Hi! When browsing through Google Photos for example, all videos are stuttering, they play roughly the first second, then what looks like 1 FPS. This also happens with videos directly recorded on the device. They are plain 1080p/30fps random videos, nothing fancy. They play well in VLC, but other p…

This should hopefully be fixed by this update [image] Software Update: Fairphone (Gen. 6) - FP6.QREL.15.105.0 The Products Hi everyone, Following up on this annoucement , we’re sharing a quick update on the latest software release for Fairphone 6: A.15 MR2 (QRE…

So it’s any and all video players except VLC, is that it? On what version are you, stock or /e/, or other? What happens when you flush the cache from the app?

For me, it’s any video on FP OS FP6.QREL.15.91.0 (so, not the /e/ version). Google Photos, Reddit, Fedilab (a mastodon client), any browser (Firefox, Ironfox, DuckduckGo, Vivaldi). Clearing the cache did not help.

Is it possible you’ve deactivated something, some google component? Did you try Chrome (webview in general) or other clients (like youtube or newpipe) ?

I have FP6.QREL.15.84.0 since July 4, I use Firefox, but the problem occurs on Chrome as well. Any video basically, Also videos I took to test this problem.

I did deactivate Gmail, Google TV, Google Calendar, Google Meet, Messages (the Google app), Google Keep, and the stock YouTube app. The developer settings tell me, that I’m using the WebView implementation 137.0.7151.115.

Hallo, I have a problem when playing videos, no matter which one I play, whether it’s from Whatsapp, Insta, or adverts from apps. every video stutters so badly that it’s not even possible to play a 10 second video. When I restart my FP6 it works again without any problems, but only for a short ti…

Phone is up to date: FP6.QREL.15.91.0 Just watched some Minutes of “Jon Stewart on Who Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill Really Helps — and Hurts | The Daily Show” on YT app and on Duck Player with no problems at all. Also absolutely no problems when playing a video with “Dateimanager+ Video Player”. Al…

I have the Same Problem, any Audio or Video hast Problems working. If i turn in flight mode for some Seconds and try again, mostly IT works. IT is realy annoying.

After your comment, I wanted to check the Chrome version and it was outdated. So I’ve updated via Google Play and it worked afterwards but it failed after some time. I don’t want Chrome on my phone, so I’ve deactivated it.

Might be voodoo reasons but it works if I temporarily disable Bluetooth. :person_shrugging: Without anything connected, just toggle bluetooth.
