Hi, I tried to search but couldn't find anything about this problem.
The other day I was trying to record video at a kid's birthday party, and the video was somewhat long, around 6-7 minutes. Without any warning, the video stopped recording and went straight to the home screen. I tried to play the video file, but it shows up as a gray box on the phone and doesn't play on either my phone or my computer. I tried various video players.
This happened to me again, I went up to wine country and was taking a video from my car mount of the scenery as I drove down the windy roads. I stopped one video at around 5-6 minutes, the second one I didn't stop it that soon and the phone went to home screen again. Video was unplayable, same as last time.
I tried to replicate the issue recording videos, tried to push the home screen or any other buttons to replicate the issue - all times the video saved if you stopped the recording one way or another. I even tried to send myself an email to see if notifications could stop the video, didn't do anything. I recorded till around 7 minutes, and the phone went to home screen around 6:52. Same result as before.
All the files that were unplayable weren't unusually large, around 300-355 megs I believe. I'm running the stock 8gb card, and I'm rooted with baked snack 9.6. Free space on card was around 3-4 gigs each time, free space on phone roughly 80 mb. I'm using mpeg-4, all other videos I record are fine.
So is there anyways to fix this problem? It's kind of hard to always stop the phone at the right time to avoid this, and I'm wondering what's causing it in the first place. Could it be that the phone's ram is reaching capacity?
I have a weird problem maybe someone could help me? I use my phone everynite as i work overnites and i stream music from my google music player 5 nites a week. But heres the weird problem? When i had my vibrant it would play music endlessly for hours with no buffering, no dead space between songs. Now that i have this phone it doesnt play it continously anymore, it will buffer between songs for like anywhere from a min up to 5 min. I know its not the building because my vibrant played fine in it???
Do i need to change my network mode? is there anything i can do to fix it? Is anyone else having this problem??? ty for ur help guys!!!
its not a major problem, just a small annoyance hoping i can fix!
From my experience I think it has to do with the library not being synchronize to the phone yet.
It played fine on your Vibrant because it was synced to it, now that you got a new phone it needs to sync in it's entirely in order to play continuously.
On my phone (not a SGS2, yet) it does the same thing, but I'm constantly switching roms so it never gets to completely synchronize.
I would say just give it some time and it will eventually all sync.
It helps if you got it connected to wifi. Less buffering.
Not sure if changing any settings can help other than going to the app and selecting the option to hide unavailable music.
lets hope ur right because its annoying!!
Hey guys,
Quick question on the stock video player. I have found that every once in a while, while playing a video in full-screen, that the video freezes while the audio keeps playing. Whenever this happens, the screen and buttons are both locked up, and the only way to get control of my phone back is to do a hard reset (hold down power for a few seconds). This has only happened to me when I'm in full-screen mode. A cursory search through the forums brings up similar issues on other devices (not all Samsung devices), with no answers to the questions.
I've checked to see if the videos themselves were corrupted, but it has never frozen in the same place twice (and now that I think about it, it has never frozen in the same video twice). Most of the videos I'm watching were downloaded from youtube using Tubemate v1.05.45.
I am currently running Clark's FreeGS3 v3.0.0 with stock kernal, but this same error has occurred with other Roms, and with other kernals (one being The People's Rom GS3.08).
If anyone has any information on what this might be, please let me know!
UPDATE:
The same screen-freezing just happened again, but this time when the video was not in full-screen. Just a heads up for any and all trouble-shooters that this is most-likely not limited to full-screen video playback.
So I made a cool discovery. If you want the stock youtube app to play with screen off, answering a phone call with the popup panel while youtube is playing, then letting the screen turn off by auto sensor (not by manual turn off but by putting the phone to your face), then letting the other party end the call, will resume youtube with the sound playing in the background with screen off when the call ends. screen off youtube is something long coveted by youtubers, but will now get your 3rd party app pulled from the market. so to find this trick to do it on the stock youtube app was pretty funny imo. AUCU2COC6 is the firmware version I'm running. not rooted, stock everything, so SHOULD work for you.
there's possibly better ways to trigger it without calling yourself from a second phone lol, but yeah if you ever wanted to listen to youtube without figuring out a way to pocket your phone without the screen messing up, now ya know.
Or download ogtube. Version 0.9 seems the best.
Hi! Since the last update, I've noticed that the media content that is currently playing stops when an event arrives, and then does not restart. I have to press the play button again to start. I suspect that the battery time optimization in the update description has something to do with it. Tips? (Galaxy Watch LTE)

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
reset the watch
Hi - I think I'm having the same issue. When I use Spotify and Map My Run at the same time (half the reason I purchased the watch), Spotify pauses every time Map My Run provides a media update, and then doesn't start playing music again when the audio update is finished. Very frustrating.
I've searched online for a fix but can't even see this problem reported eslewhere - just me?
