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.
I just tried the free trial of Hulu plus for android. It's nice but what's suck about it is it doesn't offer all of the shows to be streamed in the app.
One of my shows is white collar, it's not offered in the app, anone knows how to make hulu work on web?

Plex and Playon both have hulu channels, which play through your PC. So whatever you can get on your PC should be available on your tablet/phone, but you would need wifi or 3G connection to your home pc. I prefer Plex, but haven't used it for hulu. With either app, you need to install an app on the PC and have it running, and also install an app on your tablet. Note I have not tried them on the Nexus 7 yet. Or on the Galaxy Nexus since the JB update either...
playon is fanastic for hulu!! plus u can watch ur shows from ur media player or pc on playon under my media! plus if u tether u can watch playon anywhere u go.
Install the beta XBMC app and add Bluecop's repo . You will find Hulu app there it works great !!

Doesn't work, it plays the commercials but when it gets to the video it won't play it.

Hm, I can't get Hulu to play through Plex either... Not sure what's wrong with it. I haven't tested Playon, maybe that will work?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Ok, so I tested Playon too. Playon appears to work fine. Commercial played, then the show played. I only watched the first couple of minutes, but it seems fine. The only issue is Playon is not free. But you may get a free trial for long enough to use until one of the free solutions is updated to work on Jellybean. If not, google TV scripts for Playon, and install it as an add on for Hulu. It gives you access to a lot more than Hulu.

Hulu on nexus
I too am having the same problem. I would love to be able to get hulu web to work on here. I got XBMC, and Bluecop's repo, and I can get the commercials (which look great ), but not the actual content. Any more ideas, besides a streaming thing like Plex or Playon?
playon is worth the money!!

Just an update: Hulu through Plex now works. Either the update fixed it, or unchecking GPU acceleration under developer options did. I suspect the latter, since that fixed my problem with another app.
But this is not a standalone solution, works through your pc.

Not in Plex, developer options is an android setting. I had GPU acceleration checked under developer options on the Nexus, which caused an issue with a different application. I unchecked it, and at the same time an update was released for the Plex android app. I updated Plex, and after that Hulu streaming worked. But I can't tell whether the update fixed my issue or if unchecking GPU acceleration fixed it.
(Also, keep in mind Plex is not a standalone app, it works through your pc.)

Hmm. I can't find the GPU acceleration setting in the developer options of android. But I can confirm the pled update didn't fix it, I just downloaded the newest version and hulu fails to play a video. Any more suggestions? Where exactly did you find the GPU setting?

oops, sorry, its called force GPU rendering. (I think. I have nothing at all checked under developer options any more.)
Its it just the Hulu channel that wont play? When you use the Plex app, does it connect to the Plex server? Can you play any videos or any other channels? Try to confirm that you are connected to the Plex server by playing something through it.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
I just checked whether forcing GPU rendering would break it, and it had no effect. So I think the app update that fixed the Hulu channel. Unless, maybe a restart its required for the settings to take effect?

I'm still not sure.
I have nothing checked in the developer thing either, and I am able to stream other movies from my home computer. Sometimes. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it gives me "There was a problem with media playback". So I don't know what's going on. I'm running the latest version of the server on my mac, and Plex 2.2.0.6 from July 19th on my 7.
I don't know if any of this matters, but I am not rooted, and I only have the stock video player, and no codec packs, nothing extra or special on android. Sometimes little hiccups can be fixed by a reboot, so that's worth a shot. My Plex server is on windows 7 64bit, I don't know if that could make a difference. I assume that you can install a plex media player on the Mac too, and see whether or not the same thing happens playing hulu through that. At least that might help in figuring out if the issue is on the android or the desktop side. Good luck!

Still waiting on my Nexus 7 to arrive.
Was wondering, if your rooted and have one of the roms with the flash working, or you sideloaded to get flash working, are you not able to watch Hulu via the web browser to get your shows that only show via the www?
Just a thought.

Hi all,
After update to 4.3 I realize that Dice Player is crashing (vitamio is crashing too), try to install MX Player and right now still not support 4.3 yet....
Any player is running well at 4.3 on your Gnex?
Got a bunch of .flv cartoon videos that my daughter usually watch, now there's no player can play it. the stock player won't play it back.
The waiting game is all that's left. Nothing works for 4.3 as the api hasn't been implemented yet. The source pack hasn't been given to developers yet.

Hi, it seems like most video players are not working on android 4.3. I use archos & mxplayer and both are not working. I just recently tried vplayer and even though it works I want a player that can download subtitles on the fly. Can someone please recommend any compatible options !!!
bsplayer works fine and has everything you want
I'm not sure if it supports subtitle downloading, but the VLC Android beta I installed yesterday played back a 1080p movie with subtitles flawlessly. So I would highly recommend that. I honestly didn't know that certain movie players on Android download subs automatically, but if you are transferring movie files manually, can't you also retrieve the subs on your PC, just as you did the with the actual movie file(s)?

Hello all,
I just got my nexus 7 2013 yesterday! But if I update the newest version of YouTube, it will restart.
If I use any browser Chorme, Aosp, firefox , etc o play video clips from YouTube, or any video pages, it restarts.
I used to have problem with the camera also, but it was fixed with the new update! Has anyone experienced the same problems? And any suggestion to solve? Thank you

This is what I did:
Uninstalled New Youtube app, go back to old YouTube, and it works fine.
Deleted the old youtube and install the new one from play store => restart like crazy
Try to turn on "Force GPU 2D rendering", browsers could go a bit longer than 30 secs before restarting
Every browser has that problem.....
Camera, turned on, and restart, but in the newest firmware with the Q, it was fixed.
Apps like Vevo works normally.
Install Plants VS Zombies 2, restart every now and then

I've got very similar issues, any programs incorporating video randomly lock up and reboot the tablet. I've uninstalled the latest YouTube app and stopped it auto updating which seem to have stabilized that but stuff like Skype still lock up.
Brought mine back from the US to the UK and I'm going to try Asus support see what they say, otherwise I'll have to try rooting and maybe a custom rom in time.
Don't bother to root it! Just bring to Asus since it is official launced there! I rooted, tried a number of different roms, but still the same.
New error for me, flickering screen......
