Dean,

Try out the BS Player.  We have had most success with that player.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bsplayer.bspandroid.free&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS5ic3BsYXllci5ic3BhbmRyb2lkLmZyZWUiXQ..

I am hoping the built in player gets better.

Also, make sure you are running the latest fixes.  There was an issue a
while back where HLS wasn't working, but is fixed now.  Make sure it is up
to date.

BTW, are you running the apk we provide, or are you running right from the
code?

I am hoping to put a new download out soon as we have made some great
strides on other functionality inside the app.

Thanks,
Dan
