Hello:

I've got the commercial version of Dice player, been my favourite player for a very long time. Yesterday I switched from an older Galaxy Note 1 (N7000) to a Oneplus One (which runs Cyanogen 11S naturally), and can't play videos:

- I can open Dice player and list videos, either from the program icon or shell extension for multimedia files.
- When opening a video, there's a forced close (Dice player has stopped), the video never really gets to play.
- Videos play well with ES Video player and phone gallery viewer.

I've submitted a couple crash reports using the built-in system tool, but I'm available to do any in-depth debugging should it be required.

Thank you!

I have the same problem with my OnePlus One. All videos seem to cause a crash, regardless of container or codec.

I also had the same issue, as it seems do a lot of people on the oneplus forums. I discovered on my device at least that I can play video just fine, as long as I go into Settings -> Select Player (Select player as file extension) and choose which player to use, either "Stock Player" (which is hardware?) or "Software Player" - the crash only occurs if it is set to "Default" which of course most are by... default :)

I tried it both ways, with both an .avi and an .mp4, both started to play OK in both hardware and software. I cannot say if it will work with all file types, and I haven't watched any video all the way through yet to confirm no further issues.

But it looks like the bug must be in the code for working out which player to use, if it's set to "Default"!

Wow, that works like a charm! Thank you very much, I had switched to VLC for Android, I might try DICE again.
