While playing video freezes sometime.It happens with any of the files.I have attached 2 bug reports of 2 different files
HI,
Looks like you were playing in HW decoder. HW decoder uses android mediaplayer API. It's known that under some unkown circumstances it may lead to such freezes. It will happen with all apps that use the mediaplayer API (Like Stock Gallery, Google Photos, etc). But, It will continue to report to the calling app as playback is in progress. Just restart & check again. It will go away.
If the problem continues, use HW+ as default. It will work.
I have the same problem with mx player using HW+.
When playing stream the image just freezes, sound wil continue.
Not for me. I'm using a Nexus 6P, latest Oreo update and it's still doing this whether in HW or HW+ mode.
I can't be certain for sure but I think I recall testing it in SW mode a year ago and it also had this issue.
