I have read about audio/video out of sync, but this issue that I am having since I have bought the device is audio cut-off in recorded videos for a couple of seconds. The video starts playing but audio track seems to be missing for a couple of seconds and then plays back. I have tried playing recorded videos on laptop, uploading to YouTube but issue remained. Though this is cut-off, YouTube reports video may be having audio/video sync issues.

I'm currently running my phone SGH i777 on Unnamed rom v1.3.0, i'm experiencing some problems on video playback on my current rom. The video stutters while playing less than even a second but happens quiet constantly on the phone. I wanted to know is the problem with the hardware of the phone or does the problem exist on this rom.?

No problems here - but it depends on the video. Video that uses certain features that are part of H.264 High Profile can do weird things.
I am on UnNamed 1.3.1 and hadn't tried video playback since I installed so I pulled up Mobo player and tried some movies on my SD card. Movies with dolby digital and two channel AAC would sometimes close as soon as they started although they would play after I tried a few times. Video without dolby digital seemed to play first time. I looked at the Mobo options and turned on "soft decoding". I haven't got a close since then. Video playback is very smooth (32GB class 10 uSD card). My videos were encoded in Handbrake as H.264 using the AppleTV2 setting. I only use AAC for movies that don't have much of a soundtrack.
These were videos .mp4 that i downloaded using tubemate and played them on my phone..In software decoding mode the're working fine in HW dec mode stutter while playing, so does that mean that the default video player on this rom is unable to play back these videos with the support of the hardware..?
Hmmm so I shot a couple of videos from my S3 today and transferred them to my Macbook Pro (09 Model, 13inch) running Lion, with all OS X updates installed.
I shot the videos on full HD 1080P.
When I opened the videos on my mac using the default Quicktime Player app, I noticed that there were intermittent "robotic" sounds, kinda like garbled noise heard several times during the video.
I tried opening the video using two other video programs- MX Player and VLC Player- an no "robotic" garbled intermittent sounds!
I tried to isolate if it could be a problem with my external SD card, so I tested by shooting another video but using the Phone memory- but same symptoms.
I don't think anything is wrong with my S3 as the videos will play with no sound issues using other video programs, but a bit dumbfounded about the Quicktime issues.
Anyone else noticed this? Possible causes?
If you tried two other players and none of them exhibit the same symptoms, then the problem probably lies with your Quicktime or your Mac.

Have you found a solution?
On my mac, in quicktime: garbage but at least the video auto rotates. Using MX player, video plays fine but not rotated! Arg!!!
On windows: playback fine, but no rotate either! Grrr!
Hi,
I am running my SII on 4.0.1 and I am very frustrated with its performance on video recording and playback (the problem existed on the 2.3 OS version too).
Bascally if I try to watch a clip on YouTube (does not matter if I am on wifi on 3G) the movie will start showing nicely but very quickly the sound will continue to run smoothly but the image will freeze and then will jump back to sync with the audio and then freeze again etc. - so you can't see a nice smooth playback. It does not matter if the video is fuly downloaded.
If I record a movie using the camera - I will get a choppy video with freezes. This is really frustrating and I wonder if other have experience the same problem and more importantly if there is a solution for this annoyng problem.
Thanks in advance,
Itay
Hi guys I usually record video alot on my phone and I recorded some for our trip but when I tried playing it back it had very bad sync issues. I copied the videos on my PC and it played fine. Anyone else have this problem? is there a fix?
P.S. I used VLC and still bad playback.
Hi xda!
I have a weird question that i haven't been able to find the answer for so I thought I'd ask here. I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, SM-925V, android version 5.0.2, rooted with stock rom. I have had this phone for at least 2 months and this problem just started happening:
My phone randomly pauses video and audio for no reason. For example I was watching Netflix last night in bed with nothing touching the screen. The phone's just sitting there and pauses playback. This is not a streaming issue,
This is what I've figured out so far:
1) I didn't touch the edges to accidently pause playback. The phone was just sitting there with nothing around its edges. Also, since it pauses audio playback while the screen is off, it can't be that
2) It's not a streaming issue, since it also has the same effect with locally stored videos and audio, like MX Player, and it also pauses audio playback on Mort Audio Book Player and Play Music when the screen is off.
3) The only apps I recently installed were Reddit and Imgur apps, can't see how they'd cause a conflict. I have also not updated my phone after which it would have started causing these errors.
Does anyone have any ideas?

You could perform a bug report and a log cat. Both of those could give you clues as to what could be going on. Just make sure you don't share the bug report.
