Hi folks,
Just want to know if someone also have the same problem and if he has succeeded to fix it :
Not always but pretty often when I watching a video on Youtube directly on the web or with the app (WiFi or even 3G) the sound becomes really jerky and the only "solution" to fix it and watch my video in a normal way is to reboot the phone (killing the running tasks has no effect...)
At the beggining I thought it was my headphones but they do work and the MP3 player also works without any problem...
Tks

I have exactly the same issue but it happens with music player as well. Especially with beats on. For example if the phone is locked and screen is off, when i press the unlock button it always jerks music that is on the background.
Any ideas? I'm on 4.0.4
T-mobile stock lollipop ROM
when I listen to music or play video it works for some time then suddenly sound stops working, when I close app and restart the app, it works fine for some time.
when I look at the player it's not frozen I can see the timer working and in the case of video, I can see the video fine just no sound.
it does not matter where the music/video is stored, it happens to files on both internal memory or MicroSD card.
it's gotten worse after lollipop update. it happened on kitkat rom but didn't happen frequently.
it's like it ran out of memory because, when I play music, it plays longer if I don't do web browsing. if i do web browsing, it stops working a lot sooner. but when I check memory usage, it says it got 1.3gb free.
anyone else have problem like this? and know solution?
Yes, I have the same problem ( LG G3 AT&T ) and the same temporary fixes. Headphone output however seems immune, or at least much less afflicted. No permanent solution found so far. Since stopping and restarting the audio source app (YouTube etc) is a temporary cure, I infer that this is a software, not a hardware, problem.
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.
Hello guys.
I seem to have a problem while playing music on my S7 Edge (SM-G935F). I'm currently on my latest Lineage OS 14.1 nightly at the time of this post creation (hero2lte 2018-04-10 build). So basically, whenever I play music on the stock Music app, the music initially plays normally and smoothly (although most of the time I have to re-tap the play button for the music to actually run). When the phone sleeps, occasionally the music has some crackling, glitching sounds, which is ear-piercing and not at all favourable. The crackling sound is a bit similar to the sound produced when the headphone jack is loosened and readjusted. In worse cases, the music pauses until the phone is turned back on.
A few minutes after stopping and quitting the music app, the phone suddenly restarts by itself without any prior signs of lag or extreme RAM usage. This usually occurs when the phone goes to sleep. The restart also happens whenever I leave my phone to sleep with a Youtube video paused. I tried clearing apps in Recents, and freeing up some RAM using Booster but none of them made any difference. It is only when after the restart the music plays normally before these problems happen again.
Other music apps seem to have the same problem as well. The issue becomes more prominent with Google Play Music, but zero problems arise with Yonder Music (though its service was discontinued now). Spotify and sometimes Vanilla Music also shows a few signs of this problem. This problem also seems to be random. Sometimes the stock Music app plays smoothly, sometimes Google Play Music plays flawlessly, and sometimes both cannot even play a whole song during sleep.
I have been googling this issue a lot but to no avail, none shows up to be the same problem as mine. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there any solution to this odd issue I'm facing? Thanks.
Edit: I saw a solution of turning off Hey Google in another thread and that worked for the freezing issue
HOwever, I still can't playback recorded videos
and I discovered that after I try to playback a video, i can no longer record
Hey fam!
I just got this phone from eBay
It came with an unlocked bootloader running what appears to be a global rom, because it says it's an edge 30 and has play store and all that jazz
I'm having an issue where the sound/video will cut out or pause in apps though. It usually lasts about a second or so. Everything still works in the background, so it's not like the phone itself is freezing. For example, the slightly animated background in Apple Music keeps moving even when the sound cuts out.
Youtube videos have the sound and video hang constantly
Any tips on how to fix this, or should I just flash a chinese rom back to it?
Edit:
I just did a test with recorded content
I was able to record a video with no issues at all. Camera feed stayed stable the entire time. Trying to play it back, after about a second or two it hangs and errors out saying can't play video
Just in case anyone else is having issues
installing https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/convert-to-global-rom.4400275/post-86861259
fixed this for me. Phones works great now
Now I just need to figure out how to get/install updates since my bootloader is unlocked
