In post 1:

1. Asian Brown Flycatcher
2. Taiga Flycatcher
3. I think this is the race of Olive Bulbul (virescens) known as cinnamomeoventris, formerly attached to Grey-eyed (propinqua). I believe Buff-vented does occur in the area but the olive tones on the upperparts suggest it isn't one.
4-5. It can't possibly be Puff-throated (pallidus) this far south. White-throated? Even that species doesn't seem to extend this far south, so I'm puzzled.
 
In post 2, the Warbler is Yellow-browed (inornatus) and the Prinias all look like Plain (inornata).

In post 3, I agree with your IDs.

In post 4, 14 actually appears to be a female Black-naped Monarch.

You're probably right with Hill Blue for no. 15 but nos. 16 & 17 look more like Indochinese AKA Tickell's with that well-demarcated orange upper breast. Not sure if it occurs there.

I think you're right with Buff-breasted babbler for no. 18.
 
In post 5:

119-20. Yes, Puff-throated Bulbul.
121. Could well be Striated - rather heavily-streaked. I'm not sure this is a good species any more, though.
122-23. Both Oriental, I think.
 
In post 6:

124-25 - looks like Yellow-browed again.
126. Black-throated Sunbird.
127. yes, a Cyornis female, but I don't know which one.
128. Striated Yuhina.

Are the photos in post #7 of the same bird?
I agree the second photo (130) looks like a Siberian Blue Robin, but the first (129) seems to have shorter, dark legs and a longer tail. I would have said female White-tailed Robin for this bird: http://orientalbirdimages.org/search.php?Bird_Image_ID=91643&Bird_ID=2606&Bird_Family_ID=&Location=

No, the birds are different. Yes, andyb39 already ID these birds. He wrote
129 - female White-tailed Robin.

130 - Siberian Blue Robin.

Thank you!!
 
Yes, you're quite right John. I had initially assumed 129 and 130 were the same bird because of the adjacent frame numbers and didn't look terribly closely. I can't take credit for the ID as I posted the images on a FB forum, and a contact agreed with Siberian Blue Robin for 130 but said 129 looked like White-tailed Robin "having a bad day".

One Thai birder thinks the White-eye(s?) is Japanese and another thinks all the Cyornis flycatchers are Hill Blue. I communicated all this to Oleg in several PMs as there had been no other interest in the thread.
