[Q] HTC Sensation XE ViperS 5.1.0 Video Highlights

[Storm.Nova]

I'm not sure if it's just me or is everyone else who is using the 5.1.0 rom also getting the message "unable to create video because there is a problem with the original media files" when trying to play the video highlights.

My videos are 1080p mp4 and the video highlights work on my HTC One (m7).



I've tried methods suggested in other threads but it does not fix the problem. I think they only apply to android verison 4.2.2 (ViperS rom is android 4.1.2).

I've also tried modifying the ZeroEditing.apk file so that only the available musics in video highlights would recreate if I changed the music folder to another name i.e. "musicold".

Therefore the new music folder would only generate:

music_avalon.mp3
music_burbia.mp3
music_eifel.mp3
music_islandia.mp3
music_polaris.mp3
music_vega.mp3

This method did not solve the problem and I'm running out of ideas....HELP!

It works for me for videos only shot in low def, like videos shot in or below QHD (960x540) and bout 8Mbs bitrate.
It starts with 1080p of highest bitrate for me but freezes once it gets to bout 1 - 2 seconds into it if I'm lucky.
I think our CPU or GPU can't handel this part of the software as it probably relys on the hardware and it fails.

Oh, I forgot to mention that lower quality videos from downloaded sources are a hit or miss. Photo highlights works perfectly.

I get the same symptoms as you, 1 or 2 sec then it freezes. Ocassionally I get the error message but it's not consistant.

If we can get a couple more user to testify that they can't run it as well then I'm sold that the hardware is not powerful enough. In the mean time I'm continuing to do tests to see if I can find a solution.
