Please Help with streaming video

[scoast]

Ever since I upgraded my Samsung 10.1 android to 4.0.4 it stopped streaming video from most sites.

it will work with apps like netflix, but it is a brick on any browser.

Any answers?

Hi Scoast. Could be Google Android no longer supports flash video. However if you download Dolphin Browser and it's plug in Media Player you can continue to watch flash video on websites. Alternatively you can sideload the flash app. Get the Dolphin Browser here:- https://play.google.com/store/search?q=dolphin+browser
Media Player plugin here:- https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...o.player.video
Good luck!

Thanks for the thought. I have used Dolphin for years. It failed, as has 6 other browsers I have tried. The closest I got was with Firefox with the flash addon installed. I get the video without sound.

I am about to bail on Samsung....

I'm thinking with all those problems you should consider a factory reset. Something isn't right but I doubt it's the tablet.

I had the same problem on both my Samsung devices: my galaxy note and my 8.9"tablet. I use dolphin on both and after I upgraded to 4..04 no more videos streaming exactly as it happened to scoast. I fixed it though. I went on my browser settings - user agent.....I had mine set on desktop so I switched it back to Android and now I can stream like I did before the upgrade.

That sounds like a good solution. For sure.
