Hey i have a Red Lg Nexus 5 with LTE.
Everything was great until i updated the youtube app yesterday. I was gonna watch a video today at home, but the youtube app was loading really slow and buffering slow, my internett is pne of the best ones here in norway for my internet provider. The video was lagging sound was lagging and studdering. Then i walked to the computer and tested youtube there, maybe it will be better, but no everything is the same as on the phone as i monsioned. If someone can help me please.

So it's the same on your computer and your phone? Sounds like either the video you were trying to watch or your Internet decided to have a slow session

Hey, are you having trouble with Youtube on your PC?
It is known that the NEXUS5 throttles when it's pushing it, but it's highly unlikely it would throttle only playing a youtube vid + running the youtube app.
Test youtube on your computer and let us know.
Also,
Run the latency test on http://www.pingtest.net/
post results please.

Mine does! It's not perfect, but it certainly works.
I'm on T-Mo and use it on the EDGE. It takes a little while for it to optimize, but once it does it's watchable.

what how are you able to watch it?
Works pretty well on ATT 3G... some pixelation and pauses, but I'll watch games on it in a pinch! The only issue I've found is that sometimes it gets stuck on the inverted U opening page and doesn't progress. A soft boot usually fixes this.
u connect the sling box to ur cable or dish box, run the setup and make sure u can access it outside ur router if u got one, then download the sling player mobile from off they site and it allows u to stream it, on HSDPA its freaking awesome, doesnt take long to start up too, u can also use orb but i have no luck so far with orb and live tv, only downloaded videos on my pc seems to be able to stream on orb
thanx for the answers
my slingbox arrives tomorrow
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)

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 :/
I purchased the Atrix 2, and tested out playing tv shows using various video players through HDMI mirroring and each video file on every video player resulted in jerky video playback. Plays fine on phone, even plays fine on original atrix using hdmi and video playback mode.
Anyone else who has an atrix 2 have this problem?

Guess the Atrix 2 just isnt as good as the first one. Unless your tv just cant handle that substantial upgrade you made, and now you are forced to upgrade your TV.
On a serious note now, try restarting your phone.. Install take killer and see how much ram you have to play with. Or you just might have to wait for a update from Moto. Could be some codec hardware/software issues. Good luck!

Task killer is nothing but a battery drainer, dont install it please!
I demuxed the video files and the video plays 100% smooth with NO audio. I am converting the audio to mp3 to see if the video will play fine with that codec.
File with mp3 audio didnt even play but I converted the aac audio from 48hz to 44hz and that made a difference. File with 48hz noticeably had alot of frame jumps while file with 44hz still had frame jumps but it didnt have that many. Both files look fine on phone. Problem is while mirroring.

Don't install a Task Killer just use the one the phone comes with that is built in.
Ok so I just tried HDMI Mirroring and it works flawlessly granted you really need to reformat the videos to an acceptable format considering I tried to watch a non formated .mkv video and because of the compression of that video type it did stutter a bit. .avi has a slight issue with Not actually playing at least the one I attempted anyway. .mp4 played perfectly with no issues at all. Will let you know if I figure out any tricks for optimizing videos.
Edit: Yea ok so after playing with Multiple Videos it seems that it depends on the compression of the video as far as I can tell, considering I just got a bunch of Other .avi's to function with no issues at all. So yea seems video related.

All the files I tested were video files I already converted to work with my Atrix, which works on my atrix perfectly fine using the Entertainment Center feature of the original Atrix. The files also work perfectly fine on the SGS 2 mirroring. The files play perfectly fine on the Atrix 2 with the exception of mirroring, the frames jerk randomly. I removed the audio from the video file and it worked perfectly. I tried playing a low res divx and it still did the frame jumps.

I had already tried rock player and just tried dice player and the frames still jump. The files play perfectly fine on the phone itself with stock player and any other player. The problem is when you try playing it while in HDMI mirror mode.
how does the games look with HDMI mirror? ie: angy birds, need for speed? any frame drops?

I just tried mirroring FPSE and it lagged real bad. I mirror it just fine on SGS2 and original atrix using photon rom.
Wack.
Also here is a video showing the Samsung Galaxy s2 mirroring FPSE just fine, however Atrix 2 cant seem to handle it.
FPSE runs smoother in Atrix Webtop mode then it does in Atrix 2 mirror mode
I cant install NFS Shift, when trying to download it just says NaN 0mb
Good news is I posted this over at motorola forums and Mark, the forum moderator said that motorola will look into this problem.
Hopefully they do some sort of fix.

Hello buddy, seems you got the Atrix2 already. i just have some questions on this
is the CPU TI4440 or TI4430?
is the display pixel arrangements RGB or Pentile?
does the display satisfy you?
does the camera satisfy you?
thanks.

Hey Shanghei,

I have the exact same problem. Youtube plays in 3g but not in 4g. I am using bamf forever 11
Mine plays in 4g but constantly buffers as if it's not getting the full speeds. Even pausing it to let the cache build doesn't work because once you press play, it loses all the cache and plays for a few seconds and needs buffering again.
I cant believe this isn't a huge issue posted all over the place
YouTube isn't playing over 4G Network but is playing on wifi. I have a very fast 4G Network. Netflix plays without any issues, Just YouTube over 4G. This sucks, I watch many YouTube videos and 95$% of all flash content is over YouTube. This started I think Yesterday when I downloaded the flash update.

Did you try 3g? It works but what good is lte if inhave to use 3g.

This morning mine is working on 4 g again. I haven't changed a single setting sun last night when it didn't work
Im working today as well. No issues. I did report it to them yesterday & made a comment in the market but doubt they saw it and reacted that quick
This thread must have scared the * out of them and they JUMPED to fix it! LOL
Lets just hope it continues to work.
This AM mine also was back working on 4G. This happened to me about 6 weeks ago for a day. Same thing by the next AM it was working again. Very strange. At least it is working, Nothing sucks worse then a glitch in the Thunderbolt. Can not complain, my Thunderbolt has been pretty damn solid for me.
Hello, I tried getting amazon instant video up and running a few different ways and found it to be unreliable at best. I found an easy method that seems to work flawlessly. I've only watched 1 show so far but it worked like a charm, here is how you do it:
1. Install Kodi (i think x86 is the correct one): http://kodi.tv/download/
2. Install this addon repository: https://code.google.com/p/addonscri...=repository.addonscriptorde-beta.zip&can=2&q=
for more info check this thread: http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=215255
3. Install the Amazon Instant Video player from his repo
4. Login and watch video
pretty easy, especially since most people probably have kodi installed already, and if you dont, you should.

not sure what is going on. it is working fine on my end. i've watched probably 6 or so episodes of the americans without issue. i read somewhere in that thread i posted above that you may need to adjust video stream resolution size if you have problems, you may want to check out that thread for support. i set mine to 1080p but it appears to be playing in 720p which is fine for me cause i mainly watch it in my bedroom which is not my main tv.
