No Video/Black Screen - sharky13 - 2014-09-11

I have XBMC Gotham on Quad core Android 4.2.2 set-up (MyGica). I am getting No Video/Black screen on One App Only "Filmy By Nature" Version 2.5.6 (by AJ Add-Ons). The video streams but plays only audio. I am able to see video (and hear audio) flawlessly in all other apps (incl. mashup, cartoonhd, youtube, ted etc.) I can also play any local media SD or HD.

I have looked at the wiki link below and tried the steps (changed decoding method to software) but it did not help.

wiki link: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Android_FAQ#No_video.2Fblack_screen.2C_only_sound.2C_when_playing_files
Link for the Add-On : http://superrepo.org/plugin.video.filmibynaturex/

Has anyone facing the same issue ? Please Help !!

My Set-up
Android Box : MyGica AT582
CPU : ARM v7 Processor rev 1 (v7I)
Android Version : Kitcat - 4.2.2
XBMC : Gotham 13.2

My Settings
XBMC Video > Acceleration Setting :
Decoding Method : Hardware Accelerated
Allow h/w acceleration (amcodec) : selected
Allow h/w acceleration (libstagefright) : slected
Allow h/w acceleration (MediaCodec) : not selected

This sounds like an issue that would be best addressed by the specific add-on developer.

I have the same problem on all video add-ons. I'm just getting audio/ black screen. I install and uninstall for many times and have the same problem. My set-up box: ANDROID BOX, CPU: Arm cortex-A9 Quad core, GPU: Mali-450 October-core. Anyone can help me a bit?

Go into system change system setting to advanced and goto acceleration only keeps libstagefright codec checked and uncheck amcodec and mediacodec reboot xbmc should work after that.
