When watching streaming videos from websites is it pixelated on your device? I'm watching anime and dramas on sites and they are blockish looking. It did this on my pc back in the day with older divx/flash plugins as well.
(This isn't the case for sites like Youtube, etc. It is mainly on the anime sites).
It's because the resoluton of the video you are streaming is not high enough.
then the problem are with the videos you're watching. they must just be low-quality.
also, some sites stream lower quality videos depending on your connection speed, that can another thing to consider.
It's not those kind of squares that result from low quality vids.
The vids look fine on my desktop running at higher res.
These are little tiny squares.
try posting a screenshot.
The TF is terrible in playing flash videos via browsers. Check the videos on this site, for instance:

I also cannot play any flash video on the espn3 site on the TF. On my other computers, all these videos play smoothly. Even on my Gingerbread Nook Color and on the 2.2 HTC Thunderbolt, they play smoothly.
Apparently the Xoom or the Galaxy Tab has no trouble playing flash. So something's wrong with the Asus implementation.

I watched a vid on that site on my TF and my laptop..
Those videos are low quality and the TF looked better than my laptop..(it was smaller)
I've streamed videos from youtube and vimeo and they look great. it all depends on what's going in...to determine what's going out.
yes I found it pixelated too. tried dolphin HD and the video quality is worst than playing it on stock browser. I downloaded the video file (using firefox plugin), the quality is much better played on stock video player. so I presume the flash player used by the browsers are set to certain quality.
Has anyone tried Ustream? I want to use Ustream but no joy,is there a fix for this?

What's the problem with Ustream ? It's working fine here.
I get pixelation when viewing ad videos on websites. Doesn't bother me at all.

The Tegra2 does seem to do less deblocking that you might get on a system with more spare CPU power. Nothing to do with "pixelation" though.
I watch a lot of videos on my phone, from YouTube, hbo go, netflix, megaviewer pro. But mostly full length films. I want to get the most out of my display but I keep screwing around and nothing is working.
I thought it was mentioned somewhere when advertising the inspire that it could play back 720p video. I broke blu ray copy of avatar down to a 720p mp4 file and while stills looked amazing, it just wouldn't play without getting jarbled up. There are a ton of settings, resolution, bitrate, buffer, etc.
What is the best possible quality video in all aspects that I can play on my stock player, but more likely vplayer. I goose vplayer because it has the most userchangeable settings. File size is not a problem as long as its under 5gb
Tried lots of containers and settings and everything either looks decent or harbors. I want awesome.
I use moboplayer free from the market & I can stream 720p mkv video from my network over wifi with no problems, plus it has settings for software or hardware decoding

Hello
First of all sorry for my english, im not good at it.
I want to buy new TF101 3g for my wife in a few days since Prime is dissapoint (i need GPS functionality and strong wifi signal/3g )
She will mainly use it for web browsing, office documents and youtube watching.
How is OG transformer doing with youtube playback ? Does it have problems with HD videos at yt ? Does it shutters/slows ? Its very important for me.
I searched information for the past few days but couldnt find any actual useful info about yt playback.
Thanks for any answers.
no lag in HD playback
lag is only in Full HD (1080p) which is no problem in youtube videos (youtube will load 720p movies)
I've been using recently the TF for watching a lot of videos in YouTube and I haven't found any problem while viewing.
I've set it to get the HD version on full screen and WiFi and while on it, it just goes pretty smooth.
For the use your wife is gonna give it, its a really nice piece and it will surelly perform well.
you are using the youtube app right?
cause it's a very different experience with youtube vids between the app and browsing youtube on the web.
the app streaming is great but i noticed it wont show on searches all videos that you can have on the web browser.
It happens to all youtube mobile client (iOS/Android). It takes time for them to convert the video. Blame it on Apple and their flash BS excuse. At least on Android, we can just go to the youtube mobile website.
Hi guys,
can adreno 225 play high profile 1080p h264 videos @ 40 mbs like tegra 3 does?
Here http://www.dvdloc8.com/clip.php?movieid=13599&clipid=4 you can download a sample and try it.
Furthermore , can you play a 1080p youtube flash video ( in browser, not using youtube app), does it stutter???
Let me know...
Thanks
Downloading it for you mate

ok,
indeed tegra 3 gpu seems better, it is fully capable to play this kind of video.
And what about 1080p youtube flash videos ( in browser, not using youtube app)?
thanks a lot

The point is yotube app doesn't use flash player...in app you are watching mp4 videos ( or other low bitrate codec).
In browser , istead ( with desktop user agent) you'll see flash video videos. I really would know if s4 can play 1080p flash videos....
so the quality would be better in the browser ?? i have default set to use youtube so never tried other methods.
im intrigued now lol.

I just tried a few 1080p flash videos using the browser and they played fine, smooth and sharp as a pin.
Next test?

I tried playing Ken Block Gymkhana 3 Part 2, using stock browser, full screen, 1080 & 720 were both choppy.

the quality depends on specific video, but in browser you have a real HD ( 720p or 1080p) and a higher bitrate than youtube app that is designed to work with all phones, even with ones that don't have flash player.
In generally, in browser using flash player you can test the true capabilities of the cpu\gpu,
this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_i2RCBa3l-g at 1080p is a good test.
There are scenes at high bitrate ( for a flash video ).
Try it please. tegra 3 is good to play this...

Playing youtube on the browser desktop page is definitely much higher quality than in app. Even the lowset 360p option looks better than HQ in the youtube app. Can you test 720p and 1080p in the browser itself.
ok, Using chrome browser and maxthon browser. the picture quality is awesome, both 720p and 1080p.
using stock browser was a little choppy. as if it was buffering, Which it wasnt

ichrome is not using flash player. it is using html5 in youtube desktop or mp4 in youtube mobile.
in stock brower you are using flash player.
adreno 225 doesn't seem a good gpu...
I just updated to the newest YouTube app and the video quality is just awful. I've selected the HD video option in app settings, selected HQ in video settings, but its the same.
Is there some trick to play HD video?
Also, my internet connection is not the cause of this, because I can play 1080p videos on my PC without a problem.

I've had problems with streaming HD video on the youtube app before, I just found it was the wifi, as in distance from the router. I could be totally wrong but it worked for me, you might also want to try playing them through the browser not the app, that also seemed to make them stream faster, good luck.
