I also tried installing Open Camera and shooting a video on it, and I got the same failure, even on videos I recorded after manually choosing Open Camera’s h.264, HEVC, and 3GPP format options (.webm failed to record off the bat). Needless to say, wiping the cache partition did not resolve the problem. After I reiterated that the software appears to be current, he pasted a generic boilerplate “wipe the cache partition” message and then marked the issue as “resolved” and left. The software checker reports being up to date.Ī Samsung chat rep advised that this is a known issue but that it should have been fixed by some prior update. They have the baseband version G970U1UES3DTDD, the kernel version 4.14.117-18242889 (May 14), and the June 1 security patch. The factory-unlocked phones showing the issue are currently on the AT&T network in the US. I believe this bug started with an update at some point in the last 9 months, but I can’t confirm that or pinpoint the exact build where things went wrong. Player software and ffprobe report that the moov atom is missing from the files. While playback is still possible on the phone itself, media players on other devices - across a number of Linux, Windows, and cloud players - are uniformly unable to play the videos. Videos shot on the G970U1 (and I’ve tried two separate phones) are being saved in incorrectly-built.
