Hello everyone. My wife and I just received 4.2.2 OTA for our GNEX and we discovered a bug. If you watch a YouTube video in fullscreen mode and receive a call, the video will keep playing (audio). You will see the call prompt, and if you swipe to answer, the audio from the video will keep playing in the ear piece rendering the call useless. Also, after ending the call (which you will have to do), the video will keep playing even with the default stock browser hidden in the background (this part I like). So Google, fix the full screen call bug, but add/keep the feature to keep playing Flash videos when the browser is hidden.
Edit: This is most likely unrelated to 4.2.2. I believe it's a Flash or stock browser bug.

We're running Takju, not that it makes a difference. Chrome doesn't support Flash, so if you are watching YouTube in Chrome, it must be HTML5. That would mean it's a Flash bug I guess. I will test the YouTube app. Thanks for the feedback!
Edit: I just tested the YouTube app and the bug is not present. So this is most likely a Flash bug, and since Flash is no longer officially supported, I don't think we will see a fix for this anytime soon.

But maybe it can be a bug of flash? I really don't know.
What browser or app are you using to watch flash videos on Android 4.2.2?
ok, We are waiting your feedback.. Your doubts/problem can be the same of many others

Yeah, I think it's a Flash bug. Like you said, the YouTube app doesn't have this problem. I usually watch YouTube videos using the stock browser.

So probably is this..

Has anyone else experienced this bug using the stock browser?

I used to be able to watch 720p video without any problem in MX Player, but after switching to Jellybean the picture is choppy. If I switch to software rendering instead of hardware it improves somewhat, but it's still choppy at least every other minute or so until it recovers. If I play it in the VLC beta I get artifacts every now and then until it works itself out.
Anyone recognize this issue and has any idea what to do about it?
Probably best to wait till we have a full version and not just a developer preview leaked version.

Well, that wasn't very constructive. I'm perfectly aware it's a leaked version, I'm just wondering if it's a known issue first of all and secondly if there's anything to do about it. If the only answer you can give is "don't use leaked/unstable roms" then you might as well not answer at all.
Not an expert at this but I think it's because the codec with MX or VLC player isn't optimized for JB yet?
Has anyone else noticed that since the last OTA update, the individual video brightness feature is gone? Can someone on a stock rom check to make sure I'm not going crazy?
I am on the original stock rom. The phone was rooted about 6 weeks ago.
I checked under settings>display>brightness.....but didn't see a video adjustment level.
But I am probably looking in the wrong place. Let me know where it is and ill check again.....

I'm not on stock but did you go to the video app and check the preferences? There should be an option there. If it's gone, I guess they did remove it since people were complaining.
But no worries! MX player (or was it BS player?) has a feature where you can set the brightness for videos played with the app.

Yup they removed it from the video player settings.
Yes they've removed it from browser also. But no big deal since we have brightness toggle in pull down menu (=

I'm using a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S2 on CM11 with TWRP. I cannot seem to get video recording or playback (although I am not very sure about video playback, I've only received pictures in the past while) to work. With an older version of Snapchat, video recording appears to work but then right before I am about to send the video, a message pops up and says that it cannot play the video. Is this related to "Camcorder does not actually record to storage" in the TeamChopsticks "Known Issues That Will Be Fixed"? If not, is there a way that I can fix this?

I've been having this problem with all jellybean ROMs, including stock.
I'm with ya, most likely a Jellybean problem. So if you absolutely need it, maybe revert to an ICS rom or go to stock.

Or is it when you send....it dosent work at all? I havent sent one yet...but I will test more...but I had a camera problem and combined a lot of peoples ways to make it work. I can record at 1080p, I can watch what i filmed, and my gallery dosent FC and reboot phone. I am on UB4.0final, but that camera had issues so I did some research and tested stuff out and now I have what I have...LOL. Let me know if I was right bout the video play back after you record or is it just sending and I will try to help you guys out best I can

the only fix I've found is to use an older version of snapchat , but you unfortunately lose many of the newer features
You wouldn't happen to have an older version would you
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
working version
I have had these problems too, I find that the version that works is SnapChat 3.07, lets you use front and rear cam for pics and video with no issues.
I just googled for the APK
Im running CM 11 nightlies. I think it's something to do with video framework. I have similar problems with the Tiny Chat app.
I tried googling but couldn't find it could you pm me a link

My Acro S is running Beanstalk 4.4.278. Great rom so far but 1080p playback (specifically on MX Player) does not work. Freezes and reboots my phone when I try. 1080p recording with latest Google Camera works like a charm but its frustrating I can't view any of them. I haven't tried playback on any other video players though. I removed the video player that came with KitKat or the rom btw so I can't try that too.
Any help or advice?

Just tried it (since I had never tried it before you mentioned it) and it works fine. The video is a little juttery, but I can live with that.
Running BeanStalk v4.4.285, on the same phone.. Kernel is 3.4.0-Evovle-v1.11+ [email protected]
I think you might want to upgrade to the latest version - that might fix it.

Thanks for answering
Any notable bugs on 4.4.285? I might upgrade if that will fix the playback problem and if there aren't any annoying bugs..

There are two that are a bit annoying (again, not everyone has these though, so you might get lucky).
1. Sometimes when a call comes in, the screen will either stay blank and take a while to light up (by which time the caller has hang up)
2. Sometimes streaming a video online (with any player, not just MX) will crash and force the device to reboot when you try to exit watching the video.
These are the two major issues that I find on my phone. Never the less, I still prefer this version to stock, so I have been using it for more than a month now and I am very happy.
Hi, can anyone with android 10 (QDLMIXM) please try this?
1) Play a Youtube video in 720 or 1080p (I use the Vanced app but this isn't even youtube specific afaik, just very clear to see!)
2) NOT FULLSCREEN video (fullscreen seems ok)
3) Adjust the volume and observe video.
Does video playback stay smooth while volume overlay is on screen?
Mine is jerky as hell and I want to know if it's worth trying reset etc before i roll back to 9, which sounds a right pain.
I tried disabling HW GUI in overlay options and that makes things slow all the time, so worse.
This seems related to all the slowdown issues i'm having with 10, with most apps. It's awful!
Makes even typing difficult. Phone ruined basically. Same for everyone or just me?

I tried this just now and it didn't stutter or stop at any point. Video playback and sound stayed smooth as ever on 1080p in the official YouTube app.

Thank you. Right, seemsi've got something messed up with my phone then, might be worth a full reset unless anyone has better ideas what it could be please?
Shame because this is really only issue i've got with 10 (so far...). Thanks for trying that.
This is quite sad. I have the same issues on YouTube (both official and vanced), and severe lag on Reddit, Messenger and Discord, along with Gboard which has killed my typing experience. Nothing but pain on this phone recently.
