Hi all just wanted to ask if anyone is having any issues using Chrome/Google for video playback. I have noticed on my handset it was stuttering/frame skipping on some videos not all. I have been using it a lot more for multimedia the past few days so only just noticed it. Did a factory reset and still have the problem.
Same thing on mine. Stutters everywhere even when typing. Didn't do a reset yet but hoping a fix can be found soon, cause it's getting sort of annoying.

Hi,
Since upgrading via OTA to 4.0.4, I have noticed that bluetooth audio is terribly delayed - by up to second or so. This makes watching films over bluetooth very offputting to say the least, and the same for playing games.
This does appear to be new to 4.0.4 - since updating I hadn't used my headset for a bit, so have only just noticed it, but I have tested with a game I used extensively (Dead Space) that pre-update was fine, and now appears to suffer considerable delay. I have tested via two different bluetooth audio systems too.
I have not yet tried a factory reset - is this the next step, or have others noticed the issue despite this? Has anyone else noticed this issue at all?
As a follow up to this, a factory reset hasn't helped.
Curiously, youtube vids seem ok, but nothing else...
It depends I have to laptops when I connect to one there seems to be a delay. On the other one the delay is barely noticeable.. it depends really

Ok, just to add to the confusion, YouTube vids are fine, but games/DVD rips aren't.
I'm now wondering if this is a load-related issue?
Ok, still more information;
Whan playing a video using MXPlayer, if I use H/W decode, everything is fine. As soon as I switch to S/W decode I get the delay.
I have also tested in GTA3, Dead Space and SpeedX 3D, all of which worked fine prior to 4.0.4, and all of which now have an audio lag.
This is almost certainly an issue with 4.0.4 as a friend has just upgraded his Xoom to 4.0.4 and now has the exact same behaviour I do.
As such, I can't imagine this will get a quick fix, but I do want to raise awareness of the issue.
Same here
Does sound like a 4.0 problem.
I have been getting the same thing since upgrading my Sony Tablet.
So since day one I've notice problems with the stock video player streaming videos. It will only let me jump to a different time once before all controls seem to be completely disabled. In rare instances I can't even move once and the controls are unresponsive from initialization. This happens streaming videos only, and the only condition that I am aware of that has changed is my phone. This didn't happen on my Mt4g.
Anyone got any hints or tips? Or am alone on this one. Its more of an annoyance than anything serious but thought I'd throw it out there.

Hi all,
I've just recently purchase a Surface RT, am still getting use to Win RT environment.
There is a slight issue, is there anyway to fix the audio lag issue?
I've tried playing 1080p videos, 720p videos (WMV, MKV, MP4) without any lag using mobile.HD. But when I switched on the subs, the audio lags behind for 5, 6 seconds. I've used the performance tips given by the Internet (disable windefender, disable animations, and stuff), nothing seems to be working.
Anyone has the same problem? Or ways to solve it?
Sounds like an app problem more than anything else. I've never tried, so I can't suggest anything better, but it's been a common discussion thread here.
I've gone through any available thread on the internet with regards to the issue, seems that no one has replied to this particular issue. I've tried many players, none of them works without the audio lag. Guess will have to wait till VLC is released.
On the plus side, that *is* coming, sometime... so there will be that, at least.
Anybody having issues stuttering issue when playing video? I am having weird video playback issue. Whenever I watch video using my S6 edge I get video stuttering and out of sync with audio. I have to restart the phone in order to fix it and after while same thing happens. Same problem with watching any video whether it is Youtube, web embedded video, or my own recorded video. This is really annoying as I watch videos a lot. I have already tried clearing cache, and fully factory reset the phone too. Help please.
thank you
steve

Same issue here, phone replaced once, now recurring. Maddening! Any fixes yet?
Anyone experiencing choppy videos or videos that keep playing audio but freeze up? Happens on my pixel xl and is universal... YouTube, my video playback, Facebook video. Not app specific.
Did you have all apps updated in the store? If not do that. If that doesn't help try a factory reset. Nothing else can be done
Yeah... Will have to try the factory reset I suppose.

Mine does that too. Noticed it during YouTube playback.
I had the same thing happening today on youtube, video would freeze but audio kept playing, only problem is I am on a Note 4 until my Pixel XL gets here. Cant speak to the other issues, curious if a reset solved it for you.
Did a restart and seemed to work itself out... At least when playing my own videos back. If it creeps back I will try the full factory reset.
Not seeing this on my xl

Exactly what happens to me on my new Pixel XL
Yep happens to me on youtube app. Not tried it on my own videos yet though. Hopefully a fix will be released soon for this.
This was driving me crazy this morning. Watching YouTube on Pixel XL and video would freeze while audio kept going. Not happening on Netflix so far. Just YouTube. I emptied the cache and cleared data for YouTube app and force stopped it. Hasn't happened since. I wonder if it's a software problem with Android 7.1?
I've been experiencing this also while watching Netflix. The video will pause for 15-30 secs with the audio continuing. Eventually it synchs back up further up in the scene. Amazon video won't play at all. Do you think this is a case of the apps not yet jiving with Android 7.1? Or possibly some bad phones? Mine is a Pixel XL from Verizon. I'm still within my 14 day to return if a bad unit. Anyone have an idea what could be going on?
I get this with videos on Twitter and FaceBook. Havent seen it with YouTube and I rarely watch Netflix. It is very irritating but can normally be resolved with a restart.
Just contacted support about this. Literally anything video playback has a 3 second stutter and then the audio end up being out of sync. Happens with my recorded videos, snap chat, Instagram, YouTube etc.
Of course after restarting no issues. I wonder what's causing it.

Getting the same thing. Reboot needed to fix it.
No one knows what triggers it?

I also have the same issue, when I take a video then play it, it freezes between 3-9 seconds with the audio still going. At some point the video restarts, and when it gets back to where the video froze, starts again with the audio in sync. See video below.
Edit: a reboot only fixes the issue temporarily, it seems to come back within a couple hours.

So bad
It's absolutely horrendous! Came from a nexus 6p never had this issue. It's happening in, literally, every app with video, sometimes it won't even play audio or video on Facebook, it does it when I'm trying to play Snapchats where I'll hear the audio but the video freezes and then the video playa really fast all at once at the end to catch up with the audio. It does it on YouTube and Netflix and Hulu as well. It even does it when I'm recording video within Snapchat! I'm disappointed that the phone has been performing more poorly than my old nexus 6p. I hope they fix it asap. I do not want to ba e to do a factory reset. I just finally got done painstakingly setting up all my apps again on this
I only have this issue with YouTube... Usually locks up when I do full screen and after it rotates it feeezes but audio continues.
I occasionally will have YouTube freeze but audio continues. Seems to be only YouTube though and I don't think it's the phone because it was happening on my Note 7 as well.
Happened to me a handful of times where video stops playing but audio keeps going in YouTube. Am I the only one that doesn't realize the video stopped until like 30 seconds later? lol
All I have to do is rewind the video a small amount and then it keeps going and doesn't happen again for that video.
