You need to give more info, from where are you trying to watch it? How is the video acting? Just nothing, or terrible skipping, jumping, force close? Is the video flash? If it is, have you dowoaded adobe flash player?

Try watching the video with Chrome (the internal browser), on my Xoom, it plays the videos much better than the other browsers.

Uploads videos to Youtube Choppy

Ok, I don't know if it is just me but when I upload videos I make on my Xoom to Youtube using the Youtube app they become choppy and out of sync. The videos play fine on my Xoom, they just upload wrong. Is this just me or have others experienced this?
Hey I just tested this with a video shot on my Evo 4G (cyanogen 7), and then edited on my Xoom, then uploaded to youtube using my Xoom. The video plays fine both on my Xoom locally and from YouTube. Also plays fine from the you tube website using flash.

It takes a while for a video uploaded to YouTube to be fully transcoded into every resolution available, and during the process, if you try to view the video it will often stutter and desync at some resolutions.
At least, that's my experience.
Try going back and looking at your video after a few hours.

Flash streaming video is pixelated, is yours?

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:
http://www.ittf.com/ittv/
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.

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.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA Premium App
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.

[Q] video streaming

Im having difficulty watching videos in default browser or dolphin. The video does not completely load. Most of the time i can only play half of the clip then stops and tries to load/buffer the other half but it wont. Netflix and youtube streaming through the apps are ok. Is there anyway to fix this?
probably something wrong with thr video stream

That was my first thought but it behaves the same in different videos and websites.
what rom are u using, and what radio? Does this happen on data or wifi?

[Q] online HD video playback problem on the HOX

I have noticed that everytime I play hd videos online, the video player controls won't go away and just keeps on going on and off. I do have other video players other than the stock one, and I have no problem playing videos using the youtube app, or the stock browser. Playing videos offline is also not an issue, as this problem only occurs when I use other browsers like dolphin, and skyfire. Just to be clear, I am talking about just about any hd, or hq videos online from any site. Is anyone else having this issue? Is there a way for me to play said videos using another player? thanks.
P.S I am running on stock ROM.
If the videos are on either PutLocker or Nowvideo, you can use this. It plays the file in your favorite video player.

What to expect from TF700 stock video player?

Chances are most of the 720P video files comes with A52 Audio track.
Surprise !
It will not play as is, using the stock video player.
where do you have the video stored? memory card or device? i had a few movies stored on my 64gb card, and when i tried to play them, with any video player, i got that message. so i transferred the same movies to a usb thumb drive, plugged it into the keyboard, and they played fine. im not sure what the issue is. but i do have some movies, that were converted specifically for my xoom, that play just fine from the memory card.
From my playing the stock video player is crap. I've had no real success playing anything unless I specifically reencode for it. Even stuff that worked on the OG transformer stock player fails on this one. That said, BS player works quite well as long as you are playing the videos locally.
I've had very little luck streaming from UPNP server in my house due to poor wifi streaming rate.
The BS player is by far the best.

MXVideo Player played the movie with no issues.
Codec 7
