htcmediacacheservice freezing my video playbacks

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.

Have you tried QQPlayer?

Yes, i've tried almost all of them, i've currently mx player, bsplayer.... can u guys try the same with "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1hPpG4s3-O4" witch is the avenger 2012 trailer, i've dowloaded it in 1080p....

I don't think SGW supports 1080p videos. I personally haven't tried yet, but downloading 720p and playing them on my phone works perfectly fine for me, thus I haven't tried the highest resolution. But I don't think our phone supports it.

OK, that's what i think to, 720P is awesome i know, but 1080p won't.
Thanks for your answer.

OK, tried this with Dice Player!!!!
Downloaded 1080p with TubeMate.....very good App, allows You Tube d/l, at all resolutions from 1920 x 1080 [Galaxy Tab, PC] to all other.
No workee!!!
Dice Player crashes...
so Wonder does not support 1080p!!!!

I use Tubemate to download videos too! A very good app (though I'm having difficulties on playing videos from it).
Perhaps that's why Tubemate stated that the highest resolution video for mobile phones are only for high resolution devices. So perhaps SGW isn't one of them.

1080p remember arco68 highlighted our device = none compatible.....

Tubemate FTW!!! But kinda hate its interface. Should brush up a bit.

Erm... This problem goes down to the chipset. The MSM8255T was never designed to handle 1080p. Adreno 205 cannot handle encoding and decoding of 1080p video. This makes it totally impossible for hardware decoding. You can only do it by software decoding (Untick hardware decoding, I called it software decoding since I don't know what other term should I use). Yet, our processor is not powerful enough to do the software decoding. I tried with VPlayer, 1080p does play but with laggggggggggggging video, audio is fine though.
EXTRA: For your information, Samsung Exynos chipset used in Galaxy S/Nexus S (means the phone earlier than ours, perhaps also an older chipset than ours, never verified this though) with the SGX540 GPU is designed to handle 1080p en/decoding. I'm not sure whether it works in Galaxy S or Nexus S but it's possible since their hardware is designed for that.
I did the reading quite sometime ago because I found out P1000 (Old Galaxy Tab) can handle 1080p with similar chipset (as Galaxy S/Nexus S). Just to help out a little bit =)

@FutureGamerz: a very interesting explanation! You have my thanks for that.

Thanks for all your response guys, but it would be nice for some kind of trick to enable hardware decoding, some kind of force script to enable always hardware decoder.

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 think ill wait till the next update if its still there ill return it

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.

Fast audio playback?

Hi!
I've been using Android for three years but not once have I encountered a problem like this...
So basically all the music I throw at the device(internet streams like YouTube and GrooveShark) are playing back at a faster rate than they should be. GrooveShark is the worst, it plays back at like 10x speed, YouTube(YT for TV and uListen) play the music and videos much slower, like 120% speed, but still noticably faster than it does on other devices.
When I look at the timestamp(the seek bar or whatever) I can see that the seconds pass much faster than they should.
I have no idea what's going on. Currently running CM10 but also occurs on stock. OUYA is not overclocked and changing the processor settings doesn't fix anything...
Thanks if someone can help.
Sent from my BBQ

That's a bug in cm10. It makes me sad.

So it is common. That sucks. But then again so does the official firmware... Hopefully there'll be a fix some day.

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....
