Android :: Can't Play Videos On Samsung Moment
Jun 1, 2010
I was directed here by the Google Android Devs Group. I'm still not sure if this is the place I need to be. I've been on forum after forum and asked the same question but no one seems to know the answer or will tell me the REAL correct place to find it. I have a Samsung Moment with Android 2.1. I can not get videos that DID play on Android 1.5 to play on 2.1 now with very few exceptions. I'm not just talking about different videos with the same format, I'm talking about some of the exact same videos that did play in 1.5 will no longer play in 2.1. These are almost all AVI files. If Android doesn't support AVI natively with it's own stock media player then why or how was I able to play these videos flawlessly on 1.5? The way I always played the videos was viewing my SD card, tapping the thumbnail of the video I wanted, and it would automatically open up in the phones media player right away. Now the phone locks up and then eventually gives an error message.

I have tried converting videos to the mobile MP4 format. I copy them to my SD card on my Moment, but when I browse to that folder in file viewer on my phone.. it doesn't see the files. Has anyone had any luck playing video's off the SD card?

I have a Samsung Moment and I am having issues when converting dvd movies to play on my moment.. The real issue is it will play as mpeg 2 or 4 fine, but its the fact that it only shows up as a small rectangle and does not use the full potential of the screen. When I put sd where I saved the movie into my hero, the movie fills up the whole screen even though the dvd is wide screen..I am using DVD Fab to convert my dvds, it works fine with my hero and my ipod touch.

We are developing apps for android. One recent app has links that play videos hosted on amamazon servers. We have fromated for 3gp and or mp4.
When we run app, we get error,
Video file cannot be played
This happens on wifi, 3g, and 4g connections
Samsung epic, (galaxy s)
Do we have to intall some media server on the server perhaps? The iphone version of the app works fine.

I have purchased a Samsung Moment to use as backing for my vocals should my keyboard fail during a concert.
Unfortunately I have not been able to get it to PLAY a song and STOP till I am ready to proceed with the next item. Is there a App that will allow me to do this or is there any way I can programme the MOMENT to do this?

This just started happening recently: ill be watching videos in high quality, then all of a sudden ill click to watch another video and go through the menu to set it to high quality and only get home page and settings (high quality is supposed to be the third option).
I have connection, etc but the option just decides not to show up and the only way I got it back the last few times its done it is by turning the phone off/on. Anybody else run into this or am I missing something?

The audio/video works perfectly if I watch the recording on my phone, but when I email the video to my gmail account and save it to my computer, it opens in Media Player and there's no sound. Does anyone know how to fix this?

I thought the Moment's video player could play MPEG-4(mp4) videos, but when I browse to a website that has an mpeg-4 video, I get the error message saying the video is not supported. Here's a link to a video that doesn't play on my Moment, but will play inside Quicktime on my PC. Is there a VLC like player for android to play mp4, wmp and other assorted video files?

I'm having great difficulty getting my Android application to play videos from the SD card. It doesn't matter what size, bitrate, video format, or any other setting I can think of, neither the emulator nor my G1 will play anything I try to encode. I've also tried a number of videos from the web (various video formats, bitrates, with and without audio tracks, etc.), and none of those work either.

I just came across the limitation of VideoView of not being able to play mp4 video files that are wider than 320 pixels. I was wondering how can we overcome these limitations. I am trying to make my app as forgiving as possible, so other than using VideoViews is there another way to play these mp4 videos?

I have been browsing you tube with 2.1 and found that most of official music video is filtered in you tube mobile. and I was informed that this is general case for you tube mobile regardless of which handset you use. When I search in non-mobile you tube for videos, I can find them but I can't play them. What happens in froyo when we get flash support? Do we get unlimited access to you tube videos or no luck. I am assuming we can watch those because of flash support but correct me if I am wrong.

I have a samsung moment. My sister sends videos from her iphone to my email. I download the attachment, and the video plays on the Moment, but there is no sound.
I've tried a few of the video players on the market and they all play the video, but there's just no sound.

when accessing a website with embedded YouTube video from within the browser, I can play the video. When accessing it from WebView I haven't been able to do that. Is that not possible or is there anything I do wrong? WebView webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.content_web_view);
webView.loadUrl(" http://strobist.blogspot.com/2009/07/creative-light-launches-with-cla... "); // sample url contains videos

I love using the Engadget app on my Desire to keep up with daily news, but no matter what I try I cannot watch the embedded videos within the stories.....
The ones that link to YouTube are fine as you can choose the browser or the YouTube app.
But their native videos don't play for me. I currently get the choice of viewing through double twist or streaming media player, both of which say "Sorry, this video cannot be played".
Anyone any idea what format these endgadget videos are in? And how I can get the engadget app to choose a player capable of playing them?

I've been using the Galaxy Note 3 for the last 2 months but I still have my iPhone 5. Something that I've noticed is that a lot of videos that play on ios don't play on android. And if I can play the video on my Android then the video is much more laggy and not as clear than on my iPhone 5. These are regular websites like sports websites (nhl, nba, espn etc) or Team Stream app/website, or random other sites that have videos for mobile devices. Sometimes (with my Android) on sites, the video shows the play button, but the video still doesn't play. I don't understand this because on my iPhone 5 the videos play perfectly, load much quicker, play and look smoother, and just look more clear. Or is this just something that android lacks in its OS?
