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 :/
We have version 1.0 for it. Is there any new one or app that corrects image on front camera? Because it takes mirrored image and there is no option for mirror mode.

I'm not sure this is something that actually needs to be corrected. The image is mirrored to give the individual you are video calling with a correct view of what they should be seeing on their end. If you're trying to patch the camera to make it non-mirrored, the image would appear mirrored on the other end during a video call. All phones with front facing cameras mirror.
Ummmmn no! The screen shows an image as if you were looking in a mirror. As in you raise your right arm and the arm on your right of the screen raises. And as in words on your tshirt are backwards. Try it. The op is right.
I don't know if this is done to make self portraits seem more natural. And I don't know if the other end during a video call is also mirrored or if it is shown as if they were looking at you and the mirroring is isolated to the users screen but I'm sure somone at Samsung thought it was a good idea. Thats a pretty big mistake to make.

That's the point I'm making. If it wasn't mirrored on your end it would be on the end of the people you're video chatting with. If you take a snapshot, it shouldn't be mirrored in a still.

you mis-understand. if you take a still the text is backwards on you t-shirt. it should be like any other camera but is not, instead it acts like a mirror would,
normally if the camera and screen are facing the same direction and you raise your right hand it would appear that you are standing facing your self raising your right hand (the hand to the left of your view being that you are facing opposite directions.)
what the infuse does it the hand to the right of your view raises. in feels intuitive as if you are using a mirror but rather than only mirroring the screen output on your end to hel it feel more natural it actually saves the image like that, and though i havent tried video chatting it seems it would be sending the image the wrong way as well.
if you are doing this on purpose to see how many people you can confuse, im gonna f-ing scream! i know all about perspective, you cant throw me off.
if you are confused then put on a t-shirt with a logo and take a still of yourself, then try to read it in the galery.
Yeah. Once you snap the picture, it still remains mirrored, and why should the camera app be mirroring it in the first place? It doesn't do any video chatting (correct me if I'm wrong).

it does in video chat in 3rd party apps, but you wouldnt want it mirrored for that, that would be wierd. the only reason i can come up with is a mirror feel more intuitive to focus on your self than a camera so they mirrored the image, they should have only mirored the screen image within the camera app though, instead it seems the firmware outputs a backwards image to file and likely any software using it.
that brings up another point though. can we pull the phone apk from the i9000 for video calling in the dialer and would that work on the infuse and on att's network?

I would like to know what applications can you use to video call as you mentioned here. I have tried Fring and Yahoo "Messenger" and both utilize the back camera and there are no settings or button to switch to front facing camera.
I am running the Infused rom, I wonder if that has something to do with it. I would like to make video calls, but at the moment haven't been able to.
You can use Qik. I tested it with my friend who has an EVO.

I use ooVoo to video chat. It is not officially supported yet, but I changed the model number in the build.prop file to the Galaxy S 4G

Wrong!! My buddy has an iphone 4 and i used to use a dell streak and the dell was mirrored. Once i got the infuse i told him his phone was screwed up because the infuse was mirrored too, so i tried to con him into the thought that his should be mirrored too. he took a pic of his t shirt with his and it showed a correct pic. he took a pic with my infuse and his t short was morrored. RETARDED !!!!
This camera is awesome! I used this on the S.U.R.F.A.C.E. rom because my kept force closing.

Anyone have success uploading a 1080p clip to Youtube? I tried with one last night recorded at 1080p and it posted up as 480p and still is this morning so it's not a processing issue. I couldn't find a setting in the Youtube app. Anyone know what is up with that?
have you tried to change the resolution while watching the video? link?
Yes, no go. Stuck at 480.
http://youtu.be/2OY_J1A6uqo
yep only shows 480p for me. are you uploading through the youtube app or through the gallery?
Gallery via wifi
Nevermind, the vids were actually at qHD res on the phone. I swore I changed it to full HD, but I guess not.
Sorry.
lmao! my girlfriend has the mytouch4g & i found out it had 720p recording. asked her if she knew. she always thought she had it switched on too.
I'm glad you got it figured out
hello folks ?
what's going on ?
so im newbie in this forum although i have been reading it since 2 months ago cuze this is a nice forum and i've learnt a lot stuff thanx this forum.
Today Im leaving a new Thread cuze i have a problem with my motorola xt720.
I have no idea why the problem is happening . but for some strange reason my motorola is recording video in hd mode with a poor video quality.
this is the example :
youtube plus /obD6zNfl7r4 ( i wrote in this way cuze im newbie and i cant post links )
my phone is the version with 550mhz proccesor and i have a 8gb sd card class 2.
sometimes when im recording some video, android says me that it has a problem with read/writing my sd.
also another times i can record some video with nice quality.
i had thought that the problem could be the cam was damaged but always i can take nice pics with no problems....
im thinking to change my sd and get some sd 6+ class. but i need fix this problem.
so if somebody can help me , plz leave me to know..
Thanx for all and my regards form Barranquiilla, Colombia....
So long
Hola mijaelstand,
First off, what ROM are you using? Do you have the Motorola Stock 2.1 ROM or have you flashed to anything else?
If you can sometimes record with nice quality and other times will poor quality, this may be a memory issue or a background app problem. The processor on this phone seems to need every bit of power it can get out of the CPU to record high quality video. Android 2.2 usually does a decent job of memory allocation but it depends on your minfree settings. Also background apps (if not killed by minfree) can take cpu cycles.
So as a test you can manually force close the majority of running apps under Home Screen->Menu Button->Settings->Applications->Manage Applications->Running TAB, kill things like adobe flash, facebook, maps, etc. And then try capturing a video to see if it helps the quality.
Next, if android says it has a problem with the sd card, it might be a good idea to replace it.
Lastly, I got a 404-Not found when I added the extension "/obD6zNfl7r4" to youtube[dot]com. So unfortunately, I couldn't see your video.

You have to add obD6zNfl7r4 after "/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=\"
geez, it's getting late over here... thanks Zachary
mijaelstand, I now watched the video and I think I've changed my position. When you said poor quality I thought you meant frame skipping. The video seems to have banding issues. So my recommendations may not work for your problem. I've never seen that before on my XT720.
Hi dude. Thanx for reply. : ).....
I have my phone with the original room from factory.. still i have updated it. So im 2.1 eclair android version but im planning to update it .
I have setCpu app installed with motorola milestone overclockling app and it's running at 1000mhz on demand and it's smoothin. Very nice.
Also i uploaded a video where you can watch it and it has a nice quality. Look at this:
youtube.c/watch?feature=youtube_gdata_play. er&v=_H-SzGy9TxYr
So in this way i dont think the problem is some issue with the cam... also i have my sd in 2 partition cuze lin2sd can works. Also I dont know if the problem is the processor. So i need test it as u told me.

Hey,
This seems like a pretty standard recording. My XT720 performs in the same way. The only issue I think you have is lighting. The camera performs really poorly in low light and well outside. Try taking a video outside and post it. Goodluck.
Sorry im going to upload some example video. Thanx

I just recorded a tutorial the other day of me ceramic coating my wifes car. I finished the tutorial uploaded it to the PC and then noticed all the images were turned sideways. I then went to rotate them which isnt a problem except now the formatting looks terrible for youtube or any other way you would watch a video. Am I doing something wrong? Does the OnePlus7 Pro not record in the Video Standard 16:9? Is there a setting I can use to enable that?
Thanks in advance
Anyone have any thoughts? Am I doing something wrong?
After trying multiple things I still cant get it situated properly
Yes op7 pro records 16:9
The OP7 Pro only records video at 16:9 as far as I can tell. In the app you only have 16:9 as choices. (ie 1080p, 1080p 60fps, 4k(2160p), 4k(2160p) 60fps)

Try this app, you can choose the aspect ratio. And this is the only app so far i know which can record 4k60fps.

I will do more testing but every time I have recorded video and tossed it on the pc it wants to distort it and spin it around. Do weird things. I'll do some more testing. Thanks everyone
