Netflix under CM12 Loading video for ever

[treobrian]

Anybody have Netflix working under Voodik's CM12?

I can log in but when I try to play anything it sits on Loading and never loads. I'm on a good fast internet connection, tried 2D hardware acceleration, tried the old media player. Did not try the Xposed Samsung fix. I have the 16 Gb eMMC. Often running out of space when doing updates. Could space be the problem?

Any logcat output from the terminal app?

Here is a logcat file. Netflix started a little after 20:16. Hope it helps, I read it through but I don't understand it!

Are you in the US? Or are you going through a VPN?

Your down under, are you trying to use a VPN?

Here is the relevant part of the log

Code: Select all

02-01 20:16:23.759 E/AudioTrack(5415) :	AudioTrack::set : Exit 02-01 20:16:23.798 F/libc (5415) :	Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV), code 1, fault addr 0x0 in tid 5526 (MediaCodec_loop)

What it seems like is Netflix is trying to play the audio in a format that isn't supported and it's crashing.

48000hz is the requested format but I think it should be 44100hz, at least this is how it is in KODI. Otherwise there are issues with sound.

Thanks for the reply. Australia has Netflix now, so I am not using a VPN.
I have Kitkat on another eMMC and Netflix works on that except for the green and red stripes that elsewhere on this forum is thought to maybe be a kitkat Mali driver issue. I was hoping that CM12 might solve that problem but I guess it has problems of it's own.

I'm trying to revert the kitkat emmc back to jellybean which apparently has a good driver, but am having my usual problem of destroying the boot stuff when I dd the image, fix that with the sdcard repair and repeat. I eventually win that battle!

Well I have got Jellybean going again and can confirm that Netflix runs fine on the U3 under Jellybean. So CM12 will have to be shelved
