Hi guys,I purchased this tablet though used but from recently I'm having issues with youtube videos.
Every once in a while the video stops (even 720p resolution) and I get on a video like "rotating indicator",I suppose it's buffering video and then video plays and then again freezes/stops and this happens every 2-3 minutes.
But sometimes like today the video at 720P plays fine.
I wish I could show you what is happening but I will try to record.
I can understand that this is old hardware,but I lower resolution to 720p and I can not believe that it can not play even 720 smoothly.
So what is the problem here,slow CPU,RAM,disk,wifi connection or what?
Can I somehow resolve this.
I'm also suspicious that somehow battery is an issue because when I connect external power bank over micro usb port,video goes smoothly.
But battery is at 80 % and still this happens.
So what to do,this drives me nuts?
Please don't write it's old,buy new tablet bla bla bla.
Yah it's old but I'm not expecting from it to render and encode vids,just play.
Even my old S7 edge plays smoothly videos.
I mean it's quad core and 2 gigs of RAM,that should be sufficent for 720p playback.

Just got this awesome phone yesterday and I've been running it through my new phone tests. I wanted to try out the HDMI output to my TV and it is incredible! It output movies, maps, browser, etc just fine. When I went to play NOVA, it worked perfectly at first.
After a few minutes of playing, the audio on the TV stopped working. The game still played fine, but with no audio. I unplugged to HDMI cord from the phone and the sound on the phone no longer worked. I tried making phone calls, listening to voice mails on Google voice, playing movies/games and nothing would fix the lack of sound. (And yes, I did make sure media volume was all the way up.) I ended up having to reboot my phone and everything went back to working fine again.
I am able to duplicate this problem every time I have the HDMI cable plugged in for a few minutes (regardless of what app I am using). Has anyone else had this issue?
i had the same issue though it happened before connecting to an outgoing call and then later while playing some games via HDMI
I watched a Thor bootleg the day before the movie hit USA and it played just fine. Watched it again last night with a friend and again the whole movie played fine with us even watching some youtube vids on the big screen before hand.
I LOVE THIS PHONE!

What brand is your cable and how long is it?
I experienced the audio loss similar to the OP, but mine wasn't permanent. After about 15 minutes of playing some games via HDMI the sound would die for a few seconds, but then it would be normal. Sometimes the video signal would get lost as well, but would come back on in a few seconds.
However, I watched some youtube clips and didn't have any issues.
I bought mine from buy.com. It didn't even list the brand, but it was only $6.40 with free shipping. 6ft.
Come to think of it... I did notice when i played games all was fine. but playing videos the picture would cut out after a few seconds no matter what
mines have the same problems but when I play videos i recently captured or shot, the audio echoes really bad
When I watch YouTube video in hq using the YouTube app. The video loads quite slow and it buffers every 5 to 10 seconds. My WiFi speed gets 20mb/s. Watching low quality like 320p gives me no problem that I'm aware of. Any fix to this?
So I spent some time searching and looking around on the forums and couldn't seem to find an answer (for starters, everything was about TVs), so here we go:
I am trying to hook my TF up to a 1080p capable 25" computer monitor via HDMI. The picture shows up, but it seems to be a much lower resolution just blown up to fit the 1920x1080 size (possible the native 1280x800). I notice that when the TF switches to HDMI mode, a small black bar appears along the bottom, which I presume auto-corrects it to 1280x720 for 720p output. However, while playing GTA III, I notice that on the computer monitor, everything looks quite pixelated, much worse than an actual 720p signal. I also tested watching a TV episode I have stored on a microSD card using MX Video Player and the video resolution on the computer monitor was just as bad as GTA III.
Is there any way to get the TF to output an actual 720p signal (or even a 1080p signal if possible)?

Nobody's tried connecting to a computer monitor? I don't have an HD TV to test with
Hello, I'm new here
I just noticed that 1080 and 720 videos at 60 fps have become choppy on my nexus 5.
I can't post links, but gamersyde 720/1080 60 fps videos (i.e. the Mario Kart 8 ones), for example.
Until some time ago my nexus played the streaming perfectly, without a single frame drop or stutter. Even 1080/60 videos from the same site. Now they have become choppy... could someone try and see if it is an issue from my phone? If so, what could it be?
Thanks

It could just be whatever service you're streaming from, or your connection. Are you sure it's definitely your device causing the issue? Any sort of streaming works fine for me with no issues whatsoever.
I'm using the same connection I have always used. Aniway, if I download instead of streaming, the framerate is perfect
I have tried other connections, but the results where the same: videos streaming at 720 or 1080 at 60 fps, that played perfectly until some time ago, now stutter

Can you do a speed test to make sure the connection speeds are not too low? Sometimes WiFI has issues reaching its potential speed.
For instance my WiFi should be about 16Mbps down, however from time to time my phone is unable to pull more than 4Mbps but it only really becomes apparent if I'm trying to stream high quality video.
I can fix it by either going into Airplane mode and back, or disabling mobile data while using WiFi which technically happens automatically but can still be used as a work around.
Also, you'll get choppy results if the video has DTS audio over the network without using a custom codec.

I am trying to stream my Gear VR experience using a paid app called Screen Stream Mirroring. I can get it to stream with no problem however, any streaming I do results in a video fee that is EXTREMELY laggy, unwatchable. I'm connected to my home network, which I have zero issues with when streaming 1080 from my PC. I downloaded a seperate app to locally record what's on the screen, as soon as I start playing a game, it records it fine but as I go to watch my game through a video player app, the video is choppy. Maybe 1 frame for every 3 seconds. Same as when I stream for others to watch. Same thing happened when I connected my chromecast. My TV shows a mirror of my phone but it is horrendously laggy. I've had some serious issues with this phone since day 1.
Any idea what could be causing it? I've seen other users stream and mirror with no issues, why am I unable to do it? I can't record, I can't stream, and I can't even mirror to my tv because it all lags horrendously.
I'm using a Note 5. It's not running stock I'm using a custom OS and firmware courtesy to XDA.
I am currently using TEKXodus rom and SkyHigh kerner.
Last issue I have, and this is something I have had since day 1, is when ever I try to watch videos on youtube or download files, it's significantly slower compare to my Note 3. I can not watch 1080 videos or 720. Even at 640 my videos sometimes lags! I don't understand why, I have unlimited internet. I called Tmobil but they said that everything is working fine. Anyone has any ideas? I really dislike the Note 5 ;/ I miss my Note 3
