I'm trying the Youtube app on my Nexus 5 (version 5.3.32) and it definitely really sucks.
Videos (HD and SD) suffer of frame dropping and sometimes (for example when you listen to a song) there are some punctual audio distorsions (metallic peaks) while playing.
I compared the same music video on a Samsung Galaxy S2 and the difference is embarassing...
Any news/solutions?
As a workaround, i'm using Google Chrome on Nexus 5 for Youtube and it's so much better than the app.....

I replaced the Google YouTube app with an alternative called Viral. I even removed the YouTube apk and only have an issue with the Flowly app. Viral includes features that Google ignores such as background audio playback and full control over the UI theme colors. It actually had floating video windows before Google added that feature.

correct me if I'm wrong but aren't GApps are just supposed to be a collection of Google Apps and is separate from Nexus devices.
With regards to your original comment, the Youtube App is the same for everyone isn't it?
I experience no such issues with the stock YouTube app on WiFi or data. I always have HQ or HD selected.

Stuttering problem could be due to WiFi optimization. Disable it from advanced WiFi setting.

Everyone has the same gapps
I thought everyone on the same version of android should have the same version of gapps? Also, there is surely going to be delay when opening apps unless your phone runs on SSD? Well, that would be so cool LOL
Well i`am running stock/no root and i never xperienced any issues as discribed by some users on YouTube, not on wifi and 3G.

It does, and works flawlessly.
Website seems to automatically downscale it to look like crap, but with the app and clicking HD on bottom left it works fine.

Use whatever apk you want from there. Uninstall the preinstalled YT app with Titanium Backup, and install this. *Might need a reboot after uninstalling*
Also, you need root.

Not if the video uploaded a 720p option.
Well I tried uninstalling the updates to flash to no avail. Perhaps it's GPU related? No idea
my youtube app plays HD perfectly. pretty sure it is 720p. I also just enabled force GPU rendering...not sure if this has anything to do with it.
I have heard conflicting issues with video, both in quality and performance. Maybe HD only works over LTE or Wifi?
Search 720p from the app and click the first link, Iceland Volcano or w/e. It shows "HD" next to the views, showing that it was actually recorded in HD.
It first plays at normal grainy quality, but after clicking HD when on LTE it looks amazing...since you can't disable LTE on the ATT OneX I can't test over standard 4G to compare.

even if the video uploaded a 720p option its still 480p. props to ExtractedDeath for providing the link with the modified youtube app. thats the only way. But my concern is why cant it play it in the browser? The phone should be powerful enough
My YouTube app is definitely playing in full HD quality (720p+).
My One X is also playing 720p on the pre-installed YT app. I know the clarity of this video is NOT just 480p...
It's not like past apps that played HQ... it's actually playing HD.

Same here. I think maybe it needs LTE? I took two quick sets of screenshots to compare...if the second pics aren't true HD then its the damn best upscaling from 480p I've ever seen! Leaving full res for obvious reasons, sorry to those with slow internet...

your saying 1080p youtube videos work in desktop mode on your browser?? please tell me the secret as i have tried all browsers and none play smoothly on 720p or 1080p. on lte or wifi the app gets 720p. just realized the whole time i was on hspa+ which is why i kept getting 480 .
I'm 100% the YouTube app plays 720p HD video as long as the video has 720p. And it looks freaking amazing.

This app has the following features to give you the best seamless and intuitive experience.
Resizable Pop-up player which can also play local videos from your video gallery
Minimise and play in the background
Change video resolutions from 144p up to 1080p

Great player, I love the multitasking ability. Would it be possible to have the app open to What to Watch? Also have the ability to open Gallery videos from within the app itself?
I think the idea and actual functionality of this player is brilliant but it also still needs quite some polish.
Performance of menus aren't the best, and somehow the layout of the shown video in the time line looks a hit squashed, at least on the Nexus 7.
But if performance improves and some small things get fixed, this could even replace the native app.
Finally I'm able to reply to comments and it gives you much more information at once anyways.
Very promising app, please keep it up
Just purchased the full version, as this is a pretty powerfull YouTube app that will likely only get better. I would suggest an option for a dark theme in the settings menu. The Style menu is can't seem to invert the video cards on the main menu that feature the videos. I love running all dark apps on my phone, so having a quick setting in the menu for a dark theme would be a blessing, so I won't have to change the colors on my own every time I wipe my device and flash a new ROM.
Besides that, this app is wonderful. The ability to play real HD videos is perfect. It's way better than the app Google provides. I'm going to recommend to my followers that they check out your app.
I was playing a video on my Nexus 7 2013 when I noticed a little quirk. It is impossible to tune a video to a certain time with the navigation bar enabled in landscape. The app does not resize to accommodate the navigation bar. I've attached a screenshot to show this in action. You can see in the image how when you touch the screen, the navigation bar pops up and blocks that area of the app.
Can't wait to try this out, but I have to wait till I get back. Going to an area with no cell service and creepingly slow internet.:crying::crying::crying:

- option to vote for hosters, so one can quickly see that a hoster is bad.

Hi,
Today I have released free camera app named "Miniature Preview Camera".
Miniature Preview Camera
The following is a link to apk.
View attachment 2373645
You can capture miniaturized photo with real time preview.
Miniaturized photo is created by so-called tilt shift effect. However,beautiful miniaturized photo also requires good photo composition and objects which matches up with tilt shift effect. So this app offers real time preview of tilt shift effect. You can capture the best miniaturized photo while you are watching result of effect.
It also offers test for EDIT mode which makes you to add tilt shift effect to the image in gallery.
This is my first camera app.
I am worried the fact that behavior of android camera is very dependent on the device.
So I would appreciate if you could try it and give me some feedback.

Are you 100 percent stock Google
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Yes, Mark, 100% stock Google; no custom ROMs, no root, no unlocked bootloader, etc.
I switched back to Dalvik and it seems like the issue went away, but I got it back after a few hours. So no matter what runtime is enabled, the artifacts show.
I installed MX Player last night, and it works perfectly with software decoder only; but if I enable the hardware decoder, I get the same artifacts. Using this doesn't solve the problem on YouTube, of course.
I guess I'll have to do a factory data reset and see if that solves my problem. Darn.
Well, I factory reset my phone twice, and even formatted cache, all to no avail. I'm still having this freaking issue.
Anybody has experienced this problem? Any possible solution?

Plugged, unplugged, it's the same.
Curiously, I disabled HDR+ on the camera app and YouTube isn't showing the problem anymore. But it's too early for me to say that's causing the problem.
However, IMDb is showing lots of artifacts on the trailers (embedded youtube, I think); I just played The Hobbit 's trailer and it's full of them. But the same trailer is perfect on YouTube. Same issue on Tapatalk with YouTube videos.
Biggest problem is this issue also occurs when playing local videos, being an mp4 I copied to the phone or a video recorded with the camera.
It's gotta software, though, cause MX Player does not have this issue when playing any local files. But it really bugs me.

A screenshot captures everything on the screen independently of the source of the problem, be it software or hardware.
Biggest problem is this issue is not occurring on YouTube anymore. And a hardware issue will occur not only on videos, but on games too (which are perfect), and pretty much everywhere.
I'm on 4.4.2 now. Is it possible to go back to 4.4.0? I'm having the feeling that the ROM installed on this phone came with the problem, and subsequent updates did not overwrite the troublesome files.

In my case, it seems to be the video player system app, which does not show in the list of apps; if it did, I would already have cleared its cache at least.
I'm really bugged by this issue, man; my phone is almost "perfect". I'm downloading the 4.4 image; I'll downgrade back to original stock to see if that finally fixes this issue, and then just let the 4.4.2 OTA get installed by itself.
None of this worked.
Could someone share the video player system app, please?
