So I have some purchased movies from Google. I recently tried to play one. It loads up, starts playing, and plays the first 9 seconds, buffers, jumps back to second 8 and boot loops between second 8 and 9 constantly. I went to Play Store and tried everything they suggested to troubleshoot the issue. Cleared cache. Pinned(downloaded the movie) for offline viewing. I even deleted it from system and reinstalled it. Nothing works. It plays 9 seconds and bootloops. I searched Google and XDA and couldn't find any threads relating to this issue. I have contacted Google directly and am awaiting a response.
Anyone else who can confirm this issue? Im running stock rooted LG8.

Correct Answer, you cannot play Google movies on a rooted phone or tablet, has to be stock. DRM(digital rights management) comes in to play which checks for root access, if root, then no play, because its easier to pirate a movie with root access

Not true, movies work on my rooted nexus7 and this phone as well. Google updated play to stop root issues and playback a couple months ago. I'm using cm10 on my phone and just downloaded all my movies as well as watched one, tablet is on paranoid ROM.
Earlier I was on codename, which would not let me download any movies.

Google made a big point last year (or was it hte year before?) to say that rooted devices will not be able to stream movies from Google.
I wonder if maybe AOSP ROm's like CM10 don't include the DRM APK's that would report on root to Google?
Still no response from Google. Still no movies streaming.
Google does allow rooted devices to stream. Im now running a stock jellybean rom leak. Still having the same exact problem.
I'm facing this issue too.. rooted deodex'd LJ7 build. I've seen some ROMs have removed DRM or something... Is that a way to get around this problem?
Try a different ROM. I am on free gs3 right now and just tested my movies, playback works fine.

I'm on a Galaxy S4 rooted deodexed and no custom kernel lets me play movies past 9 seconds besides stock kernel.
After I upgraded to JB I can't access my Google music library on my Hox anymore. I can view it in a browser when using Tunnel Bear at Google play. I am still unrooted and on stock ROM cause I just got the phone back from repair and just want to see if its OK before I go with ARHD 18
Anyone have a solution for this?

Hi y'all , so finally let go of my htc one s for the s3 and I just recently rooted it.
Im using the stock rom still but I keep having this weird issue that everytime on any video I play on any media player, in fullscreen, would freeze once the HUD would go away. But it will continue to play perfectly once I tap it , but back frozen again when the hud goes away...
Any help ?
I searched and can't find anything.
Thanks.

Hmmmm sounds like a dozzzy, have you tried clearing data/cache on the youtube app?
Ok I just saw it was more then YouTube .
Are you familiar with backing up you're rom then flashing a new rom?
Or just save everything and try a factory reset.. hope this helps

Hey guys I hope this is the place for this if not please move where need be. I have after s3 that has been rooted and running wicked sensations rom with Ziggy kernel. First my pics wouldn't show up saying they where gone but after looking on my sd card they r clearly there, so I got a new gallary off the play store and it worked fine, then tonight the music player had none of my songs on it but yet again they r on the SD card and play fine off another music player app. Anyone have similar trouble? Do I need to update my rom and kernel? (Some what new to the game) please and thanks in advanced guys.

Just go to app settings and clear cache and data. The force stop. Worked for me
Hi. Maybe someone has had the same experience and can help me. Recently I tried watching one of my purchased Play Store movies. I can not get it or any others to play. Either they do not play at all, I get an error with random numbers, or they play for 9 seconds then freeze. When they freeze at 9 seconds, the sound start making scratchy notices then it will loop back to 0 seconds and start over.
This is just on my Galaxy S3. Works fine on my Nexus 7. Also if I use my Galaxy S3 to stream to my ChromeCast it works fine.
I have looked online and xda for info and have found a few others cases, but no fixes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Play Movies. Cleared cache and data from Play Movies and others system apps. Remove/disabled any mods. Hid root. I'm currently on Wicked Sensations MK3, but it used to work on it. But just to check I have also flashed other ROMs including a Stock Rooted MK3. Thanks in advance if anyone has any ideas. Maybe I will go back to a MD4 ROM and see if it helps.

Did you ever get this sorted?
Problem presisted onto Kitkat ND8. When I flashed stock kernel it fixed it.
