During playback on any app I.e. you tube, stock, mx player video will stop but sound will continue until I tap the screen and video will jump to where the sound is and play ok for a couple seconds and then stop again until I tap the screen. It happens whether I am streaming or playing a file. If I run the video using the software decoder in mx player the issue is not present. So that tells me it's probably a hardware issue, but I don't know where to go from there. Any ideas?

I have been facing this problem for a long time now. Just few minutes ago I finished watching a movie in my HOX with default media player and also mx player.it playes smoothly without any interruption. When ever any interruptions take place like msg or anything else, I pause the video to check and when I resume the video, it lags. Then I dragged the bar to the beginning of the movie and a pop up msg shows- this video cannot be played. Then It goes back again to the gallery. Then I select the movie again from gallery and then it plays smoothly from the beginning. It happens the same with mx player and vplayer.

try diceplayer. i don't have problems like you described, i do know however that the stock player sucks and may as well not be included with the phone, and vplayer is a similar situation, used to be good, but isn't quite keeping up with the times
Hi again guys,
I understand by the MX player FAQ [sorry I can't post external links because I'm new],
Q: I'm using a Tegra 3 device. It randomly quits playing and returns to video list.
A: It is a known problem of Tegra 3 devices running Android 4.0. It typically happens with S/W decoder, so please use H/W decoder whenever possible.

that Tegra 3 devices experiences the aforementioned problem, probably something to do with software decoding (video playing just randomly stops, but probably more on software than hardware decoding). This problem happens on both VPlayer and MX player. I noticed that this problem seems to affect .avi files only, and on hardware decoding-only players like Diceplayer, there isn't this random stop problem. But I don't really prefer Diceplayer because it has choppy playback as compared to MX or VPlayer.
Question: Does this have something to do with the (quite) recent 4.04 OTA update? I never experienced this problem prior to the OTA. Does anyone experience something similar? Thanks!
diceplayer works fine, even with 1080p videos, and perfectly smooth playback.
are you sure it isn't just a problem with the way your videos have been encoded?
btw if you tap and hold on the video (when in diceplayer) and then 'select player' then software player, and it will disable the hardware encoding (temporarily)
Anyone else having playback issues with youtube app ? Problem is the video jerks, stutters, and balck screen while audio continues to play. I have rebooted my modem and router, changed video resolution... but nothing helps..
any more ideas?

I experience the same thing. Videos are jerky, and after a while the video pauses and the sound continues to play. This is a problem that many users are complaining about on google play store. Don't blame your device, it is just the youtube player acting up. Hopefully they will fix it soon.
Youtube doesnt work at all on cm, so I just use Viral Pro (Youtube Player) instead. It takes a bit getting used to, but it is the better app IMO.
Have the following issues:
1. When screen is off with audio playing in background, MX Player will wake the screen at random intervals.
2. When playing the audio file with HW+ encoder, no sound output at occasional parts of a file until I skip one second pass the offending part. Without skipping, the file will continue playing without sound.
Anyone facing the same issues and has a solution?
No issue for the same audio file when played using VLC player, nor when using MX Player with my older spare phone.
Ever since i've had this device, whenever I play a video (like an m3u8 stream) in a web browser (Chrome, Brave etc.), that uses the the default android web video player, as soon as the playback controls auto-fade-out, the video freezes (the audio is still playing as normal). If I touch the screen to bring the controls back, the video playback resumes again, but freezes as soon as the controls go away. If I repeatedly tap the screen, the video resumes but it's very jerky - like it's only playing the video when it detects a touch input.
Has anyone else had this? My Sony Xperia XZ Premium doesn't have any issues, and i've checked i'm running the same versions of Android System WebView and my web browsers, on both phones. It doesn't seem to matter what the quality of the video is either, it's doing it on a 576p web stream.
