        Since last fridays rc-update I can't play video files from the gallery or internal storage. When I try, I get a warning that the video file is not supported.
        I tried to change channel and to reflash the system but it didn't work.
        Any ideas what is wrong and what I can do?

          You'll have to give more information.
          What phone/tablet are you using and when was the last time you were successful in watching video ?

          If the latest RC is responsible as you imply, switching channel to stable should fix it and therefor prove your theory.
          If you have a Nexus 5 this is a known issue for quite some time now due to hardware acceleration.

            Sorry, I'm using a FP2 and never had any problems watching videos in the last year. I can't say when I last watched videos but the only thing that happend in between was the update on friday.

              On RC channel updates are weekly...
              Try to switch to stable and try again. Have you checked the opened issues?

                @TobsEnd I had similar issue with FP2 some time ago. Couldn't figure why, happened after update, persisted after channel change (stable, rc) and next OTA updates didn't fix the video playback. I couldn't play videos for several months.

                The video issues were fixed after complete UBports reinstall (with wipe) using the installer.

                I hope it will fix your issues too.
