How to play videos on lockscreen of iphone 5s?

Well i have been using iphone 5s from the very first week it was launched. I am a techy and I played alot with android devices but this time i switched to iphone. 
This is a very unfortunate to say that iphone is missing such a common feature.
when I play any video and  i lock down my phone, I get a proper widget to play,next and previous song selection along with the video thumbnail where it was last paused.
But when I click those buttons,nothing happens.
I mean if video playback is not supported during lockscreen then why it is giving us that widget just like in case of audio playback where that widget is working perfectly fine.
I am looking for an appropriate technical answer for this from you guys..

Hi diesel, Thanks for your response. Yes, I have "reset, restarted, and restored." Twice! The new phone is perfectly clean acting just like the brand new one I got from Verizon. Remember it works for a minute or so then quits. Its like the circut gets hot, then quits. We are an iPhone family - three iPhone 4's and 1 iPhone 4S and 3 iPads ( 1-iPad first generation and 2 iPad 3's). Remember its just the last two models that stream video to a TV.
The HDMI dock is made by J-Tech Digital. Its made for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod. Also, remember that both our iPhone 4 works perfectly with this dock. Plays for hours, no hickups, blinks, droped sound or video.
So my thoughts are this is a 4S defect and I need to move back to the iPhone 4 to get the video-to-TV to work reliably.

  • How to Play videos on my TV iPhone 4S

    My new 4S will not stream video to my tv. I am using a HDMI dock. My other iPhone 4 works perfectly. The new 4S works for a minute then video starts to scramble picture and then stops. Looks like it should work says "sending video to TV". Also my new iPad 3 has the same problem. I've checked and double checked my system and everything is fine. I can't figure it out. So sent new 4S in for replacement. New refurbished unit does not work either. Can anyone help here?

  • How to play videos in Nokia C2-02 ?

    could u pls help me how to play videos in c2-02 mobile?
    Moderator's notes: The post was edited. A more appropriate subject is provided.

    If you want to play videos present in your pc on your phone, they must be converted to phone supported resolution.
    You have to convert the high resolution videos to low resolution 320X240, MP4 format.
    You can do so with Format Factory software for PC.
    Get it at www.pcfreetime.com
    Any further help, feel free to ask.

    What a bummer.
    Now I'm stuck with a just-about useless camera. I really need something as small as the FH1 (it's TINY).
    Hard-drive camcorders record MPG2, which I assume makes them just as useless.
    Is then MiniDV the only choice for a sub-$500 1080i/p camera that will allow me to edit footage without converting?
    If so, any tips on the smallest one out there?
    Google came up with Sony's DCR-PC55, but it's four years old and only does SD...
    Do you want good OR do you want cheap? That is the decision you need to make. Also, tiny tends to be the opposite of good.
    P.S. AIC converted it best; ProRes(Lo/HQ) left it pixelated for playback. But it takes about an hour a minute, and increases the file-size tenfold, so it's no good anyway.
    Yes, your actual editable video file is going to be 10x bigger than a MPEG-4 file. That is what you want.
    P.S. 2 "....FCP is converting your video behind the scenes which is causing all your problems."
    If that's the case, then my oldish MacBook Pro (2GHz Duo, 2GB RAM) has enough juice to play the 640x480 MPG4 clips smoothly, but not the HD ones. Could the latest MacBook (2.5/6/8GHz, 8GB RAM) could play the 1080p30 clips smoothly?
    No, you still have the same problem. MPEG-4 files are non-editable. You really need to convert to an editable format and then bring that into FCP. MPEG Streamclip is going to be your best choice.

    how to play videos in other formats other than mp4 in ipod touch.
    I have tried an app named VLC streamer. But I never knew how to use it...
    Can someone suggest anything else?

    Under "General" in iTunes Preferences, does "Play
    Videos in.." allow you to set the playback of videos
    as you desire?
    kind of. It does spawn a new window, which is great (thanks!). But it seems to be at a lower resolution - does iTunes compress further or display at lower res? What is the function that people are supposed to be able to use to use iTunes as a media center to watch movies?

  • How to play video files that are in Drop box on iPod?

    How to play video files that are in Drop box on iPod?

    I am going to have to write a technote about this, because it comes up a lot.
    Flash Player itself is designed to play SWF content as a browser plugin or as an ActiveX control (when it's IE Windows).
    There is a standalone Flash Player, but that's something Adobe  provides directly as a feature of Flash CS4 Professional. It gets installed with Flash. We have made some standalone players available on http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html, but not all (and I don't know why.  Looking into it)
    There are numerous 3rd party standalone SWF players out there though.  Some designed to just play video, others that play full SWF. I suggest a google search of 'play SWF standalone' and read the results.
    On the Mac, consumers who want to play SWF content off their desktop can use the Adobe Media Player. You can import a local SWF (and FLV and other video) and play it in AMP.  Get it here:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/mediaplayer/
    That's Mac only, doesn't work on Windows.

  • How firefox play video in youtube?

    if not installed flash player, how firefox play video in youtube?

    Unfortunately not all HTML5 videos work in Firefox, so you may still need the Flash player.
    You can find the 32 bit version of the Flash Player installer for a 32 bit Firefox version here (scroll down to Flash Player (32 bit)):

    Can anyone tell me how to post videos taken on the iPhone that are now stored on the Air on Facebook?

    Hi
    Yeah got onto that but it won't load up anything readable. It just produces a little annimation of 35mm film strip and when you click on it - nothing. All you end up doing is clicking on the X in the top right hand corner of the annimation and deleting it. Really frustrating because uploading from the iPhone is simple, but I've deleted it off that and can't get it back from the Mac to the iPone either. Seem to be trapped no matter what i do.
    Thanks for your help though

    You don't. File transfer, by Bluetooth, has never been supported on any iPhone. To import pics/videos in your camera roll, read here:
