Videos are laggy after update - X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

All the videos (youtube, hotstar, facebook etc) in my mobile are very laggy and looks like they are running in slow motion after last update (I think it was December security patch).
Is anyone facing same issue? any help?
thanks

You tried factory reset?

I had the same problem after flashing one of the "optimized" stock based roms from here. I had some other annoyances too, so I decided to start fresh and installed the offical stock version for my region from:

Now the problems are gone.

I have stock android only.
Have not tried factory reset yet, will try that.
thanks

Browser crashes when playing flash videos full screen

I get an exclamation work on videos when I watch flash videos on either Firefox beta / AOSP browser when watched in full screen.
I have latest flash 11.1.115.20 sideloaded. Anyone facing similar issues? I am trying to watch videos from watchop.com [ If anyone could verify if they can watch videos from this site and let me know is it just me would be great ]
Using PA 2.2 with latest faux kernel.
Yeah, i get it everytime, nomatter what site i am on
Gets a bit annoying
I flashed the CM10 with Tablet UI ROM by z1gackly and it works awesome now, flash flawlessly on full screen on asop browser :victory:. Dunno what the issue is with PA 2.2.
I have that problem with the version of flash you are using.I use an older version and it works fine full screen.Try installing the older flash version 11.1.115.12. It works best for me with the browser.
James-NC: The is no issue with latest flash, I am using latest one and it is in fact better much smoother. I flashed a different ROM and issue got fixed.
The newer versions always crash if I go to full screen on most websites.I tried several different versions and the old one always works full screen.Not saying it will be the same for everyone just giving the OP an option that works best on my tablet.
The new one worked great before the jb upgrade but I have not been able to get it to work full screen since the upgrade.I am running stock.

N9005 Lollipop roms video playback issue

I rooted my N9005 yesterday and have tried a number of roms, such as the roms taken from Note 5 / S6 Edge (Norma, DarkLord roms 5.0 and 5.1). I've also just tried a custom rom taken from official Note 3 Lollipop firmware.
All have the following issue : Netflix will not play any video - it keeps saying loading. BBC I player's video is choppy and out of sync. Youtubes 720p 60fps pauses frequently and 1080p 60fps freezes the video completely (not audio).
I've flashed back a KitKat custom rom and the video problems are gone.
Any suggestions on what might be wrong. I'm guessing it makes no difference but it's a Vodafone Australia handset that I'm using in the UK with EE (using the UK country code when installing rom).
Did you flash the Lollipop ROM freshly? I mean after a complete wipe?
I've used Team Win Recovery Project and each time completely wiped the phone each time. The Kitkat rom I used without problem was the Alliance rom. I am just about to try and flash a Lollipop 5.0 rom from Alliance - not sure if the same problem will be there.
[edit] Exactly the same issue using the Alliance 5.0 rom... choppy iPlayer not in sync, and continuously loading on Netflix.
I'll put it back to Alliance rom for 4.4 for now. Can't live without Netflix!
Other things I've tried:
Installing the 5.0/5.1 roms using CWM rather than TWRP doesn't solve the video issue. (CWM Aroma Installer fails to start, so been using TWRP on roms that use Aroma).
Neither does clearing caches through recovery.
Neither does enabling/disabling NU player/Awesome Player in developer settings.
On Alliance 5.0 rom I found liboemcrypto.so in system/vendor/lib, deleted it, cleared cache in recovery/rebooted, no difference.
On DarkLord N5 rom I deleted liboemcrypto.so.bak I think it was called, which I found in system/vendor/lib/ (which i think is the backup file).. liboemcrypto.so wasn't there to delete in the DarkLoard N5 rom and there was no file in system/lib like that. It didn't make a difference.
Could it have anything to do with it being an Australian handset, anything to do with the modem or some video kodex/player thing not getting updated/flashed properly. I'm just making stuff up now.

[Q] Lag/freeze during video playback

Hi,
I have a problem with my S4 i9505 : for few days, it's impossible to watch videos on my phone without lag or freeze...
When I play a video from Youtube or phone internal storage, the video plays for few seconds and then, the image freezes and the sound continues...
Next, the video restart but the image and the sound aren't synchronized.
It's very boring!
Is there a fix for this problem?
Thanks in advance!
I have that problem too and the only fix seems to be rebooting the device every (or every other) day.
I'm also having this issue... anyone aware of a fix?
What rom are you guys running?

Hi,
At the moment I am running the stock ROM of the s4. i9505.
I am NOT currently rooted and the baseband version is I9505XXUHOJ2 - this is the latest version for BTU.
A reboot does fix the issue for a few hours but it can get irratating - I've tried a factory reset and another flash in Odin but it hasn't fixed it.
Thanks.

Have you tried a different player?
Maybe it's done kind of memory leak.
It's more to do with videos that play through apps such as the Youtube, BBC News videos (through the app) etc which lag so I don't see how a different player would help?
I have this too, it is on every app.
The video stops for 1 second while the sound is still playing in the background and then the sound lags.
Tried delete cache from recovery but then my phone crashes.
Touchwiz...
Then it's a touchwiz problem. Thank samsung for that. I use youtube on an aosp custom marshmallow rom and videos play just fine.
Which rom? Lol
There is only one aosp marshmallow rom, and that is the one from jdc team. Every other rom is some kind of cm13 variation or based on cm13.

CM13/MM Netflix Loading Issue on N910C

Could anyone of you guys kindly help me. I first flashed the unofficial Bliss rom based on cm13 first on my n910c. It was stable enough for daily use, maybe a bit rusty on kernel performance end but nothing too drastic. I however found one of my favourite and must have app Netflix would refuse to work on it whatsoever (loading spins forever when trying to play any movie/tv show). I have searched all over the net to understand why and now I also flashed this cm13 image to see if it could work in this rom. Result same issue!, I did the following and achieved no success
1) cache/dalvik clean and rebooted (the obvious) ALSO full factory wipe as well
2)a suggestion to rename/delete a certain liboencrypto.so
3)change my product model in build.prop
4)try a old xposed hack for tricking the app to think you are on unrooted phone
None of the above worked. I then flashed a lolipop simplerom5c image just to check if this issue is universal for all roms and I was wrong. Netflix ran with no issues in this one which uses a custom kernel and full rooted.
NOW MY actual question (pardon me for the boring and lengthy prologue)
Would flashing a custom kernel to CM13 for n910c possible? if so which one could anyone suggest? AND could it possible solve the dreaded Netflix issue?

Screen auto-rotation

I know this is a mostly dead platform, but figured it was worth a shot to ask. My Trek 2 stopped auto-rotating the screen awhile back while it was stock. I had not updated in awhile, so I tossed in an AT&T sim to get it up to date. I did not notice it at first (I use the tablet intermittently) but I am almost certain that update coincided with the screen no longer rotating.
After several months and being tired of manually rotating the screen I took the time to put AOKP on it. Part of my desire was hoping to resolve the screen rotation. It did not. But, I did see a comment in one of the ROM threads where it looked liked someone had the identical issue and it might be related to the software or a minor difference in hardware. Does anyone have any ideas?
Some K88 tablets' auto-rotating only works with MM, not Nougat. Check your current firmware. It will be 7.0.1 or something above 7.0.0, not 6.X.X
The only solution is by flashing K88 back to MM. Sometimes, directly flashing B33 still may not work. So I recommend to flash B31, and then upgrade to B33, but not again to Nougat. Once update to Nougat, then the auto-rotating will not work again. I tried all custom firmware(nougat + oreo), but my K88 auto-rotating is not working with them.
To flash back to B31, you need to install TWRP using jasminetool. And then directly flash B31 stock firmware.

Thanks for chiming in! Any idea what the limitation is? I have LineageOS installed right now, it runs great other than the rotation issue. It looks like all of the custom ROMs are Nougat based, is my only option to go back to stock to get auto-rotation back?
