Full-featured browser (Uzard) support flash
Similar speed and Opera 10
Please forgive my poor English
wvga version
Individual Test experience: play video,support WIFI hotspot; can upload / download files; most important thing is can quickly . . . . . . . BUG: prone to dropped calls, I do not know whether use the connection (network) related?
All in all; is a powerful browser
download experience will know..
This browser is very good better than skyfire.plays flash 10 videos in full screen its stable tabbed browsing favorites superfast( close to opera 10 )
i gotta mention that the videos are a bit laggy but then again its still in beta
Really recommend to try this browser and share your feelings about it with us
I have to say, although I have barely used this new browser, I am very impressed with what I have experienced so far.
Excellent job.
It's similar to Mach5 Web, is there anything to do with it?
I like the browser. It will play Hulu videos. The only thing I don't like is that it detects videos and plays them in its own player. In its own player the videos are playing normal. If for example a site has a video ad then the clip you want to watch, the ad opens in the player then the clip stays in the browser and is very slow. If you try a video with Hulu, you will see what I mean.
Just to compare: Skyfire is blocked with Hulu, Opera seems to work but needs Flash 10

Fantastic - must be a catch somewhere. If i had to pay for this I would. Only issue so far is TVcatchup.com - won't play vids because it says i'm non UK - but i am. Any woraround for this?
Good browser only thing is that if video is detected it work like a charm
But if not you can't even watch the video it is very slow and you got now sound ...
So the only thing that should be improved is the video detecting mode.
Here is the website: uzard.com/en/main/main.asp
does it have multitouch? because if not, why should someone change fromopera 10 when it's so similar to it?
_edit_
the download is the P version... the H version should be a better choice? am i right? like opera mini vs. mobile.

Since it can detect video on 60% of the sites so you can watch real video.
And it got flash.
I can't find anything but their homepage
I tried it, but the only thing I get is their homepage,tried xda,google opera,all I get is page not found on my hd2,I'm in australia,but surely that should'nt matter,pity it looks promising

sry, but what do you mean by real video? do you mean full screen? just doubletap on the video in opera to get it fullscreen...

Well for example if you go to youtube. And you select a video you get:
Video detected do you want to watch it now. You press ok and you get the video full screen in Uzardwebs own player. As I already said this works about 60% of the sites sometimes it don't work.
And this is not opera this is just a complete different browser. So like you got opera, skyfire and Uzardweb.
Pretty fast and most of the sites I tried worked without issues. Much better than skyfire, but still not in the vicinity of opera mobile 10. Got a lot of connection errors, but that is to be expected considering it's still in beta. Scrolling is pretty bad, but at least I always got the desktop version of the webpage(especially irritating with opera). Gonna keep an eye on this one for sure!
I tried it just now..
Flash ,Browsing works for me without issues
Good Work
Best Regards
REALLY NICE ! Videos are working very well and speedly ! ANd not only on Youtube : all flash in working great !
Simply very fast !
Already love it !
Ps : skin editable by open the exe file on pc, but it's about 1000 files to change ...
also works with megavideo. although beta, is certainly one of the best around.
Tx a lot for this tip ! Wouldn´t have found it on my own.
It´s the first browser that fully works with my online aviation weather planning program "Skyview". Also shows iGoogle-page fully and clickable. Videos work nicely (with sound)
Although beta, seems to have good potential to beat skyfire, maybe once even opera.
The only pain ita is that it doesn´t save pwds and that rotation has to be done manually. Will try now to add it to rotation in BsB .........
Will have a close look on further devs of this nice browser.
Once again: Tx for hinting

I didn't get that on hulu
the flash played natively in the browser but no sound =/
I'll try another video site
I'm currently on 3.1 and facing major issues with YouTube. While the playback is smooth, the buffering of the video is pretty awful. I'm sure its not any issue with my router, as the same video streams pretty fast on my Captivate and laptop. Anyone else facing the same issue? Thanks in advance.

I find buffering during playback almost never works. If you navigate to the homescreen and then back to the youtube app playback will resume.

Yes, I have this problem also. No matter what I play on Youtube using the built in app, it plays fine, but stops to buffer constantly. I have a perfectly good connection and can play these videos on other machines. In fact, they played without all the buffering on the 3.01 software. Even regular def videos have the problem.
I just watched about 8 videos using the YouTube app. I set all videos to play in HD within my settings and I don't have any buffering issues. Right now I'm watching a 12 minute video of Battlefield 3, which had to buffer on my iPad, and so far no buffering what so ever
I'm loving the TF more and more!

The video is freaking sick!!! Have you rebooted it? I keep it off while not in use, so I just turn it on when needed. Also, are you close to your router? I'm a few feet away from mine.

It doesn't matter. The same video plays smoothly on the stock browser, without buffering issues. I'm feel its something to do with the Youtube app
I have this issue with only true 720p or 1080i videos. Remember every video says HD even if its not.

I had the issue in the app with 360p videos also.
I know this is going to seem ridiculous, but try something as an experiment. Change your dns server on the device to googledns or open dns. Lt us know if that impacts anything. I have a suspicion about the way dns routing may happen via certain isp's. This is something that has been going on with iOS devices regularly and I'm curious to see if it carries across platforms.
Sorry I can't be more help, but for the limited time it takes, can't hurt to try!

Sorry, I don't have my android device yet :/ you can try changing it on the router, that also fixed iOS devices.
8.8.4.4 and 8.8.8.8 are google's, 4.4 seems anecdotally quicker. http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/performance.html

I'm in the same room as my router and it does it under almost all circumstances. Funny thing is that sometimes it will load just fine. I haven't experimented much with the browser YouTube though.

My DNS is the same as my routers ip address. Can anyone change this to confirm its working?

Just did another random test with the YouTube app and that 12 minute video buffered just fine. I even fast forwarded and rewinded to different parts and it picked up and buffered just fine. I don't know what the deal is.

I don't even find an option in the TF to move to OpenDNS. My Youtube app still has pathetic buffering. I'm trying to watch a 50 min video on Youtube and it buffers always. Pretty frustrating
In my case, the problem appears to be something to do with my route to Youtube or the particular server that I'm using there. It bothers my desktop too. I can play high def videos from Vimeo and other sources full screen on the TF, so I assume that youtube would work fine if I could get a good connection. I've always used openDNS, so that's not it. I can't even play 240p videos on Youtube any more.
Here is an interesting thread.
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/youtube/thread?tid=60d5dd88d1570daf&hl=en&start=40
and here is an official youtube video test page.
http://www.youtube.com/my_speed
I don't see an option to change it on the tf.
Log into your router and configure those two as your dns server....I'd bet your other devices will be thankful too.
If not you can always delete them!
Ok I don't seem to be having any buffering issues whatsoever anymore. The only thing I have noticed is that with HD videos you have to pause the videos before fast forwarding or rewinding if you want it to properly buffer. Other than that everything is working great!
I started noticing this buffering issue yesterday while trying to watch a HD clip.
It would do it every 10 seconds... so I started to do some searching.
Initially I suspected Android until I found this link.
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/youtube/thread?tid=4cd2cff3bad5f19d&hl=en
Then I realised PCs, ipads etc are also affected.
The strange thing is though that flash imbedded video works fine.
Now my question is, would Youtube which is owned by google be making it difficult for other companies that dont have flash? and did the Facebook app dissappear because Google+ started?
hmmm I wonder...
Hello,
Thank you in advance for answering to my question. I searched for an answer to my problem, but i coulld find something that works on the forum.
I bought a Xoom wifi a week ago, made the 3.1 OS update (the one available in France at this moment) and flash is working well on it (i don't think that there is a problem with it, i even reinstalled it from the market). Also it can read MP4 videos that i put directly in it from my pc.
The problem is that my xoom doesn't read any video on the internet (Youtube App, videos of other app, videos of website, i'm using Dolphin HD). On the youtube app for example the screen gets stuck at "Buffering).
I didn't make any change on my xoom since i bought it (just installed some apps). I would be grateful if you helped me with this problem that makes my xoom not fully usable.
Regards.
ps: i'm a noob.

If you are stuck at buffering, it might just be a weak data connection. Streaming videos uses a bit of bandwidth.
Also, the YouTube app is known to have problems.
Hey All,
Just got the transformer prime and I'm trying to get it to play 720p mkv videos, but only a few seem to play smoothly. Most of them have a lag with audio and it's choppy.
I started on ICS and found it pretty bad with none playing properly. After reading the forums it sounds like i'm not the only one. Others were mentioning it was working fine on HC before the ICS update.
Based on that I installed one of the Revolver 3.11 HC ROM and notice that it was better but still not 100%. I've tried BS player, MX player, Dice Player and none seem to do it.
I've tried playing from internal memory, sd card and streaming but no luck. I also installed the OC kernel to get it to 1.5ghz but it's still not watcheable.
I've read many post on how people have it working properly.
Am I missing something?
I've tried various file size: Spartacus s01ep5 (1.7gb, 55min show), How I met your mother (1.1gb, 30 min show), Survivor (1.1gb 45min show).
Bump.
hm... thought other people would be wondering the same thing

it seems you have tried a lot of ways, you may think about changing the video format, if you are interested, you may read this post, it seems to be able to solve your problem
1080p 720p MKV movies playback on Transformer Prime High Quality Settings
hey there, thanks for the info. Thought the transformercpuld do 720p so its prettybig let down. Not really looking to do the converting. I have got it sort of working but not as smoothas I was hoping.
I noticed that article was about the Prime... Does that mean even the prime have issues with .mkv files?
It kinda surprises me since my crappy MIPS tablet can play 1080p high profile mkv's without issues, so you'd think the very expensive Prime could do that as well :s
A question though... Isnt Splashtop powerful enough to stream movies running on a PC (through LAN)?
In my mind it should be, seeing how its supposed to be able to stream games. Or is there any other RDP app thats capable of doing so?
Sorry for sneaking in like this :d
Hello,
I just updated my tf101 to ics (ota official). On Honeycomb I think the YouTube app was the app I used to most, it could play HD content at full fps and there were no problems. Fast forward to ICS where every video either skips or lags when a lot of things are moving around on the screen. This has made the youtube app unusable.
When I still had CWM i was also using ICS roms, but they had the same problem, so, I went back to honeycomb and it worked fine again. For some reason I thought the custom roms were to blame so I tried the official ota.
So to my question, is anyone else having these problems? And if so did you solve it? Also, is there an alternative to the youtube app? (I have tried the web version but it's waaay slower than the app at playing video).
Thanks!
No problems here. You could try to goto Manage Apps and clear the cache for YouTube...and then if that doesn't work also clear the data. That would be the first step in trouble shooting.
for my case, is the 720p mkv files lagging, for youtube i notice some stuttering , not anything that obvious though. BTW many have reported video performance dropped dramatically on the ICS
So there is no way to fix this? I tried to download a trailer and it lags as well. So it is not just the youtube app. Shouldn't the tf101 handle videos pretty good?
I tried everything and finally...
I uninstalled adobe flash player, and it stopped skipping around. Wondering if there is a system conflict on this tablet as there is sometimes w/ desktop versions of google and the conflicts between shockwave and flash player... oh well, it worked. Super frustrating.
