I have tested youtube on several x1 Roms and i am extremely annoyed with how pathetic the situation is. The only way to play the videos at full framerate is to drop the quality to "fast download". Otherwise its just too choppy
Roms with new ati drivers are a bit better but are still slower than my 3year old overclocked wizard.
Will thc/se/qualcomm ever fix their "drivers"

Can you say what ati drivers did you upadated and where did you get them?
EDGE or HSDPA ??
The internet speed difference is brutal...
You gotta compare the resolution between the two. The Xperia has much more pixel to render. So yeah if we put a QVGA LCD on the Xperia things will be fast as hell.
Anyway I can still watch Youtube videos smoothly with the high quality chosen without any problem.
for updated drivers i used jockeys rom 1.08
for both devices i used wifi and the demo version of core player and htc's youtube player
the x1 has 5x the resolution but the videos are only slightly higher than qvga for the standard video
nktpro, what Rom are you using (i want to test it)can you test this video: just search "gears of war mad world" you will get 1 minute that plays perfectly on my overclocked wizard but not on X1. thw x1 pic quality is *slightly* better due to its screen. overall the experiance is still better on the wizard due to the full frame rate
I watched the gears of war trailer and it run smooth on my x1, no lag at all. I thinki the internet connection might be your problem.
youtube by wifi is working fine. but use the htc youtube player NOT core player.
the core player is a very good program, but not the includet youtube browser.
the video quality is very poor. the same movies with htc youtube player, with high quali option set, is much better. its different like qvga to vga. and the picture is much clearer at all.
Use HTC youtube player. I watch youtube HD videos in full screen with max frame rate. No lags/slow downs whats so ever. Core player sucks at playing youtube videos.
i am using the htc you tube player.
if its playing perfectly (30fps) on many people machines then it must be my problem. im using rom (chalid 0.03) now.
what rom are you using i need to flash to something else to see if it helps

Also using HTC YouTube player on original french rom, no issue! it works so well ! I am really surprised when I see the number of complaints/concerns in the fourm ! I cannot believe them, My X1 is so perfect & no issue ! sometimes (not here), it fills trolls sender (ok, i am closing my out of subject...)

Nothing. Im running stock ROM. and all those tweaks and ati driver didnt improve the video playback at all btw, so i went back to default settings and tweaks. "If its not broken, dont fix it!"

Actually, I find that it plays back youtube videos quite smoothly through Opera on mine. Also, the youtube app has now become quite choppy during playback under the new R2 ROMS.
Youtube videos are a choppy with R2 only when downloading. After that they run pretty 'effin good! Before I could watch a movie while downloading and it would run pretty well. Now it runs MUCH smoother (almost with out any frame drops) but i have to wait until the download is finished. Otherwise it is laggy as all h3ll.
The high quality trailers such as "Iron Sky teaser", "X-men Origins: Wolverine HD trailer", and "Pixar's UP Trailer #2 HD" are what I have been using to test my Xperia's video capabilies. These run very very well, colors are great, and they fit our screen perfectly.
On R1 it ran great with all of the cahe maxed out. But I have been runing R2 with out touching ANY of the stock settings and it is running a little bit better.
so i just watch this video

how about atrix ? can it handle 720p in browser ?
Every YouTube video I try defaults to 360p and when I try to bring up the resolution selection, it appears for a split second and goes away. I can't even choose 720p!
I can use 720p on my vibrant
Sent from my Vibrant Running my own Rom using XDA Premium App
No the Atrix istn able to play ANY 720p youtube video without lagging on the net. You have to watch in 480p.
Tegra 2 istn capable of this.
Just played a bunch of 720p videos on youtube, all ran smooth and fast.
The only video that never played flash was some espn ones

Thats impossible. Tegra 2 isnt capable of decoding HP 720p youtube videos hardwarewise & it doesnt have to.
So i dont know which phone you have right now but its not the atrix..

That video played fine for me. Not sure what resolution it is pushing as the mobile site only says HQ.
Jeah mobile HQ youtube = 480p.
You have to play it directly in the stock browser.
Yeah those that have it "working" must be on the mobile youtube site. Embedded in the stock browser, it stutters pretty bad.
that and you get the "not optimized for mobile" message

I just tried it in the stock browser embedded. Not stuttering, its watchable, just not perfect perfect smooth.
I'm on Bell and using flash 10.1, not sure if that makes any difference.
Yea.... i dunno if the "Tegra 2 does not support it" statement is the greatest way to put it. It more than likely CAN play 720p video in the browser.... but i'm guessing it would need to be a browser with GPU-assisted rendering in order to be perfectly smooth playback.

Testing...
Ack, this is horrible! Oh wait, I thought it was stuttering. Then I saw it was just loading.
...10 minutes later (Hey AT&T, I think you forgot the 4G part on my Atrix 4G)
...
...
Now playing with video finally loaded:
A little stutter as it start playing, but smooth after the first 3 seconds....Opera 11 mobile browser.
For a while, I had both the Atrix and the Inspire. I loaded MotoBlur 1.1 on the Atrix and CM7 nightly on the Inspire (which OC'ed it to 1.5 Ghz). I tested various flash videos with both devices side by side running Dolphin Mini and Flash 10.2 over wifi.
Playback of 720p videos in the browser from sites like Devour.com were prefect and smooth on the 1.5 Ghz Inpsire. The same videos were almost unwatchable on the Atrix. I also noticed this when watching embedded video on pages filled with many clips (video section of Failblog for example). The same clip would be very choppy on the Atrix and the Inspire would play it smoothly.
I ended up keeping the Atrix because of battery issues with the Inspire (yes, I tried every trick in the book to optimize it). My time with both devices showed a fast, single core CPU results in much more "real life" performance than the dual core Atrix is capable of putting out.
Hopefully Flash and Android become better optimized for dual core processors.
Could it be froyo vs gingerbread thingi ? As i know ginger has some code optimise for flash but froyo is not.
Could also be the case. As we all know, there tends to be a pretty big difference from OS to OS..... take Eclair to Froyo for instance.
so i just did a pretty badass lagtest of the S2, pulled up 20 tabs, and played a video on all 20 tabs. not even the slightest hiccup, pinchzooming as smooth as a picture, no lag whatso ever, as smooth as going to google.com
had some stuff running in the background too, i didnt set up for this video at all.. original out of box stock rom.. totally unstoppable!
check out the video by yours truely~

To be fair that's probably more to do with BBC's shoddy application than it is flash or the phone. How else do you explain that other flash streaming works perfectly?

Smooth as butter. I watched a ton of 1080p videos off YouTube and megavideo.

loljk, idk maybe i should make a video of how many 1080p videos i can get and itll still be smooth.. wonder how many i would get oo
i wanna make a post or something where its just a whole page of embedded videos, so i dont have to do tabs, anyone got a forum they dont mind spamming with videos? ill make a cool video out of it!
That's because the ****heads at the BBC knows they'll be getting money from us every year regardless of the **** they produce. The TV licensing scheme is pure bull****, they should work for their keep like every other station.

are you watching them in desktop mode? were watching them from the webbrowser, not the app, and having desktop mode on, then click 1080p right where you normally see it on the website from your computer
I swear.. now that I've updated to Overcome 2.0.1 and I saw the browser had the option to change the User Agent, Flash 1080P actually plays back so nicely with the stock browser.
If you try to use Dolphin it becomes a stuttering buffering mess long before the stock browser will. That's not to say depending on the video the stock browser won't do the same but certain videos play much better with the stock browser.
Try it..
Sucks because so many people use Dolphin HD. It's the stock browser for me from now on. Haven't tried Opera Mobile but 11 also brings the ability to change the user agent.
Having problems with the Led torch app it's pretty laggy

theres definitely special sauce in the stock browser (HW acceleration).
its light years smoother than dolphin or miren.
good on samsung, now fix the broken layout (e.g. to call up bookmarks you need to press menu, then move your hand to top of the screen and press the bookmark button on top right, basically going a full diagonal, usability fail).

It's Vevo, right off of Youtube's servers. I can play pretty much any 1080P Youtube flash video I want. 1080P content plays smoothly. I just watched the Transformers Dark of the Moon trailer and it was completely smooth. Kelly Rowland - Motivation - smoothly... not sure what you're looking for here but my Galaxy Tab plays 1080P flash just fine with the stock browser. Dolphin HD has issues and it always shows the status/notification panel in full screen.
I tried looking at the video and it seemed more like the tab was video recording something else playing the desktop version of the video. The stock browser was denied when trying to watch the video with fourteen million views and said not allowed on mobile. I tried changing dolphin mini to desktop and watching the video but I couldn't select 1080. The popup kept disappearing when trying to go to a higher resolution.
Pull back on the camera and show it was actually a tab playing it. Show proof that it was playing at full 1080. My 2ghz dual core MacBook can't play that high without studdering and a computer CPU can run circles around the galaxy tab 7 horsepower wise. I call fake unless you can show absolute proof. Even if you gacked the 1080 video and played it in the default video player app or dice player, it would bog down because of too much processing power needed to play the video.

Are you SERIOUS right now?!
The Tab doesn't have stereo recording. My Sensation 4G does. Apple sucks the fat one at Flash playback. They don't have any HW acceleration last I checked and use crap like Intel GMA graphics. The mere fact that my Hummingbird Tab can flawlessly playback 1080P flash content and my $1800 Black Macbook can't is really just proof of how sad that is for my Macbook.
NonetheLESS.. there is a new video uploading that clearly shows that it's my Galaxy Tab playing the video and not something else.. damn. With Youtube. With me selecting 1080P. With 2 videos. I'm sure someone else will tell me it's all just an illusion.

Lower the volume because it gets pretty distorted at the :25 mark
Your lucky i guess, because i cant play anything over 480 on youtube, its choppy as on 720, and unplayable on 1080, maybe its a cm7 issue
