Finally got it but it's very weird,
When I found this issue I was updating my apps from play store, browsing on built-in browser and was watching video on MX player in landscape mode.
I created the same scenario and after closing MX Player, closing browser and disabling Landscape mode I got my brightness adjuster back.
I found it weird so checked it thrice, all 3 times I was able to reproduce the issue.
Now I'm not confirm what causing this issue.
1 - Play Store
2 - Browser
3 - MX Player

Try clear MX Player defaults or don't watch browser based videos on MX Player?
Yes MX was the culprit.
Watching browser based videos caused the issue

I had same problem since installing mx player.
But mx player wasn't active at the time. It was vlc player. Phone shut down whilst in horizontal mode playing vlc. So opened vlc put it horizontal then vertical then closed the program. Brightness bar came back instantly. Thanks for the clue.

I've transferred a few 720p videos to my nexus, only to find the stock player doesn't seem to like their formats/file type. So I downloaded Mx video player app which is fine, other than its ability to remove menu buttons and actually use the full screen. As such its cropped and squashed on the screen.
So does anyone know of a way round it or possible any decent video software which has been optimised to use the nexus screen?
Thanks

MX player removes the buttons on my screen..
^^how..it doesn't play full for me
MX doesn't remove buttons for me, Diceplayer does.
Double checked it. Latest MX Player 1.4c installed (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.mxtech.videoplayer.ad) no update in the market available.
Does not remove the button bar.
They promised to fix it in next release.
Its been fixed

Can't find menu dots in latest MX build
I am on CM9 Beta 1 and when I try on any browser to download a music or video file (no matter what site) it only gives me the option to play the video or music clip in the stock video player or music player. I ran into this problem once before and just found and deleted the video player and music player but when I tried to do that this time I could not find the video or music player anywhere in the root explorer. I can't even be sure that deleting them will sove my problem. I've asked before but no one seems to understand what I mean. I hope i've made it completely clear what the problem is. My question is, can anyone help me figure out how to either disable the players or find a way around them to be able to download music and videos on my phone again? Thank you in advance
Sounds like you went to download some music or video in the past, and selected the "do this by default" option set on your browser, you may want to clear data on the browser, and whatever app it opens when you try to download. That should help.

I've tried that too. No matter what browser I use the same thing happens. and as for the video and music player. They're not even in the app list. it's like they're ghost apps! lol but seriously thank you for the suggestion though
I reinstalled everything and i'm able to download music and files again. Video is still only giving me the option to watch and not download. it wouldn't be an issue but i used to like downloading and then watching videos instead of having it buffering every 3 seconds.
When I play a song video in youtube and press the "Home" button, the song STOPS playing.
Why?
I want the song to continue playing in the background.
Any suggestions? Please reply.
Its always done that cause youtube isnt a regular music player. Your phone is literally ending the session with the youtube app. The best you can hope for is waiting for the screen to time out and just stick it in your pocket after that lol. But yeah only music players (as far as i know in this situation) will continue to play in the background for you.
U can find a version of youtube that works this way... google is ur friend

Try the app stickit! It will allow you to play a song video on youtube or other videos on your device in the background or foreground. It actually makes floating screen you can adjust the size of so you can "multitask". Occasionaly hiccups when playing a video... but not bad overall.

Dice player has an option to continue video playback even when the app is running in the background
Slimrom has a modified Youtube in its gapps, allows the video (sound) to continue being played when screen off
You could also try "MX Player" Is a good one, and it has that option in settings (Continue the video play while screen is off). Hope it's useful.
I use Screen Standby for my Nexus 10 and it works pretty good.
Screen Standy
+1 for screen standby
Works like a charm, i especially like the hdmi autosensing and the autostarting any app feature.
Anyone else encountering this bug? Sometimes apps like MX Player or VLC stop responding or refuse to start playing a video, then you hahave to quit them and wait a while before trying to play again. I'm using a ZE551ML. This never happened on my previous Snapdragon phones.
I am having some freeze up in MLB app but not with Kodi

I have no issues with both mxplayer and vlc. Is it the video file? Try another file?
The file doesn't matter, I believe it's a software bug in the phone. Maybe the drivers or some codecs need updating

Codecs wouldn't be the issue cause those apps use their own codecs but it could be software issue

Try installing mx player codec (x86)

I've done that too but it made no difference. What's funny also is that MX Player and VLC will act upu then start working again around the same time.
I just started experiencing the same problem. I'm superzen. Have been working for the pass 2 months n just last night video will not play. Mx player, vlc. Even videos that worked b4 will not play at all.
