Sorry this video cannot be played

Hello Blade community!

I am just a silent listener, and all I have to give in return to your marvelous efforts is a word of Thanks.

I have successfully moved my San Francisco from GEN1 to GEN2 and have successfully installed Blue Ginger v4. The ROM is sleek fast and never gave me a bug. I am not using Apps2SD, just all apps install in main memory.

First problem:

The videos recorded by LGCamera (for hacked WVGA video recording), camera does make a good sized video but it never plays, in any player. The error I get is "Sorry this video cannot be played". Even I tried to move those files to my PC and try them on VLC player but problem is the same.

Second problem (connected to first):

There are various gameloft games which crash with the same error, "Sorry this video cannot be played"

I have successfully managed to pull out smooth gameplay with no glitches/bugs for following games:

Gameloft NFS Shift

Gameloft Asphalt 5

Gameloft HAWX HD

Gameloft GT Racing Motor Academy HD

Gameloft Gangstar WC

The only problem is with Assassin's Creed Altair's Cronicles, the same idiot error, "Sorry this video cannot be played"

I heard that its flashplayer and youtube app messing up. I never used Youtube on my cellphone, neither the flashplayer. But I did install flashplayer for ARMV6 afterwards, and it worked flawless with SKYFIRE browser. But that stupid error stayed

Does anybody has a valid fix for this headache? Is it really the ROM that is messing up? Should I try another ROM or does this one lack the required codecs? I tried all the encoding methods for LGCamera and none worked. Video recorded by default camera in VGA res play without any error

I also want to fix the jittery framerate during recording through LGCamera

Also one more thing, is there a ROM which enhances the 3D Hardware acceleration for my ZTE blade?

Could you upload one of those lgcamera files that even VLC won't play?

Or could you use a tool like MediaInfo on the file to see what it shows?

A healthy lgcamera video should look something like this:

The videos I record also play back fine on the phone, as well as in VLC and even flash player in a web browser.

Thats all it is, Youtube says, its not a valid file to upload. Also 800x480 in the preview looks like a stretched 640x480 video, none of the resolutions work from LGCamera, though still images can be captured, it doesnt work with video.

I am currently downloading and testing various 2.3 builds which can handle Superuser for TypeFresh
