Is anyone else having trouble with the youtube background playback module? For me it stopped working, I've checked and there's no updates available. Whenever I was playing a video, it would show on my notification bar, and leaving the app would continue playing sound, now nothing happens, audio just stops. Maybe YouTube somehow disabled it to pressure us to get YouTube Red.
There is an update for the module sometime in February. It seems to be working for me.
Hi,
I have an an21u headunit with android 4.2. The problem is that with recent versions of Youtube I can't watch videos anymore. Everytime I open a video I get a black screen with some sort of points of light (see attachment). This happens on chrome too with some streaming sites.
How can I solve?
Anyone?
Is anyone else experiencing videos on Facebook or instagram playing choppy??
It seems when I play certain videos the first frame of the video will flash repeatedly through the entire video.. It's like the video skips a frame and you see the very first frame in its place and then keeps playing normal until it happens again like up to 10 times per video
It's also pausing on its own
Yeah exactly the same on my s8...
same here as well
Also having the same issue
having same issue, i believe it's due to verizon throttling video quality. from what i read, videos now play at 480p, if you want to unlock full HD playback, it'll coat $10 extra per month on your plan...
Strange that it only happens with FB videos not YouTube or Netflix
Is there any end to Verizon's nickel and dime to death approach?
Same
Same here, on an S8+. Video will start, play for about 4 seconds, jump back, sometime pause, then continue playing, and repeating the same skip a few times throughout the video.
I don't think it's Verizon because I have Att and having the same issue with my note 8
I'm experiencing the same thing, it's only happening on Facebook and with my Galaxy S8. There's nothing posted from Facebook or anywhere else saying they've established a fix or working on one.
Note: I'm in England and on the Three network, my home Wi-Fi connection is virgin media.

It recently started happening on my gf's S6. I've tried Verizon support and they blame fb no surprise there..
Disable the video enhancer option in advance settings. That caused me multiple video streaming issues on my note 8.
It happens to me on Wifi too, so don't think it's Verizon, also had the issue when i was with T-Mobile N7 and S7. Also i tried disabling the video enhancer like failtorespond suggested. Still get random pauses on Facebook videos. I blame Facebook's buggy app
Just tried turning off video enhancer, didn't resolve issue... on note 8
I just installed the latest beta apk from apkmirror, so far no issues with video playback no pauses. If anyone else wants to test here is the link.

This is happening to me too and it is only on Facebook. I have Note 8 on the Optus network.
I'm experiencing the same thing- Facebook video gets choppy, displaying the first frame of the video for a split second then resuming. Super annoying! Galaxy S8 here on T-Mobile, video throttling turned OFF for my account, wifi through Spectrum.
i find that I only have issues when the phone is in portrait mode when trying to watch facebook videos. Try turning the phone to landscape and see if your video plays okay. Guessing it's a Facebook app issue.
Yeah, I've been having the same issue with my Samsung S8+ since Facebook pushed a recent update, maybe a week and a half ago. It's got to be Facebook, YouTube is fine, Kodi is fine, and it's happening over both cellular and Wi-Fi networks.
When I'm in fullscreen/landscape, YouTube videos will sometimes play a black screen with audio only, forcing to me to exit fullscreen/landscape mode to trigger the video to play. Is this happening to anyone else? I have YouTube Red and usually have a Bluetooth audio and mouse connected when this happens.
I get this too and haven't figured out a way to fix it. When viewing stats for nerds, it reports a resolution of 0x1440 which I believe is the culprit. Switching orientation or minimizing video then remaximizing solves it. This only seems to happen when a video is launched while in landscape mode. Only happens with YouTube videos.
It also happened to me and I fixed it just clearing the data from YouTube app.
Hi, I am currently watching TV shows on my Kodi firestick. while I am watching television and browsing Facebook or even Instagram when a video starts playing/audio the show I am watching pauses, I have to then press play to continue the show on tv.
Anyone know why videos that start with audio (Instagram and Facebook) pause the videos I am watching on my tv/first stick?
This was not occuring with my OnePlus 7t pro
I think there may be a problem with your sound card. I also had such a problem when using discord, the interrupts stopped after sound card updates. I am currently able to follow various broadcasts such as TV or radio without freezing. canlı tv
