I think it's the Facebook App honestly. Try using either Dolphin HD browser set to Desktop mode, or the stock browser in desktop mode and use Facebook from there.

Thanks worked for me

Cannot play video in Facebook
Hi,
I installed CM 6.1 and cannot play Facebook videos (YouTube Videos play fine) with the error "Sorry, this video cannot be played"..
Already factory reset and installed adobe flash player a couple time...
I had the same issue with my G2 stock ROM but the videos play fine on Virtuous Desire Z ROM's...
Any idea how can i fix the issue ???
Thanks in Advance...

Installed Vplayer and all videos work now

[Q] Problem with flash videos in browser

Hi
Whenever i try playing a flash video in the browser (or in skyfire), after i press the play button, the progress bar is moving, i get the audio, but there's no video - the video area remains black.
I'm experiencing this for about 2 months now, in which i switched ROMs (iceandfire, cyanogen), updated the flash player several times, updated skyfire several times (it happens both in skyfire and stock browser), cleared cache of those 3 apps, cleared data, tried to uninstall and reinstall...
nothing helps...
Any ideas?
Thanks
Edit: found a similar thread at cyanogonmod forums:
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/..._hl__+black++video__fromsearch__1#entry194047
I'll keep an eye on it over there. I''ld delete this post if I knew how...

I also had this problem, then I downloaded the 10.2.idontknow and it worked again!

i am using the cm 7.0.3 and adobe flashplayer 10.3. seems no problem. i did not do any extra setting. so give it a try.

I have a similar issue. Mine will play fine in the browser, but when I open the video in Youtube after starting a video in the browser, it will start to play, but only audio plays - no video. I am currently using a stock, non-rooted G2. I didn't have this
problem with my last G2 running CM7 though...

I have the same issue. However my YouTube app works fine. An interesting point is videos that automatically open in full screen from the browser work. I'm on cm7.0.3 with the latest flash.
I used to be able to resolve the issue with an older version of flash but now when I do that YouTube gripes that I must update flash player.

Wow I must be lucky, because I've never experience this issue. And I watch youtube dailymotion on the browser and never had this issue

I've had the black screen of death too. Only audio on random embedded videos. Like worldstarhiphop.com for instance. I'll try a fresh rom install and see if that works if no fixed is found in this thread. It's the only thing hindering CM7 based roms.

from the cyanogenmod forums (the link i posted in my first post):
@dewd write:
"Yes. I did 2 things to make it work.
1. I updated to the latest version of Flash in the market (10.3.185.22).
2. I used ROM Manager to "Fix Permissions" (and rebooted).
After these steps I was able to watch Flash movies.
This did not fix Netflix, It plays movies with sound, but no picture. "
it worked for me, took a couple of minutes to fix permissions but then i was able to see flash videos again.
i checked it only in 1 website though...

I have same problem...

Apparently the fix permissions method didn't work...
So I tried what @Tommebaas recommended, and downloaded an old 10.2 version of Adobe Flash Player.
It worked! thanks @Tommebaas
Here's a link to the version that did the trick for me:

10.3 is better and runs flash that 10.2 can't, so that's not really a fix if I downgrade.

What does 10.3 run, that 10.2 can't? I don't view a whole bunch of sites with Flash. But for what I have viewed, I've never had an issue as far back as 10.1. It seems like a lot of the recent updates have had more to do with tablets (and very minor performance enhancements) than anything else.

I moved Flash to SD and it works for me now.

the 10.2 install fixed it for me, idk what is suppose to be special about 10.3 but um if it doesnt work its not better than 10.2 so yeah.

Chrome beta and YouTube

I'm using Chrome beta and i have noticed a few issues. The one which is driving me crazy is the integration with the native YouTube app, i mean, there's no integration or i can't find how to get it. Videos are not in HD and there is no fullscreen option. Any idea?

Just relax its still in beta. I'm sure Google will fix that issue in on of there updates

WHy are you using the website instead of the app. I am just wondering.

the app is super slow on my device for some reason. The website on Chrome loads almost instantaneously for me.

If you set your youtube account to use HTML5 rather than Flash, the new Chrome Beta plays everything in the Browser if you prefer that.

This can be seen with links to any apps. Clicking on an address in search results also uses browser based Maps instead of Maps app. You can star this bug here:

Flash player??

Sorry guys I tried the guide about installing flash player but it still doesn't seem to be working. The video and play button will actually show but when I try to play the video it either won't buffer/buffers forever or try to play an ad, but fail (won't even load).
Please forgive any inconvenience this causes anybody. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Simply download and install using this link.
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/...roid/11.1.115.48/install_flash_player_ics.apk
It says ics but i confirm this works on jelly bean.

Yes, that's the one I've been trying. I download it, open ES file explorer, locate and install it, yet I can't watch videos other than YouTube (which I never had a problem with in the first place).
Edit: Sometimes it seems as if it really wants to play 'cus the buffer symbol will kind of skip and speed up, but continues buffering forever.
Also, I'm using the default browser, but have also tried boat/boat mini, opera, dolphin, and dolphin jetpack if that counts.
And this might be the issue: I'm trying to watch the videos on animefreak.tv and justdubs.tv. I'm not sure if those types are supported, but they did say they needed flash player 10.1+
Thanks again for your time.
Another edit: Just tried a different video player on the anime freak.TV site and it worked flawlessy, so I suppose it's safe to assume the others are just obsolete or something?

What rom you're running? Browser? Desktop mode or android mode (user agent)? Which flash player do you have

For flash to work you need to use another browser other than stock or chrome, example Boat Browser.
In your app drawer you should have flash settings, open it using boat browser then simply close the tab. Open a new one with flash and give it a shot, it should work ok.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

The people's ROM gs3 and as I've said I tried the default browser, boat AND boat mini, opera and dolphin with flash player 10.1 and 11+.
I'm still messing with it here and there but still only the specific video player on animefreak.TV will work. Not including YouTube of course. And I tried desktop view and otherwise with all that had the option (boat, default, dolphin but dolphin keeps flash off always regardless, so...)

Well, with my modded browser, Dolphin creators were able to see that flash works just fine on the android 4.1 plus platform. So now they updated their browser to v10 and version 10 and higher now support flash without the need to mod it.

If using a Samsung Touchwiz Jellybean 4.2.2 based rom why not use Firefox as
a browser, it plays all the adobe flash videos just fine.
I have installed the adobe flash player for android in my phone but I noticed that
even without it, the firefox browser plays any of the flash videos I tested so far.
