Reeeeaaaallllyyyy? Where's the link?
this most likely depends on the framerate you are using.
I challenge you to run a divx/xvid video encoded on 25fps (PAL) or 23.97fps (NTSC) or 29fps (NTSC TV) on your polaris.
You will notice the difference
It's crap....

No apostrophe needed for a plural. I figured since it's in bright red capitals and included in every post you make, you'd perhaps want to know.

Yeah that's like saying CD's, ROM's, Nobodylikesaknowitall's....
Maybe he meant "driver is not included"
In which case, the apostrophe is perfectly appropriate.

Please stop going offtopic
@nushuth
If you're not sure, then why post those specs
With what did you encode the video's and what settings ? Then you should know the framerate.
whats the difference between tcpmp and divx. i have tcpmp and flashvideobundle and my streaming works perfect on youtube clear clean and bright
DivX player
Works fine .. videos (900M file, 664x268, 24 fps, 112kbps) ... very much better than the shipped player

because i encoded by myself this test videos and i have no reason to encode in a different way. (i.e.: i'm using always this settings for "mobile" videos)
now i'm sure, it's [email protected] PAL
Is it me or does youtube quality sux with the tab? I even made the default play at hq ans it still sux. Is there another setting that I'm missing?
Have you downloaded the latest youtube app?
Over wifi and 3g, or both?
I use Youtube Mate and the quality is fairly good over wifi, if over 3G it sucks yeah, unless if I download the video in hight quality format.

i only use wifi (don't have a 3g plan). i've seen similar threads on this but some people say their youtube hd is great.
im have'n this same issue... over wifi aswell... youtube on my evo looks way better
I am having issues on youtube as well.. But not the app.
When I play youtube using either the browser or dolphin hd,
They both play fine but if I press the full screen on the flash video that is
Playing, it would play in full screen but very stuttery. When I do the same on my evo
4g, it plays the full screen video from the browser just fine. No stuttery.
Both connected to wifi btw.
Any ideas?
it looks better on the evo because the screen on the tab is much higher resolution

but is the stuttering videos on my tab caused by resolution difference as well?
I think the stuttering is more an issue of adobe's flash being resource hungry than anything. I see similar behavior when playing flash video on most netbooks/nettops, some older desktops and even some modern low spec laptops. Adobe flash is just horribly inefficient with resources.
Hopefully with gingerbread there will be more options.
Are you able to try playing it in the browser instead of via the youtube app?
i seems to get better video quality when i go to mobile web site. instead of using the app

Yes i had smooth 720p playback from the youtube mobile site until now as well. But suddenly it opens up the video player instead and now the quality is horrid. Does anyone have an idea how to fix this?
Edit: it is still working in the stock browser and xscope, just not in miren.
seriously!
Are you guys totally blind?!...Or hired by samsung/google to cover up this flaw?
Yes, I'm talking to the people that actually can't see the problem.
We are missing out bigtime on video quality as long as this doesn't get sorted. And no living soul wants to be forced over to the stock browser for anything.
Follow 3-step procedure to get enlightened:
1. Go to youtube.com with the stock browser(yes, the stock browser sucks, but it illustrates the problem). You will be directed to a mobile youtube site, search for "720p" or something and find a nice hd video, now play it and watch it for a little while. You will see that it looks great! And it shows that the tab has some nice potential.
2. Open your youtube app(old or new version, problem affects both). Find the exact same video and start playing. Even make sure that you have the high quality setting on.
3. Compare!
Now you should come to this conclusion: stock browser actually wins and youtube app loses
If you can't see the difference you really really need to get glasses. Watching youtube using the stock browser is crispy clear, and the youtube app makes the screen look frosted in comparison.
My theory:
The youtube app is not made for such a high resolution screen just yet. While the stock browser is.It totally sucks and should be fixed asap!
It really truly looks 100% identical to me. Watched Star Trek 720p trailer from stock browser and youtube app. Look the same. Tmobile.

Are you 100% sure? Because it's a major difference on my tab. And I've tried countless videos. I can spot the difference from 2 meters away even
And yes, I'm on a wifi connection (don't really know if 3G is worse)
Unbranded euro tab running JJ3 by the way

Before reading your thread I did the same experiment
Extremely disappointing... One more reason for me to be disappointed by the Tab...
Hopefully gingerbread will solve this
No offence intended to anyone, but if you cant notice the difference its because you dont have attention to detail, or an eye for quality, i cant stand watching stuff in the youtube app, it looks perfect in portrait mode with high quality, problem is its strecthing that resolution across landscape, if someone can some how edit the resolution of the video its downloading that could fix the problem, easier said that done i suppose
I just use jet video, download it and watch it in 720 :/
Instead of *****ing and complaining about the **** software in this phone. Post up some sweet 1080P videos you took. I wanna see what this phone can capture!

Not the best video footage but its my first time using the camera and uploading straight to youtube. Pretty good for a damn phone.
(My theory behind the software bugs: THIS PHONE WAS PROBABLY INTENDED TO BE RELEASED WITH 2.3. Just competition and other factors may have pushed the early release. We are guaranteed an update, so just chill out. They probably just threw 2.2 on there to be safe and didnt give it much time for testing. And with CM7 and other stuff on the way why even worry? Go ahead and return the best phone out right now regardless of software bugs. More fun for me! /rant)
Also, can anybody get the embedding to work? The YouTube tags aren't working.

Seems it's a device by device issue. I have MKV HD videos I had to convert to play on iPhone, but I see some people have had success getting them to play on various android devices, but I can't find any video app that'll play them without being jerky or not having audio.
Thanks

the stock player can play the .mkv wrapper. but not all .mkv's will be compatable there isnt just one .mkv codec. i plan to mess with transcoding some movies and report what works for me. the infuse has similar (better) hardware to the iphone so playback of similar files should be posible, that's not to say there isnt a difference in the os or player that gives the iphone an advantage.
.mkv files work and the built-in video player has full support for even L5.1 High profile 720p h.264 video (5.5Mbps, CABAC). Weirdly enough, I can't get FLAC contained in mkv to play and AAC-LC is a mixed bag (some play, others don't). AC3 works great though; I haven't run into a single failure.
Boo it won't work for me :-(

I downloaded "Lite" and it works fabulous. Only issue is now I can't find the "full" version to buy\download so I don't have the rock app logo on the screen 24\7
I also use rock player, when is vlc releasing their android app? Also I know the infuse screen is big and all, but do you really need an .mkv and HD on such a small screen? I'm sure an xvid encoded movie would look just as good a screen this size and the distance at which you watch it.

No, don't need the HD-ness, it's more of the fact that I download them for my WDTV live HD as MKV and it'd be nice to have a player that I can play them without having to mess with converting them.

When you first open Rock player, click on the menu button on your phone, the menu says activate and that is where you can buy it. Even though its the light version.

No problems for me so far... plays everything I throw at it without issues so far.. including mkv files.
Moboplayer (ARMv7-Neon optimizations) is quite good, even in software decoding mode. Seeking can get noticeably laggy but overall it's a good experience, at least coming from Rockplayer and mVideoPlayer. Subtitles and audio (including FLAC) work well most of the time in hardware accelerated mode and software decoding is not bad for a single core 1.2GHz phone.

camera test
Will you please try downloading gcam and see how it takes pictures with gcam? both using HDR+ and regular.
GCam is the camera app from the pixel phones. there are versions of it for different phones (unofficially) here in xda.
I want to see how different the pictures are. i heard that they were using the S7 Edge camera sensor. that leads me to believe that the camera is potentially not bad. Basically that would be a win for all of us if true. will you put that to the test? thanks man. also i was looking to buy it to root as well but im not sure if you are up to go that far but if you do, let me know how it goes. thank you very much!

IMHO,a resounding NO........
The display is plenty bright,adjust to your liking.
Adaptive lighting/auto brightness,I have both turned off.
I have yet to use a phone that suits me using either,always being too dim,this one is no different.
Crank it up to your liking manually & it's more than bright enough,with plenty to spare.
No phone is going to be as clear/bright/legible outdoors vs indoors.
From my experience/usage with many,many phones,there's negligible,if any,difference under sunlit/outdoor conditions from one phone to the next.
I'm sure you could detect negligible differences in a side-by-side comparison,but,that's not real-world usage,just for the bloggers/websites to have something to talk about.......
Rest assured,the screen is plenty bright,go ahead & dive in..................... :good:
