Hey guys, i seem to have ran into a little problem...so little actually that i just noticed it now (4 months after flashing the rom) lol
Im running RCMix 4.0 energized blue, with RCMix 3D v12.2 kernel (and V6 Supercharged), and it seems my phone (Desire Z, just in case) cant play movies. Everytime i try to open a movie (not .avi nor MPEG-4, the ones i tried so far) it says it cant play the file, but it does ask me what app would i like to use to view the video (ES Movie Player, or Stock Video Player...neither works).
Anyone got any ideas as to why this could be happening?? and more importantly, anyone knows how i can fix this??
Thanks!!

To all gingerbread users, you might have noticed that 2.3.3 roms do not play some video files. Someone informed me that this is because of the froyo libraries missing in gingerbread.
I currently have 10 videos downloaded from tubemate and only one works. Tried rockplayer, act1, movies etc....
I have tested oh so many roms and all have the same result. Currently, Oxygen 2.0, Redux 1.0.0, GingerVillain 1.3 and CM 7 nightly do not those video files.
Amethyst does - probably because it is outdated.
Anyone knows more on this matter?

Are we "doomed" to not play so many video files from now on?
Does that have anything to do with google and webm v8 codec?
hey guys just installed CM7,after using RCmix S 1.2 and found that videos are lagging on the default Google player as well as Rock player.Before that the same video used to play without any hiccups on RCmix and LeeDroid(both 2.3) fine.Could any one point out why this is happening???
Anyone having problem with playing large video files like mp4 files of sizes 100 mb above on DHD??? I never had this problem when i had the stock rom, but since my first flash that is 6.3.1 this prob is there. I have now flashed to 7.0.0 and the rom runs great but the same problem still persists. I have searched various threads and tried various video players. The video lags, that is the video buffering is slow but the sound plays faster. I am trying to play the same files that i used to play before but it lags like anything. Someone please help, i cant even post in the thread of My rom, as i am a new member.

Hey everyone, been using kantry123's jelly king v1.3 for quite awhile, and realised there were a few issues with video playback, but can't post this in the dev thread cos I haven't got enough posts yet. Anyway, here are the problems: In youtube, green lines in video playback both in HQ and LQ at times, rather unpredictable, sound has no issues though. Also, in the browser, youtube doesn't work, can't play any videos from websites like dailymotion. Browser attempts to open the video but it stops after awhile. Attempted this with Dolphin and other browsers but nothing worked. Perhaps there's something wrong with the OpenGL?
If anyone can help me, Thanks! Hope to get this fixed then this rom would be almost perfect!

Videos from browser don't work in any rom which is ICS+ but there shouldn't be any green lines so try reflashing the rom.
Don't Forget to press thanks.
Odp: [Q] Jelly King v1.3 Video Playback in browser
I was able to get videos in browsers working on my wfs while using cm10 (latest modpunks) , I installed armv6 version of flash and manually pushed and chmod few libs to system. Problem is that they weren't smooth at all (i guess it's cpus fault), and that's why recommend using yt app for that. If you ll still interested i might look for these files again, as I don't use that phone anymore and I didn't keep it.

I'm sorry if I had to start a new thread instead of just replying to the main thread because I just made this account a few days ago cause my I forgot the email/password of my old one
The ROM involved with this issue is ckp5v's myONEv RC9.5 FX+
Anyway, I found a bug while using my phone, which is running on the aformentioned ROM; whenever I try to play a movie (around 720p 1.1+ bitrate 900 mb big) it plays for a few seconds (about 1 to 2) then a pop up comes up and says "Sorry this video cannot be played". I know its not the phone's capability because I have another unit of the same phone (with stock ROM and Kernel; unrooted) and it plays seamlessly. I tried using alternatives, like VLC, but it either becomes laggy or pixelated. I tried using all the techniques to speed up the system but nothing happens.
I'm just wondering if this is a known bug or if it isn't is there any fix to this? I really really love this rom and I don't want to change it, cause it's the most stable out there, aside from this minor issue. I just hope that there's a fix, and thank you very very much for your great work! :good:
Hello? Anyone out there? Please?
Have not had that problem when using this ROM.I ran it for about a month and played lots of video from SD card, over my lan through es file explorer, and streamed from the net (usually over WiFi).I use mobo player. So, cannot reproduce it.
Usually, I had over clock to 1.2ghz using smartass and cfq
try MX Video Player
