Hi,
I am using Xperia Ion LTE.
Recently I've flashed cyanogen mod11 kitkakt 4.4.2 sirius port v2 using this link>>> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2682782
The rom works great though contains several issues.
Major one is the video playback. Youtube works fine. But the videos I used to play while using jellybean, those exact same videos are not starting at all. As the new xperia movie app is provided with the rom, when i try to play it shows "cannot play the video", however sometimes it play two or three videos and if i try to play those exact videos later it again says it can't.
My point is, i won't say the videos doesn't play at all. It play but momentarily and refuses the same one to play later.
How can i play videos like before? Any suggestion? And thumbnails doesn't shows according to videos.
Urgent, help please.

Hi, I recently noticed that when I'm playing videos on youtube, it only plays in HQ mode and not in HD. Is there a way to make the ARC S play youtube videos under HD ? I tried searching and didnt find any solid answers. Thanks in advance.

Hey there guys, I have an LG 42LS5700 TV. Ever since I changed to different roms with the new Cybershot camera app the videos I play on the TV only have audio and pictures don't load. What seems to be the issue?
My phone's an LT15i/Xperia Arc, so far only stock recorded videos play when thrown to the TV, Pictures in general don't load. Music and Downloaded videos play fine.
I've searched and found no answers. What do you guys think?

That's the problem with custom ROMs.
Okay as the title suggests
Previously I had rooted my friends Xperia Arc (Ignore my signature, that indicates my phone) and here is what was done:
Unlocked Bootloader
Flashed Vengence Kernal
Installed Xperia Ultimate HD 3.0.2
So it worked
Everything was fine, smooth and all but my friend was happy but he noticed something
When he recorded a video it recorded fine, saved
But, when he went to the Album app or the camera app and went to view videos the videos he recorded were there
But when tapped on to play, it causes the whole app to crash
We tried everything and i told him i would check it out here
So any fixes or what to do please list it
When I get my hands on my friends Arc I can do it

Well, I have exactly the same issue with you (with my friend's phone too, lol).
After research, I found a work around solution, what I could suggest you is please install another app to watch video .
Hello everyone. At first I have to say that english isn't my first language so please be understanding.
I've just bought new Note 3 and was pleased with it, until I've found that something is wrong with playing videos. When I try to watch some videos(for example anime) online, it is stuttering. Audio is ok but video lags like hell. Lets take videos from www*auby*no/files/video_tests/ (sorry I had to change "." with "*" because I was unable to post link to another site )as an examples.First I tried playing them online using official player and MX Player(using hardware decoding and software decoding). Then I downloaded them and tried playing again. While playing online using official player, every movie except Shrinkage and Shrinkage 2 was choppy. Playing them with use of MX Player with H/W resulted int the same thing(video lags), but when I changed to S/W everything run smoothly(except first two movies). Next I downloaded them and again tried to play them with official player, and guess what? Everything was ok. The same was with MX Player with H/W and of course S/W.
I also tried to play movies online with worse resolution (480p) and they were ok but other videos with 720p were stuttering. I also tried to play video in 720p using mobile-friendly online player and had lags, but when I played THE SAME video using not mobile-friendly online player(with usage of Flash Player) it was ok...
So dear friends I don't know what to do so I am counting on your help, because I really want to be able to watch movies online on this badass screen.
Try DicePlayer. Still one of the best players IMO, and one of the few that can play videos directly off of Windows network shares (though I use ES File Explorer to browse and Dice to play)
No stutter here playing even 10+Mbps 1080p h264 over wireless from samba shares on my NAS. (Haven't tried 20Mbps yet)
Well, I've tried this DicePlayer and it is really nice but only with playing videos where I can choose which player to use. If I, for example want to watch a movie on dailymotion I can't choose if I want to use MxPlayer or DicePlayer or something else. I have to watch it using dailymotion player (right?) and using these kind of players make videos stutter. That's my problem.
Note 3 has a problem. Verizon and ATT versions also show stuttering when streaming video. I have it in YouTube and other videos that streamed from a website.
We shouldn't have to use third party players, especially when it's not even an option (can't choose one) or in the case of youtube it's an app. This is nonsense. Samsung needs to address this issue. How can we contact them? I've been trying to figure that out.

I never said it was every handset. But I've seen complaints regarding this issue on t mobile, verizon, att and the international version. I haven't checked others.
Try any hd video. They show it the most. But if you don't have the issue I don't expect you to see symptoms.
Try another browser with java support like maxthon

Ok. I've noticed another thing. Stuttering happens only with films in HD. For example I've played some film from vimeo in (probably) 480p and it was fine, but after playing it in 720p lags occurred. Also I've tried maxthon but it didn't help.
So, to sum up everything for now, stuttering occurs when I try to play HD films online, where I can't choose players like DicePlayer or MxPlayer and have to use "built-in" online players (for example on Dailymotion or Vimeo) and also when I try to play films online (which I can play using players on my note) using official player or MxPlayer with H/W or H/W+.
I talked to Samsung via Chat and the guy said he's never heard of this issue. I find that amazing since I've seen the complaints all versions of the Note 3.
We shouldn't have to watch videos in 480p and we shouldn't have to switch browsers. All this does is try to avoid running into a problem that shouldn't be there to begin with.
It's a high end device with a low end problem. Something is wrong. I suggest you all that are having issues to tell Samsung about it. Call or chat or do some type of communication.
I've talked with someone from samsung via live chat and he said that if phone doesn't have problem with playing films on sd card it isn't problem with phone itself. He also said that he will pass it to proper department. Also doesn't this problem seem like this one? Maybe it's not problem with note 3 but with JB 4.3?
Yeah you're right, can't stream some HD videos, especially on vimeo. Youtube is fine for me on full hd. Anything downloaded plays perfectly though.
I've had this issue on two different T-Mobile notes. HD videos in any browser for me stutter. I'm hoping its software related and can get patched soon.

I hope that it will come out soon if it's software related, because if it was hardware related I would have to change it and it restrains me for now from rooting it.
Hi,
I am having serious issues playing videos on the device. The stock players (photos and movies apps) won't play anything I get through whatsapp (mostly sent from iOS devices), many vids from YouTube, nor the sample videos which were pre-loaded on the phone (?!?).
I downloaded MxPayer and VLC, which mostly solved the problem, but I'm still having problems with the YouTube app. In case it helps, here is an example of a video I can't watch (my one-year old's favorite): http://youtu.be/VMl0GbiVEyA.
The phone is brand new, arrived 4 days ago. I'm running the latest firmware (Kit Kat, build 14.4.A.0.108), which the phone prompted me to install. It is not rooted and I hope to keep it that way, at least for a while.
Any ideas? Is anybody else experiencing this?
Thanks!

I use vlc as only videoplayer (deleted all others), vlc plas all videos for me. The video you mentioned I can't see here in Germany due to copyright issues.
Thanks, but what about YouTube? How do you force the YouTube app to use VLC as the default player?

i use firefox as browser and use youtube from there. I don't use the the you tube app.
Ah, ok. Well, if anybody has a solution, that would be great. I really like using the app, would be a shame to have to use the browser.
I'd do full wipe of the Phone and start over by flashing a ftf. Z1 Compact Resource Thread -|-Rooting-BL Unlocking-Firmware & More...
Thanks, but as I said, not rooted, and trying ypto avoid going down the road of endless tweaking and customization.
I downloaded a few alternative YouTube players, and they all work fine. I'll choose one and see how it goes. Want to know if I can go " average Joe stock" user this time around.

You don't need to be rooted to flash your Phone, the flashtool would be pointless otherwise. Install the flashtool, flash a ftf, done, it's as simple as that.
