I have played my recorded videos on my sony tv using allshare. But after watching the videos, I can not see the video file on my tv any more. If I record a new video, I can see the video file on my tv.
Anyone know how to "reset" so I can see the video file again on my tv?

I would like to know if it is possible to stream an avi video file from EVO to HDTV.
I have an HDMI chord, and it works fine when I play .3gp videos and stream it from EVO to HDTV. I downloaded an application called "Rock Player" which plays avi files on EVO but when I try to stream it from EVO to HDTV, it doesn't play at all.
I could always convert the AVI files to 3gp but it will lose quality. And I don't want that.
Perhaps someone else can correct me, but I believe HDMI out only works with video recorded on the phone. I thought I read this somewhere, but I could be completely making it up. I do know that some devs have been working on full HDMI out support, including for the UI (like and homescreen and such).

I have an HDMI cable so I can try it out but, as far as I know, only videos that play through the stock player will play through HDMI. Here's a guide to convert using Handbrake, makes decent videos.

Hello, just have a doubt here that's kind of bugging me and haven't been able to figure it out.
I bought an allshare cast dongle and discovered the painful process that it is to get it to work with a custom rom.
After a long process and different methods I finaly got it to work and I am quite happy with the device, however, I have a bunch of mkv's with subtitles and whenever I play the file through mx video player, the video looks and sounds fine on the tv but the subtitles show up in the phone.
Other than hardcoding those subs into the file before playing it, I can't come up with a solution.
I also tried rockplayer but that doesn't even play the subs at all.
Do you guys have any video player recomendations that will play both the mkv and the embeded subs in the tv through the dongle?
Thanks in advance.
try enabling hardware decoding for subtitles, it's in the MX player settings.
I used to use Apple TV to play youtube and 1080p content looks great. But when I tried youtube on Fire TV, it is at most SD, not 720p, not 1080p and it looks blurred! I assume Amazon crippled it (Same is true to XBOX 360 and one).
Is there anyway to let Fire TV to play youtube 1080p? Or I still have to use Apple TV for youtube.

I just passed my Fire TV internet connection through Wireshark, a packet analyzer, and played several videos through the YouTube app that had 1080p as an option on the website. The "itag" parameter (which determines the video resolution) of the HTTP requests to YouTube was always either 136 or 137. It flip flopped between these two values randomly. According to this document, 136 refers to 1280 x 720 MP4, and 137 refers to 1920 x 1080 MP4. I verified the video resolution matched the itag value by pasting the requested video URL into a browser and downloading the returned video segment.
That leads me to believe that the video quality is variable and selected based on your connection characteristics. So if you're seeing poor quality video, then either your ISP is throttling you, or YouTube has decided your connection is insufficient for 720p or 1080p.
You can test your connect to YouTube here: https://www.google.com/get/videoqualityreport/

I tried both Apple TV and Fire TV, with the same youtube account with the same video program saved in playlist. I can easily tell with ATV the video quality is 1080p (I can tell the difference on ATV with 1080p/720p/480p). But on Fire TV or XBOX, it is always lowest quality (maybe 480p). So I am pretty sure it is not ISP issue. I am using cable and I can get 30Mbps.
A good thing that works without root:Youtube HD Mod

I even once had this working perfectly on my Sony NSZ-GS7!
It works without needing anything else,just sideload using any preferred method and you get access to 1080P!
Just adjust the extra settings to gain access to the 1080P resolution.

Define "works" when you cannot log in to use your subscriptions. This whole Youtube /Amazon BS is irritating: somehow I can't even install the "blue" Youtube app...FireTube works fine...go figure.
Almost like they're hell-bent to drive us crazy.
I only used the YouTube HD Mod without subscriptions.
UC Web Browser works amazingly with the desktop YouTube videos.
I watched all five of somecallmejonny's Sonic hack showcase videos with almost zero issues. (YouTube error once)
SHEGA...Thomas was everywhere.

Tried playing 4K video on my G4 and it could not handle it... only sound kept coming... *.mkv format is what I tried.
INstalled MX Player with Customer DTS codec support.. tried all..nothing helped!!!!
Please provide some help and I downloaded videos from Youtube 4K Resolution ones...
So it sounds like you downloaded a video but you don't have the codecs.
Is this happening with all videos?
I would imagine that you are able to play them just fine on youtube?
I hate to break it to you, but you won't get quicker/better responses based on how much larger you make your text.
Yes 4k does not play and but 2k(1440p) plays fine in ma youtube... But once downloaded cannot play 1440p videos using any player.. tested mx, dice, bs and stock player too
I have found the issue in playing the 4k and 2K videos I downloaded from Youtube.
I downloaded MKV format which was the culprit... 2k and 4k mp4 formats work fine... mkv works only till 1080p.. may be a codec for mkv should be released for ARM V8

I tried 4K video on VLC with enabled Full HW acceleration and without single lag
test video here: http://demo-uhd3d.com/fiche.php?cat=uhd&id=149'
every video with 60+MB/s bandwith (ofc depends on storage speed, on my Samsung 32GB EVO+ even 70MB/s plays without problems) is laggy 10 bit HEVC is not playing H264 works without problems
YT 4K videos works also on VLC...
same problem
Only 4k video with h264 of codec
Maybe it's too late to reply but the fact that LG G4 only supports 4K video in h264 (mp4) format. You should convert the video with your PC (i recommends Handbrake) select 2160p profile and do some edits or you can convert with any software. Make sure the files converted to mp4. The only one reason if you downloaded a 4k youtube video and it can't directly played on G4 is just because youtube codec for 4k isn't h264 as like 1080p or lower but webm.
hello all... i m facing a strange lag in my htc m9. currently running Viper one m9 4.3.0. but i have tested with stock rom also , that, i cannot play 4k videos smoothly which i'have downloaded from youtube. i moved that video to my device memory, then opened it with mx player. that video is only playable with mx's SW mode but veryyyyy slowly. both the HW/HW+ mode says "not supported" what can i do to play those 4k videos smoothly in my device? please..T.I.A.
The M9 have an 1080p display, so 4k videos, even 2k videos won't look better than 1080p videos...
You can download the videos at full hd resolution from youtube, you will save space too.
The problem is mxplayer. Because it is downscaling the video from 4k to 1080p on the fly via software it can only convert so much in so little time and that causes it to pause while it converts.
You will find that youtube servers do the bitrate at their end so even if the video says 4k, if you play it via the YouTube app you'll only get the max resolution that your device can handle, in this case 1080p as that is all your device can do.
