htcmediacacheservice freezing my video playbacks - HTC One X

Since I bought my phone I have trouble playing videos in gallery, I finally found what is bugging the playback (electric sound and FC) it's an app called ''htcmediacacheservice'', when I kill this app in Task Manager the video playbak is good but after some trials this app will come back again bugging videos.
Am I the only one to have this buggy service/app?
Deleting it in titanium backup would be good?
Still running stock rom with 1.28

i have the stutter but its not common most of the time play fine and sometimes just go crazy
i guess you just found a solution
I just updated using the 1.29 RUU and currently restoring everything
ill report if the bug is gone

I think this app is here to ''help'' the video player with cache,but sometimes this cache get's buggy or the app itself is not stable,I have found a list of ''deletable'' apps in Sense and this one can be deleted without affecting stability

lol bro half day into your new hox and you already discovering stuff! good job
gallery runs videos using the saver core, so lets hope this is unrelated

what is ''saver core''?
Do you think it's bad ram?

5th battery saver core of Tegra3 to save battery it
its runs in the default video player to play h264 videos and when the screen is turned off
my offer still stands

Hi,
I think I'm having same issue with video playback. It runs most of the time smooth, but sometimes sound "clicks" and video pauses for some part of a second and run further ok. I killed that cache media service mentioned before but it didn't help. Any idea what else can be wrong?
I'm on stock 1.29 rom.

I had the exact same problem with my HOX, happy watching a video and then it would just suddenly stop for no reason at all. I'll have to try this fix when I get my new HOX if the problem hasn't been sorted.

The Desire is almost junk at the moment... :( YouTube and he-aac v2 is screwed

I'm sick of waiting for them to fix these issues... All my music collection on my phone is encoded into aac+ (he-aac v2) with parametric stereo. Now it's useless because the decoder has a bug since the froyo upgrade it sounds like crap!
Youtube is also crap since v2.2 update. It's impossible to watch a youtube clip because it crashes almost instantly or after a minute or so. Incredibly annoying.
I think these 2 features are VERY important to fix asap because I can't recommend anybody upgrading to 2.2 or even buying a Desire before we know it gets fixed!!!
Sad...
Don't know about the music thing. However Youtube works perfectly for me on froyo 2.2. Though I ma running a custom ROM

same here. youtube works flawlessly
same on the rom too leedroid 1.8c
YouTube works fine for me as well . Try factory reset and don't restore backup . In general froyo does feel sluggish to me as well
youtube and music works for me
i use mp4 audio too (AAC)
Youtube is working perfectly for me and im on stock FroYo. Dont know about "aac" music playback though..

Videoplayer

Hello
i am searching for a videoplayer that plays HD movies and AVI, xvid etc..i tried rockplayer but the video turned out laggy and out of sync. Anyone have an idea of an good player that plays this kind of codec?
The.Simpsons.S22E11.720p.HDTV.X264-DIMENSION
without lagg or out of sync problems
thanks

that is very weird mate can u plz link the version of rockplayer u are using? i am running 2.2.1 froyo stock
Wow you're able to play 720p movies? I get lag with each video player out there. Rockerplayer, vplayer, arc.. but dvd quality runs perfect.
CM7 nightly 20 oc'd to 1.4ghz.

no like i said i cannot run 720p movies so there is no solution for this ?
The.Simpsons.S22E11.720p.HDTV.X264-DIMENSION
^Did you get that from the pirate bay? Shame on you.
Try an overclock it should help some. I stream 720p flash movies and they actually perform quite well at 1.516Mhz performance, but it does overheat after a while. If you are not rooted and OC is not an option, You might have to convert the file to 480X800 to get it to play smooth. Be warned though that this can take from 20 minutes to 6 hours depending on the speed of your computer, and results in image quality loss.
If you ever get out of sync issues, just jump back a few seconds and it will resync itself. For flash movies I usually resync it every 15 minutes or so.

anyway its to bad it cannot play 720p properly and i have no plans on rooting and oc
You can try Act 1, I have had it play a few formats the others wouldnt...I like Rockplayer, Vplayer not so much. Meridian is another good video player.
Try arcMedia
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
ya arc media is pretty good
If anyone is still looking for more video player choices, Vital Player seems pretty good. Either pretty new, or I just haven't found it before. Good interface, seems compatible with lots of my videos, and automatically selects software or hardware decoding based on the video (without having to select or toggle like Rock Player). I've seen some complaints in the Market reviews about the free version showing ads during video playback. But I haven't seen this. I have AdFree running, so it seems to be doing its job. Also, Vital Player is not yet compatible with Gingerbread, so it doesn't work on CM7.
Since I've switched to CM7, its Rock Player for me. It plays almost everything I've thrown at it, without lag. vPlayer lagged like crazy for me on some videos. ArcMedia has lots of things I didn't like about the interface, and lagged on some WMV files.
I've been using the stock video player since day one when I got my G2. I play all my videos at 720P after converting to .mp4 using handbrake. No lag issues at all.

Bug or Feature?

Just want to start off by saying that this phone is amazing besides the LOS. Well back on topic.
I have the updated version of youtube that was provided here on the forum. I downloaded it and installed. Ever since i installed it i noticed that i can play a YouTube video and turn off the screen and the video will continue playing. Now i can listen to some music that have remixes but are not available to download using the app.
What is yall's opinion on that. Good or bad?
Sidenote: i use wifi

I believe this is a feature because I was recording a video yesterday and when I did a playback the sound was still going while the screen was black.... Maybe its just to save backlight battery life
I would say its a bug. Sometimes when I am watching a flash video on the web browser and I exit the browser (and I mean even kill the browser in the task manager) the video audio will play until the end of the video. I think they've got bigger fish to fry with this LOS, but after that's solved, I intend to bring this one up.

HTC ONE X music stutter

first off all sorry for my bad English ill do my best to make it clear.

I also have the similar problem but only while playing Youtube videos. When I use MX Player for videos stored on phone there is no such problem. Try watching the same video on the youtube website on the browser.

I have thoose issues but only when using any equalizer app.
Im using viper rom i have this bs problem also on my 3rd one x in less than a month now

The only solutions that comes to mind are the stuttering issue while beats (eq) is active (turn it off completely), or the CPU that is running on a too low clockrate/voltage.
Furthermore have you guys tried a hard reset ? Maybe there are some rogue apps running in the background and clogging up your memory/CPU resources.
The only time I experienced such issue was when I ran the older firmware versions with the beats stuttering bug, or when my phone didn't have enough resources left to do the job

My phone does not do this with beats active. You might need to update your phone. If you want to return it I would now as I can't imagine there will be a new software update coming out in the foreseeable future.

Uninstall the anti-virus software, I think that is causing the problem ,
Also I think that it is a problem inside the rom,
I think it must be too much ram usage.
Are u using stock rom or custom rom

The best anti virus is common sense. Anti virus software will only slow down your system, be it your phone, your PC, your laptop, etc.
Please provide as many information as you can. What firmware are you using? What Android version? What video players did you try? It looks like a regular lag/stutter for me. Remember that Grand is not a fast phone, try not to play full HD videos with massive bitrate.

I'm using stock rom jellybean 4.2.2 and I watch lots of movies, series, Videos, etc on mx player but since some time videos n stuff r getting stuck so I tried to watch in bs player , the prob prevailed, I downloaded anti-viruses and scanned my phone several times it shows that there is no prob in it.
I still have 400 MB on my internal memory and I recently downloaded gta san andreas on my phone which works perfectly fine without lagging

Uninstall the anti viruses dude. There's no need to install such thing on other systems than Windows XP.
Are the videos HD (720p/1080p) with high bitrate? I personally had lags and stutter while playing a 6 mbps H.264 1080p video on Vplayer, so this could be the issue.
Do you have any app running in the background while playing the video?
Do you use SW/software or HW/hardware decoder in the player setting? I personally had massive lag using software decoder on Vplayer.

I have been watching these series since long time but since sometime it started lagging. Its the same quality in all the videos
I trief both hardware and software decoders but it lags in both.
There are no apps running in the background.
But my ram isn't reducing from 500MB is that a factor.
I'm a user of grand 2.. strange I have the same exact problem as you.. I'm on kitkat stock.. I never had issues before while playing hd videos even on high ram usage.. gave a restart it didn't work .. I think factory reset will work, mah I'd loose my data.. mx player with sw decoder and hw+ decoder works fine,I guess ill stick to that for a while
i too have the same problem...what to do dont know......anyone knows abt the prob please let us know....
