Help Now being prompted to download video instead of streaming

[trajikka]

Suddenly I'm being prompted to download mp4 video files on my SGA where they used to stream. Can anyone tell me if there is a setting somewhere that may have been changed? I 1st noticed it when I updated a news app that streamed video before, but not after.

I can't remember if sites accessed via a web browser like wimp.com streamed mp4 video or not. But every site I try to stream video except for YouTube now prompts me to download the file.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks

If you are using QQplayer the latest update screwed it, use mobo instead, or it could be the browser you are using they all act differently with streaming

Okay... I got it working with the default android 'Internet' browser. I do have QQplayer and Moboplayer installed. When I click a web video link in the android browser, I get a prompt saying "Select an action" with 2 options: 'Internet' (which I assumed was the browser), and 'Android System' which I wasn't sure what was. Selecting 'Internet' ends up with the file being downloaded. When I select Android, I got another prompt that let me select between QQplayer and Moboplayer. Selecting them that way the the apps opened and streamed the videos fine.

However when I click on a video link in Opera, I only get a popup to download the file. I'll work on that and wait to see if anyone has feedback on that one.
