doesn't bother other people, or a solution has been found an I'm not using the right terminology.
Any guidance would be appreciated
Most any video player you had on those other phones would work with this one. I've not seen any issues with video playback but... "My legs are grey. My ears are gnarled. My eyes are old and bent."
I've downloaded several video player apps (mx player, vlc, sbs player, etc), but none of them will play the video in the browser unless I download it. On my Samsung s8, if I choose full screen on a video in chrome it will ask what video player I want to use, and I select Samsung video player to be the default. This doesn't happen on the essential phone.
When I download it, the quality is as poor as it is in the browser full screen mode. My guess on that is the resolution for the essential phone is being reported in metadat or something to chrome so it is downloading the video in the only encoding it can find that would support that dimension. That's a total guess, but it's the only thing I can think of that's very unique about the ph-1. Is there a way to disable the full screen mode or tell the browser that my display has different, more standard dimensions?
Why can not I play videos that I recorded at 60 fps on my galaxy s5?
the videos are locked in a single frame, but the audio works, the video just does not move
The video player you're using probably cannot support that kind of decoding. Try MX Player, as it has a powerful HW and SW decoder for most video.
