Volume Up/Down Keys Pauses Videos, Games - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I searched the forum and I couldn't find anything related. Maybe I used wrong keywords, if so, I'm sorry.
My Xperia Z1 gives me headache when I try to adjust volume during youtube videos, facebook videos, games, or streaming music from soundcloud. It just pauses game, videos, music then I have to resume them. When using whatsapp, I noticed that same thing happens. It resets chat window you're on. And idea what causes this? It wasn't there before. Now here.

dunce... flash player in froyo usage

I just don't get it.
It plays videos but I cannot get it to interact period.
Most videos I have encountered on the internet will pause when clicked.
I cant' 'tap' on the video to pause it and I cannot interact with the seek or buttons on the player either.
Simply put, the 'container' with the flash player in it never takes the focus.
I can tap the screen twice to get the phone to center on it, but that's it.
What am I doing wrong here?
Is it meant to be non-interactive on phones?

Keep youtube buffer?

I sometimes watch youtube video repeatedly (music video and stuff)
On iphone, I was able to buffer the video once and there would be no need to buffer again when you select to play from the start or any section of the video as long as you don't let it play all the way to the end.
Is there anyway to do the same on android phones?
It seems every time I move the cursor, it will re-buffer from that position even though I have already buffered the whole video.
Anyone know the solution?

Questin about multitasking.

Hi there,
I want t o be able to play a youtube video and browse the internet at the same time. But every time I leave youtube either through the application or through the browser it stops working.
I tried through FireFox mobile but no dice even using an extension called phony.
and help?
Also I managed to use an MP3 as my incoming call ring-tone.
Is it possible to do the same for the incoming messages?
I guess that's a "problem" of the youtube app which stops playing as it is minimized.
either that or android just needs the Ram for surfing
you could use ringdroid
Could it be im using it wrong?
Because it works with the music player which comes with the phone..

Thx for the app by the way.

Video uses a LOT more resource then audio does so it makes sense that the music player would continue while the video player would not. Also I know that app developers went out of their way to enable music to remain playing in the background of other apps. Video? Not so much.
I tested it on my own phone. When I switch to a different app, the YouTube app pauses and loses signal. When I return to it, it has to search for the video again.

[Q] Screen flickers while playing videos

I have a Samsung Galaxy S Advance i9070. Off late if I try playing videos one after the other the screen starts to flicker. The first video plays fine, flickering starts when i play the second video, then I have to bring up Task Manager and clear the memory. This happens only while playing videos, I tried the VLC player also but result is the same. 90% of system resources are free so it can’t be a lack of system resources that’s causing this. Is it a hardware issue, I re installed the stock ROM but even then same result.
I have this problem too but it seldom happens.

In my case ti happens every time I play a video, no exceptions.
Which player are you using to view the videos?
People say I'm crazy, but the voices in my head say I'm just fine.

[Q] App specific sound while playing multiple videos

Hope someone can help me out with this. One of the main things I love in this puppy, is that I can watch multiple videos at once. I was wondering if there is a way to control the volume for each video. For example, watching two games and be able to listen to just one game instead of both games. Thanks
