Since I usually run twiz I haven't found a video player that works as well on cm base as the stock video player on twiz especially while using an mhl adapter. Cm video player from gallery won't play a lot of movies and downloaded ones from play store are either pixelated and choppy or just totally off. Any recommendations. I love the new rom by mr impossible but since I took cable out my room and I got a mhl cord I watch a lot of movies through my phone so this is a must

Try MX Player. So far it can handle any type of video I throw at it
Sent from your phone. You should be careful where you leave that thing.

I tried that thanks. That's one that digitally pixalates like crazy. Weird how they work fine on twiz and stock video player but on aokp or cm they just suck

Anyone worked out how to get youtube to play in the background yet?
Would be nice for it to still play whilst multitasking

I miss this too Was great when I could do it in my SGS1. Load a youtube vid and hit the power button to lock the screen so its off OR even start my browser and surf while playing youtube music Pretty bad decision for Google/Samsung to break this in ICS.

I dont think its an app thing. I believe ICS is codded for it. Kinda like how when you are listening to music and take pictures the music pauses for a moment to execute the shutter sound even if you have disabled it

Does anyone know if theres a way to make youtube rotate to landscape even with screen rotation off ? I remember this used to happen on my SGS
I have run into an frustrating issue as of late regarding streaming music from my s3 through my xbox using the built in music player. What is happening is the music player will randomly pause while streaming, requiring me to press the play button to get it going again. This is not being caused by incoming messages or calls. I don't have voice enabled. Keep wifi on is also enabled.
Strong wifi signal through entire home. Running frosty Jb v7.
If it's a player issue whats the best alternative? I tried a few from the play store 2player, bubble UPnp, poweramp , winamp. They either have ****ty interfaces or act just as wonky.
Maybe I am just not understanding the tech of it. I turn the xbox, tv and stereo on. Then push the icon on my music player(see attached photo) and it starts streaming through the xbox. I thought it was pretty slick until it started acting up on me.
I'm getting the same thing. Happens more often when I put the phone on shuffle.

Possibly a custom kernel issue? No idea, just a thought. I know they can cause things to not work properly sometimes.
Was on stock. Good thought though.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I tried bubble UPnP for a while.. didnt like the interface to begin with.. I want to go to artist then sort through various albums. It did work however until the program itself began freezing up and not retrieving my files. So that was a no go.
I am stock. Am I able to stream music as well? Or do I need a particular rom ...Assuming you guys figure this out.

Can be done on stock as well. Its a built in feature, just need to have a wireless(wifi) capable tv, xbox, or ps3 (maybe some thing else like adapters) pretty sure anything DLNA capable. And phone and Device need to be on same wifi.

I did it on stock very easy. If you have Xbox, as long as it's on, your good. If you are watching Netflix, it will stop what you are watching. You have to use a stock samsung app. I just go through my gallery, find a pic or a movie, choose it, and there is an option which looks like a monitor with a couple of hornizontal arrows going through it. This doesn't work for streaming something on a website or whatever. If it is a file already saved to your phone it will work. All you have to do is go to the picture, or start playing the video, tap the screen and on the top you will find that different icon. Again, you have to have your Xbox ON or it won't show the icon. For Xbox it is cool because you could start watching the video or pic on your phone and want to say to everyone, HEY< WATCH THIS! and with one click it goes.
You can also connect it to work with PS3 but it only works as a media server. Meaning, with Xbox, you can decide, hey, I want to watch this on the Xbox now! With PS3, you have to search for the file and THEN, play it. It's not such an immediate action.
Been trying to figure this out...
Also does anyone kno why the video player is hidden in my apps...what video player is everyone using?

Hold Volume down + power at the same time is screen shot. I use vlc from the market for video cause there is nothing it won't play.. l

Download MX Player from play store and download the codec with it if you need to. I've been using this video player since day 1 and no issues. Plays all types of files as well.
Its part of the ROM and can be used in conjunction with simply holding down power button. This option is in system/power menu... Got to do some better googling or ROM snooping
Vid player question is an easy one and with all the better Google play choices why run stock which would be incorporated into gallery as my guess.

Your probably using DLNA media share feature..
I can do it directly to my TV or to my parents home theater system
Its a great feature, also works for videos and pictures. Unfortunately only on stock apps...which sucks, as the stock music player lags horribly when you have so many songs as I do.

I tried using this on my ps3 and couldnt get it to work.. imma try it again..
It would be cool if google music added this feature since thats the music app I use now..

On every TW rom now that I've noticed Google play music doesn't seem to have gapless playback anymore. I thought it was a kernel issue but it wasn't the case. Any aosp rom like cm seems to have it. Why not tw all of a sudden??

Bump
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
I wanted to bump this after updating my Play Music to today's latest version, featuring All Access. OP says that they've gotten gapless playback out of Play Music on AOSP ROMs, but not TW. I haven't gotten it to work on any kind of ROM, and it's really frustrating. I want to leave Spotify for All Access, but Spotify's gapless streaming is a huge draw for me, and I'm just not understanding why I'm not experiencing the same thing when it's advertised as a feature of Play Music.
edit: wanted to clarify that I don't have gapless playback with local files, either.
Same boat here. I'm about ready to switch from Spotify to All Access, but lack of gapless playback is a big mark against Google Play.
Sent from my STOCKORAMA-Powered SGH-T999 via Tapatalk 2
It really sucks because I had Gapless playback in the beginning of January, then ever since mid January I lost that feature and never gained it back. Idk if it's a line of code that all gs3 devs are using to tweak their rom that's causing the feature to disappear, or if it's a Google error. My cousins gs4 has it and he's on stock non rooted TW. You don't know how frustrated I was when I heard one of my favorite live albums back to back on his phone when I can't on mine.
