[Q] Video playing not working on xperia sola running CM11 - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Recently i started using CM 11 by munjeni for sola, everything is working perfectly except for the video playback. I tried everything, googled for days but i couldn't find the problem. When i open youtube app and i play a video there is sound but video is not "moving" it's just stuck on video thumbnail as if i didn't even press play, it doesnt work in play store, in browser, or in any app i could find. Does anyone have a similar problem?

that's because they could not fix the OMX, which allows video playback, and has been fixed in the Xperia U by User new maclaw, but he did not want to share their sources, so mujenji unable to carry this arrangement to xperia Go and Sola.
But as I read, percy_g2 manage to fix the OMX without sources of maclaw for xperia P, if true, I do not think it takes long before the single xperia Go and sola have this fix.

I have the same problem and I also tried everything but nothing was helpful
I hope mujenji fix it as fast as he can

[Q] Video recording in CM10 FXP201

Hello boys and girls,
I'm running CM 10 FXP201 on an Xperia Ray and can't get the video recording to work (actually it was the same under FXP152) with the only patch of CM being PDROID2.0 (and yes, I have tried while setting all apps to "real" in PDroid, still same issue).
The app seems to record (timer ticking etc.) but no video file is created although a blank file is displayed in the gallery and selecting "details" will give /storage/sdcard0/DCIM/Camera/VID_XXX_XXX.mp4, size XX.X mb etc. however the video can't be played ("Can't play this video") and no actual file can be found anywhere ("su; find / -name \*mp4"). Front and rear camera are working well for photos though.
What could be the problem?
Thanks,
B
this may help (if your problem is with 720p)

Thanks Nachospeicys but the problem doesn't seem to be related to the media_settings.xml. The search goes on but thanks anyway..

Waving strippes while playing vids. *Xperia U*

Hi guys. Firstable I want to say hello, because im new here. I will start instantly:
I've got a problem with my Xperia u. Since i've installed eXpirience v2 (before i was using stock rom and i haven't noticed any video bugs) strange thing happened to my phone :E. When i am trying to play any video using player "films" or "ES Video player" i can see semi-transparent stippes which are more visible when i'm opening gui. I'm not sure if it's caused by damaged phone or software becasue i bought my Xperia a week ago and i have installed eXpirience one hour after my phone arrived to me. I hope you will forgive me mistakes. I'm learning english yet and i can't speak perfectly. Thank you for reading my topic and i hope you will say me what is the reason of my problem and may solution.
If it's just videos, it's a software problem. Try to play your videos with MX player and if there is no changes, try to reinstall the ROM or change your ROM! I find eXperience very uglyyyyy

Seems like it's happening while playing videos only. When I'm exploring websites or menu or even playing games it looks like everyting is ok. I'll try to install new ROM and give a sign here if new soft is the solution.
Edit: MX Player is doing the same : ( I'll try to reinstall ROM and install stock for example, but i will to it tomorrow. After testing i will post here how it's working
We've got a problem. When i'm exploring internet i can see the same strippes but only horizontally and only in one part of the screen. They're also visible only at site. I can't see it on Opera bar or that bar at the top of the screen.

Sent from my ST25i using xda premium
2d rendering is unticked by default. I have changed decoder and so far seems like everything is ok while playing videos. Hope it will keep actual condition. Thank you guys and got one more question: Why is it happening when i'm exploring websites and only if there's a picture on the screen? What is the reason?

video recording while playing music not working

hello z2 users!!.
recently i bought my z2 in replacement with my old N7000 note1. i used my note 1 in recording video of myself playing guitar and at the same time playing MP3 backing track on the same phone. i have tried that features on other phone like lenovo and its working fine. i like this kind of feature where in our phone is a multi task.
when i test it to my Z2. play the music on the walkman app, minimize open the video camera. and start recording suddenly the music stops. i tried the other way around, open camera app, start video recording, it stop upon minimizing the camera app.
Now my question is:
1. is this a common issue of Z2? is it normal on sony phones.
2. is there a way that my phone can use this feature?
i hope i get reply on my queries as i am hoping to use the phone like this

That's normal on Sony phones. You can try with some other camera app like Google camera.

thanks for the reply man, i have tried the google camera but still same issue. btw i used CM rom in my N7000, its working.
Maybe CM rom of Z2 will work or it may give the same output as the stock rom.

Maybe, but you must try it. So if this function is important to you unlock your BL and try with CM.

cant play video and any video related apps crash!

just ported in for the 32bit remix, everything works fine just i cant play any video content.
1) youtube apps auto close
2) load youtube from browser , no video
3) cant play video with mp4 format on mxplayer
4) twitch auto close
ps: when i create a new folder on desktop that folder cant open. NO reaction.
is it anything i did wrong when i ported in?
thanks if there is any help.:angel::crying::crying:
Same issuse here on Vaio VGN21.
I have the same issue with 64bit version on my MSI AE2400, which has an Amd Mobility 4670 video card. I assume that video playback is still a work in progress.
But overall i am quite pleased with the overall feel of Remix OS
oh I thought I was the only one xD having this problem too on my aging Toshiba... everything else works though (for the most part)
BSPlayer is the only video playing app I tried that works. A bit clunky but functional.
Yeah same here on my Asrock Ion 330. MXplayer just doesn't play any format and VLC just crashes or just flashes and close. BSPlayer is the only thing that will play but it's very laggy.
hmmm....whenever you post any problems, its mighty helpful if you take the trouble to mention your system specs....like your video, processor...
anyways, try the boot flags posted here:

Just go to settings - applications, open your video application and grant fullscreen mode. Then it should work.

try to upgrade your laptop power or boost the adapter because somethines the CPU processor need enough power to carry that, like wise increase the ram to at least 8GB
