Description

[[e-mail] [:onecyrenus]]

The general repro for this is simple..

Build a new version of gaia:

./build.sh gaia && ./flash.sh gaia
Load the video app on your b2g device. 

Then copy gizmo2.mp4 to /mnt/sdcard/videos

This is a Samsung SII device, running the latest version of b2g. 

This needs to be verified on a new device before a dev looks at it

Do webm videos work using the same approach?

Comment 3

[[e-mail] [:onecyrenus]]

Chris WebM videos work using this approach. 

inside gaia you just need to make install-test-media 

To install the gizmo2.mp4.

Chris Double, should this be assigned to you?

So to give an update on where we are at now. 

08/27/12 -Otoro Daily build
---Mp4 video playback is occurring.  However there is significant horizontal banding through the video content, making the content not so watchable, but a definite improvement over where we were at last week. 

I think possibly this bug will end up with edwin flores ?

Is it possible to get a screenshot or photo? Have you got kernel update 7 applied? I'm assuming not since it just crashes for me on kernel7. With http://cd.pn/hwfix.patch applied I get playback on kernel update 7 but stuttering audio.

I believe this should allow you to view, one video is the gizmo video, another is big buck bunny. 

I am assuming i have kerenel update 7 applied by virtue of the e-mail i received..

I forwarded the contents of the e-mail to you, please respond on that thread if you don't feel the information is correct.

With bug 791164 and bug 791167 workarounds applies I can play H.264 videos (gizmo2.mp4) in the video app.

Comment 10

[cajbir (:cajbir)]

Changed dependency to bug 759506 as that's our main target to achieve video playback in the video app now.

This bug, as written, is already fixed.  \o/
